Episode 17
After Edgar transformed back from being Clown Face to being himself before he succumbed to his death, his body was not in the right state and manner after being beaten and pumbled by Arthur his body was already weak and when he took the deal of receiving Limited Power from the Character Guide System, it was already too late.
Edgar's body lies dead and lifeless in the Dark World still releasing the face/mask essence his body bruised beyond recognition, burnt scars he received after falling into lava.
[Buzz! Character Guide System Accepts Character To Be Transported.]
His body weakening and decomposing into ashes all his ashes getting transported inside the Character Guide System.
Meanwhile in the mortal realm, everyone who was unconscious and knocked out regained their consciousness not sure what happened they just saw the barrier that kept Edgar and Banshee untouchable disappear and the circle that activated the barrier opened.
"My Queen wake up!" Melanie tried to wake up Ursula who was still unconscious after suffering an attack from Arthur or preferably Aslot.
"Mmmm...Mmmm... what happened?" She wakes up but from the scar on her head it's pretty clear to say that Ursula is even lucky to be still alive.
Melanie who was also feeling the affects of being pushed away by the barrier.
"I don't know but it looks like it's all over."
She tries to help Ursula get up on her feet.
Meanwhile, the soulless body of Edgar was just sitting there and hasn't moved ever since, both Ursula and Melanie don't notice him but Leviticus, does notice him.
He decides to get up and go check up on the Prince, it wasn't going to be that obvious to see that Edgar had passed on because he was facing the other side for some reason. His body shifted.
"My Prince, are you okay?" Leviticus puts his hand around Edgar's shoulder.
The position that Edgar was sitting in made it look like he was still alive, why is that? Because even after Edgar died in the Dark World, his body in the mortal realm remained alive for a few more minutes.
Though it looked like he was still alive something was still different and off about the young Prince he seemed different, and not the obvious fact that he was dead and gone not that obvious. Edgar had changed and became a bit taller than before when he went to the reading.
Leviticus unsure what's so different about him, "My Queen and Master is it me or has the Prince changed since he went to the Dark World?"
These two Ursula and Melanie didn't take it to head about what Leviticus was saying, maybe it was because they believed that he was overreacting. Most of the times whenever he saw Edgar he'd say to him that he did grown a few inches.
"Okay, enough playing around my Prince to stand up." Leviticus trying to make Edgar come out from wherever his mind was floating.
Young Prince? My prince! My prince!" Calling Edgar just so he can respond and show that he was okay was something that anyone who had just experienced something like this to say something to show they are still okay.
Ursula kept hearing Leviticus calling for Edgar's name and that kinda pissed her off!
"Why are you keep calling his name like that? He's right there with you!
Knowing what he has done Leviticus humbles himself and shows respect and remorse for his actions and apologized, Melanie who knew that Leviticus wouldn't call out Edgar's name so much without no good reason.
So she decides to go and see what is the fuss about, ashamed by being reprimanded and scorned by Ursula. Leviticus takes a step back.
"Don't worry and thank you Leviticus you can go I can take it from here." Melanie dismissed him.
"Yes my master." Leviticus steps away and goes to stand next to Ursula.
Melanie walks towards Edgar from behind, hoping to scare him out from whatever he was thinking.
"Hey buddy! Time to go for a lesson!" She joked around.
Hearing that to Edgar was like hearing the end of his life, because he would often throw tantrums and try to come up with elusive excuses not to go and do any kind of work.
But this time it was different there was no response and reaction from Edgar it was like he was deaf or something.
"Edgar buddy are you okay?" Melanie now worried.
Something in Melanie changed as she got even closer to check up on Edgar, something was definitely off and what Leviticus was saying did make sense now.
Just as when she was about to turn Edgar around Ursula interrupted her.
"Wait? Where is the demon?"
"What did you just say my Queen?" Leviticus checked.
"Where is the demon, you know the one who came to do the reading." Ursula reminded Leviticus.
That's when Leviticus's mind came back and remembered everything the demon that Ursula was asking about was Banshee, who by the way was nowhere to be seen anywhere near Edgar.
Sensing that something is wrong, "Please excuse me my Queen!" Leviticus just rushed over to Melanie and Edgar.
"What is it Leviticus?" Melanie looks at Leviticus who is now circling around them looking for something.
Clearly whatever Leviticus is looking for is not around to be seen, "Leviticus, what the hell is going on!" Melanie continued to insist.
Finally Leviticus sees something and he checks it out, what he found did make him feel uneasy and restless he was now touching the ashes of Banshee, that were leading all the way to Edgar's knees.
He followed the ashes trail and that's when he saw Edgar and realised what had happened, to avoid saying anything that would alarm Ursula. Leviticus just stared at him quietly.
Melanie knowing what kind of person Leviticus is she shared a telepathic link only they can hear.
'My master?' Leviticus sensing that someone has linked his brain.
"Okay I know you and I know something is wrong so tell me what is going on.' Melanie asked.
Leviticus cleared his throat, 'I don't even know how to put this, my master. But... But... But'
'But what? Speak god damnit!' Melanie being impatient.
'Master... The young Prince is no longer with us' Leviticus not even sharing eye contact.
Melanie was shocked when she heard this, she had no idea what the hell was Leviticus was talking about Edgar was breathing and she saw him breathe on her own.
'What are you on about? How can he not be with us anymore? I mean you are looking at him breathe.' Melanie tries to make her statement.
'Yes, and I see that he is indeed breathing but this kind of breathing is only temporary and this kind of breathing is an indication showing signs that one's soul or spirit is dead the only thing left is the shallow body living out few of it's final moments. Normal humans call this Final Moments.' Leviticus explained.
To Ursula everything seemed so perfectly fine, she just assumed that maybe they were just helping him up but she couldn't be more wrong. Something did tell her that something was indeed wrong but as a parent who doesn't want to lose her only son. She chose to ignore it.
"Is everything okay?" Ursula asked.
Both Melanie and Leviticus looked at her trying to hide their pain and sorrow, "Yes my Queen everything is okay." Melanie lied.
That gave Ursula a bit of hope but still something did tell her something was definitely wrong and as much as she didn't want to except the truth, she just couldn't shake the feeling.
Ursula wasn't the only one who was fearing for her life Melanie was too, and it didn't make it any easier to accept the fact that the Heir of the Matter House has passed, she was so desperate to try anything and everything to make sure what Leviticus was saying isn't true but false.
'There must be a way for us to save him! There's no way he'll die like this.' Melanie tries to save him.
She performed so many resuscitation methods that she could think off and know off, but nothing seemed to be working. Edgar was just lying there unresponsive.
'Master, there's nothing you can do he is gone.' Leviticus stops Melanie from trying and failing to save someone who is already dead.
She gets all teary and her tears drop on Edgar's face who is just sleeping and not feeling anything, Ursula has had enough of not knowing what is happening with her child.
She decides to join the others, upon her arrival the state she saw her son was not something any parent should ever experiencing.
Edgar was barely even recognisable and again it wasn't because of his newly growth spurt, that wasn't it. Edgar was unrecognisable because of the state he was in, he was burnt all over his body; his skin was cooked the scars and beatings he suffered thanks to Aslot they were visible but the burns hid them well.
And another thing his internal organs were destroyed.
"No, no, no, noooo!" Ursula pushes Melanie away from her son and hold him in her arms, busy trying to talk him back to life.
"No, baby, no please don't leave us yet I'm sorry that I let you go with Banshee, just please do not leave us this soon. We love you, I love you!.
Ursula was shedding uncontrollable tears holding tight on her son, who she deeply believe was going to be okay. But right after she said the last two sentences 'We love you, I love you!
Edgar took one final breath and finally died in the mortal realm too.
