Sohan ? Who Is He?

"Heh Heh Right. I know. He didn't die. He's strong. He's...strong, isn't he?"

Selistina said while trying to act calm, but her tears already showed her broken heart.

Alix looks down after seeing her crying.

"Um? Why am I crying?"

Selistina said while touching her cheeks.

"He's alive. Right? Then why?"

Selistina mutters, then bursts into tears.

"Why...?"

She said this while wiping away her tears, which were streaming down her cheeks.

"He promised to never leave me, so why..."

She said while looking at her bed in sullen eyes.

Alix didn't say a word, but he lower his head and thought.

"Why...? Why, My Lord? Why?"

He didn't understand why this was happening. Why does their happily-going life turn into hell?

Selistina, as she was crying, remembered the time that she spent with him.

The day when she met him

The time when the King announced their wedding

The day when he showed his power to her

The promise that he made to her that,

"No matter what happens, I will always love you and stay by your side."

It was all broken into pieces. 

Selistina looked at her right palm as she asked.

"Who killed him?"

"Um !?"

Alix responded surprisengly after hearing that.

She look at Alix in anger. The murderous gaze is clearly seen in her eyes.

"Tell me..."

Alix steps back after seeing her murderous gaze.

"Who take him away from me?"

"Um..."

Alix hesitated.

Selistina was unconscious at the time when Sohan was fighting with Demise. That's why she didn't remember anything clearly.

It was the effect of Sohan's energy absorbing technique that Selistina didn't remember anything clearly. 

"Why are you silent?"

Selistina asked Alix in a confused voice.

"Well... I..."

Alix hesitated because, after seeing Selistina's rage, there was no doubt that she would go after Demise. That's why he's silent.

"Why are you silent now, huh?"

Selistina asked, while looking down in anger.

Alix looked at her in a little fright.

Selistina looked at him and asked in anger.

"TELL ME WHO TAKE HIM AWAY FROM ME!"

Alix sighed and said.

(Sigh) "Princess, you have to calm down-"

Alix said, but before he could finish his sentences, Selistina brust in anger and asked,

"Calm Down !?How can I be? Are you kidding me?"

She is mad after hearing about Sohan.

Alix sighed and said in a serious voice.

(sigh) "It was Demise."

Selistina freezes after hearing the name of the King of the Monster Clan.

"T-The King of Monster Clan...Killed...Sohan?"

Selistina said, widening her eyes in shock as she remembered when Sohan was about to fight Demise.

She looked down in despair and muttered, 

"Why did I even take him to that festival? Why?"

She loses herself in the grief of losing her love.

She smirked and said,

"Kihihihi, I killed him, didn't I? If I hadn't taken him to that festival, then that would never have happened and he would be with us right now. I'm a sinner. I don't want to live."

She then looked at Alix and said,

"Alix..."

"Princess."

Alix said while kneeling.

"Kill me please."

Selistina said with a wide smile.

She looks crazy, like she's not herself.

"What !?"

Alix responded shockingly.

"True. Maybe I'll meet Sohan too then."

Selistina said, then smiled gently while widening her eyes.

Alix didn't say a word, but was still kneeling down while looking down in despair.

He understands that Selistina is getting mad because of the death of Sohan.

Selistina smiled and said.

"Even if you hesitate to kill me, the King of the Monster Clan never will." 

Alix held his breath after hearing that.

As the tears started flowing out of her eyes, she said,

"And that idiot forgot to take me with him. Dummy."

Selistina said, with teary eyes and a smile on her face.

"Oh, Princess."

Alix mutters in a sad voice. He can't be able to see her like that. She used to smile and laugh. But her smile went away with Sohan.

She can't even smile without him now. She was deeply in love with him, but he's gone now. Sohan was the reason behind her happiness. But without him, how can she be happy? How can she even be able to smile wholeheartedly after the biggest loss of her life?

"But..."

Selistina mumbles.

"Huh ? What is it, Princess? "

Alix asked her while trying to hold back his tears.

"Where is..."

She mumbled.

Alix focused on her words as she completed them.

"...his corpse? "

Alix looked down after hearing that and said,

"It was destroyed by Demise's Ending Sun attack."

"What!?"

Selistina responded shockingly after hearing that.

 

The Ending Sun attack of Demise can totally destroy the target. That attack could not leave even a single trace. A huge asteroid that annihilates the target. That's his signature move. 

 

Selistina smirked and said,

"Kihi hihihihih. Now I can't even be able to look at him for the last time. What a bummer."

Then she look at Alix and said.

"You don't want to show this to me. That's why you wear a barrier around you to prevent Sohan's death, right?"

Alix look down in abash after hearing that. He is trying to solve the problem without much trouble but the death of Sohan is the biggest trouble for Light Shines.

Selistina sits on the bed while her knees are touching her chest. She lowers her head in despair and mutters.

"I don't want to live without him. He's my everything. I'm nothing with him."

She starts sobbing again.

Alix is unable to stop her. He felt bad on his own. 

Now he's regretting obeying the orders of the Almighty.

"Why didn't you help him?"

Selistina, while sobbing, asked him.

Alix looked panicked, but he said it without hesitation.

"Because my lord told me, not to help him. I can't be able to disobey his orders."

After hearing that, Selistina raised her head as she got an idea.

She looked at Alix and asked.

"Hold on! Sohan was reincarnated once, right?"

"Y-yeah."

Alix responded. He was afraid, not because Selistina asked him to revive him, but what if he told her that it was impossible to do so?

"So why don't you just-"

Selistina said, but before she could finish her sentences, Alix interrupted and said,

"I'm sorry."

"Huh ?"

Selistina responded surprisedly.

"B-But why ?"

She asked panickedly.

Alix lowered his head and said,

"My Lord always did what is right. If reviving him was not his consent, then he would never be revived. "

Alix explains in a heavy voice while trying to hold back his tears.

Selistina sobbed as she sat back down.

"Why? Does God have no emotions?"

She asked while lowering her head.

Alix smiles and said while hiding his eyes.

"Gods do have emotions, but my lord is not a God."

In a gentle tone, he said.

"What? W-What do you mean?"

After hearing that, Selistina responded in shock.

"My Lord is Almighty. The creator of everything and the gods are their subordinates, created by him. My lord created both humans and gods. But the only things that make both of them different are emotions and wisdom. Gods and humans both have wisdom and know about emotions. Gods can be able to control emotions, but humans can't. As for my lord, he's emotionless. Because emotions became a hindrance to his work. "

After hearing that, Selistina asked in a surprised voice.

"Then does that mean you're also?"

Alix smiled as he said.

"Yeah. I'm also a God."

"Then why don't you-"

Selistina asked, but before she could finish her sentences, Alix's eyes were seen by her.

She widened her eyes as she saw tears in his tears.

Alix smiles as he understands that she saw the tears of his eyes.

He wiped the tears from his eyes and said it in a gentle tone.

"What should I do about it? I'm a God but still cry at the death of a mortal. I feel the loss. That's why."

Selistina didn't say a word after seeing that.

She lowered her eyes and asked.

"Did my dad know about Sohan's death?"

"No."

Alix responded by lowering his head.

Selistina placed her palms over her eyes and said while crying,

"What should I do now? Sohan... Why?"

 

The door to her room is open. Someone knocked at the door.

"Um... Excuse me."

A familiar voice is heard.

Selistina and Alix look towards the door.

They widen their eyes and, unconsciously, a name comes out of their mouths.

"Sohan !"

 

"Huh ? Sohan? Who is he?"

He asked. In front of the door, a boy was standing, who had an uncanny resemblance to Sohan. 

He is 170 cm tall, has fair skin, a bit of muscle, and has straight black hair with silver eyes and bangs down his neck.

He's wearing a butler dress.

 

Selistina looked at him and, after realising, she said

"Hold on! You're not Sohan."

 

That boy showed a confused smile and said,

"Um... I don't know who that Sohan guy is."

"Then who are you?"

Selistina asked, confusingly.

After hearing that, that boy shows a gentle smile and said while bowing.

"It's nice to meet you, Princess. I'm your new butler."

"Huh !?"

Selistina responded surprisedly after hearing that.

That boy then looked towards Selistina and said

"And my name is Yan."
