Summary: I never feel so useless and miserable like this before? A side story of 'Puff of Lime'.


Hi everybody. This is chapter 2 of this story. I hope you like this chapter.


"Never apologize for showing your feelings. When you do, you are apologizing for the truth."
José N. Harris, MI VIDA


Previous Chapter. Her Weakness.

"All right, I got it, I will do the destroying part, while Yuber does the killing part, since that what he like so much." She stated.

"Oh, thank you, my dear, to give me such honour." Yuber stated.

"You're welcome." She said with sarcasm. "Well, can you do me a favour in return?"

"What is it?" Yuber asked.

"Don't come out until my signal."

"Fine by me."

I raised my eyebrows at their interaction. It was strange to see them talking like an old friend instead of killing each other. I guessed this was why Yuber sealed her feeling. I might be dead otherwise.

Chapter 2. Their Tragic End.

SY 481.

The attack at Caleria was a success. I expected as much. What I did not expect was the numbers of casualty. It was lower than I expected.

I never told Yuber about my suspicious of her, because I did not really care about this war. If I let Yuber have his fun then this war would last a long time. Even I do not like to start a useless war.

I decided to confront her. I wait until Yuber left than entered her room. I observed her emotionless face.

"I know if Yuber didn't seal your feeling, your emotionless face will turn to hateful when you see me now," I remarked.

"You know Albert, whatever your reason is. I will definitely kill you someday."

I approached her and took a seat before her.

"I know. I heard you were seen with Caesar. How was he?"

"He saved, some Alma Kinan girls save him from death. At least that's a good thing for me."

"What is your plan?" I finally asked.

"So, you realized I have a plan."

"It strange, that you just surrender to Yuber, even let him seal your feeling."

"I have to make sure I won't gain his suspicious."

"Then, what is your plan?"

"I can't tell you, but, I can tell that this war won't last long."

I left and contemplated what she said. I honestly also wanted this war to be short. I hope my decision to not stop her would not result in my death.

The next day we were having a meeting again about our next move.

"Our next move is to attack Crystal Valley," I said.

She looked surprised. "Really! Aren't we moving too fast?"

I raised my eyebrows at her in questioning. I thought she wants this war to be short.

"What do you think, Yuber?" I turned to him.

"I don't really care. There will be so much chaos for me to enjoy." He smirked.

"Well, if that is your plan then I don't really care." She stood up. "I am going out."

I raised my eyebrows. "Where are you going?"

She raised her eyebrows. "I still have a life, you know, besides being your tool." And she left.

I turned to Yuber. "Are you going to let her leave?"

He shrugged. "Why not? She will come back, won't she?"

"Yes, she will come back."

Actually, I was not sure if she will really come back. I seriously thought that she ran away. But, she did come back wearing her outfit as the masked magician. I raised my eyebrows at her.

"What did you do?" I asked.

"Carrying out my plan." She said nonchalantly.

"Can you elaborate?"

"Of course not. Your knowing isn't a part of my plan." And she left to her room.

I looked at her back. I almost forgot she was the daughter of a tactician. She will definitely find a way to get out of Yuber's grasp. Thankfully, Yuber was not here to hear our conversation.

The next day, I called Yuber and asked him to call her to a meeting. This meeting was to discuss the detail about the next attack on Crystal Valley. Yuber just came back from calling her. After a while, she showed up.

"You sure took your time, young lady." Yuber commented.

She ignored Yuber and stood in front of us. I looked at her amusedly.

I remarked. "I wonder why Caesar never saw the similarity between you and..."

She cut in. "Enough. Don't bring that up again."

"Well, how you dress up right now, really remind me about her." Yuber stated.

She ignored him and spoke to me. "Is there anything new with the plan?"

"Nothing new, we still continued with the plan to attack Crystal Valley," I answered.

"Don't you think we made a rush about it?" The girl commented.

"Anything fine by me. As long as there is chaos." Yuber stated.

"Yeah, and to fulfil your desire, I have to end up here with both of you, which is not pleasant at all." She remarked.

"Will you stop whining?" Yuber said nonchalantly.

"After this, I will definitely kill you." She pointed at me. "And destroy you." She pointed at Yuber.

Yuber laughed. "Surely, my dear."

"All right, enough with this useless meeting, I will be in my room if you need me." She stormed out from the room.

I raised my eyebrows at the door. She seemed to be in a bad mood.

{G~S~III}

Today was the day of the next attack. She had gone ahead in the morning followed by Yuber. I was sitting in my room while waiting for the news. I felt unusually anxious about this attack. When Yuber came back in the afternoon, he did not say anything. He looked to be in a bad mood. Was the attack failed?

I waited until midnight and she still did not come back. I concluded that she was captured or ran away, which explained Yuber's mood. He just lost his toy after all.

The next day, I was sitting across Yuber in the meeting room.

"What do you plan to do now?" I asked.

"It wouldn't be fun with just the two of us. I am not in the mood anymore." He said.

"Are you saying we will stop?"

"At least until she comes back." He said.

I raised my eyebrows. I seriously doubt she will come back at all.

"What if she didn't come back?" I asked.

"I guess I will find chaos anywhere else." He said.

"If that's what you want. I have some good news for you." I said.

Yuber grinned. "Really!" It seemed I just improved his mood.

"Harmonia will attack Toran some years later," I informed him.

His grin widened and laughed maniacally.

"All right then Albert. Let's meet again later." And he's gone.

I clenched my fists in anger. I would never be able to escape from his grasp. You are lucky, Amiyah.

{G~S~III}

Few days after Yuber left, I went to Crystal Valley to find out what happened to her. After I arrived there I finally know that she was captured and was going to be executed. I was seriously shocked.

At the day of her execution, I watched as the executioner end the life of the girl whose life I made suffered. Her death was practically my responsibility. I turned to leave only find a glimpse of someone I recognize. I walked to the entrance of the city and there I saw him.

He stood there as still as a statue and as pale as a corpse.

What was Caesar doing here?

I watched as he left the city to Marid's direction with a blank expression. I looked at his figure until he vanished. Then, I walked to my next destination.

I walked to the Circle Palace, fortunately, the guards still recognize me to let me in. Then, I walked toward the office of my former employer.

In front of the office, I was greeted by a glare.

"Albert! What are you doing here." He demanded.

"I merely want to speak with my former employer," I stated.

"You can't just meet Lord Sasarai as you please." He protested.

"I know, but I am sure, Lord Sasarai can't be that busy to decline my request."

"Lord Sasarai is busy, now leave."

"What makes you so damn loud, Dios?"

I stared at the girl who just exited the office. My eyes widened at seeing her similarity with the girl that was supposed to be dead just now. But, here I was staring at her very face.

She caught me staring at her and glared at me. But, before I could say anything, the door opened to reveal Sasarai.

"Well, what are you waiting for, Amy, you should..." Sasarai stopped when he noticed my presence.

No one spoke for a while until the girl decided to break the silence.

"I will be on my way, Master Sasarai." She then left.

Sasarai looked at me intensely. "You may enter, Albert."

I entered the office and observed Sasarai's movement. He sat and motion to me to sit as well.

"How may I help you?" Sasarai asked politely. But somehow I could trace bitterness in his voice.

"I just want to know what happened, especially about the masked magician," I answered him.

"She's dead, don't you see her execution?" Sasarai said nonchalantly.

"Yes, then, why I saw she was just exiting your office alive and well," I asked.

He raised his eyebrows. "Albert, although she looks just like the masked magician, it doesn't mean she is the same person."

"Don't you feel it's strange, how I knew the masked magician's face?" I added. "And for the fact, she also has the same name with her. It was a pure coincidence when a different person either have the same name or face, but I don't think it was a coincidence when a different person both have the same name and face."

Sasarai sighed. "What can I do to seal your mouth?"

"Don't worry about my mouth, not a word will come out about her. The truth is I am glad she is alive." I stated.

"Can I trust you?" Sasarai narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, you can. Although I know it's hard, considering I had betrayed you before."

"Then, what do you want?" Sasarai inquired.

"I just want to know what happened during the war."

Sasarai raised his eyebrows.

"Since me, Yuber and her team up, I don't really know what happened during the attack that I planned. I just thought it went well because Yuber seemed to be enjoying it. But, I feel suspicious of her. I mean, I always thought she won't be cooperating considering she was forced to do it. Well, I know Yuber sealed her feeling, but I was expecting something to go wrong, I expected her to have a plan." I explained.

"So, Albert, why did you start the war in the first place?" Sasarai asked.

"I was forced, nothing I gain from this war," I told him honestly.

"Well, you're right. She indeed did something to your plan. It's only a small change so Yuber won't notice, well, clearly you seem to notice." Sasarai started.

"What's change?" I asked.

"She told me that she will attack Crystal Valley, that time I couldn't figure out why she did that. I didn't believe that she was just being arrogant. Well, now I understand why she wanted us to have a good preparation so we can kill her. That was her plan, to die by our hands." Sasarai explained.

I thought about it.

So she tried to escape Yuber by death.

"Well, her death was to fool everyone including Yuber. She decided to keep on living because she still has something to do." Sasarai added.

"Thank you for your information. I would like to inform you that before I came here, I told Yuber, Harmonia will be at war with Toran sooner or later. Yuber seemed to get exciting by it and left. Perhaps, he will appear at that time." I informed him.

"Well, you're right, I also feel that the war is coming," Sasarai stated.

"Well then, I will excuse myself." I got up to leave.

"Take care of Caesar, Albert," Sasarai stated.

I stared at him with confusion. "What's about Caesar?"

"This war affects him so much."

"I don't understand." Yes, seriously, where was he going on?

Sasarai tilted his head to the left. "This might sound absurd, but you have to believe me about it. Although I didn't hear it directly from their mouth, it was obvious."

"What is it about?" I said impatiently.

"Caesar and Amy are in love with each other." Sasarai turned to look at me directly, there was seriousness in his voice.

I stood there with wide eyes. I could not believe what I heard. "Did he know?"

"If you mean is about her being alive, no. And I don't think Amy will tell him, she is too concerned about him to make him get involved in her dangerous life. Also, they don't even know both of them to have the same feeling." Sasarai explained.

I stared at him while hearing him telling the story about the girl and my brother as if I was reading a tragic romance novel. If not because of this tragic ending, I will be amused by the fact that my brother was falling in love, and admit that he was not that lazy boy anymore.
