Ok, some of you might've guessed how the light ending will looks like from the Dark ending (And my common story plot!)
Thanks for reviews/comments/faves/follows!
Eli sighed weakly,
Sheesh, this girl…. So complicated…. I really can't choose this kind of thing… I really don't want a blood bath….
Eli said in her mind. She stare into Nozomi and Meg's eyes… they looks like they're really expecting her to say something. Eli sighed again,
I wonder what Nozomi think about these choices…I mean like, for real….
Eli said again in her mind.
"Nozomi, come closer for a bit… We need to talk…" Eli said.
Nozomi approached her closer, then Eli embraced her and cover themselves with her wings. They began to talk with sign language with each other,
"What do you think about these choices…?" Eli said with sign language,
"They sound ok for me… I mean, you know we will win either way…" Nozomi replied with sign language as well.
"I mean, which one would you prefer?"
"I'd like to have the blood and find Lilith later… because, we can do something with that blood…" Nozomi smiled mischievously. For some reason Eli could feel something a little different in her eye glance as well…though she kept quiet about it.
I don't like how her smile and eye glance looks… it feels like she is somewhat suggesting me to do something wicked…
Eli thought.
Even though the Nozomi that I knew is always kind and understanding…
Eli said again.
Should I go with her choice…..?
She said again as she stare into Nozomi's eyes.
[No…I shouldn't.]
Something is wrong and I shouldn't just agree to her!
"I'm sorry, Nozomi, but let's go with the other choice, ok?" Eli said. Nozomi looks a little disappointed.
"Meg, let's duel…" Eli said as she turned around,
Meg surprised to hear it.
"I can't just let you eat her, Lilith must've someone else she want to—…"
"Ericchi!" Nozomi cuts in before Eli could finish her words.
"Nozomi? What's wrong?" Eli turned to her.
"Did you love her more than me?" Nozomi said.
"W-what? No…of course not, it just that—…"
"...then why did you choose to give her wish? What about me? I want an eternal youth…and that is my wish…. Grant it! Because I'm still your queen, right?" Nozomi said.
"N-Nozomi, listen, Lilith is dead and she is stuck in—…"
"Why do you care about her more than me? Am I not enough for you?"
"No...Nozomi, it's nothing like that…" Eli said.
"Ericchi…. I'm jealous…can you tell?"
"I…I can see that Nozomi…"
"Then why do you want to grant Lilith's wish but not mine?" Nozomi demanded,
Eli is close to lost her words, she is about to say something but…
"That's a lot of trouble you have there, Eli, to own an obsessive girlfriend like her…. I'll help you out…" Meg said.
"W-what?" Eli flustered.
"You want to duel with me for the blood, right? Then duel me…. I'll crush you in one hit…" Nozomi said
"Bring it on…" Meg said.
"W-w-wait! Wait! Don't! Meg! You don't stand a chance!" Eli said as she quickly stands between them. But before Eli could actually do anything, Nozomi dashed—passing through her and about to land her fist to Meg— Meg quickly attempted to shoot her with her gun but Nozomi quickly change to grab her gun and crushed it in one hit.
"H-Harasho…" Eli said.
"Don't just harasho, call for help!" Meg said.
"W-what?"
"Your friends, are they here too? Call them!" Meg said as she tried to dodge from Nozomi's attack.
"No-no, you do that, they're just upstairs… I'll hold her…" Eli said.
"Got it…" Meg said before she quickly transformed into her succubus form and flew away.
"That was quick!" Eli said.
Nozomi is about to chase after her but Eli quickly grabs her.
"You're not going anywhere until you listen to me, Nozomi!" Eli said.
Nozomi tried to escape from her—but surprisingly, Eli could hold her from doing so. Nozomi keep struggling to get out as she roars crazily.
"Nozomi! Stop it!" Eli said.
Nozomi still struggling.
"You were asking if I love you or not, right? Then I tell you what? I do! But I prefer to love the Nozomi that I knew in the past, not an obsessive wild girl like you!" Eli yelled.
Nozomi stopped.
"Nozomi…" Eli called her gently. Nozomi transformed back to her human form.
"Ericchi…" Nozomi called her back.
"Calm down, ok? Even though I will love you no matter how you are… it's still better for me if you stay as who you were in the past… Because that's the Nozomi I fell in love with…." Eli said.
"But…Ericchi… aren't you afraid to lose me? Because… even though I might be growing slower…. I'll be still growing older and dying….I don't want to leave Ericchi alone…" Nozomi said.
"Listen, Nozomi…. that's how human life are… you are already getting past them in your current state, you don't need eternity to be with me…" Eli said.
"I want to be loved by Ericchi for Eternity…" Nozomi said.
"I will, but we don't have to be physically together to make it happen…. Either it will be me or you first… we'll be forever be in love with each other… as long as…" Eli put her hand on Nozomi's chest.
"You promise to embrace the feeling you have in your heart….and to hold them dear…." Eli said.
Nozomi stunned as she heard it.
"It should be enough, right?" Eli said.
Nozomi shook her head,
"No… it's not enough…. I want everything about you… I want you…" Nozomi said as she turned around to Eli.
"Nozomi… listen up, I'm happy that you are obsessing over me but… this is for the sake of yourself… stop it… don't let it consume you…" Eli said.
"Can't you tell? I really wanted you…and this is your fault for being so charming…I want you to dominate me forever… I want you to pleasure me…." Nozomi's eyes began to glow,
What's this…? Something is trying to make me bend to her will—she can't be having a charm skill, right?
Eli said in her mind.
More importantly though, even if she does… why is it able to penetrate my magic barrier? Does she have the same charm with me…?
She said again. Nozomi's eyes glowing brighter,
No…No… I must not give in to her charm… I must not be agreeing to her! I'm the only one who can stop this madness.
Eli quickly shoved her down,
"Magic, Madness, Heaven, Sin, I can show you incredible things…" Eli casted her spell as she glare back into Nozomi's eyes—Eli tried to resist the charm that Nozomi somehow able to cast.
Fortunately, Eli won it. Nozomi fell unconscious at instant.
"Harasho…" Eli said as she grabs Nozomi to her embrace.
That was scary….. didn't expect her to have it…. but...how does it even happen? She isn't a succubus to begin with…
Eli said in her mind.
Ah well, now that she is in her dream world… I should hurry up to find out what's happening to her…
Eli said again in her mind as she lifts her on her embrace.
Suddenly, Meg, Maki, Umi, and Honoka came in,
"Eli-chan! Nozomi-chan!" Honoka shouted first.
"Ah, Eli…Nozomi… I'm glad I'm still seeing you being this peaceful…" Umi said.
"Nozomi doesn't looks well though, is she alright?" Maki asked.
"There's something wrong with her, I need to figure it out…" Eli said.
"Something wrong?" Honoka wondered.
"Maybe it's something about her years? You know she is close to the time when she will soon become fully an alpha…" Maki said.
"You're right…she is…" Eli said.
"Then, why don't we all go to my mansion to meet Lilith? She might know something about it…" Meg said.
"Eh? I thought you were saying you want me to duel you first…?" Eli asked.
"You already won the battle long ago, Eli… we don't need to do that again…" Meg said.
"Meg…." Eli said in awe.
"Skip the drama, let's just move…" Meg said.
Bathory estate, dusk;
Meg allowed them to come in at will, Eli is carrying Nozomi on her arms as she walks in behind the others, Eve walks the fastest.
As they arrived to a door with flowery scent, Meg gestured to them to stop and she said,
"Before you came in, I want to assure you, I'm not her killer…Leon did… and she knows about it as well…so—…"
"Just skip that and let us in…." Eve cuts in.
Meg remained quiet for a moment as she fixes her glasses.
"Very well…"
She opened the door for everyone. Everyone walks in with Eve leading the line— they all could see Lilith laying down on the bed,
"Lilith-chan…" Kotori called her sadly as she ran to the bed.
"Lilith…" Maki called her sadly too.
Eli remained quiet as she saw her, though she gave her a very sad looks on her eyes. Lilith open her eyes very slowly,
"Kotori-chan? Maki-chan?" she called them back.
And before anyone could do anything, Eve already took all the edge of the bedcover— then she warped Lilith's body with them.
"E-Eh? Eve? What are you doing nya?" Rin asked.
"This goof head—need a damned kick!" Eve said before she kicks Eve away from the bed.
"W-wh-aaa!" Everyone went panic.
"Eve! She is dead! How could you—?!" Eli said a little panic.
"I knew she is dead! So what?! She needs a damned kick and I know her best!" Eve shouted at Eli.
Everyone remained quiet until they could hear a chuckle coming out from Lilith that warped in bedcover.
"That's the Eve that I know… I'm glad I still could feel that kick… not literally, but still it's a kick with a thump to the floor…." Lilith said.
Everyone still quiet…they don't know what to say.
"Now…will you put me back to the bed? I need to say something to everyone… I can't be saying it with my ass on top like this…" Lilith said.
"Joke all you want! I won't putting you back on the bed!" Eve yelled as she turned away from Lilith.
"I'm not joking, my ass is literally on top right now…" Lilith said.
"Someone, put her back…" Eli said.
Umi and Maki nodded, they went to Lilith's body and lift her back to the bed.
"Hnn…can you uncover my face too?" Lilith asked. Umi did it for her.
"Thank you… it's troublesome when you're dead…" Lilith said.
"Uh… I would say that's the silliest sentence I ever heard...but… seeing your condition…" Maki bit her lips.
Lilith chuckled,
"There, Maki-chan… you need to praise my deep words for once…"
"That's very deep…yeah…" Maki sighed.
Lilith changed her focus to Eve.
"Eve, look at me, will you?" Lilith said.
"Why would I want to look at a goof-face like you? If you want to disappear then go on! I don't care!" Eve yelled.
"Really? I'm a horned worm now… I look amazing… look at me will you?"
"No! Goof face! Get lost!" Eve yelled again, her face is all red, she is trying to hold herself to not cry.
"I won't before you look at me…" Lilith said.
"Then I won't do it until you said your farewell to everyone here! They're all coming all the way here to see you… don't just disappoint them…" Eve said.
"Then… I'll start from… hmm… Umi-chan! Since you're the one who let me see…" Lilith said.
"Eh? Me?" Umi flustered.
"Yes, you… I want to say farewell to you first, but I want to know if you have anything you want to talk to me before I'm gone…" Lilith said.
"Uhm…well…I found your note….in that abandoned factory…. Can you, explain it simply about what this actually is…?" Umi asked.
"It's a note…and that's about it…" Lilith said.
"That's….very helping…thank you…" Umi said.
Lilith chuckled,
"There, don't be too serious… I'm joking…. But in all honesty, it is just a note and nothing more… you can read it—but maybe the only important thing you need to know about is… Leon is my biological children with a human… he doesn't inherit my demon blood… so he is just…a human…." Lilith said.
"Eh? I haven't read it, but did you mention it somewhere inside here?" Umi asked.
"No, I treat him like an adopted child…because his father doesn't want to admit him as his son— he escaped after I had that baby… I don't want him to wonder where his father is—and to know that he is a very irresponsible guy… so I told him, both of his parents are dead from protecting him in the cold, and I pick him up from the street…" Lilith said.
"Oh… I…see…."
"It's better to know that you're adopted than having a parents who doesn't know how to be responsible… after all, parents are always have to be a role model for their child, am I right?" Lilith smiled,
"I suppose so… hmm…these…kind of family stuff make me feel strange…" Umi said.
"I've heard about your family, Umi-chan… you're tough… you shouldn't be too paranoid with everyone though… especially your friends, because after all, they are still supporting you, right?" Lilith said.
"Yes…you're right…thank you…" Umi said a little shyly.
"Promise me you will stop being so paranoid…" Lilith said.
"Will do…" Umi said.
"Now, next person…. Hmm…Hanayo-chan! Since you've been trying to hold your tears so hard!" Lilith giggled.
"Eh-h?! Uhmm…I'm not ready!" Hanayo said.
"I know you're not, but that's where the fun is…" Lilith giggled.
"Uuuhh…" Hanayo started to get nervous.
"Relax, Hanayo-chan! It's not an interview…" Lilith said.
"O-Okay!" Hanayo said nervously.
Lilith giggled.
"I think there's nothing I could say about you… you're simply pure and kind—and brave! You're overcoming your own fear by learning how to communicate and forcing yourself in the crowd you always feared of… that's really cool, you know…" Lilith said.
"It is?"
"Yup, it is… I know you got so many peoples bashing over you from your fame, those heartless haters—but don't give up, Hanayo-chan! Don't stop showing yourself to the world, but remember to stay true… people loves the nervous Hanayo-chan, it's cute! Don't just step down because you're called as amateur by others!"
"H-how do you know?" Hanayo asked.
"Hmm…how? Well, one of my boyfriend is your haters… he always rants when you show up in the TV. He is just an epic fail man who can't get famous… because his way of representing things are always dull and boring…no TV station wanted him." Lilith said.
"I…I see…."
Lilith giggled,
"That's about it… hmm…I'll go with Rin-chan next, since you're always next to Hanayo-chan!" Lilith said.
"Yes-nya?" Rin said.
Lilith giggled,
"Rin-chan want to be a police-nya? I like that-nya!" Lilith said mimicking Rin's accent.
"Ah, Lilith-chan is so good-nya!" Rin said with a wry smile.
"he-he-Lilith is not that good-nya, Lilith just know things-nya…" Lilith replied.
"No-nya! Lilith-chan is so good-nya!" Rin said.
"No-nya!" Lilith replied playfully.
"Yes-nya!" Rin said.
"No-nya!"
"Yes-nya!"
They keep going on with it, Eve clenched her fist and threw her shoes to Lilith's head,
"Stop playing, goofball! How long you want to be stuck in that body?!" Eve yelled before she turned away from her.
Lilith giggled,
"Alright-nya, since Eve is being eager-nya, I just want to say good-luck-nya…. You're good as who you are already, Rin-chan… you don't need to change-nya…." Lilith said.
"Ok-nya… I'll remember it nya!" Rin forced a smile.
Lilith giggled again,
"Now, next, Niko-chan!" Lilith turned to Niko who have been crying like a waterfall.
"What?!" she said.
"Niko-chan the super idol…don't give up that career because you're only seen as kid's idols…ok?"
"W-what…."
"And you don't need to wear sexy dresses too…it will ruin your image as kid's idols…" Lilith said.
"T-The heck?" Niko said.
"Good luck with being super idols for kids... alright, next, Kotori-chan!" Lilith said.
"W-what the hell?! That's it?!"
"Shush you, Niko-chan! Lilith is going to talk to me…" Kotori said.
"Wait a sec? Why am I only getting a short—…"
"Niko-chan!" Kotori pouts at her.
"F-fine!" Niko pouts back.
Lilith giggled,
"That's just a tease… but anyway, Kotori-chan…How's business…?" Lilith asked.
"It's going well… I hope that you will stay longer— you're one of the best model in town…" Kotori said.
"I'm sorry, I can't….besides, I actually have so many scandals, you know… it just that none of them actually leaked in media because I charmed everyone who comes to interview me about it…" Lilith said.
"Is that so?"
"Yes, it is so…."
"but still… you're a gold… I can't believe I'll lose you…" Kotori said.
Lilith giggled,
"You can have a diamond… just look at Eve, she really looks like me—except she is prettier… and a virgin… humans value them so much, right?"
Kotori nodded weakly. She is about to cry, but she tried to not to.
"Why would I want to replace you…goof head… I'm not into fashion…" Eve said.
"I still have a few appointments with a few peoples, you should check them out, Eve… I don't want to break my promise…"
"I'll just announce your death instead…less troubles…" Eve said.
"Hmmmn….that will disappoint them, no?" Lilith said.
"It's better that way… besides, you want Leon to face the true justice, right? We need a proof that you're died from his act…" Eve said.
"Uhn… honestly, he is just a clueless boy, don't be that harsh to him…"
"You're spoiling him… from long ago… you always give him what he wants—you treat him like a king… now look what he has done to the world… he corrupted them… because he wants to be the true king…"
Lilith smiled wryly,
"I'm not going to do what you tell me to do just because you're dying… because that's not how love works…" Eve said.
Eli took a notice to that.
"Then… I'll leave that to you, Eve… and for Kotori-chan, of course, you're the kindest manager ever...but don't lose any discipline, ok? You need that…" Lilith said.
"Got it!" Kotori replied as she nodded.
"Then now…. Honoka-chan!" Lilith said.
"Yes!" Honoka replied energetically—she is also holding a cry.
"That's the spirit! Once again, Honoka-chan!"
"Yes!"
"That's a good spirit, Honoka-chan… I like it…" Lilith said.
"Thanks!"
Lilith giggled.
"Does it feel weird to you to not be able to turn into your form?" Lilith asked.
"E-eh? Well…I never did…so…no…."
"Then I guess the errors are just already flowing into your blood…right? So you don't actually need to be cured…" Lilith said.
"If there's one word that can describe Honoka, then that would be an 'error'…" Umi said.
"That's cruel, Umi-chan!"
Lilith giggled,
"But it's true, Honoka is an 'error', not a 'cure'…" Lilith said.
"Lilith-chan! You're teasing me!"
"Didn't you heard her? It's not a tease, it's a fact…" Umi said.
"Ahh! You two are so cruel! I can be a cure too, ok?" Honoka said.
Lilith giggled again,
"I'm sure you will… soon enough after everyone around here realized that you kept your Chimera power and removing your animal trait by creating an error to your blood…." Lilith said.
They all remained quiet…
"Wow…I…I didn't realize that until you mention it!" Umi said.
"Y-yeah…. You're brilliant, Lilith…"
Lilith chuckled,
"The only side effect is just that you can't unleash your full power just like when in Chimera form… and you will still need sleep…" Lilith said.
"That will still be enough…" Umi said.
"Not quite, especially if you're facing an alpha… but speaking of alphas… that kind of method won't work with an Alpha Werewolf… you know who I meant.." Lilith said as she turned to Nozomi who's still asleep on Eli's arm.
"Are you not tired, Elichika?" Lilith asked.
"I'm fine, I can carry her all day if I want…" Eli said.
Lilith smiled faintly,
"You really loves her, no matter what corruption that lives inside her… right?" Lilith said.
"Yes…. I've known her for long, I know she changes a lot…but… I can't just tell her to go back to her previous self…I mean….as long as she is happy…" Eli said.
"Elichika, the more you spoil her, the bigger the corruption grow…I think I've said this before but as an alpha, she would start to grow a few negative traits as one… just like, being selfish, jealous, greedy, lustful and aggressive. But at the other side, she would also grow a few other positive traits such as, loyal, protective, loving, responsible, and caring to the one she loves… I know you don't want to treat her badly, but if you spoil her that much—she will more likely to be a very big burden to you, and a very big trouble for the others…" Lilith explained.
"Then it was my fault that she becomes…this obsessive…?" Eli asked.
"Pretty much… but anyway, I can see something small shining over there… is that a ring….?" Lilith asked.
"Uhm…yes… I made it a while back…" Eli said.
"No wonder, never seen her wearing it before… but I could see a soft black fog from here… Arisa, Eve, can you confirm it…?" Lilith asked. Eve turned her sight to Eli's and Nozomi's ring.
"Yes, it's a black fogs, thick one for me…" Eve said.
"I'm sure I see the same thing…" Arisa said.
"Then that's the same crystal with the amulets— and made with the magic forge?" Lilith asked.
"Yes, and made of our own too…" Eli said.
"Is that means she got aborted?" Lilith asked.
"Yes…she was, George aborted it…" Eli said.
"That guy… deciding things in a speed of light… but either way, Elichika, you're not allowed to give that to an alpha werewolf like her, not like there's any side effect, but… that rings made you shares power and ability...and look at you, Elichika… you have so many passive that made you powerful and charming… just imagine if you accidentally give in to her charm? She will make you do her selfish desires—quietly and permanently… you're supposed to be the one who tame her, not bending to her will…" Lilith said.
"You're right…. I'll take it off…" Eli said as she placed Nozomi on the floor and gently took off the ring—keeping it in her pocket, took off her own ring and placed it in the same pocket. She was then picking Nozomi up again.
Lilith smiled faintly,
"You should keep that in your mind, Elichika… Good luck on taming her…"
"I will, thanks, Lilith…" Eli said.
"Now-now, next person, Arisa…" Lilith said.
"Yes?" Arisa replied, she is sad but trying her best to keep smiling.
"Thanks for being a good errand girl… updating the books from time to time made me happy… I just wish Leon didn't make you work that much though. He is so naughty for putting up so many fakes information and made you do a double checking with my journal…"
"At least he did a good work on giving me a guide about how to write it…" Arisa replied.
"I'm sure he did… but I think I have nothing more to say…" Lilith said.
"Please be in peace, Lilith-nee-san…" Arisa said.
"Yup, thank you… now for the next person… Maki-chan!" Lilith said cheerfully.
"I have a pile of letters stacked in clinic, they're all for you…" Maki said.
"Oh?"
"Apparently, there are so many letters unread and unseen by us…because it was hidden all over the room…." Maki said.
"What does it say?" Lilith asked.
"Well, I would complain first—because you're secretly having sex with some of our patient and more importantly, you did that often with 'medication' as excuse…. You're a bad girl, you know that…" Maki said.
Lilith giggled,
"But… I would say thanks too because you're also acting so kind in front of the kids and elders… giving them a maximum supports although they're certainly going to die from their diseases…but either way, they left you letters and all of them is about their gratitude. They wish you good luck with your career as nurse…" Maki said.
"I'm glad they did, but I never thought people would be too shy to give it directly to me…"
"That because you're very charming for them, they're afraid if you will reject it…" Maki said.
"Is that so….?"
"It is…" Maki said.
"I want to read them all…" Lilith said.
"I'll pick it up…" Maki said.
"Then I'll wait here, I can wait longer… right Eve?" Lilith said.
Eve pouts.
"That would be up to you…" she said.
"Then, now, for the last thing I have for all of you… are you all ready to grant my wish?" Lilith said playfully.
"What is it-what is it?" Honoka asked—she is able to keep a big smile,
"My wish is—to see you all hugging Eve! Go-go!" Lilith said.
"Eveeeeeee!" Honoka and Rin ran first and they jumps on Eve,
"What the hell, sis?!" Eve protested as she fell on the floor.
"Eveeeee!" Kotori, Hanayo, and Niko joined them. Umi, Arisa and Maki remained still. Eli only watches them as she carry Nozomi.
"What are you all doing? I said everyone!" Lilith said.
"I'm sorry Eve, but here I go!" Arisa said as she joined them.
Maki and Umi nodded,
"Here we go too, Eve…." Maki and Umi joined them as well.
"I'll sit here ok?" Eli said as she sat on top of everyone with Nozomi on her arms.
"Eli? You're really heavy! It's like all the burden suddenly raise!" Umi said.
"That's Nozomi, not me…" Eli said.
"All of you, Get off me damn it! I'm suffocating here!" Eve yelled.
"M-Me too!" Hanayo and Kotori said.
"I'm dead! I'm dead! I'm dead!" Niko yelled.
"Nyaaaaa!" Rin said.
Lilith started to laugh endlessly.
After everyone finally released her and catch their breath for a while,
Lilith finally stops laughing,
"That was awesome, everyone…I'm glad to see you all being so lively… especially in the end of my time like this…. but yes, thank you for showing me how lovely this world can be…" Lilith said.
"No thanks to you, I'm close to join you…" Eve said— she is still not looking at her.
"That would be nice— but I prefer you to stay with everyone… we've never felt this loved before, right?" Lilith said.
Eve remained quiet.
"Friends that actually think you as a friend, even though we have nothing left for them…" Lilith said.
"That's only you… I still have a lot of things to offer… you're the dying one here…" Eve replied.
Lilith giggled,
"Now, maybe you all should go home… it would be sad to look at me disappearing… maybe I just want Maki-chan and Eve on my side during that time… I can't help to look at all of your crying face…" Lilith said.
"Really? You do want someone else staying here, right? Not just two of us?" Eve said. Lilith stole a glance at Eli,
"Nope, I've said enough… there's nothing more to speak of…" Lilith said.
"I doubt that…" Eve said.
"It's true, ok? But anyway, Maki-chan, you should pick a recorder too when you take those letters…I want to leave my farewell to Nozomi too…" Lilith said as she turned to Maki.
"You're changing the topic…" Eve said.
"No, I didn't… it was just so she remembers…" Lilith said.
"This is your last time… you should say it…" Eve said.
"Nah—! Not a chance…she might be already knows it anyway…" Lilith said.
"What's the point if you can't say it out?" Eve said.
"Don't force me to do it, ok? I really can't…and I already know the answer…" Lilith said.
Eve sighed,
"Fine… but don't regret it…" Eve said.
"I won't…" Lilith said.
Everyone stays quiet as they're flustered with what's actually happening here.
"Now, please leave…all of you…"Lilith smiled.
The Bathory estate, dining hall;
Everyone except Eve and Maki sat on their own seat, Meg invited them to have some dinner. Eli still carrying Nozomi in her arms, Arisa had to help Eli eating her meal after she finished with her own.
Meg sighed,
"Eli, how long are you going to stay like that?" Meg asked.
"I'll wake her up at home… It's not save to wake her here since…I…I still don't know what to tell her once she is awake…" Eli said before she ate the last of her meal with Arisa's help.
"That's rare… knowing you who always good at anything, I mean… I never thought you can get stuck in this kind of situation… that girl surely brought so many things on your life…" Meg said.
"I know…" Eli replied.
"Why not just kill her? You know she is unworthy to live around here…" Meg said.
Everyone surprised to hear it,
"What are you saying, of course I can't do that! She is my lover!" Eli said.
"Yes, and that is a very horrible suggestion… Meg…" Kotori said.
"We can cure her, right? Why not just do that?" Umi said.
"Yeah….we can try injects another blood?" Honoka said.
"But, I think Lilith said, it doesn't work on alpha werewolf?" Hanayo asked.
"That's true, it doesn't work… because alpha werewolf can't get an error from another chimera blood existence, instead, they will absorb them just like if they ate another chimeras… so to completely stop her, there's only two choice… one is to kill her, second is…." Meg paused.
"…. You know it, Eli… and you know the requirement as well…." Meg said.
Eli bit her lips.
"I'm not going to force you, but think about it once again… I hope you're choosing the best for our kind… especially because you're going to be a mistress… everyone put their trust on you…." Meg said.
"Meg-nee-san! Shut up!" Arisa shouted.
Everyone looks astonished as Arisa yelled at her.
"She has enough burdens on her shoulder—you shouldn't try to make it feel heavier…" Arisa said.
"I'm just telling the truth…" Meg said.
"Listen, Meg, we're trying to ignore the fact that you are used to be on Leon's side… and with you trying to suggest things like that to Eli, I'm not going to forgive you anymore…" Umi said.
"No matter how you convinced us that you're already not on his side anymore, we're still keeping that in our memory—the time when you chased us down through the streets… we will still sue you for doing so once Leon is found." Kotori said.
"Our feeling, is not something to play with, ok? So do not think that you can get off the hook so easily…" Umi said.
"You're keeping grudge on me…" Meg said.
"We do… we surely do…" Umi said.
"Oh, come on… this dinner is an apology, ok? It's not poisoned too, everything here is completely healthy…" Meg said.
"Don't make us regret eating it…" Hanayo said as she frowns.
Meg sighed.
"Fine, I'm sorry… but my point is… Eli, she is your responsibility, not others…" Meg said.
"I know…" Eli replied.
"Onee-san! Don't listen to her! I'll help you out!" Arisa said.
"I will too, Eli, I have no idea what actually going on, but I'm very sure, I'll be able to help you out with all of my power…" Umi said.
"Me too!" Honoka said.
Eli smiled weakly at them.
"Thank you, everyone… but she is right… Nozomi is my responsibility… I'll take care of her…" Eli said as she stood up.
"Onee-san!" Arisa tried to call her, Eli ignored her and she walks out with Nozomi on her arm.
Everyone remained quiet sadly as they watch Eli walking so weakly.
"That was unexpected…didn't know she actually care that much about her." Meg said as she fix her glasses.
"Thank you for the meal… We're going back home…" Umi said as she stood up followed by the others.
"Yeah, it was nice…" Hanayo said a little coldly.
Arisa rolled her eyes,
"I'm out too…"
Everyone began to leave the room in silence.
"….and that's awkward…" Meg said as she watches everyone left.
Ayase family's resident, bedroom;
Eli placed Nozomi on the bed next to her, she is still sleeping quietly.
…thinking about it…. Lilith is right about I should not spoil her…To let her do whatever she wants…. It's true that she loves me, but… does she actually care about the others too? She has grown this obsessive and clingy, I doubt it will be easy to change everything…
Eli said in her mind.
But Meg also have a point… if I let her stay here any longer—she will certainly be a big trouble soon… she could go raging again if I didn't fulfill her wish…and maybe jealous when I did something for others… this is really confusing…
Eli said again in her mind. Suddenly, she could hear her phone vibrates on her table. Eli quickly picks it up— she didn't expect she already have so many mails.
Ah, didn't realize it… too busy thinking….
She thought before she open her first mail,
From: Sonoda Umi
Evening, Eli…. I know you're trying to figure out what to do with Nozomi, maybe you would prefer to take Lilith's suggestion—as in, taming her. I do think it's the best option, I'll be gladly to help you tame her if you like— should I get you a whip?
Eli chuckled,
No…no way…, that kind of taming won't work…She'll be gladly be punished…
Eli said in her mind as she open the next mail,
From: Minami Kotori
Eli-chan, I guess now you're in the same position as me in the past, except I don't think I'll able to decide for you— but I do think Lilith's suggestion is worth a try and Meg's suggestion is… uhm…. well… last effort… but no-no… let's not do that, ok? I love Nozomi-chan too…
But anyway, maybe you can try to make her meditate just like Umi-chan? She is doing good with it…
Eli smiled.
I think the only time she stop moving is when she is asleep… so, I doubt she will ever want to meditate…
She said in her mind as she go to the next mail,
From: SuperUltraGigaMegaAmazingCutestIdolNikoNikoNi
Ey, Eli, Just to remind you, Nozomi is still Nozomi, she is been aggressive from high school—and you're already the only one who can tame her… but if you think you want to make her do what she did in the past, why not take her to somewhere that make her feel nostalgic? The glass garden perhaps?
Good luck! Niko-Niko-Ni!
Eli chuckled,
Your contact name hasn't changed from a lot of years ago, I guess I just somehow like it that you changed it? But anyway, your suggestion is pretty good… I'll consider it…
Eli said in her mind as she move to the next mail,
From: Koizumi Hanayo
Uh…Eli-chan… I don't know how this will help but, if you're thinking to try to reduce something—it can't be just be done in one single cut. Like… if you're addicted to rice, then you shouldn't just stop eating it all so sudden. It has to be slowly cuts the portion off until either completely never eats or eats less…
Do I make any sense to you?
Eli nodded,
Pretty much, but I got what you mean….
Eli moved to the next mail.
From: Hoshizora Rin
Baby—In Training—Rookie—Champion—Ultimate—Mega—Burst Mode.
Sly Nozomi-chan— Mature Nozomi-chan — Wolf Nozomi-chan — Alpha Werewolf Nozomi-chan — ?
Eli-chan! You see, this is the evolution chart of Nozomi-chan! You already do great on her evolution route! Now it's time to evolve her into her next phase? You can do it, Eli-chan! You're the best Nozomi-tamer! Plus, the one and only!
Eli giggled,
Did someone playing too much game? But thanks, that was amusing…
Eli moved to the next mail.
From: Kousaka Honoka
Eli-chan, I'll send you a few chocolate mochi soon, ok? It's free! I know you've been through a lot of burden and responsibility so I want you to have it as my way to respect your hard work!
P.S: Don't stress about it. We're all here for you.
Eli smiled,
Harasho….Chocolate Mochi…
Eli said in her mind as she changed to the next mail.
From: HellzPrincezzzMakiChanIzCutezOmfg
If you are sick, our clinic can provide you the solution, but if you're talking about Nozomi, we don't have any doctor that will be able to handle her…. but there's one person who can help her—and her name is Ayase Eli.
Good luck.
P.S: Is my name in your phone still HellzPrincezzzMakiChanIzCutezOmfg? That wasn't me, ok? I don't know who did….not like I care…
Eli chuckled,
Thanks… but yeah, who change your contact name?
Eli tried to switch the mail again—but there's no more left.
Guess that's it from everyone….
Eli put down her phone. She turned her eyes to Nozomi again,
I wonder what I should say to you when I release you from this spell…
Eli said in her mind.
But I'm very sure that I couldn't kill you…. Nozomi… even though you keep being corrupted by your own desire… even if you will slowly destroy my life—as in, you won't stop changing to the worse and keep burdening me with your demands… I really prefer to keep you all for myself and ignore the world—but I know it's not wise to do so…. I have to find a way to cure you without having to sacrifice that much….
Eli strokes her cheek gently,
God, please guide me to get through this trouble… I wish to be able to return her to who she truly is—and there is only your miracle to make my dream comes true from the toughest struggle that I made. Because we believe, you'll never abandon us—the Sinner of Eden's child. Hear my voice, hear my prayer.
And as Eli gave Nozomi another strokes,
Arisa came by.
"Onee-san..." Arisa said.
Eli turned around.
"I have something I need to tell you..."
