Chapter 13 – Emilia-tan
"THIS MAN HERE IS THE REAL CONTRACTOR OF BETTY"
Emilia was confused as she looked at the boy in question trying to piece it together.
"Real Contractor?" Emilia asked.
"I was too late in realization; how could I forget it" Beatrice added.
"Our memories were overwritten as the gaps were filled with fake memories created by
the authority of gluttony"
"To work so hard, to care for everyone and end up in a filthy place like this, really
doesn't suit betty's amazing contactor" Beatrice spoke as she couldn't hold her tears.
"Subaru?"
"You mentioned, but I don't recall anyo-" Emilia held her breath as she tried to make
sense of everything that happened so far.
"HE WAS YOUR KNIGHT!"
"NATSUKI SUBARU"
As soon as Beatrice spoke his name.
It finally clicked to Emilia.
"SU..BARU" She spoke.
Memories started flooding in, she felt dizzy as the reality hit her, her memories rewrote
themselves as the veil hiding her real memories were slowly being lifted. He eyes went
wide as her breathing became heavy.
Beatrice was glaring at her continuously.
Emilia is in the middle of a panic attack.
She clenched her heart; she lost Mother Fortuna due to her own actions if only she wasn't
so selfish she wouldn't have lost the closest people to her. She killed her mother through
her own actions and now she did it again, she reduced the man who loved her without any
prejudice who never left her side, No matter how treated him, to a mere criminal.
Her bangs hid her eyes, but her facial muscles could tell what expression she was about to
make. As she ran towards Subaru to him once more. She craved his smell the warmth, The
praises he gave her.
She walked towards his dead body trembling in fear, "do i even deserve his embrace
anymore?" She thought to herself.
Just as her hand shakingly came closer to his body, she hesitated at first but couldn't get
a hold of herself as she moved forward.
*Slap*
Beatrice slapped her hands away.
"KEEP YOUR HAND OFF, MY CONTRACTOR" Beatrice yelled glaring at Emilia as her tears
couldn't stop.
"Move"
Beatrice snapped out of it as she didn't expect Emilias tone to be so cold, It gave her
chills.
Her artificial body's temperature kept dropping low….
Low…
"Wait, No!" As Beatrice tried to turn her head she was frozen from the bottom till her
neck.
The prison cell froze and everyone inside were struck with the nightmare. "it wasn't the
usual Emilia they witnessed this was something else" Julius thought as he barely managed
to keep half of his body unfrozen with the help of his contracted spirit.
"Return him" Emilia asked again.
As she moved closer and picked you Subaru in a bridal carry. As she turned her back
towards the rest of them and began to walk out of the cell.
Beatrice mustered up her remaining mana. She concentrated it on to the palm of her
hands. She felt dizzy as her consciousness was about to slip away.
"No, Wait"
"Please don't take Bettys Subaru away"
"P…pl…please" as she let out a tear, but it froze due to the temperature of the cell.
"Betty is sorry"
"Su…..ba…..ru" She uttered his name out of desperation as she collapsed due to mana
exhaustion.
Ram came running as she just entered the prison, she instantly realized who may have
caused the temperature to drop.
Realizing this could mean Emilia was in trouble, she instantly ran towards the cell.
As Ram descended the stairs the temperature fell more and more. The more she walked
the colder it got. The torches were all extinguished due to the temperature and the prison
hallway was completely dark.
She heard other inmates groaning in pain as they too suffered from hypothermia, The
guards all ran away in fear of their lives.
As she descended the lowest floor of the prison, she ran through the halls trying to find
Emilia by the changes in temperature, Silence engulfed her.
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
She heard footsteps coming her way as she barely managed to maintain her energy after
already using most of it during the battle at the desert. She still managed to stay still,
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
The footsteps got closer….
And closer…..
As the origin of the footsteps revealed themselves.
"Emilia-sama!" She called
As she was exposed to an aura she never felt before, A pair of Amethyst eyes glowed in
the dark there was no shine on them. As lifeless as rugged stone.
"Emilia-sama?" Ram asked Emilia, still confused but still cautious over her every small
move.
"Ram" Emilia replied as a single tear was shed.
"Its over" She added further.
As Ram's face turned into an expression of shock and concern for her.
Deep in Augria Sand Dunes
There was a displacement of mana, at a scale recorded for the first time in the history of
the kingdom.
The cause a man in a shining white knight uniform, as he ran through the desert cutting
through wind.
His eyes lost their color the beautiful red eyes were now dull as magenta, He knew very
well the actions of his outcome.
"Why was I born with the blessing's"
"I don't deserve them"
"I am nothing but a monster"
"A lifeless monster" He spoke accusing himself.
He ran faster and faster...
His main goal was to return to the capital as fast as possible.
The Man ran though the sandstorm, knocking out any MaBeast that came in his way.
His eyes locked on his destination as he could process no other thought.
Present time in the capital
(NOTE: Play "Mastermind" by Kat)
As the guards ran out of the prison, their eyes were met with the horror's.
Huge crowds of civilians stood at the gate as unarmed guards were barely able to calm
them down.
"GIVE BACK OUR HERO"
"HERO-SAMA"
As the name for the archbishop made the rounds around the capital, People's memories
rewrote themselves.
The hero of Priestella, Natsuki Subaru.
"That kid is our hero; He saved my daughter form the clutches of your filthy royale
blood" A man with green hair and scar on his face stood confident with the rest of the
crowed.
"What is this?"
"This is going way out of control" The guards spoke between themselves.
"Contact the council at once"
"We need immediate orders" The other guards added in panic.
Meanwhile in Milord Manor.
A Loud bang was heard from Roswaal's office.
A Butler, who was in close proximity, ran towards to the office. A slender face and a tall,
lean body. Along with that, he has eyebrow-length dark blue hair as he adjusted his
monocle on his left eye, He gently opened the door.
A bottle of wine flew past him and shattered on the wall behind him.
"HOW"
"THIS CANNOT BE….." Roswaal yelled as his hand were bleeding due to multiple broken
alcohol bottles.
The butler stood shocked; in his complete 400 years of service, he never saw his master in
such a state.
On the ground floor of the manor.
One of the guest rooms was occupied, as a Blue haired girl was fast asleep on the bed, For
Od knows how long.
Her face lit with the soft table lamp lights shining on her face. Her eyes twitched.
As she finally opens the pair of beautiful blue eyes.
