Necro-phi/Vandango (End)

-Necro-phi Part-

There's a cheerfully sounds and voice coming from his room, the room where his body lies cold. Only to be awaken by a distant premonition far in the future. Those future are definitely not a bad thing. An ending where he can find a place to live and another soul to spend his life with, and also with people who care about him.

Those who were created from his will in this world, those who were scorned by his will in this world, they are the same thing that was created by his will. To spend his time in his own world just like what Veldanava did is not a bad thing either, because he can't escape from his creation either way. They'll soon noticed him and another saga will be created.

Having a family, marrying someone, children as his long life treasure, many friends who decorate his path and walk together until the end, some of them are what Cera wants him to do. As the one who has seen his journeys, she is becoming more and more understanding about that person.

Therefore, she didn't want him to be a lonely being who tear his time and soul only for other people. He trash away the concept of self indulge, and only need necessary things to life on. Cutting off his relationship, gaining many world for his arsenal, reassuring Cera if he'll be fine, such things which worsen how he is now.

The person in question knows about it pretty well. However, he keep walking on that path.

"In his view...there's no such thing like love or happiness for his life. Even if he had a speck, he would give it to anyone who needed it. If there was a small piece of it left, he thought it would definitely bring many souls into sorrow no matter how much time it would pass… That's why he would continue to do this."

Don't read the narration.

"...I know, but..."

What do you want to say.

"Looking at this flow...He'll bound to end up with another tragedy."

...

"But this time, the tragedy will push him to his limits and he will become stronger than ever… Just like what I did when I showed their corpses before his eyes..."

...and he'll be strong enough with a huge power spike until there's no one who can't face him, is that it.

"...No, ▀▀▀▀. What I want to say is 'what' his tragedy is."

...

"▀▀▀▀..."

...

"...An old friend, a being who wish for his love, a girl who longed for his promise...Being left behind alone in that world...She finally met him again and wants to be with him..."

...

"She tries to put her step closer into his zone...But the more she gets closer...The more she thought wrongly about him, then she embark to straighten her feelings...and then facing him again in another time."

...

"The girl has finally accept her feelings, what left is only to convey her emotion for him...However..."

The girl's feelings will never be reciprocated, being left alone betrayed by the person she has been waiting for, the girl fall into despair...and lost her life. A classic romance and tragedy.

"...However..."

...

"It won't be like that."

Is that so.

"▀▀▀▀, I know his feelings well. It's true that he will become a new leaf after facing every tragedy. At the time he made his choice with Megu-nee back then… He wasn't a fool who forgot his past anymore, but he was a confused monster who was processing his memories."

...

"...That girl...Moriarty will not be a part of his tragedy."

I see.

"...There'll be always another path...Far from tragedy for him to change."

So that's what you mean.

"You surely didn't forget about my name right ▀▀▀▀."

Maybe.

"Cera. A small and tiny light that can only enlighten his way, I'm his light with my final goal to make him to be what he is."

I think there's that time you were called that.

"Haha...It's kinda cheesy right? To think those words are coming out from my mouth. Ahhh...I'll die from cringe."

Surely you wouldn't die with only that.

"Sure I wouldn't! Well...Thanks ▀▀▀▀."

What for.

"...I know you're the one who told our tales, you're also the one who bring us down into this hell hole and these shitty moment where everything will crumble."

That is so for the first part. From that sentence, I don't think there's anything for you to be grateful of me.

"Ahaha...Unsurprisingly I really can't hate you. To gave me the power to twist, and then to send me right onto the destroyer...What a shitty plot isn't ▀▀▀▀?"

...

"Well enough about that, I'm still in my train right now and Lia is with Furrball. I'm looking forward to my meeting with those ship girls later, see you later~"

...Let's return.

"...One last thing ▀▀▀▀..."

What.

"Lia doesn't hate you at all."

-----------------------------

*PoV of Necro-phi*

"Don't lie to me okay, I will believe you if it's about those drones, but if you told me about a hundred thousand tall machine like that..."

right now i'm under heavy and strict investigation from Cecilia. she won't left me out even though i told them what the real answers were. like when i told them if there's many different persona inside and also of how i lose the right hand when that brute forcefully reflect an attack that could pierce a moon.

"And then?! What was that huge and tall machine was Aniki?! Was it like this?!"

"Kiana, stop hogging his hand, he only got one right now...and your drawing suck. It should be like this, huge cannon, rainbow barrier and also...Nii-chan what was the face look like?"

"Waits up you two, don't sit on his bed. Don't you see how frail his body is? Haha."

"Father you're the one who talk after all of that."

Kiana, Sirin, Siegfried and Bianca also still in this place. both Kiana and Sirin are on each side of my bed and pestering me about how the description of Thomas is. Kiana's drawing is not much in esthetic, so Sirin took it over and draw it better than before.

"...rail and toilet, don't forget about all those instrument."

in the middle of our conversation, Siegfried could sense if there's something watching over his family. without further ado, he tensed up to cover door and windows from any chance that anyone can spy on them. i also gave him a few sign so he can move without alarming the perpetrator.

"..."

Bianca also do the same and move around the room just like a curious girl who look at all medical instrument in the room, but she was also snapping one and two cable, and also crushing a few small device in the room.

"Toilet? That robot have a toilet?"

"Umm...I don't know where to place that one. Nii-chan, draw it for us~"

"Ufufufu...yeah aniki, use your great artistic skill and draw better than me ahahaha!"

*Tuk*

*Tuk*

"Owwwie...It's hurt you idiot aniki!"

"Ouch...Why I got one too?"

i couldn't help but flick their foreheads, not because i wanted to but because behind them Cecilia is looking at me worriedly and wanted to ask more about my condition, but she also didn't want to stop and separate her two daughters from my side. maybe because of her maternal instinct or when they both cried when they saw my acting earlier.

about my acting, Cecilia scolded me about it. she also almost cried again when i told her if i'm not really dead. what should i say...be it fake or not, i really can't handle a mother worrying about my plight. i also asked her about Moriarty well being, but Bianca told me if she went away somewhere.

"...your mother is right behind you, let's do this drawing after both of you learn your manners."

"Huuh?! What did you mean?!"

"My manner is better than Kiana, can I learn half of it?"

"You two really like to pick a fight with me aren't you?! Hmph! I'm leaving!"

it seems like...this Sirin got influenced by me in the past because of our perfect sync. three of them didn't told this body past very well and off to another place to gain their wish in this world. if its about wish...my motivation is really low about those. that's why i enjoyed this time however small and short it was.

"Mama! They bullied me!"

"Ahaha...It's fine Kiana, it's only a joke. Right Sirin-chan?"

"..."

"Right?!"

"Onii-chan, can I say it a joke if she's really stupid?"

"...you can't use a foolishness as a joke, unless you're a deadbeat father."

"Hey I hear that."

"But...You're always saying those line Onii-chan. "Kiana ,what a foolish thing you have done." and then, "My reliable Bianca, can you pardon my foolishness for this once." Things like that."

i don't really like the flow of this conversation, as i expected it's not good to have another type of person who think alike. just like what Sirin has predicted, maybe i'm a deadbeat father in different world before, but for Cecilia, Siegfried, and Bianca who know of Moriarty presence...yabbe.

'...first about my memory loss, next is my injuries and then...my disappearance, to think the last is...'

"Machi."

"Machi."

"Big Brother."

"""Where have you gone to???"""

so be like that and i have to face another interrogation with Kiana who smugly turns the light on and put it on my head. Bianca and Siegfried successfully clear any tapped device or hidden camera and mic that's hidden in this room. one last thing about Sirin, i thought she also catch my bad influence and becoming a NEET like how she was in Elf Academy, but thankfully she didn't.

...

....

.....

"Cecilia, Siegfried. What are you doing to a patient who just awake from his bed?! You three sisters too! Come over here with me to the waiting room!"

a few minutes later, Theresa came in and reprimand them if it's not good to just barge in to my room even though i'm her family. beside her is Kallen with her casual attire without her nun attire.

my parents in this world tried to explain their reason to Theresa so that she could understand, and another piercing glare created from her eyes right onto my direction when their explanation finished. however, Theresa didn't put me in another trial like what Cecilia did and calmly asked them to move so Kallen could have a time to talk with me.

there's small rejection though from Cecilia, but because i tell her it's going to be fine, she complied and ask her daughters to move out from my room. they leave step by step, before suddenly Kiana leaped onto my body and hug me tight.

"Don't leave us again, stupid aniki."

...i really can't handle a hug, it's just there's like something crawling behind my back and tickle me from inside. so i told her to hurry and release me before i add another flick on her nose.

"...crybaby. not only that you're also fat."

"W-What?! Look here-Ugeehh."

Kiana once again started our debate, but behind her a small hand firmly grasp on each side of her shoulder. her face turned pale, and she anxiously looked behind her back.

"Kiana-chan."

"K-I-A-N-A."

two devil in white drags her away. one is her mother, and the other one is a smaller version of Kallen.

---------------------

-Fast Forward-

After Necro-phi being left alone with Kallen, they start from courtesy to enter her main discussion. She asked him about the photo she got in her hand where El Dust was flying across Soukai city along with two objects.

She told him if one of the subject with him in that picture, was Yae Rin. A daughter from chief Yae in ancient household that was hidden deep into a hidden forest. Her presence should be classified from him because he never cared about Yae family before, but Kallen asked him this question because he not only found out, but also kidnap Yae Rin.

Necro-phi told her the same answers like what he told Cecilia from before. Unfortunately Kallen can't accept his shallow answers just like that. She asked him to tell her the truth, with another speculation if there was someone manipulating him or maybe something controlled his action to kidnap Yae Rin.

But his answers is still the same.

"...i'll lie, but i'll not hide the truth."

"You can't put lies and truth right with each other, something that's coated with lies can't be called the truth."

"...yet the truth is already spoken. something that has been deducted to be a lie, only to be the truth you're searching for."

Another debate took place about their definition of truth and lies. It continues to another topic such as justice and evil, and further into the secret organization that tries to reach the truth of this world.

Realized if he's also another soul who use justice in his own way, Kallen preach him to follows her and becoming one of her member in vigilante to understand the true meaning of justice. If he accept, then it will be like what happens below...so he rejected it.

The Kallen in this world already knew one or two about his traits because of her position, but when she heard his answers while rejecting her. She knew if he'll be another strong person who have faith in his resolve. It's a shame to not have a brave looking man growth beside her, but she accepted it and left his room.

This time...There's nobody in this room. Only Necro-phi who have a serene looks on his face while looking over the window behind the curtain. He can feel if there's a huge burden in this body, because he thought if it's about Sengoku's wish to have a better fight in this world.

He tried to regenerate his arm, but it fails. Because he's the one who said if there's no one should intervene with other's wishes, he accept this outcome while looking at the scenery of Soukai city.

"...the wind is good."

With a small chime of a bell beside his ear, Necro-phi enjoys his last time before he slowly fade from this world along with many branch of this world.

-------------------------------

And that is the end of Necro-phi stories, his story start from when he woke up in hospital and ended up also in the hospital. He only move around in his room and not to far from his bed, a perfect fit for his trait as an introvert. Though he can still picks up a conversation with another person, there's some difference based from his way of talk and from his narration than how it should be.

Well...I wants to prolonged his story a bit more, but unfortunately if I keep prolonged this then it'll pass till twenty or maybe thirteen. There's still Loli-man story after this so, his story becoming more rushed than machine gun blow.

"Hey ▀▀▀▀...Don't you forgot something?"

Let's move on to Vandango's part.

---------------------------

-Vandango part-

This is one of a possible branch that'll be taken if he keep moving forward with his choice. This branch was created from his wish to know about the future, so his abilities are not putting another clone or another piece of him in the future that'll connected to him in the present.

Vandango, the name who play the role of the future him. Necro-phi, the name who play the role of the past him. This persona is the tale of how he was used to be, until how he is now.

The old him who always play with his life and care little to his death, until he changed into someone who grew to be a man who protect his life and live for others.

Let me tell you one tale of a slowly withering branch in this world.

------------------------

*PoV of Vandango*

"Gyaaaa! Stop T-Posting on my face! Nya!"

"...You can't escape the grim of T-Posting! Follow my lead, and we shall embrace and throw this world in to T pose!"

"N-Nooo! Leave me aloneeee!!!"

Haiyahh...She leave again, this is the ten times that i recruit Pardo to join my squad along with Kallen as the band of legendary night walkers from Soukai City. Pardo can be founds crawling near an alley, where there's crowd of cats, and sometime in this place or an orphanage where kids who have lost their parents or can't live alone in the city.

That's why i wanted to recruit her again, but it turns out into another failed trial.

The place it self is not that sad in the present, there's some war, criminal from the street, disability children, those who escaped their parents debt, incurable sickness, abandoned ,subject experiment and many more. That was how things in the past, but since Kallen noticed this and i also chimed in to escape from that simp-O, they got more hope to see tomorrow and more days to look upon.

MOTH and other organization who used some children as their subject tried to butt in and disturb our plan, but when that simp-O step up to make Kallen wish come true, all ends well. At least for now, who knows if that simp-O will betray me and sold me out to MOTH. I already tasted a few years in that organization, so...no thanks.

"Don't you hear me when I told you to never show up again?!"

Oh hey there's two figure who are my favorite. Kalpass shows up along with his violent taunt at a small girl with two horns ,a tail and a pink great sword at her arms. Its none other than Delta a female member of my crew. Delta who heard his threat just smiled at his words and put her sword onto her shoulders.

"Don't be that rude, Kalp. I only want to see those two idiot well being. You wouldn't stop me from seeing my siblings...right."

Delta stab her sword into the ground and accept Kalpass taunts head on while flicking her tail. She didn't appeared to be scared even though her enemy is a dangerous man who can literally destroy this city the place she walks on. Kalpass on the other hand, he cracked his fingers and move fast to grab Delta.

"Too slow!!!"

Delta retaliate using another great sword in blue she pulled out behind her, and glance to his side where she can deliver a huge blow using both of her great sword. She jumped with her tail locked into the hilt of her blue greatsword to gain more momentum while in the air and counterattack Kalpass who attacked her first.

"Like that'll work!"

*Clang*

Kalpass used his fist to block her strike. He take her hits head on and use one arm to block her pink great sword and another hand to parried the blue great sword. To further knocks Delta back, he uses his leg and kicked delta to her stomach, but it got blocked by her tail.

"Whoops, that's a huge blow right there Kalp. Be thankful that I'm here with you."

"Stop messing around!"

*Clang-Booom*

To be honest, this was a weekly occurrence when the two of them met again after joining different organizations. At first Kalpass wanted to be a rouge like Delta, but due to outside influences, he was drawn into the MOTH instead and left a bitter taste when he can't keep his words.

Although they can't be in the same group anymore, sometimes Kalpass visited this place to look at children in the orphanage, and there's that time he met Delta who take this place as her home together with her siblings because her group with him has been disbanded.

"Let's end this now, Kalp!"

"Stop acting almighty Shorty!"

*Clang-Booom*

With that final clash, dust filled the area which made it difficult to see the final outcome of their duel. The sound of their clash also made a nun come out of a building and decide to end their 'greeting' before adding more damage to their property.

"Ahh...Aponia came out...Let's run."

Since now that the important person is out, there's nothing else that I want but to run from her. Whenever I saw Aponia she always gave me a restless feeling when I was around her, maybe it's because she's a benevolent type who rarely shows her anger, plus I didn't want to accept more sermons and her 'discipline' either.

"Well...Bye bye Nun, Maddog and ∆ . Let's say my farewell to Kallen and prank simp-O before I left."

I walked back while looking back to get their faces before I faded away, using my right watch where it was showing the time before my departure.

"It's time to go. Fwhuuu...What a time~"
