Chapter 160: Nightmare

It began to rain, in this city that is always at night it began to rain, you could hear the drops fall sharply to the ground, the pool of blood and black mass dissipated little by little, but what would always be there, the mark of pain, the mark of regret, a wound, a fact that would not disappear.

Hiro watched the deceased body of the officer lying on the floor, he did not react, he could not feel the drops falling on his face, Hiro was the only one who could feel it.

『Why?....why?.....why?』

He was confused, he was hesitating with his action, what he feared the most finally came true, he knew that every person has their time of their death, but he wanted, he wanted all people to die in a natural way, to have no regrets, to have achieved several goals in their lives, to not have such a sudden and horrendous death. The little Hero witnessed up close how dark life can be, instead of helping and trying to save even if it is impossible, he simply turned around and walked ..... away from the body without further abandonment. The rain was still falling on this day, it seems that Hiro's spirits are finally dropping as well....

『Everything exists for a reason....everything happens for a reason.....with this being regret.....』-Hiro squeezed his chest-『I'm not destined to save everyone...』

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

Ailane's body managed to escape, thanks to Dagger's quick action he managed to distract Hiro, thus managing to slip away and hide from danger. He was in that large abandoned building, the heavy breathing, the light heartbeat, the sound of falling blood was present. He turned his head to the side, it was raining and the sky was turning gray, a case that never or rarely happened in MidiCity.

Ailane's body succumbed to the ground, she was very weakened by what happened in this battle, not even that was a battle, it was a massacre, it was like fighting a mouse against an elephant. But this time the elephant is so blind that it doesn't realize the fear that little mouse can cause it.

『Damn.....Hiro is still something impossible for me...why did I have to go for a guy like this...I can't stand those who have strength but no intelligence.....how it hurts!!!!!!!』

Dagger's voice could be heard coming from the mouth of Ailane's body, being still together they both share the same wounds and both damage.

『The right arm has all the bone broken and is about to tear away from the body....while the other by that last attack the bone also broke...the legs won't stop shaking, the body, the face, everything...everything.....all at last the vessel broke!!!!! He can't take it anymore, his heart beats very slow and he is about to die, you are the only vessel that I accept and at the same time the most useless, you are no longer useful to me, I will kill you』.

Dagger was frustrated and his plan in the end did not work out as planned, the black ribbons that were all over Ailane's body disappeared, thus returning to its normal state separating both beings. Dagger was relieved as he was no longer bonded to this body but was still inside it, the pain was finally gone and he was ready to end this.

『But before I kill you I will take away your Melodisian, at least thank me for doing you a favor, you were always a trash, a scum that nobody wants, a fool that makes decisions even though in the end you will lose out, because of people like you is that the world never progresses, you are just a little girl that wants attention because even if you make a mess, you are always left behind, I already gave you your glory days and then nobody will remember you, die as the person you are, nothing』.

Dagger created with the shadows a spear that would pierce through Ailane's chest taking away her Melodisian and at the same time taking her life. A whisper of word was heard.....under this rain could still be heard clearly.

『The one who will die will be you.....feel better insulting someone worse than you...it makes me want to vomit...I say this for both of us....because we are each other's parasite...people as horrendous as us...deserve to die!』

¡¡¡¡!!!! Dagger realized, M in his God Form suddenly appeared in front of both of them, in his fist he had the light technique already charged, he was about to eliminate him. The parasite saw no way to escape from this one, he had to get out of Ailane's body if he wants to have another chance again to escape, but...Ailane laughed confidently, he was forcing the parasite Dagger not to leave Ailane's body, his vessel became his prison where he will be executed at last. ✨✨✨✨✨✨ The fist touched Ailane's chest, the impact does not need to be with great force, with a simple touch the technique is effective, and this time as the body where the parasite is staying is weakened and at the same time he, now if after not letting it escape it now rejects it, it can be exterminated once and for all.

『NOO!!!!! I won't die this way!!!! I still have one last chance and I will use it!!!! I won't let you kill me in front of my father!!!! I will make you see, how cruel life can be!!!!』

I could feel my body throbbing deeply, I didn't understand why but it was as if my mind, my world, my consciousness went all black leaving me in a deep void. When I opened my eyes something unexpected happened, I was sitting in a classroom of a school, I had a black school uniform and with the reflection of the ruler I could observe myself, I was extremely rare.... I had the appearance when I was between 13 to 16 years old..... I saw my surroundings and I could hardly recognize them all, they were my schoolmates, they are as much as I saw them on that last day that I was swallowed by the portal.

I was located at the back in the corner next to the window, I could see the sky and the sun that even blinded me, the singing of the birds, all this seemed strange to me.

『Y*@%i-kun ,Y*@%i-kun ,Y*@%i-kun, Y*@%i-kun, the teacher is talking to you』

A voice I heard, I quickly paid attention, just as she said, the teacher was calling my attention to give my opinion, I don't know why it will be, it was as if I had also returned to the personality I had before all this, I couldn't give a fixed answer and just limited myself to sit back down.

『Is something wrong? you are not acting like you normally are, then if you are still affected by that day Y*@%i-kun, leave it to me, I will always take care of you and support you, you didn't understand the topic did you? as always you are in your world, now I am coming over to explain』.

That voice I could remember, yes, it is so familiar, that student moved her seat closer to mine, and I could see her, I was so surprised but at the same time she was so normal, she explained and talked to me as if we had known each other all our lives, she even called me by my name, well it is normal, she was always like that, how could I not forget that kindness she always showed me and that friend's affection, since I saw her it was so clear, she said she would always help me and give me a hand, she would take care of me, protect and defend me, she was so normal but at the same time so characteristic, how could I not forget the girl in the black sweatshirt.

『I count on you, Menhera-chan』.

Even though she is in uniform, she always has to go with the black sweatshirt on top for any situation unless she has a date. It was nice all this time I spent with her, it was a feeling of nostalgia but at the same time present, the talks with her were fun, although I'm only seeing one of her faces that only shows it to her close ones, there are also many times where she wants to show a strong attitude if the case arises, funny, childish, trying to act mature that little comes out, determined, loving in certain occasions.....dtoo I would say..... energetic, and she can be honest but not as much as the other, to summarize and not make it long, sometimes she shows attitudes like the personality of a boy, but not as much as the other, I guess that was a part, she is the balance between a boy and a girl, she can be tender, sweet and cute, and at the same time the optimism, thinking and idiocy of the boy, of course not as much as the other. ....Con my elementary and early high school self was what I liked most about her, you can make jokes about both and she will take it well, I think I've said enough, I'd better stop xd.

『Ah, I made you your obento Y*@%i-kun, after eating let's play, finally I could get the limited edition Multiple Eyes Mega Dragon legendary card』(ง `ω')۶.

『You can't resist anymore Men-chan, always when you have something new you want to try it quickly, not to say show it off, you get too attached, yes you were very lively Y*-kun』.

That voice I remember it too, I hadn't given me who was in front of me, I had already rang the bell and it was time for recess, that almost wavy hair and those glasses, yes, it was Rhino.

『Eh, but there's nothing wrong with it, I'm very excited really, even in the whole night I slept with him, I couldn't let go, ah! And I already said don't call me Men-chan! I'm not any Men-chan』 ٩(๑`н'๑)۶.

They 2 were happily conversing daily again, I was happy, quickly Menhera presented me with his letter and cheerfully handed it to me.

『For you Y*@%i-kun, finally I can present it to you, I know you like it very much and that's why I got it for you, use it a lot and show all your rivals how hard we tried 』 ʕ￫ᴥ￩ʔ.

I hesitantly accepted, she wanted and really likes this letter very much and she is offering it to me, I felt a little bad, but I couldn't say no to her after striving this and many times. Then I saw that she was also giving one to Rino and that she also had another one, she got more than I thought. Menhera was taking out her obento and another one, where she was offering it to me, to make sure there is no mistake, I checked my things and she had brought an obento.

『I'm sorry, it seems I brought one』.

Menhera felt bad, in the end with Rino we decided to share the second obento that Menhera brought so there wouldn't be any waste, when I opened my obento I also felt a little nostalgic, it was decorated very nice, and it looked good and smelled good, the only one who can do this is my sister. The 3 of us saw each other's obento, and mine with Menhera's it was hard to decide who was better.

『Today you're out of luck Men-chan, your obentos have no comparison, until Maya』 makes her appearance. -Rino was giving his opinion on the matter.

『Your sister is always a worthy rival to face』. (๑-̀ㅂ-́)و

Menhera was excited he couldn't hide it, while we were eating many girls approached where we were, from many grades and years, all with the same goal, Rino, this guy was like a magnet for girls, despite this one doesn't want to stand out at all even he avoids and hides his presence, although he doesn't fix himself anyway he looks very good, this one always rejected them compared to Menhera who always accepts. We realized that there was no need to drink, so Rino offered to bring them, at that moment a boy from another room appeared, and without further ado he declared himself to Menhera, shouting in embarrassment. At first we would all be surprised, but it became so everyday between us, if it's with Menhera she will always say yes, my childhood friend was blushing trying to hide her face with her hands.

『If you are okay with me, then yes, I want to be with you, please don't abandon me....』 ('ω｀*)

She looked extremely blushing and gave off love everywhere you look, but he was still extremely nervous and his first complaint was because he told her in front of many people, that it was embarrassing, the boy was blushing and it was good, this one offered stammering in that if he wants to go for a walk around the school, where Menhera accepted with joy.

『Sorry Y*@%i-kun, but, love is calling me again, I hope you don't mind』.

Menhera felt bad for leaving me where I shook my head saying it's okay, when I'm around her and she gets proposed to always or almost always it's like she would be asking me for permission. She was glad and patted me on the head.

『Thanks, yes you are a good boy, if you have a mishap just call me, I will drop everything to help my friend 』.

With those words she withdrew, I'm glad to have her as a friend, since as a couple she's kind of horrible, I still don't understand why guys propose to her even though they know what she's like, practically the whole town knows her, well, who wouldn't fall in love if you see a potential good and perfect wife in her, the bad thing is that....

『Ah! You know, it's 178 days to Valentine's Day, I will prepare 30 chocolates for you, in a week it will be our first anniversary of knowing each other and dating, but you know what's the good thing, we just completed 1 minute of being a couple, we have to celebrate! I am very happy, I must prepare something fast!!!! Every day I will write you "Good Morning Honey" and in the evenings "I hope you had a good day, have a good night Honey" When is your birthday? I will give you the best present! Ah, your coat button is broken, don't worry!!! I'm a good seamstress! I want to have 10 children and live with you until old age, what food do you like? I will give it to you 100 times a day! Eh?! Wait, who is that Alarm? Who is that Alarma? And why does she always call you at 6:00 am sharp? Are you being unfaithful to me already? Don't do it! Don't leave me! I promise to try harder! That you live with 2 women in your house?!!!!! Are you sure you're a good man? Ah, they are your mother and sister hahahahahaha, you are being unfaithful to me with your family?!!!!Even so I know we can overcome our differences, I will always be aware of you, I will always watch you, 24/7 by your side, you are mine and no one else's, well, now I will tell you everything I have planned until we die of old age, what do you think honey? 』

It's too much as you guys can see, because of herself her relationships end between 1 to 3 months.

『(...I think I got myself into trouble...)』 (・・;)

The boy made the same mistake as others thousands and thousands of times, someday I think this endless cycle will end. Although I don't think there is anyone who can stand Menhera. I was quietly waiting for my friends to come back, or at least Rino to continue our things, everything was fun and healthy, until he came again.

『Hello,Y*@@%i*#-kun....』

It was as if again my world collapsed, that mocking voice, everything started to distort in my mind when I saw him, always bothering me, always bringing out the worst in me like it happened on that day he destroyed me, telling my flaws while laughing, until now all the women I met were considered good, I still can't believe this person is a girl.

『Eh? What is this? Ha! Damn crappy otaku, who plays this in this day and age? What are you? A mommy's boy? Ah! Wait, yes you are! I still remember that day you pissed yourself and your boogers fell all the way to the floor!!! Aren't you ashamed to live? I couldn't stand it, I mean, what does it say here, dragon of what? Hahahahaha they really sell this stuff? Well, weirdos like you, that's why they keep on having and bringing out things that are not useful in life, but I tell you what is useful in life? To make an effort! To be intelligent! To be recognized by society! Not like you who come home and lock yourself in your room! What's the use of being level 100 when you are actually level 0? Earning achievements in things that will never serve you! If it's for self-satisfaction, it's also bullshit!!! Do you know why I always bother you since elementary school? Because people like you disgust me, you try to escape reality, you're a loser!!! Tell me where you got to with what you've been doing all this time! That's right, nothing! Open your eyes! And stop being a trash, hahaha....claro....tu you already resigned yourself, try harder damn it! It's free! You can't complain! Stop being a loser! Do some good to society! Make yourself useful at least!!! Seeing people like you....makes my blood boil!!!』

I was balled up in the chair, trying to cover my ears not to listen to her, I was getting scared and wanted to cry because of her loud and abrupt words, that wavy hair like sheep, those clothes, that way of acting towards others like me, always doing what she wants without thinking about what may cause others, you are not a girl, you are not a human, you are a monster, for me you are my nightmare.

『Menhera! Rhino! Help me!!! Please!!! Friends! Please!!!』

I started to scream, I didn't want to, since that day I couldn't stand it and ended up exploding, it was as if that girl had tasted the sweet delicacy and would do everything possible to feel it again, my abuser went on and on, she took every opportunity to throw herself at me, all so she could enjoy drops of the sweet joy. I raised my head, my friends finally came, I was happy, I would finish this.

『Help you? Come to think of it, if you're a loser, I was just offering you my hand to see if you could improve, it's been many years and you're still the same piece of crap? You're destined to be a loser, I should have never met you, better end your life』.

I couldn't believe my ears, they were Menhera's words, and her eyes, they were the same eyes my abuser looked at me with, they looked at me like I was nothing.

『It was fun, but it's over now, do you think we will always be there for you? Can't you stand up for yourself? Hey kid, stop being useless and at least love yourself a little, spending all these years with you was the worst thing that happened to me, you better disappear』.

Rino had also appeared, I was surprised by their words, he also looked at me as if I was a trash, without me noticing, all my classmates surrounded me and started to do the same as them, they insulted me and said ugly things, while those looks didn't disappear, my whole world was destroyed, I didn't want to, I didn't want to anymore, I can't stand this again, I thought that with everything that happened if I saw him again I could face him...but I see it's not like that.....I'm still not ready to be able to defend myself. Black ashes were starting to come out of my body, this was bad, I was starting to fall into the void.

....¡¡!! It was like a silence, my world of darkness was illuminated by someone of pure light, I could feel a warm embrace from my back. I could feel it, I would recognize it anywhere, but why?

『.....Syl?』

It was Syl who was now in front of me face to face, her smiling face, that love and warmth I never received from another person, I am feeling it again. I was smiling, I wanted to cry, I was crying, I couldn't stand it anymore, just like that day, I came back to unburden myself in her arms while crying like an infant, she is the only one to whom I can show this part of me, and the only one who accepts me as I am, Syl brought her forehead close to mine where there was a click, in my mind came many memories I lived, with all the feats I did since I was in elementary school until the current present, she was showing me all the good things I did and the friendships I made. Syl couldn't talk but I could understand what she was telling me.

『I will take it upon myself to make you see what a good person you are and all you achieved, so stop crying M as you say many times, if someone tells you that you are garbage, I will say you are the best, if someone tells you that you can't make it, I will support you like never before, if someone tells you that you don't deserve to live, I will tell you to live like no other, if everyone is against you, I will be by your side always, if someone tells you that they don't love you, I will tell you that. ....So M, prove that you can do it, because I know that when you make up your mind, no one can stop you』.

Syl was walking away from me with a smile on her face as she always was, she made me cry, she made me cry with happiness, I was happy, I dried my tears and I was clear about it, I can't let down someone who she loves me, just like she said, I will live, I will always live, I will respect your last will Syl.

『I will live!!!!』- 『You say not to be selfish, but you made me come back to life when it was my time to die, thank you』.

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

I could come back to myself, Ailane's body was straining to hold the parasite inside her body. Ailane all this time was screaming at me, even when she was in pain and her body couldn't take it anymore, she was screaming.

『M!!! 』

I quickly acted, I made more strength in the Light technique, there was a strong flash in the building, I managed to get rid of the parasite from Ailane's body, Dagger didn't avoid getting ejected even though he didn't want to.

『I have to kill you myself...I want to at least undo the mistakes I made....』

Ailane was able to stand up strained even to her body exceeding its limits, Ailane summoned her guitar pick filled it with energy and with one cut split the parasite in half, from these same pieces sprouted melodies of music that finished disintegrating the parasite.

『No!!! No!!!! This can't end like this!!! I'm sorry father!!!!!』

The Dagger Parasite disappeared and finally died, all his plans were finally eradicated. While that was happening I was still thinking what happened, all that happened in my mind? Was it a product of the parasite not to release it? And above all, why did I see Syl again? Well, after all, she's technically inside me, I think.....

『(Thank you so much Syl, helping me even after death, the best without a doubt is you)』

¡¡!! I couldn't relax, when I noticed it Ailane fell to the ground with no strength, I quickly alerted myself, I moved to my Lucario Form and was starting to heal her, I placed my ear on her chest to listen to her heartbeat, but I couldn't hear anything, when I was healing her I noticed she was losing life, I couldn't leave this like this, I can't allow losing a life when I have what I need to save it!!!.

『I told you we would become friends!!!! It's a promise!!! Keep your end of the bargain!!! Brat!!!!!』
