Chapter 176: Preparing a New Self (Part 4)

The boy X was supporting morally and wholeheartedly the Queen of Darkness who trusted this boy completely, X saw how she smiled with joy and even cried when she gave him her hand, but what X saw was something totally different, it seems that he was born with the ability to perceive people with their positivity and negativity. He discovered it recently with Howan, who she shone with a pure light and without any trace of negativity, at the moment he knew what this ability is and he liked to have this because he will know who is good and who is bad. The second with whom he saw it was with Orion who also shone a white light, but was somewhat opaque and even saw traces of ashes on him, but it was nothing to worry about, with time these ashes would disappear without swallowing all the positivity of this person, he was a good person at the end of it all.

That's right, each person has a balance of positivity and negativity, Howan would be the pure positivity which the balance will always be turned on him, people like that there are few in the world, while in the most balanced, neither so much nor less would be people like Orion, who have at the same level their positivity and negativity, but in extreme situations, even person like that his balance falls more on the positivity. But with the person in front of him his scale falls more in negativity than anything else, in her he only saw a dark color coming out of her body, X from inside he felt bad to know that there are people like that, he wanted to cry, for the first time he felt what it is to feel sorry for someone and not be able to help him. Her scale of positivity did not reach her and did not move her negativity that weighs so much, with this she knew and deduced quickly that this is what she lived. Even if she wants to change it will not be possible, for people who have no salvation their only way is already more than decided.

『I promise you were smiling until the end *smiles*』.

Without further ado the melodies were dyed in a black color and without further ado began to vibrate as if there was no tomorrow, it moved in an unruly manner as if they had no control. Only the Queen of Darkness could perceive it, it was like a moment of calm and peace for seconds, the melodies that were crazy took a calm and relaxing tone, where without further ado X began to cry for her asking for forgiveness.

『I'm sorry....I'm sorry....I hope you forgive me.....but I can't stand this anymore...to see someone suffer without having a chance...it's very painful』

Without further ado the body of the Queen of Darkness exploded without further ado, the Unique Melodies of X protected him from the blood, now there was a pool of blood in front of him. Everyone present at the sight was stunned and confused, the boy who they thought was pure had just committed a most heinous act.

It was a silent cry, tears were falling but there was no sound, just a pool of blood on the floor, X knelt down where as if he had a handle with his Unique Melodies, this began to absorb the blood where little by little his Melodies that were already red were now dyed even more vivid red.

『I'm sorry....I'm really sorry.....but it was the only way I could do....the bad people who have no salvation, that their negativity is overflowing from their body.....it's very painful to see someone like this....even if they fight their life will be affected by this and they will no longer be able to get out.... it would be like living a hell in flesh and blood.....it is very ugly to become someone you are no longer....doing things in order to no longer matter to others....evil, perverse, darkness.....villains....that would be the word.....villains who are really bad.....have no salvation』

X was still crying inconsolably in silence while covering his face, finally came the moment where he knows and feels the negative of the world, the evil that every being has sometimes is more present that there is nothing to remedy it, and this will be the case, he did not think much, he did not doubt it when he saw his inner self, if he had asked for help the Queen, maybe he would have stopped and really helped her, but still he would have made the same decision, his inner self was stained, his heart was stained, it is what one must do as the duty he has.

『What just happened....』

Retoree could no longer see any more he looked away, nausea came over him so quickly that he was bending down to bear it.

『He just killed the....』

A was also shocked in front of this fact that she felt a helplessness of how things turned out, similarly Un and Daru Dayu looked of why has this happened.

Also as much as Cyan and her companions watched this, her killer was also crying because of what she just did, why she did it, they repeated it several times, especially Cyan who really wanted the Queen of Darkness to have another chance. In the background Howan was looking disconsolately, the boy was crying and she felt she had to go with him to comfort him, but she couldn't move a single foot, she was afraid to help and get close to this boy.

"I knew it, we should have finished him at once』.

Orion without further ado pulled out his instrument and without warning launched himself to attack X. POMMMM!!!!! A strong blizzard of energy shook the entire interior of the dome, Orion recoiled from the eminent event that was about to happen. From X's chest was cracking, the crystal, the Melodisian Almaz was showing itself from his chest.

『Eh?....What is this....I'm afraid..!!!!!』

With no more energy rays, the ashes were fluttering and out of control coming out abruptly from X's body. His out of control was destroying the interiors of the Dome, quickly everyone present summoned their instruments and moved to safety from the random attacks occurring. While only the sound of everything being destroyed and the cries of suffering and pain of X, who's chest crack was still spreading throughout his body, could be heard.

『AAAAAAHHHSHSGGGGGG!!!! It hurts!!! I'm scared....I'm scared....it hurts so much.....I'm sorry.....I'm sorry.....if I did something wrong I'm sorry.....save me...help me....please.....』

There was without any control the boy X who was silently asking for help and forgiveness in all this mess. You could clearly see the Melodisian Almaz as he still continued to have that pure glow in him, but little by little the negativity was staining him with black ashes that would take over him.

『Enough is enough!!!! If you want me to save you, I'll use the same method you used!!!』

Again Orion this time accompanied by his companions Selen and Argon threw themselves against X who used their best techniques to stop all that out of control, because of the desperation that X felt, he was still crying, his Unique Melodies again manifested and as if they were his shield they started to protect him without further ado, more than protecting him more he was attacking around him so that no one would get close in a crazy way.

But still this would not stop them, without further ado they made a combo and launched their range attacks towards X who was crying inconsolably for all this. Where without further ado the Melodies opened up as if receiving their direct attack, their combo attack disappeared without causing any damage.

The sound of the balance was heard, it was descending little by little, quickly everyone felt a great pain inside his chest that spread throughout his body, rays of darkness, traces of ashes came out of each of them and they could see it, as if it were a projection they could see how their Melodisians of each one gradually lost its brightness and was consumed by ashes that appeared out of nowhere inside them.

Orion and his companions were left sore but they could continue, they were going to continue attacking but 2 were ahead of them, Shu☆Zo and Titan launched themselves running in a fast way , they were dodging the ashes and Melodies that were trying to hit them, Shu☆Zo with his slash was making his way through all the mess, while Titan having nothing to attack with and summoning his piano would be a waste, decided better to try to hit him with clean fists, those present watched as these made their way through but it wasn't enough, the Melodies had finally cornered them. POOOMMM!!! BOMMMMMM!!!!! An energy attack from afar was able to collide with the Melodies.

『We will support them, keep going!!!』

Rararin along with his companions launched a ranged attack, not having the physical skills like them, they better decided to be support for these.

『Don't worry, whoever receives our support always reaches the goal』.

Rosia also with her companions were attacking from a distance helping the 2 young men. They thanked them shaking their heads and continued their journey, they advanced in the journey to reach the boy X who did not understand what was happening, but although the others supported with energy attacks, they did not cause any damage to these Melodies, they were neutralized or absorbed, but instead the slashes made by Shu☆Zo were able to at least cut them. Without further ado the 2 young men decided to get serious and some yellow and blue auras appeared in them, their physical abilities increased and without further ado the process accelerated, but the brightness of these was not like before, you could feel that they were opaque and without their full potential.

『Now!!!!』

Titan shouted with all his strength and managed to get to the front of X who was still confused and crying, POMMMM!!!!! He hit without more his fist where he gave all his strength, the Melodies resisted him, managing to make small bruises to the Melodies, then Shu☆Zo appeared with his slash, having all the attention of the Titan Melodies, there were not so many for them to stop Shu☆Zo who was about to attack X, shouted without more the number 1 when he wanted to reach his attack...This one was confused by what just happened, he had in front of X who was confused and crying in front of him.

『Why...why do you want to attack me.....I didn't do anything wrong.....I'm suffering!!!! Please....help me!!!!』

Minutes and seconds before being attacked by Shu☆Zo, the boy X was scared and foolishly tried to defend himself by grabbing Shu☆Zo's slash, which he managed to do without any effort, with his hands he managed to stop Shu☆Zo's slash without getting hurt, which number 1 was surprised.

『Do you want to know why?』

A voice without being could hear X, this one was in fear , where again there was a burst of power that drove away the 2 young men who tried to stop all this. The Melodies seemed to consciously and in a controlled manner defend X.

『It's because you are a flaw, a mistake, because they know that if they don't stop you, you can create chaos』.

To these words of this being without any emotion or feeling, he addressed X who was hunched over by all this, covered his ears in fear and made a ball, as if to say that this is just a nightmare and that when he wakes up everything will be over in the blink of an eye.

『I'm not that...I don't want to create chaos.....I just want to be okay.....I want to control myself...I want to smile....I want to be happy』

¡¡¡¡!!!!!! Quickly in her mind came many other memories of different lives they have lived, are living and will live. Memories that are his but at the same time not, he is like them but at the same time he is different, he quickly understood what he is now, he is unique for the moment, he is the first step towards perfection. The first parasite with free will and not caged in anything, he can do what he wants, he can choose his own path as he said before. He is who he is, but after all this filling his mind with the little information that came to him, he kept screaming and didn't want to know anything about it, but quickly accepted who he is.

The atmosphere changed from how unruly it was to a calmer one, the Unique Melodies and the ashes ravaging everything finally stopped, X was breathing deeply, closing his eyes so he could calm down from all this, the ashes of his body slowly returned to the inside of X's body just as his cracks and crystal stopped showing and returned to the inside of his body. At last everything calmed down, in the center of the stage there was only X who was relaxing putting his mind at ease without hurting anyone.

『(.....Breathe....think nice things.....you must control yourself.....the lives of others depend on me...I must be relaxed if I want them to be relaxed too...although I don't think that's possible.....it's the least I can do now....)』

Without further ado he stood still in his same spot, those present were gathering and planning how they could stop all this, it was like their conclusions of what they had of this boy had been quickly destroyed by the boy himself. They were again afraid of the big threat this could lead to, being very emotionally unstable he is the worst candidate to be the guy who is in charge of thousands and millions of lives, first he was happy, before he was scaring no more power, now he is trying to relax on his own, a little carelessness and it could happen again what happened before.

For the last time Orion would try to attack now that the boy X was careless and free, he was extremely tired but he would still decide to give everything, he charged his instrument of great energy and without further ado he threw it against X. The young man, now calmer and even in control, invoked his Unique Melodies and stopped Orion's attack without any problem.

『Don't use up your energy so fast please, otherwise you may never use it again』-Without further X turned to everyone present-『I'm so sorry for all the mess I caused.....I'm even ashamed for my behavior....I'm really sorry....I don't....what happened to me.....I didn't do anything wrong.....I just wanted to be able to get along with everyone.....enjoy.....I thought I was doing the right thing.... I guess I don't know how the scales work.....』-『*smile*You guys did the right thing by wanting to stop me, I think I would have done the same if there was no other choice...but I was also afraid....I am the unstable one and that scares me....what will become of my life now that I know.....I don't want to.....I don't want to.....and because of me now everyone will also start suffering the consequences...I am so sorry....maybe my forgiveness won't do any good. ...but sorry...I...want a future where we all come out smiling, I still want to feel what it's like to be alive, I have to make the most of what it's like to be free, grant me that wish please.....busc.....want a way for everything to go well, don't worry, as the person in charge of you it's my job *smiles* (I want a place where I can be with you) .....I can't believe I said that. .ahahhfahgg...I'm embarrassed, I'm really not good at this....I'm sorry....but I have to do it....(if the problem is my instability then I just have to make the balance always be in the positivity, I must avoid getting upset or feeling any emotions that might shake me.....I must limit my life experience for all of them....I still feel like my chest wants to split.....I must find a way to relax.....)』

At that moment X happened to think and remember everything, in his journey memories came to him of other parasites who considered it good and satisfying to do inhumane and horrible acts, for them to accomplish the task given to them by their father is the best feeling they can feel no matter the method. Again his scales were moving, his ashes were starting to crack and come out, he had to control himself and look for a method of relaxation...At that moment he was reminded of♫♫♫♫♫🎵 Howan's melody and singing that made him feel a unique kind of emotion, it's like he embraced your heart and that's what he needs to feel. He remembered not only them but all the different songs he listened to by each band.

『(That's it....I love music....it's the only way my scales are balanced with total positivity....I know it's futile....and that the fate of this world is....but if there's a chance, then I want to take it, I'm no sample to throw away.....if you were going to do it anyway....then what did you create me for....it's obvious I want to live)』

Without further ado X turned to the others and with a pleasant smile on his face and blushing this one would be about to leave.

『I hope we meet again friends.....I hope you consider me one....I do want to be with you, sorry for all this, but just like you have your determination, I do too, ah! And one more thing, I wish I would have had a much nicer one and that my mother gave it to me.... ahag.haagghh.... sorry..... my name is Parasite -A, you can just call simply -A, see you later *smile*』

Without further ado, he wrapped his Unique Melody around himself and flew off, piercing the Dome's lid on his way to no one knows yet. Those present were still confused by this, but they knew one thing about it all, that they couldn't just leave him alone to do what he wants.

-A was flying through the city on his way to the actual Dome where the Band Festival would take place, on his way he met all kinds of people on their way to the dome, both families and grandparents. But -A was happy that his eyes did not stop shining, to see this city so illuminated, so alive was something that made his heart beat and overflow with joy, he thought it was a very nice place to live, another kind of joy that -A just felt. As if he was a certain boy we already know and would do the same. -A in his flight he bumped into a grandpa who was going to the Dome and he was walking so slow that he even looked like he was forcing himself.

『My hip is hurting..... I shouldn't have sat on the beach for hours..... plus I recently felt a slight pain in my chest』.

It was a grandfather we also know, without further ado -A seeing this and seeing his scale full of pure light, this one decided to help him and greet him, appearing in front of him from the sky, the grandfather seeing this only smiled.

『Hohoho.... I guess age is getting to me』.

『Excuse me grandpa.....can I call you that?....it sounds a bit offensive to me....how about if I call you Ojii-chan.....huhmmm aghhahaah!!!! Sorry, I think that was more offensive, sorry I'm sorry for my boldness』-ू(ᵒ̴̶̷᷄ωᵒ̴̶̷᷅*-ू) )੭ु⁾⁾

At -A's nervousness and shyness, grandpa was laughing and came over to stroke the head of this boy who has a lot of nerves.

『No worries, then to me too forgive me for my boldness hahaha *smiles*』.

It was a very unexpected act for -A that he didn't expect it, grandpa seeing that he was embarrassed, decided to try to calm him down by stroking his head, this gesture again of feeling affection for another person in a gentle way, for sure was one of the best feelings there is for -A.

『You are also heading to the Dome right? To the Band Festival』

-A started to have a talk with Grandpa, where Grandpa replied that of course, it's so that he can relax from the bad news that happened to him too.

『With that you also suffered.....strength Ojii-chan, a person with that light like yours deserves more than happiness, if possible I will also help you...ahhaghh....no...you can't trust someone like me you just met.....but still if you don't want to trust me, I will support you and earn your trust.....yes, that's what I wanted to say *smiles* you're not alone』 (◍ '꒳` ◍)b

『You're a good boy, the words you said I feel like someone else already said them to me hahahaha, by the way what's your name?』

『My name?....haauhhh...maybe he'll make fun of it....it's no big deal honestly.....but if he really wants to hear it for me it'll be the greatest thing he can give me.....-A.....that's my name』 (*'-｀*)

『-A? yes it's an unusual name, but it's nice, -A-chi or maybe -A-chan』.

At their conversation of both of them, the grandfather started to have confidence in -A, where the latter after hearing that he was called that name, he felt happy and his cheeks were red.

『-A-chan...-A-chi...-A-chan.....(๑￫‿￩๑)-A-chi....*smile*So it sounds much nicer that way, but can I use those terms...I think it's very nice for someone like me.....』 （˶′◡‵˶）

After that warm conversation they decided to go on their way, -A decided to carry grandpa to make it much lighter their journey, on their way they kept on chatting the nicest, and thought again that the people of this city are very nice and good, definitely want to live with them and won't let anything bad happen to them.

They arrived at the Dome where people were lining up, there was a lot of security and several flyers and posters announcing that there were only a couple of hours left before the start of the whole thing. -A was excited and he was totally happy, lots of people gather to get excited and feel happy, maybe to get a change of scenery and feel better or recover from something sad. This is what he wants, and he definitely wants, it's the path he decided early on and he wants to realize it. He just hopes it works out and he can see the show.

He saw the flyers and posters and knew who would be the bands playing, he was surprised to learn that he had seen them before, they were the guys from that previous dome.

『With that they are the ones who are going to play....what a thrill, I already want them to come and play their music, I hope they have forgiven me.....I'm sorry....I'm sorry.....I'm sorry....I just want to be well』.

『This is going to take a while but at least we have room, it's going to take a while so why don't you go have fun and hang out somewhere else, I'll be watching our places』

『Our Ojii-chan?』 ('-ω-`๑)

Grandpa showed 2 tickets that he had just bought for A, he had no way to get in and no money, so as a nice gesture for his help before he decided to buy him a ticket that still sells them, A was happy and smiled in a pure way to grandpa. At his grandfather's insistence that -A go have fun while this is still missing, -A had no choice, he wanted to be the one to stay but he couldn't refuse how good the old man is.

-A walked through the city and came across a park on his walk, the truth is he didn't have much to go to, he could fly but it felt better to walk inside the city, in the park he came across 2 little kids who were playing in the games, who were Balt and Nickel who were laughing, -A was watching as if wanting to join too, where the brothers could see it and smiled at him.

『Eh? Me?.....I think they are wrong....it must not be me....although there is no one else....ahhhfggh....（＠'＿｀＠）seriously it's me....I have nerves....I don't know how to deal with kids....ehe....hello!(^◇^;) I think not.....』

The brothers approached him and addressed him, who -A was confused and nervous to be with some kids, he could see their scales and their positivity lit them up in a pure light like never before.

"Are you lost? Where are your parents?』

Balt asked him a question where -A who was blushing finally decides to answer.

『Lost?...I think so...this is all new to me....and my parents...my parents....where will they be ahahahag...there....』 (*'_ゝ｀)

When he finished his words, -A's stomach roared like never before, the brothers before this were surprised while -A's face was redder than ever worse than tomato, without further ado both brothers took him by the hand and took him away, -A was confused but because of his nerves and embarrassment he decided to let himself be carried away by these minors, they went to a croquette stand where it was still open, with the money left by their brother Titan they bought more croquettes and invited -A, where this at first he refused but in the end he ended up succumbing as always.

『¡¡¡!!!!! It's very tasty....very tasty...how nice it is to live....』

Out of nowhere, -A started crying at the first bite of the kibble, the siblings at this were worried, thinking that maybe the boy in front of them is in worse situations than what they are living, -A kept crying with a smile while devouring the kibble. Surely this is why they empathized with the boy the brothers had just met.

They returned to the park where they all played together with the games that were there while waiting for the time to go to the Dome, it was his first connection with children and he liked it very much, he thought that there are no purer beings that do not have a hint of negativity. He felt what it is to play, to have fun, to share, to give and receive, and he hopes to be able to feel emotions equal or superior to this one, although maybe that will never happen.

While they were having fun a man just appeared in the park, he had been watching the sibling children for some time, but since there were people still passing through the park he didn't plan to intervene, but since there are only children here now, yes, -A is a child there is no better opportunity than this one.

『But look at the little ones they are ajajajaagafafa I can't resist anymore.....it must feel good to be inside a child....let me share that happiness!!!!!』

Without further ado the wanderer lunged at the children, where they were frightened and screamed, but there was no one around the area anymore, -A who was also afraid had to do something, but he knew he can't just get excited even a little bit, he shouldn't get upset.

『Get away!!!!!』

Without further ado - A launched himself against the vagabond with a tackle that hit him squarely, his heart began to beat for the excitement and adrenaline he felt even though it was small, he restrained himself and closed his eyes to relax, he was beginning to feel a pain in his chest and his ashes were coming out. But before this he had not realized that he already had the brothers in his arms, the bum was in adrenaline mode, quickly once and for all with his tongue he would start licking their cheeks without further ado, -A was shocked by this, he had to restrain himself but he had to help.

『But what a softy, I don't care you're a male....hole is hole, I've gotten him into worse things...someone with his head lost like me doesn't think of anything anymore!!!!!』

Without further ado the bum was starting to pull down his pants where the brothers Balt and Nickel were scared and screaming in despair, while -A was shocked not knowing what to do, he saw the scale of that man and had no hope, his negativity was at rock bottom and now he was about to defile a pure soul.

『DETENT!!!!!!!』

BBOMMMM!!!!!!!!! He was already out of control, without further ado his body was starting to crack showing again the crystal in his chest, without further ado the Unique Melodies of -A appeared and went straight towards the wanderer who managed to catch him.

『(There....find yourself.....rejalate...even if it's stained that guy.....I shouldn't do it anymore....although it's okay...I shouldn't do it.....I don't want these kids to see this....)』

-A was trying to relax as much as he could with all this, the bum was scaring and screaming no more, where the brothers Balt and Nickel were safe and put to a safe place along with -A.

『Balt!!!!! Nickel!!!! Get away from him!!!』

It was the voice of Titan who appeared in the place, he ran without further ado when he felt that his brothers were in danger, not only he appeared but all the other members of the gangs already seen before, -A was again unable to control himself and was emotionally unstable, without hesitation Titan again threw himself against -A with all his power, he was enveloped in a blue light and with kicks he attacked -A.

POMMMM!!!!!!!! Without further ado, he managed to give him a strong kick that, due to the carelessness of it all, sent -A far away. Titan approached his alarmed brothers.

"Bart, Nickel, are you all right? Nothing happened to them?』

『We're fine Onii-sama』

Nickel answered his brother, suddenly something was heard dripping, the 3 brothers looked and saw how abruptly the brains, blood and the body of the homeless man was split in half, these remains fell without further ado to the ground filling it with blood. Titan quickly covered his brothers' eyes by hugging them, but it was too late, they had just seen something that no child should have seen. The scale was out of control, several black rays, ashes and melodies were shooting out of the body of -A who was screaming in pain again and making an effort to control himself.

『(Not this time....I have the knowledge of the other parasites....I can control myself.....)Stop it!!!!!』

With no more to his shout, everything stopped, but it was a calm for what comes worse, the Unique Melodies of -A went to the corpse of the wanderer, and as in the same case as the Queen of Darkness, began to absorb his blood, brains, corpse of these, dyeing again even more of a red color of his melodies.

-A was shocked and the first thing he wanted to see was the brothers, who could witness all this by stepping aside, their faces were of absolute fear.

『Eh? Wait....they're afraid of me....if they were happy just now.....this can't be.....your scales are pure....you shouldn't have to show that look.....!!!! I already know....I'll do the same thing she did with me....come on, show a smile...yeah...in hard times...you must show one』.

Without more I smile -A like Howan did at the time, but it was useless, his calm and flushed face with what he just showed, gave the impression that he is a being to be afraid of, no one smiles to calm someone down when he just killed.

Without further Balt and Nickel began to cry without further ado and to scream, this seemed to be the trigger, again the balance of negativity was gaining ground where -A could not control his powers. Everyone around them was suffering the consequences, they felt severe pain in their chest, they saw how their Melodisian were becoming even more opaque and filling with negativity.

『It can't be it can't be it can't be!!!! Stop it!!!Get a grip on yourself!!!』

With no more everyone could do little about it, the pain felt by the Melodisians wielders around -A could do nothing. The lightning bolts attacked and pushed Titan aside, it seemed that the attacks were looking for the brothers to comfort them in their uncontrolled way. The park was being each time destroyed without more, but someone was coming because of how obvious those lightning bolts were, a guy who is always crazy and pays no attention to anyone, his attitude that is unwavering and always says his name in every appearance, that's right , that man is.

『CROW-SAMA!!!!!! JUST ARRIVED FOR AFASHSAFYHAFSFHAYYYY HURTS!!!!』

Without further ado Crow appeared winnowed and falling without further ado in the middle, where he first presumed to be overwhelmed by the presence of -A in his Melodisian. Not only Crow arrived, but also the band members of ShinganCrimsonZ and DOKONJOFINGER, but it's not time yet for these guys, as they were overshadowed by the real Hero of this story.

BBOOOMMMMMMM!!!!!! A lightning bolt heading straight for the brothers was stopped by an incredibly powerful fist by someone extremely powerful, he never knew what it was like to be defeated and he never will!!!!

『Don't worry anymore, I'll finish off the villains!!!!! I won't let anyone die!!!!!』-『Hiro, go into action』

With a great determination and his big smile, Hero Hiro enters the scene!!!!
