29 Chapter 29 - The Will of a regretful person

I thought the last thing I remembered was entering the operating room. Honestly, it was very difficult for me to maintain consciousness with the intense burning and pain from the place where I was stabbed.

Even with the adrenaline high and the blood probably running low, it was hard for me to look around or think at all. With many thoughts in my mind and the urge to scream from the pain.

I kept trying to find Ai...

Then, when I saw Ai, who looked unhurt, it made me feel weak and thankful that she was okay. I think Ai seemed to be saying something. However, there was little I could hear. I was mainly focused on staying conscious because I was actually quite scared if I passed out and woke up in a different world once again.

Even so...

Once again, I woke up in another place. It was such an unfamiliar place, but I feel like I have seen it before. It was just a white space with a small mist that only covered the lower part of my body.

I thought I had seen this before… Yeah, it feels like what I see in the movie. An old movie…

"I think this is like the same place meeting a god in an old movie… wait… what's the name of the movie?"

"It's called Bruce Almighty…"

"Ah… Yes, that's it."

I clapped my hands as a gesture that the voice was giving me the title I was trying to remember while slowly looking in the direction the voice was coming from. Then there stood someone I knew quite well but who was far different from what I had imagined. Because that person looked very similar to Aqua. Only, he looked a little older, but his eyes glinted like a dead fish.

"So, are you a god or what?" I could ask him without being scared. I meant that, after seeing these kinds of things, I couldn't help but realize that I might die once again. Well, although I didn't experience this in my first death. But I felt a little more understanding.

"Me… God? I wish I were god…" He answered while giving a defeated smile. "Rather than God. I am just a reincarnator like you or someone who has just gotten his wish granted."

"You know, that's quite confusing."

"Maybe… Anyway, I'm not God or something like that… and just someone who you already expected."

"I wonder what name you prefer to call?"

"Just call me Gorou… Since we're both Aqua after all…"

In my mind, I was screaming as expected…

"Well, so what happened here? Am I dead or something?"

"Yeah… Technically… You're dead. But luckily you survived long enough and were lucky enough to earn a star."

"Star?"

"Yeah, star. What do you think is the reason our father killed those people."

"Well… Because he is psycho?"

"That might be true. But what is the point in getting that?"

"To be honest, I don't know how this works. But you know that most people who had those stars had their own characteristics that made them successful, especially in this industry. I don't know how our father knew about this stuff. But he found that if he killed those people directly or indirectly, it could steal their spark... and gain something for it."

"That sounds barbaric, isn't it…"

"Un… but thanks to that we can meet like this."

"But how… I don't think about doing anything. Wait, are you saying someone died? It wasn't Ai or maybe Ruby, right?"

"It wasn't them, but rather than the girl that stabbed you. In the first place, she wasn't that strong mentally, which is why she easily got influenced. She lost her lover and career, and now there is news about her stabbing a famous child actor. Of course, it became bigger, and the backlash would be awful. She couldn't handle it and thought you died and killed herself."

"She deserves it… She stabbed me to death after all… Is there anything else?"

"I don't think so. I just want to say thank you. I guess. Even though you may be really sloppy in the end, you granted my wish…"

"So, you are the reason I was reborn in this world?" I asked that question. There were many suspicious things he said, and when he just smiled at me without answering my question. It showed me that my suspicion was right…

He told me about this occult stuff, and he looked much older than I knew. He thanked me for granting his wish while at the same time saying that because of me… we could meet here. Also, to be honest, seeing his appearance, I think I kind of understand what happened.

"So you're finally killed your father. huh…"

"Yeah. Even though, in my case, I lost everything. That makes me wonder how other people do?"

Gorou said it with such a tired and sad face. His smile was kind of self-pitying, maybe.

"In the end, it feels like seeing a fallen star, so I wish to correct my regret. But it looks like I got the lowest possibility. Maybe because I don't have enough stars or something. I don't know how god works after all.. I guess…" He continued, and one of his comments was like an insult to me.

"Well, sorry about that."

"It's fine. Even though it's really bad, in the end, my wish to see Ai saved is granted."

"That's it? What about the father?"

I questioned him, but he looked at me as if this was not his problem.

"It's up to you. In the end, my wish was granted, which looked true. Sometimes I don't know how this star works after all."

"Isn't that too ambiguous? I mean, whatever happens in the future, our father is still here too. So she may still be in a dangerous state."

"Well, my time is up… which means my wish has been granted. It is very likely our father's attention changed from Ai's to other people. He was a twisted person after all.."

Once again, it was kind of ambiguous. Wait, isn't this conversation like I wasn't dead or something.

"Anyway, my time is up already. It feels like people are calling you. While I still have a little bit to help you wake up. Although there may be many glitches in the future. But I think it will be better than dying." Gorou said while walking toward me, and as soon as he came close to me. He continued his words.

"Ah, btw… I hope you can take care of everyone too."

"Wait, what do you mean about that?" I answered.

Gorou smiled weakly and answered with some kind of disturbing answer.

"You came back from the dead. Of course, there's a price to pay as well as consequences that you need to pay."

"Wait… That's quite concerning…"

"Anyway, please take care of everyone… Especially those two… Akane and Kana… I really wronged them in my life."

Gorou said that as the mist slowly took him out and the mist started filling my vision until I couldn't see anything. Before, slowly, I could see a bright light that dazzling my eyes that shut my eyes, and when I slowly opened my eyes.

I woke up in a patient room filled with the smell of medicine everywhere. It was like I was back in the real world and had successfully gotten out of the weird reality.

"This… so I'm really alive. Huh…" I said while the pain slowly could be felt by me. "Ouch, it hurts… But well… which means I really came back."

Even though I seemed to be dreaming, I was pretty sure I was saved by a ghost or perhaps the soul of Gorou, who was still inside this body. This kind of stuff feels like such a troupe in the anime world.

"Once again, I need to remember that I live in this kind of world."

It was such a troupe, but I am really thankful for that.
