The Merciless truth

The God Of Memories: Chapter 6: The Merciless Truth

後単

「You lied to me! Kuromon!」I kicked Kuromon away from me,
「Alia-san, I didn't lie, Believe me!」Kuromon's eyes started to get teary eyes,
「I am not normal! I am a crazy 3rd year high school girl! I don't belong in a normal house! I belong to some random hospital!」I yelled at Kuromon who looked really scared,
「Alia-san.....」

After I read the last entry of the diary, I discovered the truth. All my life, I believed that I was a normal 1st year high school girl who live in a normal house, have normal friends and commute to a normal school. I was satisfied with living my life without the help of my parents who died in an accident when I was a kid. I was happy with the life I currently live, everything was going well until I found the diary and Kuromon came out from it. Everything was a lie, Accelia, Kyouko, Meiko.......every person I met are lies.

Kanna Rika, that is me, when I was a kid and saw that person, the way I saw the world. The God Of Time, I renamed him and called him as The God Of Clockworks just because I thought it was cooler. We only talked for a short time but I know he has something wonderful in him, in his soul. After we met, I decided that I will be like him, someone who is awesome and has the feeling that he is going to be a cool Hero. While I was trying to be like him, I somehow lost my way.

When me and my parents were going to visit my grandparents who lives in the countryside, I caused something that distracted my father who was currently driving the car. When he got distracted by me, he suddenly went left and our car fell off from the cliff. Fortunately, I managed to survive with the help of my parents who protected me with their life. After the accident, I was confined in the hospital and I was unable to move most of my body parts except my head. I was able to turn it to left and right but that's all I could do, I couldn't open my mouth to even talk to the nurse who was taking care of me. All I did was stare at the nurse until one day, I saw a purple ball of flame inside the nurse. After I saw the purple flame, my visions suddenly went pitch black and when I was able to see again, in front of me was the nurse's head covered in blood and some of her body parts were all around the room. I killed her without even knowing about it.

「Kuromon......I.....」I lost my speech, I couldn't say anything to Kuromon,
「Alia-san, you have to choose. You are already a God, just like him, you only have to choose now Alia-san. Do you want to stay like this forever or do the favor the diary asked?」Kuromon sat down, he started to look like a normal cat-dragon stuffed toy.
「You can forget everything that you just remembered and go back to your normal life or carry the burden you threw away and atone for your what you did」Kuromon's mouth started to not move when he was talking,
「Kuromon.............?」I approached Kuromon and picked him up,
「Alia-san, I will be always by your side as the Dragon that will protect the God of Memories........」Kuromon's voice started to fade away slowly,
「A choice? I already picked one a long time ago, The God Of Memories....」

「Thank you, Rika」Suddenly, a soft and calming warm voice suddenly echoed inside the room. I assumed it was the person who wrote the last entry in the diary,
「Andeline Lazurite, You can count on me」I replied to Andeline,
「The power to overwrite people's memories.......people's soul, is now yours, please use it for him」
「Yeah, I will not let you down」
「Attend to Aqueas Scale Academy, Everything will be there.......Maher will be there too, never look for him」
「Why won't I look for him?」
「He won't show up if you try to look for him, Lily won't let anyone find him. Maher will show up once you fulfill your task」
「I understand」Lily?
「Enjoy your new life, Rika」

The voice suddenly slowly got smaller until it finally disappear,
「Kuromon, our destination is Aqueas Scale Academy!」I placed Kuromon on top of my head and took out "Accelia Crusher" then I hit the ground with it. The moment Accelia Crusher hit the floor of my room, the floor shattered like a mirror getting smashed. After I hit the floor with Accelia Crusher, everything shattered into a million pieces and every scene I could, suddenly turned into a large amount of trees.....a forest.
「This is where we start all over again」
