Chapter 61 – The Girl Bound by the Past

Warning: Sad chapter and cliff.

It was because of the bad news that his niece brings back.

Of course, he didn’t believe it at first.

No matter how long he waited, his little sister who always shows her figure every time she finished her job still won’t show up. And he at last became aware of the truth.

No matter how many times he was told about the news, he still won’t believe it. The feelings inside the man’s heart which losing its destination is slowly turning into a bottomless vortex of nihility.

No feeling can reach.

When his niece who had lost her parent asked him whether she can stay in the house, he just gave her back one word: “Whatever”.

His niece seemed to misunderstand the man because he kept shutting himself inside his room and started to give the man money from time to time.

While keeping himself alive longer, he spends all those money to the thing that might fulfill his dearest wish: a forbidden magic.

Resurrection Magic.

Life started everything then it will be ended with death.

This magic is an act of treason against that nature law as it delves in the domain that is forbidden for a mere mortal to touch.

And then, like having been waiting for this time to come, someone suddenly appears behind him at that exact timing. But the man didn’t seem to be surprised as he just casually turns back his head to take a glance at this sudden guest.

“No no, it was just a mere coincidence. Rather than that ---- it seems to be completed yes?”

“All the necessary things should have already been assembled. Isn’t that right ---- Radis Saxton?”

◇

While Rebecca is lying on top of her shabby bed inside her private room, she thoughtlessly whispers that word as she gazes at the bracelet that wraps her right hand.

Since meeting with Renya and his party, she feels that her usual flat emotional condition had begun to have quite a clear undulation in them.

After losing her older brother and mother, she’s been living with her uncle whose eyes already dead and holing himself up all the time which made her feeling died down too. But who can guess that in this short one week, she can feel that she herself had changed so much.

And the reason for that is because, she already has a family that she should cherish.

When Mother takes older brother in, she doesn’t even try to hide that fact and heartily said it out loud. When I think about it now, that was indeed a thing inappropriate to say to a little kid. But well, because of that carelessness, it made her think that being a family is not that big of a deal and could easily accepted her new family like that. It was all thanks to her mother being straightforward about things that she can easily understands them.

Her older brother had a knack at using twin swords and it was also him who taught her the basic of dual wielding fighting style.

Her older brother praises her for her talent in swordsmanship and her mother praises her for her talent in enchanting magic.

Even if her mastery level in each of the two skill were still unable to match the other, if she used her various sword skill while under the effect of enchant magic, even while she is the youngest among her family, she won’t become a burden for her mother and older brother.

And that fact is making Rebecca proud with herself.

But then she knows that even that could easily crumbles apart. And it was half a year ago.

The herd of monsters came attacking all of the sudden without any kinds of warning made the other escort panicked. The only one who could still keep their calm was only his older brother and mother, only those two.

No one, with the exception of Rebecca.

[Just leave it to us. Mom and your older brother would definitely not get beaten by just that number of monsters right? Rather than that, I entrust the safety of the merchant in your hand okay?]

With those words full of confidence from the two of them, Rebecca finally gave in and she then led the merchant’s caravan to the best of her abilities to find a safe place as per how her family entrusted her with.

After a short rest, Rebecca went back to the road she had taken. If she just follows the road then she will definitely meet up with them.

Am I there yet?

Where are they?

While thinking such things in her mind, Rebecca kept on moving her leg towards her destination. And then, what awaits for her there was a cruel truth that is thrust before her.

Indeed all the monsters had been eliminated.

On the wasteland not far away from the main road.

The corpse of the two, who had used up all their strength, was still intact without any sign of being eaten in the least.

That was an unforgettable scene for Rebecca even until now.

Her brother corpse collapsed on top of her mother corpse like trying to cover her.

She clung to those cold bodies that had long lost all its warmth. The sadness from losing a family member and the lament from her own powerlessness which indirectly leads to this result made her continue crying for quite a while.

After that, she then brings this news to her uncle and managed to finish the funeral service but her uncle then started to hole himself up as the result of the sudden bad news.

That’s why, the moment when she returns to this dark desolate room, her heart suddenly got crushed under by the feeling of worry and insecure.

Her uncle would probably, sometime in the future, turn back to the kind uncle he was before while her mother still alive.

Well, even if ‘taking care’ sounds grand, what she actually did was only handing him some money. Because even if she tried to do more than that, her uncle just won’t recognize it at all.

Even when she tried to prepare food, he didn’t even turn his sight to her.

Even when she steeled her heart trying to talk to him, he totally ignores her.

So what Rebecca can do for him finally shrinks down into only giving him some money from time to time.

To Rebecca who didn’t inherit her mother pushy nature, that is the limit of what she can do for him. If it was mother who sees how terrible her uncle condition is, she definitely will drag him out, slap him in the face, and then scold him hysterically. And after that, she will admonish him so he will get back to the right track.

Well, her mother was laughing at her saying that it was good that she didn’t inherit her un-ladylike fierce temper but at times like this, she really wish she inherits that traits too. She could only feel sadness every time she put money on her uncle’s table.

While thinking such things, Rebecca heavy eyelids are closing slowly.

At the same moment she falls asleep, the door of her room which supposed to be closed are getting silently opened.

“……… And the place?”

“……… You really are meticulous”

“……… Oh really. But I will let myself be you bastards’ puppet for this time being…… This is only for the sake of my dearest wish I tell you”

While saying that, the man in black robe takes Rebecca who is still fast asleep under his arm and leaves the room.

◇

Rebecca awakened from her slumber from feeling a sense of discomfort and tried to get up but she can’t.

The room where she lies is had a very high ceiling that she can’t even confirm it with her sight.

“…… So you have woke up”

Hearing her uncle voice that she hadn’t heard in awhile made her shivers.

She just couldn’t find any similarity between the man looking down on her and the uncle she used to know in the past. Moreover, his voice that is filled with bone-piercing ice cold emotion just made Rebecca can’t stop shivering.

“……… Yeah, let’s”

“That girl……… I will take Ribeira back to this world”

Take back? Who? Dead person?

“……… Resurrect…… the dead?”

“……… Such thing is…… impossible……!”

Against her uncle who speaks with hollow emotion, Rebecca couldn’t do anything except trembling in fear.

And then seeing their misfortune as a chance, that man in black robe must come along the ride to instigate her uncle into an even worse situation! There is no doubt about it. That was how Rebecca concluded as she glares at the black robed man.

Radis silently lift up his right arm and began gathering his magic power.

Or does she laments herself of being powerless in stopping her uncle?

But even so, she still has one thing that she wants to ask her uncle no matter what.

“……… Why………?”

“………”

That’s why, I don’t care.

Do as you wish.

In this half a year, everything that she did for her uncle doesn’t reach him at all.

“……… Is…… that so……”

She believed that the smile that she once saw would return back.

But the truth is, her uncle doesn’t recognize her existence, he even doesn’t put her inside his view at all.

As Rebecca realizes that, the magic formula construction is finished and the spell is activating.

The little girl is slowly enveloped by the muddy darkness and gets buried under it.

Eros: The feels. I translated this one quickly because of the story. will do my best to update this quickly.
