TERLOH
FOREST
Sofia is sitting under a peach tree as the sound of monsters could be heard in the far distance. There are no villages or settlent of humans around here after the Fall.
In front of her is vast tall grass and tall trees that almost reached the clouds.
The wind blows and her hair waves gracefully
She smiles as she leans her back onto the tree and rests her body there.
This is where she and Azief truly becos a comrade.
She still rembers what he said back then
‘This is a world of wolfs. The world doesn’t care whether you do good or evil! It will still keep moving unceasingly, caring nothing about us, mortals! It does not care a bit about good or evil! The world doesn’t judge n by their worth, and it isn’t about what just! Evil n can hold power their whole lives and be wept for when they pass. Innocent n can be spent like coins because it’s convenient. I will not be like that! IF THE WORLD DOES NOT WANT TO HELP , THEN I WILL FIGHT THE WORLD! IF THE WORLD DARE OBSTRUCT, I WILL DESTROY IT! In this new era, I would raise hell, so that in my death, everyone would rember my na! I will carve my na in history! How about it Sofia? Will you follow ?’
At that ti, those words sounded like a child dreams. But years has passed and the man that made that declaration has fulfilled all of his declaration.
He fights not only the world but also the Heavens and win.
And he could destroy the Earth and suppressed the Heavens. He raises hell wherever he goes and his na reverberate through the seven continents of the world.
He carved his na as the strongest man in the world. There is no one that does not know the na Death Monarch.
What a glorious declaration and what a glorious life he had led.
His legendary deeds won him the admiration of all the heroes of the world
That day, she lost her mother and she is on the verge of breaking down. Azief always felt that Sofia kept him from breaking down during those dark days.
But it is also true for Sofia. Azief kept her from breaking down.
So were even calling her pact with Death Monarch as the Promise beneath the Peach Tree. But there was sothing else he promised her that day.
He promised her that she and him against the world. That was his promise to her.
“ and you” he said.’
And Sofia doesn’t know if he could keep that promise to her. So, she is giving him a chance right now. A chance to make a new story with either her or Katarina.
She already makes her decision.
She loves him and she knows that he loves her too.
But she doesn’t want to be the second woman. Whether it is pride or because she hated that feeling, she couldn’t share him with others.
So, she is giving him a chance to let her go and she want to give herself a chance to let go of him.
If he chooses her, then she would at least feel at ease. She hated the woman she is becoming. Paranoid, jealous and envious.
She hated feeling like that so she is here…. waiting for him to make a choice. She knows that she might not like the decision that is to co.
But she must love and she must feel. She could not lock up he heart in so vault and let it die.
And if for so reason, that her heart is broken, or betrayed, or left feeling hurt, she would sit under this peach tree and listen to the wind.
Then she would take one of the peach fruit and eat it, tasting its sweetness and sour taste and console herself that she had dared risk her heart regardless of its cost.
She would tell herself that she did good.
As she looked at the sky, she saw a dot coming towards her and an unreadable expression appears on her face.
