The Cyan Simurgh looked at the incoming Disaster Beast.
It was a giant wolf, as tall as two people, and the army in front was being quickly destroyed by the Disaster Beast.
And her cat was trembling, hiding under a small table.
Today, because she did well on her exam, she insisted on her mother taking her out for a treat.
Then, while having cold drinks here, they were suddenly attacked by a Disaster Beast...
Next, next, she had to rescue the cat.
"Do you really want to save the cat?"
A voice asked her, "Your mother is still looking for you, if you go to save the cat..."
Your mother will die.
For so reason, so inexplicable mories surfaced in her mind.
A mother who was killed by a Disaster Beast while protecting her.
Her father, in a furious rage over her mother’s death, beat her and stomped the cat to death.
She kept retreating.
"But don’t you want to save your predecessor?"
The voice said again, "If you don’t go over here, you’ll never know about the Full Bloom Magical Girl, and your predecessor will never awaken, is that okay?"
The Cyan Simurgh stopped again.
No, this isn’t reality.
No, I must have been swallowed by the Heart Image Remains.
This, this is the Heart Image Remains!
Quickly regaining her mory, although a bit confused, the Cyan Simurgh quickly understood what needed to be done.
Reality is reality, reality cannot be changed.
So, she absolutely had to save the cat, and then, endanger her mother...
"Xiaoqing!"
Her mother’s anxious call ca from behind, stopping the Cyan Simurgh, who originally intended to return for the cat.
She didn’t want to turn back.
Once she turned back, she’d have no chance...
"Xiaoqing!"
But that call was just too nostalgic.
No other words were needed, just calling her by her nickna was enough to make her tears start falling uncontrollably.
It was a flawless voice, even evoking her mories.
She almost forgot what her mother’s voice sounded like.
Not from a recorder, not the sowhat distorted voice from TV, but the real voice, transmitted through the air to her ears.
A gentle feeling, as if warming and filling her whole body.
"Co quickly, Xiaoqing!"
However, her mother never ca over, only called from a distance.
It wasn’t actually like this.
At that ti, her mother was always chasing her, which was why she got killed by the Disaster Beast.
Because she insisted on saving the cat.
It was all her fault, all because she insisted on saving, what cat!
If, at that ti, she hadn’t gone to save the cat...
"Xiaoqing!"
Her mother’s anxious voice sounded behind her, and the Cyan Simurgh could even predict.
As long as she rushed toward the cat, her mother would follow in the next second, and then be killed by the Disaster Beast.
She should run over, hold the cat, and then watch her mother die.
Then leave here, go to find the secrets within the Heart Image Remains, find the secrets of the Full Bloom Magical Girl, to save the predecessor who has been unable to wake up because of her...
She knew everything.
But when her mother’s scent drifted over from behind on the wind, lingering on the tip of her nose, that familiar scent from childhood was not far behind, and she had the chance to redo it, to make up for the unforgivable mistake...
What does knowing everything matter?
That was her mother!
Suddenly, the familiar scent enveloped her again, and the Cyan Simurgh saw the hands she had been longing for.
Erging from behind, holding her in an embrace.
The Cyan Simurgh lowered her head, grabbing those hands, almost no different from her childhood mories.
The texture of the palms, the warmth, the feel of the skin, almost exactly the sa.
How could it be fake?
"Mom, I really miss you, mom, Dad and I have always wanted to see you again..."
She whimpered and cried, clutching her mother’s hand tightly, tears falling little by little on that hand, just like when she was a child, feeling wronged and sad.
"Don’t cry, don’t cry, Xiaoqing." Her mother gently touched her face, wiping away her tears, "Mom’s here, it’s okay."
Intending to take her away, the Cyan Simurgh just stood unmoving in tears, her whole body trembling as if in fear.
"Don’t be afraid, Xiaoqing." Her mother imdiately bent down to touch her head.
Then picked her up, running toward a safe place: "You must have gone through a lot..."
The quiet sobbing suddenly turned into loud wailing.
She leaned into her mother’s embrace, almost unable to lift her head.
The sound, the scent, the touch, everything was almost indistinguishable from reality.
She wanted so badly to look up and see her mother again.
But she still didn’t look up, just held her mother tightly.
"Mom, I really miss you."
"Yes, mom knows."
"Mom, I really love you."
"Yes, don’t say that at a ti like this, silly girl."
"Mom, I’m also, I’m really sorry, it was who killed you, father will not forgive , I will never forgive myself either."
Watching as the Cyan Simurgh, who had been bowing her head, suddenly jumped out of her embrace, stopping in her tracks, her mother couldn’t help but stop too, just looking at her confusedly, "What’s wrong, Xiaoqing."
The Cyan Simurgh turned her head, facing away from her mother, facing the Disaster Beast, "So, mom, I can’t let anyone else die because of , I never want to let anyone else die again."
"What’s gotten into you? You should start running!"
"I can’t, I can’t turn back now." The Cyan Simurgh, with her back to her mother, held her hand tightly. "So..."
