The world seed to watch upon the scene as Carlia, with narrowed eyes, her mana stifling, and her mind running with resentnt, walked away from the gathering toward a specific hut. It was located quite far from the current location of the party. Her mind could not believe this level of betrayal without having to see it with her own eyes.
As she got closer to the hut, the sounds of the debauchery taking place inside beca more audible. The familiar voices made Carlia and Carl both feel a sense of extre anger in their minds. The window to the large hut was left open, as if for the world to see the darkness happening within.
The sight turned Carlia's eyes even harder as the power of betrayal filled the body of the good friend, nearly destroying the one good relationship she felt she had in a long ti.
'Why?....'
Carlia asked herself as she simply gazed into the scene. Her throat constricted, her stomach churned, and she felt disgust filling her mind. The scene before her was one of pleasure, the room filled with three won and four n, the dynamics changing, the postures changing, with the expressions of pleasure clear on their faces.
"How would you like that? You bitchy princess?!"
Nix scread in pleasure as he tried to dominate the woman riding above him. His lewd call, as if he were doing it with Carl, made everything she had eaten rise to her mouth, her legs weakening as she watched lvin and another man being played with by another woman, his pleasure evident as he too seed lost in so kind of fantasy of his.
'Is this love? Is this care? Is this what everything had amounted to?....'
While that question haunted Carl, her mind started to fracture. The secrets of a past that she so dearly tried to hide resurfaced in her mind. Her body felt wobbly, and her eyes turned extrely red, while Carlia tried to hold onto any sense of balance she could, trying to protect Carl from returning to that very mory that led to the fracture.
But it was of no use. The fear of love Carl holds, the insistent desire for familiar love, and the reason for rejecting true romantic love, all started to flood Carl's mind. The control was brought back to her as she vomited.
"Blurgh!....no!....No!...NO!....STOP!"
Even as she tried, those mories coiled around her mind, never letting her go. Her innate dislike for sex and her disgust toward the concept of having romantic sex ca into play, her biggest nightmare about that ti slowly fading in. Her body instinctively ran, her power and mana coming into play as she ran like there was no end.
Her body broke past its normal speed as she just ran without looking or thinking. She just wanted to run away, to run away from that scene, to not hear the moans of pleasure, the breaking of her heart and mind as her trauma slowly started to take over. Thus, she kept running.
Her body seemingly beca phantom-like as the clouds darkened around the sky. She seemingly passed through several things as she finally, losing her sense of pain, fell upon the ground, becoming human.
"Huff....hufff...no...no.....please don't co back!"
Carl held her head, trying to stop those scenes from flashing in her mind. Her body started to curl around, even Carlia herself seed to have fallen, as she too suffered with the dangers of the illusion, taking it in such that the two of them started to suffer, missing the small light starting to gather around.
'Why?.....why did things have to beco like this?! I am alone in the end, aren't I?'
As Carl and Carlia took in those feelings, her body only started to feel heavier. Didn't Nix and lvin promise her in the past that they would be with her? That they wouldn't beco like that scum? That they genuinely felt sothing for her? And now she is foolishly alone......again.
'Right.....I am not even ant to be loved,'
Carl mused, Carlia falling to the sa scene of pain, the constriction of everything started to bind her mind. In the end, even her dear teacher left after that, and she had now even pushed her junior brother away, a guy had called her his family on the first eting.
'Things are ant to be like this, there is just lust, no love.'
As such thoughts started to crawl into her mind, Carl and Carlia started to fall into their delusion, and just before the last straw could break, she heard a voice.
"Princess?"
The call felt close yet distant as Carl, unfurling from her curl, turned to look at Austin standing a bit farther away from her. His body seed soaked in blood and sweat as he, with shaking eyes, looked at her. The whole scene seemingly flashed sothing within her, a mory she didn't know she had, overlapping the scene in front of her with that scene, yet the difference being that the Austin back then was a much younger version.
'What is this?'
Carl asked herself, her mind shaking, as a mory she seemingly didn't know she had slowly started to unravel itself. Austin rushed to her, gently cradling her body as he looked down at her, the scene once again flashing to a past scene as sothing overlapped.
"Carl are you okay?!"
'Carl are you okay?!'
'What is this? Carlia, what is happening?'
'It's an untapped mory.'
Carlia, who regained herself just like Carl, replied. Her words sounded taut but even then a certain warm feeling filled both of them as they gazed at the deep worry in Austin's eyes. The previous stone-cold deanor had softened a lot as he picked her up in a princess style.
"What happened?"
Austin asked but Carl and Carlia were both lost in the sa hug, seemingly as if it had happened before. Her hand raised itself to hold his face as she asked.
"Tell , have we t before?"
The weakness in her voice made Austin's face harder. Both girls didn't miss the change in Austin's expression at the mont, the words she said before overlapped with the current scenario. Certain suspicions beca stronger as the two girls asked themselves.
"Why can't I rember?"
Everything felt confusing to Carl, who felt as if she was missing an important piece.
"We shouldn't be here!"
Austin shouted as he tried to run away with Carl, but before he could seemingly get out, the light in the ground lit up, and it was then that Carl noticed that they were in so place special. The shining light blinded the two of them as everything went dark.
.....
"Urgh....."
Carl let out a silent moan of pain, her mind still not okay as she sat up, her gaze looking around as she seemingly sat in sothing of a magic circle, all around red torches seemingly placed around her with flas on them, lighting up a certain eerie feeling all around. And before she could even respond, the flas started to gather around, turning into a certain spirit form.
"A broken mind, a shattered innocence, and an unwilling past hidden from the mind, tsk.....tsk....tsk...you really are a container with lots of issues."
The seemingly gathered fla spoke, to which with confusion Carl asked.
"Where is this? What happened? Where is Austin?!"
At her shout, the fla gathered to show Austin seemingly floating in a red space. Before Carl could speak, the fla continued.
"I am the guardian spirit guiding the challengers towards the solution to the cursed past and you are in my trial. Since this boy has passed it before, there is no need for him but it doesn't an he can just enter my trial again."
At these words, Carl, holding her head, tried to piece things together, the situation clearing up a bit as Austin had already spoken to her about the whole thing to be done in order to get the cure to help her sister. Though the latter ending of the fire spirit's words made Carl's face harden.
"What do you an by that?"
She asked, trying to put strength into her body.
"It's simple, he needs to be punished."
As the fla said this, Austin's body seemingly started to get hotter. Seeing this, Carl scread out.
"No! It's not his fault! It's mine!"
"Still, it doesn't change the fact that he rushed into the trial again, after having been given orders not to."
The majesty in the fire spirit's words got higher, as did the suffering seemingly being inflicted on Austin.
'No....no....no.....it's my fault!'
