Life 1.You,the one Shouldering The Fate of Dreams

 “So can you explain to me in detail,how do you summoned me? why do you summoned me? And what your really purpose for entering Rating Game ?”

I ask her while slurping a tea in her “house”, ahh so solemn ,ohh yeah for your information this place is not like the usual house,it was a small room in the basement,with one bed,a wardrobe,a sofa and table only fit for two people,in other words this is really feels like a emergency house when there is a disaster, poor girl

“ehem..before I answer you question,can you make a contract with me first?”

On the surface Selene's expression did not change, but inside she felt intense turmoil.

And that was because Taiga's question was exactly about what she tried to hide

“why? are you afraid of something..something that you hide from me?"

"no no no..That is... just as I said before. For you to enjoy a contest strength..."

"Aah, that's right. At first I thought it was purely out of someone's goodwill, or just a joke. I was having an extreme bargain sale of boredom so I didn't concern myself with your situation, but.... To me ojou-chan looks desperate somehow."

That was the first time Selene let her distress show.

Her eyes trembled and looked back at him like he just hit her where it hurts.

"This is just my hunch, but .... Isn't Ojou-chan’s Family a powerless - or due to some circumstances - a degraded Family, or something along those lines? So you called me to strengthen the Family. If I assume that this is the case, then your actions right now all makes sense. .... So? Bullseye right?"

".......!"

Selene bitterly clicked her tongue in her mind. Having that fact come out at this point would be very inconvenient.

an assets she managed to summon after much hardship even she don’t know he is powerful or not, she wanted to avoid letting him go at all costs.

"And you’re trying hid this fact from me. Judging by that, I should still be able to choose a different Family or live on my own way, am I on the right track?"

"........."

"Your silence tells me everything Ojou-chan. If you keep quiet at this point the situation will only get worse. Or is it alright with you if I going from here?"

"No, i-it isn't! Wait a moment please!"

"That's what I'm doing, aren't I? Just tell me everything without keeping anything."

Taiga put down his tea on the table and took a listening pose. But to Selene, telling everything about the state of her Family was too big of a risk.

(At least if he would have noticed it after he make a contract servant--!)

After he make the contract servant he couldn't have left easily, even if the truth came out. she were planning on having him lend his strength for the bit-by-bit restoration of her family, but it seems she really had terrible luck. The opponents were too..smart

"If you won't tell me anything, then you won't. I'll just have to go on my own way."

"... If I tell you ... Will you assist me?"

"Yeah. If it's interesting enough."

He was laughing loudly, but still, his eyes were not.

selene realized at last that her sight was clouded.

It seems this frivolous looking boy's eyes were intently trying to grasp what [The World of Kingdom Hearts] is like.

"....Understood. Then I will tell you about my..Family’s terrible situation, as entertainingly as possible."

Selene cleared her throat. She was doing this mainly out of desperation.

"Firstly, Just like you said my Family has been degrades because some event. Therefore when someone meet me as a sole survivor from Bael Family, they refer to me as a Traitor."

"Hee ... Rough treatment, huh? Then?"

"Furthermore, our rank that represents the pride of my Family has been revoked. This Rank also fills the important role of indicating the Rank in the Devil Society."

"Hmm. Then?"

"Beside that,I don't have any member right now. To put it more bluntly, entire of my family has been annihilated or prisoned by a our government and I’m the only survivor who can get my Family’s glory back!"

"Truly on the brink of destruction, huh!"

"...."

feeling dejected at Taiga's composed words, Selene bumped her head against her knees with a thump. Saying it out loud, she couldn't help but think that her Family is really at the end of its life.

"And how did it come to that? Is your Family has just defeated like that ?"

"No, my parent’s and their servant has been obliterate by the hands of the other fraction in Kingdom Hearts, the greatest calamity... a [Evil God]."

Hearing the words [Evil God], Taiga, who was only nodding so far, raised his voice for the first time.

"E...Evil God!?"

His eyes sparkled like a child who just noticed a new toy in the display window.

"Evil God! What the hell, how cool is that!? There is someone in this world who's called by that wonderful name?"

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

"We-Well ... Yes. But it's probably a little different from your imagination."

"Really? But if he calls himself Evil God, then he must be powerful, diabolical, tough as hell scoundrel that no-one minds if I crush with all I have."

"We-Well ... if you defeat one, you will probably receive a lot of gratitude from a lot of places. Depending on the conditions it may be possible to make one your servant after you defeated it."

"Hoo"

"The Evil God are certain deities that belong to a special privileged class in Kingdom Hearts who have the authority that if someone is challenged by them to a Rating Game’s, it's over, no one can refuse. Our leader in Devil Government or you can called Demon Lord were challenged to a Game by a Evil God, forced to participate, and obliterated ... My family as the one who hold Great King Rank has to take over as the government leader but someone backstab and accused us that we has been compromised by Evil God,and the one who make the Demon Lord defeated."

This wasn't a figure of speech either. Selene's Family was accused over something that they didn’t do and robbed of its status, prestige and even all its family. All that remained was ruined vacant land and herself. However Taiga did not show any signs of sympathy, he only reshuffled his legs while sitting.

“And what happen next?”

“Yes,just like I said our family did not falter even has been accused by them,so one night our family attacked by them with an assistance a Evil God..my parent’s trying to defend but the enemy is too powerful so they made decision to hide me in the safe room and fight back..of course it’s a futile resistance,when morning came,I get out from there and see something that I will never forget forever on my life..many of member family has been executed,there is some that captured and my parents…beheaded by them..after that My family fell to ruins when I was still a child, I’ve been driven out of my territory, and was branded a traitor; discriminated and persecuted by those around me; I was all alone. Like that, I had neither friends nor family, and I kept fighting the loneliness for my dream which will let me puff up my chest with pride towards my peers.”

“ ….”

“Maybe when I put it into words, the contents don’t even take up as many as 110 odd words, but for me it amounts to 16 years of my life…”

Selene put both her hands against her chest and stopped speaking.

“so we can say that you don’t have a rank,servant and nothing to indicate a territory..what’s your plan? “

Taiga's point was valid. A Family without a Rank can't display its pride and cannot gain people's trust. The lack of an Rank in this World of Kingdom Hearts means your Family and existence won't be recognized by others.

That is why Selene bet her hopes on such a last resort method as summoning servant from other worlds.

"I-I want to regain my Family Glory back. However if it’s just that then it would be no good! What I want more than anything ... is to regain and protect what my parent has left behind for me, that is what I can do as their daughter for them…and I always think it as memento from my parents"

To regain and protect a memento that her parent’s left behind. That was the first time Selene words reflected her true feelings.

To regain and protect a memento that her parent’s left behind that has lost because a [Evil God] and their cronies, she vowed to reaching her dream, even if it means she will be frowned upon by their surroundings.

"Its a thorny path. But while try reaching my dream, I will slowly rebuild my family ... and someday, I want to reclaim everything that supposed to be for my family and display it proudly. To that end there is no choice for me, but to rely on powerful servant! I know it’s egoist for me to ask it but would you lend your strength to me.....!?"

"...Phuun. Pride and Eternal Glory from the Evil God..."

She was asking with a deep bow. In contrast to that Taiga responded with an apathetic voice to her obligatory confession. His attitude was like he didn't even listen to what Selene said.

Selene's shoulders dropped and she looked like she was about to cry.

(If he refuses at this point ... my dream will ... )

Selene bit her lips. If it leads to such regret, it would have been better to explain everything from the beginning.

The person in question, Taiga, sluggishly rearranged his crossed legs and after a good 3 minutes of silence,

"Sounds fun, that."

".............Huh?"

"Don't 'Huh?' me. I said I will cooperate. Be a bit more happy, Ojou-chan.", said Taiga sounding displeased

"E....W-what? Is this where this was headed?"

"It was. Or you don't need me? If you say rude things I will really go somewhere else."

"Do-Don't do that, don't do that, you absolutely mustn't do that! I need you,Taiga-san!"

"Honesty is best. Now let’s do it the contract servant."

"Ye-Yes!"
