A Liliful World: Yuri Reincarnation

The cold winter wind touches every inch of my skin; the screams of silence resounded all around the darkness, there was not a single sight to be seen… it felt like an eternity had passed by, but it also feels like a second had only passed. I couldn’t cling onto anybody; couldn’t cry to anybody nor could I scream to anybody to save me.

 

I tried to run away from this emptiness but no matter how far I ran, no matter how much energy I exhausted… I returned back to the starting point. It was as if there was no exit from the start, an endless pit of darkness that slowly consumes each piece of me… I felt weak, limply resting on this darkness, staring into nothingness.

 

“What am I doing here…?” I mumbled to myself, repeating such a simple question, “Why am I here… why am I inside this darkness… how long have I been here… what can I do… what do I really want to do…?”

 

The darkness felt suffocating, a pool of teeth biting each piece of me. The coldness consumed the heat inside of me, the air inside was reducing each passing moment… I couldn’t think of any joyful events, nor could I feel any happiness… I felt undeniable sad for no reason.

 

“Aren’t you too weak?” a voice resounded from the left.

 

I looked towards my left where a lady with long brown braided hair rested, her blue eyes reflected this sorrowful figure of mine… it felt like I was looking at the same person but an even more mature, self-reliant, and confident version… she looked stronger than me, not physically but emotionally and mentally.

 

“Fine, do you want to see something that will wake you up?” she asked before I nodded out of instinct as she flicked her finger before the two of us stood up all of a sudden. The darkness vanished, turning into a medieval city, one that was in chaos.

 

The houses nearby were in crumbles, flames bursts left and right and screams for help, cries of sadness resounded everywhere. The entire city looked familiar to me… it felt like the same city I lived in with Mana, Flora, and Leisha.

 

“Stay here, okay?” a voice suddenly whispered from behind as I turned around before Mana stood there, dressed in her battle uniform with a single wooden wand in her hand. There were slices on her supposedly clean cheeks, blood dripped from her cheeks as she looked at a child who looked exactly like Flora but a more teenage version.

 

The child carried a wooden bow with vines entangling on it… the child was undeniably Flora but an older version of her… I felt like running after her and hugging her tight, but it was as if the two of them couldn’t see me.

 

“Mwama…” the child looked at the lady who looked like Mana before nodding as the lady smiled before running out from the cover.

 

In an instant, dozens of arrows flew past the lady, shocking my heart as I tried to run towards her but there was this weird strong resistance stopping my feet from moving. I could only stare at her as she cast a fireball, throwing the ball in a direction as it exploded.

 

The edges of the arrows slice through her skin, causing her body to bleed as she ran towards another cover before peeking out as she cast another fireball but a larger variant, smashing the fireball onto a house as it instantly turned to ashes.

 

“Let’s go!” the lady shouted to the child who soon nodded, running towards her as the two of them hid behind a fragile concrete wall.

 

“Mwama…” the child touched the cheeks of the lady, tears on her eyes as the lady simply smiled at her before all of a sudden, a blue dot appeared on the child’s forehead, shocking the lady as she screamed.

 

“FLORA!”

 

In an instant, a blue streak could be seen flying towards the child but without hesitating, the lady who looked like Mana intercepted the streak with her body, hugging the child tightly as the streak pierced through her chest, penetrating her heart.

 

“Flora… Mama… loves… you… please… live… on…..” the lady whispered into the child’s ear before falling limply to the floor as her eyes closed, a smile could be seen on her lips that was drenched in blood. Her body swam through the pool of her own blood as the child widened her eyes.

 

“Mwama…” the child kneeled before the lady, tears dripping from her eyes as she lifted the lady’s head, kissing her on the forehead as she cried, “Mwama… why…”

 

After a few moments of resisting, the resistance on my feet vanished allowing me to run towards them as I looked at the lady who was really Mana but a more mature version of her… I felt my heart crumble, a staggering amount of pain filled my chest.

 

“Mana…” I looked at the lady, moist filled my eyes as I kneeled beside the child who was undoubtedly Flora, looking at the two of them as hopelessness fills me.

 

“Mwama…” the child murmured as she hugged the pale lady’s body before all of a sudden, she looked at me with a blue dot on her forehead. It felt like time had stopped in an instant as I tried to hug the child who looked at me with anger.

 

It was as if she was peering through the depths of my heart, her anger was immeasurable… I felt a pain inside of me as I walked towards the child who looked at me with disdain. I felt undeniably weak as the child smiled at me before she said, “Aywumi-ma… Flora and Mwama loves you.”

 

In an instant, after she finished her words, a blue streak pierced through her head. The blue streak pierced cleanly, passing through my body that was like a hologram. The child looked at me with a smile as she fell onto the lady’s embrace, creating a pool of their own blood.

 

I felt the pain inside of me increase as I looked at the two… tears dripped from my cheeks as I tried to hug the two of them… I couldn’t hold the tears inside of me as I screamed, “NOOOOOOO!”

 

“NO… This can’t be happening…” I screamed. It felt too real, the heat of their bodies to even the single bits of rocks on the floor.

 

It didn’t feel like a dream… I felt horrified, touching their cheeks that felt cold… I couldn’t breathe at all, it felt suffocating. I didn’t want to breathe anymore; I want to close my eyes and sleep beside them… I wanted to find a sword.

 

“Why…?” I asked before an endless number of tears fell from my eyes, falling towards their cheeks as I placed my head on the lady’s embrace. It really felt like Mana… I can never be wrong about it, the two of them felt like the people I loved.

 

“Is this all you can do?” a voice called out from behind as I turned around before another version of me stood there with her eyes frowned. It was as if she was filled with anger as she looked at me like some kind of idiot.

 

All of a sudden, she appeared before me, kicking me to the wall before pain struck my cheeks as a punch landed onto me before her angry voice screamed into my ear, “Is this all you will do? Are you that useless, how can you expect yourself to protect the people you love if you are this weak?!”

 

“You don’t deserve the two of them! You truly don’t deserve their love, yet they trust you with their love, what would you do in this situation? In this situation where you can’t defend them, in a situation where you are restrained?” she asked before punching me again on the cheek.

 

After the last punch, she soon closed her eyes before turning around as the surroundings reverted back to the darkness as her voice echoed around, “I am disappointed… I won’t waste this travel of mine, if you will stay this useless forever then don’t expect to leave this darkness… I will take your body away and change the future myself if you don’t reflect…”

 

“What… are… you… saying?” I asked before she turned around with a frown.

 

“I am telling you to get up and prevent the tragedy from happening…” she replied which confused me as she closed her eyes and sighed, “Haa… I feel bad taking out my anger on my past self who doesn’t even know about the future tragedy…”

 

“Say, brat? Do you want that future to happen?” she suddenly asked while looking at me with an exhausted expression.
