This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
At first, things were a bit awkward between Viezda, Valenor and Lilinor since they didn’t know each other well, but their passion for the game of chess brought them together and they gradually became closer.
I was enjoy my time, staring up at the bright blue sky and watching my three princesses pick up the chessboard after their match, when suddenly Gaia’s voice appeared from out of nowhere.
“Are you some kind of womanizer Johra? Look at how happy all these women are with you.”
“Stop that, Gaia. What are you here for?”
Although I could already guess the reason she had come, I figured I’d play along a bit.
“Huhu! Do you remember that favor which involved Melpomene?”
“Of course, and since you have control of most of the universes, it won’t be an easy task, right?
“Come on, you can easily deal with this. Also, this doesn’t only concern Melpomene, but all the humans on Earth.”
“What? Earth? Is Metatron somehow involved in all this?”
“It seems Melpomene was born on Earth and in the same time period as your human life there. But, as you well know, Earth is currently under the influence of Metatron.”
“Right.”
“Metatron and I are like the two sides to one coin, we can’t one up each other, not to mention that Earth is like his home ground.”
“So you want me to take care of him?”
“Something like that. I know that you two have some sort of arrangement by which he has to follow the course of history, but you know what terrible future is in store for Earth, so….”
“Will I have any problems with this favor then?”
“You know full well how strong you still are.”
“I see, so what do I need to accomplish by going back over there?”
“Two things actually, the first is to return with Melpomene and the second is to save Gnoss.”
“Gnoss?”
“Yes, Gnoss will actually play a relatively important role since he is destined to stand up to Metatron.”
“Ugh! How annoying.”
“I’ll throw in a bonus, so please do this for me.”
“Fine, then when would this occur?”
“Right now.”
“Hey! No, wait up Gaia! I haven’t finished yet….”
Before I could say anything else, she placed her hand on me forehead and I was whisked back into the past.
“That dam Gaia….”
As I opened my eyes felt myself crumpled down in some smelly area, with light filtering in from above.
“Over here…!”
I shouted, hoping others could hear my voice.
Shortly after I heard a couple voices.
“Hey, are you okay down there?”
“A child has just fallen in there!”
‘Oh, did I just return to the exact moment when I had fallen down the manhole?’
I tried some magic skills but nothing appeared, likewise calling out the status page didn’t work.
“I’m down here! Please get some help!”
I shouted out anxiously and after some time a knotted rope descended which I used to climb out of the manhole.
The next couple of days there was talk of the boy which was miraculously saved despite having fallen in a manhole, but as time passed the incident was quickly forgotten and I had returned to me regular life.
‘My magic skills still aren’t working, could it have all been a dream?’
I began doubting many of my memories.
After having returned to Earth, my relationship with my parents had improved drastically. Due to my many life experiences, I was able to properly express my affection for them. After all, in another universe they had lost their son and grieved heavily as a result of it.
By now two years had passed since the incident with the manhole.
My doubts about these memories of mine were becoming stronger, as I began believing them to be no more than a strange dream.
‘ChiZzzic! Joh…ra!’
It reminded me of Lena’s voice which I had not heard in two years.
“Lena?”
I stood up and shouted loudly in the middle of class. Naturally there as no response and I was sent out to stand in the corridor as punishment for my outbreak.
Across from our school was a special needs school which I would occasionally stare out to. However, this time around I saw a face which I just happened to recognize.
“Don’t tell me… could that me Melpomene?”
There was no plausible explanation for this since here face looked exactly like that of Melpomene’s from my memories.
Whether or not I actually could hear Lena’s voice might have been in question, but for me, this resemblance to Melpomene was more concrete proof that I wasn’t entirely crazy.
Completely ignoring my punishment of waiting out in the corridor, I ran towards the exit, hell bent on reaching the other school. Unfortunately the school monitor had seen me and apprehended me before I could cross the gates.
“Crazy kid! Why did you run to the other school all of a sudden?”
The school monitor proceeded to slap my across the cheek a few times, but I didn’t even feel the sting as my mind was still on Melpomene.
Ever since that day I would wait by that schools gate from early in the morning when classes would start, and then once again the in afternoon when they would end. I would often be caught and brought before that school’s head disciplinary teacher who was angry with my actions. However I would Alway tell him that I was waiting to meet a student who studied here.
They also tried to bring my parents into it, but it seems that they believed that I had simply found my first love and was simply obsessed.
A few months passed in that fashion, but I had yet to see her again. Perhaps a normal person would have given up at this point, but not me. Part of what drove me so much was the desire to prove that my memories were more than mere fantasy.
Rain or shine, I would be by that schools gate to watch the students enter and leave, gaining the nickname of Dandelion for my strange behavior.
Finally, after six months of stalking, I was given permission to enter and look through the classes to find my mystery girl. But, after going classroom by classroom, I had yet to catch sight of Melpomene.
It was to be expected, after all I had been sitting by the gate and watching every student enter and leave for the past six months. It had all been a dead end. I was standing there, by one of the classroom doors, feeling frustrated and defeated. When the adjacent faculty door opened and a young looking female teacher, who looked more like a student came out.
“Oh, you must be that Dandelion, still haven’t found her yet?”
I shook my head.
“Oh, then maybe she just isn’t in school right now.
“I’ve been looking for the past six months.”
“Okay, then let me check the records to see if there was a student which transferred out around that time. Do you have a phone number?”
I returned home after giving her my number. My parents upon seeing how depressed I looked just give me a pat on the back to try to cheer me up.
Returning to my room, I jumped on my bed and stared at the ceiling dejectedly.
“In the end was it all a dream? Lena’s voice, Melpomene’s face?
I punched the wall in anger and tried to fall asleep.
