However, the mist could not penetrate Tsuraguki's body no matter how hard it tried. In contrast, Tsuraguki discovered the fog was trying to penetrate her body.
She angrily placed the Misty Lamp around her and the fog was immediately repelled. But when the fog was repelled by the light of the Misty Lamp, she could still hear an angry scream.
However, that scream was not clear, as if it was coming from afar, making Tsuraguki feel extremely confused.
"What the hell is going on?" Tsuraguki frowned as she looked towards the fog, she felt as if something was wrong.
"I'll be back..." The voice echoed in Tsuraguki's head again but then disappeared.
But Tsuraguki did not dare to look down on the voice because she felt a little pressure from that voice, and it made her feel extremely scared.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder causing her to jump back, and swing her fist with all her might.
"Tsuragaki!"
The fist that was only about 5 cm away from the face of the person behind stopped.
That's right, it was Hikaru. He didn't think that Tsuraguki had any intention of attacking him, but seeing her shocked and scared face, Hikaru didn't feel angry either.
He thought that maybe Tsuraguki was angry and wanted to scare him a little.
Hikaru raised his hand to her fist and lowered it: "Don't worry..."
"Master…" Tsuraguki was surprised, she didn't think Hikaru would follow her. But this also embarrassed her.
Yes, she just showed a bad attitude, but she didn't know how to explain it.
In short, Tsuraguki felt that she was not wrong, so she felt that she was not at fault.
Tsuraguki turned her head, then plopped down on the ground, and resumed sitting the way she was previously. Hikaru saw her sitting silently on the ground and he could only sigh.
He felt like his head was going to explode. Less than 30 minutes ago he had to face Vuni's problem, now he has to face Tsuraguki's problem.
Hikaru was a little tired. Currently, his number of women was not much, but it was already causing him a headache, so if the number increased, he would go crazy.
"Tsuraguki… you can talk to me."
Tsuraguki remained silent.
Hikaru sighed, in fact he had no experience in handling situations like this. Besides, when he was on earth, he only had one girlfriend, Naomi.
But back then he was just a stupid simp, and he just fawned over Naomi.
Now it was different, he was not like the past. Perhaps he could ask for Rika's help, however, he didn't want Rika to guide him.
He wanted to use his true feelings to solve this.
"Master… you like Selvih, right?"
Suddenly Tsuraguki spoke. When Hikaru heard that, he replied, "That's right."
Although Tsuraguki already knew the answer, when she heard Hikaru say it, she felt like her heart was stabbed by a knife.
Although she had also said before that she didn't care how many women Hikaru had, but now, seeing so many women surrounding him, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
In particular, he spent less and less time with her, to the point where Tsuraguki felt that Hikaru no longer liked her.
"Not only Selvih, I also like Saraya, Vuni, Anno and you."
Hikaru came to her side and sat down: "You might think I'm greedy but I don't want to abandon any of you."
"I don't know what you guys are thinking, that's why… Tsuraguki, could you give me a chance to get to know you better?"
When Tsuraguki heard that, her eyes were wet, and her tears flowed like two transparent streams.
"Sorry… I was selfish."
"No…" Hikaru shook his head: "The selfish one is me, the greedy one is me, the indifferent one is me. Sorry, Tsuraguki, sorry for not paying attention to your feelings."
"No! Master, I have a feeling that I want to keep you by my side forever, I don't want to share you with others because I'm afraid… I'm afraid you won't notice me like my father and mother."
When Tsuraguki said this, she immediately remembered the bad memories. When she was young, because she was a girl, her father and mother did not take her seriously.
They even considered Tsuraguki as a tool to strengthen their throne. The person Tsuraguki's parents cared about was her brother.
That's right, for them, it was the son who could afford to hold their throne, and Tsuraguki was just a commodity that would bring them even more profit.
Of course since Tsuraguki didn't receive love from her parents, she didn't hesitate when she… killed them.
Royalty was like that.
It wouldn't be wrong to say that Tsuraguki and Selvih were the same. It was just that their personalities were completely different.
When Hikaru heard that, he knew what Tsuraguki was talking about, he affirmed: "Don't worry, I will never leave you. For me, you are also a very important piece. Elkia will forever be your home, and I will also wait for you forever."
"But… I'm not sure if I can change my personality." Tsuraguki lowered her head, as if she wanted to bury her head between her two giant mountains.
Hikaru shook his head: "Why change?"
"But… I'm giving you trouble, no one needs a troublemaker." The more Tsuraguki spoke, the quieter her voice became, even near the end of the sentence her voice was as small as the sound a mosquito makes.
Hikaru of course heard Tsuraguki's words clearly, so he knew how she was feeling.
When he was on Earth, he used to have the same feelings as her. When he was a child living in an orphanage, he knew that adults didn't like children who caused a lot of trouble.
And he knew that adults only wanted to hear what they liked. If he said things that were beyond their expectations, they wouldn't like him.
Therefore, he accidentally became a person who lived for other people, and tried to please others by turning into a normal version like other children.
"Tsuraguki… don't lose yourself. We always try to be the most normal version in the eyes of others, but because of that, we lose ourselves."
"Perhaps… our personalities are a bit bad, but no one is perfect, not even God."
"Our personalities make us special. Don't become an ordinary flower in a forest of flowers, but be a beautiful flower in your own way."
"Tsuraguki, your personality isn't bad, it's just that you haven't found the right person to spoil you."
"Though I don't know what to do to make you believe me. I don't know how to help you either, but I promise I will love you and love your personality."
"Tsuraguki, I love you."
Tsuraguki was startled to hear that, but then, her defenses were completely shattered to pieces. At this point, when facing Hikaru, she had completely taken down her shield.
Her tears right now were tears of happiness, not tears of anxiety and loneliness.
Tsuraguki rested her head on his shoulder, and softly said, "I love you too, master. Thank you for giving me a home to return to."
"No need to thank me. I have to thank you, you have helped me a lot."
Hikaru smiled and said, "Selvih's personality is also a bit weird. Although she is always following me, she is willing to share me with other girls and does not want to possess me."
"Don't worry about those things. I may sound like a jerk, but I'll make enough time for everyone."
"That's why… you don't need to change anything. I am also a selfish person, although I have many women, I do not want to share you with anyone."
"You can only be mine."
Tsuraguki smiled, a smile filled with happiness: "Master, you are so greedy."
"Hahahaha… yes, I am a greedy person." Hikaru laughed.
"Master, thank you for giving me a place to return to." Tsuraguki spoke from the bottom of her heart, which was filled with sincerity and happiness.
"Finally… after so many years of wandering in space, 200,000 years of captivity, at last… I have a place to return to and someone who loves me, and is waiting for me to return."
"Um..." Hikaru didn't know what words to say, but he thought maybe he didn't need to. At this moment, just the two of them sitting quietly leaning against each other, was enough.
Sometimes, even words were not enough to express their feelings and thoughts. But silence was better than words, as silence would allow their minds to understand each other better.
Even though there was thick fog in front of them, and they were unable to see what was in the distance, they were still staring at each other.
They were not looking at the mist, what they were looking at was their future. Tsuraguki was seeing a happy time ahead of her, especially since she was no longer alone.
…
Moments later, Hikaru brought Tsuraguki back to Elkia, to the main dining room.
Selvih and Anno were now sitting at the dining table, looking towards Tsuraguki.
Tsuraguki saw Selvih, and she felt a bit embarrassed. Earlier, Hikaru had also told her that it was Selvih who urged him to find her.
Tsuraguki didn't think Selvih would do such a thing. It turned out that the selfish person who wanted to take over the master was her, not Selvih.
Suddenly, Hikaru patted Tsuraguki on the back startling her, he whispered in her ear: "Remember what I said, be yourself, don't change."
When Tsuraguki heard that, she smiled happily, and nodded: "Um, I understand."
Selvih saw that Tsuraguki seemed to have calmed down and smiled too, she said to Anno: "Did you know that when you love the right person, you can be a princess or a child, or whatever you want to be and the person would still treat you well."
Anno frowned: "Why? Wouldn't that cause a lot of trouble for Kiki?"
Selvih smiled and patted Anno's head: "No. On the contrary, it is precisely because you are comfortable with Kiki that you can be yourself, without having to put on any other mask."
