"HAHAHAH… the more I hear and look at you, the more I get interested. Then how about I offer you something? Will you accept it, after all, it will affect the trajectory of your life as well as the one you wanted to meet with all your life." Yuki chuckled as she meant every word she said. A person with such resilience, power, determination, and a strong mind to go after her goals without caring if others around her get hurt or worse gets killed is the one she likes the most. They would make a great subordinate as long as she can tie them down and doing it was easy with just a little bit of mind games with her. But before the three of them could respond, Yuki touched her chest and brought something magical out of it before smiling like a devil which made all three of them shiver down to their bone.
"I, Yuki swore to the Gods. While Using the Oath of Annihilation, if Celeste Alisha becomes my subordinate, I shall grant her greatest wish, to meet her daughter…" Yuki said out loud not caring if she practically risked her life as she made an Oath, though the Oath is still not verified since Alisha hasn't accepted it, but once she does, it would take effect quickly.
"WHAT!? Are you fucking insane, why would you use that!? That's already your second time using it, yet you are not even the slightest afraid of it?" Ayame roared as she placed both of her hands on Yuki's shoulder and began to shake her entire body to say that Yuki was expecting to be treated like is out of her comprehension, she didn't even expect her Mother to act like this.
"Stop shaking me and sorry to tell you, but I know that I'm completely sane. Plus, what's the harm of using it, I already used it once and even came out victorious, so who cares?" Yuki couldn't help but frown as she begins to argue with Ayame about such a small matter, well to her at least.
"Why are you acting like this!? Gahhh! I can't really understand you. You're so nonchalant even after using such a Cruel Oath. You're such a stupid idiot!" Ayame harrumphed as she even knocked on Yuki's head out of anger and even though she was clearly angry at her, it didn't seem that way to the two people, it's more appropriate to say that she was just nagging at her for being a child almost. But when Ayame saw the smile hanging on Yuki's face, a vein begins to bulge in her forehead, and before she could truly explode, she heard Yuki's chuckle before hearings words of assurance from her.
"Don't worry too much Mother, my actions seem reckless to you. But I assure you, I'm not going to do this if I'm not confident. I'm not going to die yet, not until I get both of our revenge.." Yuki tried her best to be as gentle as she can and even lowered her tone to not make it seems cold and nonchalant, but her last sentence…. Even no matter how hard she tries, she wouldn't be able to hide the clear and dark murderous intent behind it. Ayame's heart begins to flutter as she felt so happy that she could fly right now, even if Yuki's voice contained a lot of murderous intent behind it, she was happy because she was actually thinking about her. Even going as far as having revenge for their sake.
"So… will you accept my offer with you?" After reassuring her Mother, she asked for her to walk to the side and let her handle all of this which Ayame quickly agreed to and let her daughter do what she do best. Alisha's fate of becoming Yuki's subordinate is already set in stone, though she is curious how can she make the stubborn Alisha submit to her, but she only hopes that Yuki wouldn't use any torture to make her submit because a seed of hatred would surely be planted in her heart.
"Alright, since you're still being so defiant in taking me as your Master you have left with me no choice then but to do this…" Yuki sighed and without any hesitation, she slapped Alisha to wake her up from her senses, it was clear that she was already thinking of ways to leave here, and to wake her from that fantasy, she slapped her. It was as simple as that.
"Heh… you're already thinking of leaving, Alisha? Isn't that too cold of you? I'll only say it once Alisha, so you better listen to it carefully… Don't you think it's time for you to let go? Let yourself be free from all of the grievance that you have in your heart and the only way for that to happen is rest. Just stop whatever you're planning and accept it, accept that Amane would never come back." Yuki said in a serious tone, but Alisha's reaction was all to her expectation which is for her to lash out,
"Let go!? How can I let go!? My daughter died because of my weakness and every day the guilt in my heart only gets stronger and stronger, to the point where I have nightmares every time I try to sleep! I will only rest when I can hold my daughter with my own hands… I will do everything it takes, even if it means killing all of you." Alisha roared in pain and anger as she refused to give up and before she can continue again, she heard Yuki's deep and cold voice.
"How about your Amane's feelings about this, have you ever considered it? Let me tell you this, just because you let go of something, it doesn't mean that you have to forget about it. And… who said that Amane is dead? The person who killed her? That's laughable…" Yuki chuckled and continued.
"No one dies because they died, they only die when they are forgotten. That is why people like Gods can still exist. So, let me ask you this… Did Amane really die, did she die in your heart and mind?" Yuki stopped and sighed before she looks over the beautiful sky, as her snowy white hair danced through the winds, and if anyone were to look at it, they would find this scene to be the most beautiful.
After hearing Yuki's words, Alisha completely stopped in her tracks, she was completely shocked after hearing such words because it was so impactful to her that she even begins to think if what she is doing is correct or not. But it was not just her, even Yuki's two Mother was also shocked as they comprehend her words, but the more they do it, the more they agree to her words.
"Accepting is one of the hardest things to do, I know it because I have my own share of experience. It's hard, but sometimes you just gotta do it. After all, accepting it is actually not that bad, the more you try to deny it the more painful it will only get, I remember, a wise man saying… People are idiots because they cannot simply accept the truth, even if it's the right one. And I completely agree with that, because Humans… No, all living beings only choose to accept what is more appealing to them, which is exactly what you are doing. You only accept the thing that is most appealing to you, which is for you to resurrect Amane even though it's completely wrong." Yuki crouched as she lifted Alisha's head to look straight into her eyes before questioning.
"It's just the truth, but then again, what do you want to choose? The painful truth or the beautiful lie?"
