Chapter 57:
STAR AWESOME
This world is so awesome.
I am not too sure about this
I just love it here.
Maybe I hate it here
This world has magic.
But many bad pee-o-pal
Friends
Traitors
Tons of food
No basements
No punching uncles
But there are other things to take those spots
To this day, Amanda refers to the sorceress as a traitor who lives in dark forces
I hate sorceresses. Amanda did the right thing
The sorceress made me a hero
A power taker who is the most hated creature of this world
She gave me the power to save them
She gave me the power to drain not only manoid but life force itself, leaving other nothing
Toby touched his own eyes, a weak smile on his lips. “D-dac.”
Dacoria shouted, not focusing on the situation at hand. “Why did you kill yourself? Were you sad? Toby, why!?”
Sen shouted. “Brat, can’t you see? He killed everyone. Stop with the past. Finish this.”
Dacoria ignored him. His eyes fixed on Toby. “Did I make you sad? Why did you die?”
Toby stepped closer. The crystal in his necklace shattered into dust, drifting towards Dacoria. “Dac… I didn’t commit suicide. I was killed—”
Sen bluntly spoke, his voice louder than usual. "Mr Hero, aren't you going to save the day?"
Dacoria’s eyes widened, ignoring Sen. “K-killed? But… there was no tournament, no war… You died overnight…”
“Sen killed me.”
The words cracked through the storm like thunder. Dacoria tilted his head, glaring at Sen. “HOW DARE YOU, SEN!” Dacoria’s tentacles popped out, lashing forward in rage.
Sen’s scythe sliced through one, spraying black fluid across the ground, grinning widely. “Did it hurt?”
Dacoria flinched, more tentacles swaying towards Sen. "I WILL KILL YOU!"
Sen lowered his scythe and stood still, smirking. “Go on. Kill me. Then you’ll be just like me.” He stepped closer, almost whispering. “You’ll be the same pathetic fool who kills his own.”
Dacoria bit his lip, frozen. His eyes darted around trying to understand the situation.
He grabbed Dacoria’s cheeks. “And I even had this scythe made for you.”
“Why?” Dacoria’s voice broke.
Sen sighed, almost bored. “Because we all hate you. You are narcissistic, rude, and annoying. Even TOBY HATED YOU.”
Dacoria's tentacles collapsed on the floor; he lowered his gaze.
“Easy." Sen turned, smirking as he mumbled. "Sorry, Dac, but I need to put an end to this Toby."
Star awesome members grew in number,
A lot of people came.
I like them all
Maybe I like them all?
But they all don’t really like me….
They think I am annoying
But I am stronger than them
They should like me
I bring them back to life
They should love me
But they all scowl
Telling me to grow up
They say I am weird
But they all are weird
“Toby, you dumb…” Dacoria sat next to Toby and swung his legs.
Toby looked at him, blinking in confusion. Philomena patted his shoulder gently. “Sorry. He can be a little rude.”
“Rude?” Toby giggled. “No, I thought that was adorable…”
Nive walked by. “He isn’t actually as young as he looks.”
Dacoria stood, and his body shifted, older, taller. “So?”
Toby beamed as he clapped his hands. “Awwww, you’re so cute.”
“C-cute?” he stuttered.
He thought I, the creepy power taker, was cute.
Rain poured down, streaking the glass of the lounge windows. Thunder groaned across the night sky. Dacoria stared out at the clouds, lost in thought.
“Is everything okay?” Toby called out.
He jerked. “N-nothing.”
Toby tilted his head, narrowing his eyes at him. “A-are you… maybe afraid of the rain?”
“NO!” Dacoria’s cheeks flushed. He stormed past Toby. “I think you are…”
Toby laughed and grabbed his arm. “I’m scared… Will you stay with me until I fall asleep?”
His pout melted into a smile. “Okay, dummy!”
He stayed with me, the whole night
He treated me the way I wanted
But I...I played that stupid game
and everyone started hating Toby...he was lonely...and I wasn't always there...he was sad...
Dacoria walked into the lounge; he saw Toby curled up in a corner. "Toby?"
Toby looked at him and slid his face lower. "Mhmm...?"
Dacoria swallowed. "U-um...why are you sleeping here?"
Toby stood up, walking past him. "I will sleep in my room from now on.... It's better this way."
With a loud thud, Dacoria swung the door open and marched into the boy's combination room. He yelled. "Why are you pee-o-pal not talking to Toby?"
"Because we don't like him..." Yuzuru glanced at Dacoria. "And before you say anything – we hate him because he confessed to Nami."
"But?" he whined.
"And you know what? It's your fault. We all found out, so it's your fault that we hate him...so there!" Yuzuru's finger twitched as Dacoria's eyes dulled and he walked out. Yuzuru looked around. "Was I too rude?"
"Nope." Sen smiled.
It's all my fault... They hated him sooo much that Sen killed him...
Honestly, I had no clue Sen killed him... I thought it was a suicide
I thought they all ignored him...so he killed himself
Now I know it was Sen...
I wasnt planning on revealing how the curse would lift
Now, I definitely won't tell.
Toby hates me...he can...but please no....
Tears poured down Dacoria’s cheeks like the storm outside. His tentacles collapsed, limp against the floor. Sen turned his back, walking towards Toby.
“I DON’T HATE HIM!” Toby screamed. “Quit being such a manipulative liar, Sen!”
Dacoria's eyes glistened, and he gave Toby a faint smile.
“U-um…” a small voice broke the tension. Everyone turned.
Ren stood there, clutching a bottle filled with black liquid. “S-Sen… you wanted this…”
Sen narrowed his eyes. “You went to my room?”
“Y-yes…”
“Why the hell did you go there!?” Sen roared.
“Because you said so… Yao told me you told him—”
“Yao?” Sen turned, remembering he forgot about Yao.
But before he could move, Yao stepped out of the kitchen, blood dripping from his clothes. His hands trembled. “I killed Nami.”
