Chapter 9. The scary Halloween night
"Feel cold. There's no sign of leaves on trees. What was it like at the beginning? When I fell out of the threshold space... Even though the sky is dull, the only thing that pleases the eye are the daisies around me. The soulless, eerie trees and the fence that blocks the already dry branches of the bushes only bring sadness. I remember it well, the gray trees, the abundance of daisies, and the vast pink sky... The world seemed endless and pink. And then... There was a lot of electronics. But the electronics in my Arcades threshold world..are not okay. The last cassettes I had... That's right! The album by my favorite singer! I scoured every building to collect the entire album! And I succeeded... And I still remember what this cute guy looks like. He wears a plaid shirt or a jumpsuit, and his hair are so fluffy and soft! He has freckles and golden brown eyes. According to my research, this guy was in the Arcades before me...and all the records he sang into seem to be his diary of experiences. All the recordings are mixed up and it's impossible to match this story. I remember finding a poster for a girl who was being treated for insomnia. Her eyes were always open, and time was passing by. Time... the ticking clock... Can I describe what time is now? It seems that my life is indeed, limited. But...what happened next? My head was hurting a lot these time, but what scared me the most was that this redhead boy had left Arcades. The records are old, and his voice sounds quite young, and all the information about him is outdated! He even cried for help in one, even many recordings! Feel creepy..One day, I kind of went to look for more information about him, because I wasn't stopped by the number of songs I found.. I went to look for video cassettes. Oh, it was evening..and it started raining. I got chocolate, and there were white flowers all around! It seems like I ran to one of the buildings to get out of the rain, eating chocolate in front of a gramophone and falling asleep to the sound of thunder. What song was playing? Did I fall asleep at that moment, or am I still asleep? I remember how got into a room with many wires..and then my brain..is just completely shut down? I remember buzzing and an endless number of colored dots. Society...Me..I'm being overwhelmed by false memories, my derealization!! I'm going to pull out all my hair! My body is so sore.."My body woke up on a rather hard surface and immediately fell off! The room was small and dark. A certain voice was trying to tell me something..maybe even help..Kj-did you get enough sleep? Finally! Are you okay? Only the last question was heard by the girl. Ks-waāterKasye spoke in syllables, sounding quite exhausted. Despite drinking quite a lot, her head still ached. It turned out that she had woken up in the middle of the night, and even in his office! Kenji approached her and began to put handcuffs on her hands, but unfortunately, the girl was still very hungry and tired, and her entire body was in pain, so she didn't care what he was putting on her. They stood up and left the room, walking through the eerie black hallway together. It was scary to walk a little further away from the person leading her, so she tried to stay close to the person she wanted to call Coriander after everything that had happened! One day, Leafy Citrusses brought to an elf girl a disgusting like ramen noodles with cilantro, so terrible that the girl's stomach was sick for three days. The name of the person who had been bullying her all this time was so similar to the name of this disgusting herb... Kj-Are you afraid of the dark? The redhead decided to speak out. Kasye was sickened by this. The couple suddenly entered one of the rooms, an old broken bed in the corner, fragile floors, a broken brown wardrobe resembling a coffin, pipes protruding from the ceiling, with only the frozen bile from the cold and...all of this like enemies..Ks-..crawling like centipedes...Panic began to rise, for Kasye Peach remembers what happened before the wedding dress with the centipedes. The room hasn't changed, it's just gotten darker and colder. Ks-why...why am I still here? What happened to the dress, Kenji!?Worried, she began to ask a large number of questions. Kj-I burned it. Exhaling, the one who was always rude to her, replied. Ks-it cannot be, it's still in my possession!Kj-don't be ridiculous! Interrupting, the guy continued to search for something in the drawer, so the fear grew stronger, always when he was looking for something, later terrible things happened... So that this fool would not run away from him, he put one part of the handcuffs on her hand and the other part on his, so girl was always close! Due to the inconvenience of searching for a certain item in the old drawers, Kenji unclipped his hand from the handcuffs. Once free, the girl did not immediately decide to run away, but instead looked in different directions and quietly took steps back away from him. Kenji Crassus pretended not to notice this at all, and she quickly ran to the door. The door was locked, and her hopes were dashed. Kj-Kasye, what about the dress?He asked from the other side of the room, and the girl stood up, walked around, and suddenly she was wearing a wedding dress, but this time without the centipedes. :) She looked at his face, and this time he was looking at her differently. She had never seen such a reaction before. Ks-well..I just like this dress, that's why I kept it. It's just a figment of my imagination, it's not a real ability. Kenji stood there like an asshole, completely shocked by the fact that he clearly remembered burning it, but at the same time, he was thinking about how she wasn't wearing the dress in the hospital, but no one had changed her clothes...Kj-I-I burned it. I clearly remember burning it.He felt uneasy...it's a strange feeling, like in a dream, it shouldn't be like this, it doesn't exist, but you see it right in front of you. Something is wrong here. This feeling, and in general, any feelings he hasn't felt in less than a hundred years, seems anxious and something nightmarish.. Although he hasn't had dreams for a long time, but with the appearance of this fool in his life...Ks-Kenji.When he heard his name being said in a cute voice, his thoughts became confused. Looking at her, Kasye was sitting next to him, wearing the same pink dress that was too small for her, which he had bought almost for free.Kj-my head hurts. He said this and grabbed his hair. The girl was curious about why he was touching his hair, so she squatted down and started stroking his head with her hand. Kenji looked into her eyes, got a little lost in thought, and let his gaze travel down her body, stopping at her white panties, which were visible in this position due to her short dress, which was not suitable for her figure. "She's gained weight" ā he thought, and then received a punch to the head. Kasye punched him, but didn't know how to use her hands properly, so it came out rather awkward. Kenji thought for a moment, then abruptly picked her up and carried her out of the hospital. They climbed out of the fire exit and, thanks to his temporary disappearance ability, made their way home undetected. They managed to eat a little together, and by the end of the day, they were lying on the bed, satisfied, until Kenji started to go crazy. Kj-want to ask you a question, how old are you? Ks-I-I don't know...I'm a threshold. I don't have a time frame in my world, the compass explodes, and the clock hand spins around...or vice versaāWhen she didn't gave him an answer, he started asking her questions.Kj-When was the Colosseum built? Ks-ah, 72AD..Kj-632 minus 336?Ks-aam..two hundred..296.Kj-how old are you? Ks-one hundred..one hundred and forty..Kj-one hundred...He continued in surprise..how young she was. Kasye put her thumb in her mouth, because she was very sleepy, and leaned on his arm. Ks-172..and if you calculate it like this, then 183 turns out...Kenji looked at one place with a stone like face and could only say:Kj-and then, how much am I..Ks-three hundred..thirty? Looking at him and so that the silence would not longer for a long time, she continued:Ks-it turns out that our age difference with you is only 147 years!Smiling, she looked at him, while he was covering his face with his hand, realizing how far he had gone..Ks-so you've been living for a long time, haven't you?Kj-yes.Ks-tell me, what did you do as a child, and what did the world look like so long ago?Kj-I don't remember.Ks-that's impossible! Exclaimed Kasye. Because he was still "rotten," the girl decided to annoy him by trying to take his glasses off!Ks-give it, give it to me!! You don't need glasses right now, you're sitting there with a sour, stone-like, displeased face and not doing anything! After these quick words, it became abruptly quiet. This made him angry, and with a more angry expression, he looked at her to let Kasye know that he didn't want to joke around right now. But this stupid girl didn't understand, so she abruptly took his glasses. Ks-I'm as smart as you now, right? Kj-annoying! Give it back! Well done, here's a star for your hard work. Ks-no I won't! Stop being rude to me! Kj-no, I won't.Ks-no, I won't.The girl started taking steps back, causing her to stumble a bit. It was quite amusing, but Kenji was laughing at her at the time. This made Kasye angry, and she started a fight. The guy blocked her hand movements because he knew she was much weaker than him. The shouting stopped when Kenji's father told them to be quiet in a harsh tone.Kj-Now I've been scolded!Ks-But you were the one who was shouting!Kj-No, I wasn't.After that, the couple tried to fall asleep, but they couldn't. It was deep night, and the two idiots were lying in the same bed, sharing a single blanket, as father had refused to give them a second one! To muffle their voices, they decided to venture out in the middle of the night. Comically, they opened the door of an ancient wooden wardrobe, which always creaked loudly to avoid waking their father. From within, they retrieved a large, old coat, which they draped over the girl's shoulders. From the bottom shelf, which he couldn't open quietly, Kenji took out a pair of oversized boots for her and put on a strange fur coat, and they set off. The atmosphere was eerie, and the night was cold and dark. There was frost on the pavement and rotting grass, and it was getting colder. The flowers had already decayed on the frozen ground. As they walked along the long path, their conversation became more intimate.Kj-..your threshold world is limited. I hope you grow up to be a complete person. Absolutely everyone needs social support..blah blah blah, besides, your threshold world is limited and you're alone in it, and in generalāKs-who are you to measure my threshold world with your physical tape measure?The girl argued, but she still continued to listen to his position. Kj-material happiness will bring you more pleasure than imagination! Ks-I can be happy on my own! Still, I've been living like that all my life!Kz-This is not normal. Why is everyoneāKs-I am not everyone! And no one will agree with me. I'll be alone. Everybody around is destroying me and my world. I don't want to interact with anyone.Kj-But not everyone is as evil. There's no point in holding grudges. Ks-I continue to sacrifice my life by being with you! My dreams are just a defense against your violence! I will never tolerate this again! And they continued to walk, breaking dry branches under their boots. Kj-Kasye, what do you think will be left after you?Ks-ruins. The endless jungle and abandoned memorials will remain untouched. Kj-What are you living for? Ks-The meaning is not always on the surface. The suffering and pain you experience are part of the journey that leads to yourself. Keep moving forward without stopping for a second. To continue to love yourself and to learn something new every day, kissing every step on the hard road. Even a swan with damaged wings will try to fly.After a long journey, they finally reached a cemetery, which was abandoned, with rotten soil and frost-covered gravestones. However, someone had recently planted a red rose next to one of the old graves.Kj-We are in the cemetery of suicides. Their funerals usually do not take place in ordinary cemeteries and burial sites, where a church. This is due to the fact that it is forbidden to bury sinners on the illuminated earth. Refusing to live a life given by God does not give a suicidal the right to be considered a human being. In the past, their graves were always located outside the cemetery, and one of these places was...Suddenly, after a long declaration, Kasye Peach suddenly disappeared. The guy was overcome by a rather strange and eerie feeling. Maybe like she never existed..the whole story from the child photo, the basement, the centipedes, the pink dress, and the cemetery..maybe she never existed....Kj-delirium.His reasoning led to the fact that it was morning, and he was going crazy because he hadn't had his morning coffee. The girl was known by others he had interacted with, and it had all happened for real, so he continued to look around. Kasye Peach was slightly behind him at the moment, not only in terms of development, but also because she was staring at one of the gravestones, which had a deep-scratched inscription: "Jessica Tommie Ren Bennet Ninn Isaiah." Whatever it meant, she didn't have time to think about it, because someone suddenly grabbed her hand. She was startled and turned around, find a young man sitting on his heels in front of her. His dark green hair covered his eyes, and he looked quite tired. Ks-I'm glad to meet you! How did you get here? The young man didn't even look at her, but instead pointed at her boots with his index finger. He seemed to find them warm, tall, and laced. He spoke in a closed voice:Nm-I don't have any shoes at all.. Look at my feet, I'm walking barefoot trying to find an artifact to turn back. Ks-I'd be happy to give them to you! My ability is flight, and I also think that whoever brought me here can carry me in his arms.The Nameless guy didn't expect the girl to be so kind. In the Arcades, Kasye walks a lot, causing deep blisters on her feet. For her, her feet are the most valuable and strong part of her body, so she didn't feel bad about giving away shoes, which didn't even belong to her, to this guy who told her about how he walked barefoot digging graves, climbed trees and fell off them often, and how his feet got cold in the first snowfall! The shoes were very comfortable for him. After a quick break, the main character walked a short distance and encountered her man standing in thought. In front of him, she decided to look weak, as if someone had grabbed her and she was scared and he didn't save her, so she lost her shoes! The acting was beautiful, she tried to show how she was falling to her feet from fear and cold, how he didn't save her, but she was only falling lower in his eyes! Still, he had to carry her in his arms, muttering that she might catch a cold. On the way back, both of them were lost in their thoughts. Of course, this was not how he imagined a date at a cemetery to be...When they returned to the same house, neither of them managed to sleep, as the paperwork was indeed challenging. And because they hadn't slept all night, they decided to take a nap in the evening, which almost caused them to miss the Halloween festival. Before falling asleep, the girl helped him make his bed, and Kenji was in a depressed state. They managed to lie down on top of each other, with the adult lying on top of the silly girl, as he was truly exhausted and had not rested during the weekend he had taken off from work. At that moment, the only light in his room was a dim, yellowish bulb. Kasye stroked his head as he lay on her chest..heavy, but so fragile. Quite by accident, the girl noticed scars on his arms from heavy cuts. The most cute and at the same time frightening thing was that among the usual thin cuts there were new deeper ones, and some resembled the shape of a heart. He was clearly doing this for a very long time and it could have been stopped once. The wounds were getting deeper with each time. Some of them were still red.Ks-tell me please..Why do you keep cutting yourself? Kj-because..It hurts. Ks-but you can get support in other ways..He didn't say anything in response. To break the silence, Kasye Peach began to sing in a melodious and calm voice. It was so soothing, and Kenji didn't remember his mother, but he did remember her lullabies. It brought him peace, and in his mind, he realized how long ago he had died and how tired he was. They fell asleep together.The sweet couple was in a pleasant hustle and bustle, as they were planning to attend a festival!! Millis and Linn were enjoying their youthful lovely moments together. After passing the document check, they were successfully allowed into the Arena. The Arena is a location, almost an island, where all abilities and magic do not work at all. Because of this, it has become a place for safe celebrations. The entire island remains in the style of the Middle Ages, as it has a rich history. Walking around, there is a huge circus tent in one part! It is usually filled with vendors selling snacks and various entertainment options. On the other side of the Arena, there is a vast and dense forest, with a medieval castle nestled within it. In fact, it's quite historical, as it's related to wars and the magical wand, which at that time could be obtained by anyone, regardless of their ability to use it. As a result, magic is now viewed with skepticism in the world. The Middle Ages may be unfamiliar to many, but the Arena is highly regarded. In the evening, Leafy Citrusses, as an independent girl~~, arrived at the festival and immediately went to the mountains to look at breathtaking view. It was already dark, and the stars were visible, making it easier to breathe from above. Additionally, the mountains are located near a dark forest.My elves were a little late, and they didn't come in the most legal way... That bastard put the handcuffs back on her arm, and he attached the other handcuff to his arm. Because of the girl, they almost overslept! To get their minds back on track, the guy bought himself a small but still alcohol drink. He only had a sip, as he doesn't drink, and Kasye annoys him by constantly asking to try it! She drank half of his paycheck haha. Introverts don't like crowded places, so it's time to embrace the spooky! Kenji had prepared well for this festival, exploring all the underground passages to sneak into the castle. The couple discussed Halloween like an older brother trying to scare his younger sister! They reached a place where no one went. The girl didn't want to go down the ditch, as it was dirty and creepy! And in general, going down with someone who bullies you was terrible! But she had no choice, she felt constrained and fear. It may cost her life to obey. Going a little further along the unknown underground ditch, they managed to open an old wooden door and going up the stairs they got into the room of old gray bricks. From the grates from above, the moonlight penetrated into the room. Time was approaching midnight and it turned out that they were in the castle. It was fenced and guarded from the outside, so the couple tried to be quiet. There was a lot of junk inside, construction debris was lying in the corners, it was very dusty, obviously it had not been visited from the inside for a very long time. Kasye stood in the middle of the moonlight and looked at the room around, Kenji at that moment glanced at her and said in a whisper: Kj-can you be my corpse bride..The moonlight shone so brightly on her thinness that he wanted to look at her forever, but he had to answer the question:Ks-Are we in the castle?Kj-sheesh, be quiet!!She tried to continue in a whisper:Ks-But we can't go in here! They became curious and ventured deeper into the castle. When they entered another room, they found a loaded crossbow on the floor. The guy didn't pay attention and tried to move on, but he heard someone pick up the weapon, and when he turned around, he saw his partner pointing a loaded crossbow at him. Raising his arms, he whispered harshly: Kj-what are you doing, put it down, I said!!She couldn't shoot it, probably because it was broken. So she carefully placed it on the floor, and Kenji approached her. The girl, sitting on the floor, covered her head with her hands in fear, feeling that she might be hit. Kj-let's go.He said it louder than a whisper.After walking a little further, they came across a door with a large lock. It felt like it was hanging there just for show. Kasye tried to crack it, at the behest of an adult, with a pin. Nevertheless, she succeeded and opened the door, Kenji looked inside and his face distorted into a huge smile. Turning to her, he abruptly blindfolded her and, putting his hand over her mouth, carried her into this creepy room. Kasye tried to resist, but he turned out to be much stronger than her. After removing the bandage from her head, her arms were spread out and her legs, with her knees touching, were also bound. She was now crucified on a wooden cross. In front of her stood Kenji with a sly smile, twirling and flipping a knife in his hand. Ks-n-no...AAAABefore she could say anything, the guy threw the knife in her direction, and it embedded itself into the nearby tree, causing Kasye to scream. Kj-have you heard about torture in the Middle Ages?Throwing another knife, it flew past. Kj-have you heard about the wheel of fortune? Throwing a third knife, it bounced off her body because was made of plastic. And Kenji continued his speech.Kj-see, you're out of luck. And before that, all the knives were real.Ks-stop it...Kasye Peach mumbled through her tears of fear. It was an injustice, a heavy pain, and a hatred that someone would treat her life so cruelly! There was a loud laugh, and her thoughts were interrupted when the antagonist approached her and put a knife to her throat. Tears streamed down her face, and she couldn't understand why she was suffering for no reason.Kj-deeper. He threatened her and thrust the knife into her throat, forcing her to swallow deeper. The knife touched the wall of her throat, so he pulled it out. Kasye was completely pale, and she couldn't have done more. Kenji felt her cheeks, as she had fainted after a good tongue job. She was cold and numb with fear, very beautiful. After removing her body from the shackles, she was so limp that he had to carry Kasye Peach again.Kasye Peach came to her senses leaning on Kenji while sitting on a bench, it was quite cozy under the light of a yellow lantern and a dark sky. Kenji bought her cute fish-shaped buns with pumpkin filling. She was eating when woke up almost immediately, but her arms and legs still hurt from being tied up. The fireworks started, the guy leaned back on the bench with his head tilted back and almost fell asleep like a ghoul. The girl was watching the fireworks while eating a bun, even though they were almost invisible.At the same time, Leafy Citrusses was sitting alone on a rock, because none of her friends had agreed to go with her to meet Halloween there. Of course, she was bored, she always in a group of friends, but now alone. Even the fireworks didn't bring her joy, and she longed to fill the emptiness within herself with parties, alcohol, and meaningless conversations.A cute couple was walking together. After admiring the fireworks, they stopped near the tents.Kasye and Kenji were walking calmly, but when the girl looked up, she noticed Linn!! They decided to approach them, and the adult guy rolled his eyes. There was silence, confusion, and awkwardness. They just looked at each other with great awkwardness. Kasye Peach bowed to the boy in appreciation and greeting, and Linn nodded her head in response. Leafy appeared out of nowhere, almost running. Lf-Lincoln, can I get an autograph? An autograph!! Ln-I don't give out autographs...Lf-Kasye, you're here too!While the bunny was jumping around everyone, Kenji was looking at his phone, and Kasye Peach was looking at Linn with his girlfriend and the bunny jumping in front of him with a sad look of injustice. "Do I deserve this violence...why am I enduring all this, while he is doing well? Lincoln may not have changed the situation, but he has left a good impression. He already has a girlfriend, and he will save and help her in any situation, while I will die alone and in pain."Kj-and the crows will peck out your organs in the dark forest, and the foxes will steal your flesh..Ks-what!?She must have been saying these words to herself again in mind, or he decided to focus on her thoughts. Either he figured out what she was thinking, or they were already reading each other's minds. Millis noticed that the girl was in handcuffs, and something was amiss. However, the boy decided to engage in conversation by asking a question:Kj-Did you find a girlfriend? Ln-Um, yes...and whatāKj-Did she fall face-first into the powder?At the moment of their conversation, Millis approached Peach and gave her her hairpin, for she loved to wear a huge number of them on hair. While everyone was arguing, the girl managed to open the handcuffs and rush away. She seems to run well, but every time she tried to fly, she failed. Lincoln started to worry again, because it all happened in front of him, and he might get his ass kicked again. But Kenji was used to her running away, so he just said, pointing his index finger at the cute boy with the pink hair.Kj-You're going to get into huge trouble.And he left. Leafy Citrusses disappeared as quickly as she appeared.***As the sweet couple walked back, they had a conversation: Ml-What kind of girl is this? I feel so sorry for her, and why is she walking with an adult man she clearly doesn't like, and she's handcuffed! I feel so sorry for her, she looks lost and scared..Ln-Kasye Peach. This situation has been going on for over a year.. As I can see, nothing has changed since it started. So it's better for us mere mortals not to interfere, because there's nothing we can do about it...Ml-It's so sad.. By the way, she bowed to you. She must think you're a good person!Ln-Well, Although I treated her like a child, I was a little rough to prevent her from getting used to me.. And she still continues to thank me!Ml-I've heard that the forest elves sincerely thank anyone who has been kind to them. I just read about their religion, it's twigs, leaves, and trees.With such a simple conversation, they reached the portals and parted ways...

The girl was curious about why he was touching his hair, so she squatted down and started stroking his head with her hand. Kenji looked into her eyes, got a little lost in thought, and let his gaze travel down her body, stopping at her white panties, which were visible in this position due to her short dress, which was not suitable for her figure. "She's gained weight" ā he thought, and then received a punch to the head. Kasye punched him, but didn't know how to use her hands properly, so it came out rather awkward. Kenji thought for a moment, then abruptly picked her up and carried her out of the hospital. They climbed out of the fire exit and, thanks to his temporary disappearance ability, made their way home undetected. They managed to eat a little together, and by the end of the day, they were lying on the bed, satisfied, until Kenji started to go crazy. Kj-want to ask you a question, how old are you? Ks-I-I don't know...I'm a threshold. I don't have a time frame in my world, the compass explodes, and the clock hand spins around...or vice versaāWhen she didn't gave him an answer, he started asking her questions.Kj-When was the Colosseum built? Ks-ah, 72AD..Kj-632 minus 336?Ks-aam..two hundred..296.Kj-how old are you? Ks-one hundred..one hundred and forty..Kj-one hundred...He continued in surprise..how young she was. Kasye put her thumb in her mouth, because she was very sleepy, and leaned on his arm. Ks-172..and if you calculate it like this, then 183 turns out...Kenji looked at one place with a stone like face and could only say:Kj-and then, how much am I..Ks-three hundred..thirty? Looking at him and so that the silence would not longer for a long time, she continued:Ks-it turns out that our age difference with you is only 147 years!Smiling, she looked at him, while he was covering his face with his hand, realizing how far he had gone..Ks-so you've been living for a long time, haven't you?Kj-yes.Ks-tell me, what did you do as a child, and what did the world look like so long ago?Kj-I don't remember.Ks-that's impossible! Exclaimed Kasye. Because he was still "rotten," the girl decided to annoy him by trying to take his glasses off!Ks-give it, give it to me!! You don't need glasses right now, you're sitting there with a sour, stone-like, displeased face and not doing anything! After these quick words, it became abruptly quiet. This made him angry, and with a more angry expression, he looked at her to let Kasye know that he didn't want to joke around right now. But this stupid girl didn't understand, so she abruptly took his glasses. Ks-I'm as smart as you now, right? Kj-annoying! Give it back! Well done, here's a star for your hard work. Ks-no I won't! Stop being rude to me! Kj-no, I won't.Ks-no, I won't.The girl started taking steps back, causing her to stumble a bit. It was quite amusing, but Kenji was laughing at her at the time. This made Kasye angry, and she started a fight. The guy blocked her hand movements because he knew she was much weaker than him. The shouting stopped when Kenji's father told them to be quiet in a harsh tone.Kj-Now I've been scolded!Ks-But you were the one who was shouting!Kj-No, I wasn't.After that, the couple tried to fall asleep, but they couldn't. It was deep night, and the two idiots were lying in the same bed, sharing a single blanket, as father had refused to give them a second one! To muffle their voices, they decided to venture out in the middle of the night. Comically, they opened the door of an ancient wooden wardrobe, which always creaked loudly to avoid waking their father. From within, they retrieved a large, old coat, which they draped over the girl's shoulders. From the bottom shelf, which he couldn't open quietly, Kenji took out a pair of oversized boots for her and put on a strange fur coat, and they set off. The atmosphere was eerie, and the night was cold and dark. There was frost on the pavement and rotting grass, and it was getting colder. The flowers had already decayed on the frozen ground. As they walked along the long path, their conversation became more intimate.Kj-..your threshold world is limited. I hope you grow up to be a complete person. Absolutely everyone needs social support..blah blah blah, besides, your threshold world is limited and you're alone in it, and in generalāKs-who are you to measure my threshold world with your physical tape measure?The girl argued, but she still continued to listen to his position. Kj-material happiness will bring you more pleasure than imagination! Ks-I can be happy on my own! Still, I've been living like that all my life!Kz-This is not normal. Why is everyoneāKs-I am not everyone! And no one will agree with me. I'll be alone. Everybody around is destroying me and my world. I don't want to interact with anyone.Kj-But not everyone is as evil. There's no point in holding grudges. Ks-I continue to sacrifice my life by being with you! My dreams are just a defense against your violence! I will never tolerate this again! And they continued to walk, breaking dry branches under their boots. Kj-Kasye, what do you think will be left after you?Ks-ruins. The endless jungle and abandoned memorials will remain untouched. Kj-What are you living for? Ks-The meaning is not always on the surface. The suffering and pain you experience are part of the journey that leads to yourself. Keep moving forward without stopping for a second. To continue to love yourself and to learn something new every day, kissing every step on the hard road. Even a swan with damaged wings will try to fly.After a long journey, they finally reached a cemetery, which was abandoned, with rotten soil and frost-covered gravestones. However, someone had recently planted a red rose next to one of the old graves.Kj-We are in the cemetery of suicides. Their funerals usually do not take place in ordinary cemeteries and burial sites, where a church. This is due to the fact that it is forbidden to bury sinners on the illuminated earth. Refusing to live a life given by God does not give a suicidal the right to be considered a human being. In the past, their graves were always located outside the cemetery, and one of these places was...Suddenly, after a long declaration, Kasye Peach suddenly disappeared. The guy was overcome by a rather strange and eerie feeling. Maybe like she never existed..the whole story from the child photo, the basement, the centipedes, the pink dress, and the cemetery..maybe she never existed....Kj-delirium.His reasoning led to the fact that it was morning, and he was going crazy because he hadn't had his morning coffee. The girl was known by others he had interacted with, and it had all happened for real, so he continued to look around. Kasye Peach was slightly behind him at the moment, not only in terms of development, but also because she was staring at one of the gravestones, which had a deep-scratched inscription: "Jessica Tommie Ren Bennet Ninn Isaiah." Whatever it meant, she didn't have time to think about it, because someone suddenly grabbed her hand. She was startled and turned around, find a young man sitting on his heels in front of her. His dark green hair covered his eyes, and he looked quite tired. Ks-I'm glad to meet you! How did you get here? The young man didn't even look at her, but instead pointed at her boots with his index finger. He seemed to find them warm, tall, and laced. He spoke in a closed voice:Nm-I don't have any shoes at all.. Look at my feet, I'm walking barefoot trying to find an artifact to turn back. Ks-I'd be happy to give them to you! My ability is flight, and I also think that whoever brought me here can carry me in his arms.The Nameless guy didn't expect the girl to be so kind. In the Arcades, Kasye walks a lot, causing deep blisters on her feet. For her, her feet are the most valuable and strong part of her body, so she didn't feel bad about giving away shoes, which didn't even belong to her, to this guy who told her about how he walked barefoot digging graves, climbed trees and fell off them often, and how his feet got cold in the first snowfall! The shoes were very comfortable for him. After a quick break, the main character walked a short distance and encountered her man standing in thought. In front of him, she decided to look weak, as if someone had grabbed her and she was scared and he didn't save her, so she lost her shoes! The acting was beautiful, she tried to show how she was falling to her feet from fear and cold, how he didn't save her, but she was only falling lower in his eyes! Still, he had to carry her in his arms, muttering that she might catch a cold. On the way back, both of them were lost in their thoughts. Of course, this was not how he imagined a date at a cemetery to be...When they returned to the same house, neither of them managed to sleep, as the paperwork was indeed challenging. And because they hadn't slept all night, they decided to take a nap in the evening, which almost caused them to miss the Halloween festival. Before falling asleep, the girl helped him make his bed, and Kenji was in a depressed state. They managed to lie down on top of each other, with the adult lying on top of the silly girl, as he was truly exhausted and had not rested during the weekend he had taken off from work. At that moment, the only light in his room was a dim, yellowish bulb. Kasye stroked his head as he lay on her chest..heavy, but so fragile. Quite by accident, the girl noticed scars on his arms from heavy cuts. The most cute and at the same time frightening thing was that among the usual thin cuts there were new deeper ones, and some resembled the shape of a heart. He was clearly doing this for a very long time and it could have been stopped once. The wounds were getting deeper with each time. Some of them were still red.Ks-tell me please..Why do you keep cutting yourself? Kj-because..It hurts. Ks-but you can get support in other ways..He didn't say anything in response. To break the silence, Kasye Peach began to sing in a melodious and calm voice. It was so soothing, and Kenji didn't remember his mother, but he did remember her lullabies. It brought him peace, and in his mind, he realized how long ago he had died and how tired he was. They fell asleep together.The sweet couple was in a pleasant hustle and bustle, as they were planning to attend a festival!! Millis and Linn were enjoying their youthful lovely moments together. After passing the document check, they were successfully allowed into the Arena. The Arena is a location, almost an island, where all abilities and magic do not work at all. Because of this, it has become a place for safe celebrations. The entire island remains in the style of the Middle Ages, as it has a rich history. Walking around, there is a huge circus tent in one part! It is usually filled with vendors selling snacks and various entertainment options. On the other side of the Arena, there is a vast and dense forest, with a medieval castle nestled within it. In fact, it's quite historical, as it's related to wars and the magical wand, which at that time could be obtained by anyone, regardless of their ability to use it. As a result, magic is now viewed with skepticism in the world. The Middle Ages may be unfamiliar to many, but the Arena is highly regarded. In the evening, Leafy Citrusses, as an independent girl~~, arrived at the festival and immediately went to the mountains to look at breathtaking view. It was already dark, and the stars were visible, making it easier to breathe from above. Additionally, the mountains are located near a dark forest.My elves were a little late, and they didn't come in the most legal way... That bastard put the handcuffs back on her arm, and he attached the other handcuff to his arm. Because of the girl, they almost overslept! To get their minds back on track, the guy bought himself a small but still alcohol drink. He only had a sip, as he doesn't drink, and Kasye annoys him by constantly asking to try it! She drank half of his paycheck haha. Introverts don't like crowded places, so it's time to embrace the spooky! Kenji had prepared well for this festival, exploring all the underground passages to sneak into the castle. The couple discussed Halloween like an older brother trying to scare his younger sister! They reached a place where no one went. The girl didn't want to go down the ditch, as it was dirty and creepy! And in general, going down with someone who bullies you was terrible! But she had no choice, she felt constrained and fear. It may cost her life to obey. Going a little further along the unknown underground ditch, they managed to open an old wooden door and going up the stairs they got into the room of old gray bricks. From the grates from above, the moonlight penetrated into the room. Time was approaching midnight and it turned out that they were in the castle. It was fenced and guarded from the outside, so the couple tried to be quiet. There was a lot of junk inside, construction debris was lying in the corners, it was very dusty, obviously it had not been visited from the inside for a very long time. Kasye stood in the middle of the moonlight and looked at the room around, Kenji at that moment glanced at her and said in a whisper: Kj-can you be my corpse bride..The moonlight shone so brightly on her thinness that he wanted to look at her forever, but he had to answer the question:Ks-Are we in the castle?Kj-sheesh, be quiet!!She tried to continue in a whisper:Ks-But we can't go in here! They became curious and ventured deeper into the castle. When they entered another room, they found a loaded crossbow on the floor. The guy didn't pay attention and tried to move on, but he heard someone pick up the weapon, and when he turned around, he saw his partner pointing a loaded crossbow at him. Raising his arms, he whispered harshly: Kj-what are you doing, put it down, I said!!She couldn't shoot it, probably because it was broken. So she carefully placed it on the floor, and Kenji approached her. The girl, sitting on the floor, covered her head with her hands in fear, feeling that she might be hit. Kj-let's go.He said it louder than a whisper.After walking a little further, they came across a door with a large lock. It felt like it was hanging there just for show. Kasye tried to crack it, at the behest of an adult, with a pin. Nevertheless, she succeeded and opened the door, Kenji looked inside and his face distorted into a huge smile. Turning to her, he abruptly blindfolded her and, putting his hand over her mouth, carried her into this creepy room. Kasye tried to resist, but he turned out to be much stronger than her. After removing the bandage from her head, her arms were spread out and her legs, with her knees touching, were also bound. She was now crucified on a wooden cross. In front of her stood Kenji with a sly smile, twirling and flipping a knife in his hand. Ks-n-no...AAAABefore she could say anything, the guy threw the knife in her direction, and it embedded itself into the nearby tree, causing Kasye to scream. Kj-have you heard about torture in the Middle Ages?Throwing another knife, it flew past. Kj-have you heard about the wheel of fortune? Throwing a third knife, it bounced off her body because was made of plastic. And Kenji continued his speech.Kj-see, you're out of luck. And before that, all the knives were real.Ks-stop it...Kasye Peach mumbled through her tears of fear. It was an injustice, a heavy pain, and a hatred that someone would treat her life so cruelly! There was a loud laugh, and her thoughts were interrupted when the antagonist approached her and put a knife to her throat. Tears streamed down her face, and she couldn't understand why she was suffering for no reason.Kj-deeper. He threatened her and thrust the knife into her throat, forcing her to swallow deeper. The knife touched the wall of her throat, so he pulled it out. Kasye was completely pale, and she couldn't have done more. Kenji felt her cheeks, as she had fainted after a good tongue job. She was cold and numb with fear, very beautiful. After removing her body from the shackles, she was so limp that he had to carry Kasye Peach again.Kasye Peach came to her senses leaning on Kenji while sitting on a bench, it was quite cozy under the light of a yellow lantern and a dark sky. Kenji bought her cute fish-shaped buns with pumpkin filling. She was eating when woke up almost immediately, but her arms and legs still hurt from being tied up. The fireworks started, the guy leaned back on the bench with his head tilted back and almost fell asleep like a ghoul. The girl was watching the fireworks while eating a bun, even though they were almost invisible.At the same time, Leafy Citrusses was sitting alone on a rock, because none of her friends had agreed to go with her to meet Halloween there. Of course, she was bored, she always in a group of friends, but now alone. Even the fireworks didn't bring her joy, and she longed to fill the emptiness within herself with parties, alcohol, and meaningless conversations.A cute couple was walking together. After admiring the fireworks, they stopped near the tents.Kasye and Kenji were walking calmly, but when the girl looked up, she noticed Linn!! They decided to approach them, and the adult guy rolled his eyes. There was silence, confusion, and awkwardness. They just looked at each other with great awkwardness. Kasye Peach bowed to the boy in appreciation and greeting, and Linn nodded her head in response. Leafy appeared out of nowhere, almost running. Lf-Lincoln, can I get an autograph? An autograph!! Ln-I don't give out autographs...Lf-Kasye, you're here too!While the bunny was jumping around everyone, Kenji was looking at his phone, and Kasye Peach was looking at Linn with his girlfriend and the bunny jumping in front of him with a sad look of injustice. "Do I deserve this violence...why am I enduring all this, while he is doing well? Lincoln may not have changed the situation, but he has left a good impression. He already has a girlfriend, and he will save and help her in any situation, while I will die alone and in pain."Kj-and the crows will peck out your organs in the dark forest, and the foxes will steal your flesh..Ks-what!?She must have been saying these words to herself again in mind, or he decided to focus on her thoughts. Either he figured out what she was thinking, or they were already reading each other's minds. Millis noticed that the girl was in handcuffs, and something was amiss. However, the boy decided to engage in conversation by asking a question:Kj-Did you find a girlfriend? Ln-Um, yes...and whatāKj-Did she fall face-first into the powder?At the moment of their conversation, Millis approached Peach and gave her her hairpin, for she loved to wear a huge number of them on hair. While everyone was arguing, the girl managed to open the handcuffs and rush away. She seems to run well, but every time she tried to fly, she failed. Lincoln started to worry again, because it all happened in front of him, and he might get his ass kicked again. But Kenji was used to her running away, so he just said, pointing his index finger at the cute boy with the pink hair.Kj-You're going to get into huge trouble.And he left. Leafy Citrusses disappeared as quickly as she appeared.***As the sweet couple walked back, they had a conversation: Ml-What kind of girl is this? I feel so sorry for her, and why is she walking with an adult man she clearly doesn't like, and she's handcuffed! I feel so sorry for her, she looks lost and scared..Ln-Kasye Peach. This situation has been going on for over a year.. As I can see, nothing has changed since it started. So it's better for us mere mortals not to interfere, because there's nothing we can do about it...Ml-It's so sad.. By the way, she bowed to you. She must think you're a good person!Ln-Well, Although I treated her like a child, I was a little rough to prevent her from getting used to me.. And she still continues to thank me!Ml-I've heard that the forest elves sincerely thank anyone who has been kind to them. I just read about their religion, it's twigs, leaves, and trees.With such a simple conversation, they reached the portals and parted ways...
