Yuahuatouri: A New Life Being a Legend

Chapter 356 - Hope Accompanying the Curse

"Listen yes, my little Minami.you are really special because you are the blessing that Shira gave me..." Megumi said while hugging Minami tightly, Minami was eager to find out a truth about a world filled with mysteries. Shira is not currently around so only Megumi can tell herself because she is more suited to this kind of problem.

"The point is that you don't have to worry about the mysteries of this world, you can search for the truth but you can't live the truth with what you want. Unlike Shira where she chooses the path she believes in with her own feelings as a worthy Legend, her passion and determination continue to help her to choose the path she can never know the truth." Minami continued to hear Megumi's words with a confused look, she was still 4 years old but was curious about the world she lived in.

"It is not always the truth that you know is true because everyone has choices and expectations that they believe in themselves. You can change that truth and even show the world that the real truth is not always true... the miracle is real but only comes if the person goes to great lengths to create a truth that can be seen as true by all."

"Therefore, Touriverse is filled with mysteries where everyone has their own path and hope with truths they consider to be false, true, and confusing. As your mother, I am sure that someday you alone will be confused by finding the way and the truth that you must carry out. The day you will be the hope that replaces your Father and Mother." Megumi smiled as she rubbed Minami's head and both ears down because she was afraid she would fail.

"Mama.. I want to be a hope that can replace you, a daughter who can continue the expectations of Mama and Papa if possible, I want to protect Touriverse and all the happiness that Touriverse residents feel. I want to grant all their dreams that can be achieved with all the peace that Papa has done..." Minami said with an expression that looked sad, her mind was constantly plagued by failure and she herself still did not believe in continuing the hopes of Megumi and Shira.

"You're really our daughter huh.really nice and clearly look like her father because of that goal, I've been thinking that you'd say that."

"But Mama, that means I have to sacrifice everything I have to achieve that goal, right? Would you agree if I tried to sacrifice myself to protect Touriverse? It seems like it is a very heavy task.hope can do anything but hope can also be used once..."

"That's why, my little Minami, you better not have a terrible way of hope, you better find something and believe what's inside of you. Like your great feelings and spirit, I know that Shira's spirit must have been passed on by her little daughter, this is Mother's warning..."

"...as your mother I will continue to support you, if you want to go on a very long and deep road like a new one then take that path. Even if you don't have the strength to go down that path right now, act and think that you won't regret it..." Minami was moved when she heard that, these words would clearly come out of a mother who continued to take care of herself from the baby, Minami wiped her tears that kept coming out, "Mama and Papa will keep an eye on you, remember that, son."

"Yes.I remember that from then on..." Minami said as she stared at the roof, she clenched her fists and then got back up with a serious-looking expression. His determination began to grow bigger and he continued to add by patting both of his cheeks a few times and waiting for Kou to wake up, he will look for a way to meet his friends because he himself still does not have the strength convincing enough to fight all this destiny.

A few minutes later, Minami sees Kou is awake and he wakes up in good time because the cube of time he holds can already be used to jump over time. It's time for them to leave behind a terrible time because the truth that sounds confusing enough, Kou holds Minami's hand and they leave that time using the time cube.

Minami and Kou land on land until he learns this time is an alternative too, a false dimension with a past. Minami let out a long sigh because she did not want to meet anyone especially her uncle named Shinra. Minami senses the whereabouts of her friends not far away, it seems like they are approaching and it turns out to be true because they look surprised when they see Minami and Kou finally coming safely, Minami was shocked when they did not ask Okaho.

"Minami, I'm glad you're okay." Marie said with a big smile, they all said the same thing as being grateful and happy when they saw Kou and Minami coming home. Minami did not hear any names related to Okaho until she saw Honoka who was turning her eyes in the other direction, she probably knew about Okaho, "Honoka, you know about your brother...? Okaho...?"

"That's how..." Honoka nodded and they all looked at Minami and Honoka with puzzled looks, "Okaho...? Who are you talking about?" Ask Hana.

"You guys.. It's not the time to joke right now, you don't know Okaho...?" Minami asked as she approached them, a truth and fact that Minami could not accept because the black cube that was lost would disappear from those inside. Such existences and existences simply disappeared.

"I beg you. Don't joke...! You guys don't know your own friends!? Someone who has asked you for help to help Haruka!? That's... Okaho Comi, Okaho Comi... You don't know her?!" Minami asked with a panicked expression and they looked confused, no one knew Okaho except for someone who watched her disappear just like that. Only Minami, Kou, and Honoka know Okaho.

Honoka was able to figure it out because she felt something missing inside her and it was clearly her Eternal side because the curse was just gone inside her. Minami felt very upset to see they all did not know of a friend who had been with her for many years, Kou tries to stop Minami who already knows about losing Okaho but he cannot accept it easily, he wants them to know Okaho who has sacrificed himself for the safety of Minami and Kou.

"S-Who brought you to this place... no... What is your purpose here...? Who brought you guys?" Ask Minami.

"Hm? It was clear Honoka was taking us, wasn't it? Did you have amnesia or something like that to the point of forgetting someone who was doing that?" Ask Mitsuki. Minami heard the same answer from all of them so that both of her eyes turned deep red and her fangs grew bigger because she did not want her best friend to be forgotten, just like that, Rokuro starts to get suspicious when he sees Minami going berserk and angry like that. He had already prepared himself to welcome the Minami attack.

"You...!!! USELESSAGGHHHHH!!!" Minami groaned so hard that she jumped towards them but Kou stopped herself by moving both fingers so Minami fell and fell asleep just like that, "A-What happened to Minami?" Ask Asriel.

Kou smiled then he shook his head and tried to tell them that everything was fine, Honoka began to help by approaching Kou and then raised Minami's body, "It is better now that we focus on our main goal before time runs out, Kuharu will definitely achieve that original time strength and ability."

""All right...""
