"What's going on, Haruka? Are they okay...?!" Ask Bakuzen.
"... ..." Kou fell down instantly with both of his eyes dead as he could read Haruka's mind clearly until he learned of the situation.
"Kou...!" Ophilia began to approach Kou and then saw a seemingly flat expression, no expression she showed, only a void she could see and feel.
"Mama! Mama! Mama!" Shinobu started to tug at Kou's clothes in order to resuscitate her.
"... ..." Kou closed his eyes and lowered his head when he noticed another painful problem, the hole in his heart was getting bigger than before.
"What's really going on...!?" Bakuzen asked with a look of annoyance as the situation around her sounded so silent.
Haruka walked out of the cave while holding Hinoka who was still asleep, "... ..."
"Hinoka...!" Bakuzen began to approach Hinoka and then he held his daughter and checked her condition.
"Hinoka is fine..." Haruka bit her lips so hard that it bled out.
"Honoka... already died..."
"...a few minutes ago..." Tears flowed profusely through his two eyes but his expression looked like it was restraining emotions.
They were all instantly shocked instantly, the shock they got was huge because a powerful Legend like Honoka who could control reality was pronounced dead in this kind of situation.
Their hearts beat so fast that even one of them was unable to move his body due to the shock, Bakuzen walked into the cave then he was shocked by Honoka's shattered body.
"... ...!!!" Bakuzen widened his eyes until his tears flowed out, he started giving Hinoka to Haruka.
"HONOKAAAAA....!!!" Shouted Bakuzen loudly, he hugged the corpse body of Honoka who already had no life essence whatsoever in it.
The cave began to shatter instantly, turning into air until it showed Honoka's shattered body, some of them were shocked when they saw it and felt fear because someone who was fighting it turned out to be quite sadistic.
"Honoka...?" Ophilia said softly.
"No way... oi... This is impossible isn't it!?" Haruki asked with a look of shock as he did not expect that someone would kill him in such a sadistic manner.
"Who can... do this to him?!" Arata asked while clenching the two so that Kuro who was inside him felt something familiar.
"No way...!!! All this is impossible...!!! How could my wife die like this...!!!" Bakuzen shouted loudly while hitting the ground until it was destroyed.
"Haruka...! You can use time magic, right!? Resign time..quickly..please..."
"...save my wife...!!!"
Haruka could only be silent with her tears flowing constantly, she shook her head to give Bakuzen an answer that the resignation of time could turn the situation into a lot worse.
Haruka began to give Hinoka to Ophilia to hold her for a while as she wanted to show her the ability to resign that time before them.
"Time-Wind..."
ZBAASSHHH!!!
Haruka bounced back until she fell on the ground, Koizumi went straight to her, "Mama...! What's up?!"
"The law of heaven forbids me to resign my time.My brother's death is officially inscribed in the stone of destiny." Haruka said so she covered her own face.
"I've also done the resignation a few times.but. since I chose from the paralysis..."
"...I can't use it!" Haruka held tightly to her hair, she started crying because of the loss of her adopted sister which felt like a close biological sister to her.
They all grew increasingly shocked to the point of not being able to do anything but grieve for the fallen Honoka, Bakuzen was also unable to do anything but kneel before his wife's corpse.
"I'm sorry..." Said Kou slowly.
"Why are you apologizing, Kou? You're clearly innocent." Said Arata.
"No. I'm sorry.I'm sorry...! I'm sorry...!!!" Said Kou while holding tightly to her hair.
Both of his tears let out many tears until he considered Honoka's death his fault as well, Shinobu started hugging Kou from behind until winning her over.
"Mama..."
"Koneko..." Kou held onto Shinobu tightly and looked at Honoka before him with a sad look.
"Damn it.. Who did this...?!" Kou clenched his teeth in annoyance.
"We have to bury Honoka's body so she can live a quieter life." Said Yuuna who started approaching Honoka's body but Bakuzen stopped her.
"No. at least let me spend a little time with him..." Said Bakuzen who began to tightly hug the body of Honoka's corpse.
A situation of silence, feelings of sadness and resentment surfaced in their respective hearts even their tears to the point of flowing out because Honoka herself had done many beneficial things during her life.
They have great respect for a Legend who often uses reality magic to fix things and even help them all.
Honoka's death did not feel in vain because she saved the hope that was given to her own son, Hinoka.
Hinoka slowly opened her eyes, she could see Koizumi was holding herself with an expression that looked worried about her cousin.
"Koizumi~ Morning~!"
"Yes.morning... Hinoka's." Koizumi said slowly, she lowered Hinoka until both her cheeks began to be touched by Hinoka.
"Why that face? Where is the cruel and cold expression you always showed?" Hinoka asked with a look that looked so cheerful.
Seeing Hinoka getting up from her nap made the situation even more difficult, they didn't know what to say to the still small, innocent, and cheerful Hinoka.
"I just took a nap with Mama... Where's Mama?" Ask Hinoka.
Hinoka looked at Bakuzen who was hugging Honoka's body while crying, she immediately approached her father with a look that looked confused because of Bakuzen.
"Papa...why are you crying...?" Hinoka asked while tilting her head.
"Mom..." Bakuzen was surprised when she saw her daughter was awake, Hinoka started to look at Honoka who was seen still napping for her.
"Mama! Mama! Wake up...! Let's eat!!!" Hinoka started jumping around while groping both of her cheeks.
Hinoka continued to call Honoka and invite herself to eat but she did not get any answers until she began to feel something strange, Honoka did not answer him at all.
"Mama's still sleeping... Mama says you can't take a nap too long, you'll be lazy." Hinoka said as she looked at Bakuzen.
"Father! Mama just got naughty and took an old nap!" Said Hinoka with that innocent look.
"Hinoka..." Bakuzen tries to tell his three-year-old daughter about the painful truth.
"Start from now... You don't have to play with Mama anymore huh...? You have both of your cousins, don't you?" Bakuzen asked who started to hug her.
"Ehh...? Why can't I play with Mama? Before taking a nap, Mama would invite me to eat and play."
"Hinoka... Your mama will sleep forever, rest.it means she can play with you again even pay attention to you..." Bakuzen.
"Ehh...? Why...?" Hinoka's once cheerful and seemingly instantaneous expression changed, she looked confused and worried when she found out Honoka would not play with her.
"Your mama has met her time... death... You know...? People who have met the time of death will never be with us again for good..."
Bakuzen said it with feelings that continued to grow sick even Haruka and the others could only remain silent, feeling sorry for Hinoka who was abandoned by her mother at the age of three years, such an innocent time for children.
"That means... Mama doesn't want to get up and play anymore...?" Ask Hinoka.
"That's right.. Before that, Mama must have told you to stay strong and play with Papa with your two cousins...?"
"But I still want to play with Mama." Hinoka looked at Honoka with a worried look, she began to think that Honoka was angry with her to the point of not wanting to play anymore.
"Mama, wake up.. It's morning..." Hinoka started moving Honoka's body with a worried-looking gaze now.
"That's enough, Hinoka... Mama will feel sad if you keep playing with her."
"But I. I'm not naughty, I'm according to Mama...!" Hinoka started hugging Honoka tightly.
"Mr...! Wake up...!"
"Mama wanted to show me something great...! Mama wants to market a good meal for me...!"
"My fun with my mom is not over yet...! Mama, let's play a little longer! I promise I'll eat all the vegetables!" Hinoka smiled widely as she looked at Honoka's face.
"Mama's not awake... Papa, please wake up Mama..." Hinoka started pulling Bakuzen clothes.
"Can't, son... Your mama can't play and accompany you anymore.she's been resting and sleeping forever..."
"Father! I'm begging... Mamma... Wake Mama!" Hinoka began to pull Bakuzen's arm so that she would wake Honoka up for herself because she wanted to play with him longer.
"Sorry, Hinoka can't start from now on, playing with Papa and your two cousins huh."
"Hinoka.. yes, we go play yuk." Koizumi starts taking Hinoka along because Haruka asks herself to look after Hinoka now.
"Sister Hinoka.. come on. play..." Take Shinobu while touching her finger with another finger, Kou also asked Shinobu to calm Hinoka down.
"Can! But I still want to play with Mama... My mom won't wake up. Please help...!" Hinoka started pulling Shinobu and Koizumi's arms to help her wake Honoka up.
"Sorry, Hinoka... Your mama... Your mama has slept peacefully, she will not wake up. She has rested without any interruption." Koizumi.
"No way...! I haven't done anything wrong...! I'm still acting like a good girl, not doing anything wrong!" Hinoka started to stare back at Honoka.
"That's right, Mama...? I'm not naughty, right.. I never bother Mama.... right...?"
Hinoka continued to ask Honoka about as such until she did not get any answers from him, all of them could only shut up when she saw Hinoka looking so innocent until she knew that Honoka would leave him for good.
"Mama didn't answer. I think I'm guilty..." Hinoka lowered her head, she started to sit next to Honoka.
"Mama, I'm sorry yes.maybe I did something wrong without realizing it." Hinoka grabbed Honoka's hand and kissed her.
"I'm sorry, Mama! Now it's... Let's play, Mama!" Hinoka began to pull on Honoka's arm until she could feel her body unwilling to move at all.
"Mama...why don't you want to get up...?" Hinoka asked with a worried look now.
Bakuzen began to hold tightly onto Hinoka's two shoulders, "Here you go, Hinoka. let your mama rest in peace up there."
"If you keep asking her then she'll be sad up there..."
"The angel took Mama away...?" Hinoka asked with a different look now, Bakuzen could see her expression that looked sad right now.
"But I. I don't do any bad. I'm not naughty, I'm according to Mama..." Hinoka started to stare at Honoka.
His two eyes glazed over instantly, he did not get any answers from his own mother so he began to feel guilty.
"Mama won't wake up because I'm naughty and chatty..." Hinoka started hugging Honoka's body tightly, trying to call out to her a few times.
"Mr...! Mama...! Mama...!"
"Mama! Mama...! Mama.. wake up dong..."
"Hinoka is lonely. I'm lonely. I promise not to be naughty anymore..."
"...let's do the little promise." Hinoka showed her smile back then she brandished her pinky and raised Honoka's pinky.
"I won't be naughty. I will be a obedient and strong girl! If I break that promise then the punishment is..."
"...mmm... Uhh! The punishment is I can't be spoiled to Mama!" Hinoka smiled at Honoka but she still did not get any answers.
"Yes, my mom is angry... Mama won't play with me anymore...?" Hinoka showed an expression that looked sad right now.
"Mama, wake up. I picked up some pears for Mama!" Hinoka walked away and he took a stone and turned it into a pear with reality magic.
Hinoka approached Honoka, the therapy he accidentally fell until his nose hit the ground hard enough to bleed, his knee also began to scratch until it bled.
"Ouch..." Hinoka began to sit on the ground while stroking her nose which was spitting out a lot of blood.
Hinoka got back up, Koizumi was surprised when he saw Hinoka's eyes glazed over, usually she would cry when she fell but now she endured the pain and crying.
"Mom..."
"Mama! I just fell down and it didn't hurt...! I'm not crying, I'm the girl you're referring to now?" Hinoka sat down in front of Honoka.
"Hinoka, your nose is bloody-" Koizumi tried to wipe the blood but Hinoka held her hand.
"It doesn't hurt. I'm fine."
"Mama! It's a pear. The food I really like is a pear isn't it, it's my apology gift." Hinoka occupies the pear above the Honoka site.
Honoka remained silent, not saying anything until Hinoka began to take the pear and peeled it with her hand.
"I peeled ya, Mama. The game is bribing each other!" Hinoka chuckled then he approached the pear to his mouth.
Hinoka could see his mother not eating the thought that even smelling the smell of pears that he always liked, he looked so silent with a smile still on his face.
"Oh, I'm first, huh? Then..." Hinoka ate the pear.
"Mmm~ is delicious.. Now Mama!" Hinoka tried to feed herself again.
"I can't. I need a place." Haruki walked away because he could not help the sight he saw.
"... ..." Arata turned his body around as well.
"Mama... don't want to get up... why...? Why, Papa...?!" Hinoka asked as she looked at Bakuzen with a look that looked scared and worried now.
"You can't play with you anymore, son..." Bakuzen who was still crying because she felt touched to see Hinoka who was so innocent still wanted to play with Honoka.
"Why.... why...?! Koizumi...! Koneko... You guys can definitely help me wake up Mama, right?!" Hinoka asked her two cousins.
Koizumi and Shinobu could only remain silent while looking the other way, they had understood the true meaning of death until they were unfortunate to see that the always happy Hinoka had lost her mother.
"Here you go, Hinoka. Let your mama rest in peace." Haruka approached Hinoka and she began to lift Honoka's body.
"Where are you going, right?" Hinoka asked with a look of sadness right now.
"I'll take him to his last bed..." Haruka said with a look that looked sad.
"Don't take Mama away from me. please..." Hinoka approached Honoka but Koizumi started to clasp her hand.
"Hinoka, your mother asked you to play with us, how about now...?" Ask Koizumi.
"But Mama. I still haven't shown myself to be a great obedient girl..." Hinoka said that her tears started to flow out due to the pain in her nose and knees.
Her heart also hurt because Honoka did not answer anything until she felt that she was hated until Hinoka continued to be let by Honoka.
"I didn't cry, Mama..it's just.. It's just a reflex that fell down... The sand went into my eyes..."
"Mama! Come main~" Take Hinoka, for the last time he did not get any answers so the clouds above that block the sun began to disappear.
The sun shone on Honoka's body until Hinoka began to remember the fairy tale that Honoka always told before she went to sleep that someday...
...Legends will sleep forever, never waking up because they enjoy a rest for all eternity.
They are transported to a world so beautiful filled with light, that's when Hinoka thinks that Honoka is asleep for good because of her mischievous behavior.
"Did Mama leave because I was naughty...?! Please forgive me, Mama... I will not be naughty anymore...!!!" Hinoka screamed loudly as she let go of the cries she was holding.
"I don't want to be left by Mama...!!! Hix... Mama...!!! I want to be with Mama...!" Hinoka started to approach Haruka slowly while pointing at Honoka.
"Please don't sleep forever.Wake up, Mama..let me listen to your welcome again..."
"...I want a kiss and a warm affection Mama...!" Hinoka continued to cry because she felt guilty when Honoka would not answer.
"Don't leave me, Mama...! I still want to eat pears with Mama...!!!" Shouted Hinoka loudly who was crying like a child, this was the first time he cried so hard because of being lived by Honoka.
"YAMAAAAAA...! Hweeeehhhh...!!! MOMMY...!!!" Jerit Hinoka hard.
"Your mother is not angry with you, Hinoka, she is so happy and happy that she managed to give birth to a cheerful girl like you!" Haruka started talking.
"If you keep crying like that and don't let Mama rest then she'll be sad up there..." Haruka said with her feelings growing more and more painful.
"But Mama... Mama...! I... don't go...!" Hinoka started to approach Haruka who took Honoka away.
"Did Mama leave because I was naughty...?! Hweeeehhhhh!!! Mama...!!! Wake up, Mamaaaa...!!!"
"YESYYYYY!!!" Hinoka fell down again, unable to get up because of her two knees that started bleeding until she continued crying.
"HWAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
"DON'T GO...!!!"
"I'M A OBEDIENT GIRL... I'M SORRY, MAMA..."
"YYYYYYYY....!!!"
