Chapter 2107 - Become Stronger From Now On
Even though Haru and Asagi had decided to go back along with Shiroyuki, they wouldn"t go back so suddenly and stayed until the Celebration of the Rise of the Fire Dragon ended.
The festival of the Rise of the Fire Dragon might have been disrupted because of the appearance of the Demon King, but they had won, even though there were some people who had pa.s.sed away because of the attack of the Black Percher with her subordinates.
Without a doubt, the power of the Demon King was powerful since if Haru let Black Percher rampage, then she might be able to ma.s.sacre the entire town in just a few minutes of time.
The power of the Black Death wasn"t something that could be scoffed off, and it wouldn"t be weird if the Salamandra disappeared like what had happened in the "no-name" community.
In the past, the "no-name" community wasn"t a weak community; instead, it was a powerful community whose name reverberated throughout the entire Little Garden. If it wasn"t attacked by the Demon King, then, without doubt, this community wouldn"t summon Izayoi, Asuka, and Yuu since, with the strength of their members alone, it was simply a child"s play to rampage around the Little Garden.
Everyone might be sad that some people, whether it was their families, friends, or acquaintances, had died when the Demon King had attacked the community, but even so, they knew that they had won against the Demon King. It was something worthy of a celebration, so the festival continued, but this wasn"t a festival like before. Instead, this festival was changed into a mix of celebration and mourning.
The feeling of everyone was mixed, but everyone knew that it was also their time to celebrate since without doubt that they had won against the Demon King.
However, even though they had won, their position was just a supporter and the main characters of this event were the "no-name" community since Haru was the one who defeated Black Percher, and of course, it caused the existence of the "no-name" community to be ignored instead the "no-name" community became one of the most famous communities since it could defeat the Demon King.
As Sandora presided over the celebration, members of the "no-name" group also sat together watching the end of the celebration before they returned to the East Side.
"By the way Asagi, where"s Haru?" Yuu suddenly asked.
When Yuu asked this question, they suddenly noticed that Haru had disappeared which made them startled.
"Did you forget that he"s going to perform?" Asagi said calmly.
"Perform?" They were dumbfounded.
"Really?" Shiroyasha was also dumbfounded even though she was the one who asked Haru to perform, but with this situation, who was in the mood to enjoy Haru"s performance?
Even though everyone was happy that they could defeat the Demon King, the damage that was caused by Black Percher wasn"t small. Instead, it was huge and it would be weird if they could celebrate this celebration happily without sadness by the loss of the people of the Sandora community.
"Um." Asagi nodded. "He"s going to sing."
"Sing?!" Everyone was dumbfounded.
"You don"t need to worry. Just believe in him, alright?" Asagi said with a gentle smile.
Hearing Asagi"s words, even though they were a bit strange, in the end, they decided to believe since they knew that Haru had always brought them a surprise and as expected when Sandora ended her speech, she announced Haru was going to sing for everyone.
When Haru appeared, everyone was surprised and they also cheered since they knew that the reason why their town could be saved was because of him and at the same time, the women and the girls in this town also became so excited since he was just too handsome.
Haru had promised to sing so he decided to sing so this time he decided to sing a song to make everyone in this place feel better after what had happened to them.
With Sandora"s words, Haru sat on the piano bench then started his performance.
Asagi and the members of the "no-name" community were also in silence, following everyone since they were also quite curious about what kind of song that Haru was going to sing.
"As though to inform us of summer"s end, they lined up along the roadside quietly and bloomed."
As his voice fell, everyone felt that there was a gentle golden light enveloping them which made their heart calm and warm.
Haru"s voice was beautiful and soothing to everyone who heard it.
Even Izayoi, who had always tried to challenge Haru at this moment, didn"t think that he could win against Haru in terms of singing.
As his song continued and they indulged in his voice, they quickly realized what Haru"s song was about, which made their eyes red and they were in tears since they were moved by the lyrics of this song.
"This isn"t goodbye
I"m just heading to a faraway place with an unknown name
Even if we are apart, you will still be in my memories, breathing, living."
Hearing those words, their lips trembled, and realized that even though their families, friends, comrades, or acquaintances might have pa.s.sed away during the Demon King"s attack, it didn"t mean that they had died. Those people had just moved to the faraway part and even though they were parted now, they were still living in their memories, breathing, and living.
This song not only touched the people in this city but the members of the "no-name" community were also moved by this song since this song described their situation very well. Previous members of the "no-name" community also disappeared because of the attack on the Demon King. They didn"t know their condition, some of them were still alive, but some of them might have died. However, they knew that they still lived in their memories.
"This isn"t goodbye
Even though we feel lonely for not being able to face each other, just having a place here that we want to return to, just that alone can turn that loneliness into strength."
Haru also used all of his feelings in this song, singing with all of his heart and causing everyone to feel that they were golden bubbles everywhere, giving everyone the power to fight again, full of energy, but even so, they still remembered the memories of their precious person that had moved far away.
Asagi was already full of tears and thought that Haru made this song for her, especially when she thought about their conversation last night. She knew that he wouldn"t stop her, but at the same time, he reminded her that what was important was that even if her mother had pa.s.sed away, she was still living in her memory. "Thank you, Haru..."
"This isn"t goodbye
I"m just heading to a faraway place with an unknown name
Even if we are apart, I will never ever forget
The warmth in my memories…"
They might move far away, but even so, they would never forget them and use that feeling to become stronger from now on.
