Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy

Chapter 247 247:A Matter Of Past

It may not look it like but she was aware and was able to perceive everything that happened in the tournament.

She saw the scene that none were able to witness.

When everyone fell, he stood up.

Like a gale of storm, his presence blew her mind and heart.

Like waves of a tsunami, his wrath flooded over the enemies.

The moment Lucas got possessed by someone, a shock went through her body.

Many questions arose in her heart out of nowhere seeing the cold emotionless face of Lucas possessed by someone

She felt a certain connection to him.

\'Why do you look so much in pain?\'

\'Why am I getting a familiar feeling from you?\'

\'Why does my heart burst out seeing you? What are all these emotions?\'

Alas, there was no one to answer those questions to clear her confusion and by the end, she passed out after Lucas\' forehead touched hers and she fell into a deep slumber.

.....

DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!DRIP 

The world bellowed with a mighty shower drenching the parched earth.

Under the crimson sky reeking with blood and amidst the destruction of the world wrecked into rubles, a man holding a woman in a wretched state walked across the blood-soaked soil.

The woman raised her chin to stare across the world that was at the end of destruction.

Stopping at a place that was freed of blood and destruction, a scarred face looked around at the rising sun spreading its crimson austere holding a frail trembling woman gently yet tightly.

The man felt as if the woman would disappear from his sight if he loosened his grip even for a moment.

His firm eyes looked a bit lost, seeing the short-haired woman filled with scars and bruises. Even though her skin had become charred and burnt, it still carried the allure of the charms she was born with.

She was a female fatale, capable of destroying the world with her charm. She was born with a golden spoon with everything at the reach of her hand yet she was reduced to such a state by the cruel world.

"Why do you have to go through all this, Your Highness?.. Just why is fate so cruel to you?"

"Stop calling me Highness, I am not a Princess any more and soon, I am gonna get my freedom. My days of hell are soon going to end." She refuted softly with a painful smile that tore the man\'s heart.

The man\'s heart pained and holding her hands, he spoke sorrowfully.

"I am useless...Until the end, I was useless and incompetent unable to share your worry. If I wasn\'t so weak, you wouldn\'t have to hide from people hunting after you." The scarred-faced man\'s voice choked at the end. 

The woman moved a bit as she stared at the man who had always been with her in the woes.

The Empire fell, and her parents were brutally murdered before her very eyes but before that, they used their remaining strength to allow her to escape.

With the hope of revenge, she could only run away so that her family\'s sacrifice wasn\'t wasted. However, it wasn\'t easy to escape in this wretched world.

A huge bounty was put on her name attracting countless people all over the world. Her disguise failed due to some people having discerning eyes.

Her beauty and charm became a disaster making it hard for her to hide so she destroyed it.

No woman would want to do this and might hesitate many times before taking this step but she ruthlessly destroyed her beautiful self.

She burnt her entire body and scratched it with knife marks from face to toes. She cut her angelic bluish-white hair into short and tried to make her as ugly as possible.

But despite all this, some people who had the power to identify souls managed to find her and surrounded her. As she resigned herself to fate, searching for people going after the bounty he appeared and carried her protecting her against the sea of enemies.

Unfortunately, he was late as she lost her lower portion and she used her life force to increase her strength, she almost became a cripple.

The only way to cure her was to use the sap of World but those fucker brunt the entire tree to ashes.

Now, staring at the saddened expression of the man, a beautiful smile appeared across her face.

"What? Are you feeling remorse now that you didn\'t accept my proposal at that time? Didn\'t I say that you will regret it if you don\'t accept it?" Even in pain, she gave a mesmerizing smile.

"I...." The scarred man\'s words got stuck as the woman put a finger across his lips.

"I understand how things have been difficult for you. You don\'t need to say that. I don\'t want to burden you any more.And I don\'t want to drag you down to death with me."

His heart shuddered to see that look and he spoke trying to suppress his fear.

"Truthfully, I may look tough but I am afraid of being alone, I am afraid of imagining life without you. If you leave, I don\'t know how….I just feel like losing myself."

"I feel suffocated just by thinking about this."

The woman spoke cruelly, shattering his heart but as he saw drops of tears trickling down from her eyes, he knew just how much pain she was going through.

He knew he was being selfish and if not for him she would have already killed herself after all how can a prideful girl like her who can make her enemies tremble in fear live like a cripple who can\'t even walk. If he were in her place, he might also do the same thing still, he couldn\'t accept it.

"If you hadn\'t saved me at that time, I may not be alive today. You are the reason I am alive and what I have become is all thanks to you otherwise I would be still wriggling under someone\'s feet waiting to be trampled."

The man who kept mumbling panicked seeing her not answering which made him afraid and his mind went blank while his body went cold.

He opened his pale lips to speak, but his body suddenly jolted forward due to being pulled.

Before the man could react, she held his neck and pulled him towards her and kissed him violently, sucking his lips, startling the man.

A chilling iciness erupted from her body that covered the entire place.

A bluish aura moved from her body and went across his heart and the power started to integrate into his body.

As he felt a sudden influx of power, his heart suddenly stopped beating as he noticed the auster in her eyes dimming.

Tears welled up in his eyes as he struggled to hold back his emotions.

He squeezed her hand weakly and his eyes gazed at her face as if trying to capture every detail of her face and every memory of her and lock it in his heart.

Looking at her face was becoming pale, he spoke the sentence that he was never to muster the courage to speak.

"I love you." He spoke with a voice filled with untold sadness coupled with his boundless love.

"I love you today, I loved you yesterday and I am going to love you tomorrow."

"Whether it was in the past, present or future, I loved you and will do so in every possible timelines until we can be together."

His voice choked at the end as he watched her body becoming limp and her soul slipping away to which he whispered words of comfort with a smiling face and promising to cherish those precious memories forever.

After an unknown amount of time, his knees unable to muster the strength became limp and he squatted down holding her close to his chest with tears streaming down from his face knowing that she had gone away taking a part of him that would be missing forever.
