My future with them
A week has passed. I am in a better condition than before. Currently Ariel is feeding me. The cycle continues. I have recovered enough to walk but they still won’t let me do anything. It’s honestly troubling me. “What are you thinking?” (Ariel)“How long will you all look after me like this? It’s a bit embarrassing.” “No, you still can’t do any work. Your body needs to recover completely. We will not allow you to strain yourself.” (Ariel)Like that, I am always shot down. Everyone has said no to me. I have already accepted this. Besides, I would rather not get into any arguments with them.I honestly don’t have the right to do that. Like that, Ariel went to the kitchen once I was done eating.I never eat the same dish again in a while. All of them have a huge cooking repertoire. Even Shizuka has started cooking. She went to get some tips from her mother and came back with a full blown recipe book.The current members of this household are, me, Mona, Ariel, Shizuka, Ratri and Anais.
Re-emergence
“Our original plan…”, Ratri said before Serus opened his eyes, “was to die together. We would build a raft, get on it and steer it down the river with a bomb attached to it. It would detonate once we reached a fairly desolate spot.” “Who made that plan?” (Ariel)“Serus did. He was very keen on having a water burial. I just followed suit. It would have counted as double suicide.” (Mona)“In the end, that didn’t happen and if things had run its course, Serus alone would have died.” (Mona)Everyone sighed as Serus finally opened his eyes. It took him a long time to open his eyes. “Can you hear me?” (Mona)“I think his mind is still foggy.” (Ariel)“Maybe he lost his memories?” (Anais)“No, I think his brain got damaged partway through.” (Shizuka)They all lean over him and stare intensely. Serus looks at them. He breathes normally but he is looking around.“Did we mess up somehow?” (Ratri)But Serus is moving his lips. No words are coming out though.Mona leaned over even more to hear
Ratri’s past
Since Mona was being talkative enough Ratri decided to speak as well.“Can I say something?” (Ratri)After Mona had finished giving her explanation, Ratri raised her hand and asked.“You are finally willing to answer things as well.” (Ariel)“I thought I should share it with everyone. What Serus did while he was in India and what our original plan was? I think you all should know although those don’t matter anymore.” (Ratri)“It does. I want to know how you met Serus and the reason for your obsession with him.” (Ariel)“Me as well. It seems interesting.” (Shizuka)“Me too. He met you after saving me. I want to know what did he do back then.” (Anais)Mona is giving Ratri the go ahead look.“Then let’s start from my origin. I am also an artificial human. I was born around the same time as Serus because my original had died.” (Ratri)“Seina did say something like that before. Are you really similar to Serus?” (Shizuka)“Yes. My original or whom I refer to as my elder sister, Usha, was th
Mona’s past
How to say, my consciousness is back. I am conscious again. It’s great. Because I have been unconscious for so long that I was starting to disappear. I am conscious but my body is far from complete. I have accepted my fate. Well, that’s a metaphor. Fate is weird for creators. I have no idea where I am. I can’t see anything. Only my consciousness is back. My body isn’t. And I can’t separate my spirit from my body. I am in the dark. Maybe I should take a rest. I hope by the time I wake up, my body will also wake up. Sleeping as a consciousness isn’t weird. But I need to recover. Melissa did some weird stuff to my consciousness as well.Serus fell asleep. His body was already in a comatose state but his consciousness fell into slumber as well.His body is currently sleeping in his own house. The house he bought from Masato. Masato is still recuperating at the hospital. The situation has calmed down a bit.A few days have elapsed since the briefing at Seina’s house. Serus’s companions
War briefing
Upon their return, they were greeted by Seina with a glum look. They were at Seina’s house. Serus is recuperating and Seina had gone to assist his friends in war.“You are back early. Did something bad happen?” (Melissa)“Azathoth is on the move. He allied with the fallen ones.” (Seina)“That is bad. It’s plain bad. How are you all holding up?” (Mona)As a creator, she understands the gravity of this situation.“Not well. For now, no one has died. Keith is slowly recovering. But Clive is locked in a battle with Yami.” (Seina)Melissa and Mona gasp. It confused the others. “I never thought that even Yami would get involved.” (Melissa)“Exactly. He isn’t the type to wage war for fun. Azathoth must have coerced him into this somehow.” (Mona)“Is this system alright? Did we get attacked?” (Melissa)“No. Not yet. I guess they are avoiding me. Because attacking me first would mean angering three creators at once. They are trying to isolate us.” (Seina)The mood is somber. “Is this war rea
His wrath
They kept on walking until they appeared before a glass tank. The tank is full of water and there’s someone inside.“That is Serus’s wrath. Currently he is sedated.” (Melissa)Serus’s wrath looks exactly like Serus. There’s no difference. “Why is he submerged in water?” (Ariel)“Wrath is the sin which generates energy. To negate the energy, I have placed him in water. This is a special water. I had to ask another creator for this water.” (Melissa)“You could have just told me!” (Mona)“I didn’t want to interrupt your performance.” (Melissa)Mona is pouting her cheeks.“When I first contained his wrath, it was so great that I was nearly scorched. Normal water would evaporate the moment he touched it. That’s why this water was brought.Nowadays, he has calmed down a lot. His wrath still exists but it’s like a bottomless ocean rather than all devouring flames.” (Melissa)Then she took before what seems to be a door.“What is this door?” (Ratri)“This is Serus’s dining hall. His gluttono
