Tales of Melodies

Lunatic War Freak

The sirens were going crazy, it felt there was a fire all around me, and my heart was beginning to pound. All my brothers are gone, but I hear it, the silence is gone.

I'm awake... and it's time!

I'm screaming like a psycho with two guns in my hand, firing until the magazines depleted and changing guns by grabbing the guns laying near the dead bodies.

How am I still alive?!

I hear them, I screamed from the top of my lungs and charged head on. Why am I killing them all? Why aren't they shooting back? Are we winning this war?!

I kept going and going, deeper into the enemy lines and I was there, the Echo of War. It was ringing in my head, what am I fighting for? What type of war am I fighting?

What year is it? Is this even worth it? The moment I realize, I was dead.

"You were already dead."

A voice said in my mind.

"Your comrades were obliterated by a catapult due to your commander being greedy to get a promotion."

Catapult? What do you mean?

"The war you were fighting, it's to conquer a Kingdom from another world."

Another... world?

"Yes, you are special. You can hear the Echo of War, a being who is hungry for battles, duels, even a war and cannot be defeated at a cost of your sanity. You were unable to control it at that time and could not feel the pain of the arrows hitting you."

Then, who are you?

"I'm the Echo of War, mortal. I decided to revive you 10 years later, and Liberate the corruption on this filthy world."

Does that mean... my original world is gone after 10 years?

"You're world I'm afraid, is gone."

I didn't say a word. I was only drafted, I know my parents are worried sick but 10 years has already passed by, and...

"Sob all you want. I will wait, I'll give you time, I'll be watching the outside to see what has changed in the Realm of the Living."

I cried immediately, I felt the pain, my parents, everyone who I care, even my dog... the Aftermath of the arrows hitting my body all over me, it was unbearable until I realized I could feel it in here.

"This world is in ruins, those nobles and even the Three Kings, this isn't like the former world I used to live in, it's filled with corruption and other instances. This mortal can help me, and helping himself to find a new home."

The Echo of War waited until I was finished, it already knew that I was ready, and 10 years later, I returned with a goal, helping the Echo of War.
