Soul Delivery (English)

Bloody Marriage Part 2

Heka was stunned. His body went limp when he saw his parents being hit by the shards of the lamp glass. And they were also being hit by an electric shock.

He hoped that all this was just a dream. He was dreaming. He needed to wake up from his nightmare and return to the real world.

Everything that happened in his life was an illusion. What happened this time convinced him of daydreaming. He jumped over time. His parents had died right in front of him. It was unreasonable events. It was definitely a dream.

But there was something that convinced him that he was not dreaming at all. Everyone’s screams felt so real to him.

When both of them fell down, he did not stay silent. He rushed over and saved them. To determine whether he was dreaming or not.

But, Clancy prevented him because she saw the falling cable and the short circuit. “Heka…!!! Don’t close!!! It’s too dangerous.” Because Clancy was overwhelmed and unable to contain Heka, everyone helped her.

Heka could only scream for them. He tried to escape from everyone who prevented him. Meanwhile, Clancy’s father tried to find the switch and immediately turned it off. But it was all too late.

After the power went out, Clancy released Heka. She let Heka approach them.

The other also immediately helped everyone who was still trapped among the wreaths.

Heka immediately ran to them. He hugged them. He sobbed. The rain was unable to cover the tears. The blood flew down his shirt.

He had found the answer. “This is not a dream. But this is all real.”

He grabbed his wrist to check the pulse. Unfortunately, he could not feel any beat of his wrists.

Heka felt shocked, because it meant that there was no time left to save them.

Behind his tears, he clearly remembered what Ansel said, “Bloody Marriage, that’s what you have to pay for. So you shouldn’t accept Soul Delivery.”

At first, Heka only felt that Ansel was just bragging. He thought about it. This time, he had proven to himself what Ansel had said was true. It has happened already.

He felt very sorry for being obsessed and insisted on getting Soul Delivery. Although, Ansel warned him several times not to do soul delivery.

What happened was his fault. It was all the same as he sacrificed his parents.

“Mom… Dad…. I’m sorry. It’s all my fault…”

Unfortunately, it was all too late. There was no point in regretting and fixing everything. Therefore, it would never make his parents come back to life.

He just wanted to get rid of insomnia completely. There was nothing more. Even though it was only temporary, just in a few days. But he never expected or thought about sacrificing his parents.

He was also ready if it had forced him to sacrifice one human soul. He would like to sacrifice his own soul as a guarantee, not someone else, not his parents.

Clancy, who saw Heka sobbing and slumped, tried to approach him. She sat right behind him. It made her gloomy, so she cried.

She tried to make him calm. She hugged him. She wanted to say something, even though only one word, so it could make him calm. But it seemed there was no suitable word. Hence, she chose to remain silent and hugged him.

She saw someone approaching them. But she didn’t recognize him at all, just saw his feet. She released him from her arms.

They looked up to see who was standing in front of them. But Clancy didn’t know him at all. She was not his sister’s guest or her parents’ acquaintance.

Then Heka said in a very low voice, but Clancy could still hear it. “Ansel…”

She felt that Heka knew the person standing in front of them. She thought maybe Heka invited his friend without telling her. She also wondered who was standing in front of them and what he had to do with Heka.

****

Heka had no idea when he saw Ansel at Stacy’s wedding as an uninvited guest. He didn’t tell Ansel about Stacy’s wedding schedule at all. Everyone who was there absolutely didn’t know him.

If there was, someone must have approached him.

He thought it didn’t matter at all. He knew that Ansel did have something beyond human limits. So it was fair that Ansel easily knew when the wedding ceremony would be held.

 But there was one thing that Heka didn’t understand: “Why does Ansel come to this wedding? Is it to convince Heka that everything he says will definitely happen? Or does Ansel want to warn Heka, so that he will obey thing he wants to?”

Heka saw Ansel gave his hand to him. He looked at his hand. He was doubtful whether he should destroy his principles. He had promised himself before. He would no longer involve him in his life.

He stared into his hand. He thought it might not be bad thing to let Ansel get involved in his life. Maybe Ansel would make a big change in his life.

Finally, he grabbed Ansel’s hand and stood up. Even though he was weak, he tried to stand up straight.

Then, Ansel turned and walked away from the place without any words. He turned around at Heka as a sign to follow him.

He looked back and looked at Clancy. She sat next to her parents who were lying down. After Clancy gave a glance to let him go, he walked over to Ansel.

He left his parents, who had died with Clancy. Actually, it was a difficult decision to leave everyone he cared for, just for the sake of someone who had just met.

Heka just walked after Ansel’s steps. Although he didn’t know where Ansel would take him away.

When he looked at Ansel’s back, he felt that the person in front of him was someone else. He didn’t recognise him at all. He felt that Ansel was totally different.

“Is this just my feeling? Or is it all because of what has happened at Kiervant Sky?”

He tried to convince himself all the odd things that had happened to him just because of Kiervant Sky. He had no idea what that place it was. There was one thing he realized after he left Kiervant Sky. His life immediately changed completely.

First, he was exploring time. Second, the Bloody Marriage, which Ansel often warned about. It had already happened. He didn’t expect it at all. That his current life was completely out of logical moment.
