CHAPTER 6 -- Exiled King
[Shikaku fell asleep after the tiring events that occurred throughout the day]
[Shikaku's dream]
[A voice in the silence]
Sa-
[The voice's attempt to speak was a failure it seemed like something cut it off]
My 16th as an inmate
Today i went on to have conversation with Kenji since it's been a long time since i last talked to him i wanted to keep our 'friends' status as it was
[Shikaku who was rather eager to talk with kenji, to his surprise kenji was the one to strike up a conversation despite his rather introverted behavior]
[He screamed at the top of his lungs]
"SHIKAKU!"
"Yes I'm shikaku"
[Pointing his finger at Shikaku's eyes]
"You're eyes, their color changed from black to white"
i was shocked but i tried to maintain my composure because this could be a result of my meeting with Alastor
[In a rather casual tone]
"Oh really?"
[With a shocked expression still pointing at Shikaku's eyes]
"You're eyes are white!"
[with a shocked yet cold expression in the same casual tone]
"really?"
[The atmosphere quickly was striped of it's oddness and then they went on to talk normally]
"So kenji you got anymore interesting stories up your sleeves?"
[Kenji replied with a rather happy look on his face in an enthusiastic tone]
"Well i got some you can decide by the titles which one seems most interesting to you."
"It seems like he got lonely because of me not talking to him" i thought to myself, i was rather happy to have a talk with Kenji after a long time too it might have not been that long for Kenji
But i lived through 3 lives in that time, Alastor didn't just show me and narrate me the user's history he made me have every bit of memories the user's had i felt everything
[After a Slight Pause]
Their death's as well
[Kenji waved his hand at Shikaku]
"Hey you there?"
[Shikaku replied loudly shouting at Kenji]
"YES?"
[Kenji ignored the loudness of the reply and went on to tell the titles of the tales enjoying telling every name.]
"The dragon's Fury, Evil genius of the Mather's domain ,Song of god ,Hell's Judgement
Or"
[Kenji said in a low sounding voice whispering to Shikaku]
"The Exiled King?"
[Shikaku said amused by this tale's rather interesting name]
"Yeah the Exiled King's Tale seems pretty good and interesting sounding to me"
