Class Fantasia: SIDE DATA

Load Data 16: The Blade That Defies The World

It's strange. I was sure that the path I took would lead to a GOOD END, yet why is the words before are GAME OVER painted in red? How odd. I wonder what had happened along the path? I can't remember.

"Destroy your so called friends."

Ah, that's right. I had made a deal with the devil. For the sake of having my selfish dream come true, I abandoned all happiness that I have in the present world..

"Sure."

I believed my path was not wrong. I wanted to be selfish. Yes, I desire this. If I could go back to that time I had with you, the words that were left unsaid would no longer be glued in my throat like a lump that cannot be swallowed..

In the end, I walked along the path of a BAD END. I could only hope that I did not drag anyone into the same conclusion as I did. But then again, can they do it? Can they prevent themselves from going the same road when I stand in their way towards a TRUE END?

Can they defy me?

"Welcome to the 75th Floor Boss Room!"

Can they prove that I was wrong to be selfish just like how all the stories end with?

First of all... why did this happened again?

...

"Huh?"

I was confused. Beyond confused actually. The looked of despair and all sorts of negativity in their faces disappear once they had gotten a good look at me. Now, it was as if they were looking at me like they always have...

Could they be underestimating me? Could they be thinking that I am joking? No. That can't be. They know that I would be the one to stand in their way. Yggdrasil made that point clear when he approached them during their encounter with Ion.

What was even more odd was that there was only the three of them. The trio that had been the flickering light in my darkened world before it faded out. Why? This was a boss room that they were heading to! Why would it only be just the three of them?

Then, are they underestimating me? That is not like them at all. If anything, that is my job...

Then, what?

"Izzy, you knew didn't you? The truth.", Fifi said as she walked in front of everyone and looked at me straight in the eyes. Eyes with unwavering faith in it. How? How could she still be looking at me like that?

Why?

"Then, the fact that you chose this path even after you knew the truth meant that you are serious with this. But even so, I promised you that I'll always be on your side. That's why I will save you from the path that you're dead on walking.", Fifi took her fighting stance as her energy spiked and wings sprouted from her back.

"[Heaven's Gale] so early, huh?"

Save me? What a joke. That line is so cliche. Can you really save me? When I do not want to be saved? Don't save me. Defy me. Prove me wrong. Prove to me that this path is foolish, that my struggles were in vain. Like how all cliche betrayals turned out!

"Prove it to me!"

If you are unable to do so, then be crushed by my very own hands as you all reach your BAD END. Just like how I would be soon.

Turning the world monochrome, I dashed forward and slashed towards Fifi before the world regained colour. Fifi however moved the wind so that my attack was resisted by the wind allowing her time to leaped backwards but immediately the colour was gone again as I leaped towards her back.
