Moire, Arthur, and (Y/n) sat in one of the table at the corner side of the first floor in the brothel. One of her servant brought them teas, a very decent one. Moire took a sip, followed by Arthur and (Y/n). She noticed something uncommon from the tea.

"Quite an exotic taste." (Y/n) smiled softly,"Where did you get this?"

"I planted it on the mountain not far from here. It's a rare tea, combine it with different flowers." Moire explained.

"I see. It felt... nostalgic." (Y/n) calmly reply as she took another sip of the tea.

"Talking about nostalgic, aren't you two curious about what happened in the past?" Moire asked.

"About that... I think we should start it first with her." Arthur suggest.

"It's not about who's first. Because both of you are involved in the event that are not happening in this world."

"What do you mean?" (Y/n) curiously asked.

"It was a long story, happened in a place where Light and Darkness always in war."

Flashback story

It was long ago, in the land where the Light and Darkness couldn't leave each other privacy as they always having war for decades. Their differences in everything make them unable to cooperate or even lived together. Especially about their point of view about life.

The Darkness thought that life is weak, unfair, and selfish. Letting itself to have control of desires. That's why they wasted it. While The Light thought that life is a will, gift, and have to be cherised. That's why they supported it.

Both of their opinions contradicting one another. Each side have their own value to be kept. The Darkness value that life itself should not be supported. While The Light value that life is the gift that must be protected. With their differences, they always trigger a war. With The Darkness trying to prove that life it should be wasted by consuming people's heart with darkness and The Light light's it with their power, making people back to their sense. Either directly to them or through a second or third person.

Their war never ends. Until one day, the Goddess of Light was kidnapped by the God of Darkness. It was the point of where The Light starting to crumble.

She was taken forcedly by him into his territory, making her unable to use her power. But her light never left her. He let her free in his world, with intention to make her into one of him. But, his choice was so wrong.

As she lived in the world of Darkness, her light never left her. Instead, it looks shinier than she was in the Light. Her light didn't hurt the eyes of anyone in his world. She radiates a warm yet gentle light.

The adults bullied her to the point where she came back to his castle with blood rushing out from her wounds. He looked terrified and angry, making all his guards looking for people who hurt her. But for her, she didn't even felt any grudge to them. She didn't hate them, instead, she apologized for them.

"My Lord, please spare their lives. I can understand why they act like that. They just don't understan-" she explained as her words were cut by him.

"HOW CAN YOU BE SO WEAK?! WHY DON'T YOU FIGHT THEM BACK?!" he shouted, making her flinched in where she stand.

"I can't." she lowered her head.

"Don't tell me it's about the value that you keep in your stupid mind!"

"It's not."

"Then, why? Why you just stand there and let them beat you like nothing?" he asked.
