Capítulo 2: The Fall of the Monochromic Star
In the midst of the stars above the night sky, a bright star that radiates a subtle light; shifting from lightness to darkness, passes over the firmaments of the world. And in that spectacle of a sight, its abrupt fall causes the inhabitants of the world to fall in an uproar.
Before its fall, the people who've witnessed such astonishing light were amazed by the scenery of its brilliance, believing it as the "Miracle Star" from the legends. It was a prior phenomenon that happens once in a million years, granting the wishes of those who've foreseen it; bringing forth miracles to those who have strong belief.
However, as the radiant star falls over the horizon of the world; an unknown aura that emits an omnimonous power and was darker than the abyss was unleashed throughout the continent; engulfing the entire world. The unknown aura covered the world in a peculiar darkness and causes a downpour of rain that emits a faint illumination of light upon its contact.
The unknown aura was similar to the renowned Many Eyes who unconsciously creates a heavy atmospheric pressure to those who've heard their voices. However, the pressure was so intense than the one made by the Many Eyes that it pierces the inner realm of the many people instead of just atmospheric pressure.
The inner realm is similar to the origin and source of one's entirety but consists with three united parts; the spiritual soul.
The Spiritual Soul is a united will of a soul and spirit, whereas the soul is the consciousness of oneself; the spirit is the immortal subconscious of one's entirety. And in that inner realm, lies a universe of its own; created by a structure of complexity, formed by one's potential.
At that day, the unknown aura that killed about one-eighth of the world's population left the world in a state of turmoil and chaos. The people thought that the world is coming to an end due to the unknown entity's power, believing it as the descend of a divine being.
Nonetheless, the unknown aura that engulfed the entire world only lasted for about three seconds; causing confusion and disbelief towards the people as the world returns to its right state of mind.
However, the remnants of the unknown aura that remained in the sky was discovered over the west-southern part of the continent; leaving the people to believe that it was not a coincidence.
The kingdoms of the continents decided to march towards the location of the remnants of unknown aura that later disappeared on the next day. The people who've witnessed the march of the soldier became anxious on their action; believing that they must not disturb the descend of a divine being.
On that day, the inhabitants of the world returned to their daily and peaceful lives; forgetting the events that happened yesterday whilst the others decided to remember it, hoping the divine entity to bring them peace.
* * *
On the west-southern part of the continent where the star falls, a young child who's making a wish towards the "Miracle Star" was surprised by its sudden fall near their household and decided to approach it; discovering it to be an unconscious man in his 18s.
* * *
In a scenery of a vast plane of ocean that broads all over the horizon and still waters that ripples to every step that is made; a young man stood at its center.
It was a realm that was created by the unconscious, similar to that of a dream.
The young man decided to walk forward despite being in the middle of nowhere and an endless plane.
But in that crystal clear waters that reflects the image of the surroundings, an image of a woman whose delicate skin and beauty showed its elegance towards her surroundings stood in the center.
The young man felt her presence in an unknown span amount of time, in which tells that the realm itself has an unusual instability of time that made her appear.
"Who are you...?"
As he uttered the question, the figure of the woman that was once a silhouette appeared before his eyes.
Her appearance was that of a young woman in her 20s, having long white hair that reaches her hips and subtle light skin that shines like the moon of the night.
The young man stared towards the young woman who seems to have a familiar figure of someone he once knew. He carefully looked towards her face to know her identity but to no avail, it was vague.
Seeing the young woman was just an illusion with an unknown identity created by the realm made him doubt her existence. The young man thought that the illusion that was made before him was just to shake off his resolve.
However, the young woman who stood in front of him opens her mouth as she utters his name, revealing her true identity.
"Noro..."
At that moment, the young man who heard a nostalgical voice had his eyes wide open and speechless; causing his doubt to vanished.
He stuttered in disbelief as she responds towards the woman.
"O... chi... ra...?"
At that time, the man who was named Noro was bewildered by the unimaginable reunion; slowly approaching her as he reaches out his hands. Abruptly, the realm causes to collapse as he approaches her.
The skies began to fall like fabrics of glass as the darkness made its way through the realm of unconscious, and causing the plane to crumble.
Noro attempts to reach out the woman's hand in a hurry, but causes the distance between them to feel stretched out; separating them from each other.
Is it the realm's influence?
The perpetual darkness proceeded to intrude the entire realm as the time passes, surrounding the woman who stood in her stillness as tears began to fall upon her eyes.
Noro who've witnessed such a scene made him plunge into dismay; causing himself fall into a state of instability that unleashes the Burden who's creating its faint appearance.
However, as the realm of the unconscious was about to be consumed by the darkness; the young woman who stood fearlessly against the darkness, muttered in a soothing voice. The voice resonated throughout the entire realm despite the influence of the perpetual darkness that can act like a vacuum and the abyss, reaching out Noro who's in distress.
"Noro, I'll be waiting for you as I promised... So please, don't lose yourself..."
Upon hearing her words, Noro took one final glance towards the woman who stood in front of him; unperturbed by the surrounding darkness that is being illuminated by her light, the woman smiled at him; waking him from a very bad dream.
"Noro, you have to wake up now... go..."
"Ochira..."
A blinding light was unleashed throughout the realm.
As Noro wakes up from an awful dream, he found himself staring at a ceiling of a house; hearing unfamiliar words uttered by a child that was later adapted by the help of the world's laws.
"Brother...? Are you awake?"
Says the child whose eyes shines in curiosity upon seeing him.
"Mother! Mother! Big Brother is awake!"
The child run towards her mother with delight as soon as she sees Noro woke up. Noro on the other hand touches his head from a sudden headache after trying to remember his dream.
"What was that...?"
At that time, the mother who arrived at his room was filled with anxious after seeing him.
Her appearance was that of a commoner with a delightful youth, having short brown hair that is covered by a fabric of cloth and eyes that are as clear as the blue sky. The child on the other hand had a silvery white hair that shines translucently, having an odd eye of a crimson blood and ocean water.
"A noble blood... and a commoner...?"
The mother quivered as Noro muttered their origin by just a glance; frightening her due to his unbelievable preciseness.
"A noble...?"
The child asks in puzzlement.
Seeing the response of the child made him realize the situation of the mother and daughter, and decided not to probe further on their origins. He closes his eyes as he founds the answer to their situation.
"I see..."
The mother clenched her hands near her chest, shivering as Noro spoke in a realization. She thought that lowering her head towards him would solve their situation of not being involved with the nobles.
"I-I..."
However, before she kneels and beg for mercy; Noro raises his hands that stopped her from kneeling before him.
"You do not need to kneel before me. For I will not meddle in the path that you've chosen. But will help you for your needs on my stay."
Upon hearing Noro's words, the mother who was filled with anxiety began to fall on her knees; crying due to a sense of relief. The child became worried as she sees her mother on her knees while crying, causing her to worry on her mother.
"W-What did you do to my mother!?"
Asks the child in a courageous manner.
"L-Lily...!"
Noro was surprised by the child's bravery that shocked his eyes, he then smiled as he answers her.
"Hmph, your mother was happy from what I've said to her; for you and your mother will receive a plentiful of joy on my stay."
When the child heard Noro's kind words, the child immediately goes towards Noro's bed and grabbed his bedding; saying,
"R-Really!? Big Brother is so handsome!"
Noro flinched and became flustered upon hearing the child's word, caressing her head due to her innocence and purity.
The mother smiled in relief as she witnesses a beautiful scenery of her child and the young man who familiar figure of that of a father, worrying about the man who's still unknown to them.
