YM778.TV Chapter 323 - Don't You Dare Die Part 2
Uriel\'s functioning eye dripped with tears as she realized that Maya had not even given her a single glance since the moment of her arrival.
\'Is this how I die?\' During her last moments, time seemed to be stretched out in order for her to realize her mistakes. \'I died for the one I loved, yet she didn\'t love me back…
\'Now that I think about it, did she ever express her love for me? No, never did…
\'Then why have I been so adamant on getting her to love me in the first place? Was I too naive? Was I just a stupid traitor like Michael said?
\'But… no, how can I say something like that now? I have loved her and I will still love her until my last breath, no matter how she treated me before...
\'Ah… emotions… what a drag… truly, they are dangerous...
\'Nonetheless, I have always wanted to see her smile for me, even once… Is that too much to ask for? Just one smile…\'
\'Ah… now that I get to reflect on my decisions I can finally realize that my life was really a failure...
\'Maybe I should have been more honest with her and just stated that I love her instead of pursuing her like a maniac and scaring her away instead...
\'Well, if given a second chance, I will make sure not to waste any time and just be honest with myself and others…
\'Farewell, disgusting world. Farewell, stupid me. And, farewell, dear Raphael… if we ever meet again, please smile for me, at least one single time…
\'...
\'...
\'...
\'Huh… this sure is taking too long, why do I need to be tortured like this? Haven\'t I suffered enough already, let me go!
\'Ugh…
\'Ah...
\'Let me go!\'
Realizing that she wasn\'t dying, Uriel fought a battle of intense pain and extreme suffering just to pry her eye open.
At first, her field of vision was like scattered pieces of shattered glass. But slowly, through her agonizing struggle, she started making sense of what she was seeing.
A beautiful snow-white face, that resembled a full moon in her distorted vision, was positioned on top of her while being surrounded with a plushy halo of crimson-purple strands.
One golden eye looked at her with anger as a small mouth seemed to be shouting into her face. Alas, she could barely hear her own thoughts, let alone someone else\'s shouts.
\'This girl seems familiar…\' Uriel was barely able to think through her pain.
After a while, she realized that a strange glow was being emitted from this girl in front of her. It seemed as though she was surrounded in mana… is she using a skill? Is she trying to save her?
For some reason, that didn\'t make Uriel feel any better, but instead much worse.
That beautiful face seemed to inexplicably irritate her. Those golden eyes that seemed to see through her very soul, she hated them…
\'Ah… It\'s you again…\' Uriel realized all of a sudden and tried to speak, but her voice didn\'t reach her mouth. \'Are you torturing me because of what I have done to you?
\'Is it not enough that you got Raphael? You want to humiliate me even more..?\' As she thought of that, sparkling tears left her eyes as moans of pain filled her head, but only a handful left her lips. \'Is it not enough that I\'ve also lost my left eye? We should be even now, right?\'
Now that she was able to take a look, she realized that the eye she previously injured was the girl\'s left eye… the same eye Michael took from her...
\'Is that what\'s called karma? Is the world playing jokes on me?
\'Please…
\'I understand my lesson. I will never do it again…
\'...
\'Please… I promise…
\'Kill me already…
\'I don\'t want this anymore…
\'Let the pain go away...
\'I can\'t take it…\'
The pain continued for what seemed like a whole eternity and some more. But eventually, salvation seemed to be in sight.
Slowly, the pain started numbing her senses, rendering her a lamp out of oil.
Not long after, even the feeling of having a body started getting weaker and weaker.
After another eternity of numbness and nothing but self questioning, she could finally close her eye and wish for a silent death.
But that didn\'t happen…
Suddenly, her eye was pried open by three soft fingers in a tender, yet forceful, touch. "Wake up! Don\'t you dare die now!"
Focusing her vision on the face covering her line of sight, she meant to shake her head, but even that didn\'t happen.
\'No… let me go… I\'m sorry… please… let me go…\'
Quickly, her inner thoughts were filled with her soft cries that were too heartbreaking if heard out loud.
"Don\'t die!" Raven\'s voice sounded once again, forcing her to focus on the outside world instead of her crying self. "Don\'t you love Maya, err Raphael? Don\'t you want to support her forever?
"If you don\'t go help her now she\'ll end up like you, how dare you accept such a result?
"Do you hear me, don\'t you dare die! Wake the f*ck up and get your sh*t together!"
Hearing her words, Uriel cried even harder as warm tears intermixed with her white blood and made a mess out of her scarred face and beige unkempt locks.
\'I can\'t…\'
"Do you hear me?"
\'I don\'t want to…\'
"Wake the f*ck up!"
\'Please, just let me go…\' With those last thoughts, fortunately for her, it seemed as though she had reached her limit.
Even though her eye was pried open, her vision was gradually dimming as she slowly started losing consciousness…
Not long after, even the feeling of being who she once was started getting weaker and weaker. Her sense of self was getting slowly lost, as if she was dissolving into the surroundings.
"Damn it, she\'s dying!" Raven cursed. "Kay, what do I do?"
