Eternal Melody

Chapter 274 - Do They Deserve To Live?



Sumire deeply sighed. "It is difficult; of course, I am aware of that. It\'s fortunate that they don\'t know about Huan\'s existence yet; when they do, I\'m afraid it\'ll cause more of a fuss."

When they find out about Huan, she wonders what sort of change will occur.

"So you say, but if they go after your daughter, you\'ll have the excuse to attack them."

"Your wrong Kuga, I don\'t need an excuse. This isn\'t the first place I\'ve gone to threaten them. By now, they should all be receiving it. \'Don\'t lay a hand on or complain to Terashima Yuhi. \'I went around to so many people threatening them with these words. After all, there are too many huge idiots out there, who won\'t understand that I am outraged unless I say so."

There are far too many people who are deceived by her appearance. They think just because she looks beautiful, she has no brains or the ability to think for herself.

Back when she first joined the underworld society, she was emotionless to everything. Maybe it\'s because of her indifferent behavior that others thought they could take advantage of her.

"How frightening. But indeed, that is what makes you interesting." Kuga reaches over and cups her cheek. "A pure hanyou Princess like you that has been raised in complete isolation since you were younger, and yet you paved your path from that point onwards." His fingers brush across the nape of her neck, and she shudders.

"Tell me, you who have been exposed to the light now is fighting for the light or darkness? Which one do you prefer?"

"Neither. I shall fight for both. For the light and darkness to coexist is something that will still take a long time. I am afraid that even when this current situation ends, this will go on for another twenty years."

Kuga chuckled. "Well, maybe you can ask for assistance from that man you came with."

"You saw him?"

"I was surprised to see you with him. Is that not Nagawa Sano?"

"You know him?"

Kuga nodded. "Everybody knows him. He is acting like a little lap dog for those leaders not under the Holy Knights sphere of protection."

\'A dog, huh.\' It\'s hard to use that word when it comes to him. After all this entire time she knew him, Sano is the one who used others. But at the same time, it is not hard to imagine

"Sumire-sama, there is a man who said he is your companion. Should we let him in?" One of the butlers approached her.

Ah, just in time. Did he finally calm down? She turned to Kuga, who nodded.

"Well, I am satisfied for now. Although it is a shame we could not do anything else, this is fine for now.."

"If I did such a thing, Yuhi would be angry."

Kuga chuckled and hurriedly left. Right as his footsteps faded, she heard the sound of somebody rushing over. Sumire looked around and spotted a frantic looking Sano.

Sano deeply sighed as he took a seat beside her. "The least you could do is answer your phone."

Sumire blinked, puzzled at his words.

"I tried to contact you first. I figured just entering alone would be dangerous; besides that, I wanted to make sure you were safe."

So he was worried about her?

She watched as Sano ordered a drink. \'His complexion looks pale.\' Sweat clung to his face.

"This place reeks of blood."

"Ah." Sumire nodded. "I should have warned you."

"It\'s fine, but did you finish warning them?"

"Mmm, for now, anyway." Sumire knew that her warnings would only have a temporary effect.

In the long run, they will continue and use more force than before. When that time comes, she will make sure to protect Yuhi.

"Then drink with me for s bit."

"Oh."

Sano ordered a few more drinks, and soon, several bottles were placed in front of them. "I have a few things to ask of you."

"To ask me?"

"Regarding Tsueno Mamoru. Back then, you met him often, didn\'t you?"

Sumire deeply sighed when she heard his question. For a moment, she thought he was going to ask her a serious question. But it seems like this part of him won\'t change, his desire to possess her.

Sano sighed. "Look, I have no bad intentions asking this. It\'s just after that time he saved you, and he showed up in front of me several times too."

Huh? Ru met with Sano?

"From the look on your face, it seems that you did not know anything about it."

This is the first hearing of this. She knew that Ru had a bad habit of randomly appearing before others and giving them some life lesson advice. But after his death, Sumire learned that he only approached people he knew would help her in the future.

The conversations that flow afterward do not make sense to her, and she doesn\'t know how she responded. Many people speak to her so easily and openly, yet she can see it, the fear. They are all afraid, and they are all trying to get on her good side to escape the fear.

Just like that person told her, this world is more corrupted than the plain elite side.

Hanyou elites maybe even more corrupt than the humans who think nothing of money.

The people here do not care about their companions\' deaths, let alone saving anyone who is in need of help. Do these people truly deserve to live?

\'Why are you hesitating? Isn\'t it obvious what you want to do? Do you need me to take charge, is the light side consuming you too much, Sumire? You are the Queen.\' In the back of her mind, she can hear a voice. A voice is telling her not to hesitate and to end it all. But if she were to do that, then things will end up as they did before.
