Gacha Sovereign Chapter 134 – My Most Precious Treasure

“Husband, do you remember when the first time we met?”

“Of course, in front of Alisia Forest.”

“Orcs attacked my group, and you came to help us. It felt like a destined encounter. I can’t forget about that day, the first time we met”

She continues, “We traveled back for four months because we took a bit detour, we arrived at a longer time. I sometimes followed you because I’m curious. I have brought you plenty of troubles back then, even when I’m in danger because of that. You didn’t leave me. Even when we are at a disadvantage… without knowing, I started to get close to you, we also quarreled many times back then.”

“Yes, you often come with a topic, when I gave you my opinion about it, and you didn’t like that opinio. You will always fight back with your own idea.”

“Hehe… I’m still immature back then.”

“But, for me, who was deemed to be useless by the society back then met a princess that didn’t care about that. I who was buried in the darkness. A stream of light slowly pulling me away. I got the chance to slowly mature. You continue pestering me in every opportunity, even though it was a bit annoying, It is still thanks to it, that I can become the way I am now.”

“When the first time, we suddenly become a roommate. It gave us the chance to get closer. When many provoked you. When you become the pride of the academy. When Sherry carried you back here with her tattered body.”

Alex smiled.

“Now, you have become the strongest in this world.”

“Only in this world” Alex added.

“It is really a long journey, isn’t it, Husband?”

“What are you saying, this is only the start.”

“Husband, can…I…request…a song…from…you?”

Alex’s eyes widened, he felt the life force inside her, he held his tears, “Sure.”

This time, he took out his piano from the system. There is one song that ringing in his heart and mind at this moment.

He started playing the piano. A melody that carrying his feeling filled the air. Even those people in the outside, suddenly heard a lovely tune coming from the room was perplexed.

(AN: The song is Ichiban no Takaramono (Yui final version), I used the English lyrics that make me loved it dearly. If you wanted to check the melody, I searched it here. youtube.com/watch?v=tm7Xf9818FM.)

Firia, who already knew about this, explained to them. They often asked him to play it on their honeymoon, they really loved it, even Sherry showed her confirmation.

They stop and listen to this lovely melody that filled the air. Even the maids and butlers, whether they are in the kitchen or in the garden, stop their work for a while.

The sound of the piano was very soothing.

The melody sounded really lovely too.

Finally, Alex’s voice slowly filled the air. His voice carries his emotion, his feeling, his memories. Back when they first met.

“If we see each other’s faces, we always fight.

“That’s a good memory too.

Alicia can’t help but smile. At this moment, unbeknownst to them, they can somehow know what each other thinking, feeling, emotion, and finally communicate with each other without saying anything.

“You taught me that; I’m not afraid anymore.

“No matter what kind of impairment I may have, I can grasp happiness. That’s why…

Alicia: ‘Husband, I’m sorry that I can’t be with you.’

Alex: ‘You will always be beside me, your presence, memory, your love, I will always feel it no matter I go. That’s why I will hope for the time where I can finally meet you once again, I will make this hope of mine become a reality’ Alex continue singing, he put all of his emotion in this. Let me sing this for you!

Alex sang in a high pitched tone.

“Even if I’m alone, I’ll go, even if it’s difficult.

“I’ll definitely bring the dream I had with you.

“I’m glad it was with you, and nobody else.

“But when I woke up in the morning, you weren’t there.

Tears are flowing on her eyes. Alex’s feeling reached deep in her heart, the song that dedicated to her, without knowing, tears also falling from Alex’s eyes.

“I always thought we could play forever.

“But I know that’s just what I believed

“I don’t regret that I was born anymore.

“Like the end of a festival, It’s lonely, but we have to move on.

Alicia tears were overflowing, her lips trembled. Anxiety filling her heart. Even if she had prepared for it, she…

Alicia: ‘Husband, even though I have prepared myself, I’m still afraid of this. I don’t know when I will wake up again. What if I didn’t wake up again? Will you leave me? What will happen later?’

Alex: ‘Don’t worry. I know your feeling. So, I will swear once again.’

Alex: ‘I love you, even as time goes by’

Alex: ‘I love you, even if the world changes’

Alex: ‘No one can replace you, even you know that’

Alex: ‘I love you forever and ever’

“I’ll go anywhere with the things that I learned here.

“I’ll show you that I can make the dream of happiness come true

“Even if I’m separated from you, no matter how far away we go

“I’ll be reborn in a new morning

Alex: ‘Don’t worry about it, Dear. You are always in my heart.’

Alex: ‘Even if my heart feels like it’s going to stop’

Alex: ‘My love for you is still the same’

“Even if I’m alone, I’ll go, even if want to die.

“I can hear your voice, saying I shouldn’t die

“Even if it’s difficult, even if I cry from loneliness

“I can feel warmth from deep inside my heart

At this moment, their hearts intertwined, as nothing happened in the world. Firia, Raymond, Marco, all of them, can’t help but cry at this moment. They feel Alex’s pain, they feel Alicia’s anxiety, but most importantly, they feel their boundless love for each other.

Alicia: ‘Husband’

Alicia: ‘Thank you, for loving me.’

Alicia: ‘Thank you, for making me laugh’

Alex: ‘The words I say not with my eyes, but with my heart

Alex: ‘I’ll love you forever, even if ten years pass by,

Alicia: ‘Even if I were to be born again,

Both: ‘I’ll only love you like this.’

Alex: ‘I will Protect this love that’ll become my strength.’

He used all of his energy to finish this song. The last and the most important thing that he wanted to convey.

“Going round-and-round and flowing, time is ever-changing

“I can’t remember what happened anymore, but

“If I try and close my eyes, I can hear someone’s laughing voice

“For some reason, now, that is my Most Precious Treasure

Alicia: ‘Husband. See you later’

Alex: ‘Yes. Wait for me’

His face full of tears, his heart full of pain, he used the last bit of his energy as he took the ‘Box of Time’ from his inventory. The box of time started glowing brightly as it showing him it is ready. The non-stop tears in his eyes. With his mouth stuttered, his body shivered. His mouth finally said,

“Box of Time. Seal!”
