Chapter 76 - Chapter 70 5 Years Here?

Five years? Staying here with Tara, one of the Apocalypses… of course they did not feel safe, and they still did not know Tara's true intentions.

Nacht: "Why do you want us to help you? Why are you the one trying to stop your siblings?"

Tara: "Enough with the chaos… and the suffering of innocent people."

Nacht: "And you think I'm going to believe that so easily? Tell me… have you destroyed kingdoms too?"

Tara: "Yes…"

Nacht: "Killed people?"

Tara: "Yes. A lot of them."

Nacht: "Hmmm…"

Diego: "And… why us?"

Tara: "Because you are the Five Cinder Tales. The Five Cinder Tales are five powerful fairy tale users. According to the legend, the Five Cinder Tales are the ones who either spread chaos… or bring peace."

Nacht: "I don't believe in legends. That's just how I am. I don't care about other people. The only thing I care about is this… what do I gain from it? Simple. What do I or my friends get out of this?"

Tara: "Hmmm… I'm sorry, but if you refuse to help me… I'll kill you."

Diego: "What!?"

Tara: "Because if you die, another five Cinder Tales will eventually appear… and then I can try again with them."

Nacht: "Hahhh."

Nacht walked over to a sword, picked it up, and sliced off his own head.

(Splach!)

Diego: "Woooww."

Tara: "Ugh."

Nacht: "I'm immortal, you idiot. I don't die from curses. My goal is to find the bitch who did this to me… They can kill me as many times as they want. There is a way to end me… but either way, it's almost impossible."

Tara: "Let me guess… to kill you, I would have to kill the witch inside of you."

Nacht: "Ughh."

Tara: "Hehehe… don't underestimate me. I know the two of you must die eventually, my dear… Again, I will kill you if you refuse to help me. I'm sorry… but it is necessary."

Diego: "Hahh… so we really don't have a choice. Great… as if it wasn't already enough that I didn't get the choice to be born, now this too… and what if we fail?"

Tara: "Then I will have to wait centuries again until the Five Cinder Tales appear once more."

Diego: "Wonderful."

Charlotte: "This just keeps getting better…"

Mona: "Yeah."

Tara walked over to Tina.

Tara: "Like I said, you do not have to stay here."

Tina: "They are my students. Thank you… but I'm staying."

Tara: "As you wish… First of all, I want to tell you that there are plenty of fruits and vegetables here… You can also go into the houses and take things."

Diego: "Is there meat?"

Tara: "No."

Diego: "Noodles?"

Tara: "No."

Kisa: "Cheese?"

Tara: "N-no…"

Mona: "Milk?"

Tara: "No…"

Nacht: "Then what are we supposed to eat? Are we supposed to survive on salad every day?"

Tara: "No… You can simply use the vegetables and fruits and… well, make meals with them. There are probably recipes somewhere… Though… how about this, Tina? Every now and then, you leave and bring back food."

Tina: "Can I do that?"

Tara: "Yes. Since you are not one of the Five Cinder Tales, you can leave this place repeatedly. Bring us food… although you may only leave once or twice a week."

Diego: "So much for leaving whenever you want."

Nacht: "This just keeps getting worse."

Mona: "And where are we supposed to sleep?"

Tara: "Oh… you need sleep?"

Nacht: "Nah, it's fine. We can stay awake… but then we die three or four days later. Not a big deal."

Charlotte: "Yeah, but where are we sleeping?"

Tara: "Hmmm… over there, in that house. There are rooms inside…"

(Krach!)

Nacht: "...(Sweating)... That thing could collapse at any second."

Diego: "Yeah… that settles it. These five years are going to be horrible. Please tell me this is a dream… please, somebody wake me up."

Rose: "Okay."

(Pick)

Diego: "Ow… aghgh… not there… down there…"

Nacht: "(Sweating)... You know, now that I think about it, there is one good thing here. Diego will have to control himself for five whole years, and Rose won't get pregnant."

Diego: "Hey!"

Rose: "Yeah, hey. I want children."

Diego: "Hey… I never said yes."

Rose: "What?… You don't want children with me?"

Diego: "I do! Just… not now… uh…"

Tara: "...Hahh. Go get some rest. Tomorrow… we continue."
