Chapter 30 - Fate is indeed cruel
Chapter 30 - Fate is indeed cruel
"Slash"
Taufik's katana does not make much sound, so when his katana goes through John's body, he doesn't sense it at all, until he hears some sounds like something is breaking.
"Craangg"
John and the rest then opened their eyes, They're all looking at Taufik.
"... Are you done?"
"Yeah, the curse is already gone, now you can live longer"
John then checks if the curse is gone, and he distributes his MANA from his core to his entire body, when he feels that the curse has really disappeared from his body, he is happy but his happiness isn't too long.
his expression changes from joy to sadness.
looking at John, the others are confused, and even Taufik it's no exception.
They'll think, that maybe Taufik has failed to cure the curse.
"... What's wrong father, did the treatment have failed?"
John looked at his daughter, still showing a sad expression.
"... The curse indeed has gone, the treatment has worked very well"
Hearing that, Taufik felt relief, he already thought his technique had failed.
he too was not so sure about his technique, because before Jhon the only person he treated with this technique was Anggun 'The Dai-Yak Princess'
(if she was still a princess (v:). )
So when he sees John's sad expression he though the technique has failed. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
But when John said the treatment was successful, he felt relief, relief that he was not disappointed the trust that Jenn have to him.
So Taufik asks John.
"So why are you sad, You should be happy, right?"
"I'm happy, but I just think about my wife,...my children's Mother, I don't think this curse can be lifted that easily, if I had known this earlier she wouldn't have to die...
John looked out the window, didn't want to show his tears to his children.
...fate is indeed cruel for someone, seeing that you just appeared now, I who deserve to die, still alive, and my wife who it's innocent have to die, she didn't do anything wrong, but she have to die just because she married me"
"..."
Taufik can't say anything.
but Jenn who heard what her father word, said.
"What are you saying father, no one deserves to die, don't blame yourself, if you want to blame, then blame the one who put the curse on Mother and you, now the curse is already gone, we have just found the culprit, then make him pay for what he does"
"Yes, you're right, I will regain my power, I'm not being called a genius for no reason, I will find whoever he is, I will find him then kill him with my own hands!!!"
-----
Taufik who heard their conversation, felt awkward for some reason, he knew about the spirit of the dead, and maybe he knew who's the culprit too.
But he braces himself to said it, if not, then it's only become a worse misunderstood.
"Ekhum...if that curse is really from the spirit of the dead, then maybe I know something"
Taufik said that, without looking at them.
"!!!" x4
Heard him say that, Then once again they'll look in Taufik's direction.
feeling all the eyes is on him, Taufik said.
"Hy, can you guys stop looking at me like that?!"
Jenn Shake her head.
"We can't help it dear, you always say something unexpected in unexpected situations too"
"Yeah whatever, just please stop it, please"
"Why though...
.....
...
.... (Just Jenn and Taufik argue with each other)
-----
John, who looked at Jenn and Taufik argued, smiled, remembering the time when he and his wife were young when he still used to bully her.
his wife was the smartest student in school at that time.
his wife always beat him when it came to subjects like theory or anything that didn't require MANA except PE, but other than that she was always number one.
The young John at that time, absolutely didn't like the fact that some random Girl who was not from The Seven Great Magician Family beat him, his ego didn't allow it.
So to vent his anger, john began to bullied her.
But his wife is a strong woman, she doesn't take the fact that her disabled core, would make her inferior to her peers, so she fought back and fought back, and it always ends up with John and his wife arguing.
They argued and argued, but one day he lost to her.
he can't beat her, he lost because he already fell in love with her.
So...he lost her.
------
"Hahahaha, you guys really in love, huh"
John Laughs a little, looking at them.
"I see...I'm happy that you are happy Jane, no matter who you end up with, even if he is young, old, ugly or handsome as long as you are happy, I...your mother will be happy too"
Jenn looked at her Father, wanting to cry again.
"... Father"
"Hahaha, it's okay, don't worry, let's just go Beck to the topics"
John then looks at Taufik.
"Taufik, Son, you said you know something, can you explain about it?"
'Son?'
Taufik who heard the word 'Son' from John, was a little bit surprised.
"Yes, Father, do you know Argus from Runes Family?"
'FATHER!!'.
Jenn, Jay, and Albert thought at the same time when they heard Taufik call John 'Father'.
"... I know him, bad memories, what about him, I heard He is already dead along with the Rune's downfall, only his son who is left behind to bear the Rune's name, Does he have anything to do with this?"
Jhon asks to remember the bad memory he has with Argus.
Taufik nods his head.
"Yeah, actually I think maybe he was the culprit, when I fought with him that day, he sum-"
"Wait!!, what? Have you fought with him? how, why?"
John was shocked when he heard that Taufik had been fighting with Argus before.
His shock is understandable, because from what John knows, Argus is in Master Realm Magician, just like him.
Right now Argus is stronger than John, but that is not because Argus is more genius than him. but because of the curse and his foolish act.
although John's core is still in Master Realm, the MANA in it not in Master Realm, maybe just in the low Intermediate Realm level.
------
Heard John's questions, Taufik just looked at Jenn.
John followed the direction where Taufik's eyes were, then saw his daughter Jenn.
"Jane, are what he says is true?"
Jenn is having a hard time answering her father's questions.
"Umm... That... that was true, actually, he was the one behind the Runes Collapse"
"!!!" x3
John, Jay, and Albert were surprised again.
"...Jenn, please don't say it like that, you make me sound like someone who will destroy anything whenever I like, I've already warned him once, but they still sent someone to kill me, it's not my fault, okay"
John looks at them, speechless at how can they talk about something like The Rune downfall like just some everyday event?
"Okay, okay I understand now, let's Go back to the topic again, so what with Argus again?"
John asked, trying to ignore what his daughter had said Before.
"Like I said, that day when I already cornering him, he summoned his wife who was in his control to summon the spirit of the dead, so maybe the one who put the curse on you is him"
"... What?! "
John doesn't know how to digest that information.
'Summon his wife to summon the spirit of the dead? what is that?'
John thought, but the word 'Argus wife' made him remember something.
"wait!, The Dai-Yak princess is still alive? I thought she was already dead"
"No, she still lives, she is just being controlled by Argus"
"..."
"so if what I said about Argus being the culprit is true, then you can't take any Revenge anymore, Argus is dead, and His son and wife are innocent, although his son is assh*le, he didn't know anything about the spirit of dead"
"..."
------
A few hours later.
Right now, Jenn and Taufik are already back at their home, they leave because John needs some rest after Taufik lifted his curse.
John's body is still weak, and maybe he needs to calm down his heart after what he hears from Taufik, so they leave The Robins Mansion.
"Jenn, why don't stay with your father?"
Taufik asks looking at Jenn, who is beside him.
"It's okay, knowing that he is already healthy and changed it's enough"
"But it is really okay?"
"Hmm, don't worry"
Seeing her is okay, Taufik didn't ask her anymore, because he remembered that today he still had not claimed his daily login rewerd.
'System, LOGIN!!'
