Chapter 193: 193 – Apologies.

Arriving outside the house, a crowd had already started to gather to talk to me. It was a little difficult, but I still managed to talk to everyone and say hello.

They seemed to be very worried. Some of them even started to tell some stories about when I arrived in the village. They got desperate too.

Some of them dared to tell me that they thought I would die.

I don't know if you guys should tell me about this, but I don't care. But I can't say the same thing about my mom, she didn't seem to have heard about it before, she seems to be a little irritated.

Well, I can understand, people thought her son was dead.

'But theoretically, I wasn't practically already dead?' As I recall, before I woke up I was in that black cube, doesn't that mean I was dead? I need to ask the goddess about this someday.

But now was the time to take a shower. I left people outside and went straight to the bathroom. Lari wanted to go into the bathroom to bathe me, but I refused with all my strength.

I don't know what she wanted to do, I was afraid she would attack me or something.

I'm still not feeling very well, I think if she tried to rape me or something I wouldn't be able to stop it.

'I think I'm overreacting, I think it would be easy to stop her.'

But back to the subject of the shower, I took a shower pretty quick. But of course, I cleaned my body very well and also washed my hair as it was dirty with dirt and was stiff.

They should have bathed me while I slept. They could have at least wiped me off with a damp cloth.

When I got out of the shower I left a lot of water dirty. This seemed water mixed with earth. I feel sorry for my mother, her bed must be completely dirty by now.

"But now what do I do." After finishing showering, I went to my room and changed into a new outfit, now I felt completely refreshed.

'Despite feeling a little unwell.'

But I didn't want to lie down and sleep again, I wanted to do something.

I don't know if I'll help around the house, or maybe go outside to help my dad. On second thought, I don't know if it would be much help since he's taking care of the garden and I'm not very good at working with cultivation.

"I'd just get in the way." Thinking about it, I walked into the living room. There, I found Dala using a rag to wipe the floor.

"Oh, are you feeling better?" As soon as I approached, she stood up.

"Oh yeah... Thanks for asking."

"..."

As I wasn't used to talking to her, it was a quick conversation. Then she bent down and continued cleaning the floor.

I sat on the couch and looked around.

"Would you like something to drink?" Dala stopped cleaning and asked as she smiled.

"Oh no. Thanks."

"I understand."

"Hm..."

"What's it?"

"You started working for my mom, or something?"

"Ah... That's not it, fufu."

"..."

"Your mom was taking care of you, and Lari wasn't too keen on getting things done, so I offered to clean the house and also prepare food."

"Got it... But now that I've woken up you don't have to do this, do you?"

"I decided to just keep going for today. Anyway, I like doing it, I've worked with it almost my whole life."

"Haha..." I smiled awkwardly at Dala.

"Anyway, I would like to help as your mother has taken care of us here in the village, so I think I can continue working for her in the meantime."

"I think my mom didn't bring you here to work..."

"Of course I know that, but I would feel bad if I didn't reciprocate in some way. That was one of the reasons why I volunteered for this job."

"I understood. Don't try too hard."

"Fufufu, don't worry about me, I'm pretty strong."

" And your daughter?"

"Oh, don't worry about her, she's a strong girl too."

"I got it." I smiled at Dala, so the woman looked really happy. She got up and grabbed the bucket that was on the floor and took it with her.

"I'm going to clean your mom's room now, yell my name or Clachel's name if you need anything."

"Okay, I'll do it." Dala smiled and moved on, but before she left the room, I called her again.

"Do you know where my mother is?"

"After you went in the bathroom, she went outside to meet your dad. She seems to be taking care of something."

"And the others?"

"Lisandra is sleeping and Lari also seems to be resting at the moment. They didn't rest very well for days..."

"Ugh..."

"Don't worry, it wasn't your fault, they're way too stubborn."

"Right, thanks."

After that, I lay down on the couch for a while while I waited for my mother to come back. Maybe 20 minutes passed. I had my eyes closed but I wasn't sleeping, my vision was still a little weird.

I was seeing a little blurry.

"Looks like you're doing a lot better." But while I enjoyed the sofa upholstery and also the cool and pleasant weather, a very familiar voice appeared.

"Hello, Ciaphia. Are you less embarrassed now?"

"Shut up." She said with a red face. She looked away.

"Hehe." I gave her a mocking smile and I got up to talk to her better. Now the time has come that I should have a conversation with her about everything that happened.

And I should also apologize to me, something I haven't done with anyone yet.

####

"I should have stopped you from going out that day." The first thing Ciaphia said as she sat beside me was this. Well, I can understand her thinking, but she is quite wrong.

"Even if you tried to stop me, I would have gone to the forest." That's right, she couldn't stop me. I could have been treated like a naughty child or something like that, but I sure as hell would have gone.

"What if I had talked to your mother? I'm sure she would have been able to stop you."

"She could probably stop me... Haha."

"Then I should have talked to her. But I just took my sword and lent you... as well as let you go. The fault is mine... "

"What do you mean "The fault is mine"? You are not to blame for anything. I knew very well what I was doing, I practically forced you to give me your sword, I'm the only one to blame."

"I just can't stop thinking about how I could have stopped all this. If I had stopped you you would never have been hurt. You almost died, understand? Are you aware of how I felt?" Tears welled up in her eyes.

"Do you like me that much?"

"Idiot, this is no time for this kind of joke! Do you have any idea how I was feeling? I thought you were going to die. I couldn't sleep well, I couldn't do anything!"

"..."

"And you wake up, act as nothing happened... Do you have any idea how you were?! You were practically dead when you got here, your mother was desperate, your sister was in shock, she couldn't even speak."

"..."

"And Lari, she screamed, cried desperately. All of them were by your side all the time waiting for you to wake up, including me... Since I could have stopped it, I felt so bad when I looked at your mom, dad, Lari, or Lisandra..."

''..."

"Even though they said it wasn't my fault, I couldn't get it out of my head, you know? Hahaha, I felt so bad that I thought if I were in your place it would be better."

"Still, it wasn't your fault. You didn't know what would happen, you didn't want me to get hurt, you just helped me. That's why I don't want you to feel that way, okay?"

"..."

"My mom, Lisandra, my dad, Lari, they sure feel the same way. Nothing was your fault, it was all my fault, I was irresponsible and almost ended my own life, so don't let it upset you, right?"

I stared at Ciaphia's face for a while longer. She was thoughtful and sad, her expression was making me extremely upset with my choices.

"Okay fine. What matters is that you are fine now." Ciaphia said as she wiped her tears and started to smile.

"Yes, that's right…" I smiled too and then threw myself towards Ciaphia, giving her a tight hug. I felt her body tremble, but she didn't push me away and accepted it.

"I wanted to apologize to you. For making you worried, for making you suffer, and also for being an idiot, haha." I gave a small laugh. After that, I also heard a low chuckle from Ciaphia.

And she hugged me.
