Chapter 1231: A Broken Heart

Rose ran away from the hall once she heard the truth, too heartbroken to face reality. Having thought and imagined having a family through all her young life made her feel even worse upon learning that she could have had everything she ever wanted if it wasn't for this conflict, if it wasn't for the Deep One, and everything he provoked. If it wasn't for… all these senseless battles.

"This damn thing… It's really a curse…" She continued sobbing in the corner of a hall.

"Rose!" Coral came for her, running as fast as he could.

"Coral…?" Rose muttered, glancing back at him. "Leave me alone…"

"B-But Rose, how can you just run away from there?! That person is your ancestor, she could help us with this whole ordeal…" Coral sighed. "C-Come on, you don't have to sob in here…"

"I said to leave me alone! I don't want to be with anybody… I am tired… I am tired of all of this!" Rose began to cry, as her Stigma started to shine with a bright pink, color.

FLAAAASH!

A massive sphere of mirages and illusions, resembling clouds made of pink color imbued with countless passing and incomprehensible images appeared around the girl, distorting constantly.

"R-Rose? ROSE! Don't… don't close yourself like this… Let's talk, okay?" Coral cried.

"Rose!" Benladra arrived at the scene as well, flapping her wings to reach here quickly.

"Rose…" Kate accompanied her big sister as well, looking just as worried as Benladra.

"Ah, you two…" Coral sighed. "S-She's… just closing herself there, she doesn't want to come out. She doesn't want to… talk."

"Rose…" Benladra sighed. "I know its hard, but we are here for you too… A-And papa and everyone!"

"Nn! Come out, let's talk. We're frens." Kate nodded.

Rose kept hearing the children's words, who barely reached towards her as she submerged herself in her own pain and despair. Knowing that she could have lived like the princess of the queendom and even enjoy all of its luxuries… and even the love of a family at that made her realize how truly unlucky her life has been.

Despite being so young, her mind was rapidly deteriorating more and more as she thought about it. And her Stigma, which responded to her own emotions, seemed unstable as well.

"I could have had warm food every day… I could have had a comfy bed… I could have had a mom and a dad that loved me…" She continued crying. "And what did I get? Nothing… I lived in the streets, I ate disgusting things to survive… Life's just… suffering."

"Y-You can't just say that, Rose!" Coral said. "W-What about me? What about everyone in the orphanage? Everyone loves you there… a-aren't we your family?"

"Rose, papa says you're family too…" Benladra said.

"Nn! We're family." Kate agreed.

However, Rose's mind seemed to be growing more and more clouded, incapable of seeing through the honest emotions of her friends.

"You're not my family…" She muttered cruelly. "Coral, you're just a sickly boy that kept sticking with me because I feed you once…"

"Eh? H-How can you be so cruel…" Coral sighed, brokenhearted.

"And Benladra and Kate… you're not my friends! I've only meet you for like a week! You came and brought so much yet… It only made me more and more jealous of your lives… Every time I see your faces, I get angry…" Rose continued crying. "Because it makes me wish I were you two…"

"R-Rose…" Benladra muttered.

"Umm…" Kate didn't knew what to say.

A black aura slowly began emerging around the Mirage Bubble she created, as Rose continued saying these hurtful words, her pink aura turned completely black, and even red energy started flowing across.

"Yes…" A voice whispered to her. "That's right, my child."

"Eh?" Rose felt confused, but the voice continued speaking.

"You've lived a fake life. You were negated of everything you deserved!" It said.

"I… I did…" Rose's pink eyes slowly started to change color, growing redder…

"And these damned people… they dare tell you what's good for you? Just who are they to say that?! Do they even know you?! Do they even know the truth within your heart?!" The voice said.

"They don't… know a single thing…" Rose grew angrier as tears flowed from her eyes.

"That's right. Nobody knows your pain, they're all selfish people that think that what you're going through is just a little tantrum! They don't know how much you've suffered!" The voice continued feeding her a distortion of what was truly happening.

"Yeah… They don't know how much I've gone through… They have had it so easy… They can't possibly… get in my shoes." She continued crying.

FLAAASH!

The darkness became deeper, as Coral, Benladra, and Kate noticed the change, stepping back. The presence of something completely malign and evil started to emerge from within Rose's Stigma… and her Heart.

"Rose?! W-What's going on?!" Coral panicked.

"Rose! She's… darkness is wrapping around her… Evil darkness!" Benladra said, stepping forward to protect Coral and Kate from the enormous shockwave of darkness coming from Rose's heart.

"Then why don't you teach them… The pain you've gone through! Why don't you show them… Your suffering?!" Laughed the voice, whispering to Rose's heart.

A deep darkness started to corrupt her innocent heart, consuming her emotions and her mind, and turning her powers… into something else.

"I'll show you all… What I've gone through! So you'll understand how horrible I feel…"

FLUOOOOSH!

Rose's bubble shapeshifted, transforming into a monstrous creature resembling a giant Piranha Fish made of darkness, overflowing with pure malice, and with red-shot eyes and sharp fangs.

"GRYYYYAAAAARRRRRR!!!"

The enormous fish-like monster roared furiously, spreading a deadly and evil aura everywhere, sealing the abandoned hall's gates for the children to not escape.

SPLAAAASH!

Suddenly, a water made of miasma and mirages emerged around, generating a powerful domain.

"W-What the heck?! ROSEEEEE!" Coral panicked, as he was being carried by Benladra.

"That's… not Rose! Something's controlling her!" Benladra said.

"Baddie!" Kate said.

"GRAAAAAAAARRRGGH!"

Without even waiting any second, the creature leaped towards the children, opening its monstrous jaws!

CLAAAAASH!
