Complexities
CHAPTER I CHAPTER 10.2: Critical Girl Part 2
Charle and Amane face the worst situation of their lives, against a fate they cannot fight.
Hana Vermillia was cut in half, and half of her body disappeared somewhere.
The elder siding with Hana was not strong enough to resist Johansson's plotters and the abnormal people siding with her.
They are all in critical condition…
**
When approaching death, humans will remember the flashbacks of his life like watching a movie being played.
'Amane recalls the flashbacks of his life…'
“From today you become part of the servant of the Tsukiyama Koharu family, your first task is to clean this library.”
A woman in a typical suit like a family servant spoke to Amane at that time, Amane appeared to be wearing the same clothes as the woman's.
Amane is in a flashback to his life 5 years ago, when he was adopted by the Koharu family after waking up from a long coma.
“Encyclopedia of plants.”Amane finds a book with a thick page that has a picture of a colorful plant on its front cover.
[‘Anthurium scherzerianum’
‘This species is found in Costa Rica at altitudes of 1,300 to 2,100 m. It occurs in the montane rainforests on the Atlantic slopes of the Cordillera Central and Cordillera de Talamanca.
It is a perennial species and often grows to form clumps. It can grow on trees (as an epiphyte) or in soil (terrestrial).
Anthurium scherzerianum has the characteristic of an oblong to elliptical part of the flower, the leaves are rough with a length of up to 25 cm and a width of 8 cm.
Its stems cut in water can last up to eight weeks.’]
Amane read carefully the Encyclopedia and found one plant that caught his attention, the Anthurium scherzerianum plant commonly known as the Flamingo Lily flower.
“This plant is so amazing, I want to see it someday.”think Amane after knowing the uniqueness of the plant.
“Ah... I forgot to clean.”ia put the Encyclopedia of the plant and rearrange it with other books and resume cleaning activities.
***FLASHBACK END***
**
“I remember now..”think Amane who has recalled the flashbacks of his life. His gaze began to dim, as did Charle. They are at the end of death.
“Flamingo Lily is a plant I've always wanted to see.”ia still admires that plant to this day.
Amane turned his gaze to the Flamingo Lily plant created by GIVEN: RED FLOWER owned by Hana Vermillia before, the plant changed shape to be smaller due to injuries suffered by Hana. Maybe his height is only about 7cm.
“The plant can survive even though the stem has been cut and left for 8 weeks.”ucap Amane slowly.
“Charle, we win.”Amane thrust his thumb at Charle with the remnants of consciousness he had.
Hana Vermillia Reawakened, her body that had been cut into 2 regenerated like the nature of the Flamingo Lily flower that can be bred by cutting the stem.
“GIVEN:RED FLOWER.”ucap Hana who has just regenerated half of her body.
The previously shrunken Flamingo Lily flower grew back in a giant version as before, this time 11 meters tall.
The awakening of Hana and Flamingo Lily successfully neutralizes the abilities of GIVEN: HOW I MEET YOUR MOTHER belonging to the lazy woman who attacked Charle, Sheele, and Amane earlier. The effects of the given by the woman have now been completely lost due to the ability to neutralize the property of the Flamingo Lily.
“Uhuk...Uhuk...”Charle and Amane are now able to breathe normally, but Sheele is still unconscious.
Johansson, apparently unhappy with Hana's resurrection, again called the woman who spoke in a lazy tone to finish her business, but she refused and preferred to take a nap, he was too lazy to continue the fight.
“The basis is useless..”gumam Johansson after the woman ignored her orders.
“You, your body.”ucap the elder while trying to hold Hana's body that looks staggering. Half his body that had just regenerated seemed unable to fully adjust to Hana's state.
“The nature of the Flamingo Lily flower merges with itself, the stem that has just grown requires water and sunlight to be able to fully grow.”think the elder after seeing the state of Hana.
The elder swept Hana's frail body towards Amane and Charle, Hana even having difficulty walking on the newly grown legs half of her body.
“We must go..”please ask the elder on Amane and Charle.
“Flamingo Lily will not last longer when viewed from the state of this child, it is only a matter of time until the giant plant disappears.”
“As for the giant plant to stand and neutralize the enemy's GIVEN, we must find a way out.”next to Amane and Charle, the elder appears to be wary of Hana's extremely weak state, he decided to take them all back from the fight.
“Charle, can you find a way out with SEEK capabilities?”ask Amane.
“Can or not, I will try it.”Charle begins to concentrate on his index finger, but from a distance Johansson seems to have realized Hana's condition is not too good, he decided to attack again.
“Like that yes...”ucap Johansson while grinning.
“GIVEN: BEHIND THE SCENE, my true ability is not to look at one's past, this ability is designed to know any kind of plans made by someone.”
"About the relationship between the girl named Amane and Tsukiyama Koharu, I've seen it all."
“You know Johan? All this time I liked you, your devil-like smile, I loved it. But I was too lazy to say it, so I kept it to myself, but I was also lazy to keep it so I said it now.”
The mysterious woman who always speaks in a lazy tone interrupts Johansson's thinking in a very typical lazy manner, she does so while lying down and watching from a distance.
“I'm not interested in a useless woman like you.”balas Johansson on the lazy-pitched woman.
“I'm too lazy to say it in person, I think with your GIVEN ability, you've listened enough to me from here. I was lazy to discuss it, then continue as you like.”the mysterious woman with a lazy tone closed the speakerann and continued her nap, Johansson who heard the remark with her GIVEN ability was upset half to death.
“Meet...”ucap Charle on Amane and the elder.
“I managed to find a way out of this island!”charle opened a dimensional hole connecting the mirage island with the outside world using his SEEK abilities.
From a distance the form of the giant Flamingo Lily appears to shrink again, this happens due to Hana who can not maintain consciousness any longer. Hana almost fainted, she was no longer even able to stand on her legs, her body was now unable to move.
“Preparation finished, this dimensional hole is too small for everything at once, we have to enter alternately.”Charle warns Amane and the Elder, apparently trying to maintain the dimensional hole as strong as his strength.
“The flower of Flamingo Lily has shrunk, the ability to neutralize the opponent's GIVEN has dimmed, this island suppresses my GIVEN ability.” thought Charle while continuing to try to maintain the dimensional hole he created.
“Sister Amane, go first.”request Charle.
“Please take Sheele out of here.”sheet on Amane.
“Go first!”pinta the elder on Amane.
“If this child loses consciousness then there is no way home, we will all die in this place!”shouted the elder, he forced Amane to comply with Charle's request.
“Please hold on for a little while longer..”sang Elder smacked Hana's cheek softly to keep her consciousness awake, Flamingo Lily's flowers shrunk, Charle was getting depressed with the ability of Lavia's GIVEN.
“Go!”charle shouted, Amane agreed and quickly swept Sheele's body through the dimensional hole.
“You also go, take this child with you.”sang elder led Hana's weak body closer to Charle.
“Grandfather should also go.”balas Charle.
“Son, I am an elder, I will not go and leave my family members here.”the elder replied to Charle, he patted Charle's hair softly with a smile.
“After everything they've done, why do you still think of them as part of the family?”
“They killed everyone, they killed my Father and Mother!”charle shouted at the elder, he cried and brushed the elder's hand off his head.
The elder brought his face closer to Charle's ear, he whispered. “The girl over there, she doesn't want to do any of this, she's not someone to blame."
Charle momentarily fell silent after hearing the elder's words, the elder intended to save Lavia who was in Johansson's control and did not want Charle to blame everything on Lavia.
“Now that you are all of the same age, I hope that after all this is over you will be good friends and continue this family line.”sang elders back pat Charle's hair softly, after all this time, he sent her the last message.
“GIVEN: MAIDEN SWORD.”from a distance, Johansson's side again launched an attack with the presence of thousands of floating swords that shot directly towards Charle and the elder.
The thousands of swords were reduced in number by half after entering the range of the Flamingo Lily, the Flamingo Lily was still able to neutralize half of its effects, but that darting sword was still enough to finish off Charle and the elder.
“GIVEN:HIDE!”sheele's head appears from inside the dimensional hole. He used HIDE's ability to eliminate the sword. His breathing sounded so fast, from behind the dimensional hole Amane seemed to hold half of Sheele's body so that she did not fall.
“There's no time, we have to go!”amane shouted from behind the dimensional hole.
Charle takes Hana and leads her on her way to the dimensional hole, the elder deciding not to come with them as he feels responsible for saving Lavia from Johansson and the others.
Charle, Sheele, Amane and Hana make it back to the real world thanks to Charle's SEEK abilities. They left the mirage island with mixed feelings and a wounded mind. Each – of them bore such a heavy burden.
Charle, Sheele, and Hana lose both their parents, Amane loses someone who saved his life, and the elder loses his way back.
'Everyone has their wounds and their losses.'
**
A few months after the incident, Amane travels to Japan to meet the man Tsukiyama Koharu entrusted to him, Akira Hikasa.
Charle and Sheele waited for Hana to recover from her regeneration, at least they took 8 weeks like the time it took for the Flamingo Lily to grow her new shoots. Hana needs water and sunlight like a plant, so Charle and Sheele are believed to take care of her until she recovers completely.
Arriving in Japan, Amane finds the school where the boy named Akira Hikasa is located, he enrolls there as a new student with the aim to protect the boy according to Tsukiyama Koharu's wishes.
8 weeks on, Hana has now fully recovered thanks to the routine care provided by Charle and Sheele.
Hana, Charle, and Sheele decide to follow Amane by traveling from Rome, Italy to Japan as they fear a further attack from the Johansson gang.
The news of the elder was still confused, he was never heard from again after the incident, as well as Lavia and Johansson and their abnormal plot.
The elder had entrusted everything to the new wind that would bring about change.
They're…
Amane, Charle, Sheele, Hana and Koharu.
