Eternal Melody-Chapter 962 My Beautiful Monster Part 63

SUMIRE

Sumire blinks. "But, I thought my husband told everyone to-" She paused, seeing Renna's hardened gaze.

"Are you aware of his order? You do not suspect why he is doing that?" Renna asked.

If anyone else heard Renna's words, they would certainly accuse her for treason. However, Sumire understood that the girl was only concerned about her.

Sumire bit her bottom lip. "I do find it strange." She admitted. "But, it's not like I don't understand. Lucifer seems to be very uneasy when it comes to other guys taking me, and my safety. I did come here after having my heart ripped out of my chest. So his overprotectiveness makes sense."

"It's true that if it weren't for the Lord's protective measures you'd find yourself surrounded by enemies." Renna nodded. "But my lady, surely you know that you're stronger than the Lord?"

"I do know."

During their first few sparring sessions, she noticed that she managed to push him back. At first she thought Lucifer was simply holding back for her sake, but it didn't take her long to realize that wasn't the case. If she is stronger than him, it seems silly to be hiding behind his back while he protects her from these dangers.

"But you allow him to-"

Sumire exhales deeply. "I know he means well. Whatever he is hiding from me, hurts him too. He treats me so well, and looks at me with those loving eyes. But occasionally I would see the guilt in his eyes."

"If it's you my Lady, I am sure you will make the right decision." Renna trails off. "The others are having a training exercise again this evening, would you like to join us?"

Sumire's eyes lit up. "Are we going to be using weapons?"

"Yes, wooden ones. But weapons regardless."

"I will definitely be there." Sumire trails off. "Why do you hide your singing Renna-chan?"

"I am sure you know this already. But, I was hired not only as your ladies maid but as your bodyguard too. The reason for that is because I was raised in a family of assassins." Renna explained.

Sumire blinks startled at those words. She did think Renna-chan was strong, and she must have a background story. But, she didn't think it was like this.

"I apologize, does that frighten you?" Renna asked.

"No.But, a family of assassins. It's not too hard to guess that you didn't have a loving childhood."

Renna nodded. "That's right. I was trained to be an assassin from the very moment I could walk. To be an emotionless tool that formed no attachments to anyone."

Sumire paused. So, that's why. She always has that expressionless expression. The other members of Lucifer's guard often tease Renna about it, but 'I always thought it was weird.'

"Is that the life you want?"

Renna paused but shook her head. "No, it isn't. But it wasn't until recently when I started to gain some form of emotion. I was abroad, doing a job for my master to protect a certain group. That group consisted of five male idols with completely different personalities. But after I saw them on stage, something stirred my heart. Emotions I thought I buried away."

"Your making me curious now. Are they that good?" Sumire turns to the player. "Are there songs in here too? I'd like to listen."

Renna nodded. "They are the ones I marked, so you'll be able to find them easily."

So Renna-chan was moved by this groups songs. Thump. Thump/ That sounds familiar. Was the past her also moved so strongly by music? She certainly likes it a lot. But, was she as passionate as Renna-chan?

________________

After Renna leaves, she turns her attention to the small device. Renna showed her how to use it and it didn't take long before she got it working. She taped the first song titled 'who I am.'

I've been a rolling stone all my life

Flying all alone, flying blind

I've seen it all, I've been around

I've been lost and I've been found

But who I am with you is who I really wanna be

You're so good for me

And when I'm holdin' you, it feels like I've got the world in my hands

Yeah, a better man is who I am with you

I've got a ways to go on this ride

But I got a hand to hold that fits just right

You make me laugh, you make me high,

You make me wanna hold on tight

'Cause who I am with you is who I really wanna be

You're so good for me

And when I'm holdin' you, it feels like I've got the world in my hands

Yeah, a better man is who I am with you

Who I am with you." A male voice sang.

If she wasn't crying before then she was now. Huh? H-how come?

She tries to search for a name on the device but there was nothing but song titles. Sumire takes her phone out but hesitates to type it into the search bar. If-if this comes up as blocked, then it would mean Lucifer is hiding this person from her. She doesn't want that to be the case.

Just hearing this person's voice makes her cry. Her heart is crying out. 'I want to see him, I want him to hold me.'

'Sumire, Sumire.'

Sumire places her hand on her head, as she felt a throbbing sensation. She hears a voice calling her name repeatedly and the more she listened, the more it overlaps with the voice from the song.

'Little bird, you've always been a smart one. When you find yourself in an impossible situation. I have no doubt that you will work things out quickly. That quick thinking may save your life one day.'

She felt incredibly weak, every single time she regains a memory. This always happens to her. During those times she would lay down as quickly as possible and grab the sleeping pills on her nightstand to knock herself out. But, this time she reaches over and grabs the player again.

It's the same.

It's the same voice.

Her heart beat increased. 'Yi is alive in this life time. I already suspected he wasn't Lucifer, but this is proof.' If he is alive in this life, then did their paths cross at some point? Is this why she is reacting like this just listening to him sing? If just hearing his voice makes her cry. What kind of relationship did they have?
