Chapter 59
Chapter 59
Gloomy people are easy to misunderstand if you socially talk to them .
Akuya Shinji is running away .
Thinking that Yato had cast a curse on him, he kept running in fear .
(Who’s that guy...)
It was a spell that made him believe that he will die if he approached Kamaishi .
Being under that spell, Akuya wanted to get away from Kamaishi as soon as possible .
Pushing away everyone on his path, he kept on running until he started sweating in an unusual way .
When he finally ran out of breath, he hide inside a small alley and leaned on a wall to take back his composure .
(I should be alright now . )
Adjusting his breath, Akuya’s loath towards Yato started sprouting in his heart .
(Just why did things turn out like this...!!)
Biting his lips, he punched the wall behind him for a few times .
Meeting Kamaishi at that time was nothing more than a coincidence .
He moved to this city with his parents only recently, so it was the first time he saw her in this place .
At that moment, Akuya felt extremely glad to the point where he wanted to brag about his fate .
That’s because he met his crush from middle school .
Akuya was originally a timid person .
No matter how much he tried, his classmates often mocked him for his gloomy looks .
Due to that, he never had someone he could call a friend and spent most of his time alone .
But that was still better than getting bullied .
Akuya believed that his situation was still not bad, until he met her .
“Um, you dropped this . ”
With a smiling face, Kamaishi gave back Akuya the handkerchief he dropped on his way .
Possibly at that time, all that he saw in Kamaishi was a gorgeous and divine light .
He never thought that there was someone who would talk to him gently like that .
Only with that small incident, everything had started for him .

Akuya started changing from that day on .
He wanted to become acquaintances with Kamaishi .
He wanted to be closer to her .
Making use of various opportunities, Akuya approached Kamaishi .
His feelings towards her became stronger day after the other .
However, one day, Kamaishi had suddenly moved and Akuya fell into the depths of despair .
(Right when I finally met her again!!)
Miraculously, he was able to meet her once again today .
He never felt this happy in his entire life .
He went directly to talk with her, but that hindrance didn’t let him do so .
(Because of him, Sayaka-chan is...!!)
Akuya’s expression changed to that of utmost loath .
Because of Yato, his Sayaka changed into a different person .
“I told you no! Stop following me!!”
Just by recalling what she said, he almost lost his reason .
He realized that he was rejected .
But he couldn’t accept that truth .
(It’s surely because of him!! He made her say those words . )
He thought that Yato forced Kamaishi to reject him beforehand .
And eventually, his thoughts turned into strong beliefs and his fear from Yato was overwhelmed by hatred .
“If only... only he wasn’t there . ”
Akuya muttered alone and remained developing his loath towards Yato .
“Phew... I was about to die there . ”
Gemra who escaped from Lina showed up from the other side of the alley .
Despite the hot weather, he was still wearing that black suit and antic mask which was enough for him to make Akuya notice his existence .
(who’s this guy?)
Forgetting his hate towards Yato for a moment, Akuya gazed at Germa who looked like a weirdo and then their eyes met .
“Oh my, you are...”
Instantly after their eyes met, Germa felt something odd coming from Akuya and decided to talk to him .
“I feel a good amount of hatred emanating from you . With such an amount, you could be an appropriate resting vessel for me . ”
Akuya didn’t understand what was Germa talking about .
But still, he wondered .
Why could he hear Germa’s words clearly resonating in his mind?
Not saying anything back, Germa continued .
“You, do you have a wish?”
“A wish?”
“I feel that your hatred is deriving from your desires . Is there something you want for yourself? Try telling me . ”
“No, what are you talking-”
“What would you do if I tell that I can grant that wish of yours?”
Akuya couldn’t let Germa’s last line slip away .
Usually, what Germa was saying should seem like nonsense, but at that time, Akuya didn’t feel that he was lying .
Akuya made his resolve and decided to talk about his wish, however, he recalled something before doing so .
He’s under a curse .
Even if his wish was to be granted, he will still die if he approached Kamaishi, thus, there was no meaning in his wish .
Recognizing that fact, Akuya stayed quiet again, though suddenly, Germa raised his voice seeming to have noticed something else .
“Hm? It seems you’re under the effect of some curse . Let’s see, I will dispel it for you . ”
Germa approached and pushed his index finger against Akuya’s forehead .
Following that move, Akuya shivered and felt almost as if he was struck by lightning .
“How are you feeling now?”
Listening to Germa’s question, he checked his body .
And then he started wondering why he believed Yato .
There’s no why a curse could exist .
Making sure that nothing ran in his body, he pondered for a few seconds and then talked to Germa .
“About the wish...”
“You can tell me what you want . ”
Hearing the mysterious words of Germa who seemed as if he was smiling under that mask, Akuya casted his eyes down, pondered for a while then looked back at Germa .
“I want Sayaka-chan!!”
“Is that all?”
“I want to... I want to kill the guy who changed Sayaka-chan with my own hands!!”
Pressed by Germa, he spat out all of his loath towards Yato .
Watching Akuya’s expressions brimming of hatred and desires, Germa’s started getting excited then spread his arms and said .
“Well then, let us grant your wish!”
Right when he spread his arms, Germa’s body suddenly turned into black smoke .
When he completely transformed into smoke, he wrapped up Akuya’s entire body .
“Uu...... uu...... Aah...”
Surrounded by that smoke, Akuya held his head while groaning and leaned on the wall .
He felt almost as if something was getting into his body . His head felt like it was getting consumed by something . It was an ominous feeling far away from that of pain .
“Aa... aaa......”
But abruptly, Akuya stopped groaning and lowered his arms .
“Fufufu, Haa-haha!! Success!!”
Germa’s voice went out from Akuya’s mouth .
His body that has been possessed started emanating a sinister aura and his gloomy face mixed up with an odd smile, making him look even more unapproachable .
“But still, as expected from this body . I feel I’m already used to it . At this rate, I think I can recover all my powers as well . ”
Checking all over Akuya’s body, Germa talked in a good mood .
“For now, let’s grant his wish as a way to get more accustomed to this vessel . I’m a tolerant god, after all . ”
With that, Germa disappeared in the gloomy side of the alley .
That was the moment that should have never existed . The moment when Akuya and Germa met each other .

Bonus
Licking each other’s wounds .
“How was your childhood like, Kamiya-kun?”
“Well, I used to play with kids my age at that time . ”
“As I thought . ”
“Yeah, but I don’t think they’d remember me if they happened to meet me again . ”
“Kamiya-kun, I will remember you no matter what . ”
“Thank you, Kamaishi-san . ”
Such a nice way to comfort each other .
TL note: so licking each other’s wounds means comforting each other about sorrowful things that happened to both parties, exactly like what Kamaishi and Yato were doing .
