My Curse? A Different Yandere in Every Reincarnation
Chapter 63: I forgive you

Chapter 63: I forgive you

Aiden really went all out to give me a "perfect" life in these last few days. We’ve been to all sorts of places in the past 29 days, and I must say I had a great time these were the best days I’ve had since I was cursed with this terrible affliction.

He took me to the opera and the theater... so we could criticize the performances of others while laughing at things, we talked a lot about the acting of various people while laughing and finding funny flaws.

Or we’d laugh at the nonsensical stories that popped up in the theater, it was fun to do that with him.

The next day he took me to a fancy restaurant and we started ordering all sorts of things. I tried a little bit of everything, and since there was a gigantic amount of delicious food left over, Aiden said we should donate all that food.

And we did just that, as well as buying more to donate we have so much money that we can’t possibly spend it all in the few days I have left.

Of course, I also discovered that Aiden isn’t the only one taking care of me; apparently the elite knights of the kingdom were following us the whole time, to all the places we went.

It seems my father always knew about everything but let it slide to see me happy, which makes him a much cooler dad than the one I remember from my memories.

In addition to the theater, opera, and restaurants, Aiden took me to see interesting historical tourist attractions, explaining the history to me in an entertaining way, making little jokes and observations.

He also took me to a boring party and made it fun with some antics and fun facts about the nobles, which, though said jokingly, would cause quite a stir if revealed publicly.

He also told some very poorly made stories to try to cheer me up and keep me in good spirits overall.

He also took me on a trip around the kingdom, going to various places and "escaping" the elite knights, just to propose to me in front of a beautiful lake.

My response was a cold no, which he received positively, saying that although I was cold, it was better than other rejections, and if he had more time, he might have been able to convince me to marry him.

We returned to the castle, and this time I spent 3 days fishing with my father. My "father" took me fishing because it’s a family tradition, where the father normally takes the son who has come of age.

It’s some kind of symbolism linked to the founder of the kingdom and his son. Of course, fishing with him was quite fun.

After that, the king had no more time, so I went back to wandering around with Aiden to various places again. He took me to various shops, and what I did was buy as much as I could.

It was fun to just go out and buy everything, because it reminded me of my past life where I could buy whatever I wanted.

Of course, a lot of it was donated to those in need again. Aiden seems to care about people more than I thought, though it only seems that way, as when I asked if he likes to help the needy, his response was no.

So I questioned why he always suggests that I donate the things I won’t use, and he said it’s to help me pave the way to heaven, so he’s doing it because I said I was going to hell.

Showing that the focus was still on me.

Of course, everything was very fun, but the notion that the day of my death was approaching was obvious, so that left me worried about what the next world will be like.

However, Aiden always told silly little stories that really made me believe and have hope that the next world could be good and might have magic to help me.

Aiden has no idea that I was referring to going to another world in some of my statements, but he obviously helped me a lot.

And finally, we’ve arrived. Today is my last day alive, and the specifications I requested have been made. I want to at least decide where I’m going to die in this world. My father built a special area made of black and white crystals.

And at the moment there is a coffin in the center of this special room. The coffin is made of [Rubla], a crystal-like mineral that exists in this world. It has a grayish color and symbolizes good luck.

The mineral is relatively common, like iron, but it’s quite beautiful and has a good meaning, so I chose it.

"Daughter, are you sure about this?" my father asks as I lie down in the coffin.

"Yes, I am. I want to die lying in the coffin. The sun is already setting, so the blue moon will soon rise, so I think we only have a few minutes left to say goodbye..." In this place, it’s just my father and Aiden.

My mother, unfortunately, couldn’t come because the return trip would take two months and she only had one month. At the moment, she must be halfway here, as she left to resolve something that would result in war if she didn’t.

"..." My father just steps back. I noticed that he’s terrible with words, so he probably doesn’t know what to say.

’At least I had a good rest...’ It was great to relax and rid myself of worries, even though Aiden is a yandere, he wasn’t all bad.

"Princess... may I call you by name?" Aiden approaches me.

"...Of course..."

"Shizune... would you accept my proposal of marriage?" He kneels in front of the coffin and asks.

"..." I remain silent.

"I understand... if we had just a little more time, I would have succeeded... the fate is cruel..." He responds to my silence.

If we had more time, I wouldn’t have accepted anyway, I just didn’t say anything because it would have seemed a bit too cruel for an image that would be forever preserved.

"...It’s rising..." From here I can see the blue glow that is blinding the sky. This was one of my requests, to see the moon rise. I want to see how the cause of my death in this world looks.

I have no idea how this death connects to a yandere, but there’s no reason not to try to witness such an event.

"..."

’I can’t speak anymore... my eyes are so heavy...’ I can’t feel my heartbeat anymore, it seems everything has stopped as I slowly close my eyes.

It’s more peaceful than I expected. I thought dying would be more painful. In any case, I left a small gift for Aiden I think it will help him. It’s my way of expressing gratitude for helping me rest.

...

...

...

"...Aiden, I’m leaving." The king says to me with seriousness. He was never good with words, so he’ll probably cry over the death of his daughter.

I look at Shizune lying peacefully in the coffin. She created the perfect image of a maiden who is merely sleeping, reminiscent of a story about a princess who fell into an eternal slumber and awakes with a prince’s kiss.

Unfortunately, I am no prince, and she is not just sleeping.

"..." I look at her as my tears fall. In the end, it was as expected she died from the curse of the blue moon. No matter who says this is a disease, it is not.

This is a curse cast by a shaman using the blue moon as a catalyst for the magic. It’s a cruel magic that sticks to the target and forces them to have their fate sealed when the next blue moon appears.

It systematically shuts down each part of the body, killing the target without them being able to do anything. And what pains me the most is knowing that I am the one responsible for her being cursed.

This was before I started to love her. It was done by my family. The blue moon curse takes something from a target and gives it to another in exchange for something from both.

The one who lost something will lose their life on the next blue moon, and the one who gained something will lose their sensitivity to most things.

What I gained was talent, and I lost my sensitivity to most things. As for the princess, she was the one who had her life taken from her.

All because of the cursed members of my family. I felt so guilty when I discovered this that I decided to become a knight for the royal family as a way to ease my conscience.

That’s when I officially saw the princess. I swore I would do anything for her, to make up for what I took from her, so I pretended to love her and tried to get closer to her by any means.

It didn’t work out entirely, but it functioned to a certain extent. In the end, I pretended to love her so much that I actually fell in love with her for real, and that only causes me more pain.

I started loving her so much that it became unbearable, and it only made the weight on my heart become crushing.

Knowing that she died because of my indirect fault causes me great anguish. Because of my fault, the one I love has died, and all I could do was provide a little comfort and entertainment.

Nothing I did could ever make up for what I took from her.

"...What’s this?" In her hand, there seems to be a piece of paper. She must have hidden it, but now that she’s dead, she no longer keeps it perfectly in her hand. As I have a keen eye for details, I easily noticed it.

"..." I take the paper and look at what is written.

[Aiden, if you’re reading this, then you’re a pervert! Were you staring at my body for what reason? Anyway, I’ll give you a little treat. I had a lot of fun... I think I’ll have good luck in the next world.

What I give you is my forgiveness. I forgive you, but for what am I forgiving you? I won’t tell you, you have to figure out for yourself what I’m forgiving you for. Anyway, I hope you live well.

And stop being a pervert who stares at princesses like that!! So now that I’ve informed you... I’ll take a little nap. I doubt I’ll see you again, so I guess this is goodbye. Take care.]

"H-Haha, s-she forgave me." I can’t hold back the tears. She never said she forgave me for being the one responsible for her death, but she said I can interpret her forgiveness however I want.

So there is another option? I don’t know how she found out, but if she didn’t hate me even after discovering it, I can only feel gratitude.

"Don’t worry, Shizune... I’ll... take care of your family and your little sanctuary until the day I die." It’s all I can do. I hope she’s happy in heaven.
