215. The Ten Commandments of God (7)

  16 July 2018

  “. . .”

  Lucas, the Third Strongest Believer in the world, wakes up and opens his eyes in his own bedroom inside the Ten Commandments of God HQ, on the tenth floor, where everyone lives. He gets up and sits on the bed. He takes a pose to pray to God to ask Him for blessings and guidance for everything that he is going to do today.

  “Amen.”

  He gets out of his bed to take a quick bath in the bathroom inside his room. It only took him five minutes, and he got out with fresh clothes. He walks towards the door, and when he is about to grab the door handle, someone knocks on it.

  *KNOCK KNOCK*

  “Lucas-kun! Are you awake?”

  “Miyu-chan, huh? I am!”

  Lucas opens the door and sees Miyu behind it. She looks like she just woke up, and she still has her bed hair.

  *!*

  “Y-You already took a bath and even changed clothes??”

  “Yeah!”

  “LUCAS-KUN! WHAT ABOUT OUR DAILY MORNING PRAYERS AND BIBLE STUDY TOGETHER?! We decided that we should start doing that together to help Sierra-chan and Claudia-chan understands who God is?!”

  “Sorry, I already prayed earlier. I’m gonna have to skip the Bible study because today, I have to check on her!”

  “Ah! So, it’s that time of the month, huh?”

  “Yeah, kinda! I also just miss her, actually.”

  “Alright, alright! Guy-with-a-girlfriend-san!”

  “Don’t worry, Miyu-chan! I also prayed that you, and everybody else here, also get a girlfriend/boyfriend!”

  *!*

  “Y-YOU DON’T HAVE TO PRAY FOR US ABOUT THAT!!”

  “Why not? You keep saying you want a relationship! And Claudia also kept daydreaming every day about becoming a wife!”

  *THUD THUD THUD*

  “I AM NOT DAYDREAMING OF BECOMING A WIFE!!!!”

  Claudia suddenly runs towards Lucas’ room and shouts in both Miyu's and his face with an embarrassed face.

  “Claudia-chan, your bed hair is awful! You look like a hungry lion who hasn’t eaten in four years.”

  “Thanks for the honest and brutal compliment, Lucas-kun! I am still wondering how the heck someone who throws awful remarks so many times like you, even has a girlfriend.”

  “Thanks for the awful remarks, Claudia-chan! I appreciate it! Alright! I’m gonna leave now! I’ll be back once I’m done!”

  “Alright, say hi to her for me!” said Miyu.

  “And for me too!” said Claudia.

  “FOR ALL OF US TOO!!” shouts the rest of the Ten Commandments from outside the room who overheard their banters.

  “Alright, guys! Thanks!”

  *FWIP*

  Lucas vanishes from his spot. Miyu closes the door to his room and gathers everyone in the living room.

  “Alright, guys! Let’s start our daily morning prayer and Bible study!”

  “YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!” everyone replied positively.

  16 July 2018

  America, Minnesota, in a city called Rochete. . .

  There is a certain hospital in this city that is considered to be the best in the world. In one of the many buildings, there is a certain someone currently resting in a hospital bed.

  This is a 17-year-old girl named Lurielle. She has beautiful, short, wavy, pale yellow hair that hangs above her shoulders. Her bangs are flat, covering her forehead. She has a pair of beautiful blue eyes. She has been wearing a white hospital gown every day. She is 164cm tall and weighs around 47kg. Her bust size is C-cup. Her legs, from slightly under her crotch, all the way to her toes, have gone completely pure white, and she can’t move her legs at all.

  She is currently awake, but she keeps her eyes closed because she has nothing to do every day other than just lying on the bed. She has IV lines injected into her arms. She is inside a special room in this hospital, and she is all alone every day. There are special nurses and doctors assigned to take care of her every day.

  *FWIP*

  Lucas suddenly appears inside this room, next to her.

  “You awake, Lu-chan??”

  *!*

  “Lu-kun?! I’m so happy that you’re here!”

  “Yeah! I’m here on time as always!”

  “Actually, you’re about 3 minutes late, Lu-kun!”

  “*sigh* Spare me the minor details, Lu-chan, you know I am not good with timings.”

  “Ahahahaha! I’m sorry, Lu-kun! I was just joking.”

  “So, wanna do the usual?”

  “Yes, please! I’m very bored every day!”

  “Eh? You’ve been seeing every place around the world that I go since I connected your vision with mine!”

  “True! But I don’t wanna just see them! I wanna visit them! I wanna touch the grass! I wanna swim in the ocean! I wanna build sandcastles on the beach! I wanna pet a wild lion! I wanna slide down a snowy mountain on a ski!”

  “Then, do you wanna do that thing I told you about! With Miyu-chan’s help! She can connect your brainwaves to me, and everything you want to do will be transmitted to me, and then, with my Faith power, I’ll move your legs according to your wishes. I’ll try to move your legs as naturally as possible.”

  This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

  “No.”

  “Eh? Why not?”

  Lurielle suddenly pouts.

  “Because there’s no point if I’m not doing it on my own. I want to move my own legs as I please!”

  “. . .”

  Lucas didn’t respond, and his face looked sad.

  “And then maybe, I can please you too, Lu-kun!”

  “PRRRRFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTT!!!”

  Lucas spits in shock, breaking away the sadness in his heart.

  *COUGH COUGH*

  “What are you saying so suddenly, Lu-chan?”

  “Well, we’re dating! So eventually, we’ll get married and we’ll have sex! But before that, I want to be healed first, of course! I don’t wanna be a burden who just stays in bed for 24 hours a day while my husband works his ass off every single day outside! And then you even have to take care of me without you being able to even take a break first when you came home!”

  “*Sigh* I’m just using my Faith power and not exerting my physical body or anything. I’m not nearly as tired compared to what Non-Believers workers have to go through every single day!”

  “But it’s still dumping all of my responsibilities on you, Lu-kun!”

  “It doesn’t work that way if a sick person is involved.”

  “. . .”

  “Anyway! We'd better start now!”

  “Okay.”

  Lucas takes a folded wheelchair that was placed behind him, leaning against the wall at the corner of the room. He unfolds it and places it next to the bed. He walks towards the edge of the bed.

  “I’m gonna pick you up, alright?”

  “Eh? Isn’t it easier to just use your Faith power and warp me into the wheelchair instantly as usual??”

  “It will!”

  “Then why?”

  “. . .I miss you, so I wanna touch you.”

  Lucas' face turns red a bit. Lurielle’s face also turns red in turn.

  “D-Do as you wish. . .”

  Lucas picks up Lurielle from the bed very carefully and puts her to sit in the wheelchair.

  *pant pant pant*

  “Eh?? Am I heavy, Lu-kun?”

  “*Pant pant* N-No! It’s just, I never really move my muscles since I use my Faith power for everything in my life. *pant pant*”

  “I see.”

  “By the way, have you ‘taken a bath’ today??”

  “Yeah! A nurse washed me earlier.”

  “Oh, okay.”

  “Hm? Lu-kun, you sound disappointed!” said Lurielle with a mocking face.

  “Huh? What? I am not!”

  “Really? You wanna see me naked that much?”

  “Yes! But I’ll save it until we’re married.”

  “Oh. O. . .kay. . .”

  Lurielle’s face turns red once again.

  Lucas walks behind the wheelchair and takes her infusion stand with him. He starts pushing the wheelchair with her out of the room.

  .

  .

  .

  At a small garden in the hospital area on ground level, Lucas is pushing Lurielle while walking around the beautiful garden. There are so many colorful flowers and unique plants in this small garden. There are butterflies flying over the patches of flowers just above them.

  “Isn’t this small garden beautiful, Lu-chan?”

  “Yeah, but I’ve seen this so many times by now! I’m kinda bored of it. . .”

  “Eeehh?? Then let’s go to the fish pond over there!”

  Lucas pushes Lurielle into the fish pond.

  “Wanna feed the fish, Lurielle?”

  “Eh? Can I? That’s at least something different than just staring at the same fish pond so many times!”

  “Alright, wait for a bit here!”

  *FWIP*

  Lucas vanishes from behind Lurielle and reappears after two exact minutes.

  “I bought bread!”

  “Yay!”

  Lucas gave Lurielle a loaf of bread, and she tore it off bits by bits. She throws the bits of bread into the fish pond.

  *SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH*

  And every fish in the pond quickly splashes their bodies around in a struggle to eat the bread as fast as possible, splashing water everywhere.

  “WAAA!! I GOT WET, LU-KUN!!”

  “Would you prefer not to?”

  “Nah, this is fun! It’s like swimming but not really, hehe!”

  “. . .”

  Lucas did not respond, and he just smiled to himself sadly, hearing her respond. Lurielle tears more of the bread and keeps throwing the bits into the pond.

  *SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH*

  The fish are getting rougher and rougher, and they splash more water everywhere.

  “WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! WATER SPLASH!!!”

  Lurielle is screaming in excitement with both of her hands raised upwards. Her hospital gown is mostly wet now. Some of the water almost splashed into her IV lines, but Lucas erected an invisible barrier around them.

  After a while, she finished feeding the fish with the bread. Her hospital gown is so wet, it looks like someone just dumped her into a pool, and she was picked up immediately after.

  “Hm, let’s get Lukia-chan to dry you off, Lu-chan!”

  “EH? LUKIA-CHAN IS COMING? WHEN?”

  “Wait.”

  “(Lukia-chan! Are you on the line? Are you busy right now?)”

  “(Hm? Lucas-kun? No, I’m free at the moment. What’s up?)”

  “(Can you come to the hospital really quickly? I’ll warp you!)”

  “(Ah, okay! I’m ready now!)”

  “(Alright!)”

  *FWIP*

  *!!!*

  Lukia, the 7th Strongest Believer in the world, suddenly appears next to Lurielle.

  “Yo! Long time no see, Lu-chan!”

  “LUKIA-CHAN!! IT’S BEEN A WHILE!!”

  *!*

  “Oh, wow, you’re so wet. What on earth happened??”

  “Ehehehehe! I was feeding the fish here.” answers Lurielle.

  “The fish were so excited during the feeding, they splashed water everywhere.” adds Lucas.

  “Oh, I see! You want me to dry her up?”

  “Yes, please!”

  “Alright, Lu-chan!”

  Lukia moves her left hand from left to right, and all of the water from Lurielle’s gown flies back towards the pond.

  *!*

  “WOW! IT’S INSTANTLY DRIED OFF!! THANKS, LUKIA-CHAN!”

  “This is nothing, Lu-chan!” said Lukia, smiling.

  “Alright, you wanna go back already, Lukia-chan?”

  “Hm? I kinda wanna spend time here for more, but Miyu-chan is calling me.”

  “Alright, then.”

  Lukia crouches in front of Lurielle.

  “Lu-chan! I apologize for leaving already! But I’ll try to visit every now and then, alright?” said Lukia, apologizing while putting her palms together in front of Lurielle.

  “It’s okay, Lukia-chan! I’m happy to see you even if it’s just for a bit. I know how busy you guys are every day. I understand!”

  “Alright, then, see you next time, Lu-chan!” said Lukia as she waved goodbye.

  “See you next time, Lukia-chan! Please come with everyone else next time, okay?”

  “Of course! We’ll all come up with the right schedule!”

  “Alright, then, Lukia-chan!” said Lucas.

  “Okay!”

  *FWIP*

  And Lukia vanished and was sent back into the Ten Commandments of God HQ instantly.

  “Alright, let’s continue, Lu-chan!”

  “Okay!”

  “Let’s head to the nearby convenience store!”

  “Yay!”

  *!*

  “Ah! Wait here for a bit, Lu-chan! The doctor wants to talk to me.”

  “Oh, okay!”

  Lucas left Lurielle all alone for two minutes max. He was talking to her doctor back in her room.

  Lurielle is currently sick with an incurable disease where the cells on her legs are dead, turning her skin completely pure white. Something happened in the past where she was possessed by a demon, and this was the result of it. She has been put into this hospital to treat her physical and mental conditions. No amount of treatment could restore her legs to their former glory whatsoever.

  The doctor is currently informing Lucas about Lurielle’s physical well-being.

  *FWIP*

  Lucas appears back to Lurielle.

  “So, what did the doctors say?”

  Lucas simply shakes his head.

  “I see. I guess there really is no hope for me left, are there, Lu-chan??”

  “. . .”

  Lucas cannot answer her.

  “Say, Lu-chan. Why don’t you just dump me and find a proper woman, unlike me? I bet that would make you happier. . .”

  Lucas immediately crouches in front of her.

  “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! IT HUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRTTSSSS!!! LU-CHAAAANN, I’M SORRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!”

  Lucas pinches her left cheek as hard as he possibly can. He releases his pinch after three whole seconds.

  “Huweeeeee!!! It hurts!!”

  Lurielle almost shed a tear from the pain. She also covers her cheek with both of her hands.

  “I am deeply offended by everything you just said, Lu-chan!”

  “Eh?”

  “Why would you say something like that? HOW COULD I EVER DUMP SUCH A BEAUTIFUL GIRLFRIEND LIKE YOU, LU-CHAN?? ARE YOU THE ONE WHO WANTS TO DUMP ME INSTEAD? IS THAT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT?”

  *!*

  “WHAT?? NO!!”

  “What? You suddenly feel bad for me? Even though you are the one who stays in bed 24/7?!”

  “. . .”

  Lurielle’s face turns sad.

  “I apologize, Lu-kun. . .”

  She bows her head to Lucas as she sincerely apologizes.

  “. . .”

  Lucas was silent for a moment.

  *Smooch*

  But then he suddenly kisses Lurielle on her forehead.

  “Apology accepted! But don’t ever make that kinda joke ever again, alright! You are the most important person in my entire life, Lu-chan. Plant that thought deep into your mind.”

  Lurielle’s face turns red, and she smiles widely, and she doesn’t even realize it.

  “I-i-is that so? Hahahahaha!”

  *!*

  “Miyu-chan summoned me.”

  “Then I guess you should go!”

  “I’ll take you back to your bed.”

  .

  .

  .

  Lucas pushes Lurielle all the way back to her room on foot. He did not warp them both when they left, and when they’re heading back, because Lurielle insisted on it from the very first time she was hospitalized. She carefully puts Lurielle back into her bed and folds her wheelchair, and puts it in its original place.

  *Smooch*

  Lucas grabs Lurielle’s left hand with both of his hands and kisses it.

  “I’m going, Lu-chan!”

  “Have a safe trip, Lu-kun!”

  *KA-CLAK*

  *!*

  All of a sudden, they both heard the sound of the door behind them being locked. Lucas immediately turns around and enters his battle stance. Given his Faith power, he can easily sense a person’s spatial coordinate, so it is impossible to sneak up on him, YET that is exactly what happened now.

  *!!!*

  As soon as Lucas takes a glance at the person on the door, his face goes pale.

  “Y-You. . . Martin?!”

  “King of Space, Lucas Xein! I need you to do something for me! Come!” said Martin with a serious, not-smiling expression.

  And ever since that day, both Lucas and Lurielle have gone missing completely without a single trace left in this world.
