Black Clover: The Whisperer

––

The Whisperer...

Every word she uttered was a curse, even the colloquies she began was considered appalling. The songs she sang and hummed were dreadful to those who heard them–– one would describe them as ear-splitting notes that screeched over one's soul. The prayers she sent up to the heavens–– they wouldn't even be noticed by the gods. Each and every syllable she spoke of, they were death wishes.

... At least, that was what others said.

How will a young orphan change her fate? The power that was blessed upon her very being, though as a curse by others. "How pitiful," others mutter around her. Whispers. They weren't even trying to hide it.

Those whispers were haunting Xierra over her sleep. Day and night, there wasn't a minute–– a single second where she didn't hear those poignant hushed voices. "It hurts–– it hurts so much..." Will she be able to overcome the challenges that life had brought to her? Or will she just give up?

"How sorrowful. Fate was never with you from the very beginning, Master."

"No, I don't believe in fate and such. There's no point in blaming it when reality's the one who's cruel."

"Oh? How interesting. Tell me, Master, what is it that you desire?"

"What is it... that I desire...?" Xierra remained quiet for a moment. The clenching of her fist loosened itself as she gritted her teeth. She looked up at her companion with a curious gaze within her saddened visage.

"You know full well what I desire–– for my kin to get the recognition they deserve–– to be treated as a living being and not only a wandering dead soul."

"Hmph, what a wish you have there, Master. The higher you climb, the further you'll fall."

Xierra chuckled in amusement at her companion's words, expecting them from the start. "Who knows? Perhaps even the heart of humans will hear my pleas. It isn't so hard to treat the dead the same as the livings."

"No, you are mistaken." Her companion soon pursed his lips, craning his head back and looked high into the star-filled sky. "A human's heart is something I can never understand, Master. Tell me... the 'Whisperer' is nothing more than a title we gave you. What will you do with it?"

"Then that title is what I will do–– if yelling doesn't work on these stubborn beings, then we'll have to whisper them–– take a different step."
