++ AzureKnight2008's Sub-Story ++

"Goki, if there is one thing that my mother taught me, it is... that there is no forever in this world."

"What do you mean?" Her words pierced through him like a sharp knife and the Blue Demon was forced to look away this time, unable to bear the pain it caused. /Has she changed her mind?/ If she chose to go back to her father and her people, he would not make it harder on her than it already was, he would not tear her apart any further. But the pain of parting wasn't easy for him the second time around. His chest burned. Every muscle in his body felt teased on a razor's edge, reverberating with tension and restraint.

"I chose to love you both, but my future is with you, Goki."

He jolted still, clearing his ears, refusing to believe he'd heard her right. Kasumi's emerald eyes were luminous as she waited patiently until Goki looked at her again.

"There is only right now. There's never a guarantee for what is to come." She placed her hand on his bandaged chest, just over his heart and leaned forward until her face was only a few inches from his. "All we have is the present, right now." Her eyes welled and her voice became a bit shaky. "Would you be mine right now? For whatever hell has past and whatever is to come in the future, would you be MINE? No promises, no guarantees, just now."

She remembered their first meeting under the full moon, when he killed those werewolves with such grace that amazed her. She remembered her decision when she found him inside the cave, unconscious and on the verge of bleeding out by his merciless attackers. His icy blue gaze at the river bank, when she almost believed he felt nothing for her... And then, he was there, risking his life to save her, defending her against the fierce onslaught of those monsters...

No matter what, Kasumi had sworn she would take care of him. It was as true now as it was back then.

No matter how difficult her decision, she knew she'd made the right one.

No matter what, she wanted to love him and take care of him. No matter what, she would create a whole new life together with Goki–– the demon-man who had owned her heart from the moment she beheld him––– far from her family and friends - their tormentors, and far from human interference.

Goki's hand found hers then, palms touching gently as their fingers interlaced, his other hand holding hers over his heart. "Kasumi..." He said, his voice rumbled with the effort to constrain the emotions surging in his chest, "This land shall be your new home––our home. From today onward, you and me... we don't need anyone to approve what we know in our hearts."

At that very moment, all Kasumi could see were his warm smile and sapphire-blue eyes, mesmerizing, full of Light and Hope. There was no answer really, no answer beside what he gave. Wrapping his arms around her waist as a subconscious action and pulling her closer to him until her soft, feminine form was fully pressed against his bruised and battered one, Goki leaned down and kissed her with everything in his heart, praying that what he felt could pass from him to her. There were words in his heart, thousands of words, more words than stars in the sky. He could not fathom where to begin, or how he could ever express them all. He'd thought he was meant to be alone, but now he knew he'd only been waiting for her. She'd chosen him, and he'd make sure she'd never regret it. Kasumi responded eagerly, clinging to him like ivy climbing a tree trunk, silent tears ran from her eyes and mixed with their kiss. Here she was safe, here in his arms while he kissed her. There was no need for more words that night, because what needed to be said, Kasumi had said already. They could listen to each other's hearts, they could feel the beating, for they spoke their secret language, and they would understand.

-- Artwork featuring the adult Azure Demon Lord -Goki- expressing his ardent gratitude & passionate love to his fair human maiden -Kasumi- in ancient days during a stormy night (>1.300 years ago). Characters from Kishin Douji Zenki series.

++ Important Notes ++

. My latest findings conclude that Goki was an 'Oni' - a wild demon, or a demon wanderer, without most of his magical powers, some time before his enlistment for the Guardian Warrior Force (672 AD). Notwithstanding being a pacifist at heart (as indicated in KDZ), the Blue Demon found himself getting caught in the crossfire between the humans & non-humans, during which he met n fell in love with a human maiden who later on played a very important role in his life. In other words, their Love is FORBIDDEN

. Goki's Special Demon Markings only emerge when he's training with high intensity or using his magic -- fav.me/dbopm0d . Hence, they're not visible in this scene.

. At his full adult height in ancient days, the Blue Demon Warrior stood at 6'9" (2m05), slightly less than his Red comrade (7' = 2m13), as inferred from KDZ Original Manga. His human maiden/1st wife was around 5'6" (1m68).

. It was until Goki joined his Master -Enno Ozunu-, a High Priest with a prestigious history & the future Bodhisattva of Japan, on the quest to save humanity that his status ascended even higher–– to a 'Kishin', or 'Tatakai no Kami' [God of Fighting], as his magical forces fully awakened and he earned the title of the "Demon GOD of Azure Light, of Protection & Re-Creation/Revival", in virtue of the Blue Lord's compassion & love for mankind, as well as his magical healing power & exceptional abilities in controlling the Five Cosmic Elements [Aether-Water-Earth-Fire-Wind].

. Ancient records also depict Goki with a sword even when the noble Blue Lord is widely perceived as a Master of Boujutsu & martial-arts. A Peace-Loving Demon Warrior who pursues Justice & Truth.
