Once we left the orphanage.

Because I can’t work at the daycare center.

“I need a quiet place. Do you know anything?”

“Follow me. There is a hideout in my Korean branch.”

I escaped into the countryside, surrounded by the barrier of Rebecca’s runes.

I continued to observe the rune barrier on the way, but my barrier was still the same.

‘Why can’t I analyze it?’

Unlike other magic, Rebecca’s rune barrier could not be analyzed.

To be precise, it should be said that even if you analyze and run it, you will not get the same results.

I don’t know what the principle is, but it seems like there’s something incredible going on.

“Now that I think about it, what are you going to do about Su-hyeon?”

Rune Clan Survivor.

If you leave Cheon Soo-hyeon at the Sunshine Orphanage like this, she will live a normal life.

“I have to bring him in. Even if he’s not educated, he’s part of Rune’s clan. After slowly making friends with him, I’ll adopt him. And…I want to make him part of Rune’s clan.”

In Rebecca’s words, I could feel her genuine affection for Rune’s clan.

The word education bothered me.

“What is that training? Is it a special training for the Rune clan?”

I think that special rune barrier was also part of that education.

“Well, to put it simply, you are living within the Rune barrier since childhood. There is a special education method of the Rune clan that forces your magical properties to be the same as the Rune barrier.”

“oh….”

“If you continue to focus on the Rune barrier for a few years, your magic circuit will completely change. Then, from then on, you will become a true member of the Rune clan.”

Then the rune barrier I used was only half.

Somehow it went through easily.

“Come inside.”

Rebecca entered a shabby building in a corner of the city.

After passing through a dark passage where bats seemed to come out, a fairly bright living space appeared.

“There’s a bed and a bathroom in this room. Follow me.”

Rebecca took off her outer clothes and tried to enter the room.

I plan to do it right from now on.

“Just a moment, Rebecca. Just a moment.”

“…Weren’t you supposed to pray for me to make a baby?”

Rebecca gave me a disappointed look as I held on to my coat.

“I have to check something before that. Let’s go to the room first.”

Rebecca, who was frowning, was a little scared, but somehow managed to get her into the room.

I sat Rebecca at the table in a room that looked like a witch’s laboratory, and I sat across from her.

“Um… First of all, Rebecca was part of Pandemic, right? Because of that, I need to check something.”

“…But I didn’t kill anyone.”

Rebecca seemed a little nervous.

I didn’t mean to ask if he killed someone.

“That’s not true. Maestro, the boss of Pandemic, has brainwashing magic. I need to check if Rebecca has also been brainwashed.”

This is why I did not accept Rebecca right away.

Maestro’s mental control.

I can’t trust anyone unless I can definitely be on their side.

After hearing what I said, Rebecca smiled as if relieved.

“Aha, what can I say? Don’t worry. I know about Maestro’s mind control.”

“Really? Really?”

You know about mind control?

“Yes. Every time I meet the Maestro, I activate the rune barrier. So that’s no problem.”

“…Maestro’s magic is quite strong. Rebecca, you might not know.”

“Naerun’s barrier is also strong. It can block it perfectly. Even the Maestro won’t notice that I’m not brainwashed.”

“….”

Looking at Rebecca’s confident appearance, I tilted my head slightly.

Because it was different from what I knew.

‘Rebecca must have been severely brainwashed.’

In the original, Rebecca is clearly under the Maestro’s mind control.

Because there is a scene where the brainwashing is released right before death.

Of course, the current Rebecca would not know that fact, so I told her back.

But I’m a little confused because you’re so confident.

‘Have you been brainwashed yet?’

Maestro usually brainwashes people upon first meeting, so the possibility of that happening is low.

At that time, I thought back to what Rebecca had just said.

‘I’ve never killed anyone.’

“Rebecca, you’ve never been on a mission to kill people?”

“Yes, of course. I’m only providing the bare minimum of help. In exchange for your help in uncovering the backstory of Pandemic Rune’s clan.”

“….”

Rebecca said that… .

‘no.’

That can’t be possible.

Because Rebecca’s rune barrier was clearly present in the association’s social party terror attack.

Although Rebecca did not kill anyone directly, there were definitely casualties at that time.

“….”

I checked Rebecca’s face.

It was a face without a trace of shame.

“…Rebecca. Follow me.”

“Huh? Which one?”

“Just follow what I say. And… stay strong.”

“Are you strong? No, I said you weren’t brainwashed or anything.”

Just before she died in the original work.

I remember a scene where I was crying and regretting the past.

Rebecca, who was eventually overpowered by the protagonist and heroines, was only about to die when her brainwashing was lifted.

-From the beginning… That’s it. Haha… Why did I end up like this?

Because he was a popular villain thanks to his good looks, the production team created a special ending scene for him.

-I didn’t want to kill anyone. I just… Just a clan… .Maestro… .

At that time, since I was playing the game, I had no choice but to kill Rebecca, but now it is different.

Rebecca seemed a little dissatisfied, but she obeyed me obediently.

“Just follow along.”

“Just follow along….”

“No, not that. From now on.”

“…I was just trying to lighten the mood. Don’t be angry.”

ha.

Does this person know my heart?

I slowly recited the Maestro’s brainwashing language that I had seen in the original.

When the Maestro speaks, the brainwashing begins, but when someone else speaks, extreme pain occurs and there is a trigger that returns the memories of when the brainwashed person was brainwashed.

After discovering this, Pandemic’s attack became easier.

“…Tuarmamaestro.”

“Tuarmamaestro.”

Rebecca, who spoke about brainwashing, did not seem to be in bad condition.

Could it be that he really wasn’t brainwashed?

“…are you okay?”

“Hmm, what is this? Of course it’s okay… huh?”

dump-

Rebecca’s body lost all strength and she fell off the chair she was sitting on.

“Rebecca?!”

“Now, wait a minute…Why me? Why…Ugh, ugh. Ugh!”

“….”

I averted my eyes as I watched Rebecca pour out everything that was inside her.

The flood of memories causes severe headaches, and even the crimes he committed are remembered.

It’s rude to watch that.

“Wook, woop…cough. Cough.”

“clean.”

When Rebecca’s condition got a little better.

At my signal, I passed the cleaned floor and approached Rebecca.

“Rebecca, are you okay?”

“…I thought I stopped it.”

Rebecca mumbled with her face drained of color.

“That’s the scary thing about the Maestro. There shouldn’t be any gap. First, let’s find a way to break the brainwashing together with me.”

This trigger simply tells you whether brainwashing has occurred or not.

To undo brainwashing, another complicated method is needed.

“No, I understand. It’s okay.”

Phew.

Rebecca took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and unleashed her magic.

Soon, magic power gathered near Rebecca’s heart.

It was so small that it couldn’t even be seen properly.

The magic power that was constantly gathering into a very small dot suddenly began to expand.

The magic power that passed through her entire body without a break changed into a sphere outside Rebecca’s body, and black magic power was stuck to the magic sphere surrounding her body.

That bad horsepower.

I knew what it was right away.

“No way…”

“It’s the Maestro’s magic power. I don’t know when it entered my body, but… now that I know it, I can take it out with the rune barrier.”

Rebecca, who had gathered the black magic power from the air, compressed the magic power with a crackling sound.

Fondant-

And when I put it into the beaker that was sitting next to me, the magical power disappeared.

“…Ha. I made a rant, but it only came across as ugly. I’m sorry that your baby’s mother is such a person.”

“no.”

Before I knew it, I had become a mother.

“And… that wasn’t true. I didn’t kill anyone. I’m sorry for lying.”

“…are you okay.”

In fact, it is morally and legally problematic, but… Because I’m not living straight either.

Just as I had to target the heroines, I had to find Rebecca Dorun’s clan.

To her, it was something as precious as life.

But the good news is that I was able to stop this brainwashing in advance.

In the second half of the original work, Rebecca is a scary villain who kills people without hesitation.

It’s definitely encouraging that they released it before they were so deeply brainwashed.

“Don’t be too upset. It’s not Rebecca’s fault.”

“But…ha. What should I do?”

Rebecca still can’t believe what she did.

‘As expected, he is a good person at heart.’

As soon as he found out that I wasn’t part of Rune’s clan, he didn’t try to force me… It seems true that he is a good person.

‘I’m glad we met sooner.’

If we had met each other after doing something worse, it might have been impossible to recover from the guilt of what we had done.

“Let’s go do some volunteer work together later. Or I’ll introduce you to a good counselor. What’s important is the revival of Rune’s clan. Isn’t that right?”

“…huh.”

The reason why Rebecca, who looks like a decadent witch but is gentle on the inside, joins an evil group called Pandemic.

It is the revival of the Rune clan.

Rebecca’s eyes widened, as if she was surprised that the words “Run’s Clan Revival” had come out of her mouth.

“Then…are you going to do it right away? You even checked it?”

“That’s good, but…I want a proper revival of Rune’s clan. So do you, Rebecca, right?”

“Of course. I could risk my life on it.”

“Then, please tell me the rune barrier.”

“Rune barrier? What does that have to do with it?”

“Why? As Jerun’s barrier level increases, won’t his children also be born with that talent?”

Of course, I don’t know if it will work or not.

But it’s better than nothing.

Moreover, it is a good thing that Naerun’s barrier skills are increasing.

“…Is that so? But it’s better to have at least one child quickly….”

“No. What if a child comes along who can’t use the rune barrier properly? I don’t want that situation to happen.”

“That’s…sigh. Okay, I’ll do as you say.”

Rebecca didn’t like it, but she saw my gaze and eventually nodded.

I’m the one donating the sperm… What should I do?
