Chapter Index

    When I saw those faces, I got angry and said that if I got hit even once, I would let them apologize.

    To be honest, I am not proud of it. The reason I just let them go back through hypnosis without asking them anything was because both parties were at fault.

    I ended up playing with them, and because I provided the cause, they even created a situation where they let Veronica off the cliff, so it could be said that I was the first cause.

    So, it is impossible to be honest.

    But if I came here to apologize to her like this, I thought it should be like this.

    Because even though I encouraged women to fight, I didn’t think I did something so bad that I would compare them to those who did it with the intention of ultimately killing anyone.

    If I had just ripped my head off and fought, I could say it was only my fault. But that wasn’t the case, so I shamelessly stepped forward.

    “Pyeong, cheek… ?”

    The first to react was Flora. He looked cold and glanced at his right hand, which I was touching and secretly looking at, and seemed to be shaking.

    Well, since he was the smallest guy, it was natural to be afraid.

    From the beginning, it seemed like no one here could say anything to me.

    Thinking about it, even if the cause was like this, in the end, it couldn’t be compared to doing something like that with the intention of killing someone, with the intention of not seeing someone, or with the intention of completely excluding someone from the party, so I quietly looked at them.

    After a moment of silence, Agnes opened her mouth.

    “… It’s my fault. Kylon. I did it because I liked you and couldn’t stand the sight of other kids staring at you… But since they kept not giving me a definite answer, I thought I should do something like that… I know it’s wrong. I know that what I did cannot be compared to anything else… ”

    “… … .”

    “Still, I wanted you to say sorry for not paying attention at least once.”

    Hearing those words breaks my heart. I decided that I couldn’t make any other excuses, so I came out in such a shameless way. Rather than lowering myself and admitting my faults and blaming the other person, I only spoke about the parts that were disappointing, and it was a moment when I couldn’t help but sigh and say, “Huh.”

    I stayed still, narrowed my eyebrows, and sighed deeply.

    He dropped his raised hands and slumped his shoulders.

    No matter how bad the sin was, no one would have regrets, so I just let out a mixed breath and moaned.

    “Sorry, I guess I was too insensitive.”

    As I said, I was silent for a while again, and then I looked at Veronica, who was probably eating alone, or else she might be staring at the food and waiting for me to come back.

    “You want to go back and apologize?”

    “Yes… Because I was really wrong… ”

    It was Linda’s voice.

    “Is it right to apologize? Did you know you won’t die? Didn’t you drop it because you wanted it to die? Either way, it is true that it caused trauma.”

    I said that to Linda.

    Veronica couldn’t forget the trembling look on the faces of the three who immediately threw her down the cliff.

    I saw it earlier, but that image kept haunting my eyes.

    If Veronica said she would take him with her as an apple, it seemed like she would nod her head regardless of how she felt.

    Furthermore, he seemed to be saying that it was okay now that he had forgiven him.

    Veronica is too withdrawn. Since I had never dealt with people in the first place, and had only lived a life of being beaten and being treated, I would have endured, endured, and endured it over and over again until it festered and exploded.

    So it was clear that I would endure the same thing this time too.

    I couldn’t bear to see him like that, so I tried to hit him instead, but when I actually hit him, I felt like that wasn’t my topic again.

    The eyebrows suddenly narrow.

    What are you going to do if I take you to Veronica like this? I also thought:

    She seemed forgiving. But what do you do after you forgive? Are you going back? Or are you going to say you’re rejoining the party? If I said I would join, it would be something I had no conscience about.

    Of course, it was said to be necessary in the fight against the Demon King, but it was unknown how Veronica would accept it.

    I was silent, pondered, and thought for a while.

    No matter how much I thought about what to do like this, the answer did not come easily.

    “Still, I’ll apologize until my knees crack.”

    I wouldn’t know if Veronica gave me a gentle slap on the cheek.

    “… Okay.”

    I quickly nodded.

    In the end, even I was not qualified and had nothing to say, so I created this division.

    I was a very sinful person.

    If Veronica got upset, I was going to have to apologize until my knees cracked in front of her tonight.

    As I entered the store again, I saw Veronica chewing food in her mouth and felt at ease.

    Veronica was blank, then looked at me and gave me a happy look, and at the same time, she looked at the heroine behind me and gave me a puzzled look.

    “… Sorry, they said they wanted to apologize.”

    “… Uh, uh. Um, yes.”

    Come to think of it, Veronica never spoke in front of others.

    She always wore saintly clothes and spoke in a saintly manner, so it seemed like she never felt at ease.

    Maybe that’s why, when I sent them off, I didn’t ask them how they could do that or if they weren’t going to my house.

    Of course, since there was a commotion from the goddess in the meantime, it seemed like she accepted it even more calmly.

    Anyway, I had no idea that the party would gather like this again, but we sat side by side at the table.

    I sat down at a large table to place a lot of food, but I had no idea it would work like this.

    Veronica and I were sitting next to each other, and Linda, Agnes, and Flora were sitting on the other side. Linda rolled her eyes here and there as if she was embarrassed, then jumped up from her seat.

    I had just sat down and was wondering what he was thinking about getting up again, but he came right up next to Veronica and put his head down on the floor.

    “Sorry!! I know that no matter what I say, it won’t comfort you… ! I hope you feel relieved because you can step on my head or slap me… !”

    Then Veronica’s eyes filled with embarrassment. From the moment of their reunion earlier, the embarrassment in his eyes never seemed to disappear.

    Veronica became even more confused as people around her were paying attention, and she looked around anxiously.

    Since I wasn’t wearing a saint’s clothes, I still couldn’t understand what was going on, and I felt fortunate to see the reactions of people around me as I told my story.

    If she had been wearing a saint’s clothes, she would have committed such a serious sin that she would have her head hit by a saint. I guess I did something worth dying for. It was a story that might have been full of stories like this.

    Anyway, Veronica was dazed and then gently pursed her lips.

    “Hey, wake up. People around me see it.”

    An exclamation burst out. Even though Veronica took off her saintly clothes, she spoke in a saintly tone naturally.

    But on the other hand, a feeling of sadness crept in. I think it proves that she lived a life of hiding herself to the point that when other people’s eyes were on her, she naturally spoke in a saintly tone.

    After that, Agnes knelt down on one knee next to Linda and apologized with all the courtesy of a knight, and Flora bowed her back and asked for forgiveness.

    I hope that the person who has done the most wrong will just feel better without asking for forgiveness. I thought it was really fortunate to see him say that.

    What I couldn’t do, I wanted Veronica to hit me with Linda’s permission, but Veronica didn’t seem to like hitting anyone, so I just gave up early.

    I quietly looked at the scene, thinking that I would just forgive and end it.

    The sight of Linda, Agnes, and Flora flocking to Veronica to apologize was truly shocking.

    After a short period of time, Agnes’ mouth opened.

    “… Well, saintess, it’s shameless to say this, but… Again, may I join the party? I will burn this body and become hostile to the devil… .”

    I wanted to say, “Don’t do it if you don’t want to do it,” but I couldn’t just insert words that had already been spoken, so my brows narrowed.

    I should have just warned you in advance.

    Veronica was upset because she felt like she would make the choice to go home right now rather than how she felt or how she felt.

    Of course, putting that aside for a while is the right choice. I felt very uncomfortable because I felt like I was forcing her to sacrifice again.

    Okay, while I was sick, Linda and Flora also helped out and said that they would come back to this party and contribute.

    “I will do the same.”

    “… Me too.”

    Those words made my head ache, but Veronica’s answer came out as expected.

    “… Ah, okay. I’m fine now.”

    “Ah… Yes, thank you.”

    As everyone was expressing their gratitude with an expression of admiration, as if they had no idea that it would really be received this way, Veronica continued speaking.

    “But I can’t give you Kylon.”

    It’s been a month since I’ve been with Veronica, so I can guess most of the answers.

    This answer was unexpected.
