“Ugh……!”

I returned to Arjen’s lair in an instant while being held captive, and was thrown into Arjen’s room. When I looked into Arjen’s eyes, I felt like I had tasted it.

As madness appeared in her originally red eyes, there was no one truly crazy on the outside.

“Oh, Arzen?”

“Hehehe… Why did you call me Eugene? Oh, you don’t mean to be lukewarm and ask me to look at you just once because I won’t run away again, right? Huh?”

“No, I had no intention of running away in the first place…”

“Noisy!!”

It’s not loud, but it’s loud. I thought it might be responding to my name and talking, but that meant there was no sound at all for me to hear.

“Why, why are you leaving me!? What did I do wrong? Sorry, sorry… Don’t go…!”

A pain as if my eardrums were being scratched struck my ears. This was because each word was filled with anger and sadness, and it was expressed in verbs.

A creature that can kill people just by speaking. I was able to realize once again that the Arjen before my eyes was an enormous being that I could not even dare to imagine.

“So… listen to me…!”

Of course, that was it, and I raised my voice at Arjen, who didn’t seem to understand what I was saying at all. Of course, that wasn’t a very good choice.

“Don’t do that… If you run away, leaving me behind… I, I…”

It was a nuance that seemed to be somewhat related to the childhood abuse I heard from Rube.

“Yeah… Right… If you don’t want them to run away, cut off their wings… Ah, humans don’t have wings…? That’s right, legs…”

Arjen spit out dangerous words one after another. You were talking about your legs being fine earlier, but it couldn’t be true, right?

“If I cut off my leg, wouldn’t I be able to run away…?”

As soon as he said those words, a sparkle appeared in Arjen’s eyes. This was followed by a tingling sensation in the lower body.

The tickling turned into tingling, and the tingling soon turned into burning pain.

“Kwaaa!!”

A scream came out so loud that I couldn’t believe it had come from my mouth. It made me wonder if I had ever cried so desperately in my life.

That’s right, because I’ve never had two legs amputated in my life.

“Keuuu!!”

The muscles of my entire body were tense due to the sudden loss of both legs. My tear glands were stimulated by the pain, and tears streamed down my face.

I lost both my legs before the necklace Arjen gave me had time to react, and I was barely able to keep from losing my mind.

For some reason, I thought that if I closed my eyes like this, I would never be able to open them again.

“Ahh… Eugene… the blood… it’s a waste…”

While Arjen was barely able to come to his senses, he kept sticking out his tongue as if the blood soaking the floor looked delicious.

“Arjen… Ugh….”

gulp!

Even though I called his name, Arjen didn’t respond in particular. What came back instead was the sound of loud swallowing.

The sound gave me the creeps for some reason.

“I’m hungry…….”

Wait, no way. No, right?

I looked at Arjen with some faith, but she had already lost focus in her eyes and slowly walked towards the leg that had been attached to me just moments ago, drool dripping down her face.

I remembered something Kaela said one day.

He was saying that although he could fill his hungry stomach, Argen’s preferred food was intelligent beings such as humans, and he could not eat for them forever.

In other words, it was safe to say that Argen was now experiencing a backlash from not being able to eat properly.

“Eujin The smell… Ah… That’s right. This bridge is Eugene’s… Huh? Why did Eugene have his leg cut off…? That’s right, because he ran away. Because you abandoned me and ran away, your legs won’t let you run away… Ugh!!”

Arjen, who was gibbering while holding my leg, suddenly grabbed his head and let out a painful groan.

“That’s it… That’s it. Because beyond this, there may be no turning back.”

Arjen’s calm voice. No, that wasn’t Arjen.

I couldn’t see clearly because the tears were blocking my vision, but as someone who had been with her for several days, there was nothing I couldn’t distinguish between her personalities.

“Lu..,B?”

“Okay. You had a hard time. I wanted to intervene a while ago, but Arjen’s mind was so unstable. It must be quite difficult to take away the initiative.”

As I expected, Arjen turned into Luv. As Rube recited something in a language I couldn’t understand, I felt a burning sensation in my severed leg.

It was a different feeling from when my leg was cut off.

“Ugh…!”

“It hurts a lot, right? Just be patient. Still, I’m glad it hurts. That means it saved my nerves.”

From the sensations I felt in my lower body, from what Luv said, and without having to see it in person, it was clear that she was reattaching my severed leg.

“Go… thank you.”

In fact, if you look at it from the outside, it was as if Arjen with silver hair cut off my leg and Arjen with red hair reattached my leg.

It’s like giving a bottle and giving medicine, but the two are completely different personalities…

“So why do you go outside… Do you realize to some extent that you brought this upon yourself?”

Of course there is. If Arjen were an ordinary human woman, this would be a murder attempt by an obsessed psychopath, and I would blame her with all kinds of hatred.

But she was a dragon, a man-eating dragon at that.

Not only was he not my equal from the beginning, but he was controlling my life from the moment I first met him.

The problem was that just because she showed favor to me, I relaxed too much even though I clearly knew that she was suffering from a mental disorder.

“Wait a minute… Arzen Is this girl really crazy… Ugh…”

Rube, who had finished putting my legs together, suddenly frowned.

To be honest, this is the first time I’ve seen Rube, who always maintains a relaxed expression, frown, other than during sex.

“I’m sorry, Eugene… I tried to let him sleep first to let off steam, but he seems really angry.”

Although he did not specify the target in his words, I could tell just by looking at him that he was referring to Arjen.

“The bridge that was put together… If I don’t want to get cut off again, I’ll have to think of a good move somehow…”

With those last words, Rube closed his mouth. The reddish hair turned silver again, and the red light moved to the eyes.

I became Arjen again.

“Lub… You’re trying to steal my Eugene too… I’ll never let you do that…”

Arjen let out a heavy breath and raised his eyes. When he saw my leg was reattached, he tilted his head.

“Huh? Eugene. My legs are back to normal… I’m thinking of running away again! Is that so!?”

Dangerous. If things continue like this, I will have to say goodbye to the bridge that Rube worked so hard to put together.

After briefly observing Arjen’s behavior after cutting off his leg, I thought that if he were to be cut off again like this, it would go into Arjen’s stomach and never return to its original state.

‘Damn it, we have to stop that.’

In my head, I thought of dozens of things I could say to persuade her, but none of them were helpful.

After all, you have to listen first before you can judge whether the words are helpful or not.

From the beginning, I had no intention of listening to him, so it was natural that saying anything would be of no use since he was an invisible target.

“Let’s stay calm. I can definitely calm you down.”

I consoled myself out loud as part of self-hypnosis.

Since Arjen wouldn’t listen to me anyway, it was better to say it out loud to calm him down rather than just thinking about it.

“I’ll cut it cleanly again. So that you can never run away again… We’ll be together forever…”

I thought that it was quite a talent to mix kindness and murderous intent in one’s words at the same time, and I suddenly arrived at an answer.

Arjen is always showing favor to me.

If you look at me right now, it may seem like you’re anxious that you can’t kill me, but the fact that I’ve been alive and well since our first meeting to this day proves it.

In the first place, this current situation is excessive and is due to twisted favor.

And on Earth, there are these words. If the word you say is good, then the word coming back at you is good. Or, treat others as you would like to be treated.

There is a slight difference, but in this case, since Arjen did me a favor, I should also treat her favorably.

It was obvious that getting angry right now would have the opposite effect, so there was no other way.

Okay then. What favor can I give in a situation where the other person has no intention of listening to me at all?

Fortunately, the gestures here have almost the same meaning as on Earth, where I originally lived, so actions can fully replace words.

“You were sick earlier, right? This time I’ll cut it so it doesn’t hurt……”

Even after finishing the thought in my head, I faced Arjen, who did not stop saying creepy things. I struggled to get up and approach her, swaying from the shock of having my leg cut off.

Arjen must have thought my actions were as if he was asking me to cut off his leg quickly, so he began to wiggle his fingers and loosen his hands.

“Arjen.”

When I fell down, I was within touching distance of my nose, and without hesitation, I pushed my face into hers.

Sigh.

Favor shown through actions rather than words. Is there anything more to it than kissing? So let’s not fight and just kiss.

“……!?!?!?”

It was clearly different from the kiss with Luv or Kaela in terms of intensity.

It wasn’t a sticky kiss where tongues met and exchanged saliva, but it was literally a cute kiss like something out of a children’s romance novel.

But that alone made Arjen look embarrassed. At the same time, his eyes turned red as if he was happy, and then he opened his eyes round as if he couldn’t believe it.

It was the most expressive change I’ve ever seen in our time together.

“Ah…!”

When I realized that some time had passed, I quietly parted my lips. Then Arzen let out an exclamation mixed with complicated emotions.

Admiration, bewilderment, happiness… What was most evident was the disappointment that the kiss was over.

“You look regretful, so once again.”

Arjen looked very nervous at the declaration of war that they would kiss again.

‘That’s enough.’

A change in expression means that they are listening to me, and that they are listening to me means that they have regained some composure.

It was a huge improvement compared to just a little while ago when he was trying to cut off his legs.

side.

This is the second contact with Arjen’s personality. Unlike the first time, the lips move little by little to find the part and angle that provides the best contact.

It was a much more advanced kiss than the first kiss, as they opened and closed their mouths and adjusted their pace.

“Are you ready to listen to me now?”

After the second kiss, Arjen nodded slightly when I asked. It seemed that the medicinal effect of two kisses had far exceeded my expectations, as the madness from just a moment ago had been relieved so much.

Of course, I had no intention of ending my favor there.

“Well, I’m sorry this time, so I’ll do it again.”

“!?”

After saying that, I quickly kissed Arjen’s lips. He was startled by my words and quickly stuck his tongue between the slightly parted lips.

When she traced Arjen’s tongue once with the tip of her tongue, her pupils began to tremble as if there had been an earthquake, as if she had realized what had entered her mouth.
