When I opened my eyes again, I hoped this was a dream.

No, this had to be a dream.

Because this can’t be real… this is… … .

“This is not reality… … .”

“Haaa♥!!”

“This won’t work. Put more medicine in. Put those women in too.”

“Okay.”

What I’m seeing now must be a dream.

Because there’s no way my dad would show his happy face on drugs in front of me.

He was the type of person who never tried to smile happily in front of me, so there’s no way he would act like an animal.

“This is a dream. This is a dream. This is a dream.”

But as if it were not a dream, the beastly behavior of the father and the women intertwined through the glass window gradually makes him realize the reality.

I don’t want to realize it. I wish this was just a dream.

I don’t want to know. I don’t want to know. Please stop. Stop!!

… … I felt like I was going to die after repeating the same words hundreds of times in my head.

This feeling that I’m not me. This feeling that she’s me and I’m that woman, that I’m my dad and my dad is me.

Am I having a schizophrenia? No, I don’t think so.

I’m fine. Yes, I worked as usual today.

And then I came home and fed the cat while listening to the kids yapping.

There was a house. Of course, it was dirty because of the water my friends spat out, but it was a nice place to live if I just cleaned it.

Yeah, I’m dreaming at home right now.

This situation is a dream.

dream.

please.

I hope it was a dream.

Please, dream… … .

“Please, I hope it’s a dream… … .”

“Waaa♥!!”

“Ehhhh♥Haaang♥!”

“Ehhh♥Euhh♥… … .”

Bam.

My dad collapsed.

“What? Are you dead?”

“He’s dead.”

“Hey, man, I told you not to give me that much medicine.”

“So what? He wasn’t the only guy there. Everyone had a good time, right?”

“That’s right. Then, what about those women?”

“What should I kill you for?”

“Then, what about that girl?”

“Still, it seems okay, so I have to make you watch the next one right away.”

“That’s too bad.”

“What can we do? It’s our job. Come on, move quickly!!”

The adults muttered something incomprehensible and disappeared.

And in front of me, there was only my father who had turned away with a pained expression on his face, and my mother who continued to whine and sprinkle water on him.

I felt frustrated and helpless at the sight of the deceased being insulted, and I was left feeling angry and helpless at not being able to do anything about it.

At least if I was there I could have done better without killing my father.

If only I were there.

I’m over there… … .

Huh?

Why do I think like this?

“No. This isn’t me. Come on. No. Come on.”

For a moment, I felt envious of mothers.

This had to be a lie.

My father died in pain, but I feel envious of the mothers who killed him.

I felt so pathetic and like trash.

I am a traitor.

I couldn’t even protect my parents, and I lusted after them.

… … I felt like my mind was being violated.

Boom!

The bottom of the glass container containing the mother and father disappeared, revealing the wolves underneath.

Those that looked like they had starved for several days would bite and kill their mothers and fathers in one gulp before filling their bellies.

I shed tears when I saw that sight.

The floor is restored and the adults are back.

… … But what on earth are those boxes in the adults’ hands?

I feel uneasy for some reason.

“Iris. A gift for you.”

An adult placed a box in a glass container and then opened it.

Inside the box were things shaped like people.

I hope that whatever seems somehow familiar is a lie.

Boom!

A gap appeared above, and a huge square box appeared within the gap.

The square box emitted light, and a scene played inside it.

The scene was pointing to our house, and inside the house, two familiar people were bringing a boy and raping him.

There were also adults in the scene, and they poured what appeared to be oil around our house and set it on fire.

Hwarururuk!

The house started burning and the friends inside screamed.

-Fire!! Fire!!!

-Bang bang bang!!

-Who’s there!! Who locked the door!!”

ㅡPlease open it!! Please open it!! I’ll give you everything I have, so please!!!”

-Hey! You guys over there, do you know who I am?! I’m a member of the Romantic Steel Axe gang, huh? If you open this right now, everything that’s going on right now will go away, so open the door!!!

-Bang! BANG! BANG BANG!!!!

Hwarururuk!

The house was engulfed in flames, and the lights went out.

The scene showed inside the house, showing two piles of ashes lying in front of the door.

“Ahhh… … .”

After losing my parents, I lost my friends and my home.

The disgust I had felt toward myself for what had just happened was now directed at the adults who had kidnapped me.

“I’m going to kill you!!! I’m going to kill you!!! When I get out of here, I’m going to make it so painful that you’ll beg me to apologize at my feet!!!!”

A threat from a powerless child. The adults laughed at my threat.

Then he brought a box containing his friend’s ashes and sprinkled them on my face.

“Are you a bum, you bum? You cancerous lump of cells that don’t even pay taxes.”

“Eww!!!!”

I went wild.

But no matter how well tied up I was, my body just hurt and I didn’t think I’d get untied.

“Look at this stupid kid. He doesn’t even know he’s tied to a sacred object and is causing a ruckus?”

“ㅋㅋ Even if you do that, it won’t work and you’ll just be wasting your energy. Let’s go quickly and get ‘that’.”

“Yeah. I thought I was going to die from the noise while I was carrying ‘that’. Finally, I’m dealing with it. ”

The adults went back to where they came from, took out another box from inside, and placed it in the glass container.

A familiar crying sound was heard inside.

“Meow! Meow! Meow!”

Ah. No. Please, just that one.

“No!!! Don’t touch him!!!!!”

I hadn’t even touched it yet, but I knew instinctively.

Now they are thinking of killing that cat too.

I was angry at him.

“Just touch me!!! Don’t touch that kid!!!!!”

But they chewed on my words, laughed at me, opened the box and showed me the cat.

A familiar, black-furred cat. To others, it was a symbol of misfortune, but to me, it was a cat that brought happiness.

The cat sees me and starts to cry, putting its paw against me as if it is happy.

“Meow! Meow! Meow!”

“Shut up, you little beast!!”

Kwaku kwaku kung.

But one adult who didn’t like the sight of it grabbed the box containing the cat and shook it back and forth.

Because of that, when the cat finished shaking the box by bumping into various things inside, it would whine and collapse in a corner of the box.

“Ah… … .”

It was all my fault.

Someone like me was born, and someone like me messed with that bitch to try and make a killing.

Because of me, my parents and friends died, and my cat was going to die.

An adult took the microphone and spoke to me.

“You, aren’t you familiar with Schrödinger’s cat? Well, it’s okay if you don’t know. I was going to explain it here anyway, whether you know or not. To summarize Schrödinger’s cat, it’s an experiment where a cat is put in a poisonous box for an hour and checked whether it’s alive or dead after an hour. And when the cat is in the box, it checks whether the cat is in a superposition of two states: alive and dead. I don’t know what that means either, so let’s just skip it. Now, can you guess what we’re going to do this time? ”

As expected… … As expected… … .

“예상 같은 소리 하네 씹년들이 봊까라 그래!! 너 같은 새끼들은 내가 나가기만 하면 주스로 갈아서 마셔줄 거다!!!”

“Ah. By the way, even if you open your mouth and talk like that, we won’t be able to hear you, so keep that in mind.”

They laughed at me from inside the glass container as if they expected me to do this.

The box containing the cat was locked tightly so that it could not be opened, and one person pressed the button.

pop.

A small explosion was heard from inside the box. It was probably that poison I mentioned earlier.

If this continues, the cat will die. Whether it lives or dies, if you don’t take it out right now, the cat will die.

I was already so exhausted that I would die if I stayed like this for 10 minutes.

It needs to be taken out and treated quickly.

“Please, save me!!! Please!!! Please, save that cat!!!!”

But my voice did not reach them.

“Oh my goshㅠOh my goshㅠ. Please, save himㅠㅠ.”

I pleaded with tears in my eyes.

But they sat there watching me calmly, as if they would only take it out after an hour.

I wanted to kill them.

But I didn’t have the strength to do that, and there was no reason for it to be like that.

[Constellation, ‘The Corpse of the Falling World’ looks at you.]

[Constellation, show me the contract of the backdoor that ‘Corpse of the Falling World’ gave you.]

[The constellation, ‘The Corpse of the Falling World’, says that he can save the cat if he makes a contract.]

[Constellation, ‘The Corpse of the Falling World’ informs that a contract is possible if you just answer with words.]

[Would you like to sign the contract?]

[Yes / No.]

[Constellation, ‘The Corpse of the Falling World’ asks you to save the cat.]

[Constellation, ‘The Corpse of the Falling World’ looks at you.]

Yeah, that was it.

I had the opportunity to become an incarnation.

And if I become an incarnation, I can gain the power to take revenge on them.

I looked at the glass plates that appeared before my eyes and shouted softly.

‘Yes, I will.’

Then light enveloped me.

I made up my mind to kill them.

[Stigmata, the ‘power to protect’ is activated.]
