“Player Oh was released from detention?”

    “Yes, that’s right, Chairman.”

    Choi A-hyang, president of the Awakening Kendo Association.

    Following in the footsteps of his father, who was a kendo player, he reached the peak of his professional career in his 20s and served as president of the kendo association in his 30s.

    At the beginning of Aurora’s debut, Chairman Choi A-hyang was personally very interested in Aurora, as some called Aurora ‘post-Choi A-hyang’.

    Dressed in a fine suit and with her long black hair elegantly styled up, she was showing off a virtuous beauty that befits the word beautiful woman.

    “It doesn’t make sense for a kid who was doing well to suddenly do such a crazy thing. Owner, please take a look”

    “Yes, Chairman”

    “Find out exactly what he was doing and why it happened, and shut down all media regarding this incident.”

    “Yes, Chairman, but the news director is complaining that the matter has become too big”

    “Complaint? under. Do you watch that old man whining for money for a day or two? Since it doesn’t matter how much money is spent, it is covered by subtracting it from the media’s cooperation execution expenses. Common sense tells me that if I don’t cover this now, I don’t know how big the loss will be in the future, right? Do I have to point out every single piece of bullshit these old people say?”

    As the Swordsmen’s Association is an organization where awakened people’s interests are concentrated, it has connections that are on a different level from associations run by non-awakened people, and she was now trying to use that to her full potential to cover up the incident.

    “… I’m sorry, Chairman, I’ll take care of it”

    A short-haired secretary who bows to Choi Ah-hyang’s hysterical voice. As if it happened occasionally, her expression was expressionless as she apologized.

    “Phew… no. I was so excited. The owner can take care of it, right? … Let’s go out.”

    “Yes, Chairman, then… ”

    As soon as the secretary, with her back bent at a right angle, leaves the president’s office, she sighs and leans deeply into her chair.

    “Phew… these days, everyone is on drugs and all… Professional sports are ultimately an image business… What happened Aurora… Did you touch that too?”

    She knew long ago that Aurora was secretly using the witch sword. However, the reason I didn’t pay much attention to it was because if I didn’t get caught, my superstar popularity would be maintained, so that was fine, and if I got caught, I would have kept it in oblivion and just cut it out.

    But this was just too much.

    It wasn’t just that he was ‘caught’, but he unilaterally smashed the face of an opposing player who had no intention of attacking and applied a madness debuff at maximum output, causing him to go crazy.

    The hosting party was also confused and confused, resulting in civilian casualties… This is too big a deal to simply frame it as ‘player Oh’s personal deviation’.

    If Aurora had shown her awakening ability alone and lost through foul play, the association would have been more proactive in burying Aurora. Just like when someone was accused of being a sex offender, the school board actively tried to bury him.

    But the situation now was completely different.

    The situation has become too big due to the unprecedented incident of a civilian’s arm being cut off being broadcast live.

    This is not a situation that can be resolved by cutting off Aurora alone.

    So she decided to completely bury this matter at the association level.

    This was not a choice made with the specific purpose of protecting Aurora, but rather because it is obvious that the more the spotlight is focused on Aurora, the more their image deteriorates.

    “Let’s stay still… It would be better if I had tried drugs. Because you can turn your attention in that direction. No, I should keep in mind that if there are even a few cases, I will tie them up with them.”

    Choi Ah-hyang ordered an investigation, thinking it was a performance-enhancing drug or a stimulant for concentration.

    But she didn’t yet know what information her secretary would bring.

    .

    .

    .

    Ding-dong-

    Thump thump thump

    “Ugh, uhhh”

    Ding-dong- Ding-dong-

    Thump thump

    “Nu… nine… ”

    A windy sound came from the rested vocal cords, and a very cracked voice was heard.

    “I am. Shin Yu-hyeon”

    “Uh… uh… ?”

    “First open the door”

    A door that opens smoothly without any hinge noise.

    Aurora’s appearance was beyond words. My lips were swollen and my eyes were bright red from how much I had bitten them.

    “What are you doing? Why am I not receiving calls?”

    She chewed her lip again and glared at me.

    “Did you come… to ridicule me…”

    “No, I’m here to help.”

    I pushed Aurora’s chest and walked into the house. If someone sees that I’m here, I’ll be in trouble.

    “Well, how can I help you… ? omg! Ho, by any chance, is it because we are close friends? To comfort me… … ?”

    She was looking embarrassed with an emotion-filled expression, curling her lips as if asking, ‘Are you here to ridicule me?’

    But I’m sorry, but I didn’t come to comfort you today. It was a final blow.

    There is no sense in not eating a ripe fruit when it is twisting its body and struggling to be eaten.

    If you want to break it, I will break it for you.

    “You did something stupid?”

    My slightly irritated tone tingles through Aurora’s torn chest. Her still hot and wet wound is forced open by my words.

    “Ugh, uh”

    When Aurora is reminded again of what she did, she panics and holds her head. It was still driving her crazy that all her hard work over the past few years had been in vain.

    She had no friends, a lover, a close-knit family, or anything to focus her heart on.

    I was just obsessed with fame. She has only filled the emptiness by acting as Aurora, not herself, through a mask of pretense created by an illusion. But it was destroyed.

    It was none other than her own fault.

    “Does your head hurt? Well, not only did they not just lose, but they became complete trash to the entire nation, and it’s worth the pain. My heart hurts too”

    He looks up at me with moist eyes when I say that he seems to sympathize with his pitiful situation and that my heart also aches.

    I’m sorry, but that’s not what I meant.

    I lifted my chin and looked down at her, and spoke without hiding my contemptuous tone.

    “It breaks my heart that I thought a trashy bastard like you was my friend.”

    “Uh… … ?”

    “At least I acknowledged it because of your kendo skills, but why did you go out to the competition and commit such a despicable foul? No, does it make sense to fail at a domestic level competition, not even a world competition before that?”

    Deep, deep-

    My tongue penetrated her heart and became a sharp dagger, cutting it from the inside.

    “Ugh, ugh, ugh”

    Your head may feel hot and cold, tense and collapse.

    It is a widely known fact through interview articles that Aurora does not have a single family or friend she can rely on. Nevertheless, he said that his dedication to kendo was attractive and even used that as image-making material.

    In any case, to her, being a ‘close friend’ must have meant more to her than she thought. However, that close friend was now despising him and treating him like trash.

    “Why are you crying because you did a good job? Byeongshin bitch. ”

    Her eyes trembled and she trembled with a sense of betrayal. Then she looked at me with half-lit eyes, and then I rushed at her, letting out a scream that wasn’t even a scream.

    When I feel angry, sad, and frustrated, I attack.

    It’s like an elementary school student’s reaction.

    “Aaaaa!!”

    Without a sword or the mental capacity to use Goryu Jutsu… Rushing in recklessly. To relieve that worst, frustrating feeling that I don’t know how to relieve. I pushed her head away with one hand and avoided her arms swinging wildly.

    They say all bitches are the same…

    The reach difference in wingspan is so large that it doesn’t reach at all. Occasionally it touched my arm, but no blow came to my steel body.

    If I can just endure it for a few minutes, I might get tired of it and come to my senses.

    But why should I see that?

    Wow!

    I slapped her in the face. Aurora went beyond turning her head and was hit in the direction her head was turned, falling to the floor.

    “Hehe, hehegeuk?”

    He looked up at me as he fell to the floor, clutching his cheek in shock, as if he had never experienced such a primitive assault before. It must have been an unfamiliar experience to be slapped on the bare cheek by a girl who practiced kendo and was only exposed to refined violence between kendo practitioners.

    “Chi, you said you were a close friend… Sigh… Chi, I’m a close friend… ”

    In the end, Aurora sheds tears, twitching her chin under her lips like a child.

    “Hey you trash bitch. You are my friend? I have never had a bug like you as a friend”

    rattle

    “Oh, no, I’m not trash, I’m not a bug!!”

    “No, you are a bug”

    “Huh, huh, bee… Not Le… ”

    If I were to sympathize with her rather than sympathize with her, she would probably be experiencing similar shock to me when I was accused of being a sex offender.

    It feels like something you have achieved your whole life has disappeared like a bubble.

    It feels like a piece of hot iron is stuck in my chest.

    In my case, there were clearly evil people, so I had someone to pour out my anger on, but now she has no target for her anger.

    Although she was mean and cruel to me, she knew it herself unless she was an imbecile. In the end, all of these misfortunes happened due to one’s own vices.

    At the very moment when he was looking down from the high point of his career, he collapsed and fell into the abyss due to a single mistake he made.

    And that fall is an abyss that can never, ever be climbed again. All of his actions over the past few years are a violation of the unjustifiable use of awakening abilities. A foul that shattered the usual cold but just and fair image of a defenseless opponent.

    At best, he is a rare piece of trash who overcomes his opponent’s childish provocation and, unable to overcome his anger, activates his abilities and thereby blows off the arm of a poor civilian.

    That’s the Aurora now.

    Anger can be a driving force in life. Even if you look at many picaresque revenge films, the reason why the main character, who should have died a long time ago, is alive is anger. But who gets burned by the anger that has lost its target and whose source is unknown?

    Ultimately, it is you.

    When you remove your opponent from the world through revenge, you feel relieved. This is a fact I know because I tried it. However, if the target of revenge is yourself… ?

    Self-hatred, self-hatred.

    You hate yourself, you hate yourself, you try to kill yourself. However, most humans cannot take their own lives.

    It is not a matter of courage, but of the body refusing the commands of the mind.

    Because it’s a living thing. Because they are animals, the instincts imprinted in their genes make it difficult for them to end their own lives.

    Then humans choose the next best option.

    Mental suicide.

    It is a well-known fact that people suffer from various mental illnesses and neuroses due to severe shock.

    I’ll give you a gentle push on the back. So that you can get better at hating yourself.

    “You got hit by a bug, Aurora”

    “I… Me, bee, bee… Reya?”

    “Yeah, it’s trash.”

    “burrs, bugs… waste, trash… Ah, ahaha”

    Aurora is completely out of her mind, lying sprawled on the floor, looking at the ground and shedding tears.

    My heart was pounding.

    This is it.

    A completely different relationship from when I was in high school.

    Unlike then, this time I ended this bitch’s life just as I had planned.

    I am the one looking at you who has fallen.

    I felt sadistic pleasure.

    “What did you say to me? What, tissue? Tsk tsk, then what are you? Rag?”

    She was speechless and unable to respond anymore as she burst out crying.

    I stared at her eyes as the light slowly faded away. That alone was satisfying, but I can’t end it like this.

    I want everything from her.

    Her body, her mind, her loyalty, her soul, her abilities, everything will be consumed.

    So I can’t let it fall apart like this. Even after a day, two days, a week, a year, or ten years, I will still use it as my property.

    I roughly grabbed her shiny hair and forced her to her knees.
