When Isabel heard that Kyle had left the room and was heading somewhere, she ran out.

Isabel also knew that she was becoming increasingly crazy.

Is it me that is wrong, is Kyle that is wrong, or is it the world itself that is wrong?

Everything was just confusing.

So finally.

Just once.

I wanted to talk to Kyle when I was still a little more conscious.

I wasn’t particularly sure.

This is because she has already confirmed several times that Kyle does not love her.

Just as much as he treats Luna.

No more, no less, just that much.

That was all Isabelle wanted from Kyle.

I can hope for this much too.

What do I have less than that woman?

There was impatience in Isabel’s steps.

When she finally encountered Kyle walking down the hallway, Isabel finally realized something.

The fact that everything I had imagined in my head until a moment ago was just my own foolish illusion.

— To Luna.

— Just to check the status. So get out of the way.

The way you look at yourself, the way you speak, your voice.

Everything was as cold as frost.

‘why… Just me again… !’

I couldn’t understand.

Not another woman, but Luna Winfred.

A trashy woman who ruined Kyle’s life, not much different from her.

You shouldn’t worry about a woman like that.

You can’t look at me like that and dare say anything about that woman.

Toouk—

At that moment, I heard a sound as if something inside me was breaking.

It was impulsive.

He also hurled verbal abuse at Kyle with bloodshot eyes.

I also let out the dirty feelings I had kept in my heart.

I begged for forgiveness in an unreasonable way.

Everything was just impulsive.

‘What on earth have I done… ‘

You have to apologize.

You have to say that everything you just said was absolutely not your truth.

but…

‘To be honest… is not it… ?’

No, I definitely meant it.

All the emotions he poured out were his complete sincerity, not mixed with any lies.

It was then.

— I didn’t know. I can’t believe you are that serious.

A deep, deep voice pierced my ears.

And at the same time, a strange feeling of anticipation rose from a corner of my heart.

Did Kyle ever realize his true feelings?

Did he convey his feelings of longing for Kyle’s affection even as he went crazy?

perhaps…

Maybe I too…

However, the reality before my eyes was cold.

— You want to be forgiven?

Kyle laughed.

That smile was cruel yet terrifyingly beautiful.

— Then it would have been better for me to die then.

Kyle urged me to die in a calm voice.

I felt as if my breath was taken away by that cool recitation.

Isabel let out a trembling breath, took it in, and let it out again.

— If he had died then, I would have felt at least a moment of sympathy.

The blade hidden in the words cut mercilessly into my head.

At the same time, deep pain flashed in Isabel’s blue eyes.

I wanted to cover my ears right away, but I couldn’t.

Suddenly I became really curious.

Does Kyle really want his own death?

My heart was beating irregularly.

No, I don’t even know if my heart is beating properly right now.

— What can I offer?

– I do not need.

— So just die when you get the chance. Or even pretend to be dead.

The words pouring out hurt me so much that I can’t breathe.

I felt sick, as if my stomach had melted.

Isabelle gasped, her shoulders shaking.

And at the same time, the question was solved.

Oh, Kyle really wants me dead.

I am just that to Kyle.

My heart started beating like crazy.

My pounding heart felt like it was going to break through my ribs.

— Don’t even think about breaking away from the past or changing.

One last word to not change.

That one word set Isabelle’s reason on fire.

Isabelle, who had been tilting her head, stopped trembling.

Then he raised his head.

While you have changed.

You, who whispered love to me, turned so cruel.

Tears poured out.

His face was a mess and he was sobbing as if he was vomiting blood.

Isabel’s voice as she questioned Kyle was quite cruel, as if it were someone engulfed in fire.

The face was distorted, stained with deep fear, isolation, anxiety, and despair.

It was then.

— If you’re curious, would you like to hear it?

Isabel nodded as if fascinated.

Because I was truly curious as to why Kyle had changed so much.

Then Kyle told an unbelievable story in a soft voice, as if he were reading a children’s song.

Kyle’s tone was calm, as if he was talking to a third person.

But Isabel instinctively realized that it was Kyle’s own story.

When I realized that, my whole body felt weak, like a machine that had been turned off.

I couldn’t move a finger, feeling helpless as if all my senses were suddenly empty.

— Hope is crap.

— I got engaged and got married, but instead of becoming happy, my life was ruined.

Isabelle looked pale and stared at Kyle as if she were about to die.

But Kyle didn’t stop.

As he looked at himself, his eyes were filled with a deep sense of pleasure.

My stomach hurt and I was out of breath.

Every time I took a breath, I felt terrible pain, as if there were dozens of needles stuck in my lungs.

— The woman who hated her husband all along ended up killing him by putting poison in a teacup.

— By procuring with your own hands a poison that inflicts the most terrible pain.

The past, which she could not shake off even if she wanted to, once again tightened its grip around Isabelle’s neck.

I couldn’t breathe, as if I was trapped in a transparent vacuum.

I opened my lips to scream, but my whole body remained frozen.

Driven to the edge of a cliff, Isabel desperately gasped for breath.

— That day, for the second time in his life, he felt hope.

— A strong hope that one can finally be liberated from this place.

My heart was turning black and rotting.

The world in front of my eyes spun and I fell to the floor.

Kyle’s anger was violent.

Every word pouring over my head brought back memories of the past.

My fingertips were shaking.

The terrible cold that ripped at my skin mercilessly scratched my skin.

— Isn’t it strange?

The sunlight shining down, the sound of birds chirping, and the smell of grass passing by the tip of my nose.

Everything except Kyle turned pure white.

Kyle didn’t move from where he was standing.

He watched Isabelle, who was writhing in pain, with eyes without any warmth.

— So where on earth did Kyle go, whom you missed so much?

No, no, no.

The Kyle I remembered…

Kyle, who said he loved me until the end, is now in front of my eyes…

– still.

There was no voice coming out, as if a fireball had settled down in my throat.

I hurriedly raised my fingernails and scratched my throat, but all that came out was a sound that I couldn’t tell if it was a moan or a sob.

And at that moment, Kyle’s tightly closed lips opened.

— Do you still see me as Kylo?

Fishy blood flowed back.

As my reason crumbled into pieces, my thoughts stopped.

With that face, with that voice, it’s not Kyle?

My stomach turned over at the sheer sense of futility.

Afterwards, fear, like an endless abyss, eroded reason.

Blue eyes trembled in fear.

“Why are you so surprised?”

Kyle said while looking at Isabelle.

“You killed him.”

That violent voice passed through my eardrums and shook my head.

“So accept it.”

Kyle turned his back without any hesitation.

Isabel stopped breathing.

He stared blankly into space, like someone who had forgotten how to use his facial muscles.

The unfocused eyes shattered into pieces.

“Lie… … ”

Kyle disappears? That’s nonsense.

Yes, Kyle just spouted a mean lie to cause pain to himself.

Let’s not be fooled by empty lies.

never… You must never be agitated.

“Of course, it’s a lie.”

A giggle escaped me.

Isabel sparsely sparsely spat out fragmented words in a broken voice.

****

“… Tsk.”

I clicked my tongue and shortened my stride.

A fairly peaceful noon was thrown into chaos by one Isabelle.

There was no need to hurt Isabel so much, but I have no regrets.

No, I actually feel refreshed.

From now on, you can never say nonsense about loving me in front of me again.

With that alone, I feel like I’ve achieved something.

even.

[Scenario progress: 80%]

The more harsh words were thrown at Isabel, the more it started to rise, and before we knew it, the progress rate had settled into the 80% range.

The unexpected result made me feel a little better.

If there’s one thing I’m worried about, it’s the possibility that Isabel, who is distracted, will end up making an extreme choice…

‘Is that possible?’

Isabel does not commit suicide.

No, I can’t.

Although she hates to admit it, Isabelle’s feelings for Kyle are sincere.

So, I will survive until the end and do whatever it takes to prove that what I said was a lie.

Because Isabel’s regret is not that light.

The more Isabel goes crazy in the process, the better.

That’s because the progress rate will increase quickly.

Above all, hasn’t it already happened?

I sighed and erased as much as I could from the previous memories that filled my mind.

After a while.

“Please meet me.”

“Oh, please wait a moment.”

The priest who recognized my face bowed his head once and entered the interrogation room.

And soon the priest returned and told me to come in with a smiling face.

“This way.”

As we followed the priest, we entered spaces that were reminiscent of prisons.

I frowned at the damp and musty air that filled the space.

After walking for a while, we arrived in front of a door.

When the priest turned the doorknob, the door opened with a clanging sound.

Through the gap in the open door, I could see a fairly large space decorated like a room.

Luna, who was sitting in the corner looking out the window, turned her head with a surprised face.

“Kyle… !”

Luna stood up with a trembling voice.

and.

“Visiting time is 10 minutes.”

The priest announced the time in a businesslike voice and left, closing the door.

“Kyle, what’s going on here… ”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, it’s okay.”

Luna smiled shyly and asked back.

“Were you worried?”

Is it because I was dealing with Isabel just a moment ago?

This level of nonsense felt like a lot of cuteness.

I answered roughly.

“Okay.”

Luna’s blue eyes flashed wildly.

“I’m glad you look fine.”

“Ka, Kyle… ”

“The Duke will be here soon.”

Duke Winfred.

It is said that he, who had been away at the villa for a while, stopped by the imperial palace as soon as he heard that Luna had been taken to the Vatican.

As if the story ended well, the duke, who stayed at the imperial palace for about two days, is now moving to the Vatican.

The thought of seeing that face again makes me gag, but what can I do?

It won’t be long before the progress reaches 100%, so I have no choice but to be patient.

“When that person comes, he will get you out as soon as possible.”

“… Yes.”

“The problem was before that.”

Isabel is out of her mind.

And I decided to scrape Isabelle, who was already going crazy.

He’s probably completely lost his temper by now and is going crazy.

“Isabel Justia.”

“… ”

“You don’t know what she might do to you, so stop eating and drinking for a day or two. Reduce sleep as much as possible and be careful day and night.”

I roughly warned her.

Luna remained silent.

He pursed his lips for a while, then spoke to me in a quiet voice.

“I’ll do as you say.”

“Good. Then I’ll go.”

“Kyle.”

She grabbed my sleeve.

Then he muttered in a voice filled with concern.

“Be careful too.”

You have to be careful.

Until the progress reaches 100%.

Luna smiled brightly.

Her smile, brighter and more innocent than ever, sparkled under the sunlight.

“Thank you for coming.”
