It was so stupid. It was so foolish. In the first place, it should not have been left as it was after creating such a monstrosity. It should have been burned in time.

A hint of hesitation that came from the residual heat after the anger was burned away. Avoidance of responsibility. Escapism. A careless and defenseless response. This was the result of complacency and carelessness.

Suddenly, I felt wronged. What on earth had she been feeling and coming to this remote mountainside? And how could she have invaded my most secret space without leaving a trace?

Let’s be calm. Maybe it’s all a lie that you saw the black crystal and took a piece of it. Maybe it’s a lie to fool you, to provoke and shake you up again.

… No. If that’s the case, then it doesn’t explain why Yu-hee-ah knows about its existence. And that palm. What if that scar that won’t heal easily really came from taking that black thing?

The guilt and confusion that came from having someone else find out about the huge mistake he had made, and the resentment and anger toward Yoo Hee-ah for stealing the truth without permission.

There are questions about her mysterious actions and intentions, which are now being revealed as truths that were kept hidden.

Shihyuk couldn’t control himself as he was overcome by waves of thoughts and emotions.

In his head, question marks continued one after another, but there was not a single clear answer to any of them. In the midst of the rapidly changing situation, all he could express was his emotions.

Funnily enough, it was Yoo Hee-ah, who started it all, who saved this revolution from the waves.

“Uh-huh. I like that expression… . Annoyance, anger, shame, self-reproach… . When I look at it, my stomach feels prickly and hot… . I like that kind of Si-hyuk, but please don’t think of anything else when you’re in front of me… . I want you to focus only on me right now… .”

For a moment, my throat felt eerie and hot, and then a tingling sensation came over me.

As his reddened vision brightened again and he returned to reality, Shihyuk felt the blood leaking out from near his Adam’s apple flowing down along his sternum.

It was because her sharp nails scratched across his neck and the delicate flesh.

Shi-hyeok, who suddenly came to his senses, suddenly saw Yu-hee-ah in his eyes, very excited. Her pure white skin, as if she had put lotus on white porcelain, was moist and pink from the bridge of her nose to both cheeks. Unlike her cool body temperature, she was exhaling hot breath.

“… … .”

“Yeah… , it’s good to be together, but it’s also okay to try to break each other like this… . It’s not bad… . Okay. That’s it… . Is it okay to put a little more strength in your hand… ? I’ll accept everything about Sihyuk… . Okay. Come on… .”

Even as he grabbed her by the collar and strangled her, she seemed completely unfazed. Rather, at this moment, she was whispering words of seduction so hot that others would have mistakenly thought they were a couple courting each other.

Sura was persistent. She was like a goblin’s needle stuck to a sweater, and she never let go of her obsession with Sihyuk until the very end.

He was hanging on to the half of the soul he had found. A symbol like a child bullying his partner. Yoo Hee-ah’s intentions were obvious.

I don’t want to end it like this. I want to continue to get his attention.

It seems like they are acting according to plan, but in reality, they are impulsive and spontaneous. They start and end with a negative view of the world and an overwhelming ‘me’ that leaves no trace even if chewed. And they act in a self-destructive manner in proportion to that.

Shihyuk was completely fed up. The side branches were different, but that behavior, that impulse. Yoo Hee-ah – her past self was following him like a shadow.

I tried to release my hand and step back, but I was blocked. Instead, she was now holding onto Shihyuk. She held onto his wrists, which were holding onto my collar and the back of my neck, tightly, and wouldn’t let go.

It was hard to believe how such strength came from those slender arms, and she was pulling Shihyuk with incredible strength.

“… Please let go.”

“Yeah… Are you quitting…? It’s too bad… Can’t we stay like this just a little longer…?”

Yoo Hee-ah clings to him as he tries to shake her off. Since the difference in strength was almost non-existent, they remained stuck.

Her eyes that had been spreading darkness were once again covered by her hair, and she returned to her usual appearance, and pitifully refused Shihyuk’s request.

It was an annoyingly shameless attitude as if nothing had happened.

“… What are you going to do with that thing you took?”

“Well… . Secret… .”

“Bring it. It’s the negativity I created, so I should shake it off myself.”

“Hit, I don’t like it… . The person who picked it up is the owner… .”

Thud. A murderous sound came out of Si-hyuk’s mouth, who could not stand to see that foolish attitude. The balance of power between the man and woman, which had been tense and tense, was broken by that anger, and he was finally able to escape from Yoo Hee-ah’s grasp.

My wrists and fingers, where I had been held, were throbbing, and the wound on my neck felt like it was festering.

She was no different. The training suit that had been tied around her neck was stretched out and her long, white neck was completely exposed, and the necklace she was wearing dangled and jangled.

The hands and wrists, the skin was rubbed and pulled, turning red.

Unlike Shi-hyuk, who frowned slightly, Yoo Hee-ah caressed the red mark he left behind as if she loved it. Like a virgin who spent her first night with her lover, she kissed her swollen wrist, tracing the traces of her past passion.

The sound of wet lips and flesh touching and then falling apart was strangely erotic. Shihyuk paid no attention to the flirtatious gestures. Instead, his anger grew.

“What do you want?”

“Yeah, haha, I don’t know what you’re talking about… .”

“You didn’t reveal your true feelings just to charm me, or the truth just to tease me.”

Yoo Hee Ah is spontaneous and impulsive, but she is not stupid. The beast that had been pretending to be a small animal in front of him until now showed its teeth and showed its greed for delicious flesh.

There must be a reason why he suddenly took off his mask and revealed his corruption. Shi-hyuk was curious about the reason.

“What do you want from me?”

“… … .”

At the sight of Sihyuk’s glaring eyes, she pursed her lips as if in thought, then opened her mouth – and quickly closed it again as if swallowing the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

In the end, without saying anything, Yuhee Ah just smiled. It was a painful yet sweet smile.

“There isn’t anything in particular… .”

“That’s a lie.”

“Hmm, really… . Hehe, Dan”… ?!”Really… .”

Suddenly, a weak, drawn-out voice was heard from behind him, and a white hand protruded from between his armpits and wrapped itself around his waist.

Just like today, when she surprised Shihyuk.

When did that happen? Just a moment ago, we were facing each other over there. [Magic]? [Skill]? But, she probably can’t open the [Status Window] like me.

While he was flustered, a languid voice was heard from behind him.

“Don’t try to push me away too hard… ?”

“… … .”

Shihyuk swallowed his words.

“I know… . You can’t deny this… . Even though he’s rejecting me now, Sihyuk can never abandon me… . Just like I am… . We are clearly drawn to each other. No matter how much Sihyuk shouts that they are different, white and black are only a difference in darkness. The two can become the same at any time. ”

“… … .”

White hands caress him stickily. They feel his stomach, trace each curve of his abs with their fingers. Tickle his ribs, scratch gently with their nails, and then hug him tightly again.

“Don’t worry. What. I swear I won’t do anything with that crystal for now. As long as Shihyuk doesn’t run away or hide from me, I’ll just hold my breath ‘right now’. So… , please stay with me, right there, always… ?”

It was a declaration of war, a fresh confession, foreshadowing a new war.

Sura never retreats from the battlefield. Since Shihyuk’s defense was stronger than expected, Yuhee-ah, who thought that she would not be able to easily break him down, changed her offensive to a long-term war.

He was declaring that he would drop it slowly, very slowly.

“… … .”

Yu-hee-ah has this much power and darkness. Her thoughts, her values. She has never taken proper action until now. It was easy to guess that she was probably on the verge of becoming a [villain] or was already active as a [villain].

But Shihyuk could not refuse that declaration. It was both a treaty and a threat.

As long as he doesn’t kick her out, she’ll stay still. She’ll stay silent until she drops him. That’s what Yuhee-ah was saying.

What would happen if she were to be released into the world and run wild? Moreover, Yu Hee-ah even had the mistakes she had made.

Could I create something different from the darkness I felt that day? Even if I somehow managed to create something, could I stop Asura who had the black in his hand? Even if I could stop him, how many people would fall?

The temptation of Yoo Hee-ah, who had suffered the same pain and had the same deficiencies, was already a curse and a magic to Si-hyuk. His body and soul wanted and yearned for her.

It was instinct. He blocked it with reason and emotion, but it was probably going to continue to try to drag Shihyuk into the swamp.

That desire was like a bottle of expensive liquor shaken in front of a thirsty drunkard, the last straw of a fool who had squandered his entire fortune, the last cigarette of a smoker after a hard day, or the insides of a young girl shown to a woman-starved nympho.

She will keep him sad and sick.

but.

“… Can you swear to me?”

“I swear on my ideals and goals… . Unless Shihyuk wants it or pushes me away… , I won’t do anything… .”

If you just endure it yourself, if you just keep resisting this temptation.

“… I will believe you.”

Nothing happens.

“Aha, in the future too… well, please… ?”
