episode_0135

A voice that cannot reach you even if you scream at the top of your lungs.

I was mad at myself for being incompetent and unable to do anything in this dire situation, and before I knew it, hot tears were flowing from the corner of one of my eyes.

My intense emotions reached a peak where I couldn’t control myself.

Grumbling..

{A Piece of Sloth}, which had been watching this pitiful scene, quietly approached me as I cried and spoke to me in a whisper.

“Even when you tricked me and took all my power… I didn’t hate you or hate you.”

＂If only I could have made my existence known to you like that..＂

A sincere voice without a single lie confuses me.

＂If my existence was helpful to you, I was satisfied with that..＂

Those eyes looking at me feel more faint.

＂But you know… Dahein.＂

“Now I want to be with you too.”

A {sculpture of sloth} in the shape of a beret gently approaches and wipes away the flowing tears.

Her expression, seen again, looked so sad, and she seemed more lonely than anyone else.

It was hard to guess what kind of state he must have in order to make such a sad expression.

“Two souls cannot exist in one body.”

＂It’s just being absorbed into a strong soul..＂

＂Dahein now… Just like you.＂

Sigh..

{A piece of sloth} that places its small hand on Dahein’s chest.

“Either I absorb the souls of the world and become one like Ber.”

“Or… I will disappear forever and disappear completely, bringing back the world.”

“It’s one of the two.”

He doesn’t open his mouth willingly when she says it, as if she’s waiting for a choice.

“But you know..”

“No matter how much you hate and resent me, I want to remain by your side in this life.”

Why?

Even in a situation where Sein is sucked into a pure white bed.

Looking at the eyes of {a piece of sloth} looking at me… I can’t decide whether it’s right or wrong.

What if everything she’s said so far is true?

What if everything I did in that illusion of the past was true?

The {Piece of Sloth} that had no choice but to act like this might have been an ordinary girl in love who had done nothing wrong.

Just like this desperate feeling I had when I loved and liked Sein.

Perhaps all of this… may be the karma I committed in the past, but my judgment has been clouded for a long time.

Even though I don’t understand the past me who tried to take that power by using the person I loved…

When the heart of {Piece of Sloth} that even I love again is conveyed…

Her soul, which was showing the appearance of a worldly person, soon completely disappeared into the pure white bed.

I just had to watch it helplessly with my own two eyes.

Even though I was crying because of the strong emotions, I felt sick to my stomach and my hands and feet were shaking as I tried to understand this confusing situation.

“Don’t worry, Da-Hin.. Her soul didn’t disappear either, it became one with me.”

“So I can be with you too.”

{Piece of Sloth}, who was wiping away her tears and gently cupping her cheek, showed a bitter smile… and then gradually transformed into the appearance of Sein.

Perhaps {Piece of Sloth} had called me here to explain the whole situation and convince me.

Even if we don’t show this scene…

Ver..

No, if it were {Piece of Sloth}, it could forcibly absorb Sein’s soul and reveal her behavior without my knowledge.

But {Piece of Sloth} didn’t do that.

By revealing herself, she persuaded me to recognize and accept this whole situation.

Although he is Ber, {a piece of sloth}.. And is it because he believed that Sein would recognize, accept, and love his existence?

So my vision becomes blurry.

***

A warm blanket grazes your skin, announcing the morning.

A familiar yet lovely scent.

The soft yet rough feel of your hands.

＇Sainnim..＇

Naturally, I could guess that the owner of this feeling was Sein, so I did not reject her warmth and scent and lay down very peacefully.

It was clearly a moment when a happy smile appeared as if everything had been forgotten.

＇..??＇

At that moment, all of my calm senses became sharp due to this chilling magical power felt through my {monster-like senses}.

Flash!

I quickly stand up to check the surroundings.

＂Se, Sein??＂

I still vividly remember the contents of the dream I had a while ago.

In the form of Ber, she called herself {a piece of sloth}…

Even the moment when Sein’s soul was disappearing came to mind very clearly.

“Are you awake? Dahuinnim.”

The silky silver hair of Sein, who welcomed me, came into my field of vision.

Through those beautiful, clear golden eyes, I was convinced that all of this was real.

＂Sain!!＂

The moment I saw Sein, I tried to hug him, but…

The {monster-like sensation} that came upon me stopped my thoughts.

That… wasn’t the magic power of Sein that I knew.

Taaat!

With a quick decision, he shows a wary expression, stands up more quickly, and takes a step back in an instant.

My body moved before I even thought about it.

The morning air at the end of winter feels chilly…

The large, cozy bed, as well as Bernim’s self-portraits hanging everywhere, indicated that this was the residence of Duke {Bainscher}.

＂Who are you.. you.＂

I remained calm and opened my mouth quietly.

Through the dazzlingly bright sunlight at the window.

With her beautifully flowing silver hair and soft golden eyes as if she had just woken up, she was the image of someone from the world.

Nevertheless, because the events that had happened were so vivid, I needed to be more careful.

Obviously… {monomistic senses} did not refer to this woman as Sein-sama…

Strong.. Strong..

Is it because I suddenly stood up?

I felt like I was getting a headache, and when I felt some symptoms of {magic depletion}, I started to feel dizzy.

I hold my furrowed brow with one hand and struggle to come to my senses.

＂Dahuin.. Where are you hurting?

Contrary to expectations, a mysterious entity approaches the world, showing its usual behavior.

Sein slowly got out of the bed as if he had been sleeping with me. He quickly came up to me and immediately grabbed my hand and supported me with a worried expression on his face.

Hot…

Watching Seinnim act like he’s going to take me to the doctor right away…

Now I was still confused as to whether this place was real or if I was still in a dream.

Everything is dizzy and embarrassing.

Even though it is full of a lot of information that has not yet been organized, I decided that I could not trust her, so I tried to shake off her grasping hand and stepped back.

Tuk!!

A callous action that seems to draw a line that I would never have shown if it were my usual self.

How much of an impact it must have had on her.

Sein, who was crying with a sad expression he had never shown before, began to look at me.

“Uh, why are you staying away from me?”

“Do you hate me now?”

The [elaborate flame ring] seen on the ring finger of her one hand…

It was definitely the ring I had given as a gift.

Nevertheless, I needed to drive her away coldly in order to make a calm judgment.

There was no way he was trying to appease me with a disgusting act using the face of the world.

The moment Dahyun was about to open her mouth…

Shake it off!!

Someone opened the door and suddenly started barging in.

Squeak… The mysterious girl slowly appears with the sound of a door moving.

＇Be, Ver?＇

I couldn’t help but be surprised.

Clearly, it was none other than Berr who came into my field of vision.

I started rubbing my eyes repeatedly in an attempt to stop my frozen thoughts, but I soon became convinced once again that it was not in vain.

One space.

Sein and Ber… the two people coexisted together.

Ber’s body was not like an illusion or illusion.

It had a perfect body that could pick up and move objects.

I could feel it.

‘How on earth is this…’

Moreover, a stable wave of dark-blue magic power that can be vividly felt through {monomistic senses}.

It was shaking not only in Sein-sama but also in Ver’s body.

＂Dahein.. are you awake?＂

In this incomprehensible situation, Ver tries to save Da-hyun by approaching her with a calm expression and scanning her from the bottom up.

An eerie yet beautiful light green gaze that seems to see through everything…

I instinctively sensed danger in Ber’s actions, so without a moment’s hesitation, I armed both arms with titanium slime and retreated behind the wall, remaining on high alert.

I want to run to Ber right now and ask him what he did to Sein, but…

Se-in, who was visible in front of him, looked fine and was lying on the bed without knowing what to do, so it was not easy to approach him.

All we need at this moment is information…

“What on earth is going on?”

The word “confused” was truly an expression created for times like this. My mind was so complicated.

Dahyin’s appearance as he tried to move further and further away from them, maintaining a triangular confrontation reminiscent of the Bermuda Triangle, was quite threatening, and his eyes were full of distrust.

“Dahuin, please calm down for now.”
