Linda is a fist-swinging fighter with brown hair and brown eyes.

Agnes, with her bright blonde hair and blue eyes, gives off the aura of nobility.

Lastly, the wizard Flora with short pink hair and pink eyes.

These people were all targets and heroines of this game.

It was an inappropriate title to call them supporting actors since they were actually playing the game to watch them. Yeah, it would be better if I said he was the lead role.

However, the lead and supporting roles always change depending on the person’s perspective.

If Kylon had still been playing the game, they would have been the main characters in the story because he would have taken them to see the game.

But that doesn’t mean that’s the case now, so it’s irrelevant.

What was important was why they were here.

I heard that Kylon sent it back, but I wondered if this was also the goddess’s trick, so I dropped my shaking pupils and groaned.

He lowered his head as if in pain, and immediately Kailon’s hand reached out.

“Veronica? What’s wrong?”

“Ah, ah, ah? why? Huh?”

“No, I called several times but there was no answer.”

“Well, I did… ? … Sorry.”

I lowered my head and groaned at his words that seemed to shake me awake.

I bruised myself and sighed, wondering what on earth was happening. At the end, I shook my head vigorously from side to side to come to my senses.

“What’s going on? What did you see?”

“Uh, uh, I think those kids are here, but why, why are they here… ”

The pain of falling came to mind.

My body was shaking and I even felt chills.

The trauma I had received from the king was soothed by the thought that I would be safe with Kylon, but this trauma was of a different nature.

Even if Kylon was by my side, I was traumatized by the fear that if the opportunity came someday, Kylon’s gaze might turn to me the moment I was sold.

That’s probably why my body is shaking so much.

why? Even before I could ask that question, my body was crying out that I didn’t want to go through that kind of pain anymore.

What happens if a person falls on the floor?

The head is the heaviest among the bodies, so it falls head first. If it falls head first and breaks, it would be more comfortable and fatal. However, humans were creatures that could not die comfortably.

The essence of falling death was that the neck was broken, blood vessels were tangled and broken, bones were broken and cracked, and the entire body was in disarray and slowly dying.

Many people make the choice to commit suicide by thinking that they only need to take one step, but in fact, such a method causes pain for so long that some people end up dying after being taken to the hospital.

And remaining conscious during the time of pain was also a problem.

How can I know so well?

Why do I know so well? I knew that fact, but I didn’t want to think about it, so I shook my head.

As I was catching my breath, Kylon groaned and spoke to me.

“That… I was told to go back to hypnosis before, but I guess the hypnosis stone broke and the effect disappeared.”

My eyes widened as I heard Kylon’s voice say what he guessed.

Why does that stone break? Without any reason to spend much time answering this question, a scene that reminded me of, “Ah,” appeared before my eyes.

Just look at me. I confidently said this, and at the same time, the image of the hypnotic stone falling to the floor and scattering into pieces by my hand, came to mind, and I felt like I was sweating.

Perhaps because he knew it was my fault, Kylon couldn’t say anything strongly and just whispered to me.

“I think they came looking for us, what should we do?”

If “ stays secret like this, won’t he just go on his own? If I weren’t here, I would have gone to the ninth village… ”

“What if it comes from another store? Aren’t you trying to come in here? It’s getting closer?”

I glanced up at Kailon’s words. Then, I could clearly see them looking out the window of the store getting closer.

Do not come! Even if I wanted to shout, there was no way they would easily listen to me.

If you heard that voice in the first place, you’re sure to be here, so there’s no reason not to come, so there’s nothing to say.

He groaned that even if he left the store quickly or hid, he would get caught.

First of all, Kailon’s hair was too bright. Furthermore, it was so big that even if it was crushed and eaten, it seemed like it would be caught right away.

It was a body that was not only large, but also very well-muscled, so you couldn’t help but notice it.

Kailon let out a groan and put down his fork.

“… I’ll go and come back.”

“Uh, uh… ? Well, then what about me?”

Stay here? alone? Isn’t that a bit much?

As he looked at me with that expression, Kailon made an embarrassed expression for a moment, then sighed, bit his lip once as if he was confused, and let go.

“… I’ll just talk about it here.”

“Uh, um… Okay.”

“I will return it safely. If you happen to bring him, tell him first.”

“To bring you… ?”

“Because he may have come to apologize. Oh, if you don’t want to receive an apology, I’ll just say it myself and come back.”

“Uh, um… ”

I fell silent for a moment. I had no choice but to worry.

So, after narrowing my brows and thinking for a while, I finally made a decision.

“Ah, okay. If you came here to apologize… ”

“Okay, I’ll come quickly.”

Kylon said that and carefully stood up.

When he left, he said ‘I’m eating first’ and left.

Food is usually eaten before it gets cold. While thinking about that, I sighed and moved the fork.

*

Suddenly, I got up from the chair and went outside.

What used to be full of noisy tables turned into a village scene with buildings lined up the moment you passed one door.

It was a natural situation, but strangely enough, I felt burned inside because I didn’t want to face the situation itself.

I used the hypnosis stone to force it to return, and the moment the hypnosis stone disappeared, it seemed to stop spinning and return right here.

As soon as I left the store, the faces of the three heroines who were trying to enter the store caught my eye.

A person suddenly came out from where he was about to come in and looked surprised.

And as time went by, the moment I realized it was me, I tried to keep that expression and express joy, but it soon changed to a tearful expression and I lowered my head.

“Kylon… ”

It was Agnes who spoke first.

Everyone was already aware of the situation.

They knew that they had told me everything they had done through hypnosis, and I heard it all.

There was no need for a misunderstanding. Here, through hypnosis, you only heard the answers you wanted to hear. The moment I made an excuse, it only got ugly.

So there was no reason to make excuses here. Furthermore, there was no misunderstanding.

I looked at them with a cold expression, gave them a glance, and then walked away.

When I entered the alley right next to the store, the girls followed me into the alley without saying a word.

“Why did you come back? What shame?”

He asked a cold and sharp question. If the hypnosis had all been lifted, I would remember and know everything at this moment, but the question of why I came back remained.

Then Linda’s lips trembled, then she clenched her fists, lowered her head, and spoke as if she was shouting.

“I’m sorry… ! I’m sorry, I came to say I’m sorry… ! I know I don’t have anyone to look at after doing such an irreversible thing, but I wanted to at least apologize to Kailon for sending me away without saying anything… Well, I also want to apologize to the saint… ”

“Apple?”

If she apologized, it was right to take her to Veronica. Because an apology was originally a story that had to be resolved through discussion with the person involved.

He also generously said that he could bring Veronica as long as it was an apple.

So, it could be said that it was right to take him with him.

But even then, I had doubts.

Do you really want to apologize? Did I really come here because I felt guilty?

If you take her to Veronica without checking those things, you never know what will happen. He could either struggle thinking he had nothing to lose, or he could curse harshly and leave with the intention of isolating himself, so I had to filter it out carefully.

But how do you filter it out? There is no hypnosis stone right now.

You can’t find out your true feelings. If that’s the case, it might be better to just send it back.

After making such a sour expression and thinking about it for a while, should I just tell him to fuck off? I had myself doing it.

But soon the thought stopped.

Didn’t Veronica tremble when she saw these three heroines just before eating?

“Apple… ”

He repeated the words as if muttering.

He lifted his right hand and touched it with his left hand.

As much as Veronica was scared, as much as she did what she did to Veronica, I wanted to hit her at least once.

I had to do it that way, because when I went to apologize to Veronica later, I felt like Veronica would be embarrassed rather than scared.

Wouldn’t it be better to be embarrassed than to be scared?

“If you really feel sorry, just give me a slap on the cheek. Otherwise, go back.”

You may be thinking that when you sent it back in a cold way before, it would have returned calmly.

But that was none of my business. If you want to sincerely apologize, you have to accept that much pain.
