episode_0196

Song Sia was walking through Harlem in New York with Lee Jun-woo, the boss of Crimson Teeth.

“I want to ask you something.”

Lee Jun-woo asked her.

I was able to answer anything I was curious about.

Song Xia even betrayed her father for Lee Jun-woo.

Even her identity as Song Yu-hwan’s daughter was abandoned.

“When graduating from Theia High School. Aegis activities. My contribution was 0… I was always curious about that.”

But Lee Jun-woo ended up asking an unexpected question.

Song Xia froze on the spot.

Expelled from Aegis.

And the fact that his contribution was not recognized at all became the trigger for Lee Jun-woo’s panic.

Song Xia heard about it through the teacher at the nurse’s office.

‘Contribution to club activities. That… I manipulated it all to 0.’

The culprit is Song Xia.

Lee Jun-woo’s eyes were peaceful as he looked at her.

But Song Xia couldn’t come up with any excuse at that moment.

Ahn Yu-min focused solely on field activities and did not pay any attention to documents.

Likewise, it was unlikely that Ha Ye-eun, who had low intelligence and started a business just by looking at paper, was the culprit of the manipulation.

Lee Jun-woo must have already guessed that Song Si-ah, who occasionally helped Lee Jun-woo with his paperwork, was the culprit.

“Do you know who did it?”

At those words, Song Xia felt like she had entered a dead end.

I forced my lips that wouldn’t part to open and answered him.

“That’s… I did that.”

“As expected, it was like that. Well, I didn’t really ask to blame anyone. I was just really curious.”

no.

Lee Jun-woo’s expression was calm as usual.

It was something that became a decisive trigger for panic.

And, it was I who directly hurt him.

He sucked Lee Jun-woo’s blood.

So I could vaguely feel his emotions.

He wasn’t angry.

So Song Xia felt heartbreaking pain and guilt.

“Mi… I’m sorry! It’s all… it’s all your fault! You are the one who got hurt!”

Song Xia screamed.

I wanted to hold Lee Jun-woo’s hand and apologize right then and there.

But you don’t deserve it.

He also handed over Letisane’s legacy to Lee Jun-woo.

Also betraying my father. That identity may have been helpful to Lee Jun-woo, who was the boss of Crimson Teeth.

One fact has not changed.

The truth is that Song Xia caused great harm to the person she loved.

Song Xia knelt on the cold asphalt floor of Harlem.

Blood spread from the wounds on my white, soft knees that were cut into the stone floor.

“I won’t ask you to forgive me. But my apology to you is sincere!”

Sincerity. Song Xia was surprised at those words.

Song Xia still had no feelings towards others.

At most, I have hatred towards my father, Song Yu-hwan.

But it was different when the opponent was Lee Jun-woo.

I had a close relationship with him.

The feeling was much greater than the feeling of thinking about an ordinary lover.

Song Xia wonders why her mother, who did not receive her father’s love, withered and died.

Only now did I feel like I could understand that feeling.

‘I don’t deserve to love Junwoo. But I love you. My life without Junwoo…’

A time before I even fully realized my own feelings.

I clearly remembered the day I manipulated my contribution.

If you just go to Theia Academy.

It was obvious that Lee Jun-woo would reunite with Ahn Yu-min or Ha Ye-eun.

If Song Si-ah knows Lee Jun-woo’s personality.

Even if he had been exiled so miserably, he would have done a favor for the two of them.

In particular, the unchanging gaze towards An Yu-min.

Looking at those eyes was extremely painful for Song Xia.

“It may sound like an excuse… but that was my true intention! Because I liked you…”

Although the words were rambling and completely unorganized, Song Xia told Lee Jun-woo the truth about that time.

Lee Jun-woo’s expression after hearing the whole story was still the same as the first time.

It wasn’t an angry expression or an expression of pity for oneself.

He stretched out his arm and held out his hand.

“There is no need to do this here. Because I just wanted to hear the truth. And soon it will be time for the promised meeting with the Slayer.”

At those words, Song Xia stood up holding Lee Jun-woo’s hand.

Lee Jun-woo took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood flowing down his knees.

That kindness was exactly the same as the sweet Lee Jun-woo that Song Xia first realized her feelings for.

And the blood of that true blood vampire was absorbed into Lee Jun-woo like mana.

“Because of you, I was able to obtain Letisane’s legacy. So let’s end the bad story of exile here.”

Saying that you will forgive yourself.

But Song Xia was not happy.

“I… cannot be forgiven. Hurt you…”

If you want to be forgiven for your sins.

He had to help the unknown Lee Jun-woo by going beyond betraying his father.

If you have real blood, it might be helpful.

If only to receive forgiveness. He could have risked his life.

Worst case. Also killing his biological father, Song Yu-hwan.

“Because I know that what you say is sincere. Stop it now.”

And Song Xia was silent as she watched Lee Jun-woo start walking again.

Just now. The warmth of Lee Jun-woo, who had helped her up from her knees, remained in her hands.

Even though I know I shouldn’t do that.

I wanted to hold his hand again.

‘Someday… if I work hard for Junwoo enough to wash away all my sins…’

Maybe not even affection.

I don’t know if I can get a little bit of his attention.

But soon Song Xia realized.

At first glance, he speaks kindly.

Lee Jun-woo’s attitude towards himself now. Maybe it’s boring, but they’re consistent with their indifference.

At that time, Lee Jun-woo continued speaking.

“Ah. And I have something I must tell you too.”

“What to say…”

“I am now officially dating Hana.”

Song Xia’s heart sank at those words.

I had some guess.

True Opposition’s secretary, Jeong Ji-yoon, also hinted at the strange atmosphere between Lee Jun-woo and Choi Ha-na.

“I’m dating you out of curiosity, not out of simple interest. Because my feelings for Hana are sincere. I am in love with one.”

That was a confirmed kill.

Song Xia felt that her heart was torn to pieces.

It felt like countless sharp pieces of glass were stabbing through her veins and throughout her body.

‘Already… Junwoo was in love with another woman.’

She was also in love with Lee Jun-woo.

I can assure you that that feeling is absolutely not less than Choi Hana.

But one thing is clear.

The current Song Xia is not qualified to be next to Lee Jun-woo.

“That… I see. Congratulations… congratulations…”

Rather, in the fact that Lee Jun-woo said that directly to him.

There was nothing she could do other than hastily congratulate the couple.

Song Si-ah made a smile that was not forced so as not to make Lee Jun-woo feel offended.

***

New York Mafia Slayer.

Due to security maintenance at the office headquarters, the route to get there was quite complicated.

When I arrived at the headquarters building and had my ID verified, I was walking following the guidance of a mafia member. Song Xia was still with him.

‘It’s hard to go to the conference hall even once.’

But during that time, I achieved the goal of getting Song Xia to join me.

‘This confirms it. ‘Song Xia can never betray me.’

Expulsion from the Aegis.

Although I already knew the full story of the contribution manipulation.

I deliberately asked Song Xia, who was the main culprit, about the truth.

As expected, Song Xia confessed that she had done it.

And he even confessed his true feelings to me.

‘You said you already liked me at that point.’

Hidden title: Avenger of Cold Fire.

Perhaps, if that absolute equanimity was in effect, I really wouldn’t have felt anything.

But it was different now.

Now that the main story quest is over.

Aigis’ absolute composure toward the three people disappeared.

Obviously, I was nice to Song Xia during my high school days.

Like An Yu-min. It wasn’t like I had romantic feelings for Song Si-ah at all.

Through the original work, we knew about Song Xia’s unfortunate past, having been raised as a test subject for the family’s weapons since childhood.

I felt pity for her, who was like an emotionless doll.

Not only that, I was always sincere for the success of the party called Aigis, which I had affection for in the original work.

And ironically, it was a little funny that that emotional snowball led to my panic.

‘But now the panic is long gone.’

I suppressed my panic and ptsd with absolute composure.

Even when that absolute composure disappeared, the panic did not recur.

I knew why.

The three people of Aigis are no longer precious to me.

And that I will never again like a member of Aegis like I did before.

‘I already have someone I love.’

Hana Choi. my girlfriend

Since my feelings for that one person were sincere, I was able to calmly observe the three Aegis people without composure.

“……”

Song Xia was still watching me carefully.

I could see countless black threads connected to Song Xia through the power.

Even though I knew I was already in love with someone else.

That absolute power-eul relationship has not changed. So she can’t betray me.

‘It’s a tragedy. For Song Xia.’

Song Xia’s feelings for me will never be returned.

But because of that, I was able to receive more demonic power from Song Xia.

Song Xia’s true blood, which had been absorbed a moment ago, became even more pure.

As much as Song Si-in is a human rights character in the original work.

Song Si-ah, who never betrays, will be a definite counter to An Yu-min and Song Yu-hwan.

‘Especially in causing a rebellion against Song Yu-hwan. Song Xia can be an absolute justification.’

So what he said to Song Xia was not a lie.

As long as she declared herself on my side.

The bad relationship with Song Si-Ah ended at this point.

However, I will never fall in love with Song Xia.

Although she will never be able to achieve true salvation in the future.

‘But it’s still better than Ha Ye-eun.’

I planned to give Ha Ye-eun, who betrayed me, pain and punishment worse than death.

I have already received a DM from Mung Seok Kyu that he has started the work.

And An Yu-min is an apostle of chaos recognized by the returnee Letisane.

In other words, a being who can be said to be the final boss of the world that is currently collapsing.

‘An enemy I must defeat.’

But I stopped thinking there.

“Are you the unknown person who made that ridiculous offer?”

Finally, we entered the conference room.

There was a mafia boss with a cigar in his mouth.

A member of the eight major villains, comparable to the master hero.

Broker Federico looked at me.
