episode_0366

I wanted Harold to suffer.

However, I did not want them to suffer while causing harm to the third party.

I thought that if the king went crazy, he would naturally be dethroned.

Therefore, in my mind, I drew a picture of a crazy king locked in a closet.

But, they use the immortal king as a shield to tyrannize?

‘They say humans are scarier than devils.’

─Harold must die.

We should not have tolerated tyranny.

“···Aren’t you sleeping?”

ah.

“Yes. I plan to sleep a little later.”

This is within the security jurisdiction of Prezaville, so you are not allowed to carry weapons.

Because it is in front of a cradle with a painful past.

Thanks to this, Prezaville’s security was able to keep an eye on us and Primal, who had weapons, and there were no thieves.

Now everyone is sleeping peacefully.

“Please sleep first.”

Anne laughed brightly, then crawled over to me and leaned against me.

There was a strong smell of alcohol.

“I’m going to sleep like this.”

“Sure.”

So, let’s break into the castle and kill him?

You know how nonsense that is, right?

I guess I can kill him.

But Donggwijin is the only one.

If I die twice, I’ll never find Lexi again.

It’s clear that they’ll completely forget about me.

‘What should I do?’

My thoughts were suddenly broken.

This is because Anne started to sneak into me.

“Anne.”

“Yes.”

“What do you want to do in the future?”

“Me? I···.”

Anne, who took my hand and wrapped it around her neck, looked up at me.

With eyes full of affection.

“···I haven’t decided yet.”

“Like this, the carriage will head towards the north, and finally towards the center. After that, I will leave here.”

“Yes…?”

“After that, we will break up.”

“Now, wait a minute…!”

This must be notified in advance.

It’s definitely going to get busy, and I won’t be able to travel leisurely like I do now.

“Anne, I know what you think of me. But I’m not a person so outstanding that I can be someone else’s hope. I have a home and a place to return to.”

You shouldn’t like me.

So please don’t look at me like that.

“Think about what you will do next.”

Anne looks completely sober.

The eyes that looked at me as if begging were very burdensome.

“I want to follow Lee.”

“You should not leave everything to your emotions. The world is cruel and doesn’t understand human emotions.”

“That’s the same for Lee.”

Is it because he always speaks in this way as if he were teaching?

I guess I don’t want to hear it.

“Yes. I am also part of that world.”

Does Anne know?

There’s really nothing in this world you can trust.

I would like to give some advice to this immature person.

“I may sound like an old man, but I will give you just one piece of advice.”

I don’t know if you understand what I mean.

“What people should never let go of in their lives are doubts and worries. Also, what a person must have is courtesy, duty, and patience.”

“···Suddenly I have no idea what’s going on.”

Anne slipped down and lay down on my thighs.

Then he turned over and glared at my thighs with a slightly annoyed face.

“Too high.”

Sorry for being high.

“Give me an arm pillow.”

I could tell from the grumbling tone of voice.

Anne refused to understand like a child.

But I can’t accept foolish things.

‘In the end, you will accept it when you reach the end.’

“Yes.”

As I lay down, Anne snuggles into me.

Just like a young sur.

“I will tell the acting manager so that I can remain in Golden Road.”

If it were my request, Jemmy Drucker would gladly accept Anne.

But Anne did not answer, and with her eyes closed, she refused to answer, pretending to be asleep.

But I didn’t fall asleep.

How much time has passed?

“···Me. When I first changed like this, I lived with my parents who had forgotten about me. Of course, you two forgot about me.”

“Was he a good person?”

“I don’t know. You don’t remember?”

“There will be memories.”

“Yes. My finger was cut off. because of me. I was kicked out by the landowner for being a thief, but they didn’t even pay me the wages they were supposed to and asked me to do other work? No matter where I go, I get kicked out… I get pointed at, and my parents divorce due to conflict…”

···Perception is distorted.

Since I received the blessing of a servant who was nowhere to be found, I guess it went unrecognized.

“From then on, I thought I couldn’t get involved with anyone.”

“I’m sorry.”

“No. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t bear it. Even though I couldn’t talk to others, I could listen to what other people were saying and see the world.”

Only then did Anne open her eyes and look up at me with shining red eyes.

“Do you know? I feel like the main character in my life is someone other than me.”

“I don’t know.”

“Actually, it’s pretty good. Like a play we saw together before. How fun it is to be human… But do you know what happens when the play ends?”

Anne is burning my body little by little.

“There is nothing but a miserable reality.”

Red eyes with a heightened perspective look down at me.

“For the first time in my life, I was able to participate in the play called life. I was able to talk to the main character and even touch him.”

I never thought about it like this.

“You are my main character.”

I just thought I had saved one person.

“You must be the protagonist of your life.”

“No. The moment you spoke to me, the moment you touched me… From then on, he became my main character forever.”

Soon, Anne, who had hugged me, buried herself in me.

“I won’t blame Lee even if he abandons me.”

My mind froze at the last word.

The anger was intense.

‘He’s being damned.’

Like a supporting role in a cheap play?

Beyond humans, all living things live for their own happiness.

The moment you deviate from this, it becomes a thorny path.

─That is not living.

“I never had you. Your master is only you until you die. No one can own anyone else.”

Anne said nothing more as she spoke in a strong tone.

But those innocent eyes still hadn’t gone away, and they were staring down at me.

Eventually, Anne’s face approaches and covers her lips with mine.

My head began to hurt from this unacceptable behavior.

‘Should I be angry?’

I have never received such feelings or confessions.

That will happen no matter who I invite in the world.

“Anne. The driving force of people is selfishness, not altruism.”

Anne laughs and smiles.

“Why? People say they hate selfish people.”

“All life is created selfishly. There are two types of people who hate and don’t understand selfish people. These are people who either do not understand the physiology of the world or view the world through self-centeredness.”

“If people have to be selfish, is it okay to do as they please?”

“If you respect others, selfishness will be automatically suppressed.”

“But what if you still want to do it selfishly?”

Please “. And you just have to take responsibility for your own actions.”

I thought Anne was only immune to gravity, which has been around for 4 billion years of biological history.

But now I see that even the selfishness that has been the driving force of all living things for 4 billion years of biological history has been twisted in a strange direction.

To me, this may be a manifestation of twisted selfishness…

‘I’m still mentally unstable.’

At least I’m not the trash that attracts insecure women.

“It’s shameful.”

“It’s not petty, it’s a price.”

I love Lexi.

I had no intention of hooking up with another woman, at least until I was sure whether Lexi was waiting for me or not.

I looked at Anne with those eyes.

Anne glanced at me, then shifted her weight and kissed me.

Then, he looks down at me in a condescending manner and opens his mouth.

“So, what are you going to get in return?”

What? Most of it is violence.

* * * * * *

“Did you hit your head while you were sleeping?”

Jesse, who saw Anne’s red forehead, gave her a worried look.

“I was sleeping when Lee suddenly pushed me and I fell out of the carriage.”

I fell after getting hit in the middle of the night.

In response to Anne’s complaints, Jesse gave me a strange look.

I ignored it.

The butcher weighs and packs the fresh slaughtered meat into the freezer, and then I move it.

The slaughter took place right before your eyes.

Kwajik─!

In other words, they were cutting off the animal’s head.

Sigh—-!

The headless, writhing body spills out its internal organs.

Merson seems to be very upset about the intestines and heads lying around.

“Baby. Are you okay?”

“Uh, yes…”

“Please take me with you and take a look.”

Drekkar’s elves are a chosen race that follows Lu’s will.

If that meaning flows through my body at all, this sight would be rat poison.

It was rare to see meat being deboned jump like a fish.

At the same time, it is ironic.

‘Eat well, eat well.’

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. We will take it all.”

“Thank you.”

Jesse bows, takes Merson with him, and leaves the slaughterhouse.

I mean, he’s such an innocent person.

“But why are you taking the greasy part?”

“There is a lack of fire in the north. Thanks to this, most of the meat eaten in the North is boiled pork.”

“Is that so?”

“It is said that in the north, meat and bones are boiled together and the meat broth is drunk.”

Meat broth and meat.

They seem to be people who know how to eat well.

“Why don’t you eat anything else?”

“There are no vegetables in the north. Thanks to that, I only eat raw meat.”

“I’ll take this with me.”

Anne lifted a freezer that was similar to her own weight.

It looks like he used his powers.

It looked quite strange.

But Steri’s eyes narrowed as he thought something strange.

“···I’ll have to say something to Jesse and Merson when I get back.”

“Don’t you know? It is the power of a servant that exists nowhere else.”

“But don’t you work hard too?”

“I lifted you too.”

“──────?!”

Steri is startled, looks at Anne walking away, and glares at me with wide eyes.

But eventually he sighed and averted his gaze.

“···Please be careful with your words and actions.”

“Of course.”

No one can hear it anyway.

I took the filled freezer and carried two on each shoulder.

Steri soon followed suit.

“Are you tired of pretending to be human anymore?”

“This can happen if you exercise consistently.”

“I have never seen a ball move.”

I don’t have to exercise.

“If you feel unfair, ask Maal. What is he?”

After loading the freezer, Merson and Jesse tie it to the cargo hook.

“The northern part is a tough place. Me and Jessie will be fine, but Anne, Duke, and Merson will need to get thicker clothes.”

Sterry says in passing.

‘Is it very cold?’

It seems like Merson and Jessie already know, but for me and Anne, it’s my first time.

“Is it that cold in the North?”

“If a human being is exposed to extreme cold with his bare body, he cannot survive for an hour.”

I thought it was around -30 degrees Celsius at most, but I guess that wasn’t the case.

Wouldn’t it be -50 to 60 degrees below zero?

“Anne, I have to go buy a sleeping bag and clothes for you. Would you like to go with Merson?”

“Oh, I’m fine.”

Are you okay?

Anne and I are said to be in the carriage, but those two are sitting in the driver’s seat.

Wouldn’t you have to face the cold wind every day?

“I will warm up my boyfriend with my body. Anywhere, anywhere.”

Jesse presses against Merson.

“After all, you are the only one?”

‘You crazy bitches.’

I don’t know how cold it will be, but it’s hard to think of me getting frostbite from the cold. In the end, there is no problem.

“I don’t know if there is a place that sells clothes for humans.”

This is Prezaville, and most of the population is Rectalian.

There are probably no places that sell human clothing.

“If you don’t have it, you have no choice but to buy leather and make it yourself, or make it into a robe and wear it.”

I guess I should go buy some leather.

There are still several gold coins left.

At this rate, we should be able to get a sleeping bag and leather for Anne to wear.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes?”

“Isn’t it cold?”

“No! I… Yes.”

I immediately got off the carriage and headed to downtown Frezaville with Anne.

“I would like to get some clothes, but there is no place here that sells human clothing.”

“Why? I just need to warm it up with my body, right?”

Are you showing off your inappropriate behavior?

“Please ask Sterry. It will keep you very warm every night.”

“Chi.”

Even calling it a sleeping bag is grandiose.

You could just buy a whole leather bag and sleep in it, and that would be your sleeping bag.

How long did I walk following the unique smell of tanning solution?

We arrived at a place quite far from the downtown area.

“···Do you know where this is?”

“I don’t know.”

“Yes?! What are you going to do if you get lost?!”

It’s troublesome to explain it one by one.

Anne began to sing like a little bird, chattering words criticizing me.

Ah, that’s good to hear.

“You’re not listening!”

“I’m listening.”

The scent of various animals wafts from afar.

From deer, bears, foxes to squirrels…

‘Why on earth are you selling squirrel skin?’

Are you a poacher?

Anyway, we arrived at a place that seemed to handle skins from all the animals in the North.

The smell of chemicals coming from inside makes my head hurt slightly.

“···Have you been here before?”

“No.”

It seems like a place that handles both taxidermy and leather.

No one cares more about the quality of leather than a taxidermist.

The quality is practically guaranteed.

However, for some reason, there was also a smell that sent a chill down my spine.

···Never mind.

“Are you there?”
