Chapter Index

    “Be careful, Rain.”

    After warning Lane, I explained to him what I knew about Kelly’s abilities.

    Rain nodded as if he understood quickly, and created water droplets around him.

    I held my sword out in front of me, making it difficult for Kelly to approach me rashly.

    If she knew the power of this sword, she wouldn’t stand in front at least.

    Kelly’s abilities were truly ghostly.

    Don’t let your guard down.

    A situation where you don’t know when or where she will appear.

    I moved slowly and placed my back against Rain.

    Rain used his powers to place water around him.

    Good idea.

    If Kelly shows up, she’ll inevitably be making a noise by treading water.

    How much time has passed like that?

    While I was still holding onto the tension, a light splashing sound was heard from the right.

    My body reacted automatically to the sound of someone stepping on water.

    As I swung the sword I was holding to the side, the wind parted and the blurry figure disappeared in an instant.

    “Gasp…”

    I was dumbfounded by the sight.

    The vague shape was still shaking in the air.

    That thing that had vaguely maintained a human form soon disappeared like dust.

    “Hey, did you just see that?”

    “You, ghost…”

    “It’s not a ghost… It’s Kelly’s ability.”

    I explained in a calm voice to Lane, who was trembling with fear.

    But I too was terrified of Kelly’s ghostly appearance.

    “Rain, Rain… Shall we go to the door…?”

    “Yeah…!”

    I started walking slowly with Rain.

    Since we were back to back, we could see in all directions without having to look behind us.

    It was the moment when I approached the door so carefully.

    From far away, a cracking sound was heard again.

    I turned my head and looked there.

    Kelly.

    Kelly stood there, her features blurred.

    She appeared a little further away, smiled subtly, and waved to me and Rain.

    At that light gesture, my vision suddenly distorts.

    “Aaah!”

    I checked my surroundings while hearing Rain’s screams.

    It’s clear that the path that had been leading to the door just a moment ago has now become farther away.

    I bit my lip and glared at Kelly.

    As Kelly’s blurry image began to become clear, she spoke to me and Lane.

    “Did you think you could go out?”

    Kelly had a confident look on her face, as if she couldn’t leave without permission.

    But I knew.

    If you give her a big shock, you may not be able to see her for a long time.

    Aside from Rain’s wave attack, I needed a tingling electric attack.

    I turned my sword and aimed it at Kelly.

    “Where did Lily go?”

    “Lily?”

    Kelly tilted her head at my words.

    As if he couldn’t understand why I was looking for Lily.

    I bit my lip and screamed.

    “Lily is my friend!”

    “Ah…”

    Kelly nodded as if she finally understood what I was saying.

    And then, the next moment, Kelly threw her hands in the air.

    I bit my lip and prepared to move, knowing my position would change.

    But the moment I saw the little girl appearing right next to Kelly, I couldn’t help but gape in amazement.

    That was Lily.

    A girl who looked exactly like Kelly was standing there.

    There can’t be two Kellys.

    So that’s Lily.

    “Lee, Lily!”

    Light began to return to Lily’s eyes, who had been standing there blankly.

    She blinked and looked around, then she spotted me and started running towards me.

    I deflected the sword to the side and held Lily in my arms.

    “Hey, what happened?”

    “I don’t know either…”

    I patted Lily’s sobbing back and glared at Kelly.

    Kelly looked at me and let out a subtle laugh.

    “Jeff. You like Lily that much?”

    “Of course! Lily is my friend! She’s not bad like you. She’s a cute little girl!”

    Hehehehe-

    A small laugh is heard.

    The laughter that started from Kelly’s mouth soon became heard right next to me, right next to my ear.

    The same laugh as Kelly.

    I felt creeped out and turned my head.

    Hehehehe-

    The small laughter did not stop.

    The source of the laughter was Lily in my arms.

    I opened my mouth blankly at the clear sound of laughter right next to me.

    Kelly, who had been laughing, stopped laughing.

    But on the contrary, Lily’s laughter grew louder.

    I gently pushed Lily away with trembling hands.

    “Lee, Lily?”

    “Yes, it’s Lily.”

    Lily’s voice remained the same.

    But Lily doesn’t make that kind of expression.

    Behind the stiff smile, a bitter look is hidden, and cold sweat runs down my back.

    “Ouch!”

    And the next moment, I found myself sitting inside a large machine.

    Before I could even react, a click sound followed.

    “Jeff!!!”

    With Lane’s scream-like yell, Lily’s face, no, Kelly’s face, comes close to mine.

    “Jeff… Don’t give your mother a hard time…”

    “You, you…!”

    “Umm… Should I stop teasing you?”

    Kelly no longer mimicked Lily’s speech.

    I looked at Kelly, who was far away from me.

    Kelly was two from the beginning.

    “No way Lily…”

    “If Jeff wants, I’ll be Lily. But if you let me check your memories…”

    It felt like someone had hit the back of my head hard.

    I bit my lip and glared at Kelly.

    “Hey, I’ll save you now!”

    Rain started running towards me, screaming loudly.

    In time with her movements, water droplets bloomed around her.

    The moment countless water droplets covered the surroundings, Rain’s figure disappeared in an instant.

    No, Rain didn’t disappear alone.

    Another Kelly, who had been standing near her, had also disappeared.

    I glared at Kelly, who was standing in front of me, with my eyes wide open.

    “Was it from the beginning?”

    “Huh?”

    “Don’t pretend not to know! Where did Lily go!”

    “Why are you pretending not to know, Jeff? I’m right here.”

    I laughed out loud at Kelly’s shameless remark.

    Kelly looked at me, sighed deeply, grabbed a nearby chair, and sat down in front of me.

    “Jeff, I don’t really like poking holes in people’s heads either.”

    I kept my mouth shut at Kelly’s words.

    A great sense of betrayal shook my whole body.

    Although it was a short time, I really enjoyed my time with Lily.

    But it was all a lie?

    Are you saying that it was Kelly and not Lily?

    I didn’t want to believe it.

    “If you had let go of the barrier, it could have ended well. If you had just done that, you could have kept your memories with Lily…”

    “This, this scammer!”

    Kelly smiled bitterly at my words.

    I shook my body wildly and blasted out electric shocks.

    Crackle! Crackle!

    Kelly stepped back in shock at the blue lightning scattering in all directions.

    “Don’t come near me!”

    “Um… Jeff. Let’s not give up. It’s just a little hole in your head. I’ll heal you up again.”

    “Lies!!! Lily! No, you said it! You said that if you have a hole in your head, you become an idiot!”

    At my words, Kelly scratched her cheek with a sour expression.

    I glared at her and raised my power.

    Even though his arms and legs were fixed, he was still able to use his abilities.

    With a long-range attack, it means you can easily roast a person.

    My innocence has been trampled.

    My heart, which had been pounding at the sight of Lily, was trampled upon.

    All to that grandma!!!

    I was angry.

    I was so angry I couldn’t stand it.

    “Yaaah!”

    Gugguggu-!

    Phage, phage, phage!

    My eyes were dizzy from the blue light that filled the surroundings.

    How much effort must have gone into that?

    I looked around, out of breath.

    As expected, Kelly was nowhere to be seen.

    I bit my lip and tried to move my arms and legs.

    It’s too hard.

    It wasn’t ordinary iron.

    Even though I used my powers to generate magnetic force, the machine did not move.

    I calculated the remaining power and entered the origin state.

    Although the remaining power in his body was rapidly decreasing, his physical abilities instantly increased.

    Phagec!

    “Keuuu!”

    Twist your arms and legs with all your might.

    My soft skin was scratched and bruised, but I didn’t care.

    RATTLE RATTLE – The machine shook violently, but the parts that held the arms and legs in place did not budge at all.

    After struggling like that for a while, I ended up collapsing without any strength.

    Oh, it’s discharged…

    Dismissal-

    I frowned as I watched the tiny sparks scattering before my eyes.

    “Are you done?”

    “Heeek!”

    I was startled by the voice coming from right next to me and shook my body.

    When did it appear again?

    Kelly approached me cautiously, her eyes narrowed.

    I looked at Kelly.

    “Oh, I haven’t finished it yet!”

    “Oh, really? Then you want to finish it…?”

    I bit my lip at Kelly’s annoying words and sent a blue lightning bolt at her.

    It was a very weak power because it was in a discharged state, but it was enough to surprise Kelly.

    Dismissed-!

    Kelly, hit by a faint spark, flinched and took a step back.

    “Oh, don’t come! If you come, I’ll roast you!”

    “Umm…”

    Kelly gave me a little wave of her hand at my words.

    It was almost as if they were experimenting with how much access they could allow.

    I stuck my mouth out at Kelly’s finger that was coming right in front of me.

    Exactly! Exactly!

    The teeth struck the air, making a loud sound.

    But I couldn’t bite Kelly’s finger.

    “Don’t come! If you come, I’ll bite you!”

    “Are you just going to ask…?”

    “I’m gonna shoot electricity!”

    Kelly wasn’t easy to approach.

    It seemed like he didn’t know that I was in a state of discharging.

    A cold sweat runs down my back.

    If you show weakness, a hole will be drilled in your head.

    I had to hold on.

    Heukyeonggung-ah.

    Please do me a favor.

    Send Sister here, Send Mom here, Send Rain here! Stop these vicious sex offenders!

    But the Black Archer didn’t respond to my request.

    That’s how I continued my war of nerves with Kelly.

    ***

    “Wow!”

    Lane rolled on the floor, screaming in pain.

    But I quickly got up.

    There was no time to fall down like this.

    Jeff, Jeff was dangerous.

    “Jeffeww!”

    Looking around, thinking only of Jeff, Lane realized that this was not the room where he had been with Jeff.

    It felt like I was defeated by my opponent’s ability.

    Rain looked around, spitting up water droplets while spreading water across the floor.

    “Can you wait here for a moment?”

    Rain shot a water droplet towards where the voice came from.

    A compressed water droplet spins rapidly and flies past Kelly’s body.

    But Kelly was fine, unscathed.

    After seeing that, Lane was finally able to recall Kelly’s abilities that Jeff had explained to him.

    The opponent will not be affected by attacks that he is not aware of.

    In that case, you just have to summon the same wave as before.

    Lane had no intention of talking to Kelly.

    The moment Rain’s yellow boots tapped the ground, the water that had spread out over a wide area exploded in a large amount.

    Quagagagagagaga!

    The room was filled with water, as if trying to fill the surroundings, by a column of water rising high into the sky.

    Rain smiled triumphantly in the water.
