Night has come.

“… It’s night”

A ripple appeared on the still water.

A turtle with innocent eyes

He put his face above the water.

He surrendered himself to the swaying water

It was flowing slowly.

“The full moon is in a few days”

The turtle man smiled secretly.

He loved the moon.

“About seven days left?”

I counted on my blunt fingers

Seven days later, the full moon would rise.

He loved the moon and wanted to see the full moon soon.

“읏… ”

The turtle man’s forehead, which had been smiling calmly, furrowed.

It was because I felt pain in my back.

I reached out my short hand and rubbed it.

It was the place where I was attacked by a wolf during the day.

I did nothing wrong.

I was really upset.

“Bad guy”

The turtle man let out a loud groan.

If only I could, I would meet that werewolf and speak to him confidently.

“What’s on my topic… ”

But the timid turtle soon gave up

I buried my face under the water.

Let’s go to sleep until our noses are below

Bubbles started to rise.

“Come to think of it, the moon is a bit red today”

The moon stole the turtle’s heart in an instant.

He stared blankly at his favorite moon.

“Wow, it’s red… ”

slowly

Very slowly.

My heart started pounding.

The scene from the day kept coming to my mind.

Eyes that were glancing over.

A mouth that was chewing.

A kick that hurt.

Everything is played.

And here I am, helplessly sitting there crying.

“… I want to kill you”

The turtle man muttered.

A red moon began to fill his pupils.

Slowly but surely.

“개새끼. 죽이고 싶네. 확 갈기갈기 찢어버리고 싶네”

My heart is pounding so hard.

Even though I was in the water, my body was very hot.

The turtle dived deep into the water and closed his eyes tightly.

I tried to cool down my heated body.

I tried to forget the memories that kept coming back to me.

My body was getting hotter and hotter,

My heart was beating fast.

I remembered what the wolf had said to me during the day.

“Ah! This won’t do!”

with a splash-!

A turtle jumped out of the water.

With bloodshot eyes

He ran quickly.

“I guess I have to kill him”

The next morning.

Rumor has it that one of the wolfmen fell into the water and died.

“My lord! Wake up!”

“Yeah, right!”

The first night after arriving in the land of the water people.

I was sleeping in Narae’s rented bedroom

I was startled by the sudden sound that woke me up and immediately opened my eyes.

“What, what’s going on”

“Something terrible has happened, my lord”

“Big trouble, what’s the big deal”

Maybe because I woke up too quickly

I can’t even open my eyes properly.

I dragged my creaking body, quickly got dressed, and headed outside.

Groan- Groan-

As I went outside, I heard a loud noise.

He stood next to Narae, shielding himself from the bright light with his palm.

All the other party members were up.

“Narae”

“My lord. You’re here”

“Huh, what’s the big deal?”

“Look at this”

I looked where Narae’s finger was pointing.

“Sob, sob, sob sob”

“Huh? That guy I saw yesterday… ”

There was a turtle figure there that I saw yesterday afternoon.

The turtle man was surrounded by several water men with swords and armor.

And next to it, the werewolf I had seen during the day was lying there, a cold corpse.

What was unusual was that it was soaking wet and swollen.

I forced myself to resist the urge to gag at the horrifying sight I was seeing for the first time.

“My lord. If it’s hard for you, don’t look at me too much”

“It’s okay”

I leave Narae behind, who is worried about me

I watched the gruesome scene with a complicated heart.

Is that turtle person like that?

Why? He didn’t seem like a villainous person to do something like that.

As if my thoughts were not wrong, the turtle man was sobbing sadly without raising his head.

“Sinner. Lift your head”

Ninja Turtle Priestess Hyun-i stepped forward.

“Mu, Lady Shaman, I am… ”

As soon as he saw Hyun-i, the turtle Su-in hung on to her ankle.

Hyun-i frowned and shook his hand away.

“Sinner. Priestess. Do not touch”

Hyun-i, with a look of displeasure on her face, gestured to the surrounding soldiers and gave them orders.

They go straight down to the intersection of Unwol-do

The turtle aimed for the water man’s neck.

“Mu, Priestess! I really don’t know anything”

“Witness. There is. You too. Traces remain”

Did they drag him into the water and kill him?

The turtle’s hand was covered in a handful of wolf fur.

In addition, there was talk that the same turtle men had seen him bring a wolf man in the middle of the night.

He was furious at the injustice,

All circumstances were leading him to be the culprit.

“Sinner. Death”

With Hyun-i’s sentencing

The soldiers held the Unwoldo.

The abandoned Unwoldo Island sparkled in the sun.

If you get caught there, your head will probably be cut off in one stroke.

“Miss, Miss. Please, please save me”

The turtle man lay face down on the floor and prayed desperately.

But Hyun-i was calm.

She didn’t even bother to look at it

He nodded.

The soldiers lowered their swords.

Pakaang-!

The sword was stopped by a strong iron bar.

The soldiers blocked the Unwoldo with the object,

He then looked at the owner of the object.

“Mi, sorry for interfering. But I still want to hear what you have to say”

“… Na-rae’s husband”

That owner was me.

Fortunately, we were able to stop the Unwol Island in time.

I immediately took back my sword and declared that I had no intention of fighting.

Hyun-i had an angry expression, but

But he didn’t get angry at me right away.

I expressed my heartfelt gratitude to her.

“Thank you for understanding. Hyun-iya”

“… ”

Hyun-i turned her head with a slightly red face.

Knowing that it is implicit permission

I approached the crying turtle.

“Are you okay?”

“, you are… ”

“He’s Na-rae’s husband. You may have heard the rumors, but”

“Ah, I know. The fox priestess took a human as her husband”

“Yeah, that’s me”

There must have been a lot of good and bad rumors,

The turtle’s eyes, which had been sobbing, softened considerably.

“I want to hear more”

“What, what…?”

“What happened that day. It must be hard, but can you tell me in as much detail as possible?”

“Ah… ”

The turtle man sniffed and sniffed.

“Uh, last night I was just out of the water”

“Yeah, when was that?”

“I don’t remember exactly. Anyway, everyone was asleep. It must have been close to midnight”

“What did you do there?”

“I just lay there quietly. I really like meditating alone”

“That’s right”

Everyone was looking at me with suspicious eyes.

The turtle man seemed intimidated as he spoke.

He lowered his head with a “ssss” sound.

I hugged him tightly like that.

“It’s okay. You can keep talking”

“Black, yes. Thank you”

“When did you meet this wolf man? What happened?”

“I, I really don’t know. I don’t remember”

Whoosh-! Boom-!

A stone flew from somewhere.

The turtle man was hit in the head by the stone and bled.

“Don’t lie! You killed your brother!”

It was another colleague who was with the werewolf yesterday.

I glared at him,

Na-rae’s actions were one beat faster than that.

“What kind of rudeness is this!”

The one who was caught in Narae’s restraint fell to the floor with a groan of pain.

“My lord. Please continue”

“Thank you, Narae. Sorry, can you continue talking?”

“Oh, yes. That actually made me a little upset yesterday. My back hurt a lot too”

“Yeah, so what’s next?”

“Then, then… Then… I don’t remember well”

With those words, the turtle man sat down and burst into tears.

It was really frustrating because there were no significant results.

But you can’t just pick up a crying child and peck at him or her.

I sat next to him and waited for him to stop crying.

Fortunately, the turtle man calmed down a little after about ten minutes.

“Do you remember anything in more detail? Before your memory fades”

“More, more detailed?”

“Yeah”

As he was pondering his memories, his eyes suddenly opened wide.

“There it is!”

“What?!”

“Did you see the moon”

“month?”

“Yes, but that moon was red”

“… !!! My lord, this is… !”

I nodded to Narae’s words.

“The moon was unusually red that day, and when I saw it, my heart started pounding. My body was hot, and I felt so suffocated that I dove deep into the water, and then I lost my memory”

“Thank you. It must be a difficult memory”

I patted him on the back.

The cause is probably the red moon.

I lost consciousness after seeing that,

If your body gets hot and your heart beats faster

It is highly likely that he was possessed by that madness, even if only for a moment.

The only question is that there are still seven days left until Nao’s red moon.

“Has Naoga already entered the water country?”

Narae shook her head firmly.

“No, the generals would not have allowed it. If they had, the generals and the mothers would have known about it”

“Then how did the red moon rise?”

Blood flowed from his chewed lips.

Narae growled, baring her sharp fangs.

“Come on, that bitch is coming around here”

The commotion around them grew louder.

The soldiers tried hard to comfort the residents.

Of course, that doesn’t mean the soldiers’ expressions were bright.

They are the ones who go out into the battlefield and face Nao directly.

Rather, you will feel more nervous and afraid.

However, it just doesn’t show any tea.

“We need to hurry”

“Yes, leave it to the girl”

Narae stood up with a solemn expression on her face.

She immediately called in the Allied forces and left for training.

“What’s going on with him?”

“Sinner. Punishment. Received”

Hyun-i answered my question firmly.

I nodded complicatedly.

Well, I guess so.

I found out that the red moon was the cause.

Anyway, since I committed the crime of killing my own kind,

The Suin people have a very strong affection for their own kind.

There will be no escape from punishment.

“Still. Thank you”

“Huh?”

“Thanks. The truth. Find out. Prepared”

“No. I’m the one who should be thankful for waiting. If you think about it, it’s a nod”

“… ”

Hyun-i looked at me quietly.

“Why?”

“Narae. Husband. Well chosen”

“Oh, really? Thank you”

“Me too. Husband. I want one”

“You’ll probably find a good guy too”

“Really?”

“Oh, really”

By giving her a heartfelt compliment

My work is finished.

Hyun-i leaves the turtle Su-in to the soldiers.

He gave the order to take him to prison.

However, as before, immediate execution was not carried out.

The hand that took me was also a little softer.

The turtle man glanced at me and said, “Thank you,” before leaving.

His future may not be smooth.

The sin still remains, and it has left an indelible scar on anyone.

“Warrior, come out… ”

And the wound started from the warrior.

That day, the scar on my left arm was particularly painful.
