sisters (7)
A forest filled with unpleasant moisture.
When I went looking for him along the wreckage of a truck that had been torn to pieces so much that it was difficult to even find its shape.
-I also want to ask Cassia something.
The constellation Ophiuchus offered her a deal.
-Did you call it Pagunseong? I want you to bring him to me.
-… Oh Jin, why do you want to meet me?
-haha. It’s just a mild curiosity. I want to see who the other owner of the Black Heaven is that ‘that person’ mentioned.
Cassia shook her head resolutely at Moebius, who spoke with a gentle smile.
-I will refuse.
-is it so? This is so… It’s a shame.
Moebius shook his head as if he was truly regretful and continued speaking.
-Cassia had a younger sister named Isabella, right? She was a very beautiful child, just like Kasia.
-… Why is the story about Isabella suddenly coming up?
-well?
The sight of Moebius smiling brightly gave me a chill.
* * *
Cassia was not foolish enough to not know that he was now making threats under the pretext of a deal using Isabella.
-Unfortunately, I have a bad relationship with Bella.
-is it so? So you’re saying it doesn’t matter what happens to that child?
-that… .
A feeling of pressure as if a huge snake was squeezing my body.
Cassia trailed off and bit her chapped lip.
-Kasia is a very good child.
Moebius continued speaking with a kind smile.
-Even if everything was taken away from that child, you can’t hate him, right?
-What do you know… .
-The affection between blood and relatives is truly amazing. As a constellation with no concept of flesh and blood, it would be a feeling that I would never experience in my entire life.
-… … .
Cassia clenched her fists with a nervous expression as she looked at the eerily shining emerald eyes.
-I won’t let you have your way.
-This is so… It’s a shame. Even though it wasn’t my child, I didn’t want to hurt Cassia, who gave me the stigmata.
Moebius clicked his tongue lightly and slowly stood up.
Pure white snakes crawled out from the shadows and filled the forest.
and… .
“haha! “No, Ojin.”
Cassia was breathing heavily and staggered towards Ojin, who was confronting Moebius.
She pulled Ojin’s arm with a nervous expression.
“If you fight Moebius… No.”
Cassia tries to stop misdiagnosis with an expression distorted in pain.
Cassia’s expression was pale as she pulled his arm, wondering what had happened when she fought him before.
“Hmm? “Does Cassia have the right to say that?”
Moebius looked at Cassia with an expression as if asking what she was talking about.
“Did you forget? “It’s not me who brought him here, it’s Cassia?”
“Well, that’s… .”
Cassia’s shoulders trembled.
“It was Cassia’s will to betray him and lure him here, right?”
“That means you Bella…” !”
“Are you saying there was nothing you could do to protect Bella?”
Mobius smiled brightly and nodded.
“Hmm. okay. So you’re saying that her younger brother was more important to Cassia than Pagunseong?”
“Well, it’s not like that… .”
“Otherwise, you shouldn’t have called Pagunseong here, right? No, I just called. Didn’t he even tell me that he would kill Cassia with his own hands?”
A white snake shrugging its shoulders with a fishy sneer.
“If that’s not betrayal, then what is betrayal?”
“… … .”
Cassia, who had become completely mute, tightly pursed her lips.
As he said, even though he knew that Mobius was here, it was none other than Cassia’s own will to invite Ojin.
“I think I would have been quite upset if I had been Papunseong. “He helped Cassia escape from Black Heaven’s control, but Cassia actually tried to kill him.”
“Well, I…” .”
Cassia took a step back with a pale, tired face.
The hand that was pulling Ohjin’s arm relaxed.
Ojin glanced back at Cassia, who was taking a step back, and then turned his head towards Moebius with a chuckle.
“If I listen quietly, I can’t stand the smell of gas.”
There are degrees of gaslighting. Does the person who kidnapped and threatened Isabella have the right to blame Cassia now?
“What makes your tongue so long? Oh, is it because it’s a snake?”
“Hmm. Are you defending Cassia? This is true. “Unlike him, you are definitely quite withdrawn.”
“It was your head that fell down.”

I clicked my tongue, swallowing the double curse that came out of my mouth.
“Cassia didn’t do well, and I’m the one who decides whether to do it or not, not you.”
Strictly speaking, it is true that Cassia’s actions could be called ‘betrayal’.
It is true that Isabella is being held hostage and that she left Anigo to trick him and lure him to where Mobius is.
‘Did you say you said you would kill me yourself?’
It wasn’t difficult to guess what Cassia was thinking when she said those words.
‘You probably didn’t really intend to kill me.’
If you were planning on killing him, you should have slit his throat instead of first holding a blade to his throat and making a clumsy threat.
But Cassia couldn’t do that.
I couldn’t do that.
For her, neither Ojin nor her younger brother were entities she could give up on.
so.
therefore.
so that.
He chose to die.
If you push him thoroughly and die from an unexpected counterattack.
If you fail rather than make a mistake.
He said he could save both Ojin and Isabella.
You would have thought so.
It’s stupid, it’s stupid.
There is no other way.
It would have been the curtain-raiser for a crude play.
“is that so? So what do you think about Pagunseong? Are you going to be lenient and say that there is nothing you can do since your younger brother is being held hostage?”
“No way.”
Cassia’s shoulders trembled at the sight of Ohjin shaking his head resolutely.
“Whatever the reason, what Cassia did this time is unforgivable.”
“Ojin… .”
Cassia looked at Ojin’s back with sad eyes.
Although she knew full well that she had done something unforgivable.
When I heard the words ‘I cannot forgive’ directly from Ojin’s mouth, my heart sank.
‘it hurts.’
A sharp pain that feels like being stabbed in the chest with a sharp awl.
A sticky mixture of guilt and self-reproach constricted my throat.
‘I am.’
Just like he said.
What you did is unforgivable.
This is something that should not be forgiven.
‘Anyway, I lied to Ojin.’
Isabella lied about being kidnapped by Mobius and lured him here.
He pretended to have kidnapped Isabella himself and attacked her.
‘I am Ojin… ‘You betrayed me.’
The days when I lived as a puppet, covered in dark clouds.
The person who first reached out to her, who had suffered from extreme isolation and loneliness all her life.
I couldn’t express warm gratitude to the person who gave me a favor that I couldn’t repay, but I thrust a cold blade at him.
It would be blasphemous to even expect to be forgiven.
but.
Nevertheless… .
“Oh Jin. “Take Bella and leave here.”
Cassia stood in front of Ojin with unsteady steps.
He glared at Moebius, who was leisurely sitting on the remains of the building, and summoned black snakes.
Fighting with a dying body would have been tantamount to suicide against Moebius, who could not have dared to fight him even when he was in good health.
“At least we can take some time.”
With a solemn determination in mind, he spread his shadow wide.
“haha. Are you trying to come and protect him now?”
Moebius laughed and shook his head.
“It’s too late to regret it. “Just as the world does not disappear when you close your eyes, even if you change his position now, it will not change the fact that you betrayed him.”
“I know.”
I have no intention of being forgiven.
I also know that it is just masturbation to relieve the boiling guilt.
But if, with your help, you can buy him some time to escape.
If only my life of being like an ugly bug hiding in the shadows could be of any help.
I am willing to give this life for him.
“You want to buy time?”
“yes. It won’t last long. As soon as possible… .”
“Well, it’s the same when a younger brother or older sister makes a person explode.”
A similar thing happened with Isabella before.
Ojin clicked his tongue, remembering the time when he was trapped in the demon world.
One step.
He stepped forward and grabbed Cassia’s back.
“Ojin… ? “Aaaah!”
They tied her body with wire and threw her back roughly.
Cassia screamed and rolled on the floor with Isabella, who fainted.
“W-what are you doing now?!”
“Well, I put it aside because it was a hindrance to fighting.”
Ojin stood in front of Cassia, frowning as if he didn’t like it.
As if he was trying to protect her.
Cassia’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked at the broad back.
“You said you couldn’t forgive me earlier… .”
“Uh, I can’t forgive you.”
In particular, I could never forgive his foolish act of trying to take his own life.
“So, I’ll scold you a lot later.”
“… yes?”
“I’m prepared to be beaten until my butt turns red.”
I also have some experience in this field.
“… … .”
Cassia looked at Ojin with a puzzled expression.
Prepare to be beaten until your butt turns red?
“Ojin… “Are you stupid?”
I was so shocked that I couldn’t even speak properly.
“I betrayed Ojin! “They used Bella as bait to lure Ojin here!”
Is that all?
“You even hurt Ojin!”
Ultimately, I planned to die to him.
The attack that was launched to deceive him contained the magic power of the violent stigmata.
In fact, he suffered quite a few injuries on his body.
however.
Are you going to fight the Constellation to save yourself?
Where in the world is such a stupid thing?
“I know.”
“Then why…” !”
“uh… therefore.”
Oh Jin thought about what to say for a moment and then answered abruptly as if he was annoyed.
“I don’t like how it looks.”
“… yes?”
“Look at that guy, he looks like a fraudster, right?”
To other people, he may just look like an impressive handsome guy.
In Ojin’s eyes, the sharp fangs hidden in that gentle smile were clearly visible.
“I hate cheaters the most.”
