Chapter 127 – 127. A slightly unique relationship
“That’s the story so far.”
Aria beyond the door speaks calmly. I could only feel the dry emotion in that voice, otherwise it would have been difficult to put this into words.
on the other way.
When I entered this game, I was so shocked that I had never heard anything more shocking.
My head doesn’t think properly. One sentence trapped me and I couldn’t think straight.
‘It was me.’
What broke her like this?
The obsession with myself and the strangely twisted desire for recognition was something I created.
And that too on purpose.
To make Aria listen to me more.
He intentionally made me overly obsessed and cajoled me into relying on him.
‘I understand.’
Now that I have learned necromancy, I have been able to work like this since she was a first year student.
In the first episode, Kim Shin-woo fought with Deius’ original spirit for almost two years.
The entire early part of the game was blown away, and since it was only the first play, you probably knew that it would be impossible to see the proper ending.
That’s why Kim Shin-woo was chosen for the first episode.
He treated Aria like a game, trying to get to the ending he thought was best.
In this game where a second play is essential, you must have abandoned even more of your humanity to see a happy ending in the first round.
“under.”
A rough yet hot breath was exhaled. I never thought the moment I would feel this way would come.
thud.
As if blaming myself, I slammed my head against the door and clenched my fists.
The excessive force made my body tremble and I couldn’t control it.
I finally found out.
Now all questions have been answered.
likewise.
I now realize that I too can follow similar steps as I did in the past.
“ha.”
A sigh is exhaled again.
Otherwise, I felt like my head would become engulfed by the tightness and heaviness in my chest.
I felt so pathetic for taking this child to such an extreme, but also because it was so understandable.
The path I would have taken even if it had been slightly twisted.
Disgust rises at the actions that must have taken place once again.
“professor?”
Aria calls me as if she is worried. Her doorknob shook slightly as if she had placed her hand on it, but did not open it.
“for a moment.”
Looking at that scene, I tried to blurt out a word. The words I spat out as if I was struggling were not like me.
“I will leave the room.”
“Oh, yes! all right! I’ll wait!”
However, I can’t hear Aria’s footsteps as she is still standing in front of the door.
Even though I felt guilty about leaving her behind, I moved on.
Findenai, who was sitting on the stairs going down with a cigarette in her mouth and her chin resting on her chin, sensed someone’s presence and slowly turned her head.
“What, it’s over… … .”
When Findeneye sees me, he opens his mouth and says, “I miss the beginning of the year.” Then she jumped up and forcibly put her arms around me.
“What are you doing?”
I was embarrassed by the sudden reaction, but Findeneye gritted her teeth and carried me down the stairs.
“Shut up. “f*ck, what kind of conversation can a person’s face change like that?”
“what?”
“It’s okay, you don’t have to know. “If it weren’t for the girl you care about, you would have gotten away with Aria.”
“No, you can’t do that.”
When I barely uttered a single word, Findeneye also responded with annoyance.
“I know, damn it.”
The place Findenai took me was to my room in the professor’s dormitory. She laid me down there and immediately turned over.
“Nursing professor? “I’ll call that person, so just wait a moment.”
“… … .”
Finden Eye went out right away.
I take a breath and take a quick look around. A quiet room with no one around.
My eyes naturally close and I become lost in thought.
And the country begins to look back on humans.
I’ve been working hard so far. In order to prevent the destruction of the continent, I was preparing to face that day step by step in my own way.
A world where the boundary between life and death that Aria spoke of has collapsed?
I’m sorry.
‘That’s not the real ending.’
Strictly speaking, it could be said that the game was over right before the ending.
Originally, it would have saved Dante’s leader and prevented the boundary between life and death from collapsing.
And after that, the ending is determined by another episode.
In the first round, I failed near the ending.

In the end, it meant that Aria did not completely see the tragedy of this world.
What good is that?
It’s already ruined that way.
A sigh flowed out.
When I first started playing the game, the image of Aria Rias smiling innocently and talking to the students flashed through my mind.
No matter what happens, even if I kneel in tragedy.
Her determination to get up again and move on with a smile.
Her conviction that she could sacrifice herself for the sake of others.
In my struggle to avoid the bad ending prepared in the first round, it collapsed and disappeared, and only a cloudy obsession took its place.
They want to be recognized by me. I wish I could love myself.
Because if I do, I won’t leave myself.
That way, the tragedy we saw that day will not be repeated.
In cloudy emotions.
In a heartbreaking, heart-crushing sense of guilt.
A bit unexpectedly.
[What are you doing?]
The dark spirit came out.
[Are you doing this after asking me to leave for a moment?]
“… … “I’m taking a break.”
The moment the dark spirit was about to say something, saying that my words were absurd.
[Your complexion is so bad?]
The dark spirit looked at my face and looked around at me with a worried voice.
[What happen? Is it because of that girl from earlier? Should I scold you?]
Even if I go, I know that I will come back without being able to do anything.
Still, the dark spirit clenched his fists and made a fuss.
Come to think of it, the dark spirit was also one of my victims in the first round.
Is that why?
Without realizing it, I said something emotional, as if I was grumbling.
“I just found out that I was uglier than I thought.”
A man who thought he could do well, but could break down at any time.
In the end, they are foolish beings who try to take advantage of anything.
At worst, he was disgusted by gaslighting an innocent country girl into becoming dependent on him.
Even though it was out of necessity, I couldn’t help but be shocked that they actually did it.
[You?]
The dark spirit tilted his head, asking what I meant, but I said nothing more.
It felt like if I opened my mouth any longer, I would spill out more useless words. Like a child.
[I don’t know why you, who have been like an iron wall, are shaking so much.]
“… … .”
[You, who used to be so inhumane, are now starting to look a little more human. And the reason you’re so shaken… … .]
The dark spirit gently hugs me. It was a very unexpected action, and I didn’t feel any sensation.
It was using mana to give me a subtle warmth.
[It’s probably because it’s your weakest point.]
“I am… … .”
[I know I can’t approach you carelessly. Because that’s your past. So, I will wait far away.]
The dark spirit quietly walked away from me and smiled softly.
[It’s okay no matter how long it takes. Because I’m already dead.]
“… … .”
[But if it’s you, I’m sure you’ll get over it quickly.]
After saying that, the dark spirit slowly disappeared. It was to give me time.
Afterwards, Keren and Erica, brought by Findenai, came to visit, but I sent them away.
Alone in the room, I closed my eyes and thought deeply.
I have mild emotional ups and downs.
Why was I so swayed by Aria’s actions?
The reason is that.
“It’s not because of Deius’ past.”
It’s not simply because of the evil deeds I did in the first episode.
“Long before that.”
Earlier than the first time.
A story about when I was living as Kim Shin-woo.
My past seemed to have no weaknesses because I kept it hidden so no one could see it.
The dark spirit once said those words to me when he captured the soul of Dina, Dante’s warlock.
– To fight monsters, please don’t become a monster.
Probably me in the first round.
It felt like I had become a monster in order to survive.

The sunset coming through the window.
A black-haired girl staring at it endlessly.
I just kept my eyes blank.
It was boring.
It was boring.
It was even a little painful.
It was normally my room in the dormitory, but it was difficult to accept it when I thought I was locked in it.
at that time.
Suddenly.
A door opened without warning.
Aria suddenly turned her head and smiled brightly.
Deius Verdi was standing there.
But soon after.
“It’s fake.”
Aria glares at him with wide eyes. It looks like Professor Deius, but it’s fake.
Someone is wearing a very elaborate disguise to deceive them.
Thinking like that, Aria immediately generated mana.
A somewhat foolish answer came out of Deius’ mouth.
“okay.”
It seems so natural.
“I am not Deius.”
What follows next.
A slightly different story.
It is not a stereotypical relationship like student and professor.
It is not an ordinary story of someone who loves and someone who is loved.
The main character in the game who suffered death repeatedly for a happy ending.
A boy who continued playing games to escape from tragedy.
It was a time between two people with a somewhat unique relationship.
