Kapitel 12: Dance with faries (3)

"Whatever I do, it will no longer concern you."

I continued talking. Aris' face, which had been filled with anger and other emotions just a moment ago, had already turned pale.

"The more we talk, the worse it will be for us both, so stop pretending you don't know. It'll be good for you too."

"you."

"Honestly, I don't understand."

"what?"

"Isn't the story between families already over? I got what I deserved, and Mister Winslet accepted it. But now I don't understand why you're so mean to me."

"A gangster? Now, can you tell me that? Stories between families are just stories between families, and our stories are not over. You should have apologized to me."

"Apology? Will you accept my apology, Aris Winslet? What woman in the world would accept an apology from her attempted rapist? Don't you even know that what you're doing doesn't make sense?"

"...If you had apologized right away after doing something to me, I would have accepted your apology. It was you who created this situation."

that's right.

"Ha. Okay. Okay. I'm the one who made this situation like this. So what? I have no intention of apologizing to you even if I die."

"... what?"

"If you didn't want the situation to get this bad, you should have told me a long time ago. I don't think you look like the guy. But what did you do? This went on for many years. I don't think you, who are quick-witted, noticed my attitude. "that everything I did was because I loved you."

"I didn't want to lose you as a friend."

"So it started with your selfishness. Of course, I acknowledge that the crime I committed was not a light one, and I did not protest at all when I was actually punished."

"...Did you think that with just ten whippings your sin would be gone?"

"At best? Under."

I snorted on purpose. To further increase her hostility.

"As you well know, when Lancel's whipping expert whips the skin on my back with just one blow, I received ten eyelashes. If I had been a little more strong, I would have already died. At that time. Would you like me to show you the crystal ball you left behind? What does my mound look like?"

".... "

"Your father, Aiden Winslet, knew about it and didn't say anything. But is it just Taehyung's age? At least that's not what you're saying.

"Anyway, my actions are just attempts, and I suffered no other wounds than divine wounds."

"The heartache is not that light."

"You know. But I told you before. Your selfishness has made me like this. Where is the consideration for me in your selfishness? Is there pain in your heart? Do you know how much I have been hurt by your ambiguous attitude? It subtly let me know that I didn't want to lose it."

"that...!"

"Shut up. Because I don't want to listen to you anymore. great. Good luck to Ruslan. And from now on, don't pretend to know anything and don't talk to me. I get nauseous every time I hear your voice."

"ah."

Cold tone of voice. In my memory, Frax had never spoken to Ah Aris like that. But the person I am now is not the original Frax.

Now I must clearly encourage their growing hostility and pursue my own survival.

There was no time to play with personal feelings. There was no need to congratulate Aris, the relationship was already broken. Once a relationship is broken, it cannot be restored. This is because spilled water cannot be brought back.

It is true that I have affection for them. But that's why I have no choice but to treat them harshly. In order for them to survive until the end of the story, I had to take on the role of the villain.

....Surely there may be a better way. But this was the best I could do. Because I wasn't very smart and I wasn't very good at strategizing.

Doesn't this novel written now also have holes in all its settings?

In the thrilling world of novels, there was nothing I could do but follow the flow of the original as much as possible.

Even apart from Frax's body, I was just a miserable individual. I am not superhuman. Aren't you immediately taken aback by such a minor change?

We need to develop more composure. Asti's eccentricity may seem cute at first glance, but for me, the moment I deal with it sloppily, it's over.

Because evil usually converges into evil. Ultimately, if the result cannot be reversed, it becomes true evil, not false evil.

So we have no choice but to fight. So that the evil I wanted to do can turn into good in the future. Of course, when accumulated karma hits me... I have no choice but to deal with it.

I just cry because I feel sorry for the people who got caught up in me for no reason.

If things had gone smoothly as in the original, there would have been a happy ending, but due to the variables of my country, it became impossible to know when even the future of that happy ending would be distorted.

So I made a promise in my heart. At least I will help them get a happy ending no matter what. That would be the minimum courtesy as a writer.

...you can't compare survival and a happy ending, but that's something to think about later.

Anyway, the situation itself wasn't bad. There were countless stories about why I tried to rape Aris, but no one knew the details.

But now that the inside story has been revealed, I don't think there will be any more people disparaging me. The arrow will go to Aris. If I think about people's reactions to fishermen in the world I lived in before I fell in love with this novel, I don't think there will be much difference here.

Perhaps this rumor spread.

I understand why the good Frax did that. Aris has been playing with people's hearts for years.

If that happens, what will Aris think of me?

Your emotions will build up to the point where you want to commit suicide. That will soon become a goal for him.

Intense resentment will soon become the driving force. Then there will be nothing more to ask for. Aris is not the main heroine for nothing, so her potential is not a joke.

When it comes to her magic, she is almost on par with Diana, and her physical abilities are also well above average.

In other words, she is the most suitable person to be a magic swordsman. She has a much more versatile talent than Ruslan, who is a master swordsman, and will be of great help to Ruslan in the future.

I took a quick look at Aris' expression. The girl's complexion was pale, and despair was evident on her face. That's stupid. If Frax was that important, she shouldn't have been involved in fishing.

Of course, the biggest sinner is me. Because I was the one who set it that way. Perhaps the fact that I wrote this novel itself may be my sin.

I couldn't simply think of him as a character in a novel. They are not just beings that appear in words, but people who are breathing right in front of my eyes... I can't even think about that.

A feeling of bitterness washed over me, but I calmly turned my head away. Because that was right.

It seems that people's attention was drawn to the whispering sound that was getting louder. It was natural to start catching food in front of the front door in the morning.

"Let's go, Asti."

"Oh, right."

Asti looked at me with a strange smile. The expression on her face was like that of a child who had discovered a fun toy. I have bad taste.

"It's more fun than I thought. As she looked at me with an expression full of regret, I secretly let her show her true feelings..."

"Did you do it?"

Asti nodded to my question.

"Okay. Oh, of course, it's not that my mind was manipulated or anything. I just showed my sincerity. I was a little surprised that the scene was more interesting than I expected. It's not for nothing that people are fascinated by political dramas. Why are you scolding me? "

"No. Good job."

"... what?"

Asti looked at me with a puzzled expression. I guess she thought I would be angry. But Aris showing up like that actually helped me. Because she was able to motivate Aris more.

I answered vaguely to her puzzled expression.

"You don't need to know. The high devil will get better."

"What, it's not fun. What on earth are you planning? Can you tell me?"

"Looking at the situation, I will tell you when your sloppiness gets better."

"Wilty and bland? Me?"

"If you weren't so sloppy, you wouldn't have to wear a leash every day. If high-ranking demons who are swayed by humans are not sloppy, then who is sloppy?"

"...Because you knew something that no one else could know!"

"We had to consider all possibilities. Anyway, it's hard for your negligence to ruin my work. I'll tell you when I'm sure you're no longer sloppy. Not saying anything to the other person is also a problem."

"Ugh...!"

Asti glared at me with an angry expression. Anyway, I went into the classroom. I have a lot of work to do for the time being, so it seems difficult to waste time unnecessarily.
