Chapter 299 – Extraversion 4. Marianne (9) – Confused
Chapter 299: Abduction 4. Marianne (9) – confused
〈 This episode is from Marianne’s point of view.〉
Shoot aaaaa…
“I’m really sorry.
At first, as you know… I was only thinking of getting revenge.”
Klopp.
Barely swallowing the cry
Throat twitching again and again.
“My mother, father, brother…
Didn’t he die during the demon king assassination operation?
All the bastards who participated there, I just thought I’d kill them all.
Haha… So it started.
You guys know too
Because I said it myself.
However… Little by little, little by little
Know… ?
Your memories are untouched, so you will know that I really loved you.
I mean, I don’t really know why…
I was sincere.
I really fell in love with you
I can’t do that…
I’m a demon, and you’re a human.
You are my enemies… They deserve to be killed…”
Shoot it
Really… Really?
We, the enemies of our parents and siblings… Did you really love me?
What happened to your hair?
When you look at a woman, the genitals control the brain?
Crazy, crazy!!
Are all male creatures like that?!
Like Philip who coveted Rebekah and her fellow nuns?
Like Alberic and his knights of the battlefield who work out their sexuality with prisoners of war and kidnapped civilians?
Do you know that you are a more noble being?
“I love you so much…
I can’t hurt you anymore
I can’t even break the hypnosis,
I was just holding you in my arms
I am so happy to spend time with you… I never had the courage.
The courage to break the hypnosis on the way.
So… So I thought.
After the war is over, let’s solve it then.
If we have to hate the reason disappears, wouldn’t it be better then… I thought so.
… Actually, I don’t hate you anymore.
If there is no reason to hate me, won’t you love me too… I thought so.”
Shoot aaaaa…
“Don’t get me wrong.
My words, actions, expressions, love…
It’s all built on hypnosis.
It’s all about protecting you now… Because of the oath
I just keep my guardian knight’s oath.
I am not defending your actions.”
Shoot aaaaa…
Flash! … Kwurrrr
“Sir Angela is right.
… I’m not going to say that my words and actions are lies.
But Kamu ‘Mr.’
You said
That what I am thinking right now without hypnosis is the truth.
I am… I don’t know
I want to deny it.
I’ll do something that didn’t exist.
All… I will erase it.”
Okay.
You said too
I won’t be thrilled by your touch anymore.
Dirty.
I don’t listen to your words
Disgusting
Fraud.
Mesmerist.
Snake-like tongue.
Damn, damn, damn!!
I wish everything you said were lies!!!
I’d rather be proud of what insulted and defiled me!
Then I would hate you mercilessly!!
I would proudly hate and despise it!!
“Yes, black… I know.
What you agonize over, worry about, love…
I remember everything.
The words you whispered
The warmth you hugged.
Your confession.
I know everything.
It’s true, I know.
Believe.”
Therefore… Because you apologize!
Because you really loved me!
It makes me feel guilty for coming out like that cowardly!!
So it’s very difficult!!
Funny enough, I want to hate it so much, I want to hate it!
Then you shouldn’t believe that word!
It’s amazing how I believe it!!
Because there is sincerity…
His actions, his expression, his way of speaking, his eyes…
Really like you said me… I know it’s because I love you…
Dig.
Erase the sun spear from your hand.
Angela lowered her sword accordingly.
“Number of animals…”
“But!”
Aww…
A tightly clenched fist.
Upturned face.
A hardened expression.
Looked straight at him.
Even if his limbs trembled slightly, even if the cry surged up his throat, he patiently watched.
“I can’t accept it.
I’ll admit it.
You tried to reform the cathedral with me.
Whatever your purpose or profit, it doesn’t matter.
It’s true that you helped me and saved me.
But admit it too.
You attack me, what you have is brutal violence, and you have it by making me a puppet.
So I can’t forgive you.
Even if you change your mind in the middle… Hehe, seriously… Black, love, hehe, even if I did…
I, I… Even if I once loved you… !”
Yes I know
That I liked you too
Memories with you, in my life… It’s the most beautiful memory.
Admit it.
When you bring back those warm memories, a warm feeling of satisfaction always grows in a corner of your heart.
Because that memory makes me live in a confused world.
That makes me even more angry
Because I have to paint over those memories.
Because those memories are fake.
Because the me at that time wasn’t the ‘real’ me.
Why don’t you come proudly?!
Why didn’t you come to the herbalist?!
No, you can lock me up and insult me, so why not use hypnosis?!
If that was the case, even if I didn’t like it then, I would have at least hatred for it now!
If I had made my decision like Sir Angela, I could have been responsible for my feelings!!
A trembling voice.
I barely squeeze my voice out.
“I cannot forgive…
You just made me and Rebekah into dolls and loved them!”
“No!
Look at this!
My thighs still bleed!
Bellondel fired a poisoned arrow at the Cathedral Terror!”
“What… Say?”
“The poisoned arrow that shot Rebekah.
The poisoned arrow that made the bleeding stop.
Bellondel shot it.
So I asked did you shoot
Bellondel said so.
Not only the demon king army, but also disguised elves and humans!”
“That is true.
… I heard it while fighting together on the back of that demon.
Bellondel himself said…”
Princess Stella helped by squeezing out a distressed voice.
Bellondel.
He’s dead
A colleague I once fought with.
That he was one of those who shot Rebekah?
He is a fairy elf.
Why did you even get involved in this conspiracy?
Why is he
“Oh, that can’t be…
He was a cynical man, but he was never cold-blooded.”
“It’s hard to believe, but it’s true.
So I fought back.
I was also shot with a poison arrow, but I fought with resentment.
To avenge Rebekah!
You know that… Burying Rebekah, I really… I really couldn’t forgive them.
Alberic swung the sword at Rebekah.
That guy was Bellondel’s lover.
That’s why Belle Rondel got involved in her own play of terror.
Together with the demon king’s army who shot a crossbow at us!
I will punish those traitors.
Even those who built this temple.
Yes, I am a demon, but we think the same way.”
Raise a knife to avenge the woman he hypnotized?
Haha.
What kind of stupid is this?
“Same idea! What do we…”
“We can end this war and coexist.
I can love you!
This damn war, how much more do we have to do… ?
When does it end?
Is it over?
I’ll be honest.
It’s true that I hypnotized you because I wanted the demon king to win.
But am I the only one winning?
We can win together!
Catherine, Alberic, Philip, and the main fighters who want war!
Get rid of it and make Stella the queen!
And let’s sign an armistice agreement!
I, the Demon King, will help you!”
Your ideals seem really high and noble.
Have you fooled others like that?
Is it like that?
“Are you telling me to believe that now?
The words of the demon who controlled me with hypnosis?”
“That’s right.
It’s not enough that you dare to despise me, the princess of a country,
Are you suggesting that we bring in foreign powers to end the civil war?”
“Yes, Princess.”
“What authority do you have in a throne so obtained?!
Are you telling the people to listen to the story of a traitor who brought in foreign powers?”
“Have you already received it?
Besides, foreign powers were brought in first by Catherine and Philip.
Aren’t the attack on the saintess and the terrorist attack on the cathedral all caused by the Demon King’s army?
Besides, my current activities are definitely foreign forces.”
“Do not be ridiculous! I don’t need any help like that!”
“Really?
If it wasn’t for me, Sir Angela’s Lightblinger wouldn’t have joined Duke Dupre’s side?
Sir Angela was Catherine Parr in the first place.
The same goes for Light Blinger, led by Lassel Christophe.
So even when Marianne went to Light Blinger and asked for her help, she was adamant.
I switched to your side thanks to my hard work.”
“What nonsense…
Sir Angela, is it true?”
Sir Angela bit her fangs and closed her eyes tightly.
“Actually… No see.”
Princess Stella was stunned and sighed.
“Same goes for Marianne.
Reform of the cathedral was my goal, I had no intention of getting involved in civil war.
Anne had no intention of attracting Marianne.
Even when Marianne and I went to Princess Anne to condemn Philip for the cathedral terrorism and to just sleep in her temple, she insisted that Anne could not be stopped.
She said she doesn’t meddle in cathedral affairs.
After that, he gave up his right to succeed to the throne.
Had it not been for me, would Marianne have kept the cathedral priests from participating in the civil war?
No.
She must have been completely out of touch?”
“Miss Marianne… Is it true?”
Hot.
Under.
Okay.
The royal family dispute had nothing to do with me.
After all, I was a selfish woman who was far from the cause.
Back…
Princess Stella quietly clenched her fists.
“Don’t interfere?
Can Count Abu Bakr’s troops be drained now?
Can Sir Devot break away?
Is it okay if I go without telling you the location of Nuvacane’s lair in my head right now?”
“You know the coordinates of the nest?!
Where is that?!
How did you know that?!”
“When I was fighting the gold dragon a little while ago, I found out by rubbing my brain.
You can open the dimension gate with these coordinates and save the sickly princess.
Now that the dragon is dead, soon the monsters near the dragon’s lair will go berserk.
You have to bring it before that.”
Things are getting worse.
Princess Stella and Sir Angela are getting more and more persuaded.
Furthermore.
“Look over there.
We could all die today.”
Swish!!
Everyone looks behind me.
“!!!”
“Me, that!!”
“Unbelievable… ! I must have killed you!”
Big la la la la la la la rock!!!
A familiar roar.
The roar of the gold dragon Nuvacane.
A huge body that is revealed before long.
If there is a difference, a black tentacle protrudes from the mouth instead of a tongue.
And the fact that there are very small tentacles coming out between the eyes of the reptile.
Monstrous.
“It is bittersweet.
I tried so hard to catch him a while ago.
Now that he’s alive, it looks like I’m going to live.
Come on, Princess of the Stars.
Choose
Are you sure you don’t need my help?
Or will you join hands with me to save the sickly princess and form an alliance with the demon king’s army?”
Silence.
Thanks to this, the screams coming from around the dragon can be clearly heard.
“Ugh, aaaaa!!! Nuvacane has been resurrected!!”
“What, what?! The dragon has risen!!”
“You fool! Stop staring!! Jump out!!”
Truly abysmal.
The breath of sulfur fire evaporated rainwater even in the rain and fried the soldiers.
“Long live Queen Catherine!! Kill the traitors!!”
“The main gate of the palace is breached!! Push a little harder!!”
And then it slowly started to slide again.
Crow, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll!!!!!
The dragon’s roar shakes the heavens and the earth.
“…”
Sir Angela looked at the scene with a devastated expression,
“…”
I looked up at the sky with my eyes closed and got caught in the rain.
There’s no answer.
Realistically, the answer is no.
He must be punished and condemned.
Then there is no way to get through this reality.
“Evil Kamyu, I will join hands with you.”
“Good.”
“No, Princess!!”
“We need this man.
You must win the civil war, drive Catherine out, punish High Priest Philip, and save her sister.
Miss Marianne.
Please release this demon.”
Hard.
Bite it tight
No.
There must be some way
You can’t compromise like this.
If you give away one or two like this, one day you will give away all of them irrevocably.
“Princess, no.
This wicked one will target the princess.
Me too, Sir Angela.
I will try again.”
“I know.
Can Miss Marianne watch over me?
You’re wearing Valkyrie armor too.
I think that will be enough.”
“… I will decline.
I don’t want to be with these evil demons even for a moment.”
“… Miss Marianne.”
But there is no alternative.
No matter how much I think about it, if this person is thoroughly punished and eliminated, there is no way for me, Sir Angela, or Princess Stella to survive.
Whoops.
Therapy.
Whoops.
“…”
Activating suspension.
Dig.
“Ugh.”
Chambang, Chambang.
He collapses on the roof in the rain.
Sir Angela puts her phantom rapier in her scabbard and crosses her arms.
“… Thank you. Number of animals.
Sorry…
And I love you.”
“Bite this tight.”
Up
Aww!
“!”
I slap my cheeks with all my might.
“This is my first experience.”
Whoops!
“This is the part that deceives me.
And this…”
Whoops! Aww!!
Over and over again.
“Cool, cool.”
He spat bloody saliva into his mouth.
“Love…
Is it so.
I know.
… When you send Rebekah,
At Rebekah’s funeral,
When you bury Rebekah,
When I went to visit you in the rain like today…
I know everything.
I felt it.
Being sincere
But… I don’t know
I really don’t know now.”
I really don’t know.
Disgust and love.
Anger and affection.
Distrust and trust.
Despair and hope.
But mixed up, I don’t even know what I feel.
You, whom I loved so much, cheated on me!
I was just a hypnotized puppet, and all my past emotions were distorted and glorified!
I became a minion of the Demon King’s army, gave the whole Light Blinger, and committed an irreversible sin against Sir Angela!
I am also an accomplice in your crime.
I dedicated my whole body to you.
Even the memories of being humiliated have been glorified as something beautiful, so it’s obvious without looking at the rest.
Okay.
I don’t believe in the memories of the past or the feelings that arise when reminiscing.
Okay.
All of these feelings right now came from being deceived.
Must be
“Never… Don’t ever say that to me again
And don’t appear in front of me.
There’s something I once promised, so I’ll just let it go today.
Disappear
In front of me
Forever.
When it appears… I will kill you.”
Swish
I turn around and try to fly,
Tup!
“!!!”
He grabs my arm
“Number of animals.”
“This… Let go!”
I fight hard, but I never let go.
Don’t hold
Let go. Please.
“I, you will never give up.”
“What are you talking about!
I told you never to say that again!”
Do not say that.
Me… Strangely, my heart trembled again.
The affection my parents didn’t give me, why are you giving it?
Everyone abandoned me
My parents abandon me for lack of food, and Philip persecutes me for needing a woman.
The head of the cathedral cut me off because they wanted an obedient priest, and the military abandoned Marianne, the ‘human’, because they wanted a doll that could heal them.
But why?
Why are you holding me?
Why don’t you give up?
Pak!
He shakes off his hand and blows his cheek again.
Whoo!
He ducks his hand and then hugs me tightly.
Unfortunately, the body loses all of its strength.
Has my body been trained?
… No.
If that was the case, I would try to get out of it.
The fire in the corner of my heart, which I had struggled to step on, flared up again with just one hug from him.
“This… This you! Really!”
“I know you’re upset right now.
So calm down and I’ll definitely come back.
Please wait for me just once.”
“Sounds funny!
Let go!
You bad boy!!”
Really?
Is it because I am angry now, because I am angry at being cheated on, because I am angry that my emotions and body have been manipulated and my common sense has been altered?
Why do I bury his words in the back of my mind?
What will happen if the anger subsides?
Looking back, I really… I was happy.
Actually, I was so happy that I had a good dream that I didn’t want to wake up from.
It feels like someone blew a trumpet and forced me to wake up.
“Wait for me.
I’ll come back.
No matter how far away it is, no matter how far it is at the end of the sky
I will definitely go see you.”
“Hey, let it go, let it go… !
Uhhhhh… Bad, ugh… Child… !!
Not anymore, hehe, fooled.
ぅ, ぅ, don’t be fooled!!”
Weeping. And scream.
Hatred quenches the love that burns like wildfire, and I shake it off.
Not entangled
Don’t be fooled
Don’t be fooled again.
They must be trying to torture me.
The torture that monopolizes my most precious memories and destroys them.
Or is this even illusion? Is it a hallucination caused by hypnosis?
Actually, I’m asleep, and I’m trying to break down my mental barrier by rubbing my brain and repeating hope and despair, happiness and unhappiness?
Courage!
In the end, he ends up rolling on the floor because of my struggles covered in tears.
Dig!
Flutter, Flutter!
I cried and flew away into the sky.
“Huh, uhhh! Aaaaa!!”
Wept.
Cried and cried
I don’t know how long I cried.
Time goes by, it flows.
.
.
.
Wait for a sec.
Why do I have to cry like this?
Okay.
Let’s beat more let’s lose
Until he tells the truth.
Even now, it can’t be true that you love me.
It must have been tricked by the serpentine tongue of a shrewd trickster.
Won’t you tell the truth if you lose?
Yes, marie.
Just live selfishly
I can’t go back to the cathedral anyway.
Don’t think back
You have valkyrie armor
A small, injured demon.
Not scary at all
Just uncomfortable
No
He must be uncomfortable with me!!
Back then, I was half crazy.
Infiltrate your room using the Valkyrie armor, soundproof screen, and the status of a saint.
Click.
Are you sleeping?
The lights are off.
Kik, Tak.
Close the door and slowly move towards the bed.
Again and again.
There is a soundproof curtain, so there is no need to reduce the sound of footsteps.
Sister Agnes also penetrated in this way.
It’s very useful because it doesn’t even detect magic.
How to be my teacher sometimes.
The moment I got closer to the bed.
“The captain is not here.”
“!!!”
Swish!!
“But what is it for?”
“Ludvik… !”
The demon’s subordinate.
A red-eyed demon was standing behind the door with his hands in his pockets, staring at my back.
