Chapter 28 – Some Things Are Good Not Knowing.
The contract infused with demonic power is written in red on black parchment using each other’s blood.
The moment Hellbroom takes the contract out of the air and Rike unfolds it.
Ugh-
Hands with pointed, black nails appeared in the air and pointed at Hellbroom.
Breach of contract.
The eyes, tongue, and limbs were neatly taken as if they had never existed in the first place.
“···!!”
After the bloodless extraction was completed, the hand disappeared.
It’s a while to miraculously continue to breathe.
“Only… Only… Like this…”
As soon as the first line of the contract was read, Rike’s sword cut off Hellbroom’s throat.
–
Shoot aaaaa
As soon as we started to return to the capital, it started to rain.
Even if it rains, I don’t know if it’s cold or wet.
‘I want to sleep···.’
I want to avert my eyes from the harsh reality.
However, the moment I closed my eyes, I was afraid that I would see the nightmare of that day again.
The world, which has been looking for colorful colors for a few days, is dyed in black and white again.
It was only today that I thought that my persistence had come to fruition…
Click-
Her body came down and her feet touched the damp floor.
I looked up and saw the main gate of the academy standing majestically under the evening sky.
“…If something happens, feel free to tell me. It’s my job to finish this job completely.”
“····”
He lowered his body and tidied up my rain-soaked bangs with a careful hand.
My feet were stiff and I couldn’t move, so he also stayed in the rain.
–
I wanted to know how to lead my body and climb a distant mountain.
First of all, I moved my feet and looked for a way to climb.
I thought I had finally crossed the big mountain, but when I looked down from the top, all around me was an abyss.
‘I… What should I do from now on…’
Since childhood, Rike thought that anger was an inexhaustible fuel.
No matter what point I reach, I must not stop exhausted until I see the end of this work.
Will never stop
Back then, I could even assure you that this heart would never be broken.
However, the reality he faced was worse than the worst he thought.
I felt like I would forget everything in an instant and become an idiot.
Cheap-
‘…?’
The sound of rain still hits my ears.
I no longer felt the sensation flowing through my head, so I looked up at the floor.
Roman took off the clothes he was wearing and covered them over his head.
Taking off his outer garments, I saw his clothes, torn in tatters and completely discolored with blood.
As he got wet in the rain, he could see the traces of his life up to this point.
Scars covered the whole body.
Those blood and wounds were created by my greed.
I saw it with my own two eyes.
Didn’t your heart stop beating after you asked for it?
‘If we stop here…’
Selfish year.
I almost hesitated when I let others get involved in dangerous things.
In the rain that pierces the body.
What Roman and Rike felt from each other now was a sympathy.
*****
‘I need to finish well…’
It wasn’t that there wasn’t anything to worry about.
Still, Ricke would do well.
After seeing Rike walk into the academy dormitory, she returns home.
Dispose of blood-stained clothing and wash yourself with warm water.
The request I received now has been completed piecemeal, but I don’t feel that relief when I finish the request.
The look on Rike’s expression as he looks at her contract several times and makes a futile expression flickers.
The desperation that asked me if there was any possibility that this could be a lie.
“If I go and slit his throat now… Will the affair really be ruined?”
I am the current head of the Skadi family.
I saw a lot of people like Enoch Skadi.
A guy like that was in his previous life, he was here, and there is no place he doesn’t exist.
I want to become stronger than anyone without a purpose.
A person whose desire burns in comparison to a shapeless goal.
If you can get a chance, people who become ‘something like that’ at the level of their family.
–
The two met through Hellbroom’s mediation.
The transaction between Eugena Di Venta, the 3rd Knight of the Empire, and Enoch Skadi, the family head, was simple.
Naturally, I teach her own arcane swordsmanship to Enoch Skadi.
In return, Enoch Skadi handed over the recruit of his wife, Juana Bright, and cooperated and condoned the situation that would arise.
On the spot, Enoch Skadi accepted the offer without hesitation.
He didn’t even ask what he was doing to Bright Street.
Their purpose, which Enoch did not care about, was simple.
The target is the Bright family artifact.
Artifacts passed down from generation to generation by the head of the Bright family have the property of belonging.
Therefore, there is no way to use it unless the owner changes after the owner dies.
Nemanatas also thought of raiding the family without a deal with Enoch Skadi, but she didn’t like that either.
It’s certain that things exist, but you don’t know where they are.
The head of the Bright family was not even a person to open his mouth as an advisor.
It is known for having an unbending spirit even though it is a powerless family.
A person worthy of the name Bright, and a person who is completely opposite to the black magician in terms of personality.
I need time to put everything aside and slowly turn over the Bright family and investigate.
That’s what happened and what happened is the current situation.
It is the method of Nema Natas, rooted in the power class.
‘I don’t know if the empire is eating moths.’
There is only one reality that Rike, who has read the contract, must accept from now on.
It is the fact that her father sold her mother and the Bright family to one swordsman.
–
Tuk-tuk-tuk-
Rainwater dripped as Rike walked down the unlit hallways of her dorm.
The cool shadowed eyes and tightly closed lips tell her how she feels.
A conversation with her father now will make it even clearer.
What I promised myself
A desire to kill all those involved regardless of good or evil.
You promised
‘There are absolutely no exceptions.’
What I promised that day was neither the stroke of childhood nor the light heart.
–
Kiik-
Returning to her dorm room through the hallway, Rike took out a box with an antique pattern that had been tucked away in the corner of her.
Even after she entered the academy, she hadn’t sorted out her luggage, so she was still full of unopened boxes.
Rike picked up her box and sat down at her desk.
Click.
When you open the dusty box, there is a marble with brilliant light rotating in a spiral.
Artifacts that can exchange voices with each other.
Looking at the entire empire, the means of long-distance contact are extremely rare.
Even prestigious aristocratic families can count on one hand the places that have it.
Artifacts that can be contacted are sure to be coveted by everyone.
The last time Rike used it was in her mother’s presence.
She thought that the servants of the family had forcibly packed it and put it in her luggage, but she had no use for it.
Touch the brilliant orb to the hand of the Marquis of Skadi.
The light that went back in a spiral goes back in the opposite direction.
Fit!
Light gathered in the center.
“Father···”
〈〈 Has the lady of the Marquis of Skadi forgotten even basic etiquette? 〉〉
A cold voice that shows that it’s annoying.
Even though she didn’t see it with her own eyes, she felt her emotions.
“There is something I want to ask you.”
〈〈 ···Just keep things simple. 〉〉
The whole body’s senses scream.
You shouldn’t ask.
But I want to know
There really might be a chance.
“Do you love me?”
〈〈 Huh! I don’t know the meaning of asking such a question. Has his damned mental illness been cured again? 〉〉
Rike grabbed her glowing orb with both hands.
“Dad… Tell me just once. Did you love your mother, even if not me?”
〈〈 ···Still being caught in the past, you are undermining the status of the marquis family. It’s hard to understand why you’re so weak after inheriting Skadi blood. 〉〉
Threads of blood boiled from Rike’s eyes.
It felt as if red liquid would flow out of his eyes at any moment.
“…Father. There is something that my father has always taught me to believe.”
Don’t look back at the person behind you.
Be on the lookout for those walking by your side not to go ahead.
Make the person in front look behind.
〈〈 ···Yes, I remember it well. So what are you doing right now? Disappointed and annoyed. 〉〉
The hand holding the artifact trembled.
His voice grew louder and louder, driven by a surge of emotion.
“The beliefs that my father speaks of are not noble… They are just excuses to justify one’s actions!!”
〈〈 ···This bitch is crazy to dare to shout at the householder!!! The family’s defective product…Quit the academy right now… 〉〉
“I’ve made up my mind. My blood has never been more cursed than today… The next time… The next time…”
Damn-!
The orb that used to glow in Rike’s mana split.
“I’ll kill you… Heo Eok- Heo Eok-…!”
Rike slammed her head on the table and grabbed her breasts as her heart split in half without hesitation.
She reached out with one hand, grabbed the only book she had out, and held it in her arms.
“Haa- Mom…”
As she inherited Skadi’s blood, her own body was loathsome, but she, who received her mother’s blood, was precious to herself.
Life-your life-now this space-the moment you breathe is so empty.
Why is the world so cruel and without even an inch of mercy?
Coming just sex leave crying
