Chapter 52 – 6.4 Love Hotels
I should have killed him then too.
It wasn’t about keeping him alive out of complacency.
Heat porridge.
Kill the heroine before she is humiliated.
I should have followed Seong-hyeon (Unicorn)’s words.
Like I killed Shuji, I should have killed him without any regrets.
“Fuck…….”
I hesitated even for a moment.
It was a mistake to let go of the mindset of not wanting to die.
I am human too.
It didn’t taste good enough to kill a woman who didn’t want to die.
If I can save someone, I want to save them. Even if I have to kill someone, I don’t want to kill them with my own hands.
Of course, there is such a level of human sensitivity.
Akane didn’t want to die.
Wanted to live It’s also very cruel.
Is it because I died once? Akane’s obsession with life was especially great.
I wasn’t prepared to shoulder Akane’s death like that.
I hoped to live quietly in a place where I couldn’t see. Or I hoped that I would die quietly in an unknown place.
So I closed my eyes.
Killing and saving, the weight of what you have to carry is knowing which is heavier without weighing it.
Even though I couldn’t take responsibility, I saved Akane’s life.
“──What are you doing?”
Akane looks up at me with ferocious eyes.
The look was very rough.
And it was pitiful.
Akane, whom I recognized as the world’s wicked woman, was not there.
There was only a poor girl who was wounded and abandoned.
“I don’t want to die.”
Like a kitten wet in the rain.
Losing parents, losing friends, losing everything and dying.
There was a broken Akane, like a stray cat who had not lost her ferocious temper.
“What are you, what are you! What are you doing hitting me? Who are you to disturb me! Knives, what are you, what are you, what are you…… !”
Akane’s struggles were buried in tears.
I quietly looked down at Akane.
“…… Do you even sympathize with me? Under! Yes, it will look good It must have been funny to see him pretending to be so proud and then being abandoned by his parents, and also by Yuu, and still struggling ugly to live! Are you satisfied now? Are you satisfied with taking everything from me and letting me fall like this!”
『I want to live….』
“Or what? Are you here to kill me again? Yeah, i’d rather die It’s better to die than to live like this. Didn’t you just kill it from the start? Why did you save me like this, like this…… Miserably… It’s making me miserable…… Why me….”
Akane’s behind-the-scenes words were drowned out by the sound of crying.
Akane is completely broken.
Even the last bit of miasma was drained, Akane fell on her knees in front of me and cried.
“…… Save me, Knives…… I don’t want to die…… Help me, Knives…….”
………… Really, she’s a stupid woman.
If only I had been a little more honest from the start.
If only I had shown a little more humane side.
If I did, I wouldn’t have had to die.
Then there would be no selling to the laboratory, no abandonment by Yuuki, no prodding in front of me, the one I hated the most.
You should have been able to become Yuuki’s heroine.
Stupid.
So stupid,
I, equally foolish, couldn’t let foolish Akane die like this.
I threw my umbrella over Akane’s already wet head.
“Follow. I will help you.”

Love hotel.
If there are motels in Korea, there are love hotels in Japan.
Love hotels are basically unattended and you never run into anyone else. It can be said that this is the result of the reflection of Japanese people’s shady and shady tendencies.
“Come in.”
Akane calmly followed me and entered the love hotel room.
Akane didn’t ask why they brought her to this place.
Akane already knew that she could restore her mana with the semen of a man with a rune holder. Maybe she heard it from that mad scientist too.
And Akane, while she was coming this far, she was determined to do so. She is determined to survive even if she receives the semen of Knives, who is like her enemy.
Well, of course, I didn’t bring Akane here with that in mind. She was only brought here because this is the most secret and safest space.
Akane, too, may react strangely like Akatsuki-sensei if she is suddenly subjected to intense magical energy. If she had a voice like that at home, my sister would surely have a strange imagination.
It was precisely for that reason that he had brought Akane to a love hotel rather than her house.
“Ruler.”
I took a towel from her bathroom and handed it to Akane.
I already wiped it with a towel and it wasn’t to the level of sleeping, but it’s better than nothing.
“…….”
Akane silently wipes her hair with the towel I gave her.
Right now, her Akane’s condition was not normal. She said that once she died she was alive, so of course.
The original rune holder recovers her lost magical power over time.
However, Akane’s remaining magic power was only gradually diminishing. Like water leaking from a bottomless dock.
In the original work, she also had a character with similar symptoms to Akane. A character suffering from a rare disease that automatically reduces her magic power.
The character also lived on in a way similar to what Akane imagined, but in the end, it only met a miserable end.
I pulled moonshine beside Akane, who was drying her hair with her towel.
“Yes.”
Akane is taken back by the flashing blade.
Did she remember even when she was stabbed by me?
Huh. Even if it remains as a trauma for the rest of your life, there is nothing you can do about it.
You have committed sins too, so accept that much.
I left Akane alone and cut her finger with her blade.
The stinging pain passes.
Then, she held out her finger, which was slowly dripping with blood, to Akane.
“Suck.”
But Akane looked blankly at my outstretched hand, then she looked at my face again and spoke cautiously.
“Blood…… Drinking a little blood can’t hope to restore magic…….”
“Ha…”
I let out a big sigh as if Akane had heard me.
Akane put on a tearful expression, as if she thought she had been ignored.
“Listen, Akane. Drinking blood is not important. The act of ‘sucking’ itself is important.”
I don’t know what Akane heard from the mad scientist.
Maybe drinking blood doesn’t have much effect, or something like that.
That’s right. One blood pack for transfusion is only 1% of human blood. Assuming that mana is spread evenly throughout the blood, even if you drink an entire blood pack, you can only get 1% of the mana.
So the important thing is not to drink blood. The act of ‘sucking the wounded area’ is important.
“Probably those humans didn’t suck blood directly from the wounded area. At best, they would have taken it out and drank it separately as if donating blood, or would have taken it out and injected it into the body like a blood transfusion.”
I don’t even know the principle of absorbing mana.
Perhaps, it is my expectation that when someone is injured, mana is temporarily concentrated in the affected part to repair the wound, and before that mana works on the affected part, he can absorb the mana by sucking it into his mouth. It is the same principle as when a straw is inserted into a balloon filled with water, and the pressure is released through the hole in the straw.
“So don’t talk nonsense. You say you don’t want to die?”
“Ugh…….”
If you listen to Akane’s mind, you can tell that she’s in a really dangerous state.
Rune holders who have lost magic usually pass out and wake up when their magic power is restored.
However, that was about a rune holder that automatically recovers magic power. You can wake up because your mana is restored while you are fainting.
However, what if the mana does not recover?
Seeing that Akane died and then came back to life, it would not be possible to say that she was completely dead, but she would not wake up on her own. It’s practically the same as being dead.
“…… Transformation.”
Is this the last stand?
Akane smirks at me and throws out a word.
Huh. Looks like you have room for bullshit.
Even in Akane’s mind her, which was full of dark clouds, her anxiety was clearing a little.
“If you don’t like it, don’t.”
“Who, who doesn’t like it?”
As I try to remove her hand her, Akane quickly grabs my hand her.
What is pervert I’m like this. Consider yourself lucky that you are not forced to semen.
-Chung.
Akane carefully put her finger her in her mouth her and started sucking it.
Glancing at me, looking at me, like a newborn baby sucking its mother’s milk.
I could feel the magic draining away along with the blood.
…… Good thing. What if I didn’t?
“Really… Magic power is coming in.”
Akane didn’t completely believe my words until just before that.
However, when her body began to be filled with magical energy, she finally put her mind at ease.
The fact that she didn’t have to die, and that she didn’t have to live on receiving the semen of the man she hated, made Akane barely relieved.
“Laugh. Chun, Chun. Black……”
Akane shows again the tears that she thought had just stopped.
Huh. I’m a gentleman, so don’t pretend you don’t know. Akane wouldn’t want to appear weak in front of me either.
Instead, I’ll look at the rain-soaked breastbone of her. You saved my life, so that’s okay, right?
“Ah!”
Suddenly, Akane’s mind shakes.
“What, what? What’s the matter?”
My mind, which had been secretly peeping at her breasts, was shaken as well.
Didn’t you get caught? No, it doesn’t matter if you get caught. Aren’t breasts cheap? It’s a lifesaver. I don’t even see it live.
However, it was not such a simple matter.
“Magic power leaked out…….”
Akane put her hand on her chest and said.
It’s not to cover your breasts from perverted eyes.
Where Akane had been stabbed by me once, she held down the blood leaking from her heart as if to stop it.
“…… Are you losing your magic power? How much?”
“Now…… Almost all of the magical power that came in…….”
“All?”
“There’s a little bit left, but almost…….”
A dark cloud hangs over Akane’s mind, which was barely relieved.
The drop was great. Akane was in severe shock.
She barely lived, she thought. Even if she thinks she has been tricked, she can’t help it. It was as if she had picked up something that had fallen on the floor and then thrown it back. There was no way she wouldn’t be shocked.
“…… Me, Knives, what should I do? What should I do?”
“Calm down. Because she is thinking about it now.”
And she was shocked, and so was I.
I am neither a doctor nor a scientist. There is no way to know how to deal with such an unusual situation.
All I know is that this world is trash.
It’s just that this world is the world of that garbage insult game.
…… Ah.
Is it.
Was it like that
“…… Nice…… Kuck.”
“…… Knives?”
Akane calls out to me, who suddenly started laughing as if I had gone mad.
However, I couldn’t stop the laughter from leaking out.
How could I not laugh at my own foolishness of struggling aimlessly, at my own misery of repeating the same failure.
I smiled to myself with her head down, then met Akane’s eyes again as she lifted her head and looked at me anxiously.
And she said
“Akane. Let’s have sex.”
