Chapter 106 – Do You Like Fairy Tales?
Retrieving memories wasn’t a very good process.
I’ve been trying my best to get it out of my head somehow… To experience it all over again.
Moreover, the fact that I showed those memories to other people, especially Rainier, whom I hate to show the most, is very regrettable.
I never thought that Mr. Lemarck’s dagger had this ability. I should have thought that if I had been able to borrow my power, the same would have happened to Lenny.
That hasty judgment is my defeat. What… Now it doesn’t mean anything
“Um… “
When I woke up, the first thing I felt was the cold air coming up from the floor against my back, and my throbbing pain in my head.
“Head… Ugh.”
Once you wake up, your consciousness awakens in an instant.
I clutched my forehead with an intrusive headache and pulled myself up. My shoulders were sore because I was lying in an uncomfortable position.
It’s cold, and I’m hungry because I’ve been starving for a long time. I felt even worse.
First and foremost is the pain in the shoulder. As I was healing my shoulder with the flow of divine power, I heard a strange sound from the corner of the study.
I hid behind the bed and listened to the sound.
“It’s over… Uh. Also, because of me… Done… Alone again… Throw away… “
“…”
It was not difficult to guess what the situation was from the familiar sobs in the voice and the look outside the window.
Where did the image of people talking nonsense about not being forgiven or revenge because it was not enough to enter someone else’s memory at will?
“It’s so funny how you put your bow on someone else’s memory.”
“Black… Lemarque… I… A little bit faster… “
“Puh… Stupid person.”
Face-to-face, she seemed to be in a difficult state of normal conversation.
He went downstairs and searched everything, but his clothes are dirty and covered in dust. There are also many wounds caused by scratches from fragments here and there.
Perhaps her mind was pushed to the limit and she was on the verge of becoming a disabled person, her eyes were shaking wildly.
I looked at her with a frown and noticed that there was a road ring on the ring finger of her left hand. How did they find the ring in that mess?
… Let me turn my nerves off. I don’t want anything to do with her anymore.
“Huh… Heck, I’m sorry… Sorry… LeMarc, I’m sorry… “
As I was about to leave Rainier, I was stopped by her sobs.
Ah… That’s annoying. Why are you crying so loudly?
Rainier’s unhappiness must have been a pleasure, but seeing her reminds me of her image in her memory, so I can’t just like it.
The one who hugged me after I collapsed and whispered that he would take revenge on me… Its appearance. That warm and cozy embrace and a face full of complex emotions.
“…”
How can you treat me like that when you’ve been treated so badly by me?
I didn’t understand her. I don’t think she will ever be able to understand.
After all, the world is full of incomprehensible things.
Once more her irritation rises, she twitches her tongue, kicks her, and walks towards her with her stride.
Rainier, who stood at her feet, but she only cried and collapsed. Nervously, I jerked her head up to look at me.
Rainier’s eyes widened as if surprised by the sudden touch, but then her expression distorted again. Tears fell like chicken droppings from her round, innocent-looking eyes.
I said, glaring at her annoyed face.
“Ha… Think about it. Is he someone who will die so easily?”
“Eww… Que, the quest is like that… “
“Quest? Did you mention that he is dead in the quest?”
“Yes, yes, of course… “
As if asking why he was asking something obvious, Renye replied weakly.
If she’s the one I know… She must have been in shock and not even read it properly.
As expected, her pupils began to quiver as she swung her fingers in the air and checked her notification window.
“Of course… He… “
It has to be.
In the first place, only the magician of the hero party can inflict a fatal wound on the demon king. That is a proposition that even the Goddess cannot change.
In the end, it means that Rainier was once again played by the goddess’ prank.
“…Ah?”
Rainier let out a stupid sound as if her legs had lost her strength, and she sat down. Looking at the reaction, it seems that I was right.
Even though the content is different, I barely barked at a person like this.
Now, even more than the resentment of Rainier… I am more disgusted with myself who was stupid.
“Flaw… Am I right? I knew it. The only one who can inflict a fatal wound on the demon lord is you, the wizard of the hero party, and even the goddess cannot change that fact.”
“That means… “
At this point, the explanation should have been enough, but Renye crawls on her floor and asks.
It must sound so desperate. If I were in her shoes, Lemarck was in danger… Would you have acted like that?
I didn’t want to face the face that belonged to me, so I pushed Rainier away. She looked awkwardly toward her bookshelf, telling her what I knew.
“I am still alive.”
“Living… ?
“You will be executed over and over again until you lose all your magical powers. Then, if you really use up all your mana, you will die even if it’s not you. Anyway, I am alive now.”
“Ah… “
I couldn’t understand myself either. Why am I even giving this information?
“Relief… Hey… Thank god… For being alive… “
“…Ha.”
A foolish and stupid woman.
Yes, this feeling must have stemmed from her frustration with her.
Looking at her with her straight face, she slowly turned around. The final finish is not cool, but the end is the end anyway.
“Then I’m fine.”
“Yes? Uh, where are you going Chloe!”
“I told you. I’m just going to finish it and put it all down. Now that we’ve finished, let’s go.”
I have nowhere in mind… Can I be greedy enough to see Sir Phillips one last time?
Why did I live only for revenge when my precious person was close to me? Even if you get another chance… I didn’t even think about tipping a teacup with him or having a pleasant conversation.
When I opened the tightly closed door, a cold wind blew in. She clutched at her trembling body and pondered how to get down.
It entwines the divine power that has been squeezed out stitch by stitch with sincerity, and lifts the body with threads moving sky-high.
But just as he was about to get off her feet and jump off her threshold.
“…Something?”
“Don’t go.”
“…Under.”
A hand pulling the hem of the dress from behind.
When I looked back with a wrinkly look on her face, Rainier, who had just wiped away her tears, was standing there looking at me.
Don’t go, who asked whom…
I turned off her divine power again, raised her voice and spoke to her.
“Under! He seems to have sympathy for knowing my past… !”
“Sympathy? At all. I just want you to finish properly if you have a conscience.”
“What… ?”
Rainier, who said something incomprehensible, smiled.
When I looked at her with my eyes narrowed to find out what was on her mind, she let out her strange noise.
“Do you like fairy tales?”
Fairytale… I liked it and believed it was all true. Although she eventually realized the horrors of reality.
“That was when I was young… “
“Let’s be the main character. She is a saintess who goes to rescue the demon king who is about to be executed. There is no such thing in any story, right? How do you know it will appear in children’s storybooks later?”
“…”
I hope Rainie is telling me right now…
“Gee, now… Asking me to help you… ?”
“Huh. That’s what you’re talking about.”
She didn’t understand for a moment and blinked at her like an idiot.
That’s about 5 seconds. I couldn’t contain the laughter that erupted inside me.
“Puh… Puch! Why am I? You are also insane! He doesn’t even remember me in this episode anyway… “
“So you’re going to let him die twice? Because of you both times?”
I was at a loss for words for a moment and was dumbfounded… Then he gritted her teeth and glared at her.
“You don’t even know… !”
“Therefore!”
Fain!
Rainier shouted, tapping the wall with the palm of her hand.
Yes, she’s not wrong when she says she was involved in Le Marc’s death twice. It’s partly because I didn’t know that the Demon King was Lemarck at first, but this time…
“…”
Rainier’s blue eyes… No, my eyes are looking at me as if contemplating me. I stare at me
I shut my mouth and waited for another one of mine to open again.
“Help me, Chloe. I need your strength.”
Is there no stomach? It’s not someone else and you’re asking me like that.
She quietly grabs my hand and lifts it up. I closed my eyes tightly as I stared at her blankly at her grasped hands.
For sure… It must be because of the reluctance to hold the disgusting hand.
“For actions that go against the goddess… I can’t use divine power. I will be stripped of my status as a saint.”
“There is a time stop. That’s not enough. And when did you do something saintly? Just hit me.”
“But…”
“Ah, that is frustrating. You’ve been beaten enough to be beaten by that crazy goddess. Do you still want to follow that bitch?”
“…”
Rainier said while pounding her chest as if she was frustrated.
She didn’t answer and just kept her head down, then Rainier shook my arm again.
“Let’s go. As long as the work is done safely, I will give you time to atone for your sins.”
“…I could change his memory and take him away without you even knowing.”
“Ha… Really. Just yes! All you have to do is talk a lot.”
“Oh… “
Rainier put on a muddy cone hat and pulled her arm. As soon as I lost control and fell into her arms, she jumped out the door as she held me.
Of course it’s not suicidal. A disk of her water forms at Rainier’s feet and lifts her up. I mumbled annoyedly as I held her in my arms.
“You really have a flower garden in your head. Proposing to accompany me is like putting a virgin in front of a goblin. Stupid and pathetic Rainier.”
“You are really crazy too. If you’re going to get revenge, you have to do it to Jihyun or Rafe first. Why me? What did I do to you in this episode?”
“…Joy.”
I’ve prepared another terrible revenge for them, but… You don’t even need to tell me that far.
“Flaw… Anyway, good luck, Blue. No, should I say yellow now?”
“You are so crazy… Ha… Yes, Mr. Blue. Puh… “
Am I really crazy? I can only see myself laughing in Rainier’s arms as a madman.
“Ha… On the day Lemarck goes wrong, I… “
“…I only have good thoughts. Children in the Beth can be surprised.”
“Yes? Yellow, are you worried about me?”
“…It can’t be. Because they are his children. Even if it’s mixed with half-repulsive blood, it can’t be helped. Children are innocent… “
“Flaw… Oh gu oh gu, is Yellow worried about me?”
“Ugh! I’ll just kill you here and finish it! After all, I wasn’t helping you… !”
“Puhahaha… ! Okay, I’m sorry.”
If it wasn’t for him… I wouldn’t have helped.
I kept those words inside. For some reason, it felt like Rainier would grab her pod again.

“Is it true that you captured the demon king?”
“Yes, such contact has now been made. It is said that the Hero party captured the Demon King and his entourage alive.”
“Isn’t it the same with traitors?”
“That’s right. Everyone, along with the knights, are returning to the system.”
“Whoops, good.”
Iris smiled and signed the documents handed over.
I couldn’t have imagined it, but I never thought it would turn out to be such an absurd result.
She hands her papers to her vassal after she has signed them. After accepting her papers, he bent over her.
“Ah~ Miss Rainier’s choice produced such good results… Actually, the person concerned is unknown… How ironic.”
“I am a traitor who is attached to the devil. You don’t know what will happen, so be careful… “
“Are you okay. What would only one person do? Whoops.”
What could a self-proclaimed prostitute who was crazy about men do on her own? Iris thought so and motioned for her vassal to leave.
“As soon as they return, prepare the execution ceremony. I want as many people as possible to attend.”
“Yes. I will obey Iris-sama’s command.”
The ball that captured the demon king will surely bring about a big change in the succession to the throne. Perhaps the succession to the throne could be confirmed.
Rising from her seat, she took out the precious wine she had been keeping. I felt so good today.
