026. Those were irresponsible words
I hear the voices of the dead.
It was quite an old thing for him.
Because at the same time as I was born, I heard sounds I couldn’t hear and saw things I couldn’t see.
At first he didn’t realize what was wrong. That would be the case, the fear is maximized when it is invisible and then visible… Because there is no such thing as suddenly afraid of what you saw from the beginning.
The blurry shapes that he couldn’t reach even if he stretched out his hand were already like everyday life to him.
I don’t know if that’s why.
Unlike his older brother, he did not feel any resistance to killing someone.

Maybe he cut off the lifeline himself because he knew that death wasn’t the end, and that even if he died, everything wouldn’t end there.
As if to prove such an idea, there were not one or two bizarre dead figures.
In the end, everyone dies and wanders around.
That was the realization that ‘Hajin’ gained at a young age.
* * *
Is it morning? … I don’t know.
It’s surrounded by black wallpaper on all sides, and the windows are covered with curtains that completely cut off the outside world.
Since there was no clock, there was no way Endymion could know what time it was.
To add an exaggeration, I felt trapped in eternity.
The only thing that can tell the change of time is the candles that Selene needs to change from time to time as they all melt.
‘I could have solved that somehow with magic… ‘
I wonder if this is my own consideration?
Certainly, if it had not been for the melting candle, Endymion would have been secretly confused, not knowing if time would pass.
‘Thank you so much… I’m going crazy.’
If you’re going to treat me like this, I’ll let you go.
It wasn’t because Endymion didn’t know how to get angry that he was quietly tied up. Because he wanted to get out of here and get out of here.
However, unlike before, when I was impatient, I was worried about whether it was really okay to act as I pleased since I was given more time.
‘No direct harm to me.’
I thought I was going to run out of breath once, but… That was not what she intended, so she naturally left it out.
Anyway, so to conclude, even though Selene’s eyes are still turned, my thoughts keep leaning towards the possibility of going back to the past.
‘So… I’ll have to watch it a little longer.’
She decided it was premature to resort to last resort.
The door opens as soon as the troubles are sorted out. Then, embarrassed Endymion hurriedly closed his eyes pretending to be asleep. But he felt cheap somewhere.
‘Is this really useful?’
That was a legitimate suspicion.
“Ha…”
A soft sigh passes by my ears.
“Are you doing this again?”
As soon as the door opened and she came in, the savory scent that started pouring out was obviously food. Only then did Endymion realize what purpose she had come here this time.
“I brought you all to eat… And you’re sleeping again this time.”
“…….”
It should have happened at this time. However, Endymion, who remembered what happened last night for no reason, couldn’t bear to get up because of hesitation, and eventually missed the timing.
“After…”
Selene let out a deep sigh. She seemed to have put the tray down, judging by the clatter.
“Yeah… sleep, right?”
You can hear the subtle emotions of anger and absurdity in a coexisting voice.
‘Did you notice that I was awake?’
Selene showed her full-fledged movement as soon as Endymion thought that she was going to catch people.
Took-
The hand on her shoulder was sudden and startled me, but… It was so hard that he had suffered in the past, so this was tolerable.
However, Selene seems to have no intention of quelling her own feelings just by touching her shoulder, so she starts teasing her hand in earnest as if this is just the beginning.
“Sleeping peacefully like this… means that I don’t care what I do, right?”
… It’s unclear why it came to that conclusion, but Endymion was like a chimney wanting to shake her head.
However, a momentary hesitation prevented even that, and in the end, Selene was about to sweep his body like a fish out of water-
“…Haa, what kind of guy is this time…”
At the same time as her hand stopped, she muttered in a very tired voice after a while. As if something had happened outside of her, Selene forcibly removed her hand, which did not come off easily.
“I’ll be back soon.”
Jibuk Jerk- Kik- Kkik-
The sound of footsteps, the sound of a door, the sound of a door closing….
When these three beats matched perfectly, Endymion was able to recognize that she had finally left.
“Haa…”
In that short period of time, I felt very tired as if I had suffered for several years. He let out a sigh in his old and sick mind.
‘It’s a pity that something happened and I stopped in the middle… ‘
I’ll have to behave better next time. Endymion lifted her heavy eyelids with that promise.
“…….”
Thumping—!
She thought her heart was dropping.
Endymion couldn’t think of anything for a moment.
“As expected… You were awake.”
Black eyes were staring right in front of his nose.
I was watching from a distance where my nose would reach if I fell down.
“I’m sure the door sounds…”
“I pretended to leave. That way I can check whether this happened or not.”
“…….”
I am speechless.
Endymion felt a cold sweat running down his neck.
‘I thought it was to try to scoop me up?’
As expected, I should say… Did Selene already know everything? Upon learning this, Endymion couldn’t help but turn her face slightly white.
“Now… then what kind of punishment should I give you?”
“Bees…”
“Isn’t it normal to reward good children and punish bad children?”
He didn’t know when he was a child, but compared to Selene, who must have lived a remarkable life, Endymion himself was at the level of a newborn baby.
‘If I had spit this out of my mouth, the punishment that I still don’t know what it would be would have been more severe.’
Endymion has a rough feeling now.
“What kind of punishment would be good…”
The sight of him running down his whole body with shady eyes like a snake created an unusual atmosphere.
‘… Is this really the right way to delay escape?’
At this point, her doubts begin to sprout.
It was inevitable that even Endymion, who had hardened her heart to endure, was again confused by Selene’s sincere greed.
“…That would be nice.”
What is good… I’m getting a bit scared now
Selene opened her eyes and already had a satisfied smile hanging over her mouth as if she had a pretty pleasant imagination.
“Why don’t you try to tell me which punishment would be the best?”
“…Yes?”
What kind of novelty is this?
At the unexpected sound, Endymion reflexively questioned, and Selene said with a very funny expression.
“Originally, any award is something that makes me feel good, so I’d be happy if I chose it however I like… But the punishment won’t change the words.”
“…….”
Endymion, who kept his mouth shut, wanted to ask. Whether the punishment is really good for both parties.
‘But if I said that, he’d get angry again or act even more outlandish.’
He didn’t go through her once or twice, and now he was well versed in dealing with her.
“So… Let me choose the punishment I will receive, is that what you mean?”
“Yes.”
The flushed expression on her face seems to indicate that she is looking forward to it. Endymion was subtly burdened.
‘Why are you looking forward to it?’
Don’t expect it.
… No matter how much I look at it in my heart, I know that it is all meaningless. It would be a wise decision to solve the situation wisely from the situation you are facing right now.
‘What do you want from me….’
Of course, he noticed long ago that what Selene wanted was not simply not to feed her, or punishment for mental and physical abuse.
‘In the first place, the prize looks like that.’
Even if it’s a bee, what’s the difference?
Leaving her miserable heart behind, Endymion slowly looked at Selene. Especially where her eyes are focused.
“…….”
“…….”
I don’t think so.
In an instant, she understood where Selene’s eyes were headed. However, Endymion denied it for the time being. Because there was a good reason.
‘This is… Dangerous.’
If you don’t intend to put an end to it, you shouldn’t listen to it. If life is a novel, and if that novel is romance. What Selene wanted now was a powerful shot that could end the novel.
Endymion wiggled her legs, wincing at her fighting spirit.
‘Really me… Do you like it?’
Perhaps bewildered by the implicit request, Endymion chewed over Selene’s old words.
‘For now… ‘
Let’s get over this situation. Under her premise that it was right that Selene liked her, Endymion opened her mouth albeit belatedly.
“That’s it…”
“Huh…?”
Selene, who had been focusing her attention on ‘there’ for a long time, took a posture of listening to her in an instant when Endymion spoke her words.
She felt a strange feeling because she was both mysterious and so mad, but Endymion did not express it as much as she could, she said.
“…Would that be a punishment for what you did last time?”
“Last time… if it was…!”
The corners of his mouth ascended to heaven in an instant, as if he understood, and his expression showed that it was difficult to hide his joy.
Endymion looked at it and wondered if she had picked the wrong one, but she said she had no other choice because there was nothing else she could think of.
‘If she had asked to speak directly, or if she had received an unflattering reply, she would have had her own way.’
That was something I wanted to decline. As if the word fear of the unknown was not for nothing, she must have been thrilled because she didn’t know what else Selene would do.
So the lesser evil I chose instead was the last ‘that job’.
‘I was out of breath in the middle… ‘
Still, the fact that Selene really craved it is something that can be proven by the fact that she never took her mouth off her for a long time.
“You mean that…?”
Selene asked with a blushing face. It was a little uneasy because of her excited expression, but Endymion finally nodded her head.
“Yes.”
No big deal. She had already been through it once, she thought, and that was relatively good enough for her.
This was an idea that stemmed from the arrogance of knowing Selene to some extent.
“Eup-!”
That day, Endymion was randomly(?) Beaten until he passed out.
