178. Decision to break up
“Kyaa! It’s Assistant Professor Erwin and Schluss Heinkel!”
“Are you two dating?”
“There’s no way that’s the case with men!”
“hehehehe. But the two of them look really good together.”
“Is there something common among commoners?”
When I was walking with Erwin, I kept hearing absurd sounds.
Is it natural for women to make couples with men wherever they go?
But this case was a little different.
“How about you grow some hair?”
“Noisy. What do you care about?”
“I think it would be pretty if you grow it.”
“Noisy…”
The point is that Erwin is actually a woman.
She’s definitely tall and has short hair, but if you look closely at her face, the pretty thing is that it’s just a woman’s face ······.
No, is that because you knew I was a woman?
A stranger could mistake her for a man who looked like a parasitic brother.
“Why are you dressing as a man? The faculty knows everything anyway.”
“It’s a habit.”
“A habit?”
“Yes. Everyone doesn’t want to use women for dangerous things. That’s why I’m in the habit of dressing up as a man, so even at school… AC. Why are you telling me this?”
“·······.”
Didn’t you say she was supporting her younger siblings all by herself?
It seemed that he was also doing hard work outside of school.
“Then why are graduate students doing it? They give you a small amount of money.”
“You can’t just work for the rest of your life… When your younger siblings grow up, you have to go to college and get married.”
“Hmm… Do you need money?”
“What? Why all of a sudden? Give me some money?”
“Uh.”
“·······.”
Erwin glared at me with a straight face.
To be honest, I’m a bit sorry.
She even has a spell in her heart and works like a slave. If there is no reward, she will stab me all day long and wait for an opportunity to escape.
I just thought I should give her some carrots instead of swinging her whip.
“Huh. How much? I thought I’d give you 100 Tyrion to feed my younger siblings-“
“Fifty thousand tyrions a month.”
“What?! Don’t be ridiculous. Are you trying to laugh at me when I’m surprised? I don’t have money, but I have pride. I won’t take it even if I really give it to you.”
“Hey. Get down on your knees.”
“Huh?”
“Get down on your knees.”
“Hey, here?”
“·······.”
Do I have to say it twice?
From noble mtl dot com.
As she stared at her with a serious expression, Erwin looked around for a moment and then she quickly knelt down.
She must have realized that there was no point in resisting, so she had better end it quickly.
“Do you still have your pride? Tell me.”
“Now, I don’t have any pride…”
“Yes. That’s how it should be. Don’t talk nonsense. Take the money. I’ll give you 50,000 Tyrion a month in cash.”
“Okay…”
“Stand up now.”
“·······.”
Erwin stood up, shaking her body.
Her eyes, which had been staring straight ahead until just now, were fixed on the floor before she knew it.
Maybe it’s because she just moved the heart spell slightly and made a ticking sound.
He seemed very frightened.
“Don’t do anything dangerous. You’ll hurt yourself.”
“Yes…”
“And grow your hair. I think that would be pretty.”
“Yes…”
I patted Erwin on the shoulder and went on her way.
Isn’t 5 million won a month not enough?
All she wanted was that Erwin would be able to feed her younger siblings lots of delicious food without harming her body.
She showed me that she has a warm heart too, so now she won’t let Erwin try to stab me.
.
.
.
Tak clap clap clap.
Erwin’s feet trembled as she sat on her bench, making the sound of her stretching.
Erwin said she smoked her cigarette once and then let out her smoke with a cough.
“Crazy bastard.”
I didn’t mean she did manual labor.
I didn’t know that my thoughtless words would bring about such a result.
I never thought you would even consider getting hurt…
In addition to that, she was forced to take money.
“What are you trying to do…”
It was reasonable to see this as an allowance for extra work to be done.
I’m dying just to be a spy within that insane secret religious group, so what else are you going to do here?
Even that job seemed to require a healthy body and long hair.
“Stop, no way…!”
Her Erwin blushed as she recalled her worst potential.
A real madman.
A nerd.
A devilish bastard.
“Cough! Cough!”
Cursing at her elongated Schluss Heinkel, Erwin sucked on a cigarette he couldn’t smoke well.
***
-We are at war now. The evil group that attacked the Imperial University is a cult group that worships evil spirits…
The emperor made an official statement.
It was an official declaration to inform the public about the existence of the fanatics and to stand up to them.
Furthermore, the name of the cult was decided.
-I’ll call them Asylum.
Asylum.
It was called the same name as in the original work.
It was strange that even though the original story and the original story were quite different, in some parts it flowed the same as the original.
But if you want everything to be like the original, that would be greed.
“Is the final exam coming soon?”
Black tea was poured into the cup placed in front of me.
As I stared at Schluse’s face reflected in it, the milk poured in and the tea turned cloudy.
The last spoonful of sugar was poured in and the spoon stirred the tea.
“Time seems to go really fast.”
“That’s right.”
It was as Emilia said.
It’s quiet and peaceful these days, so it felt like time was passing quickly.
Of course, peace is a story above the surface, but a fierce and dirty fight continued below that.
I heard that Hani Ervin passed the entrance test and became an official member of Asylum.
The good news was that he was in danger of being kicked out because he was not tested even after receiving the power of the devil in the early days.
Since that test is killing people, I had a hard time trying to soothe my mental breakdown for a while.
The Secret Service has been busy running around lately too.
The Empire’s counterintelligence agency went around with lights on to catch a member of Asylum, and even the Secret Service was nervous.
I was worried that they would foolishly cooperate with Asylum, but after listening to the Heart Locker’s regular report, it didn’t seem like that.
I hear that a similar group is crawling out of the kingdom.
The kingdom is also wary of Asylum, but since it is still a force that attacks the empire, it seems that they do not want to be hostile.
“Are you going today?”
“Yes. Thanks for the coat.”
“Who is her brother’s favorite person? Erika? Or her sister? If not, the Countess?”
“It’s not like that. How many times have you told me that you’re doing psychological counseling for Erica’s sister?”
“Hmm. Is that so? Well, I’ll fool you for now. Do well.”
“·······.”
Emilia’s eyes were very persistent.
I tried to ignore her Emilia and left her house.
I’ve been going to see him almost every day lately, since I’ve had quite a bit of free time.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is the pleasure of life these days.
After thinking for a while on the carriage, I arrived at the Lichtenburg Mansion in no time.
“You’re here. Julia······ Ah, no, Mr. Han Ah-reum is in the garden.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as I arrived, Erica came out and opened the door.
It felt like home now.
I took the lead in opening the door, but the maids didn’t say anything.
I reached the garden as fast as I could.
“Have a good time.”
“·······.”
The door slammed shut.
As usual, he was sitting in a wheelchair in front of a table in the middle of the garden.
I walked slowly in front of him and pulled a chair and sat down.
Then he opened his closed eyes and smiled faintly.
“Are you here?”
“Yes. How are you? How are you feeling?”
“It’s the same thing.”
The same questions and answers as always.
Since I was like this, I remembered when we were dating in the past.
Even if it was a date, it was just going back and forth around the narrow hospital grounds.
Anyway, something was strange today.
Should I say that the atmosphere is different?
“It reminds me of the old days, doesn’t it?”
“I see. Were you in a garden like this then?”
“You are not alone.”
“Huh? What are you talking about, brother?”
“What’s my name. Tell me.”
“Ah…”
“What are you doing here, Yulia?”
“·······.”
That’s ridiculous.
As expected, it wasn’t that guy, it was Yulia.
I was almost fooled.
I wouldn’t have recognized you at all if I had done just a little bit of acting.
“Just… I want to get to know Schluse-sama too.”
“Why are you with me?”
“Wouldn’t it be natural for me to want to know about the person I’m dating with my body when I’m sleeping?”
“·······.”
I had nothing to say when it came out like that.
It certainly makes sense.
During that time, even though she used Yulia’s body, she rarely talked to Yulia herself.
She must be curious about Yulia as well.
She knows what kind of boy the little schluss she once met grew up to be.
“This book…”
“Oh, that’s it. It’s a book that appeared on my bookshelf one day.”
“·······?”
“Don’t you believe it? I was also amazed. It was like a book from another world.”
The title of the book on the table was Romeo and Juliet.
A tragic story of a man and a woman coveting forbidden love ending in suicide after thinking each other was dead.
“Interesting. That book.”
“Huh? Have you read it?”
“Yes. I’ve seen the same book before.”
“It seems that this wasn’t the only thing that appeared. It’s amazing. Come to think of it, in this book…”
Inadvertently, I pretended to know, but I was able to just move on.
I wonder if it was exciting to see someone who knew this book show up.
I had to tell the story of Yulia and her book for a while.
Still, it was by no means a boring time.
The feelings of Romeo and Juliet seen from the perspective of people in this world were quite new and fresh.
“Ah… Did I take up too much of your time? After all, it would be better to change it soon, right?”
“Then thank you.”
Yulia smiled shyly and then slowly fell on the table.
Her black hair hung down in a wide scattering.
“See you later.”
“·······.”
Yulia’s eyes slowly closed.
Right after that, she opened her eyes and looked up at me.
The eyes have changed.
I was sure this wasn’t Yulia.
“How was it? Were you tricked?”
“You taught me.”
“So when did you get caught? Huh?”
“I noticed right away. It’s because the atmosphere is different from you.”
“Huh…”
Your smile was so lovable.
That’s why it hurt even more.
From here on, we could talk about reality.
From noble mtl dot com.
That’s why we deployed a cognitive suppression system to prevent Ms. Erikana from hearing it.
“What are we going to do today. I’ve been custom-made playing cards? Just like the old days, with these-“
“Brother. Let’s stop now.”
“·······.”
It felt like my throat was suddenly choking.
I desperately swallowed the tears.
“This kid, I don’t show it outwardly, but it’s going to be really hard. Every time I fall asleep, I wake up, so in reality my body can’t rest at all. So these days, every time I wake up at night, I just close my eyes and lie still. I’ll be very tired though. . Look at the dark circles around the eyes.”
“·······.”
It is lightly described as a nightmare, but in fact Han Ah-reum’s possession was quite a big deal.
Because it was an act that made Yulia’s already weak body work even harder.
I knew.
I knew it, but I couldn’t bring myself to say that I should stop because of my greed.
“You know there’s no way to revive me. Even if you let me live here, what if I go out after seeing the ending? Outside, I’ll still be dead. It’s no use.”
“Wait a minute. How do you know you can get out if you see the ending?”
“Ah…”
You made a mistake.
Caught.
The guy was avoiding my eyes with a troubled expression on his face.
It was a look that I could easily see whenever I was caught lying.
I asked as I picked up the book.
“You brought this book? Did you create this world?”
“·······.”
It was a silent answer.
That’s how it comes out.
I put my hand on the handle of the sword and said.
“What is this world? Is it a dream? So if you commit suicide, can you wake up?”
“Oh, no! It’s not a dream!”
“So what?”
“Ah…”
“Answer me, Han Ah-reum.”
“It’s not a dream… But it’s hard to call it reality…”
“Are you a god or something?”
“No. I just made it up, I’m not omnipotent. After I died, my brother couldn’t write the whole novel. I made a wish and it turned out like this…”
“That comment. It was you.”
“Yes…”
I laughed.
That comment made me angry and started a keyboard battle right away.
It must have been written by a guy who knows how to piss me off.
Now that I know that, it’s just absurd.
“What would you do if I told you not to see the ending? What if I said I wanted to be with you forever.”
“While overtaxing this child’s body? I know that my brother is not that kind of person. And the ending will come in one way or another. Even if all the crises are overcome, the day will come when the world will eventually perish. I will return to, and I will not be there.”
“Don’t say that.”
“I’m already dead. Don’t be an idiot and admit it.”
“I know…”
“If you know, let’s stop now. He’ll die like this. Where did the resolution we made last time go?”
“·······.”
My teeth were grinding.
When I looked at him, he had a bitter smile on his haggard face.
“Let’s finish it now. It’s hard for me and my brother to do more than this, you know?”
“It’s the last… The last.”
It’s okay for one last time.
I can give you that much.
I pushed off my chair and stood up and approached him.
.
.
.
“Huh?!”
Schluse suddenly walks over and kisses Julia and her.
Erika peeped through the crack in the door and hurriedly threw the door open.
Erica hurriedly ran through her barrier.
Yulia, who had fallen asleep before she knew it, was lying flat on her desk.
Schluss suddenly raised his left hand to the ring and muttered something to it, then walked towards it calmly.
“What are you doing! Who said you could kiss me?!”
“Your sister’s nightmare has been cured.”
“What?”
Erica felt her heart sink.
The nightmare has been fixed.
It wasn’t Erica who didn’t know what that meant.
Erika grabbed Schluse by the wrist as he tried to pass by without a word.
“No, are you kidding?”
“No more ghosts will haunt your brother.”
“·······.”
Dude. Pop.
Tears fell on Schluse’s shoes.
Stunned, Erica let go of her hand.
Schlus roughly wiped his eyes and left.
The dead can dream forever, but the living must continue to walk forward
