181 – love?
“Are you afraid? Jim’s wife, Jim?”
Charlotte’s eyes twitched slightly.
Charlotte had endured all the provocations that came with Olivia’s ridicule, starting with the ridicule that she was a virgin, but she couldn’t just ignore this one.
Olivia raised her voice even higher, not caring about such a reaction.
“Why are you pretending not to see the truth right in front of you? Huh? You can never be loved by Master, so why can’t you accept it? I don’t understand you guys. I love Master. And Master loves me too. It’s simple. But why are you trying so hard to deny this? Why are you trying to undermine and ignore this simple fact? You can’t get close to Master. You can’t be loved. Because Master only has me. Why on earth do you not know this? Is it because you’re scared? Because I’m the only person Master loves, so it’s hard for me to accept that? Accept the reality. The only place where you can lie down and where Master can find rest is next to me. I am the only one who can save and love Master in this world. Because, unlike you, Master shows his sincerity. .Because he truly loves me and shows all his emotions. Can’t you believe it? Then I’ll prove it. Why am I different from you guys?
He seemed to be muttering a lot about this and that, but it was all nonsense. I didn’t want to hear any more bullshit like that. Charlotte snapped her fingers.
Absolute zero swallowed Olivia and her surroundings whole. Countless fine ice crystals sprouted on the surface of the black mana, where frost could not form.
The extreme temperature cut off even the sound. Black mana, which had been swaying as if it were alive, stopped its activity. As the shimmering spread, frost rose.
“Bloom, O flame.”
At Charlotte’s command, a single ember fell on it. It was purgatory, the flame that contained the heat of hell.
Extreme heat and extreme cold clashed violently, drawing out the power of the opposite. Repeatedly, the frost evaporated and turned into liquid, and then the liquid was frozen again.
The atmosphere, unable to overcome the rapid temperature change, caused deafening explosions in succession. The black mana covered by the explosion continued to fluctuate, but Olivia looked fine.
Olivia grinned. Seeing that unpleasant laugh, Charlotte reached out and drew a magic circle.
“Have you ever been whispered to Master that you love him?”
It would be more accurate if I tried to draw it. Charlotte stopped what she was about to do as soon as she heard Olivia’s next words.
Have you ever heard a boy tell you he loves you? There was no There were countless times when Charlotte said that she loved her or liked her, but not once did the boy say anything like that.
Because of this, he was hoping that someday he would definitely receive a love confession from her husband. The deadline for that one day was being pushed back a bit, but that was the case anyway.
However, I ask if you have ever heard whispers that you love me saying that you will prove why you are different from this side? Charlotte’s brilliant mind immediately recognized the meaning behind it.
It was as if that damn bitch had heard a word with that meaning before.
“Has Master ever told you that he likes you? Has Master ever shown sincerity in what you do? Has Master ever shown sincere emotions? Master smiled joyfully in front of you, got angry, sad, and normal. “Have you ever acted like a human being? Never. I’ve never seen Master like that. Of course. My Master isn’t the kind of person who would reveal his true feelings to you. I know. I know everything. Master was sincere with you.” “I’ve never had an enemy. Why do you think I know? I’ve looked into Master’s memories. My Master has never treated you wholeheartedly. Do you think that’s why? Huh? Huh?”
Despite Olivia’s words pouring in like a rapid-fire cannon, Charlotte did not respond. This time, there was something really stuck.
Her Giabi has always acted like a detached person. It was extremely rare for him to show his emotions in front of Charlotte, Serena, or Christine.
No matter what the three of them did, they didn’t get angry, and most of the cases passed it off casually, saying that they could do it.
In almost every situation, he did not lose his cool smile, and even if he was angry, it was hard to find a situation where he was sincere.
A boy has always been a boy.
“It’s because there is only me. Master’s heart is filled with this Olivia. Master will never forget me. Never.”
“You can’t forget it? I’ll prove what you said was wrong, so give me your head here. Within a month, no, within a week, I’ll completely forget about your years and make you fall in love with Jim’s body.”
“Giggle, that’s stupid. Do you think it’ll only last for a week or something? Master has never forgotten me since the first time we met?”
“Then, I’ll forget about it now.”
“What about you guys?”
Olivia has already shed an unknown amount of ridicule.
“I don’t know why Master didn’t show his sincerity to you guys, but Master said he’ll make you forget me? Are you joking? Really, isn’t it funny at all?”
Before he could finish his words, the space was divided in two. Olivia restored the collapsing space with a gesture of her hand. Both of them were workshops made in an instant.
Charlotte annoyedly prepared the next magic.
“You’re stupid. You’re really stupid. You don’t know your subject matter, and you don’t even know that Master and I love each other. You’re doing everything to get in the middle. I know how much Master loves me and why he ignored you. Should I tell you? Huh? Should I?”
next.
Charlotte’s left pupil, torn vertically, read the flow of mana. Looking at the timeline was useless for that bitch, but as long as she could read black mana, she could do anything.
If you interfere with that bitch’s black mana and dismantle the magic barrier—
“I told you before. Master is afraid of you. You have to love only me, and you have to give all that love to me only! Because you can’t do that if you become like me! For my sake and to keep your love for me, Master is sincere to you all.” You didn’t reveal your true self! You’re just tools that don’t matter if they break! The only one Master truly loves is me!”
Charlotte stopped moving.
It was because he had correctly pinpointed the core meaning of what Olivia had just said, ignoring all the nonsense of a psychopath who said, “Do you love him?”
To sum it up, this was it. Serena, Charlotte, and Christine were afraid they would change like that bitch, so they kept their distance.
Charlotte retraced everything the bitch had said earlier. I cut out all the useless rhetoric and all the crazy talk about love.
Yes, it felt like all the scattered puzzles were finally coming together.
The reason why the boy reacted particularly sensitively to the words of kidnapping or confinement. It was clear that he had already been kidnapped or imprisoned by that bitch in the past.
Although I didn’t get a definite answer, it was as if I had already received a definite answer, considering that that bitch kidnapped the boy as soon as he appeared in the world.
It was clear that the boy was using black mana when he heard the news that black blood monsters and black mana had appeared and tried to exterminate them.
Black mana was what that damn bitch dealt with, so of course he would want to get rid of all those in sight. Reminds me of things from the past or whatever.
and last. The reason why he didn’t show his sincerity to Charlotte.
‘… … dear Why didn’t you tell me that something like that happened sooner? If I had told her, I could have hidden this personality.’
Although her fundamental personality would not change, at least she was willing to change her outward appearance. I don’t know about the other two years, but it was possible enough for Charlotte.
Of course, as much as it can’t be revealed on the surface, it will be more thoroughly trampled under the surface.
“By the way. I’m so jealous of that.”
The smile on Olivia’s lips disappeared.
“I’m the only one who can be Master’s tool, and I’m the only one who can be used by Master. I’m jealous that there is someone else in the world who can be like that other than me. So, you guys will never kill me. He cheated on my teacher without even knowing. I will definitely save him and stuff him. So he won’t die forever.”
A muddy stream of black mana that bloomed in an instant attacked Charlotte. After reading the flow of the black mana, Charlotte gnashed her teeth and opened the dragon’s eyes to the limit.
He stretched out his left hand and concentrated mana. As a result of synthesizing the information that the brain just screamed and received, it was not a type of attack that could be avoided by avoiding the muddy stream of black mana.
Because all the time and space of the swept area were intertwined, and it was something that was clumped together like mud in one place with its original shape destroyed.
I couldn’t avoid it, and I couldn’t block it. I absolutely had to knock it out. Pure mana gathered in his outstretched left hand.
Dragon’s Breath. The violence of pure mana, erasing everything in the world and burning everything in the world was the only thing that could defeat it.
“So, what did that mean?”
Charlotte was not shocked when she discovered the shocking truth that the boy had subconsciously made her uncomfortable and treated her pretentiously. He didn’t get upset or lose his temper.
I just regretted that I should have hidden my love a little more thoroughly.
“Indeed, if Jim’s wife is like that, it’s something that can be changed.”
Saying I didn’t like it also became saying that I didn’t hate it when turned upside down. Because human emotions were not something that could be classified so accurately and dichotomously.
And that was enough for Charlotte. Even if there were no positive emotions, if there were no negative emotions, I could fully grasp the possibility.
Charlotte herself had no intention of changing. Because Charlotte doesn’t regret what she’s done.
Because she doesn’t regret capturing women who cling to her husband, torturing them, causing them to explode with jealousy, and monitoring their every move with magic.
So, it was just a matter of changing Giabi’s perception.
Charlotte would be different from that crazy bitch. She must be a bit jealous, but she will be able to become a devoted and kind wife who will thoroughly obey Giabi’s words.
“Jim is different from a bitch like you.”
A torrent of pure mana was fired at the black mana that shuffled space and time.
“I’ll make it clear here. Jim’s wife, I don’t love you.”
Two opposing forces collided. No sound was heard. It wasn’t because the power they collided with was weak, it was because the black mana and the blue mana collided and swallowed up even the sound.
Paradoxically, it became quiet because it was too loud.
The blue light was swallowed up by the black shadow, and on the contrary, the pattern of the blue light driving the black shadow occurred over and over again. Fragments of mana splashed in all directions.
Light and darkness exchanged endless battles. The space where Mana competed with Mana was erased, and time was distorted. Due to the twisted time, the mana that had already disappeared reappeared.
“……What?”
In the middle of such a fierce battle, Olivia glared at Charlotte with a stern face.
“Didn’t you understand? Then I’ll tell you again and again. Jim’s wife will never love you. A bitch like you doesn’t deserve love.”
In the end, the two powers could not penetrate each other and disappeared. In the place where the torrent and muddy current collided, even the space was completely erased, leaving only a world with literally nothing left.
The world around him began to crumble. At first, fragments the size of fingernails fell little by little, but soon pieces the size of the palm of my hand rolled down.
Without even paying attention to the crumbling world, Olivia asked again.
“Now, what did you say?”
