79 – Regrets
I chased the spirits for a long time, and thanks to that, I was banished from the spirit world and came to the middle world.
“It’s a pity that I couldn’t make a contract with the spirit.”
But training in pure mana floating in the spirit realm helped.
Returning to the village and eating at an inn, I heard a surprising story.
‘The demons invaded.’
I was taken aback by the sudden invasion of demons.
‘Did the invasion happen so quickly in the first place?’
I put down the alcohol I was drinking and listened to the men’s stories.
“So. When the hero raised the holy sword, thousands of demons died on the spot!”
“I heard that there are many strong beasts in the Pandemonium? I heard that there are also monsters? How do those people die all at once?”
“Because a warrior is that strong. A guy who has never been to a battlefield is Hun-su?”
“Because it doesn’t make sense, how can one person kill tens of thousands?”
“Of course it makes sense. Every time the holy sword shines, the demons disappear!”
“Isn’t this guy bluffing with a story he heard somewhere while running away from the battlefield?”
“Let’s see. He’s a guy who’s never even killed a beast!”
Listening to what the men were talking about, it seemed that it had been about two weeks since the war broke out.
‘I’ve been in the spirit realm longer than I thought.’
I never imagined that such a big thing would happen in Middle-earth.
I hurriedly paid the bill and bought the horse at a high price.
And whipped his horse in the direction of war.
The sun had set and it was night.
I didn’t sleep and kept moving.
All the soldiers around were conscripted, so I didn’t see any patrollers.
Strangely, I felt anxious.
I was in a hurry to whip my horse, so I chose the wrong road.
Originally, I was supposed to climb a different mountain, not here, but ended up on a strange hill.
It was difficult to find the way because the route was not properly marked on the map.
Tuduk. Tuduk.
Thick raindrops fell several times, and the rain poured down like a hole in the sky, narrowing the view.
It was difficult to guess the direction because it was in the forest.
Even if I tried to see the constellations, I couldn’t see the stars because the sky was full of dark clouds.
‘I should have brought a compass.’
The wind blew from all directions, and the rain stung my eyes.
I freed the horse, which kept falling, before it was seriously injured.
I took out a health potion from my inventory, drank it, and ran towards the place where the war broke out.

The incident flowed as the unconscious flowed.
It was difficult because of the terrible memories, but I was able to endure it.
Because Robert always saved me at the end.
The more I did, the more my feelings for Robert grew.
Since I came to this world, I have experienced a lot, and now I know.
What I needed was neither an emperor of the empire, nor an heir to the Grand Duke of the North, nor a genius wizard, nor an underworld master, nor an elf or a beastman.
Just Robert was all I needed.
At that moment I realized that I was in a dream.
When I realized that I was in a dream, the world looked a little different.
The doors are lined up from 1 to 10.
Tracing my body location and memories, I have passed through the door of Room 9 so far.
‘Is the dream at the door of Room 10 the last?’
As I was looking away, a door opened farther down the hallway.
It was the last door, number 10.
My body, moving like a character in a game, entered the door of room 10.
As if the words of dozens of people were overlapping, the loud sound was repeated several times.
My vision was twisted several times, and finally the place I arrived at was a cold prison.
‘This is where I was kidnapped by Antares.’
The moment I saw the last door in No. 10, I expected it to be here.
Because it happened most recently.
Blood splattered in front of my eyes.
My white clothes were dyed red.
Looking up, I saw Antares torturing a man I met a long time ago.
His head exploded like crushed tofu, and he spilled so much organs and blood, yet the man opened his mouth as if he had something to say to me.
Tortured Antares did not see the man puckering his mouth.
Antares stared at me to see my reaction.
A strange expression that could only be called a smile appeared on her pale white face.
The corners of his mouth curled up.
He often made a snorting sound and his eyes curled into half moons as if laughing.
But the pupil looked straight at me.
The shape around the eyes is smiling, but the eyes are not.
It seemed that only deep darkness remained in his eyes.
Then, as bright red blood squirmed and crawled out of the darkness, Robert appeared.
‘Ah…’
As always, when he was in a desperate situation, Robert showed up to save me.
Robert appeared at the place where lumps of smooth organs were floating like jellyfish in the blood filling the floor.
The mere sight of Robert reappearing in a place where someone was screaming and blood was bursting and the floor was full of organs calmed my mind.
Beyond being stable, just seeing Robert’s face made me feel happy here.
Encountering Antares, Robert began to fight.
I was worried just in case, but luckily Robert was winning even in my dream.
The shining Robert was huge like a giant, and Antares, who handled the shadows, was small like a dwarf.
‘I’m winning more overwhelmingly than I actually saw…’
Fighting in the brilliant light, Robert seemed invincible.
‘As expected, my man.’
While he was frantically coveting Robert with his gaze, Antares suddenly collapsed and the fight ended.
‘Is it over now?’
Just when I thought about it, the sound of sizzling stimulated my ears.
Before I knew it, I was in a universe full of weightlessness.
And once again, the surrounding scenery changed.
I woke up to the sound of laughter in the drowsy sunlight.
From noble mtl dot com.
‘This is Robert’s mansion.’
As I approached the window and listened, I could faintly hear a man and a woman laughing through the sound of the wind.
‘Robert’s laughter?’
‘And with a woman other than me?’
A strange feeling of uneasiness ran through her chest.
I felt like I couldn’t stay still.
I ran and pushed the door, but it wouldn’t open.
As the laughter stopped, I began to hear something sticky.
I desperately knocked on the door.
I tried to speak out, but to no avail.
Only a sound like a deflated balloon came out of my throat.
I scratched the door with my fingernails, but the door was still firmly shut.
Then I heard the doorknob turning.
I hurriedly opened the door to my room and ran frantically toward the garden where the noise was coming from.
‘No…’
Robert and the faceless woman coveted each other.
‘No. No. No. No. No. No. No.’
I wanted to run right away and kill that woman.
But my body didn’t move.
I tried to turn my head because I didn’t want to see it, but my head wouldn’t turn, and I wanted to close my eyes, but my eyelids wouldn’t close.
My body crouched down and hid behind a tree, staring straight ahead.
And watching Robert end up with another woman, my heart started to break down.
Robert has never been with a woman.
It must have been, but the love affair I see now was as vivid as reality.
Seeing the woman covetous for Robert lying there as if he had passed out before he knew it, a sticky rage rose up.
‘I’m going to kill you.’
I can’t see her face, but I will find her and kill her.
‘I’m going to kill you.’
It’s something that doesn’t and can’t happen in real life, but I’m going to kill that woman.
I couldn’t see her face, but I focused on finding other features.
Robert’s defilement also irritated his eyes.
Because of that, my heart hurt as if I had been cut dozens of times, but I still focused on finding out the characteristics of the woman.
Although it is a dream.
Even if it was a dream, I couldn’t forgive him for stealing Robert.
The woman who was raping Robert suddenly looked at me.
‘Horn?’
Then it was an instant.
Until I wake up and hear the screams of men looking for me.
“Irrel!”
When I opened my eyes, it was filled with the sound of men calling me loudly.
“Robert…”
I shouted dozens, hundreds, thousands of times in my dream, but the sound that didn’t come out came out now.
I could no longer see the handsome men around me.
I remembered the woman who had raped Robert in my dream.
The image that attacked my man.
Looking at the last woman I met, I noticed something unusual.
There was a horn on her forehead.
‘A woman with horns on her forehead… She must die.’
I had to kill them all in case Robert was stolen.
Before I ordered the man to kill all the women of the race with horns on his forehead, I had to do something.
“Where is Robert now?”
I asked the man around me the most important thing.
Yuni?
