43 – That’s not love!
hell.
Beyond that, I couldn’t come up with a better word to describe the current situation.
A terrible pain that touches in an unblunted sense.
In the midst of it, she screamed countless times in a voice that did not come out.
I’d rather die like this.
Please do not restore yourself.
The act of letting out screams while experiencing it several times was enough to make her mind tattered like a rag, even though her body had been restored intact.
But,
In a mind like this that would break at any moment.
She took a chance that came close to…
In fact, I started begging for one last chance to escape this hell.
please listen to your own story.
Just once is fine, so please let me tell you the truth.
Just like that, an opportunity that was narrowly obtained.
In response, she began to speak, squeezing out all remaining strength in her mind, which seemed to be destroyed at any moment.
Why did she abandon him…
The fact that she loved Cromwell so much that she joined in this out of a desire to monopolize his affection.
And, the fact that we have been gathering evidence to turn everything around at the last moment.
“… So that means… The reason you helped them was because you wanted to monopolize my love… You mean this?”
After her story, Cromwell asks a question in a quiet voice.
To this, Olivier nodded eagerly and said:
“Yes! That’s right! jeon… leaflet… It’s only because I love you with all my heart! Change your mind for choosing Clara over me… In order to make sure we get rid of the other troublesome guys… ”
“Sigh… ”
“That… But I really didn’t know that it would turn out like this… sorry… really… I’m really sorry, Captain!”
“… ”
Captain Cromwell let out a deep sigh at Olivier’s words.
Then he remained silent for a while, looking down at her in silence…
Seeing it, Olivier felt anxiety, fear, and a little hope.
‘this… Did you understand?… I… That I did this out of love for you, Captain… ‘
The result was the worst, but she was proud of her intentions anyway, and she began to think that Cromwell might forgive her.
And,
Cromwell’s answer to her words was…
-Pak!!!!
“Keah uh uh uh uh!!!”
Cromwell draws his sword and cuts off one of her arms.
In response to his actions, Olivier felt excruciating pain and struggled to ask questions.
“all… leader… sir… uh… why… ?”
“why? You, then, now hearing that, I’m sure you did all that because you loved me… Did you think you would forgive me? As love, the people around him… Where is the chief who is a deputy, a longevity, and a baby in this confrontation? ”
“That… but… That… It’s all because I love you… ”
“Stop talking nonsense, what kind of love is making the other person unhappy? Why don’t you cut off my limbs so I can’t run away anywhere?”
“… ”
Olivier can no longer say anything at Cromwell’s words.
Certainly, as she progressed, she knew that this was excessive in many ways.
However, despite this, she went ahead with this while ignoring the fact.
While telling myself that everything is because I love that man.
But.
At this moment, Cromwell’s words hit Olivier, who had been rationalizing himself all along.
In the end, all of that…
All the things we did while talking about love.
The fact that it was just the words of her ugly desire.
So, as the ugly facts hidden under the guise of love began to be clearly recognized,
Olivier finally realized what she had done.
Blinded by love, he plunged the man into hell.
He sent his colleagues away to a distant place, or made them involved in dirty work.
As a result.
The man became a completely different person and left the Imperial Army.
In the aftermath, numerous subjects and soldiers of the Empire were killed.
like that,
After belatedly recognizing what he had done.
Recognizing how irreversible she had done by being obsessed with her desires.
Olivier began to feel that his spirit, barely maintained, was being shattered and breaking apart.
“… under… hahahaha… Ahahahahaha!”
Olivier let out an empty laugh.
Even in extreme pain, as a result of the collapse of the fact that was barely supporting her,
She couldn’t say anything more and couldn’t help but laugh.
And,
“Sigh… ”
Cromwell let out a deep sigh and stretched out his hand toward her again.
Immediately after that, her body, which had been cut off, began to be restored to its original state.
A situation that seems similar to the process of torture that has been carried out countless times so far.
But,
In the process of recovering the body at this moment,
Olivier began to feel something else enter his heart.
Olivier’s mind, shattered and scattered like fragments.
In her heart, which had been so messed up, something warm suddenly flowed in and began to wrap up what she had gathered.
“Really… Because you are an unanswerable subordinate… ”
Cromwell’s words with calm complaints.
However, that word, which seemed meaningless at first glance, began to approach Olivier with an extremely caring feeling, as if healing a wounded soul.
Even though it’s just simple words, his voice is so calm and deep generosity.
While feeling the sense that it heals one’s heart,
Olivier’s empty eyes began to come alive again.
“… all… . leader… Nim?… Huh!”
With a trembling voice, Olivier calls out to the man who restored his sanity.
But shortly thereafter, she began to shudder again at the sudden revelation.
‘west… no way… Now, is this also an extension of the previous one?… Again… Trying to inflict pain by breaking my body and mind from the beginning…
A frightening fact that can only be naturally recalled through the experience that has been going on so far.
Olivier trembled at this,
As it was, I moved my body overflowing with vitality to the extent of passing it by, and began to bow my head urgently to the man in front of me.
“all… Captain! My… . I… I was wrong! all… never… I will never do anything like this again! ah… from now on… From now on, the captain’s faithful slave… ah… No, I will become a dog that absolutely obeys the captain’s orders! That… So… So please… Please forgive me just once! that… Such terrible pain please… ”
“… ”
Cromwell remains silent without responding to Olivier’s pleas.
The moment I felt my fear grow more and more as I watched his reaction,
Olivier suddenly began to recall another hand that had been forgotten by the intense torture.
“ah… That… right! this… this… I’ll give you this, Captain! My… I brought it with me when I left the imperial army… ”
“… ?”
Olivier hurriedly takes out the things he had stored deep in his bosom.
Accepting it, reminiscent of a black marble, Cromwell expressed a question in a quiet voice.
“What is this?”
“Yes! That… that is… It’s a magic tool I developed… If you infuse magic into it… ”
Olivier answered in an urgent voice.
Regarding this, Cromwell fixed his eyes on the black orb, feeling quite curious.
*
“therefore? Are you saying that in the end you were satisfied with making them slaves?”
“Yes, for now.”
I answered Franklin’s question in a calm voice.
Even though the result was so dog-like, it was a situation where there was room for extenuating circumstances in that it was not done with direct hostility towards me anyway.
Plus, crucially, I couldn’t help but resent her for the Franklin in front of me more than anything else.
‘Even if you do this or that… After all, thanks to that, I was able to meet this woman like this.’
To put it bluntly, if she hadn’t been blinded by love and hadn’t stabbed me in the back, I wouldn’t have flowed into this world, and I wouldn’t have made a real lover, not a virtual one.
Of course, that doesn’t mean my hatred for the other bastards who openly betrayed me went away, but at least I decided to give her one more chance as she at least tried to clear things up and was apologetic.
There, one more thing.
There was another crucial reason for my decision to forgive her.
“There… There’s nothing I can do about it since I’ve been given this.”
“yes? What is this?”
The black orb that came with those words.
Upon receiving it, Franklin expressed curiosity and began examining it…
To this I spoke in a serious voice with a smile on my lips.
“That bitch did something funnier than I thought. In the office of the Governor-General of Maple.”
“!…”
Torture her to vent and to know the true reason for the betrayal. With a normal interrogation Cromwell would not be sure of the truth because in the game they did not explain it.
Good.
NGL I’m not okay that she was tortured, but I am happy that the MC isn’t a complete sadist and is now giving her a chance to redeem herself after she apologized and explained the reasons for her stupid, warped actions.
