181 – [Side Story] Student from the East Continent – 40
“…Prince Rex?”
In a dry voice, she calls her favorite person.
But he turned and walked away without even looking back.
“Prince! Please wait! Prince Rex!!”
A precious item that maintains who you are today.
Despite the fact that he is moving away from her, Sherry is more sad that Prince Rex is moving away from her than that thing.
I immediately ran out to chase him.
“Secure it!!”
“Hold on!!”
Soldiers who were following behind them appeared and immediately overpowered Sherry.
Obviously, he had ordered his familiar, Bedrpolnir, to keep a close watch on the surroundings.
Nevertheless, Sherry was caught off guard by the soldiers who suddenly came out and was pushed to the floor.
“Evil!!”
Sherry screams from the shock of being crushed to the floor.
But Prince Rex walked away without paying any attention to her.
‘Why?! ‘Weren’t you supposed to save me?!’
Sherry is in a panic in an unbelievable situation and can’t even think of getting out.
A high-pitched voice entered her ears.
It was a voice I never thought I would hear in a place like this.
“It’s over now, Sherry Hayworth.”
Sherry Hayworth.
At the sound of her voice calling her real name, which had already been buried deep in her heart, Sherry’s spirit came back to reality. She tried to raise her head to look at the owner of the voice who had called her name, but she could not raise her head because of the soldier’s grip on her head.
She could barely see her feet standing in front of her.
Luxury shoes with a slightly rough, green reptile leather that you have never seen before.
The student wearing these slightly off-the-wall shoes was the only one she could remember.
“Sir Wentoth…”
“Now he’s finally showing his tail. I feel a little uncomfortable because it seems like he took advantage of Prince Rex, but…I don’t think I can delay it any longer.”
Originally, Prince Rex’s feelings for the real Alyssa Leifert.
And, although twisted, Sherry Hayworth, who plays Alyssa, has feelings for Prince Rex.
She did not want to use this strategy of exploiting people’s hearts.
However, the fake Alyssa, or Sherry Hayworth, went too far.
If this continues, the girl named Alyssa Leifert may not only have a place in this empire, but the entire continent.
Due to her own personal feelings, she did not want her innocent girl to suffer further harm.
Fortunately, Prince Rex waved his hand at Syr’s apology and said he wanted to cooperate, but…
“What are you talking about…? Who is Sherry? I’m Alyssa…”
“…You already know everything. There’s no use in denying it.”
“What on earth are you saying…?”
In Sherry’s ears, several footsteps could be heard coming from around her.
“Please let down your hair.”
“Are you okay?”
“…I have some understanding of her curse. It’s not that high level.”
After the conversation passed, the hand that was pressing Sherry’s head was removed.
When she raised her head, there was Sirwenthos looking at her with his usual calm expression.
And next to her, there was a maid wearing a hood.
Prince Rex returned and stood next to the maid.
I was angry at the sight of him standing there protecting the maid, but they weren’t the only ones there.
Alyssa Leipert’s father, Viscount Leipert, was present among several soldiers and unknown adults.
“Father!!”
Sherry calls out to Viscount Ray Pert, her face brightening.
At her voice, Viscount Rayffert looked at her.
“Father! Please help me!! There is some misunderstanding…”
Sherry was trying to plead with Viscount Ray Furt, but she was left speechless.
As soon as the Viscount saw her, she frowned and looked as if he saw something disgusting about her.
To her, unable to say anything, Sir Wentoth spoke again.
“Didn’t she already say she knew everything?”
“…Why…Why?”
“Did she think she would do such a terrible thing… And not get caught?”
Saying that, Sirwentos nodded her head.
What she is pointing at is none other than the maid standing next to her.
The maid seemed to hesitate for a moment, but she seemed to have made up her mind and nodded as Prince Rex, who was standing next to her, took her hand.
Then, she took off her hood and lowered it.
“Huh…?”
Seeing her face, Sherry’s expression collapsed.
What was underneath her hood was her face, which was her own face just a few months ago.
Because she had Sherry Hayworth’s face.
Although her eyes slightly softened and her impression changed, there was no way she could forget her own face over the years.
“Uh…How…?”
“We protected her from our side. And we heard everything about her from her side.”
“This is ridiculous!! Her eyes and neck were completely crushed to the point where even her magic couldn’t recover them…”
After hearing Sherry’s words, she seemed to be unable to bear it any longer and Viscount Rayffert rushed towards her with a roar that was almost like a scream.
If the soldiers next to her had not stopped her in her haste, she might have attacked her.
“You b*tch…!! You mean b*tch!!”
“Calm down! Viscount!!”
“To my daughter…!! Such a mean thing to my daughter!!”
The excitement was so great that the trained soldiers were almost dragged away by the Viscount.
Seeing her like that, Sherry’s expression turned blue as she realized belatedly what she had said.
“No…No…You just said that…”
“I will take this as a confession. Sherry Hayworth.”
Sherry keeps making mistakes she wouldn’t normally make.
That much, she was now in a state of mental confusion.
Did you know? Since when?
Sherry Hayworth, when was the real Alyssa Leipert rescued?
Prince Rex, since when did you know this?
The situation was so confusing, she felt like her head was spinning.
She desperately thought of a way to get out of this situation, but there was no way there was such a thing.
She desperately called for her familiar, Vedrepolnir, but there was no response from the messenger either.
“Ahahahaha…”
There is no way.
In the end, Sherry muttered in despair.
“…What are you really?”
“……”
“I’m the main character now! Why did things get to this point because a kid like you showed up?! A kid like you wasn’t in the original story!!”
Sherry cried out in a voice that was almost like a scream.
As Sir was listening to her, a story came to mind.
When was it?
It was probably soon after the younger siblings were born.
At that time, Sir was in trouble.
As she grew older, Cyr often thought about her position as the new world tree.
At some point, she had to leave her father and mother and return to her position as the World Tree, orchestrating and ruling this world.
But on the other hand, she also had a desire to protect her younger siblings and live like a human with her father and mother.
It was when her mother, who gave birth to Leone, briefly returned to her in-laws’ home in the warm, fresh air for postpartum care.
Her younger sister Calia, who especially followed her mother, Riel Wentos, followed her mother and left for Duke Ignis, and her newborn younger brother also left together in the arms of her maid, Luca.
Sir also wanted to follow her mother and younger siblings to the Duke of Ignis, but her mother said that if she left her father alone, he might get into trouble, so she stayed in the county.
The reason was a little strange, but it was probably her mother’s consideration to prevent her father from being lonely in the county alone.
Anyway, there were two people left in the count family, my father and Sir.
I spent a few days like that, going for a walk with my father after work, going out to the village to eat delicious food, and going hunting, etc., So I had a pretty fulfilling day.
And on the day when her mother’s postpartum care was over and she was scheduled to return to the county, her father came to visit Sir in the middle of the night.
Then, she told me a story about herself.
From Noble mtl dot com
A memory from before I was born into this world.
In other words, there is a story about having memories of a past life.
He also told us that this world existed as a storybook in his previous life.
Although it was a hard story for Sir to believe, his father’s story was serious.
My father said.
This world does not proceed as the story tells.
He was afraid of the content of the ‘story’ and made a mistake when he was swayed by the content.
So, Sir, there is no need to fix the direction of your life by being tied to the position of the world tree.
The expression on my father’s face when he told this story somehow looked very relieved.
And, upon hearing that story, Sir’s heart became very light.
It was still difficult to understand the concept of past life, but if you think of this world as a story.
Isn’t Sherry Hayworth in front of us a similar case?
But Sherry Hayworth eventually fell into the conceit that things would go according to the predetermined story.
In some ways, this can be seen as the complete opposite of my father, who was afraid of the story progressing in a set way.
What a foolish child.
Humans are not creatures that live according to their predetermined fate.
“…You’re admitting it, right? Sherry Hayworth.”
“Ha…hahahaha…Okay, so what can you guys do?”
“What?”
In response to Sir’s question, Sherry spoke with a desperate, but mocking face.
“The only way to return this body to its original state is if I lift the spell! Even if the medium is destroyed, the soul will not return to its original state!”
Sherry said that and laughed like crazy.
“hahahaha…hahahaha!!! Do you think I’ll return it to the way it was? I absolutely don’t want it!! You’ll have to live the rest of your life in that tainted body!!”
“…Ugh.”
“You damn b*tch!!”
Alyssa trembles as if Sherry’s words brought back bad memories.
She was transferred by Sherry into Sherry’s body and sent to Changguan with her eyes and throat damaged.
Of course, you must have encountered bad situations many times.
Her Rex hugged her shoulders as if to comfort her, and Viscount Ray Furt rolled her eyes and expressed her anger.
Sherry Hayworth laughed like crazy, as if mocking them.
But in reality, she was the person she wanted to ridicule the most.
Sir Wentoth’s expression did not change.
And, after a while, she opened her mouth.
“It will work.”
“What?”
“Returning my body is something I can do with my own strength.”
Sherry’s mouth dropped open at the unexpected words of Sir, who smiled brightly.
“However, if the curse medium remained, even if it was reversed, it would be reversed again. That’s why it was necessary to secure the medium.”
After saying that, Sir Wenthos turned around.
There, Liliana Wentoth was sitting on her floor doing something of her own.
The process of drawing lines using raw fish powder on a rocky floor.
This is a technique that Liliana Wentoth took a long time to create, and it completely returns the curse to nothingness.
Of course, it is possible to use ordinary spells used by church priests, but if you do so, the curse will bounce back to the caster.
Because the bodies of the two people are switched, if you curse in this situation, damage will be caused to the real Alyssa Leifert, who has the body of the curse caster.
So, in the process of finding the medium and executing the curse, the power of Liliana Wentoth was needed to completely eliminate the curse’s rebound without returning it to the caster.
And now that both Liliana Wenthos and the vectors of the curse were in hand, it was time to break the curse.
The time has come to put everything back in its place.
