A World Where You All Are The Villains - Chapter 65.2
“What should we do now?”
“You go to the grand ducal manor and inform them of his location.”
“You don’t mean… you’re just going to leave him here?”
“Then should the two of us drag that body there ourselves?”
At my words, her expression turned solemn.
She obediently said she would go to the grand ducal manor, but I quickly grabbed her.
“Wait. Do you know where the grand ducal manor is?”
“…You don’t? It’s right in front of the Imperial Palace. It’s famous for being even more magnificent than the palace itself…”
“……”
“Well, you might not know. You did lose your memory, Milady.”
No wonder he told me to go without even giving directions…
As I let out an irritated sigh, Eston spoke with concern.
“Milady, you should take the carriage and go back now. If it gets any later and the sun comes up, they’ll find out you went out secretly.”
“Alright.”
“Then I’ll go!”
After bowing quickly, she disappeared beyond the alley at a brisk pace.
I also pushed myself up from where I had been sitting.
‘Ugh, I’m dying…’
After rolling around underground all night, my whole body ached.
Just as I started walking back toward the carriage.
“Ugh…”
A faint groan suddenly came from behind me.
I kept walking.
Eston had already treated him, so he wasn’t in any immediate danger.
Besides, hadn’t he said it himself?
That he wouldn’t die from something like this…
“…Ha.”
I stopped abruptly and bit my lip hard.
Then I turned around sharply.
‘What’s wrong with me. What is this, some kind of female lead syndrome?’
I had already done everything I could.
I had followed his instructions properly, and even had him healed on top of that.
‘So what more am I supposed to do?’
Even as I muttered that, I couldn’t stop myself from turning back.
Step.
In the end, I stood in front of him again and glared down irritably.
“……”
Was he having a nightmare?
Male Lead #4 was still deeply frowning.
Even with his eyes closed, his foul temper seemed fully visible.
‘What’s so attractive about a guy like this…’
Letting out a short sigh, I slowly closed my eyes.
And when I opened them again.
Woooosh…
From the ground where the man lay, a sinister aura began to rise.
Black, translucent smoke wrapped around Serge’s entire body in an instant.
Like water slowly submerging him, it crept up his form until it finally stopped after covering his lower face.
Dark miasma swirled just beneath his closed eyes.
It matched the number exactly.
Up to this point, it wasn’t much different from when he normally used his ability.
Except for the gray specks scattered densely across the black miasma.
Like faint stars in a hazy night sky, the pale lights flickered, dimming as if about to disappear, then shining again.
‘…Hesis.’
I had suspected it, and now I could see it.
There was another energy besides miasma.
Which meant the target of ‘Purification’ wasn’t limited to miasma alone.
It was an unexpected discovery about my ability, but it didn’t make me happy.
‘In this damned world, how many things are there to purify besides miasma anyway.’
If I hadn’t listened to what Serge said, I would never have known.
‘I shouldn’t have asked if he was addicted to Hesis.’
Regret crept in.
Even if I had noticed, I should have just pretended not to know.
― …That amount doesn’t even put me to sleep anymore.
Because I heard that.
Now I couldn’t just ignore him and walk away…
After staring at his tightly furrowed face for a long moment, I bent down with a sigh.
Then I reached out and covered his eyes with my palm.
The warmth against my hand was hot.
Whether from the injury or the hallucinogen, he seemed to be running a fever.
I whispered quietly to him.
“…With this, I don’t owe you anything anymore.”
So don’t you dare wake up later and say you got hurt because of me, or that you’re my lifesaver.
If you do, then seriously, never again…
“…Purify.”
Green light burst from my palm.
