I'll Make It a Bad Ending Like a Villain

Chapter 135

Filina hurried over, startled. Grabbing him by the shoulders carefully, he opened his mouth.

“Lee, are you sober?”

At the sound of her voice, Li raised her tightly closed eyelids. Then I looked away, wondering if the sun was hot in my eyes.

“…… Philina.”

His helpless voice was heard.

Looking at Li with concern, her face drew a clear smile.

“Yes, I’m Filina. Do you want to find out?”

At Philina’s words, Lee nodded slightly.

At him, two black puppies jumped up the pile and licked Li’s cheeks.

He gave a small smile and stroked the dog’s body.

Philina spoke in a low voice.

“Are you okay now? Doesn’t it hurt anywhere?”

At her question, Lee stood up from the pile where he was lying and looked at Philina with a puzzled face. His head tilted to the side.

“Are you glad I woke up?”

At the sound of his innocent voice, Filina nodded.

“Absolutely. I knew you’d never wake up like this.”

“Isn’t that better? Humans don’t like dragons.”

Li looked like he didn’t understand.

Philina frowned, slowly pulling her lips apart.

“…… I am not. I didn’t want you to die.”

At her answer, Li stared at Filina with clear eyes. Then he asked, glancing behind her.

“Didn’t the wizard come with you?”

“…… I came with him, but now I’m out of my mind.”

Philina, who had been so impressed, hurriedly added, fearing that Lee might misunderstand.

“I asked. Don’t kill you. Huey will do as I say. So you don’t have to be afraid.”

Of course, I told Huey that I would kill the dragon with my own hands after hearing everything I wanted to hear, but that was a lie to control Huey.

Filina had no intention of killing Lee.

However, at her words, Li furrowed his eyebrows as if he didn’t understand.

“Why? Why don’t you want to kill me?”

I didn’t know Lee’s intention to ask. Filina said with a small laugh.

“That’s obvious. How am I going to kill you when you’re still alive?”

Then Li asked, looking up at her intently.

“What if it’s not my will to be alive?”

“What?”

Philina asked, frowning at the back of her nose, and he tilted his head.

“So, can you kill me?”

“That’s ridiculous . . .”

Philina murmured low with her brows narrowed, and Lee smiled.

His voice echoed through the empty space.

“I can’t take my own life right now, Philina.”

“…….”

“Originally, dragons are part of divine power. You never die.”

At his words, Filina asked, with a puzzled face.

“But you said your companions lost their lives because of the wizard.”

“Yes, the only way they can kill us is by perverting the divine power. Don’t let me exert myself to do it.”

“…… Are wizards capable of that?”

“It used to be a lot of magic. So it was more dangerous. I didn’t even know that my life was being cut short, and I used magic to no avail.”

At Lee’s words, Filina muttered in a heavy voice.

“…… Life-cutting magic?”

At her words, Li nodded slowly.

A cool breeze whipped around them.

Li’s voice echoed through the quiet atmosphere.

“It used to be called black magic.”

He added, moving his gaze to the side.

“Although it seems to be taboo in the Alvar Empire now.”

Li’s eyes flashed as he stared into the air. I could see his hands twitching finely on his knees.

“The aftereffects of that dark magic also affected the dragons around me. It was contagious.”

Lee turned his head to look at Filina and smirked.

“And I couldn’t escape either.”

His brow slowly hardened, and the area around his eyes burned red. Li shook his head and muttered.

“I want to die. But I can’t die with this body right now. It’s possible to die only if I go back to my body, but I don’t have reason at that time. You can’t take your own life.”

“…… Lee.”

“No one can kill me. But I don’t want to give my life to the wizard who made me and my companions like this.”

He turned his head to look at Pilina and squeezed her hand.

Li said in an eager voice.

“Philina, please, please. Maybe you can.”

“…….”

“Please, kill me.”

Filina looked confused.

…… How can you ask me to kill you?

Some people are struggling to survive.

She let out a rueful laugh. Lee, who had been staring at Pilina silently, raised his mouth small.

“Is there anything you want to ask me?”

At his words, Filina’s eyes widened.

Li shouted in a low voice.

“I’ll tell you everything you want to hear. Promise me one thing instead.”

Philina, who had been staring at him blankly, opened her mouth with a gasp.

“Are you asking me to kill you in return?”

Li said with a gentle smile.

“Exactly.”

“…… How can I kill you.”

At his answer, Philina sighed.

“I’ve just met someone who knows me. . . Do you want me to be alone again?”

She shook her head and spoke gibberish.

I knew Lee wasn’t an ordinary person.

Nevertheless, there was no easy answer.

If Lee died, all the hope he had held on to would be gone.

As Philina hardened her expression in bewilderment, Lee tightened her grip.

She raised her gaze to stare at Li. He made quiet eye contact with Philina and said in a low voice:

“Now you have to go back to your original world.”

Philina’s red eyes widened. His hands trembled.

Tears quickly welled up in the corners of her eyes. Filina asked sadly.

“…… Can I go back?”

Transparent tears ran down her cheeks.

“I…, can I really go back to where I came from? You don’t have to keep living here…? Please, answer me. Lee…….”

She bent her legs and buried her face in Lee’s hands against her. Philina’s face was a mess of tear stains, and the back of Lee’s hand was wet with her tears.

Philina whispered in a low voice.

“…… I want to go back. Back to where I used to live.”

Then, from somewhere, I heard the sound of branches cracking.

Before she knew it, she heard a familiar voice.

“Philina……. What do you mean by that?”

Only then did Filina look up in surprise.

A short distance from where she and Lee were, Huey stood.

He asked again, his expression contorted.

“What the hell do you mean by what you just said? Where you used to live…”

Huey was looking at her with a look that didn’t understand at all.

Filina looked at him with a lowered gaze.

At that moment, Lee said, pulling the hand that had been holding her towards me.

“Philina, get that wizard out of here right away, or I can’t tell you anything.”

Hearing his voice, I saw Huey smirk in disbelief.

Filina sighed and pulled the hand that had been holding Lee away.

“Wait a minute.”

With that, Philina turned and walked over to Huey.

He stared at Philina, who was approaching me in a stiff position.

She looked straight at Huey without any distraction, and only then did she stop in front of him and then open her mouth.

“Honestly, I didn’t expect to say this to you…”

She stared silently at Huey’s brow wrinkles, then continued.

“I’ll tell you everything. But not now. When I get out of here, I’ll tell you then. So go back to the military academy today.”

At the sound of her firm voice, Huey let out a small sigh. He looked up and smiled sheepishly.

“If you say so earnestly, I can’t refuse, Philina.”

Huey said, turning his gaze and glancing at Li.

“No matter what, I can’t go back to the swordsmanship academy completely. The Divine Power feels a little weaker than it used to be, but it’s unsettling. You never know when it’s going to turn into a body.”

He shifted his head to meet Philina’s eyes.

“I’ll be in front of the indigo door that leads to the kennel. If that’s the case, even if he suddenly turns into a dragon, you’ll see everything.”

At Huey’s words, she turned her head for a moment to look at Li. He looked like he was asking for permission.

Then Li nodded as if he couldn’t help it.

Huey, who was in front of him, snorted and muttered.

“I don’t know why I should look at that dragon.”

Having said that, Huey turned around. Then he turned to Philina and added one more word.

“If you’re in danger, you have to run away, and I don’t know what you’re going to talk about, but I’m sure you’ll get it over with as soon as possible. That will reassure me.”

Huey finished his words and walked in the opposite direction. Philina, who had been staring at him in silence, turned her head.

Immediately, Li’s eyes met. He asked, puzzled.

“Philina, are you and the wizard by any chance?”

At Li’s words, she gave a small smirk.

A lover …….

It was not a word that would come out of a child’s mouth. No, it’s fair to say that these are not words that will come out of the mouth of a dragon…….

Filina approached Lee with a determined look.

“It’s not like that. I’m just a friend, I guess.”

At her answer, Li tilted his head.

“Friends? In the first place, I thought it didn’t make sense to have a lover, but…, how can an ordinary human being make friends with a despicable bastard like a wizard?”

He looked genuinely curious. Then, with a faint smile on his face, he said that he had thought of something to himself.

“Well, you can’t be a normal human being . . .”

Li smirked, his eyes met with her with a serene face.

“You’re from another world.”

His eyes narrowed. It was an expression that could never come out of a child.

Staring at his benevolent gaze, she opened her mouth.

“Now tell me, why did I come to this world……. And what do I need to do to get back to where I came from?”
