Love Letter From The Future

6. Proof of Existence (39)

It is difficult to even breathe with the rising blood.

I felt a burning pain from the pierced abdomen. The flames that climbed up his spine ignited his brain and surged up.

sick.

But the pain didn’t dominate my consciousness. Only one question holds my soul like a ghost.

I wanted to ask why, but it had been a long time since the blood had filled up to my vocal chords.

With the sound of boiling blood, foam filled his mouth. The man with jade-colored hair let out a deep sigh at the pitiful noise.

My friend, Yuren.

To be more precise, he was a person who was a ‘friend’ of mine.

Pak, he said and retrieved the sword stuck in my body. Blood gushed out like a fountain, and my body, which was already close to its limit, had to fall face down without even screaming.

My eyes were blurry.

Even so, I tried my best not to lose my mind. My unfocused eyes turned somewhere.

“Lord, master… Aww?!”

The ax handle was crushing the girl’s hand.

groan, groan.

There was a sound like grain being ground between rough stones. Even though it must have been a pain she had never experienced in her life, Elsie was crawling on the ground with her teeth clenched.

Bloodshot eyes and bloody shoulders were engraved on my retina one after another.

“Oh, no… As for the owner… … .”

Elsie senior’s resistance could not continue.

With a snap, the ax handle struck Elsie-senpai in the back of the neck. It wasn’t a power that a wizard who wasn’t even a swordsman could withstand.

Rather, the fact that he had been holding on to his spirit until now was to the point of being useful.

There were others who couldn’t stay sane.

The person who made Elsie sunbae into a mess was Celine.

Fear filled those brown eyes. I felt a strong fear of the situation where I couldn’t control my body.

I trembled at the excuses that flowed out in pieces.

“No, no… Me, I don’t want to… … .”

“Is it really so?”

The girl in the black priest’s uniform took a light step.

Yuren was present on the path, but he did not show any particular interest in the girl. I silently wiped the blood from my sword body with a cloth.

The eyes of the girl and Celine met in midair.

A sticky voice began to persuade Celine.

“You really wanted to do it, didn’t you? He appears out of nowhere and takes the seat next to his childhood friend… Then, from one day onwards, he became jealous as if he had already become a fiancée. Aren’t you annoyed? You wanted to do this from the beginning, didn’t you?”

“I, I… no, it wouldn’t be… … .”

Clap, a clear sound of hand clapping rang out.

The girl continued talking with a naive smile on her face.

“So you made a ‘deal’ with me?”

“A deal, when I… … .”

Contrary to the statements that were being spit out, Celine’s eyes were gradually blurring.

Seeing Celine getting more and more mesmerized, the girl burst into laughter.

A glamorous ship floats.

“Didn’t you ever think it was strange? Lucky to be born into a powerful family, enjoy all kinds of privileges, and monopolize sweet fruits with the name ‘talent’… On the other hand, some people’s families have been shattered since childhood, and even if they devote themselves to training until their hands swell every day, they will never be able to catch up.”

The luster in the tawny pupils was gone. Celine’s body was shaking.

He chewed his lips as if he didn’t know what to answer.

The girl whispered closer to Celine.

“… … Everything was taken away.”

It was a tone full of subtle anger.

The tremors in Celine’s body grew stronger.

“Family, family name, even love… Are you going to live the rest of your life like that? We’ll give you back your fair share.”

“Fair, my share… … ?”

“Yes, the sister’s share that she deserves!”

Taking a step back, the girl spread her arms and smiled brightly.

It was a face of pure kindness.

Even disgusting.

“A high-ranking aristocrat? I do not care! Can I just break it down? I’ll give you strength equal to the drops of sweat you’ve shed so far. And it drives away the flying flies that keep clinging to my brother.”

Aww, a deep moan leaked out of my mouth.

Can not be done.

Even Celine couldn’t be taken away. I tried to move my body with such a single thought, but my muscles stiff like lead didn’t listen.

A careless word from Yuren pierced me.

“Arthur.”

I said, gritting my teeth, forcibly raising my gaze upwards. Yuren had a bitter expression on his face and a dejected smile.

“It’s already too late. When hit by my sword, everything slows down… As if it had hardened.”

Yuren’s Aura didn’t have that kind of ability.

My doubts were soon resolved.

Yuren’s eyes looking down at me were stained with an ominous green light. Those eyes that glowed even in the dark were not the exclusive property of those who had reached great heights.

Don’t animals also light up their eyes at night?

A being in the middle between man and beast, Majin.

Those who made a contract with the evil spirits inherited their talents and aptitude as non-human monsters.

As if to prove that, I felt the affected area spread around the puncture wound left in my abdomen. It felt heavy and solid, as if a stone had been placed on top of it.

Looking at Yuren’s eyes, I thought of a person.

“Go, go… … .”

“that’s right.”

Then, without a word, Yuren took out a white mask from his bosom.

As the mask covered the man’s face, a familiar portrait was born.

“It’s me, ‘The Masked Man’.”

I felt like I wanted to shout at the emotion that burned my heart.

However, my body, which had begun to harden, refused my brain’s instructions. Only the girl’s bewitching persuasion tickled my ears.

“… … Take my hand, sister.”

Celine’s breathing became extremely rough. I let out a bloody cough, afraid Celine would make a foolish choice.

“God is nothing but a lousy favoritism. Join us, we’ll give you back what you deserve… … ”

His molars crashed against his trembling body, his rapid breathing, and his twitching jaw muscles.

Celine carefully raised her hand and looked at the size of the girl’s palm.

The moment a deep smile was about to form on the girl’s lips.

“… … Don’t fuck!”

With a shout, Celine pulled the girl’s hand.

In fact, the girl didn’t even move. Just as if he knew this would happen, he sighed and rotated his arms.

Following that circular trajectory, Celine’s body floated through the air.

Soon, a thud was heard, and Celine’s body fell to the ground. It was strong enough to cause a low earthquake. Celine coughed up blood and closed her eyes.

It was an instant.

The strength of the girl in the priestly uniform had already grown to an unfathomable level. Even if I fought against it, there was no chance of victory.

At least, it was a monster that the entire party had to gather together to face.

As I wriggled and convulsed repeatedly, the girl puffed out her cheeks and stared at Yuren.

“My co-worker, isn’t it too much for my brother? Are you going to take responsibility if you die like this?”

“You should have done better.”

It was an answer full of annoyance.

Deep fatigue and displeasure crossed Yuren’s face. From those eyes that looked down at me from time to time, a complicated feeling came through.

“Why did you show up all of a sudden? Why did you even expose the existence of Shylock Company… Even if I didn’t, until I had to do this!”

“Isn’t that how my brother will catch fish?”

With a refreshing smile, the girl took light steps.

Those eyes looking down at me as I collapsed were like a girl in love. As if he couldn’t calm his pounding heart, a blush appeared on his cheeks.

I couldn’t understand the conversation between the two of them.

Why the hell did Yuren betray us?

What do you mean by intentionally exposing Shylock’s shop?

The more the sound of panting breath is repeated, the weight of the eyelids increases.

“Listen, brother. I will tell you how much I struggled to have an older brother.”

A giggling, clear laugh tickled my eardrums.

“Actually, that partner man has a secret. A long time ago, I felt a wall of skill and contacted the Dark Church. It was fine until then… … .”

“It was for my sister.”

Sighing, the man shook his head.

“There were no talented people by my sister’s side. Being an orphan, his political position was at risk… On the other hand, the forces opposing my sister were too strong.”

“That’s why we decided to help.”

The voices of the two traitors began to resonate in harmony.

“The risk was great, but at the time I had no options. That’s how I was able to secure the forces to help my sister… But the wall of vested interest was still high and strong.”

“How many months ago? My partner Yangban suggested a new business… It was a voice asking for help so that the saintess could perform a miracle. The more that happens, the stronger the religious symbolism becomes.”

“You, Aldis, need a sacrifice for a miracle… … .”

As Yuren slurred his words, the girl burst into a seductive laugh and snapped her fingers.

The bloody sun howls.

The corpses of the orphans scattered in the closed room began to resonate with the woo-woo-woo vibration. The hazy soul was sucked into the sun’s core, leaving a scream like reverberation.

And with a pop, a drop of water fell from the blood-red sun.

Drops of blood landed exactly on the girl’s palm. After a few seconds of shivering, it began to shape itself, and then it took on the familiar shape of a bloody orb.

A deep moan escaped from my mouth.

“… … Blood, Jung.”

It was a tribute that saved my life several times.
