That Man’s 101st Bad Ending

Can you hug me…?-4

It was the first time I had ever looked closely at someone’s memory.

Adrian knew that this was rude.

what is not permitted. Because he didn’t know whether he wanted to reveal it or show it to me.

However, the reason why he tried to examine his memories was because he wanted to know why Robert’s inner world was like that.

In order to understand and care for the empty heart like that of a dying person.

He wants to do something that no one else can do, something that only he can do.

Perhaps it is sympathy.

The type of person you see for the first time in your life, someone who is interested in you for no reason, and someone who catches your eye without even realizing it.

You don’t have to feel insecure with someone you’re seeing for the first time, but if you’re with someone strangely, you’re afraid that they’ll disappear at any moment.

That’s why I try to read memories.

Even if the memories you face don’t mean much, they will help you solve this curiosity.

As the light leaked from the rosary enveloped her body, her consciousness gradually began to blur.

Robert’s memory of death. It was time to face them.

#

Even if you can read someone’s memory, you can’t read everything from birth to death.

However, to the extent that he can see in detail a part of the memories he had seen fragmentarily.

Because it was viewed not through sight, but through the power of God, even though it was an achromatic world, it was possible to see undistorted memories.

For a while, Adrian felt his senses return and carefully opened his eyes.

A sense that reacts sensitively to even the slightest light,

You’ll be able to see your memories until your holy power runs out, so if possible, it’s better to look at the memories that seem important.

The space to see memories was the world of images inside Adrian.

Perhaps because of that, all I could see around me was a winding road going through the center.

What I see while walking along the road are fragments of memories that Robert showed me.

It wasn’t normal either.

All of these memories contained the death of Robert, so that one person died many times.

After all, there can be no explanation other than regression.

If so, what is the reason for repeating the same time?

For what, for what purpose.

It is true that the concept of regression is difficult to understand,

I knew that I was living a life that repeated forever based on a certain point in time.

It wasn’t like someone explained it. A concept that I naturally understood the moment I saw Robert’s life.

As if this existed from the beginning,

The concept that bloomed with the divine power helped to understand Robert’s multiple deaths a little bit.

He stretches out his hand toward the memory that floats in the air like water droplets.

Robert’s first death. Adrian slowly closed his eyes, feeling the memories leaking into his head.

Reading memories was like bathing in running water.

As if surrendering oneself to running water, I quietly opened my eyes with my body flowing beyond my memories.

I saw a landscape that changed in an instant. When I looked into the air at the sound of pouring rain, the dark sky was full of dark clouds.

it is raining.

A chilly wind blew in the cold, dark sky, and the grass that had lost its light was blown away and swayed aimlessly in the wind.

Next to it was a large mansion, and Adrian quickly realized the identity of the mansion.

This space is in Robert’s memory, then that gigantic mansion must be the residence of Duke Taylor.

However, unlike its majesty, only shadows filled it.

The dark and turbid aura, the darkness touched by the divine power crumbled into small pieces, and at the same time, I felt a faint scent of blood.

Why do I feel the smell of blood here?

“Are you here?”

The only color I could see was a dark light.

As if his existence was excluded from the achromatic world, the pouring rain fell down, avoiding Adrian.

not wet After confirming that fact, Adrian slowly moved on.

Doesn’t it feel like a ghost in a fairy tale?

Even if it touches a wall, its body passes through it, and even other people do not notice its existence.

It was a natural thing. Rather than going back in time to the past, it was just a spectator of memories.

After seeing the butler passing through her body, she was surprised for a moment, then took a deep breath while sweeping her chest.

It’s like seeing eyes, and it’s like people passing through you. It was a feeling that was difficult for everyone to get used to.

It would be very uncomfortable if I lost my sight again.

It was very comfortable to see something.

As much as you can directly see the expression of the person looking at you, wouldn’t it be possible to see the smile that you only imagined.

Every time I walked in such a dark hallway, there was one question that came to my mind.

Where are all the people in this vast ducal residence?

There were people who passed by sometimes, but I couldn’t see Robert’s face.

I clearly remembered the appearance I had seen in my memory.

Even with cold eyes, that face that smiled softly at Mirazen.

– There was.

Is it about Miragen that there was someone I had a crush on?

You must have encountered it several times already in this life. Still, there was no way he didn’t have any feelings.

Then, what thoughts do you have, and how do you look at Mirazen, who was already your lover in your previous life?

Adrian’s eyebrows wrinkled at the sudden question.

It was something he didn’t have to worry about.

It was a feeling Robert would decide for himself, and even if he cared about it, nothing would change.

While clearing the thoughts that were trying to fill my head, I walked down the quiet hallway again.

The sense of incongruity grew as I walked through the silence where not even the sound of footsteps could be heard.

What he wants to see is the memory of Robert’s death, isn’t it strange that the place of such memories is the duke’s residence?

It was a while later that Adrian, who was walking in the spacious ducal residence, stopped.

The footsteps came to a halt at the faint voice coming from below.

“You always have been. I was always pathetic, useless, and foolish.”

Realizing that the cold, dark female voice belonged to Robert’s sister, Yuria Taylor, Adrian took another step forward.

Going underground wasn’t too difficult.

When the divine power was blown into it, the body floated up, and as it reached out toward the floor, the scenery of the basement began to appear.

I put my body completely into the basement and landed on the floor as it is.

widely.

With his feet on the ground, Adrian quietly looked around.

This cellar was not just one room, it seemed to go down constantly.

A door made of iron, even frowning at the person trapped inside.

I noticed that it was usually a secret affair involving the aristocratic family.

Perhaps it could be said that it was a rumor spreading like an urban legend.

Each of the high-ranking aristocratic families hides something underground.

Dealing with those who betrayed, kidnapping the dangerous elements directly.

It was surprising that the reality was unfolding before my eyes, but I kept my mouth shut for a moment and turned my head away.

It didn’t last very long in my memory.

Isn’t the priority now to find Robert?

After praying for the fallen people, she started walking again in the direction where she heard YuRia’s voice.

The closer the voice came, the more it was not a single sound.

someone was screaming

Screaming in pain, he was begging forgiveness for something.

Suddenly, a sound leaked from the clenched teeth.

It was a familiar voice.

Robert Taylor, pale from the screams of the one who always whispered softly to him,

Adrian, biting his trembling lips, carefully looked ahead.

The scenery in front of me was so horrendous.

A man tied to a chair and coughing up blood, and a woman looking at him indifferently.

Who would believe that it was a sibling relationship.

The sight of torturing my own family, yet not feeling even the slightest sense of guilt.

“Robert…”

Adrian’s voice did not reach.

Robert’s eyes turned white as he screamed at the digging blade and screamed at the pain of the heated iron burning his flesh.

Bloody tears flowed from his eyes.

Her lips were completely torn from chewing, and her body was full of scars where her bones were exposed from cuts and tears.

“Sister… please, I… made a mistake. This time there was a misunderstanding- you know I don’t even intend to rebel…forgive me…please.”

“How am I supposed to believe that I don’t even intend to raise it.”

hooked

As the iron skewer pierced his thigh, another scream escaped Robert’s mouth.

But now it seemed like he couldn’t even scream.

A brief moment of agony leaked out, followed by a light breath and a drooping head.

“…why. As a family.”

I couldn’t understand the word treason, but it was true that I couldn’t understand it anyway.

No matter what he did wrong, it was no reason to be tortured.

At least in Adrian’s common sense, there was no crime that would torture a person like that.

It was seen that all fingernails and toenails had been pulled out.

Blood dripped, pooled on the floor like a puddle, and dripped onto the basement floor.

Even so, Robert was still begging for forgiveness. I don’t know what crime I committed.

However, it is not a crime that deserves such punishment.

Even while undergoing torture that wouldn’t be strange to die right away, with his flesh being ripped off. Robert’s words were always the same.

“sorry.”

“I’ve noticed a change in his behavior lately. I thought I finally saw the possibility of not being someone named Taylor. But… I never thought I would do such a pathetic thing.”

“sorry.”

The sharp knife cut right through the thigh.

The flowing blood showed no signs of stopping.

Transparent liquid was sprayed on it, and YuRia smiled a little as she saw Robert writhing in pain again.

Adrian realized that the smile was pure joy.

The fact that Robert is suffering, the reality that he is suffering from me after falling like this.

It is genuinely happy.

It seemed like he was hoping for something like this. My legs were weak and I couldn’t even walk properly.

If the reality he was seeing was really Robert’s memory, it meant that he had been through this many times over.

Isn’t that the first death you’ve ever experienced?

Even though he only remembered seeing it more than 10 times, is it really possible to smile gently at himself?

A trembling hand went into the air. He couldn’t reach it because he couldn’t walk, but Adrian’s fingertips were pointing towards Robert.

To the man with his head bowed in front of Yuria Taylor, barely holding on to that consciousness with a dim mind.

Of course it doesn’t reach. The hand that reached out to the cheek passed through Robert as it was.

Even the blood on the floor did not ask Adrian.

Isn’t it natural He was just looking back at his memories, so he couldn’t help Robert.

nothing. He couldn’t heal that wound or punish Yuria Taylor.

It’s all about just looking.

Perhaps the death to watch after this was also the same. Same thing no matter how many times I see it. The same thing no matter how many times I look back.

He can’t even help Robert.

Even if it’s obvious, why don’t you like it? Grasp the hands that have touched the floor.

It took a long time for his hands to turn white, and when Adrian removed his trembling hands and raised his head, Yuria Taylor had already disappeared.

In the silence where only Adrian’s breathing could be heard, Robert’s faint voice broke through.

“…this time too. Doesn’t that change?”

The narrowed eyes were not as empty as he knew.

Rather than anger or resentment for his illness, he was filled with sympathy for Yuria who had disappeared.

I was puzzled by that, but Robert’s words continued.

“Again, you don’t believe me.”

Tears streamed down his cheeks and fell down.

Unlike when he was in pain, it had a transparent color.

Regrets about something, and after hearing those words, Adrian realized that this life was not the first.

Even though I’ve already passed through several deaths, those eyes are not empty,

If so, the Robert he knows. Have you been through something worse than this?

It was an unbelievable fact, and it was a truth I didn’t want to believe.

However, before he could say anything, the scenery slowly began to change.

I stare blankly at the landscape crumbling like smoke, then notice that the pouring rain is still there and look away.

shoot ah-

“From now on, we will begin executing the criminal Robert.”

Adrian’s complexion turned pale again when he saw Robert tied to the scaffold, awaiting death.

Countless people watching the execution, and Robert waiting for death tied in the middle.

Adrian tightly closed his eyes at this execution taking place like a show in a circular arena.

“Robert, hold on…!”

I shouted even though I knew that this voice would not reach me.

Even if he tried his best, no one would see him.

Even if he tried to break the scaffold by emitting divine power, Robert’s gaze was only directed into the empty air.

It was an expression without any remorse.

As if he had intuition that everything was over, his eyes showed no sign of opening.

tadadak-

Adrian, who ran through the people with a voice that could not be reached, finally reached the front of Robert.

It was close enough to see Robert’s face intact.

While looking at the death he had witnessed, he was still calm for a while, and Adrian’s eyes narrowed as he looked at his slightly open mouth.

It seemed like he was trying to say something.

As if making a promise to himself, Robert, seeing the blade approaching me, quietly moved his lips.

“…Next time, definitely.”

Is it a word about the life that will come later? Adrian couldn’t understand.

I couldn’t even understand this unexpected memory, but the memory continues nonetheless.

Like dust scattered in the wind, the world began to scatter.

And then you realize

Still, Robert’s death was far away.
