44 – LH Sister Punishment Act 18

Adaptation was a really scary story.

A word that means taking something for granted… becoming accustomed to it.

In that sense, a woman named Linda Halls was adjusting to her current situation.

For one week, she is tortured without mercy, and for the next week, she spends the life she has always dreamed of, like a flawless princess.

Although Bahamut’s torture was still painful, at some point she felt it.

As time goes by… the feelings she is feeling are gradually changing from pain to pleasure and pleasure…

However, despite recognizing the fact, she couldn’t accept it.

She had someone she loved.

A precious childhood friend who has been together since childhood.

A benefactor who saved her when her family was in ruin and was in trouble.

And… the person who promised to marry her.

Thinking of him, Linda denied her feelings to the end.

The feelings she is feeling right now…

‘It’s a lie… this idea… I have Jake. There is a person who loves more than anything. If you are with that person, you will definitely be able to be happy. incomparable to what it is now. A life with someone you love is definitely…’

Linda tries to maintain her mind while pushing herself so many times.

With that thought in mind… As another week of torture drew near, Linda went to see Jake in a gorgeous, yet very pleasing dress.

“Jake is here.”

“… .yes..”

Jake looked at Linda and answered in a quiet voice.

Seeing this, Linda began to feel her concern for him grow stronger.

‘This is how hard you have suffered… I need to comfort you even a little..’

With that thought in mind, Linda stayed close to Jake and spoke in a voice that contained as much warmth as possible.

“Jake… it will be hard, but be patient… it’s not long now… just a little… just a little bit longer…”

“… Yeah… I’m sorry… I really…”

A voice full of deep guilt and frustration

Hearing this, Linda felt a pain in her heart, and began to refine her heart once again.

‘I… will not give up… together with Jake… a happy future…’

However, unlike Linda, who was thinking that way, Jake’s expression was infinitely dark.

He too knew.

that this is unavoidable.

He said that Linda was paying for her failure by giving herself up instead.

However, despite knowing it in his head, Jake’s heart could not accept it.

The fact that his woman is playing in the arms of another man…

In addition, the man was a person with wealth and power that could not be compared to himself now.

He could feel it keenly through Linda’s splendidly changing appearance every time he came.

However, despite being obsessed with such an inferiority complex, Jake couldn’t get it out of his mouth.

It was because he couldn’t let this woman’s hard work for himself be in vain.

‘Once you can find your freedom. But.. can we really be happy after that?..’

*

A time that was thought to never end.

But.. the time that passed by so fast from a certain moment.. eventually came to an end.

The journey that started at the end of summer ended on a winter day when the chill began to blow.

“..Jake..”

“Linda…”

Jake and Linda are finally free.

They held each other’s hands and left Bahamut’s mansion with deep joy.

For now, Jake Law was accepting this moment with joy, as this terrible time of humiliation and pain was finally over.

Although I wasn’t expecting much about the future that lay behind this.

And… watching the two people leave the mansion like that, Isolda said in a cold voice.

“..Really, are you going to send them away?”

Lee Sol-da expresses dissatisfaction while holding the processed pyrite in her hand.

Honestly, no matter how much she promised, she thought that Bahamut’s personality must have set a trap.

But actually, after three months, Bahamut sent them out neatly without any regrets.

Without any conditions or schemes.

“You said that there would be no mercy at all for me. I don’t think he had any sympathy for that woman in the meantime…”

“No, not at all.”

“… what?”

The next moment, Bahamut speaks with an extremely determined voice

“There is no such thing as mercy. Those guys… no. You’ll find out more about it soon.”

“!…”

These were not empty words, but Bahamut’s extremely cold words.

At this, Isolda began to recognize that there was still something ahead of her.

More than she thought… something harsh and devastating…

*

“… .”

A man sleeping in front of his eyes. Jake, the man she truly loved

It’s been three months since Linda found freedom in Bahamut’s mansion and lived with him.

And… those three months were for Linda…

She was on her way to more hell than she could have imagined.

Linda and Jake find freedom but are driven penniless

They made it to the Aosta region, the only place they could trust, looking like beggars.

But… life there was far from the happiness Linda had hoped for.

Lord Easter, who had suffered great losses in the process of cooperating with Jake’s gold mining industry, was cold-hearted.

Even so, I didn’t kick them out thinking about the old friendship… but the treatment they were receiving was so poor.

The food was poor, and the room given was cramped and shabby.

The clothes they were given were also rough and dirty.

There was nothing Linda liked.

It would be rude to compare not only Bahamut’s mansion, but even life in Lugano.

And there’s one more thing…

Even at this moment, there was something that was bothering Linga.

‘… Satisfied… I can’t… not at all…’

The sleep with Jake I’ve been longing for for a long time.

But… it was so different from what I had experienced with Bahamut.

A feeling of flatness and an unmatched sense of emptiness

The stimulus that penetrated her intensely…

The pleasure that seemed to shake the soul…

It was nowhere.

And one more thing… Linda could feel it.

I didn’t express myself openly. But through the glare of disgust, Linda was able to perceive what Jake was thinking.

At some point, I realized that this man no longer loved me.

That you’re looking at yourself like you’re looking at a dirty whore.

‘… ..this… just this… The future I chose…? Is this… the happiness… that I wanted?..’

I didn’t know until I tried it.

She had only vague fantasies about the future she hoped for.

I thought that as long as I had love, I would be happy in any situation.

But… Linda now realizes that’s not the case.

That love doesn’t solve everything…

And the harsh reality… that even the feeling of love can cool down and change…

‘… I don’t like it.. To live my whole life like this… To live in this situation… with a man like this…’

Linda slowly rose from her seat in the agony that gnawed at her heart.

I knew this wasn’t right.

Abandon the beliefs you’ve always held.

She knew that it was an act of giving up something precious that had been kept for a long time.

However, despite this, she finally gave in.

By the happiness that she had experienced… like a dream so enchanting.

It is completely different from the bitter reality of today, which is so miserable.

If I hadn’t known, it wouldn’t have been as painful as it is now.

In front of the poison that man planted… a very perfect and sweet dream…

And.

It was a few days later that a woman named Linda Halls disappeared from Aosta.

Leaving behind Jake, who has become a complete failure. Leaving only a short letter saying sorry.

After that, I couldn’t hear anything about her anywhere.

*

“… ..”

Looking at the woman in front of his eyes, Bahamut remained expressionless.

And in front of Bahamut, she…

A woman named Linda Halls, who left this place a few months ago after receiving ‘freedom’, said with a desperate expression on her knees.

“Please… let me… make me… your… slave again…”

Linda speaks with sincerity.

However, in her eyes, there was no longer any vibrancy or hope from the past.

It was… a face that gave up everything.

The face of a perfect loser who accepts that everything has failed.

And at the same time, what Bahamut wanted. The face that reached the very end.

like that. Bahamut spoke in a cold voice as he looked at the demon whose everything had completely collapsed.

“It’s better not to expect the luxurious hospitality from before. Do you still want to be a slave?”

“..it doesn’t matter..now..whatever happens..because I..have nothing left..”

With that, Linda’s mouth slowly showed a helpless smile.

There was no joy or pleasure in it.

It’s like a doll that’s beautiful but doesn’t contain any vitality.

Such an empty, empty smile…
