71 – Face the truth (2)

* * * *

Patter.

Even though the rain fell like blades from the night sky, the only sound that the life in the garden could hear was the faint sound of rain as if it were crumbling.

It was because the magic barrier that surrounded the entire garden allowed only an appropriate level of raindrops to pass through.

container. container. container.

A different sound is echoed from when it collides with glass or the ground, and it blends with the sound of rain that is like breathing.

The images of a boy and a girl form on the raindrops falling relentlessly toward the ground and then scatter.

The two of them are holding each other’s hands as if they are caressing each other, and their eyes are filled with each other.

Was it because he had heard all the memories of the boy, or was it because he was drunk with a wet ruby like a red moon shining in the half-dead moonlight?

Even though the boy was just silently waiting for the girl’s answer, the girl just twitched her sweet cherry-like lips for a while, not thinking of speaking out.

A word that came out after waiting for such a long time.

“thank you.”

The girl said that to the boy who still had cloudy eyes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

At this, the boy questioned and tried to say something, but the girl continued as if it was not the time yet, as if she wanted to be silent.

“Of course. I heard there was an opportunity to go back? To your original world.”

They say they are grateful that the boy did not return to his nest.

“Even if you know the future, you said you learned that the world doesn’t go the way you want. You’ve experienced being unable to even move a finger because of just one mistake.”

He says he is grateful that he chose the path to save himself without hesitation, even though a cruel future with no end in sight might be waiting for him.

Humans, by nature, live with a vague expectation that the future will be better, so they can continue their lives.

You have to save yourself from a hellish fate.

He has to overcome numerous beings that threaten the boy who is trying to twist his fate.

Even though he knows that even if he is not vigilant for a moment, he will have to fight against the absolute existence of the devil in the end.

Even in a situation where neither the way to beat him nor the way to get rid of him is clear, he is grateful to the boy for choosing a thorny path where a precipice may be waiting with the single-minded determination to save himself.

“Even though I couldn’t think of anything, didn’t know anything, and did bad things to you, you didn’t give up on me until the end.”

Step by step, the girl approaches the boy and wraps herself in his arms. It is as if you are immersing yourself in a nest you have found throughout the winter after a long journey.

“I don’t know how you feel, but I think so.”

Then he carefully raises the boy’s hand and places it on top of his head. As if to be stroked.

“In the end, my life and my future came together thanks to you.”

However, there was still hesitation in the boy’s heart, and the girl had no choice but to put her hand on the boy’s hand placed on top of her head and move it.

Like the usual boy petting himself.

“If you hadn’t sent a letter to God, I would have been doomed to die of misery. I would have died without knowing what love was.”

“You said I was destined to fall in love with Ian…well. If I really loved Ian Cedric, would I have just died that way?”

The girl just smiled and shook her head. The boy couldn’t see it, but he could feel it from the skin on his palm.

“No, if it’s me now. If I really know what love is, I can say for sure. If I really felt love like this swimming in the clouds… I would have begged before I died. Hug me, even if it’s just for one night, I’m going to die soon.” It’s a request from you, so please bear with me.”

flinch. The boy’s body froze for a moment as he imagined a scene he didn’t even want to imagine.

However, the boy’s stiff muscles loosen up at the girl’s hand, which gently overlaps him again, saying that it’s okay and be relieved.

“But you didn’t? Why do you think so? Even though Ian Cedric was my focal point.”

“Why…Pin, do you think my feelings are only love?

the girl talks

Why do you think that the feeling you had for Ian Cedric, that good feeling, would be pink love? A sense of debt that wants to repay the grace that saved his life. The joy of finally meeting someone who thinks of you. Don’t you think that camaraderie is a feeling that brings all of them together?

“You said. I’m a colorless person. I’m a person who wants to give back what I gave.”

“By the way, what Ian Cedric gave me…was it love?”

the girl talks

that something is not right Did I, who you watched, really love Ian? Didn’t I just receive that sacrificial feeling?

The boy’s hands tremble slightly. It was because the novel he was reading was in the genre of romance, so it was a completely unexpected change of thinking.

“Of course, from the outside, it might look like that. No, no, Ian Cedric and I wouldn’t have known about it.”

“But you, you who know me on the inside and on the inside…you’re not. You’re not, right? Finn.”

It was a happy word for the boy, but it was too hard to believe in the lines given.

Because I had thought that the character of the girl I knew was not like that.

That is why the boy’s dry lips, which had been tightly closed, finally opened.

from negativity.

“But the princess…”

But this time, the boy’s words did not come to an end. No, this time on my own volition.

It was because the girl was looking at him and smiling faintly.

“Pin…no, my fiancé whose name is unknown. Why are you closing your eyes? Why are you looking away?”

The boy was looking at the girl with his eyes open, so he didn’t know what to say.

Ironically, however, the boy’s pupils began to shake slightly because he could vaguely guess the meaning.

Now that he knows everything, now he realizes the identity of the strange sense of incongruity he felt from the moment he found out that the identity of the boy was a servant.

Now the girl speaks A warm light that will help the boy peel off his last skin.

“I know it was hard. Now I know why it had to be.”

The girl recalls her hand and caresses the boy’s pale skin. Continue.

“But now I am here. Even though I know everything, there is a me who will never leave your side for the rest of my life. I have a colleague to worry about and fight with.”

“Did I have to think about everything alone? I had to worry alone, overcome it alone, alone… No matter how hard I tried, I had to spend every day feeling anxious that hell might be waiting at the end of the road, right?”

“I know, I have a responsibility too.”

‘It’s my responsibility to think of you as a hero who knows everything and can do it all.’

The girl realized that the boy was just a human being who had been trying desperately because he wanted to be just one person.

Such a mere human boy, a mere human boy even though he gained power.

Being the only one who knew the future, I was able to understand the burden and anxiety I had been suffering from.

“I-I…”

The boy’s slightly open lips move, and water droplets, now tinged with the moonlight that has now faded, form on the girl’s delicate touch.

“But open your eyes now, I… I am with you. The me you chose. The reality you chose is here. It’s just a novel, not just a story in a book… This is the reality you live in.”

The burden that had been oppressing the boy is slowly losing its weight.

His breath, which had been barely blocked, was cleared, and the boy wept endlessly.

“…it was scary, yes.”

the boy talks

The boy who had the stigma of being given the last chance.

Now, a weak boy who lost even his roots and had to stand alone.

talk about yourself

“What if I fail again. What if I lose you again… what if I lose you again. What if I lose you helplessly and become a vegetable? What if I make a mistake. What if fate strikes me in a way I never expected.”

No matter how powerful he may have been, the boy was only human after all.

There was only one method the boy chose to calm down his countless insecurities.

“So I built a wall.”

How to build the so-called 4th wall.

A method like an omniscient observer’s point of view, which only contemplates and intervenes only when it wants to intervene.

So the boy

-Because she was a being who had to die in the scenario.

He threw away the chance to save a girl named Irene Justia without even considering it.

-Poor people who throw themselves into eternal pain in order to save the one they love… .

I was careful not to have the impression that Grace was a ‘person’.

He tried to treat Grace as a mere potion.

She reassured herself by saying to herself that Anna Freesia would just have to give her the dragon.

He showed a merciless attitude toward other heroines. He stabbed his sword without hesitation. hit It’s full. Didn’t show any mercy.

-That reasoning is half right, but half wrong.

He was relieved that the girl wasn’t trying to dig into his inner self.

Just.

I tried to recognize all beings other than girls as created characters.

I tried to perceive this world as something made of typeface.

Even more so, in the end, I tried to think that even the girl’s personality could not deviate from the given setting.

Because if I didn’t do that, I couldn’t stand it.

Because all the emotions and anxieties gathered together seemed like they would tear themselves apart and kill them.

The weak boy who had only strength had chosen the method of escaping from reality.

The girl’s remaining hand holds the boy’s tear-stained cheek.

“Now that I’m with you, it’s okay. I’ll be with you, so it’s okay. So…”

“Please don’t abandon yourself for me. Please don’t abandon everything else. As much as you care about me, think of yourself. I will…”

save me

The boy’s shadow in the moonlight disappears, and his tear-stained eyes bloom.

The girl also speaks together, now blooming true love.

“Didn’t I say that you are the only person who can be involved in the fate of the novel?”

“…yes.”

“Then, draw this book not as a novel, but as a biography. Draw it as a fairy tale-like biography of overcoming all adversity and hardships… getting married in the end… and finding peaceful happiness.”

I will be with you for the rest of my life.

this is this world

Because it is a reality that you and I will be together.

The boy who looked away from reality and the girl who regarded love as heaven.

Kim Bin and Lilithiana.

Through the moonlight, we met each other with unclouded eyes.
