‘Damn it. I didn’t know it would turn out like this…’

Lilia was so embarrassed by the unexpected situation.
She was waiting for her brother to wake up, and she was strangled by her out of the blue.
She thought she would greet herself with her face in her mesmerized state.
Lillia struggled to free her Aion’s grip on her own throat.

“Hey, hey, Aion. Hey, why don’t you let go of your hand and talk to me?”
“No, you’re still cheap.”

Persuasion failed.
Aion didn’t even listen to Lillia’s words.

“I-I have something I want to say, can’t you let it go?”
“I do, boy, ki, no, uh!”
“Mmmm!”

He strangles her with both of her hands.
Suddenly, I hear the sound of bones being crushed.
Lilia hurriedly grabbed Aison’s hand and tried to undo her restraints by force, but to no avail.
There was too little strength to untie her.
As the already strong Aion became her Demon, she became stronger, so Lilia had no choice but to be pushed back in her strength.

‘I thought injecting madness would shorten the time…’

Would lead to this result
Lillia didn’t know what to do with it.

‘I thought you would be like me…’

Inject madness and she will become like herself.
Eroded by madness she can’t handle, she won’t even know what she wants.
She won’t even be able to tell what’s right and what’s wrong.
Even though she knows she shouldn’t, she will end up doing it all.
In the end, it’s for the best, and it’s the only way that leads to peace.
For that alone, she can indulge in pleasure.
She could live her whole life as a madman who lives only for pleasure.
She could make her a stupid little sister who only looks out for herself for the rest of her life.
Lilia thought she could be that way.
Any paladin eventually fell to madness and became a slave who swore allegiance to her sister, but would Aion be any different?

With this complacency, Lilia was on the verge of going to the threshold of her underworld.

She said, ‘I meant to finish it quickly, but what…’

She quickly subdues even the resistance of the roaster estate and returns to paradise.
She wants to go back and see if Paradise is running well.
So Lilia did it blindly.

Because of her recklessness, Lillia risked her life.

‘Is this guy doing this because he ate something wrong?’

She tried to drive me into madness, but I had no intention of turning her into an asshole.
How did the side effects occur?
Is it because Aion’s beliefs were stronger than he imagined?
Unfortunately, Lilia didn’t have time to analyze it.

“Ugh…”

Because my consciousness is getting blurry.
Lillia’s hands, which were holding Aion’s hands, gradually loosened.
If Aion gives her more power like this, Lilia will break her neck and die.

Of course, it wasn’t like she was leaving this world.
With the power of her goddess Atro, Lilia is able to come back to life right away.
Just because she survives, of course, doesn’t mean she doesn’t care if she dies recklessly.
I feel the pain she went through when she died.

So she has to solve this before disaster strikes.
But what should I say to make Aion listen to me?
She heard a voice come to Lilia who was somehow rolling her head.

“… I won’t give it to you.”
“Huh?”
“These are the people I kept. These are the people I will protect.”

The source of the voice is Aion.

“Who do you think will give it to you? Who do you think will let them manage? I will.”

Muttering
While muttering, Aion continues to shake her shoulders like a volcano that is about to burst.
The two eyes that turned purple were full of will.

It was full of maddening will to never hand it over to anyone.

‘Uh, maybe…’

This might work
Lillia struggled to open her mouth.

“Sah, if you want to save people, let go of this hand.”
“… What?”
“If I kill myself, I cannot guarantee the safety of those people.”

The beings that Aion values.
They are the only people who are considered ‘people’.
Lillia mentioned the refugees living in hiding in hiding.

“J-Now that, there is my subjugation army there.”
“…”
“If I die, I, my unit, will kill him, those people.”
“Do not lie. How can you find a place that even the vampires couldn’t find…”
“Five, five days have passed.”
“5 days?”
“Yes, five days have passed since you were locked in an egg and woke up!”

Little by little I catch my breath
It is proof that Aion loosened his restraints a little.
Lillia, who was able to breathe in her air a little, paused for a moment before continuing her speech.

“Ooh, we found an uhh hiding place in it. I caught all of them, all of which could not escape.”
“…”
“Mi, contact me in advance, I did. Eh, if today, even if the sun goes down, I, if I don’t come there, ah, take care of it, dispose of it.”
“Disposal, I said dispose now!”

At the word disposal, Aion was enraged.
The loose breath tightened again.
Lillia let out a painful moan at her tremendous grip.

“Huh…”
“Tell me what you plan to do to them!”
“Haha… No, no, no, no.”

Despite suffering, Lilia smiled.
A happy smile finally came through.

“Ha, but you, you can buy it roughly, you can imagine. What is that disposition?”
“…”
“If you want to stop it, let go of this hand. Hurry!”

Lilia screaming in reverse.
Aion glared at Lilia as if she were going to kill her, but she was the only one.

“Damn.”

Eventually Aion let go of his hand.
Barely free, Lilia coughed wildly at her.

“Cool, cool, cool… My hands are dirty once.”

Lillia, barely breathing, looked back at her brother.

“…”

The glaring death of her is still there.
However, there is a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
You must be worried about what people are doing now.
Through her conversations with Aion, Lillia realized the direction her madness had developed.

‘They’re such precious people.’

There are precious people.
There are people you have to protect.
We have to keep those people safe.
We must protect those people.

The wish to keep
The hope to be sure to protect has been tainted.

Only you can do it.
Cannot be handed over to anyone.
You cannot yield to anyone.
A very simple wish turned into a twisted desire.

If I hadn’t changed, I wouldn’t be muttering like a psychopath.

“I have to protect it, but I, I, I, I have to, I have to…”

I thought I was simply a bully, but I never thought madness would work this way.
Lilia let out a sigh of relief.
It was different from what I expected, but I still found a way to control this runaway locomotive.
Now you have to put the shackles around the neck of your precious little brother.
Lillia cautiously opened her mouth.

“If you want to keep it that way, you’d better follow my words.”
“What?”
“The people in the mountains who say they want to protect them.”

Lilia told us how she planned to use the hideout.

“I’m going to turn that lair into a kennel.”
“Farm?”
“They are raised like cattle.”
“I mean that!”
“I’m not done yet, so listen up!”

Aion throwing a clenched fist with his left hand.
Lillia took it with her right hand.
It was only what she had received, but her palms were tingling.

“I’ll just let you live a normal life. I have no intention of building a barn or anything!”
“What bullshit are you talking about?”
“I won’t care what you do for a living, as long as you regularly offer your blood to the vampires.”

Aion values ​​refugees.
He wants to manage those people himself.
He doesn’t want to hand over that duty to anyone.

If that’s the case, he’ll just give you that position.
Wouldn’t his younger brother accept it if he treated him unconventionally?

“You manage. I want you to be the caretaker of the kennel.”
“Concierge? See me?”
“Protect people, but offer blood to vampires. Vampires love it the most.”
“…””
“As long as you do that, Mr. Bathory won’t interfere in any way.”
“I think I will accept that!”

He made himself a manager.
To manage the people you cherish as livestock.
Who do you think would accept a sound like a dog?
Aion squeezed her right hand tightly.
Aion slammed his fist into his sister’s face.

“What’s up?”

Half of her head would have been blown off had Lillia not quickly lowered her head.
At the spot where Aion swung, a few strands of her severed red hair fluttered in the air.

“Why is it an overreaction to just offer blood? There is no other way to protect people anyway!”
“So you’re giving up? Are you telling me to give up like that and fall like you!”
“What?”

Aion said everything she saw in the bloodbath.

“I saw everything. What happened to her sister What a terrible fate she suffered.”
“My past?”
“Yeah, so I found out. She wondered why her sister was on her demon side.”

For the first time, Aion looked at her Lillia with sympathy.

“But this isn’t it.”

Her sympathy soon turned to disappointment.

“You’re going to get peace by doing this? Made with cattle? Is it okay to take good care of you?”
“…”
“To drive everyone to hell with something that doesn’t even sound like that, I’m really incensed.”

Lillia, hearing her words, was speechless.
It’s just that the green eyes tremble.

“Yes, as you said, it might be our destiny to end up like this. Because we are too weak to defeat the demons.”
“…”
“I should have found another way. Does it make sense to nod your head unconditionally to say that your eldest sister is right?”
“…”
“Sister, why didn’t you try that? Were you that afraid of your older sister?”

After a moment of silence, Lillia opened her mouth.

“…Then.”

Lillia struggled in her trembling voice.

“Can you change this hell?”
“…”

Aion was silent this time.

“Can you change this living hell with your power?”
“…”
“No, you cannot change. I can’t change either.”

Everything Aion pointed out is true.
If only she had had the slightest courage against Lilia.
If only she had had the strength to pluck up a little bit.
It may have been possible to prevent humans from being treated as livestock.

But is it really possible?

“You are strong, but you are alone. Can you overthrow it by yourself?”
“…”
“If that was possible, I would have done it.”

Everything has already been decided
Everything has already been confirmed.
It is impossible to break that fixed thing alone.
Because there are a lot of people who won’t keep an eye on it.
They are not the ones that Lilia can handle alone.
Of course, it is impossible for Aion to deal with them.
In the first place, it is not even a match itself.
It is as if she is going to end her own life.

So Lilia complied.
She complied and she decided to descend into madness.
Broken, broken, and pulverized, she came to her conclusion that submission was the only answer.

“What are you going to do? Are you going to arm your loved ones and put on a suicide show as a group?”
“…”
“Answer me, Aion.”

Do you have the power to reverse that conclusion?
Do you have the strength to sacrifice anything to turn it over?
At Lillia’s question, Aion sighed.

“… Shit.”

I can’t answer
Lillia’s behavior was wrong.
But she doesn’t have the power to right the wrong.
She doesn’t even have the power to overturn the wrong world.
It is not enough to deal with the monsters who have messed up the world alone.

But what about nurturing people into soldiers to fight?
Of course it’s unreasonable.
If it was possible in the first place, the recapture of Saint would not have failed.
Defeated and discovered, this option cannot be chosen.
They must have already blocked them from breeding again.

So I have no choice but to follow her sister’s words.
There is no choice but to compromise for people’s happy lives.
Have no choice but to retreat

If this is the only way to protect the people you care about, you have to accept it.

“Okay. I will accept it.”

Aion lowered his hands.

“But, be sure to guarantee it.”

Aion placed one condition.

“As long as I am the janitor, don’t touch them carelessly. I will take care of it.”

The eyes of the younger sister glaring at her older sister were murderous.

“OK got it. I’ll promise.”

Lilia agreed.
Normally, she would be very happy to hug her, but she didn’t feel like it right now.

“…”

She no longer feels remorse, so why does her heart hurt?
Lillia didn’t know.
