Chapter 262 – The Nightmare of Excessive Obsession – 3

Judging by its size, it is a village where many people would have lived in the past.
Now it looked like a junkyard full of junk, or a grim ruin haunted by ghosts,
That’s why I thought it was the perfect place to hide.

“Don’t relax.”

Lisa let his words go slowly.
We followed Lisa, wary of ambush.
In the middle of the big boulevard, the remains of collapsed buildings piled up like a mountain.
It seemed unreasonable to ride a horse and pass in front of it.

Of course, this amount of rubble can be removed by destroying it with magic, but of course it will make a loud noise.

“What would you like to do?”

Blam asked Lisa.
Lisa glanced at the pile of rubble, looked around, and said.

“There doesn’t seem to be an ambush.
If it attacks, now is the best opportunity, but there is no sign of it.
Let’s rest in this village until dawn.”

“Maybe it’s an abandoned village?”

“Well. Does anyone know anything about this town?”

No one is stepping out
If you look at the traces of time cast like shadows on a relatively intact house,
This nameless village seemed to have been abandoned for 50 years.

“You’d better find a place to rest.
Oia. Please be vigilant.”

“Shall we investigate first?”

“Okay.”

“Bruno! Let’s go together.”

“I am alone enough to investigate.”

“No!
What if something is dangerous? Like a bear trap!”

“Why are there bear traps in the Abandoned Village?”

Everyone got off their horses and tied them to their proper places.
The rear support team is busy moving.
Horse care, surrounding vigilance, investigation… Is the nameless town a good place to hide?
During the review process,

Lisa called the rest.

“Decal. What was your impression of seeing the half-demon in person?”

“The wound has healed, and I am much stronger than before.”

Lisa knows it, but it’s an important fact, so I’ll point it out.

“Yes. It must have been a fatal wound,
Recovery and growth are so fast. Like…”

Lisa stopped talking.
Like… Like an agent of the goddess?
It seems that there is a corner of the point, but I couldn’t say it carelessly.

Me, the warrior, and Park Seo-yeon have something in common.
The point is that all three of them are agents of the goddess and are under the protection of the goddess.
Seoyeon received the protection of jealousy, and the hero received the protection of light.

I have both the protection of fire and the protection of light.
But, funny enough, I’m the weakest out of the three.

Thanks to Shia’s help, he became strong enough not to die suddenly, but the situation is not good.
Even if you hypnotize Seo-yeon with her, she should be something to talk to face-to-face.
But I didn’t know that Seoyeon would come out like that.

This was unexpected.

“It is nothing.
Tell me what Decal thinks.”

“Unless it comes down from the sky, there is no way we can touch it from this side.
Although some of us can fly and fight…”

All eyes were on Herka.
Herka muttered with a confused expression.

“…I don’t have a gap.
All I can do is hurriedly avoid it while busy casting reinforcement magic, defense magic, and protection magic.”

“Is there any way to drop Seoyeon?”

“It’s impossible to shoot her down in the air. That girl, she’s flying way faster than she looks.”

Is flying…
It’s a pity that ISTY is not there at this time.
I could call it whenever I took out the clams, but I didn’t want to.
Nightmare claws, savage monsters, alien monsters…

It’s not a sight you can show your child’s mother.
The work here is handled here.
I’m determined to be able to do that much.

“Maybe I can make it come down.”

You can’t think rationally.
I approach it with Park Seo-yeon’s way of thinking as much as possible.

“What way?”

Everyone focused on my story.

“One thing is certain.
The fact that Park Seo-yeon showed up as if she knew all about our location and she opened fire,
He only cares about me. Neither the Demon King’s Army nor the Guerrilla Army would be interested at all.”

Tonyus nodded his head.

“I think so too. It’s to the extent that I came all the way here chasing after Decal.”

Said Herka, crossing her arms.

“But the woman tried to neutralize her rangers.
Then she knows her purpose will be served.”

“Okay.
But if you ask me to choose between me and the guerrillas, I’ll definitely choose me.”

“That’s it, but…”

“Why wouldn’t you come down in the first place?
It must be because other people can do something with their strength, but Lisa can’t.”

You won’t know the real reason until you hear it yourself.
From the circumstances, it is correct to assume that it was because Lisa was by her side.

“Because you’ve been defeated by a hero once?”

“Lisa was so overpowering.”

No matter how Seoyeon raises her level, Lisa can’t win.
There is no ‘one in ten’.
The gap between the two was so great.

“…”

“Herka. Is there anything strange about it?”

“According to Decal, the other guys don’t think much of it. She’s that woman.”

“Yes.”

“If it were me, I would have been strongly conscious of the hero.
No, she couldn’t have been conscious. He was an opponent who gave me a taste of humiliation and insult called defeat,
Target… Aren’t you even becoming a stumbling block on the way to getting the In Decal? Wouldn’t it have been natural to attack the hero at random?”

“That’s a very normal sentiment.”

“A normal sensibility?”

Herka tilted her head as if she didn’t understand what I was saying.
I said with a smile.

“There are things that even a genius girl doesn’t know.”

“What is it!? Don’t make me wonder, hurry up.”

Herka looks cute.

“It’s simple, you know.
I said there is a way to bring Seoyeon down. And what did you say next?”

“That crazy woman only cares about decals?”

“Okay.”

That day.
The day I broke up with Park Seo-yeon, I made Park Seo-yeon the most unlucky woman in the world.
I didn’t mean to do that…
It’s a fact that I found out later, but at that time, I was out of my mind due to the interference of the goddess.
Even if I use that as an excuse, there is no doubt that I made a suggestion with my own will.

The problem starts here.

My childhood friend Park Seo-yeon, who was only instigated after receiving her dating advice from Efe,
My suggestion drives you crazy.

“Everything is broken except for me.”

“…”

“There’s no way I’d feel humiliated if I lost.
It’s just a fact that you can’t win against Lisa,
I don’t know if it’s a rival, but I can’t think of paying back as much as I suffered.”

Herka seemed to notice something about her.

“That’s the way decals speak. Maybe…”

“Yeah. Just get away so far that Lisa can’t help me.
With that alone, Seoyeon will come down.”

“Do you mean to deliberately leave you in danger?”

Lisa looked stunned.

“You should try it.
You can’t touch her unless she comes down anyway, right?”

“…”

“I gave you all my thoughts.
Decide. Lisa.”

It seems embarrassing.
Even with her helmet on, she could feel Lisa’s embarrassment.

“Decal, you’re taking on Park Seo-yeon’s opponent.
It is an entirely different matter if I deliberately leave you in danger.
Are you clear?”

“I know.”

“I can’t allow it.”

“Lisa…”

“If you’re afraid of me, even more so.
I, Decal, will not fall from your side.”

“…”

It was an unexpectedly exciting statement.

“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear this.”

“Then the way…”

“There is a way.”

Lisa said firmly.
I was stunned and speechless.

“You don’t know yet,
The people gathered here, including the support team, are the ones I trust the most.
If we all think together, we will surely find a way.”

“…”

Obvious words.
It’s obvious, but…
When the hero said that, I couldn’t help but laugh.
Everyone seemed to have the same feeling, and a heartwarming laugh spread through the gloomy ruins.

“What, what is it?
I’m not kidding. I’m sincere.”

“I know. I understand why everyone follows the hero.”

“Hmm.”

Angel nodded,
Tonius continues to laugh nonchalantly.

“This is true.
Looks like it’s the wizards’ turn.
Miss Herka. Would you like to think of a way together?”

“Uh…”

Herka groaned as if his head was already complicated.

“Is there no choice but to create a new magic…”

What now… ?

“Lord.
If you think about it some more time, you might come up with a good idea.”

Until Neris…

“Okay.
I’ll have to ask the support team as well. You might have a good idea.”

Lisa said happily.

“That’s the heart. Decal.
You don’t have to try to do anything alone. Because we can work together and move forward together.
A team for that, a guerrilla squad for that.”

“…”

What.
The cramped iron helmet Lisa is wearing also looks pretty.
The heart is also pretty is what I mean at times like this.
It’s so dazzling that I can’t see straight through it.

“The rear support team is returning.”

Bruno’s findings.
The unnamed village has been confirmed to be safe.

“There are many dangerous monsters nearby, so there is no one in the village.
If there was at least one inhabited village nearby, it would have become a base for thieves or a hideout for the homeless.”

After hearing Bruno’s report, Lisa nodded and said,

“It’s a good thing for us.
Go into a suitable building and rest.”

“Yes~! Ah, hero.
We also found a nice house. Song!”

Oia speaks in a bright voice.

“Um. I wish I had a bed.”

All walk in one direction along Oia.
What is Seoyeon doing right now?
As much as we have dealt with her hypnosis countless times, we can only vaguely imagine what happened in Seo-yeon’s mind.

“If I’m not there, I’ll be unhappy.”

When you were away from me, your quality of life would have been tolerable, but
After I was stabbed to death, he must have suffered from a terrible depression because he would never see me again.
To the extent that her heart can’t stand it and collapses.

People who have become like that cannot survive without relying on strong drugs.
You may be isolated from society.

But,
My hypnosis is so powerful that even broken-hearted humans won’t let go.
Seoyeon must have tried to soothe her heartache by thinking of me.

She had no choice but to do so in order to get out of the suggestion.
It would be a little better if you deceive yourself like ‘I’ll meet her brother soon’.
If thinking of me is salvation.
It’s not too late to become an obsession.

Considering the mental pain she must have suffered, there is nothing strange about her dismembering monsters and humans in another world.
Park Seo-yeon, a kind and lovely female college student, and now Park Seo-yeon are completely different beings.
But she is apparently also the same person.

Suddenly, she felt strange.
“If I’m not there, I’ll be unhappy”…

This is all the suggestion he gave to Seo-yeon.
Love me even by mistake! She did not make the same suggestion.
In the first place, the hint of unhappiness was what we walked when our relationship was broken.

If stabbed with a sword was to stay with me forever,
Why is that guy… Don’t you hate me?
Even if you don’t know her hypnosis, how could her life be so ruined because of me?

“…”

Neris looked back at me who stopped her feet.

“My lord. Why is that?”

“…Nothing.”

“Even if you say nothing with that expression, no one will believe it.”

“He hasn’t given up yet.”

“Yes?”

I thought of Seoyeon as my karma.
Indeed, she leapt the world after me.
If I had been spending time leisurely in a dry village, I would have come across it.
They say they won’t kill me, but I don’t know what will happen to people, so I might have turned into a corpse.

She wouldn’t have come this far without Sia’s design.
Karma is karma, but it wasn’t karma to make me pay for my sins.
I have to save

“I’m hungry. Let’s go.”

“This is a place. You wouldn’t expect a great meal.
Shall I give you my share?”

“Why did I steal Neris’s…”

At just the right time, a gurgling sound came from Neris’ stomach.

“…”

Neris strides ahead, dyeing her ears red.

“You’re hungry. Our Neris.”

“It’s just a physiological phenomenon.”

“Shall we eat full today? I’ll summon clams.”

Stop.
Her feet stopped.

“Are you squeamish?”

“…Are you going to take everyone?”

“Can you do that?
Men are not allowed in my castle. Even women, only those who are chosen can enter.”

“It must be the woman chosen by the master’s standards.”

“Well, being pretty is basic. Having a good body is even better, and being strong is the best.”

“However, I’m a bit reluctant to treat myself favorably without other members.”

“You can bring food.
I’ll ask you to make a packed lunch.”

“Good idea.”

“I’ll tell you when the time is right, so please keep your words in line.”

“Please leave it to me.”

Neris’ eyes were full of enthusiasm.
It’s not food shortage, but delicious rice is still important.

“Decal~. Neris~. It’s here! Come on!”

Oia waving her hand and calling us from afar.
Bruno is restless by her side, saying he shouldn’t make loud noises.
Behind her was a fairly large mansion.
