Chapter 35

Episode 35

A week has passed since that incident.

The criminal went to each and every night and harassed each and every member of the group as if he would not leave them alone.

There was no point in setting up security frequently and watching with eyes wide open without sleep.

I was exhausted from holding on and fell asleep. The moment I came to my senses, there was a sign on the wall saying, ‘How long can I hold on?’ ‘Isn’t it fun?’ ‘Keep holding on.’ ‘I haven’t even really enjoyed it yet.’ There was writing written in blood.

There was clearly an animal corpse lying underneath it.

The types of animals changed every day.

Rabbit fox... even wild boar.

What’s interesting is that those animals resemble the Iljin.

Animal corpses torn to pieces as if they wanted to make you do this too.

“Aaaah! “Please save me, please save me!”

“I don’t want to die!”

As time passed, the minds of the soldiers became devastated.

This is why invisible fear is scary.

Because I have to spend every day in fear, not knowing when or how I might be attacked and die.

No matter how hard the teachers tried to reveal the truth and stop it, it was no use.

In addition, they commissioned an outside agency, but even they were unable to catch the culprit.

So I have no choice but to be afraid.

‘The more I think about it, the more I like it.’

Even when we were working out together, I had doubts about whether I had made the right choice.

That’s right. Because his body has never exercised, he lacks stamina, which is one of the elements necessary for an assassin.

I have doubts as to whether he is really the one from the original.

But that doubt was put to rest.

An assassin that even the protagonist was afraid of.

Even I was horrified to see Mahol make up his mind and visit him at night.

And when morning came, he looked at the group with an expressionless face as if nothing had happened.

Since he had been bullied ever since he came here and always appeared helpless, no one thought that Mahol was the culprit.

Rather, surprisingly, it was me that they suspected.

Because I am the only one who came here and showed hostility to the Iljin people.

And I’m the only one with the power to do this.

Their suspicions can be seen as justified to some extent.

It’s not like I’m under suspicion for a day or two. This is better.

Rather than looking at someone as incompetent and despising them, it would be better to look at them in fear and not talk to them like they do now.

It’s not annoying and it’s comfortable.

How good. I can do whatever I want to my heart’s content without worrying about others.

Well, even if I didn’t do that, I would have done whatever I wanted.

‘Because your face is starting to show life.’

When I first saw Mahol, his condition was worse than that of a corpse.

I was living each day helplessly with dead eyes.

But now, there was a glimpse of life in his eyes.

You look great.

“Master, preparations are complete.”

Ellis came up to me after I changed into my going out clothes and said.

Instead of the black maid’s uniform she usually wore, she wore a gray dress in a lighter tone.

Well, it was the same shape as before, just the color was different.

Still, the clothes she wore were, in their own way, clothes for going out.

I scratched my cheek while looking at it.

Even though she was a maid, I felt like I didn’t really take care of her.

I can’t believe I only have clothes like that.

Still, she’s a girl.

‘I guess I should at least buy you some clothes.’

I received so much money from the vice principal that I can’t afford to buy a few clothes.

In addition, money came in periodically from the count’s family.

It’s okay to have that level of luxury.

“Are you really not going?”

“yes.”

“I like resting at home.”

Mahol and Reina laugh and say.

Mahol was peeling apples next to her, and next to her, a therapist was reaching out for Reina.

When I saw the light shining on his hand, I could tell that he was receiving treatment.

“What did you know? If you need anything, buy it with the money I gave you. “Eat your own food.”

“...yes?”

The lady looked at me as if she didn’t understand.

Ellis quickly turned his head and looked at me.

Her eyes widened very wide, showing that she was surprised as she did not show emotion easily.

Ignoring their reactions, he continued.

“About one or two pieces... all in different colors. Um... that would be fine.”

Even though I was talking non-stop, they were staring at me blankly.

Why are you looking at me like that? It’s embarrassing.

“What are you doing? “Aren’t you accepting guests?”

“ah. yes yes!”

The lady moves hurriedly.

“Master Do...”

“Don’t say anything, just say thank you and accept it. “Because there’s not much I can do for you.”

“...but this.”

“Well, it’s not that expensive. And why are you so surprised? Have I been like this for a day or two? Take it when I do it. “Don’t just go and regret it later.”

“...yes.”

She nodded quietly. And with an awkward expression, I accepted the woman’s touch.

When did she experience something like this?

I always made clothes based on other people’s shame.

They were taught to always do their job and not have any feelings towards their master.

It made her confused about how to accept the current situation.

What kind of nobleman would spend money on his maid?

The only time they spent money was to educate maids and to give and sell.

Other than that, let them live on their own.

In severe cases, there were cases where people worked without receiving any money.

“Not bad.”

I nodded, looking at her in the orange dress.

Since it was the original, it was okay to wear anything.

She kept raising and lowering her arms and making an awkward face, as if she couldn’t get used to the dress she was wearing.

“hmm. “Give me some of that too.”

However, I felt somewhat disappointed with that, so I picked up a few trinkets from the store.

Then I hung it on her and looked at it.

I bought a few of the things that matched best with the dress.

Two dresses, one necklace and two bracelets.

In total, we got about this amount of gold.

The maid’s salary was about fifty silver.

Did he think he had spent too much money on himself?

She hesitated and looked at me.

“It’s not that expensive. Take care. “Don’t lose something you bought without even trying it on.”

“...yes.”

She held a shopping bag containing dresses and accessories in her arms.

And he spoke in a very quiet voice.

“Thank you....”

“What?”

“it’s nothing.”

It was time to go back to the dorm with a smile on her face as she shook her head.

“Hmm...”

I felt an unfamiliar presence.

Out of all the people, the most blatant gaze is staring at me.

When I followed his gaze and rolled my eyes, I saw several masked men glaring at me from the alley and the roof of the building.

What is it?

Why are you staring at me?

It was too blatant to say no, so I couldn’t just ignore it.

Plus, it gives off the air of living there.

“Ellis.”

“Yes...”

She nods at my signal.

Then he said there was a delicious place and led me to a place with few people.

They follow me.

It became clear. They are targeting me.

I don’t know why, but I have no intention of letting go of the guys who are targeting me.

They chose the wrong opponent for a long time.
