Episode 141. Execution Power (6)

Girls want to be the main characters in beautiful romance novels.

I want to be immersed in burning passion and have a picturesque love affair with my lover.

It might have been different for someone living down there, but Celine, who lived in the city center, was entitled to dream of it.

Beautiful cosmetics and perfumes made by her father’s company, luxurious villas and gorgeous dresses.

Celine, who watched and enjoyed it as if she was breathing, naturally believed that a bright future would unfold before her.

But that wish became reality the moment she became an adult, and was shattered again.

It was a common story. A meeting between a warm and charming man who is nothing special and the beautiful daughter of the president of a large cosmetics company.

A rosy atmosphere bloomed. A strange current flowed between the man and woman, and they held each other’s hands like flowing water.

But like most tragic love stories, their meeting never happened.

Celine’s parents, the president of Elessharmony and her husband, thought the status of the ‘handsome successor’ was too lowly.

Objectively, I was not the type of person who would be called ‘lowly’ just by coming into the city center and meeting Celine face to face.

But even within that, there were differences in status. People divided people into different classes based on numerous factors such as corporate assets, trust, connections, and academic background.

In the eyes of the parents of the daughter, the man was a very unattractive person.

He was just a baseless scoundrel who approached her daughter without any love and only after her money.

They used every means at their disposal to keep Celine away from the man: threats, anger, pleading, declarations of disownment.

And among them, there was also the one that cut out all the people who tried to help Celine.

Celine, disillusioned with it, left the place.

Because she thought freedom was more important than everything she had.

“Well, that’s the story. It’s not that interesting, is it?”

“Lu, Luna, you were a really tall person, weren’t you?”

“Not now. I have already declared a breakup, and we have no relationship anymore.”

Luna, who had told the whole story, looked up at the ceiling with a relieved face.

“But when you say you cut it off… does that mean you killed it? The people who worked for you?”

“Not quite that much… but maybe not that much different. My butler was a good man. But he got kicked out after all his implants were removed.”

This was something that did not make sense to Doris or Ravina, who had been living in the back alleys as if they were home, but it was like a death sentence to the people of the central district.

It was no different from people who lived as wealthy people in developed countries being dropped into a remote area where civil war, violence, murder, and rape were constant.

Those who openly say, “What does it matter to me if thousands of people starve to death in Africa?” end up in the same situation as those “thousands of people” who are not remembered by anyone.

“Maybe I was being unreasonable. I was the one begging to see that person. I made things difficult for other people.”

It wasn’t like much time had passed, but Luna was clearly ashamed of herself back then.

“I didn’t know it would be this bad. Your mother too…… I hate to say this, but she was really bad. How could someone like that…….”

There was sympathy and comfort in Ravina’s eyes. Luna gently stroked Ravina.

“Well, that doesn’t have to be the case. After all, what Mom said was true.”

“The person I was trying to meet was said to have a messy relationship with women. He was texting and meeting up with a few other women besides me… It seems like that’s what happened. Mom must have been vaguely aware of it.”

Although her body was far from the central area, she was talented at hacking. She could hear and see simple news and rumors from afar, if not security facilities.

“to…….”

They were not the protagonists of a romance novel. Real love is not as sweet and beautiful as love in stories.

“But I don’t think my mother… wasn’t a good person. The person she tried to set me up with next was Brooks.”

“Brooks? The guy who got arrested this time?”

“Yeah. I was famous back then too… but I had a lot of money.”

They were ‘ambiguously’ bad parents to their daughter.

“If you meet the right person and want to have a truly romantic love, then go for it. But if you chose someone who is such a piece of trash, then you should meet a man we choose for you… something like that.”

From an objective point of view, even if Luna and Celine had married Brooks back then, it might not have been as unfortunate as expected.

Instead of giving her body to a man she doesn’t love, she can live the life of a ‘wife of the center district.’

In Stella City, there were never fewer people who wanted it.

“Still, I like it now. I really think so.”

There is someone who will listen to her story. There is someone who truly cares about her.

Luna hugged her new family tightly.

“But, how did this story start… Ah! Then what will happen to Elessharmony now?”

“I don’t know. If Hansan tries to take over that company, he’ll get arrested, or something… I don’t really want to worry about it. It’s not related to me anymore.”

Elecharmony has long been notorious for its horrific exploitation, a practice that belies its flashy appearance.

Beneath their lofty luxury lay the blood and sweat of others. Luna tried to avert her eyes from there.

“It was a place that couldn’t be maintained without exploitation in the first place. It was a bit strange that the company came to Hansan’s side…….”

But as she grew up and learned business, she realized she couldn’t turn a blind eye to it any longer.

The freedom and happiness she had were not free.

The expensive wine in the glass was made from someone’s blood. To make the sweet perfume she uses, countless people continued to work while exposed to toxic substances.

“It has nothing to do with me.”

Luna, too, didn’t have the courage to change it. Even if she had tried, it wouldn’t have changed anything.

Now, Luna was free.

Until recently, I had been living a life driven by money, but at least I didn’t have to live on someone else’s blood.

Neither guilt nor blood ties bound her.

“But shouldn’t we meet at least once?”

“……No need.”

Doris looked at Luna with gentle eyes.

“To be honest, I don’t know how you feel right now. You probably don’t understand. My family, they were really good people.”

Doris’s chest tightened as forgotten memories came back to her.

“I know you might hate me for saying this, but, um. But… to be honest, you know, I envy you.”

Doris, too, did not consider the people she was with now as family.

But the fact that her blood relatives still survived was a stroke of luck that Doris would never have again.

“Thank you… but no. I don’t want to do that.”

Luna shook her head.

You’ll never miss them again. Probably, ever.

“Why are you stockpiling so much stuff? Why don’t you just go in, sweep everything away, and come out?”

“It must be easy for a fool to live in this world. He doesn’t think.”

Alex looked at the mercenary in front of him with a disgruntled expression.

In Stella City, it wasn’t wise to judge a person’s age by their appearance, but by all accounts, they looked young.

It wasn’t because of his young and handsome appearance that I thought that way. His bad attitude and fearless demeanor showed the typical vigor of youth.

“It must be hard to live in this world. What’s so hard about making plans and thinking about it…… Well, cheer up.”

He is a man who has never experienced frustration. Alex recalled his past.

I used to think that way too when I was younger. Elecharmony was a huge company, and I believed I was strong because I was part of it.

It was ironically after he left that he realized how weak an individual was in Stella City and how many lives could be worthlessly sacrificed at the whim of the CEO.

“If you have any complaints, please speak up.”

“Yeah… I apologize. I was foolish. There’s no way a mercenary who would participate in such a crazy thing could be a proper guy.”

“You’re aware of it? To be honest, I still don’t understand. Why would a weakling like you attack Elecharmoni?”

Alex kept his mouth shut. There couldn’t have been a reason for that.

Miss Celine had disappeared. Nominally, she was missing, but it was common sense that the daughter of a large corporation like Elecharmony would not disappear in the blink of an eye.

There was no way everyone would forget her existence and pass by, as if such a person had never existed in the first place.

It’s a purge. Miss Celine, who tried to protect him until the end, has now disappeared into the darkness of this city.

I thought he had forgotten. I thought his new life had begun, one of seeking justice rather than revenge.

But the past held him back and wouldn’t let go.

“Because it’s something that needs to be done.”

In that case, he too had no choice but to move towards the past.
