Breaking Up With the Heroine in an Otome Game - Breaking Up With the Heroine in an Otome Game chapter 50

50 – Midterm Exam (2)

050.

Wheee.

Wind.

A cold wind is blowing.

A cool breeze blew through Roxanne’s hair beyond the window of the hallway on the third floor of the Academy chapel, where she didn’t feel like she was popular.

Roxanne’s light pink hair fluttered here and there in the strong wind. Her neat appearance was also a little disheveled.

Her eyes, which were once clear as if the sunny sky had been gathered together, were filled with gloomy dark clouds. Her eyes were full of agony, worry, and suffering.

Roxanne quietly looked up at the sky with a shadowy face.

As clouds were gathering as if a shower was about to fall, the chapel hallway was slowly being engulfed in darkness.

She slowly closed her eyes and tried to pray to God as always.

It was then.

“Hello?”

Right behind Roxanne’s back.

“Has it been quite a while? “Roxanne.”

A girl’s voice rang out in the hallway.

It was a delicate and thin voice, but I could feel a hint of sharpness.

It struck Roxanne’s ear like a sharp dagger.

As she slowly moved her head to check the source of her voice, an image of a familiar figure appeared in Roxanne’s bluish eyes.

It was Seong Yu-ra.

“I’ve been busy these days, so I haven’t been able to come to the academy often.”

Seong Yu-ra walked towards Roxanne step by step with a slightly upset expression.

“I don’t know if I’ll end up repeating a grade if I keep doing this.”

I walk up to Roxanne’s house, brushing her short hair once, and then look at her smiling face.

“Isn’t that right, Roxanne?”

The dark hallway is strangely quiet.

Even though it is a chapel hallway, it is okay for some trainees or believers to walk around.

Right now, the only people in this hallway were Roxanne and Seong Yu-ra. It was as if someone had deliberately blocked passage in the hallway.

“Oh my, Roxanne. “Why are you so silent?”

“… ….”

“I’m a classmate you haven’t seen in a long time, but aren’t you being too cold?”

“…… You.”

Roxanne looked straight at Seong Yu-ra with slightly trembling eyes and muttered. Even though she was her classmate, the evil deeds that Seong Yu-ra had committed so far caught Roxanne’s eyes.

“What on earth are you thinking?”

“Huh? “What does that mean?”

“Seong Yu-ra, why did you do such a thing…….”

“Aha, hahahahaha.”

Seong Yu-ra, who was shaking her shoulders and giggling with a mischievous expression, suddenly tilted her head once.

“Why? “What have I done?”

Roxanne couldn’t help but slightly bite her lower lip because she had a really unsure expression on her face.

“What you have done so far…… And this time, they sent people to make threats…… Seong Yu-ra, why are you… ….”

“Is there any evidence?”

Seong Yu-ra tilts her head with her smiling face.

“The Republic of Korea basically adheres to the principle of presumption of innocence, right? But why are you treating me like a criminal without any evidence?”

“… ….”

“I have never even been indicted. Ah, of course, I don’t know how many prosecutors would be willing to file charges against me.”

“… ….”

“Even if I were to stand before the court, there were a lot of people with pens and gold badges who constantly took my pocket money or caught my weaknesses. At best, I think I’ll get probation. Oh, of course, he will be found not guilty before that due to insufficient evidence.”

Sung Yu-ri walks right in front of Roxanne and speaks.

“You know, in our country, there aren’t many cases where we can do something based on circumstances alone, Roxanne.”

“Even if there is no evidence to convict, it does not necessarily mean that the person is not guilty.”

“The opposite of the South is not always the North?”

Clearly the opposite direction to south is north, but just because it is not south does not necessarily mean it is north.

Is this the difference between not guilty and not guilty?

“Kick. But what’s the use of it all, Roxanne? “If you can’t prove it anyway, it’s of no use.”

Seong Yu-ra ridiculed Roxanne’s foolishness.

“Look. “You’ve been trying so hard to bring me to court, but I’m still fine?”

“Seong Yu-ra… ….”

What can you do when you have no ability, connections, power, or wealth, Roxanne?

“Justice without power is always powerless.”

Human life does not forgive weakness.

Your mercy is dogmatic nonsense and your justice is nothing but eternal original sin.

Exhibiting sympathy and mercy to the weak and standing up to the strong in the name of justice would be a foolish act that goes against the laws of nature.

“Only the strong can show mercy and punish.”

Roxanne Are you strong enough to punish me and strong enough to forgive me?

“Roxanne. The reason you’ve been fine so far is because I didn’t touch you directly. Thanks to my mercy. “Unlike how you dare not do anything to me.”

Ah, Roxanne, you foolish woman.

Why are you choosing between means and methods when you are so weak?

I wouldn’t dare afford that. There is no other way to express it than that it is truly foolish to choose means and methods in a situation where ability, power, wealth, and everything else are unfavorable.

You are right, but you are weak.

You are sorely lacking in the power to establish justice and laws.

On the other hand, what about me?

You try to define me as evil and condemn me, but do the people of the world dare to call me evil?

“Roxanne, do you know what? I have a foundation in my name. “We donate a lot to underprivileged children.”

“You.”

“It’s commonly referred to as dirty money, but what do you think? Who cares how you make your money? We can help many innocent children. “Don’t you think it helps society much more than you do?”

Both good deeds and evil deeds ultimately require strength to be able to be performed.

Unlike you, who are weak, I can do many things.

“Roxanne. You are definitely right. “Your rightness will definitely give you strength.”

Many people who watched you walk would have felt frustrated by your difficult steps, but at the same time, they could not help but envy you.

Your behavior of walking barefoot on a thorny path makes people who see you feel envious of you and want to admire you.

Because humans respect and revere people who can do what they cannot do and what they have dreamed of in their hearts.

In that sense, your steps were so dazzling.

I wondered how a human could do something like that, but at the same time, I had no choice but to follow your footsteps as if possessed.

Because you walked forward, silently facing all kinds of hardships and adversities, hardships and hardships, without the slightest complaint.

“But that is both your strength and your great weakness.”

Your righteous steps blinded people.

Like a bonfire shining brightly in the dark, people gathered together and basked in your warm light. Like an insect attracted to a light.

And the light even blinded the eyes of the beast that was crouching in the dark.

“There’s no rule that says only good people are led by your footsteps, right?”

The beast saw.

Insects that want to see that brilliant light.

I didn’t like the sight of ugly bugs gathering in that light. So the beast opened its mouth wide and swung its molars and sharp claws. I carefully trampled and crushed the bugs one by one. To bask in that light alone.

“I’m actually like other people. “I like you a lot.”

Seong Yu-ra laughed heartily.

Ah, yes, Roxanne, I am also intoxicated with you.

The footsteps and history you have walked so far were incomprehensible to Seong Yu-ra.

Even though you were born in a similar environment to me and went through asceticism, why can you be so righteous? Why do you believe in God? Why help people and get justice right?

You are so bright, like the light I once longed for.

That’s why I love and hate you so much.

Because I know very well that I can’t be like you.

Because I know that I have reached a path of no return.

“Seong Yu-ra, it’s not too late, so… ….”

“Why? “If you ask for forgiveness, will the God you believe in forgive your sins?”

Seong Yu-ra shrugged her shoulders.

“Roxanne, Roxanne…… If you want to stop me, there’s really only one way. You know it well, right? Or do you want me to help you?”

“…… Ah.”

Suddenly, Seong Yu-ra swipes her hand! She stretched out her arms and grabbed both of Roxanne’s wrists, then she slowly brought them to her neck.

And she slowly, very slowly applied her strength.

So that she could choke herself.

“Okay. “It’s just you and me here, Roxanne.”

“What are you doing?”

“What are you doing? “I’m giving you a chance.”

“What?”

I could see that the power of Seong Yura was being transmitted more and more strongly to her fingertips.

Seong Yu-ra smiled brightly as if she was happy even though Roxanne was using her hands to strangle herself.

“Do you think I am the ordeal given by God? “Then stop praying and start moving yourself.”

“Come on, Seong Yu-ra!”

“Even if it means getting blood on my hands and going against your ethics, shouldn’t a villain like me be stopped somehow?”

“Stop it, Seong Yu-ra!”

“You just need to apply a little more strength to your hands here. Easy? Because I won’t resist. No, I will actually help you…… “Oh my.”

Tap!

Roxanne slapped St. Yura’s hand away with all her might.

Seong Yu-ra gently rubbed her neck as if she suddenly felt sorry for her.

Her slightly reddish handprint remained. If Roxanne had used her magic to strangle her, her fragile neck vertebrae would have been broken like nothing.

“You don’t want to get blood on her hands? Don’t you want to commit a crime? You’re roughly anticipating what I’m going to do next. “If you don’t want to hear the sobbing of countless victims, I think now might be a good opportunity.”

“You are crazy, Seong Yu-ra.”

“I’m crazy too, but Roxanne, isn’t that the same for you?”

Looking at Roxanne who was faltering, Seong Yu-ra smiled pleasantly.

“I have defeated the people around you in many ways.”

“… ….”

“We used a variety of methods, but basically, when you threaten people like family, friends, or lovers, most of them just back down?”

“… ….”

“But you’re not like that, right?”

“I… ….”

“Ordinary people, no matter how kind and good people they are, usually react like this when they feel that people around them will get hurt because of them.”

Seong Yu-ra secretly raised her voice.

“I will do as you say, so please don’t mess with my family. I won’t do this anymore, so please look after me…” … Well, the weak have no choice but to rely on the strong to protect their precious people. Even if the strong person is a wicked person.”

“… ….”

“But not you. “Even though I threaten you with the people around you, you feel sad and struggle somehow, but you never once beg me not to do that, why?”

Smile lightly.

“Because to you, that’s not right.”

Accepting and acquiescing to the demands of villains and the like went against Roxanne’s correct sense of justice.

Therefore, Roxanne did not pay attention to the threats of the villain Seong Yu-ra.

“Of course, it is wrong to meekly accept the threats of a villain. Okay. You are right So, it’s inevitable that you will always get hurt.”

Because fish cannot live in clear water.

How pitiful.

“You don’t ignore the struggles of people around you and you don’t rationalize them.”

She endures the raw wounds with her whole body without any self-flagellation, such as saying that she should not fall for the threats of evil people, or that there is nothing she can do because it is the right thing to do.

“Even if you get criticized by people who blame you and say it’s because of you, you just give her an apology with a sad face and don’t make any excuses. Even though so many people who follow you are groaning, there is nothing you can do but foolishly pray to God, right?”

That’s because you were weak before you were upright and good.

Because you are weak, rather than doing what you think is right, you will have no choice but to watch countless people groan, unable to properly punish even evildoers like me.

“Seong Yu-ra, why are you doing this? “What on earth is your purpose?”

“I…… ? Well.”

Seong Yu-ra kicks and bursts into laughter again.

“I just wish you were like me.”

I want to extinguish your bright light.

I want to make you realize that the path you believe is right is wrong.

I want to color and contaminate your thoughts and values with my colors.

“You know, Roxanne.”

After taking a sideways glance at Roxanne’s face, he tells her one truth.

“While hiking Yeongsan this time, I found Mateo Evans lying on the ground, barely able to breathe.”

“…… “If it’s Matteo Evans, no way.”

“He was a famous guy in the underworld, but I never imagined he would end up in such a mess.”

Among Seong Yu-ra’s subordinates, there are few who are as outstanding as Mateo in interpersonal combat. He was a useful subordinate in his own right. She was left almost crippled. She is still unconscious.

“The rumor spread among the people below. “In fact, there is a force that is helping you.”

“You know very well that that can’t be possible. “If you are.”

“You don’t know, right? “Could there be a group or organization that I don’t know about that is secretly helping you?”

“What happened at that time was simply a coincidence.”

“First of all, we also did our own investigation and there were traces of battle halfway up Yeongdeungsan Mountain. Circumstances where something like a sword dealer was used were also discovered. “We also secured statements like Kim Deok-oh’s.”

“What did you do to Mr. Kim Deok-oh?”

“Don’t worry, I didn’t do anything special.”

I really didn’t do anything.

So don’t look at me like that, Roxanne.

“Anyway, there were even traces of Mateo running away during the battle. Hmm. This is a bit shocking. Because if indigo is sold on this floor, there will be no business. Three people, including Mateo, were assigned to us, but it wasn’t enough that they were robbed and they ran away? Ah, rumors are spreading quietly. Nawon, indeed.”

“You… ….”

“Actually, I had no intention of causing trouble for a while.”

But I changed my mind.

“It’s strange. It was the first time I touched you directly and something like that happened. It’s a bit hard to dismiss it as a coincidence, right? I was curious as to whether there was really another force behind you, and I was also kind of pissed. So, I’m going to try something like this already.”

No matter how Seong Yu-ra was, she wouldn’t have acted like this if she were alone, but whether it was luck or bad, Seong Yu-ra wasn’t alone.

Because I was interacting with crazy, evil people who were looking for an opportunity.

“Seong Yu-ra, what on earth are you trying to do?”

“It’s nothing special. I just wanted to touch it once. Is there really a secret force behind you? Oh, your friends might get hurt a little~ a lot in the process, but hey, guess what? You’re not going to compromise anyway. Stick to what you believe is right. “Be yourself.”

“… ….”

“Roxanne. “If you want to stop me, you’re going to have to compromise with yourself, get your hands dirty, and make a move.”

“I… ….”

“You can go and tell the instructor or other trainees, or you can report this to the media or church. Oh, of course, I don’t know if I will believe your story.”

After a leisurely laugh, we quietly move on.

“See you later then, Roxanne. Midterm exams are coming soon, right? “You have to be strong.”

She was Roxanne, who was staring at Seong Yu-ra endlessly from behind, but she only slightly bit her lip and clenched her fists tightly.

– There’s nothing you can do but foolishly pray to God, right?

Seong Yu-ra’s words come to mind again.

– Roxanne. If you want to stop me, you’re going to have to compromise with yourself, get your hands dirty, and make a move.

“… ….”

Roxanne couldn’t say anything.

Nothing to say.
