I Became a Framed Villain - I Became a Framed Villain chapter 188

188 – Resolution

“…Sister?”

“…………”

“What’s wrong?”

I stared blankly at my older sister for a long time as she lowered her head, completely losing the light in her eyes. Then, I cupped her cheeks and opened my mouth in a trembling voice.

“No, right?”

Although she tried to deny that it couldn’t be like that, her cheeks were too cold for a living person’s skin.

“My sister… There’s no way she could die like this…?”

But still, I held my sister’s shoulder and shook her while muttering to myself.

“Well, I was too harsh a while ago. My sister must have been out of her mind, too. There were so many things that were intertwined with each other…”

– Shake it off…

“So…”

When my older sister, who had been continuously shaking against me, lost her balance and fell to the floor helplessly, I stopped what she was saying and began to look down at her quietly.

“…………”

And then the eerie silence began.

“Story….”

In that bloody silence, I was forcing myself to continue the words that were coming out of nowhere.

“Let’s do it… I was going to do it.”

Soon she quietly lowered her head and gritted her teeth.

“…Is it already too late?”

From her wrist, which she placed with her trembling hand, she could not feel the slightest pulse.

No, if I actually felt it, it would have been even weirder.

Because her sister’s wounds were so serious that the bones and organs inside her were visible.

Unless you have augmentation abilities or healing abilities, if you are left with such injuries, it is natural that you will lose your life in less than a few seconds, let alone a few minutes.

– Kuuk…

As I quietly recall that fact, my fists are clenched so hard that it hurts.

Even though my sister suffered fatal injuries that would not have been surprising if she died instantly, she held on until now in order to leave behind the words she had just left to someone.

They even went so far as to prevent them from harming Pandora, the cause of the attack.

“…If only I had come a little faster.”

If I had come a little faster, could I have prevented things from happening like this?

I wish I hadn’t gone to the academy from the beginning.

No, if only I hadn’t turned away my sister and put off sharing her story with her because she was in over her head.

Could it be that my sister, who had the possibility of returning to her original relationship after ten years, did not die like this?

– Cracking…

I was thinking such meaningless thoughts one after another, lowering my head and quietly grinding my teeth.

– Rustling…

“…….?”

Suddenly, I quietly turned my head to the side at the sound of something rustling coming from the side.

“Ah.”

At that very moment, I saw it before my eyes.

“…W-this place.”

Minamoto Himari, who had been lying face down on the floor like a corpse until then, sat up staggeringly with a dazed look on her face.

“Ha, sky…?”

Thanks to that, when I raised her head and began to focus my gaze, she, who had been staring at me blankly, started calling my name and looking around her surroundings.

“Ah…..”

And then her face turns pale.

– Grrr…

As if she had finally remembered what had happened, her body started shaking and she looked at me and opened her mouth.

“My, my will… Wasn’t my will…”

“…………”

“I-I… I didn’t mean to do this…”

Eventually, she started muttering something, but I could no longer hear her voice in my ears.

“I just followed Se-ah because she said there was a way for me to meet you again and apologize… So I followed you… “

It was only then that I realized that when a person’s emotions are pushed to their limits, they cannot see or hear anything even if their eyes and ears are fine.

“Well, from then on… Now, I remember well…”

But I feel like I shouldn’t keep myself like that, so I bite her lip to the point where blood bursts out and hold on to her senses. Her gaze slightly lowers, and then she suddenly stops talking.

“……Maru sister?”

That moment when she absentmindedly said her older sister’s name, which had eventually become cold.

– Sigh…

The reason I had been forcibly maintaining suddenly broke away, and an emotion began to burn fiercely within me.

– Turp, trudge…

“My, I… What… Did I…”

That was the feeling that I always lacked, even though I had made up my mind for quite some time.

– Shake it off…

“Hike!?”

By the time I noticed that, I had already come to the front of Himari, who looked like she was suffocating at any moment.

– Wow…

“….Sigh?”

The next moment, he was holding the nape of her neck with his hand so roughly that it stopped the blood from flowing.

– Kkukdeudeudeudeuk…

“Wow, big…”

Nevertheless, as I increased the force I was giving to her hand, Himari, who was helplessly underneath me, began to struggle in pain.

“…………”

The expression she is making instantly makes me lose my grip.

– Crunch… Crunch…

However, in less than a second, the image of her sister, who had died after being neutralized by her power, and the kidnapped Pandora, flashed past her and made her reapply the missing power.

“…Ha, sky ahhh.”

In the meantime, I began to hear Himari’s creeping voice in my ears.

“Mi….. I won’t…..”

“……..”

“I… Did it wrong…”

She stopped struggling and gradually lost focus in her eyes, whispering to me in a low voice.

“Kill me….. Give me…..”

What was it that made me make that decision at that very moment?

At that time, my reason was completely paralyzed, so I will probably never know the answer.

– Slurrr…

However, I was certain that the image of Pandora, a cold corpse with handprints that I was certain I had made, vividly flashed across her face just before she lost focus.

Of course, I have never seen such a thing in person, but I clearly remember where I experienced it.

Yes, it is a strange dream that cannot be distinguished from reality.

– Sreuk…

Anyway, after that scene passed by, my hand that was strangling Himari, who was on the verge of losing her breath, relaxed slightly for a split second.

“…No.”

That short gap soon began to change everything.

“No, senior.”

“You can’t kill her.”

Lumia appeared at a truly amazing time, behind Kang Haneul, who was strangling Himari with a cold expression in a hideout filled with the smell of blood.

“Revenge only leads to more revenge or futility… I don’t mean to say bullsh*t like that.”

“……..”

“But now you are choosing the wrong target for revenge.”

She urgently approaches Kang Ha-neul and begins to persuade him.

“The people you must seek revenge on are Isea, the 7th Juseon, and… Me.”

“…………”

“It’s Se-Ah’s plan to induce you to touch other people.”

Then, Kang Ha-neul completely relaxes her hands and quietly begins to listen to her words.

“I’m asking because you seem to have calmed down a bit now. Can you see what you look like now?”

He quietly lowers his gaze and then frowns.

– Gooooo…

“Even from your perspective, it doesn’t seem normal, right?”

It was only then that she noticed that her entire body was covered in a sticky shadow.

“The current senior is so kind and obsessed with being a villain, she has never committed even the slightest unjustified killing. That’s why she hasn’t completely degenerated into a villain until now.”

“…………”

“But now, as you know, you recognize that what you are doing is evil. That is why you are on the verge of corruption.”

Rumia, who had come right in front of him, began to quietly stretch out her arms towards him.

“But… Then what do I do with these boiling emotions?”

However, when her river Sky muttered in a trembling voice, she paused for a moment.

“…I have a good move.”

Then, Rumia carefully embraces her river Haneul with open arms and begins to whisper.

“That…What is it?”

“A way to bring a dead person back to life.”

Then, Kang Ha-neul’s eyes instantly turn round.

“Of course… There is only one chance. There is only one person who can be saved. And even those whose bodies are left behind cannot be saved. For example, Justia.”

“Then…”

“…But, if it’s your sister, I can save her.”

Holding him in her arms, Lumia continues her story with a mixed smile.

“Of course, in order to achieve that, you must not lose a single person who is important to you in the final battle.”

“……..”

“Well, death by your hands is a prerequisite, so it’s a no count.”

Then, Kang Haneul quietly turns her gaze and begins to look at Lumia.

“This was something that was included in my plan from the beginning, so I’m telling you specifically.”

“…But, how is that possible?”

“I can’t tell you that right now.”

“…………”

“But if you swear you’ll never use it on me, I might give you a little insight.”

He quietly nodded to Lumia’s low whisper.

“The method is…”

Soon, she whispered in a low voice.

“……!”

Kang Ha-neul’s eyes became round once again.

– Tsuzuzuzuzu…

The next moment, the darkness covering him slowly began to clear.

“…Ha.”

Lumia sighed in relief when she saw that, but then lowered her head and muttered.

“……Is it still a secret to the concept of death?”

.

.

.

.

.

How much time has passed?

“…….”

“Ugh… Clack, clack…”

Kang Ha-neul quietly got up from his seat and started heading towards his sister’s cold body, leaving behind Himari, who had finally been freed from her restraints and started coughing.

– Sigh…

“…The premise itself was wrong in the first place.”

Eventually, Kang Ha-neul began to move her steps outside, carefully holding her older sister in her arms.

– Beep beep… Beep beep beep…

“The very plan to prepare for the enemy’s attack was wrong.”

He stares at the glowing red dot on his smartphone map, clearly activated by Pandora, and begins to mutter coldly.

“We should have found them first and torn them to pieces.”

His voice was immersed in anger, but it was not engulfed in darkness like before.

“Yes. From now on, I will do it that way…”

“I’m sorry I’m late! The broom broke down…”

“It’s because you accelerated recklessly!”

With a clearer purpose than ever before, I just walked towards the voices of Diamond and Miracle Shine that began to be heard from afar.

“…That’s enough.”

Lumia muttered as she looked at his back with faint eyes.

– Sreung…

“By the way.”

Then, she gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand towards Himari, who was sitting blankly behind her and started pointing the knife that was lying next to her at her own neck.

“Ugh…”

“Please don’t cause any more trouble.”

Then, Lumia grabbed Himari’s hand and blocked her suicide attempt, muttering with burning eyes.

“Because I know that you are not a completely innocent person like Kang Maru.”

After she finished saying that, she staggered out of her seat and started heading towards the river sky.

“…For some reason, I haven’t liked you since a long time ago.”

He left such emotional words to Himari, who was weighed down by guilt and fear.
