I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel - Chapter 106
106 – What Must Be Killed
My childhood memories are a bit ambiguous.
There is no need to remember.
Maybe my not-so-grown heart made that decision.
Still, if there are memories that come to mind.
It must be when I am with my little sister.
“Is school okay these days? Aren’t there any bullying kids?”
“Hey, what kind of lunatic is bothering me? I’m trying to find… Oh!”
“I can’t use such mean words. Isn’t King Sejong sad?”
“Huh…Your sister is too strict.”
Even if I say it like that, I will never use it again.
Surprisingly, she is a kind younger sister who follows her sister well.
Well, I don’t know if she’s going to be like that even when she’s not looking.
“Answer?”
When I ask with my eyes narrowed, the answer comes back saying that I know.
The cat he had bought with him rubbed his face against his stomach as if he were acting cute.
“Hehe! It’s okay to get scolded every day, so I want to stay together like this forever.”
“……That’s right.”
My parents divorced.
The reason for the divorce is surprisingly not a big deal.
The trivial bumps and quarrels that arise from living together.
Those things kept piling up, and before I knew it, I was stamping the divorce stamp.
They are both from good families.
It may not be such a big deal in today’s world.
Actually, after a few years, they get back together.
But because of that, Hyena and Mina had to stay apart.
The place where I live is also far away, so we can only meet occasionally.
“You have to go today?”
“Yes, because I have time for the bus.”
“Haa… I came all the way to Busan. It’s too bad that I can’t even swim.”
Mina’s face looked genuinely sullen.
It’s a pity that Hyena is the same.
She can’t help but go back.
As her eldest daughter, Hyena also understood her parents’ position.
It would have been best for them to have their only two children, one at a time.
“Can’t we lie to a friend and stay for one more day?”
“Umm, I don’t have friends like that yet. Her mother is polar, too.”
Unfortunately, Hyena is not the type to approach others first.
Moreover, rumors that Hye-na’s parents divorced had already spread in the school she transferred to.
Territoriality and teasing common among children.
But that also hurts me a lot.
Because of that, Hyena had no friends.
At most, she was like a boy in her class who fought for her.
“Hmm? Do you have suspicious eyes? Haven’t you ever had a boyfriend?”
“What? What what It can’t be!”
Why is that child’s face suddenly coming to mind?
Hyena involuntarily shook her head as her face turned red.
Mina, who looked suspiciously at her older sister, shrugged her shoulders lightly, not fitting her age.
“Hmm, well, it doesn’t matter. If you ever find a man, you should show it to me right away. You have to judge who you are.”
“Judgement?”
“Of course not! It has to be a man who is great enough to entrust her older sister. The annual salary is at least 100 million, the person who is not intimidated in front of gangsters and who does not make her sister cry will be allowed.”
“Haha… ….”
When did her little sister become so mature?
I wonder if my parents’ divorce had a significant impact?
His father was always busy and had no time to pay attention to his daughters.
Of course you have to take care of it, but not as much as when your family is together.
She feels a bit sad that her sister seems to have gone somewhere without her knowledge.
“Huh… I want to stay together. It would be nice if we could live alone, regardless of our parents.”
“Wouldn’t it be possible to do it later when you grow up?”
“Really?”
I was just saying this to comfort you.
Unexpectedly, Mina’s eyes sparkled.
“Uh, hmm. Huh. When we grow up, we will be able to live alone.”
“Hehe, I see. I hope you grow up soon!”
“Should I get a house first?”
“I will prepare the house! Unni, just come!”
“What? Ahahahaha!”
When she saw Mina pounding on her chest as if to trust me, Hyena burst into laughter without realizing it.
Mina actually had a more serious face than ever.
The happy times passed quickly.
“I need to go soon.”
“Ugh! Has the time already been like this? For a moment!”
Her sister said so and rummaged through her bag.
What I took out was a large conch shell.
“What is that?”
“Ehehe! I’ve seen it somewhere, but the conch shell contains the sound of the sea. You don’t hear it where her sister lives.”
Are you talking about the sound of the waves?
Certainly, there is no sea where I live, so there is nothing to hear about it.
“And in the conch shell I give you, there are fish and seagulls. Oh, and also… There’s a turtle laughing!”
“Whoops! Really?”
“……Well, in reality, people just mistake the resonance phenomenon inside the conch shell for the sound of waves.”
“…….Why does this sensibility come out?”
Mina handed over a conch shell with her bright smile.
“If you ever get lonely there, you can think of me while watching this! And later, let’s live here for real!”
“Is that so? I hope that sometime.”
Although she still had the promise she made in childhood. She
She sure she would be, she believed, she had no doubt.
Because you are my younger sister who is more precious than anything else in this world.
Even if it doesn’t work now.
Someday, surely.
****
“Huh…Uhhhhh…!”
Tears flowed non-stop.
Hye-na hugged the fallen Mina.
As Mina lay on her sister’s lap, blood continued to flow from Mina’s body.
Her dazed eyes looked at Hye-na.
“…Don’t cry, sister.”
“I’m sorry, Mina. I’m sorry sister My sister…I…Uhhhhh!”
Mina’s weakly stretched out hand wiped away Hyena’s tears.
Even though she must have stabbed herself.
I could still feel the boundless love in her touch and in her gaze.
“… ….”
I couldn’t say anything while watching it from the side.
Even if the process is crooked.
Even if she had no choice but to stop her.
Her feelings for her sister must have been genuine.
Is there any other way?
I don’t know.
If we were stronger, it might have been.
If he was able to subdue Mina unscathed, she might have somehow persuaded him.
But we didn’t have the strength to do that.
To be honest, even reaching Mina was a miracle.
I can only think that the author sent me there for the end of the story.
Of course, this is also what I hoped for.
At least I couldn’t choose to lose on the spot or run away.
That’s why we didn’t choose any means or methods.
Hye-na had no choice but to kill Mina.
That’s the best and the worst.
Everyone at this place knew.
“No… I don’t want to part like this…….”
A hot tear fell down Mina’s pale cheek.
A drop.
A drop.
A drop.
Tears dripping non-stop wet my cheeks.
Mina saw that and smiled.
“……Still, it’s good. It’s not that her sister hates me.”
“You idiot. Of course.”
Hye-na answered with a sobbing yet trembling voice.
With her mouth forced into a smile.
“You are the little brother I love the most in the world.”
Mina laughed.
She is about to die at the hands of her beloved sister.
As if that was enough.
With a face that doesn’t know whether it’s happy or sad.
“…….Jihoon oppa.”
She turned her head towards me.
“Her sister… instead of me… No, please keep my share.
“Okay.”
“If it ever rings… I will curse you even in death.”
“Don’t worry.”
“Take care of my sister.”
“……Yes.”
From noble mtl dot com
As if it was only then that I felt relieved.
Mina’s arms drooped.
“……Is it Mina?”
Hye-na called, but she did not respond.
She doesn’t move a single finger.
“No… no…… !”
On the contrary, her Hyena arm trembled.
“No, Mina! Don’t go! Do not die! Please! Aaaaa! Mina! Please! Aaaaang! No! I hate it! Don’t leave me! Please! Ah ah ah ah ah!”
Cries and screams echoed together.
Hyena let go of her throat and cried out.
“I promised! Let’s live together! You promised to live happily together when you grow up later!”
I felt the sadness that would cut out her breasts.
Perhaps it would be arrogant to even guess that feeling.
What Hye-na hoped for was probably nothing.
She did not want great honor or wealth.
She wants to be with her beloved sister.
She could only hope for that.
“Aaaaa!”
As a result, Hyena was crying.
It was an expected and accepted result.
There was no way she would be okay with that.
Because no one would have wanted an ending like this in the first place.
[Has it already ended?]
The black knight approached before he knew it.
She reflexively tried to pick up the baseball bat and then gave up.
Because he didn’t feel the will to fight at all.
She thought for a moment that Yuri had lost.
Fortunately, that didn’t seem to be the case.
“Wait, Lancelot! Are you going to make the situation to this point and run away in the middle!”
[Don’t get me wrong. The decision has already been made. It is your victory.]
He looked at the embracing sisters with a look of sadness.
[He is not without conscience enough to shout victory without being able to protect his lord twice.]
“…… Why did you hold Mina and her hand? There would have been no benefit to you from doing so.”
[Huh, benefit.]
He swung and threw an arondite in front of me.
His body was disappearing in a blur.
Somehow, I thought there was an overly strong boss monster.
Perhaps he was also maintaining his body with the power of Mina and the evil spirit.
[I betrayed the king, cut down my comrades, and ran away. I didn’t even have the right to face the end. A woman who longed to see her sister gave her next life to a monster who wandered around the world and was killed just for the sake of a quest. She had enough reasons to sacrifice her sword. That’s all.]
With those words, Lancelot also disappeared.
As if in a world without Mina, there are no more lingering feelings.
He was a selfish guy until the end.
Perhaps Lancelot had expected this ending from the beginning.
So he deliberately undermined the odds and warned me to leave.
That would have been the only way to protect his lord.
Even if I realize it now, it doesn’t make any sense.
[You have cleared the main quest!]
[Rewards are given in turn according to contribution!]
The quest completion message came up, but no one was happy.
Only Hyena hugged Mina and cried endlessly.
[‘God’s right seat’ is silent.]
[The ‘Maknae of the Fire’ gently closes her eyes.]
[The ‘half-dead goddess’ bites her lip and turns her head away.]
[‘Dream of the night like a dream’ sheds tears.]
After Mina died and the quest ended, a belated message from the gods came to mind.
It seems that the veil that prevented the intervention of the gods has also disappeared.
Amid the sound, I raised my head.
The basement’s rugged ceiling.
But I felt something different.
“There you are.”
The existence of the evil god who made all these things in the sky and was enjoying this spectacle.
Along with that, something hot rose from his chest.
I realize belatedly that the identity of that emotion is anger.
I never thought that such intense emotions would bloom after I had ‘Metafiction’.
The feeling of being someone other than myself.
I remember the first time I realized that this place was a novel.
The feeling now is the same as then.
No change in expression, just cold.
Cut this feeling like a sharp sword.
For the first time in my life, I made up my own life.
I did not hide it, but exposed it.
Suddenly, a message popped up in front of me again.
Clearer than those sent by other deities.
[I will kill you someday.]
Unbeknownst to me, ridicule flows out.
He held a baseball bat in his right hand.
“Yes, keep looking down like that.”
Stronger than when killing the monsters that stood in Mina’s way.
“Because I’ll break that head someday.”
What I have to kill in this novel.
I felt like I had finally found it.
