I Possessed the Villain in the Lily Novel - I Possessed the Villain in the Lily Novel chapter 156

156 – Necrosis (7)

Lilia clicked her tongue at the sight she saw as soon as she woke up after a short sleep.

“How are you… What are you guys doing?”

Eva was sleeping soundly on Stella’s lap. She brushed Eva’s hair and smiled like a mother who loves her child’s sleep, and next to her was Innis sleeping. Innis’s hand was holding Eva’s right hand tightly.

“What are you doing, don’t you know when you see it?”

Stellar, who answered skillfully, lightly touched Iva’s lips proudly.

“I’m putting you to sleep.”

“So that’s why you…”

As she stopped speaking, Lilia remembered a scene from her past. She made eye contact with Stella, and Ivar, who was gesturing her something.

“Aha… I guess I passed on something at that time? I guess. Our Eva is about to die of sleepiness, and she obediently wanted to yield her sleep.”

I understand, but I don’t understand.

She has an owner who has been in charge of sleeping here openly from the beginning, but is she going away alone with her childhood friend?

So what will I become after supporting me both physically and mentally?

I was so dumbfounded that I burst into flames.

She picked up the charred remains and put them in her eyes, glaring at her Eva. Her resentment, which had troubled her heart for days and nights, flared up again.

“That bastard is really…”

“Don’t be too angry. It’s a pretty face, but it’s going to be ruined.”

“I’ll use my face however I want, what does it matter to you. And I’m pretty even when I’m angry.”

“Ha ha ha, that’s very true.”

Stella smiled leisurely and pet Iva like she would pet her cat. Without knowing the owner’s feelings at all, she saw Eva sleeping with a peaceful expression on her face, and her desolation welled up.

However, she became disillusioned with herself, feeling not only her emptiness but also her satisfaction.

“You must have had a great night? Everyone else is sleeping, but you guys…”

When I was about to be sarcastic because my anger wasn’t fully resolved, Eva got up.

“… Ha.”

Her sleep was short compared to the amount of time she hadn’t slept, so dark circles were still thick around her eyes.

“aaagh…!”

Eva squeezed her hair and let out a moan of pain. As the cold air gathered below her, so did her voice. She was low and cold. It was frightening.

Lilia and Stella, startled by the sudden appeal, looked at him curiously. Innis too, awakened by a voice from close range, opened his eyes. It was a nap, so it was easily awoken by the slightest stimulation.

“Ah… f*ck.”

Not paying attention to those around her, Eva spat out her curse words. It wasn’t unusual since I’ve always had bad language habits.

Unlike usual, there was a lot of emotion in the swear words. It was not a swear word used as a simple exclamation or bravado, but literally a swear word for insult. It was used as a natural function of swearing.

“f*ck really…”

He looked around in confusion. When he realized that what he saw was not a forest of buildings, but the middle of an unknown mountain, he frowned in displeasure.

Even the trivial things were enough to irritate my nerves now.

Unlike the busy mind, the body calmly began to supply mana to the stigma.

It was an action I was used to, like breathing or blinking.

The brand engraved with the curse of inability to regenerate worked normally today.

That also made me uncomfortable.

A magic that only I can use, and the closest magic to me.

There was a sense of pride that came from that, but there was no time to feel it now.

It was annoying.

If you look at the reason why you were able to use this magic, it was because of the inferiority complex created by being persecuted.

No, magic itself is closely related to the history of persecution.

The reason why magic was born in the previous world was because of the confrontation between the demon king and the hero.

A huge amount of demons can be produced from the corpses of demons, and even demons can be created. What about the demon king?

Innumerable demons from the demon king’s corpse and the warrior’s corpse would have covered the world.

A society that couldn’t cope with that cataclysm must have fallen into chaos. Even so, the battle between the two would have destroyed cities around the world as if they had been hit by a massive natural disaster. There was no way it could be dealt with. The economy would have collapsed, the individual would have collapsed, and society would have collapsed.

Those who survived the apocalypse set up society again. A society where only you can eat well and buy well. There is no central authority to control individuals, and even if there were, they were all corrupt.

A time when indulgence more than freedom was achieved. An era in which there was no hesitation in freely trampling on the freedom of others. A society where those who talked about ethics or culture were treated as fools.

The world received and drank the dregs from the body of the demon king and gradually lost its innate and natural human rights.

The demon king and the hero changed the world, but it was the individual. Individuals who gained magic forgot their human rights in return.

The Demon King and the Hero.

That was the reason I was born as a slave. A time when slavery was not particularly special. They were the trigger that created that terrible era.

It’s all because of those b*tches. Those years couldn’t handle it properly…

“Such an initiation. It’s like sh*t…”

The head was complicated, but the body was still calm.

“Hey… Are you okay?”

“Did you have a bad dream? What’s wrong?”

The cold body temperature awakened what to do, and quickly closed the tear glands. To stop lamenting over one’s situation, so that one’s actions will not be delayed in gloom.

Iva rubbed her face a few times, then opened her mouth.

“Let’s go get rid of the elves.”

The lifeless eyes woke me up in the morning.

**

Lilia’s voice boomed.

“Did it turn?!”

Of course, it’s back. Few people are sane after hearing such a thing. The line between anger and madness is close. Now my heart beats fast and my blood vessels are prominent. The focus of the eyes is blurred and the emotions are too blatant.

However, it is the handshake that meekly admits madness here. I shook my head slowly.

“No, I’m cold.”

I want to do exactly that. A sober judgment is always helpful. The problem is that the expression is quite far from me.

“How did a cold-hearted guy come to that conclusion!”

The voice was so roaring that one after another those who had been sleeping like honey, soaked in fatigue, stood up.

“Huh…?”

“uuu…”

Layla and the Prophet woke up, and Wiz or Minerva frowned. It seems like it’s only a matter of time before these two wake up now.

“Iva, I agree with you on this. What a bad nightmare it was. Was it like a Christmas nightmare?”

Stella made a silly joke, but she didn’t laugh.

“Oh, that’s right, Iba. If I meet the elves now, I’m sure it will take a lot of damage. I’m just jumping into a pit of fire!”

Innis warned me, but I ignored it.

“Wait a minute Elpranio…? Senpai. What are you talking about?”

“This guy is about to start an all-out war with the elves.”

“Sounds crazy!!! Sounds so crazy!!! I’m losing my sleep!”

Layla’s expression hardened, and the Prophet roared with excitement.

“Are you crazy?! No, you’re crazy! You ran away and you’re going to fight again? Why do you like playing with your life so much?! Do you have such a s*xual preference?!”

“No.”

“Why did Stella answer…?”

The noise made the other two people who were sleeping barely open their eyes.

“Ugh… What is…”

“I’m sorry Layla, please don’t be angry… Hey~ I woke up~! Oh my, wasn’t that the lab?”

I glanced at those who were still wandering between reality and dreams, and then came up with an excuse I had in mind.

“It was something I had to do anyway.”

“I’ve said that before, and again… Evil!”

Lillia put the rampaging Prophet behind her for a moment, then nodded. It meant to spit it out.

“The most urgent thing right now is to overcome the ordeal. When I start to act again, rumors that the demon king candidate has resurrected will continue to spread, and the sensitive Witch Association and Holy Knights will not miss this.”

This is one of the differences between the Devil’s Palace and the Order of the Holy Knights. Unlike the Magician, who can move after reporting, the Holy Knights can move at their own discretion. Sometimes they waste time by pointing out mistakes, but most of them ring the bell of success with sharp senses.

Captain, it was clear that she would come after me, paying attention to even the slightest rumors.

“So it’s urgent to clear up the misunderstanding by getting your body back to normal as soon as possible.”

Wiz, who hadn’t woken up yet, rubbed her eyes and looked this way. Minerva turned her gaze in this direction, with a mysterious smile of her own.

“My ordeal right now is ‘survive’. It probably refers to a death demon or an elf. Assuming that the influence of the death demon has weakened, most likely the target is an elf. The elves who lost the World Tree won’t give up the chase, and running away would only waste time.”

I feel much better than the way I treated him as a madman at first. Unfortunately, looking at him like a madman was the right thing to do.

It’s true that I’m slightly turned around now. Even the word “Slightly” Might not be appropriate.

A cold rage covered her madness and painted her face black as ash.

“So, let’s face the elves head-on. It’s the quickest way to get things right.”

There was silence in the audience for a while. Wiz was expressionless, and Lyla trembled as if she were still afraid of the elves.

“Is that all?”

Lilia asked.

“What?”

“Really, that’s all the reason.”

It was a doubt.

“Uh.”

I answered that.

It was a lie.

Love and trust are different.

I love them, but I don’t fully trust them.

After all, each person is different, so it is impossible to fully understand others.

You can get to know people with love, but you cannot become the same as people themselves.

I know them, but I don’t understand them. And vice versa.

You can know each other’s faces, personalities, hobbies, likes and dislikes, but you can’t understand each other.

It’s not even a pity. That’s what it is.

All of them are better than me, but how do I know if this resentment will be treated as ‘something like that’?

Of course most of them aren’t like that. But just in case. No, I don’t want someone to judge my current feelings in the first place.

This resentment is only mine and only I can understand. Don’t lose it to anyone Don’t let others judge you.

Besides, if I were to be honest, would anything change?

When Lilia says that she is only a character in her novel, she may be confused on the contrary. As Stella realizes her truth, she may be disgusted with her own role as a champion candidate.

In the end, everyone has a line.

Below that line, we must be considerate and respectful, and allow individuals to fully exist as individuals.

There are truths you want to keep to yourself, and there are truths you are better off not knowing.

“Even if all of you are against it, my thoughts will not be broken.”

I slowly moved my gaze from Lillia past Innis to Lila.

“I respect the choices of all of you. Feel free to judge.”

“What are the chasers doing now!”

“I’m sorry, I’m not familiar with the terrain outside the forest…”

“Shut up! Don’t make excuses!”

The young elf bowed his head to the wrinkled elf and closed his eyes tightly.

“The World Tree was burned! Our mother…!! But she only makes excuses! Aren’t you ashamed?!”

Given the bizarre locomotion of the enemy, it didn’t make sense to chase them after only one day. However, all the elves felt ashamed of this.

It is none other than the death of the world tree.

I don’t mind catching them right now and torturing them, but I haven’t seen their faces yet.

‘Damn it…’

I bit my lip in resentment. His eyes seemed to be dripping with anger.

At that moment, a flash of light fell in the dark night sky.

Kwaaang!!

The noise that shook their ears was as huge as the light, and there were not a few people who were momentarily staggered by the vibration.

“I…”

It was an unbelievable situation. It was something not everyone expected.

“It’s an enemy attack!!!”

The sinners who murdered Mother World Tree have returned to their feet!
