Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine - Possessed As the Butler of a Defeated Heroine chapter 209

209 – Possessed as the Defeated Heroine’s Butler [Complete]

Hyunjin had a long nightmare for the first time in a long time.

It was a story from the past, before I was possessed.

How was you in real life? … ?

If I were to define it, it was a life that was both trashy and miserable.

It was such a life, gritting one’s teeth and living for today under the excuse of living for tomorrow.

Yet deep down, I thought, ‘I want to escape.’

I wanted to run away from my boring life.

So… The deviation that Hyunjin sought was creation.

For some people, an object created from imagination can become a ray of light.

‘For a brief moment, was I happy?’

Even though I thought about those words over and over again, no one gave me an answer.

The only person who can answer your story is yourself.

The alarm rang loudly in the quiet room, and Hyunjin quietly opened his eyes.

“… Ah.”

Hyunjin burst out laughing and got up from the bed.

“Okay… That can’t be possible.”

When I opened my eyes, the same scenery was always waiting for me.

A scene where a computer is placed in a small studio room measuring about 6 pyeong. It was already late evening.

Hyunjin was scared because he thought he had returned to reality. Even for a brief moment, the scenery overlapped.

The end of a life that I hoped would never end.

Yes, it will probably inevitably be today.

Hyunjin quietly looked at his watch. It was early in the morning when the graduation ceremony was scheduled to take place.

“I should prepare.”

Hyunjin thought this was the last time, so he tidied up his clothes more neatly than usual.

After I leave this room and go to the academy and have the graduation ceremony.

In the end, the choice is up to you.

No matter what choice you make, you will have to endure it because you made it.

Still, for some reason, Hyunjin didn’t feel like opening the door handle and leaving the room.

“I am… “What do I want to do?”

I don’t know.

It’s not like there were only things I didn’t regret.

Because life is not something that can be easily saved and loaded like a game.

“I guess we can’t help but move on.”

Instead of worrying and wandering alone, it would be better to think after breaking down.

What was waiting where the door was opened was Rachel.

“Mr. Hyunjin. “It’s been a while.”

“… “Rachel.”

“Yes, I’m your Rachel.”

Hyunjin and Rachel were staring at each other with a door in between.

Rachel was still smirking.

In the silence, it was Rachel who spoke first.

“There are probably a lot of things I wanted to ask and things I wanted to say. So… I chose a few. These are the things that Hyunjin would be most curious about from me.”

“… “Tell me.”

Rachel nodded her head in response to Hyunjin’s response and continued.

“First of all, I want to say thank you. I am… “Let’s say he is a writer who has come to life through stories.”

“… “What?”

Hyunjin could not believe his ears

“It would be said that Kentaro Murasame was me, Rachel.”

Rachel continued her speech despite Hyunjin’s surprised expression.

“Does that mean you think that a single artist can force people into the world of his work?”

“You may not understand, but… There is power in stories. A power that attracts many people. “Isn’t that the case with so-called myths and narratives?”

Rachel continues her words her calmly.

It certainly might be so. And, more than anything, doesn’t she feel it to her core?

She said she was possessed by the world in the story.

“No one loved stories as much as you. Being a writer is tiring. I am swayed by my readers, to the point where I cannot survive if I don’t do so.”

Hyunjin inadvertently chuckled at Rachel’s words, laughed, and spoke mockingly.

“It’s natural. Because that’s what selling something to others is all about. In order to sell your story, you have to make up a story that the public likes.”

“Then why were you so angry?”

“That… !”

She couldn’t answer Rachel’s words directly.

He was clearly angry. Because it’s not the ending you wanted?

No, Hyunjin didn’t feel that way.

To be precise, it was because she had moved to Amelia.

The feeling of not being chosen by the person he liked was enough to make him angry.

This was because her parents fought over her and her past of not being chosen by people she liked was similar to Amelia’s her.

“In the end, you probably took that action because you weren’t convinced either. That’s why I invited you into the world of the story.”

“… Did you do that?”

“Yes. Purely, I was just looking forward to what you would choose… “He did a lot of things that exceeded expectations.”

What Rachel was probably talking about was not the act of choosing someone, but rather accepting everything.

‘… It certainly was.’

I didn’t want to pick someone or anything. I didn’t want to make them heroines who were defeated because they weren’t chosen.

“And… The reason I brought you here is because I thought only you could bring the story to an end. It was a story that no one could tell. Because you liked all the heroines.”

“… “It was like that.”

Hyunjin thought about the inside of his room

Even in such a small room, I tried my best to collect character goods and attended all events.

Even birthdays.

“Do you remember?”

Rachel asked Hyunjin vaguely.

“What… Are you talking?”

“The things I have done so far.”

I didn’t remember much about what I had done.

She just wanted to escape reality.

“Think about the things you’ve made, even if your skills are crude.”

Rachel said carefully.

Ah, yes.

She made some really ugly videos, created characters in a crude way, and even saved her birthday for them.

Rather than complaining to the author, she loved the characters as much as the author did.

Various thoughts came rushing in like gentle waves.

Normal people would have scolded him for overindulging, but Hyunjin was so exhausted.

It didn’t take long for me to realize that someone’s story could be healing for me.

It was sincere.

That’s why I wanted Amelia to be happy.

Now, I wonder why Rachel possessed me in this world…

I felt like I knew a little bit.

“You’re such a damn grateful writer…”

“Now, let’s go see the ending. I don’t know what the ending you hoped for will be, but I will support you. Now out of sight… “

Rachel, who was about to say goodbye to Hyunjin and go back, was grabbed by her wrist.

To Hyunjin.

“And you?”

“I… “You mean?”

“Is it okay if I just go back like this? Without any regrets? “Is it okay to just treat her as a sub-heroine who hangs around?”

“Well, I am.”

Rachel said, shaking off her wrist.

“I am.”

Rachel said with a gentle smile towards Hyunjin.

It didn’t sound like it was announcing the end of everything or starting over.

Just calmly, so that the lingering feeling remains.

A choice you won’t regret――

That was the happiness Rachel thought of.

“Seriously, it’s okay. Because watching over you was my job as a writer. So, I mean. The child I created, Amelia… Please take care of me.”

Rachel shook off her hold on her wrist and began to slowly fade away.

Only after Rachel disappeared so completely did Hyunjin chuckle.

“I’m sure I’ll take care of it.”

I will continue to live in this world.

Well then, let’s go.

***

Today, Hyunjin wanted to walk a little.

She walked down the street, neatly dressed in her school uniform, recalling the first time she came here.

Because we started early in the morning, it definitely took a long time to walk.

Dawn began to break, and petals slowly fluttered and fell from the cherry trees.

After the cold winter, warm spring has arrived again.

“It’s cool.”

Hyunjin muttered to himself as the wind blew gently.

I did what I could. If it’s something you can do.

Hyunjin quietly looked up at the sky among the fluttering flower petals.

‘Let me think about it for a moment.’

From noble mtl dot net

Amelia… From beginning to end, she was the best heroine to me.

She was still girlish and self-centered, but… Still, it didn’t change.

I always looked at her in her her her her her her her her her her her her to shake off her her her her depressed mood her her her her.

When I think back on the efforts she made to change herself, I still think that she is lovely.

Ohana… Yes, she was definitely a fresh-faced child who gave off the feeling of being a childhood friend of hers.

I liked the fact that she it seemed like an adult or something like that. She soothed my tired heart. She was very considerate.

She clearly had her own thoughts on becoming an idol.

Tsubasa… She always pretended to be strong, but in reality, she had a softer heart than anyone else.

Because she had to pretend to be strong. To catch up with someone I admire.

She locked herself away because she had to.

As for Kanade… She had always been a quiet and stubborn child. There were times when she showed her unconventional side.

Even though she was a genius, she would have wanted to be understood. She wanted to show herself to others.

I’m sure there were times like that too. I worked hard to be understood by someone.

Ayako… As a member of a foster family, she clearly hasn’t seen much of the world.

In the future, I will have various experiences and become an adult like that.

Hotaru… She was a child who lived as a martial artist.

What kind of long words do I need? She will still work hard as she has been doing, and she will try to discipline herself and pursue herself.

He was the kind of person you didn’t need to worry about.

Aisha… She was a child who did not appear in the original work.

I was skeptical because she appeared suddenly, but in the end, Aisha was also an unusual child.

Indeed, how is this guy going to grow up? She felt like she wanted to watch from the side all the time.

Lastly, Taiga… She was Ryunosuke’s younger sister.

It was different from the personality I knew, but I wondered if we could still get along well for a short period of time.

At least I thought I could.

She and Ryunosuke seemed like a normal sibling relationship, but she was surprisingly kind to others… She was a girl who was very interested in Korea.

The memories I made with everyone cannot be counted in numbers.

If there’s just something unfortunate, tell me more. Could it be that I wasn’t able to build more pleasant memories?

Sad. There must have been a lot of things that could have been done.

Human beings are always the same. When I look back with regret and disappointment, I wonder what I missed… About the habit of thinking.

“But we will still move forward.”

Many things happened with the heroines.

Something that was fun… Things that were difficult…

It’s not that I’ve ever thought it was a little disappointing.

A year passed without waiting for me.

Among the cherry blossoms with no one around, Hyunjin laughed.

There was no girl who was not lovable.

“Was it a long dream?”

Hyunjin muttered to himself.

When she came to her senses, she found herself on the campus of Hoshizora Academy.

“Really, how long do you plan on making me wait?”

Someone suddenly attacked me from behind.

It was such a sudden rush that my body stumbled for a moment.

“I waited, Hyunjin!”

At that voice, I turned my stumbling body back and laughed.

Yes, what I just experienced was not a dream.

I will continue to walk with them in the future.

As a character named Hyunjin.
