I’m a Villainess but So Popular

Episode 125

It was a really unpleasant sensation.

A sticky and cold object seemed to crawl over my body.

I was scared when it became so dark that I couldn’t see an inch ahead.

Forgetting that I was chained up, I lit a flame.

The intense pain that soon caught my mind was all over my body.

The blazing blue flame went out in an instant.

I could see the flame as soon as it went down.

A lot of hands that stretch out towards the left eye.

‘It’s the same as it was……..’

I forgot what to do for a while at the creepy sight.

A stiff hand with cold air grabbed my chin.

I trembled and struggled, but his cold hands didn’t move.

The unpleasant hands that were fumbling about their faces began to move toward the left eye.

The thought of dying passed by.

I closed my eyes tightly, but a hand opened my eyelids and forced me to open them.

Just then, I remembered the face of Cassius who was asleep.

‘If you call me when something difficult happens like today, I will help you as much as I want.’

And the Dragon Lady’s whispering.

‘This is not the time to be like this……!’

I shook the hands that covered my face and opened my mouth.

“Help me.”

I felt the heat in my left eye as if she had responded to my wish.

As soon as I gave off my mana, more hands stretched out toward the eyelids.

“Let the mana absorbed by these monsters return to its original owner.”

At that very moment, the hands that were moving toward the left eyelid stopped moving as if they were blocked by something.

And suddenly, my left eye became burning hot.

In that short time, the tremendous heat closed my eyes.

It was hard to open my eyes to the heat that was incomparable to before I said my wish.

“Return the mana absorbed by these monsters to its original location and its original owner.”

Suddenly, blue flames rose from both hands.

Nor did I use flame magic.

The heat from the eyes was now wrapped around the body.

My whole body seemed to be blazing.

The hands faltered and began to back off.

The body of the monsters, which was covering the lower half of the body, also stumbled and escaped.

“Ahhhhh!”

I twisted my chained body in a heat that I had never felt in my life.

I felt like a hot flame swallowed my body.

It was such a fever that it was distracting.

Perhaps Yerine, who couldn’t stand her mana when she was young, felt like this.

Black hands were seen beyond the shaky field of vision.

Was it because death was before my eyes?

The faces of Cassius, Eugene, Erica, Rachel, Astra, and Ray passed by like a lantern.

“…….please return it.”

If I hadn’t thought of their faces, I wouldn’t have said the last word.

Flames burning with a darker blue colour overflowed in front of my eyes.

I didn’t struggle while watching the fireworks swallow my body.

I felt like my whole body was burning up.

Blood was boiling and blood vessels seemed to expand.

Nevertheless, I felt comfortable for some reason.

‘………..am I really going to die now?’

The chair, which could not overcome the fire, collapsed, and I fell helplessly on the stone ground.

I had a hunch that this was my last.

‘I can’t see them after all.’

I thought it was a relief that I memorized everyone’s faces well just before I left.

The monsters that blocked the view were seen splitting in half.

Fragments of monsters scattered over the blazing flames fell apart.

“What is this! Argh!”

I heard a terrible scream.

“Yerine Spade! What the hell did you do?”

Iker’s voice was unmistakable.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”

The scream, which was ringing sharply as if to rip off the eardrum, soon calmed down, and something hit the floor.

‘Success………’

I felt like my body was going to explode.

Hot blood flowed out of the left eye.

‘It hurts.’

My voice was too hoarse to scream.

My whole body is too damaged to struggle.

I knew it intuitively.

That I won’t survive.

Tears flowed from the left eye, where blood flowed.

The blood and tears mixed into the mouth made the tongue taste salty.

‘No, I just have to win.’

But I wanted to think that I was okay.

‘It’s okay. Everyone can live now.’

I wasn’t included in ‘everyone’.

Things that have happened have passed by like a flashlight.

Succession appointment ceremony, tea party with everyone, ball, picnic in the garden.

Everything is.

It’s only been about a year, but my new life here has become such a precious memory for me.

Tears flowed out of the fact that I could never go through such a thing again.

‘I don’t want to die either.….’

I hypnotized myself that I could survive.

Because I’m not ready to die yet.

‘I miss you.’

People’s greed was endless.

However, I thought I could be this greedy just before I finished my second life.

I wanted to see everyone’s faces.

I closed my eyes weakly.

I didn’t even have the strength to keep my eyes open.

The fire that started in my eyes will soon burn my whole body and soul.

‘I wanted to say hi to them.’

Feeling blood and tears rolling down my cheeks, I prayed earnestly inside.

If death is similar to sleeping, let the dream of them coming out.

Soon the consciousness sank into the abyss and no pain was felt.

***

Nothing moved in the room where the heavy silence fell.

The girl with purple hair lying dead on the cold stone floor.

At first glance, she looked like she was just sleeping, but dark red blood flowed from her left eye covered by purple hair.

Her breathing was so weak that she couldn’t hear well in the silence.

Anyone who saw her would know that her life would soon be cut off.

In a desolate room, the only living thing was her, who was about to die.

There was no sign of a human being except for the scorched ownerless clothes lying a few steps away from her.

As her breathing gradually faded, five men and women appeared in the air.

“Hold on to them. Don’t let any of them run away.”

Eugene, who clucked up his voice, said, looking sideways at the chain-bound Rayl.

“But where exactly are we?”

Erica looked around and asked.

Soon after, she found Yerine lying motionless in the back.

“Ye, Yerine!”

Everyone looked back at Erica’s voice calling Yerine’s name.

The first thing that moved was Cassius.

He’s a man who’s fallen faster than anyone else.

He ran toward her.

“Ye, Yerine…….”

His voice calling the name trembled like crazy.

Yerine, who was always confident and shining brightly, was lying down in the corner.

As she breathed out a faint breath that seemed to break on the cold stone floor, she looked as if she would break if touched.

“What can I do…….”

Tears flowed nonstop from the golden eyes that resembled the sun.

Cassius, who held Yerine lying on the floor in his arms, used healing magic desperately.

A gold ball of light flowed out of his body and surrounded Yerine, but did not enter her body.

“Breathing, please breathing……….”

Eugene, who put his finger on Yerine’s nose, murmured blankly.

But everyone knew.

She’ll be out of breath soon.

Her fine face was ruined by the blood streaming out.

The skin of the limbs was not as damaged as if it had been severely burned.

Her eyes were completely broken, and her healing ability seemed to have halved.

Her breathing was so weak and open.

“Why….”

Eventually, the gold ball of light returned to Cassius again this time.

Grimly.

“Yerine, I’m here. Please open your eyes…….”

But the answer didn’t come back.

When Cassius, who fell asleep after Yerine’s magic, opened his eyes, the Dragon Lady said.

If she doesn’t keep her eyes open when she meets Yerine again, she has to give up.

“You can’t leave first. You promised to come back to me.”

Cassius’s hand, who hugged Yerine, was strengthened.

“You liar…….”

For Cassius, Yerine was the only one who thought she wanted to protect in a life full of meaningless things.

His heart was broken by the thought of not being able to keep it this time and the thought of letting her carry all the burdens by herself.

He rather thought that he wanted to pluck his own heart.

If she could live, if Yerine could live, he wanted to do that.

“Please open your eyes. It’s my fault………”

‘There’s something I haven’t told you yet. I was going to tell you when I became a person who suits you.’

Those words lingered in his heart.

“……hey.”

His voice sounded as if he had tears in his eyes.

When Cassius looked up, what he saw in front of him was Eugene, who had a face full of tears.

“There’s no such thing as this. You’re so cheap. You said you’d come back alive.”

His hands shook with fists.

“Please don’t die…….”

It was Erica who burst into tears at his words.

Unable to overcome her emotions, she held Yerine’s hand, which was ruined by ash and dry blood.

“Yerine, ugh, you promised me. Next vacation, we decided to have more fun. You said you had a plan!”

Everyone was crying.

Everyone was telling Yerine to open her eyes.

But even if she was shaken or yelled at, she wouldn’t open her eyes.

Eventually, when all the efforts came to nothing, Cassius wept and swept her face away with a big hand.

“I’m sorry…….”

He felt sorry for Yerine, who had endured the burning pain of her body for him.

Blood and ashes that have dried up and stick together on her ghost-like face

His heart ached when he saw her bangs messed up because of the blood.

‘Why did you have to endure everything by yourself?’

The touch of patting the white face was as careful and sentimental as if he was groping the remains of someone he could no longer meet.

Long fingers swept over the bangs covering the left eye.

He wanted to see the red eyes hiding behind it like crazy.

It was just then.
