ââ¦Lisa, if you hug me too muchâ¦â
?
My lungs were cramped in Lisaâs arms, yet breathing suddenly became easier.
Come to think of it, the warmth that had been in contact with me had also disappeared.
Cold.
Sharp, and.
â¦Damp?
âRun away.â
ââ¦?â
Then, out of nowhere, a warning sounded.
Sensing something strange, I opened my closed eyes.
As the dark vision was removed, shadows fell from the sunlight.
I could feel the heavy breathing rising and falling on top of me.
âBillishia. Please run away.â
At that time.
At some point, Sian, who climbed into my arms, whispered in my ear.
My eyes widened slightly at the anxious voice.
This place wasnât in Lisaâs arms.
The cold and wet was the dew and dirt on the field where I was lying, and the sharp was the grass poking my cheeks.
There was even a strange rustling sound coming from above.
It was then.
âHey! If your brother beats you, you should have moved quickly thinking that you were wrong, shouldnât you?â
ââ¦I will make him unable to see you, so,â
âHurry up and bring her! Damned Vallois put a shield on the castle so we couldnât teleport to a distant place, I told you? If we donât get out of here within 5 minutes, weâll be caughtâ¦â
âDonât listen to that person. Billie. Just roll over and run away. After that, I can stop it.â
Sian covered the harsh voice behind us and whispered precisely.
However.
Drop, drop.
I lowered my gaze at the unfamiliar sensation that fell from my hand.
Blood was dripping from his ribs, as if he had been attacked by someone.
âNow isnât the time to worry about me.â
A strong voice pierced my ears.
âRoll your body to the right and run away. Please.â
Sian looked as if it wouldnât be strange even if he collapsed.
Did the area that was injured last time get injured again?
Although he crumpled his face in pain, he never let go of my arms that had imprisoned him.
I was well aware of this shitty situation.
âKidnap.â
The blood dried up all over his body.
âItâs something that wasnât in the original story, but at what point did I provoke someone?â
I was quickly retracing the past.
I couldnât be desperate, so I met with black eyes that looked dangerous.
He felt like a candle in danger of dying out.
Since I returned, the story could have changed and a situation that didnât exist in the original story could unfold.
But in the Vallois Castle?
I was even kidnapped in Lisaâs arms?
âI didnât provoke anyone who could become my enemy.â
Cold sweat ran down my neck and chills ran down my spine.
I had to calm down first.
ââ¦Which way do I roll?â
I whispered to him in a voice that sounded like breathing, and Sianâs eyes, which had been dying out, opened slightly.
He forcibly lifted the corners of his lips as if thanking me for coming to my senses.
ââ¦Right by your sight.â
âAnd run away?â
âMm.â
I raised my head slightly.
A man with a large physique caught his eye from a distance over Sianâs shoulder.
It was brown hair and black eyes.
Seeing him muttering something while holding his necklace, he wasnât an adult.
ââ¦Is it a communication tool?â
Age at least 17 years old.
However, Sian, who was only about 7 years old, wouldnât be a match for that goon.
âHe said, âbrotherâ.â
He said he was going to find his parents, but was he originally enemies with his family?
What on earth does Sian have to do with that assailant?
I was about to roll my body, but I paused and thought.
Even if I succeed in escaping, Sian will be in danger.
But if I donât run away, weâll both die.
âAfter running away, letâs call the knights to help Sian.â
After all, this place was inside the duchy.
Even since I disappeared in Lisaâs arms, the duchy must have gone wild by now.
âIn other words, if I hold out a little bit, the knights will come.â
I hardened my heart and swallowed a thick saliva.
Looking at Sian with changed eyes, he nodded his head as if he realized that I had made up my mind.
I was trying to roll my body like that.
âI want you to bring her quickly!â
Crash!
Sian, whom I was wrapped around, was hit in the rib by his thick leg and fell sideways.
âUuugh. Ugh.â
Holding back his groans, he curled up like a slug.
âCough.â
Suddenly, the hand of the assailant lifted me up, suffocating me.
âWhatâs so hard about bringing a 5-year-old with you? Brother has to work hard like this⦠AAAKH!â
Crunch.
Do you think Iâll be easily caught?
I bit his wrist as hard as I could, and the surprisingly strong power jaw shook him off.
Thud.
I hit the tree and fell into the bush.
âTo think that you hit the Princess of Vallois. If the knights come, it will be the death penalty for you.â
Well, it was nice to have a counterattack anyway.
ââ¦Uuugh.â
It felt like something was broken as my back hit the hard tree.
I couldnât breathe properly.
A numbing pain gripped my neck.
âCough, coughâ¦â
It was a time when I was panting like a fish trying to catch my breath.
â⦠Just go back.â
Sian struggled to get up, clutching his stomach.
With limping steps, he managed to block the gap between me and the assailant, and coughed.
The assailantâs expression turned strange.
âWhy are you protecting the Princess of Vallois?â
âShe did nothing wrong.â
âWhat?â
âThe Princess did nothing wrong. Why should you take a helpless child?â
[The Princess did nothing wrong.]
I raised my head with difficulty at the unfamiliar name that came out of Sianâs mouth.
âYou son of a bitch, perhaps you.â
It was then.
[I got the target. I will aim.]
[Priiinceeeees!]
Lisaâs screams were heard not far away.
The assailant who was walking stopped.
Although he had blood vessels protruding from his eyes, ready to kill Sian who interrupted him.
âDamn it! Damn it!â
Perhaps thinking that my abduction came first, he pushed Sian and lifted my collar.
ââ¦Euaakh.â
Suddenly, my body was lifted and the wound seemed to open.
My mouth opened in pain as if it had been torn apart, yet the assailant warned me sternly, as if he thought I would bite his arm again.
âTry it again. And youâre going to experience hell, kid.â
Youâre the one who is falling into hell.
âLisa⦠Mmmph.â
I tried to call Lisa, but my mouth was blocked by his sweaty palm.
The assailant growled and stretched out the rest of his arm.
Soon, a huge portal for movement was created at the tip of his finger.
âP-Portal.â
A red light that burned space and time.
The portal that created a whirlpool like a sea of fire soared with devouring force.
The assailant was really in a hurry and grabbed Sian with the other hand, yet he continued to resist.
âLet Billie go! Let her go!â
âMmmph, mmph!â
âUgh! You bastards, be quiet!â
The two of us struggled to the death on either side of the assailant.
However, there seemed to be no damage to the assailant, who had been trained thoroughly.
âAm I going to die like this?â
I regressed, though.
But I donât know why?
Not being able to say goodbye to Dad, in vain like this?
Fear dominated my entire body.
By the time tears pop out from the corners of my eyes.
âUaaaakh!â
Out of nowhere, a howling sound was heard from above.
ââ¦The assailantâs scream?â
The situation was sudden.
I lifted my head, and through my tousled hair, the man crumpled in pain came into view.
And right away his side was noticeable.
âY-You bastard!â
âI told you to let Billie go.â
The assailant looked down to the right with bloody red eyes.
Sian was stabbing his side with a dagger.
âSi,â
Sian.
I was subconsciously trying to call my friend by name.
âPlease stop,â
âAaaaakhh!â
ââ¦I told you!â
That was the moment.
â!â
This time, Sianâs black eyes, which had been stabbed in the abdomen, were dyed golden.
It was an aura.
âSian?â
Time seemed to have stopped.
Slightly startled golden eyes were staring at me through my turbulent black hair.
âBillie.â
He seemed to mutter.
Swooshã ¡
Stab!
âAAAAAKH!â
An arrow from Vallois that flew in at some point pierced the heart of the assailant.
Sian grabbed the completely crippled assailant and went into the portal.
Ziiingã ¡
The huge fire was extinguished in the air like that.
ââ¦â
I couldnât believe it.
Golden eyes and an aura.
Sian was Peter.
***
Rustleã ¡
Left behind, I fell through the air and fell onto a field.
Yet it didnât even hurt.
âTo think Sian was the male lead, Peter.â
That he, the nice, shy kid, killed me and my family in my previous life.
ââ¦â
The common sense that supported my world collapsed.
I had doubts.
But I thought it wasnât Sian.
Because Sianâs eyes are black, and Peterâs are goldâ¦
âAh.â
A meaningless exclamation escaped from my throat.
As reason gradually returned, the punishment for the sins I had neglected and denied was punishing me.
Aura users had golden eyes.
No one said it was their original eye color.
Tapã ¡
My hand that had been stretched through the weeds wriggled.
But more than that, this body didnât move.
I still remember vividly.
The golden light that spread from the center of the iris of the achromatic pupils.
The gold-eyed Sian was unusually beautiful, like a person who had regained its original color.
Just like what the male lead was supposed to be.
It felt like someone hit me hard in the back of my head.
I fell and could hardly get up.
ââ¦What should I do.â
When I lifted my closed eyelids, the clear sky poured in.
The weather was nice.
Looking at the unreachable sun, Sianâs golden eyes came to my mind again.
ââ¦What should I really doâ¦â
âWhat is this. I came because I felt an aura.â
It was then.
An irritated voice broke the still air.
âThereâs no one else other than this kid?â
Pink hair sticking out obscured my vision.
What is it?
âHave the cherry blossoms already bloomed?â
âHey, Bian. Did anyone dare do it in Vallois Castle?â
âKai. Judging by the expression on her face, it seems that she didnât use an aura, but instead suffered from it.â
âNo. I definitely felt it was coming from here, I told you?â
There wasnât even one pink hair, but two.
â?â
I slowly blinked my blurry eyes at the bizarre sight, then hurriedly raised my upper body.
Pink hair with blue eyes.
The twin brothers were back.
