95 – Will Discovery 2

Is this what it feels like to sink into an endless abyss?

The moment Rumi saw Dern’s will, she felt as if her entire mind and body were falling into a deep abyss, and she had no choice but to freeze.

‘… ‘Dern dies?’

I never thought about it… No, she let herself face what maybe she didn’t want to think about.

She was standing there in a daze, shocked as if her entire brain was about to explode.

Suddenly, the cat in front looked at him as if he was pitiful and started speaking ‘human language’ again.

[So be nice to Dern! Don’t do anything strange!]

The moment she heard those words, her complicated mind became even more tangled, and the tip of her nose and the corners of her eyes became strangely hot, until tears came to her eyes.

The black cat sat down on the floor, looking at himself, and then began to continue his words as if he were preaching.

[Because it’s not too late. How about she be nice to Dern now? Then she might not die!]

I couldn’t figure out what the connection was between being nice to someone and not dying.

Since there was nothing else she could do for now, and she had been meaning to do it in the first place, Danny nodded her head.

The black cat was satisfied and began making other requests.

[And! Give me a snack! Since I told you something good, I want to have a snack!]

To be honest, I was in the middle of discovering this, but I didn’t have the energy to provide cat snacks or anything like that.

My mind was a bit complicated, and I felt like I could get through the depression only if I forced myself to move, so I nodded.

“Go, I’ll bring it to you.”

[Yes! 1 Serving equals 2 servings… ! No, give it to two people! No, 3 servings!]

Hearing those words, I just shook my head and tried to hurry out.

I see someone approaching here, humming.

“Derndern.”

Judging by the voice, it seems to be Delia.

As I looked at Delia approaching and humming in front of me, I thought about telling her that I had found the suicide note.

‘… No. ‘I think it’s better not to talk about this yet.’

The moment she revealed this, Delia could have collapsed just like herself.

Thinking that it would be better for him to bear this pain alone, he hid her letter in her arms.

‘You said something bad to me, but… Still, I tried to help.’

Considering this, he decides to protect Delia from this and endures her crying.

When Delia saw her own expression, she stopped humming and slowly approached.

“What’s going on…” ? No, it did exist.”

I guess she mistakenly thought she was crying because of something that had happened before.

I wanted to clear up this misunderstanding, but I felt like the moment I did, I would honestly tell the truth.

She just shook her head a few times and then quickly changed her subject.

“Delia. “I have something to tell you.”

“Huh? What?”

Delia looked at herself, blinking her eyes as if she didn’t understand the situation.

She saw Delia like that and gave her a small hint.

“To Dern… “Please be very kind to Dern.”

She spoke in detail because she felt like she would get caught.

She left out as much information as possible and only conveyed how she felt at the moment, so the answer ended up being a bit foolish.

So, I was thinking about whether to say it again, but Delia gave me an expression that said she didn’t understand at all.

“Uh… First of all, I’m not sure how to answer. “It’s already happening.”

“You have to do better than what you are doing now. “You might regret it.”

After hearing these words, Delia smiled awkwardly and began to talk step by step.

“Ugh… Hey? Don’t misunderstand, just listen? Actually, I think that’s something that should be said to you rather than to me. Honestly, I’m doing my best to treat you well, but you… “

Delia trailed off and looked away, and then she just smiled awkwardly and changed her subject.

“Well, can I go anyway? “I have some work to do for a while.”

“Yes, yes.”

With those words, Delia begins to move down her hallway as if she is running away, as if she is uncomfortable in this position.

As she looked at the back, she continued to sob and started heading to the kitchen.

* * * * *

In order to complete my research on space expansion magic, I am writing down spells and modifications in the air to solve them.

Suddenly, Delia hurriedly came into my lab and spoke to me in an embarrassed voice.

“Did you do something to Rumi?”

When I heard that, I shook my head and said I didn’t do anything.

Delia spoke to me with a frown and a hint of disbelief.

“Then Rumi, why are you doing that?”

“Why are you doing that? “What do you mean?”

“Her complexion became black and white… No, to put it bluntly, she looks like the face of someone on the verge of committing suicide.”

I couldn’t hide my surprise at those words.

He definitely looked like he had strengthened his will in the morning, but I wondered how much time had passed for that to have changed.

‘Did something happen?’

Otherwise, I don’t think you would react like that.

I thought it would be a good idea to check first, so I stopped researching and talked to Delia.

“Where was the last time you saw Rumi?”

At those words, Delia pointed behind her and spoke.

“I ran into you in front of your room earlier.”

“My room?”

At those words, a thought passes through my mind.

I thought maybe I saw the will that Rumi had hidden in my room.

The moment that thought crossed my mind, I grabbed her coat and spoke to Delia.

“Let’s go out for a while.”

“Huh? “I’m here now?”

Delia seemed to be quite disappointed that he was leaving her alone, so she pouted her lips and complained as if she were showing off.

Looking at Delia like that, I had no choice but to place one condition.

“I will grant you one wish later, whether it’s a date or something else. “Please wait for today.”

At those words, Delia’s eyes sparkled and she spoke to me in a rather fast voice.

“Anything? “You said something, right?”

The moment I heard the excited voice, I realized I had made a mistake.

‘Rather than worrying about this now.’

I thought it would be a good idea to get to Rumi quickly, so I gave her a cursory nod and ran outside.

‘I definitely said I saw it in front of my room.’

If that’s the case, it’s probably nearby.

I decided to go to my room and move forward.

She noticed Luna waiting for me in her hallway, licking her front paws.

After seeing this, I thought it went well and quickly asked Luna a question.

“Luna, do you know where Rumi is?”

At that question, Luna looked at me blankly, and then she smiled brightly and spoke.

[Master, it’s better not to look for Rumi right now!]

“What?”

[Because I laid the groundwork… ! So I think it’s better to leave it alone!]

Hearing those words, I deliberately made a puzzled expression and gestured for an explanation.

Luna, who saw this, looked at me and slowly continued her words.

[The leader cat said that. He said that if things keep getting worse no matter how hard you try, it’s a good idea to worry! Then it will be easier to get over it! So, I made you worry by telling me about the will the master wrote before!]

As if I did a good job, right? That tone of voice instantly gave me a headache and a sigh escaped me.

I looked at Luna, who was smiling triumphantly in front of her.

First of all, I fed him some honey chestnuts as a way to get him to reflect.

“There will be no snacks for a while, so please understand.”

When the ban on snacks came along with the pain.

Luna is crying as if she can’t believe this fact. She looks at me and talks.

[Why… ? Luna just said it because she thought it would be good for her master to copulate with her indiscriminately… Did Luna do something wrong? Luna said she said it for her master… Why are you hitting Luna?]

Not a cat that exists in reality.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s a made-up cat, but the tears are flowing out in large quantities, just like you see in cartoons, and are soaking the nearby carpet.

I looked at Luna like that and thought about it for a while, then decided to withdraw the ‘snack ban’.

“… Since you did it for me, please lift the ban on snacks. But make sure you reflect.”

When Luna was told to withdraw snacks, she sniffled and looked at me.

Soon it sticks to my shoes and starts to crumple.

I was laughing awkwardly as I watched my shoes get wet in an instant.

She caught sight of Rumi running from far away carrying her snack.

‘Then it would be a good idea to talk about the will first.’

I was just about to move forward, thinking I had no idea how to solve the problem.

Luna sniffled and continued her story to me.

[We can’t meet now… I’ll have to wait and meet you. The boss said he likes the cat… ]

I lifted Luna from her shoe and asked a question, thinking I would hear the reason.

“Why should I wait?”

[Only then…] The female becomes begging and clings to her master even more… If you stick to it like that, it won’t come off no matter what happens. I said it would be better to wait a little bit… ]

At those words, I smiled and looked at Luna.

I told him that wasn’t the case and slowly walked forward and called Rumi.
