[Comments]
Didn’t this guy just suck up to Laura and Sina?This dog is such a glutton, LOLᄏᄏᄏᄏThis confirms that Rion is the main wife, right?Noah is the defeated heroine?According to Annoona's logic, Laura totally devoured Noah.Serious couple addiction here...
“Isn’t it right to give her the vaccine?”
After Laura left, Changyoung spoke up.
“Aisha saved Sina once, so I think it’s right for us to save Rion.”
“My thoughts are different. We should only use the vaccine for ourselves.”
In response, Jeongseok replied.
To be honest, Jeongseok didn’t like Laura very much.
'It was a tough-to-make safe house.'
Of course, without Laura, they wouldn’t have been able to enter the bank. It was true that they gained withdrawal rights thanks to her.
But that was a right they would have obtained sooner or later.
Laura merely expedited the process, but he thought it was excessive for her to demand the safe house in return.
'Sina was saved, so it's even-steven now.'
If Laura took the safe house but saved Sina in return, Jeongseok thought there was no longer any debt between them.
Besides, the fact that Sina was in danger might partly be due to Laura.
If the base hadn’t changed locations, maybe Sina and Noah could have found supplies elsewhere instead of that department store.
In other words, he could think that the butterfly effect of losing the safe house caused Sina to be in danger.
In that sense, there was nothing left to give. Jeongseok believed there was no obligation to give up the precious vaccine for Rion.
“There’s only one vaccine left anyway. What if an infected person appears among us after we hand this one over? We’d be done for.”
'Jeongseok, you bastard...'
Changyoung barely held back a sigh at Jeongseok’s words.
He understood what Jeongseok was saying. However, it was the exact opposite of Changyoung’s style.
Jeongseok was calculating and cold, and he hated losing.
And perhaps he thought of this game, “Assassins,” as a kind of competition. If he gained something, he wouldn’t want to let it go as much as possible. He might believe that one must hold onto power in the game.
On the other hand, Changyoung didn’t want to play the game too calculatingly.
‘...Don’t act up.’
Changyoung thought to himself.
That was a phrase he always kept in mind during his VTuber activities.
Aurora was certainly arrogant.
But she could afford to be.
After all, her setting was that of a villainess expelled from the aristocracy.
So, being slightly arrogant was merely part of her roleplay. In fact, having that degree of character was what made her appealing as a VTuber.
And she was a female VTuber.
Depending on the person, they might feel differently, but female VTubers often brought entertainment with their aggressive persona.
Conversely, male VTubers tended to gain fun by being defensive and accepting the aggressiveness of female VTubers, Changyoung thought.
Changyoung especially wanted to be that way.
After all, Aisha had only female VTubers.
While the fanbase of Aisha might not be as negative towards male VTubers as the Horizon Air fandom, it could still have its biases.
Please say it more indirectlyᄏᄏᄏᄏYou’re not a girl, are you?Don’t shout, TenrenᄏᄏᄏᄏWhy is embarrassment always our share?The goddess of Masina has no sense of shame.
“Ugh, uuhh!?”
She tried to scream, but her mouth was blocked before she could.
“Please don’t scream. If you’re a girl, you should act gracefully.”
A breath brushed against her ear.
It was a voice she couldn’t forget.
Though she couldn’t see her face, there was no doubt: Aurora was right behind her.
With a knife stabbing into her back.
“Aurora... what are you...?”
“I came to get the vaccine.”
“Ugh....”
Sina swallowed hard.
She already knew they had two vaccines....
“No, are you really going to kill me for the vaccine...?”
“That's right. Is there a problem with that?”
“Are you insane...? It’s absurd to kill someone for a vaccine!”
“Let me rephrase that. If you have the means to save someone and you turn a blind eye to it, isn’t that also a form of murder?”
“Hmm...?”
“You were the one who tried to kill someone for the vaccine first, right?”
Is that how it works...?
Somehow, it felt like a correct statement, and Sina involuntarily agreed.
She didn’t have the vocabulary to confront Laura...!
“And by the way, Sina, your life.”
Sina felt a cold sensation against her neck.
The blade that had once stabbed her back was now touching the nape of her neck.
“I saved your life, didn’t I? So at least you could say that your life is mine.”
“That’s nonsense....”
“Oh dear, you’re the one saying something strange. Then let me ask you this: Do you think your life is wholly yours right now?”
Saying that, Laura pushed the knife further into Sina’s neck.
Having already been stabbed in the back, blood was flowing out in real-time.
Was it because of the bleeding? She felt her consciousness slowly fading. It felt like the mindset of a baby falling asleep in its mother’s arms.
Due to the game’s sensory adjustment system, it wasn’t painful, but as Laura said,
Even if Sina wanted to live, she couldn’t do it by her own will.
Sina was already tightly held and subdued by Laura, unable to survive on her own strength.
Even dying by her own strength would be impossible. She had heard that biting one’s tongue wouldn’t lead to immediate suicide.
At this moment──Sina’s life belonged to Laura.
Whether Laura chose to save Sina or kill her was entirely in her hands.
“...Fine. Do as you wish.”
Sina resigned herself.
Was it so ridiculous that it made her laugh?
“Thanks for dying for me.”
Thud!
Laura’s blade sank into Sina’s neck.
What a ridiculous closing line. Not even a psychopath would say that...
‘...Well, it’s fine.’
This wasn’t the first time she was dying at Aurora’s hands.
And somehow, Sina was strangely accepting that this would happen.
Yeah. Rather than being the bad girl, it might be better to just let it happen.
In that sense, dying for her wasn’t such a bad idea, Sina thought.
[General] Isn’t this a total confession?
“I saved your life, didn’t I?”
“Then at least you could say your life is mine.”
“Then let me ask you: Do you think your life is wholly yours right now?”
“Fine. Do as you wish.”
Killing innocence after healthy affectionᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏᄏ
Sina thought that before seeing those posts in the community.
