76.
Theor also seemed to have heard our conversation, looking at me with widened eyes.
That was the moment.
The dark magic that had been poured onto the floor instantly disappeared, and the dark sorcerer created countless black smoke spears on both sides of his shoulders.
In the sudden situation, Lloyd, Perioze’s Sister, and Greim each took defensive stances using their respective attributes, but the dark sorcerer was faster.
He aimed for Theor like before, and I used dark magic to create a protective barrier around Theor.
That’s when it happened.
Thud.
A black spear made of dark sorcery pierced straight through my heart.
From the shock, dark red blood gushed from my mouth.
‘Ah, so this is how I die after all.’
I had possessed a character destined for a brutal death ending and struggled desperately to avoid that fate, only to end up dying while saving the man I love.
Actually, after learning that this place wasn’t the original story and that I had entered not through possession but into another version of my existence, my relationship with Perioze’s Sister had improved, so I thought there would be no more deaths.
In the end, those meant to die would die after all.
“Theor… run…”
My mouth was full of blood, so I couldn’t speak properly.
My breathing became increasingly labored, and my vision darkened.
But even in that state, only Perioze’s Sister’s voice calling my name and wailing came through strangely clear.
“Eli! Stay conscious! Eli! No!”
My heart ached at Perioze’s Sister’s anguished crying.
‘Sister…’
When I first possessed this body, I only planned to seduce Perioze’s Sister who would kill me, so I could enjoy a peaceful possession life without a brutal death ending.
Throughout reading the original work, the charismatic and justified villainess Princess Perioze was my favorite, so I planned to become friends with her to avoid the brutal death ending and live happily while being close to my beloved favorite character.
After realizing this was reality rather than possession, I spent blissful days building a strong friendship with my favorite sister as I had wanted.
I believed firmly that there would be no more brutal death endings for me.
‘But then… why did it turn out like this?’
Theor.
At first, I was interested in him simply because he was the only being with darkness attributes very similar to my dark magic.
Just as dark magic was shunned as evil magic in the world I originally came from, darkness attributes that stood opposite to light attributes were also rejected here as wicked power.
I was only concerned about that common ground, but before I knew it, I had fallen in love with him.
If I had known this would happen, I should have confessed properly too.
Like Theor’s confession to me, I should have expressed my feelings with sincerity.
I should have said I loved him, not just that I liked him.
I captured in my blurring vision my favorite Perioze’s Sister covered in tears and Theor looking at me with a face frozen in shock.
‘In the end, I’m finishing like this without being able to protect my favorite character or the person I wanted to protect until the end…’
As my consciousness slowly sank into the dark abyss, I prayed desperately one last time.
‘Please, let it end with just me. Sister too, Theor too… please don’t let anyone else die anymore…’
And soon, all the light in my world completely disappeared.
But that was only temporary.
My soul that had left my body could watch what happened after my death.
While everyone shed tears over my death, Theor stood there upright, unable to regain his senses from shock.
Greim and Lloyd blocked the black spears flying toward Theor while shouting for him to come to his senses, but Theor just stared down at my dead body without doing anything.
As if it would be fine for him to follow me in death just like that.
I wanted desperately to make him come to his senses somehow, so I called out to him in my mind with all my strength.
Since my soul was still alive, my contract with Pandeum wouldn’t be severed either, so I thought I could continue telepathy with Theor.
‘Please, please! Theor!’
In that moment, life returned to Theor’s dead eyes at my call.
A single tear fell from his eyes as he looked up at the empty air.
That sight made my heart feel like it was being squeezed, but now wasn’t the time to worry about that.
‘Theor! I’m going to transfer my dark magic to you now! I can’t see because my body and soul are separated, but the dark magic still exists!’
Since I had no body to manifest dark magic, perhaps if I mixed it with Theor’s darkness attributes, he could use my power.
I instinctively poured my remaining strength into Theor to protect him.
Fortunately, the dark magic fused well with his darkness attributes and settled within Theor’s body, allowing him to use all the things he couldn’t with just darkness attributes – dark magic barriers and everything using black shadows.
‘You need to eliminate the barrier! Getting out of the Demon God’s ship comes first! Only then can Pandeum help us!’
At my cry, Theor used my dark magic and his darkness attributes to instantly tear apart the barrier.
“…!”
“Wh-what!”
He was already strong originally, but having absorbed my dark magic to the maximum, even the Demon God couldn’t withstand Theor’s power.
Theor instantly covered the black spears the dark sorcerer created to protect the Demon God with my black shadows to nullify them, then skillfully mixed darkness and earth attributes to bind the dark sorcerer’s hands and feet.
Then, following my command, he tore apart the barrier with frightening persistence to escape from being trapped inside the Demon God’s ship.
[Gah! Gaaahhhhh!]
The Demon God fled from the astounding pain Theor inflicted.
When the Demon God’s belly that we thought was a barrier disappeared, the Grand Hall revealed itself with bright light.
Along with it, the Empress and her subordinates who had been waiting to kill anyone who escaped from the Demon God’s belly came into full view.
The Empress seemed slightly flustered that I had died instead of the Emperor, and appeared to be quickly grasping the situation upon seeing the dark sorcerer bound by Theor.
“You! You there! Protect His Majesty the Emperor!”
Only then recognizing the exact situation, the Empress gave orders, pretending to have brought soldiers for the Emperor.
But they couldn’t even get near the Emperor and had their necks severed by shadows.
“How insolent! How dare you harm my people!”
“It is to protect His Majesty the Emperor. No one other than us may approach His Majesty.”
“Crown Prince!”
The Empress’s face hardened menacingly at Lloyd’s words.
She was furious at Lloyd for treating her like someone who might assassinate the Emperor.
“How dare you slander me, the Empire’s mother…!”
That’s when it happened.
The dark sorcerer, who I thought would remain obediently bound by Theor’s attributes, quickly escaped from his bindings and rushed toward us at high speed.
Just as I was about to shout for Theor to be careful, thinking he might be targeting Theor again, the dark sorcerer began stabbing my fallen body with a black spear to draw blood.
“…!”
The moment the sharp spear was about to pierce my heart, Shin and Su appeared and grabbed me with their beaks to pull me away.
[Human!]
Thanks to Shin and Su, the black spear grazed my stomach instead of my heart, and blood flowed from the grazed area.
“Eli!”
“Eli!”
Perioze’s Sister and Caroline quickly approached. Perioze’s Sister stopped the bleeding from my stomach, and Caroline began healing with light attributes.
Meanwhile, Theor, Lloyd, and Greim attacked the dark sorcerer.
“You fool! You should have gone for the Emperor’s neck first!”
The Empress seemed thoroughly angry that the dark sorcerer had wounded my body instead of killing the Emperor as she expected when he escaped. The excited Empress raged.
She shouted at the dark sorcerer that since things had come to this, he must not fail, even though all of us including the Emperor were listening to the Empress’s outcry.
“I only needed that young lady’s blood to heal the Demon God. I’ll keep my promise, so please shut your mouth, Your Majesty the Empress.”
The dark sorcerer seemed to think he had become so strong from all the human souls the Demon God had devoured that no one could approach him.
He had no idea how poisonous overconfidence in battle could be, having never possessed such power before.
In contrast, Theor showed no emotional disturbance despite becoming transcendentally strong after receiving my power.
He seemed to only think about quickly binding the dark sorcerer and finding a way to save me, concentrating all his attention on capturing the dark sorcerer who had escaped from his darkness attribute bindings.
Yes, that’s what I thought.
‘Theor! I’m going to kill him!’
If only I hadn’t seen Theor aiming for the dark sorcerer’s neck.
He was already half out of his mind.
Ever since the dark sorcerer had pierced a hole in my body with that black spear.
