Chapter 195

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

Dana was having a dream.

 

That day. The night she slept with Ignis. The night she seduced him to break off her engagement with Lyos.

 

“Lord Ignis, I can’t breathe.”

 

The strength in the arms holding her loosened slightly. Dana quietly lifted her head to look at the man.

 

In the darkness, Ignis was gazing at her silently.

 

“What are you looking at like that?”

 

“You’re really warm.”

 

“…What?”

 

“I said you’re warm.”

 

“…”

 

He acts like someone holding a woman’s body for the first time… no, that’s not it.

 

‘This must be his first time.’

 

Since Ignis had lost all his memories, this kind of thing would be his first time.

 

“Lord Ignis. By any chance—”

 

Dana asked carefully.

 

“Have any memories come back to you?”

 

“Not really.”

 

Ignis played dumb.

 

“None at all.”

 

For someone claiming to have no memories at all, he seemed like something was coming back to him.

 

However, since he didn’t seem to want to talk about it, Dana didn’t press further.

 

Then unexpectedly, Ignis was the one who asked.

 

“Hey, Dana. I’m curious about something.”

 

“Yes?”

 

“Your grandfather is dead, right?”

 

“My grandfather, you mean…”

 

“The human who adopted me into Windsor. That old man who refused to let me leave Windsor until the end, Rodrigo Windsor. That bastard is definitely dead, right?”

 

Ah. Dana nodded.

 

“Yes. I heard Lord Rodrigo passed away long ago.”

 

“…”

 

“Why do you ask?”

 

“It bothers me. Actually, some memories have come back, and that bastard was completely insane…”

 

No more words followed. Perhaps he thought he’d said something unnecessary. Ignis changed the subject.

 

“I’m hungry.”

 

Dana obediently went along with his change of topic.

 

“When we wake up tomorrow, let’s eat something delicious. We’ll have a meal and eat dessert too.”

 

“Dessert?”

 

“Yes. I want to eat something sweet. Chocolate.”

 

“Chocolate?”

 

“Ah, do you like chocolate by any chance?”

 

“…I don’t know.”

 

“What?”

 

“I said I don’t know.”

 

Ignis snapped with a stiffly hardened expression.

 

“How would I know? That kind of thing is only eaten by noble young ladies like you.”

 

Ah. That’s true. Chocolate was quite an expensive dessert here…

 

“Try chocolate tomorrow. It’s incredibly delicious. It melts smoothly in your mouth. Your tongue feels sweet, and your mood improves…”

 

“What’s the point of eating something like that? If it melts in your mouth, there’s no texture to chew. Though I don’t know what it feels like to have something melt in your mouth.”

 

Ignis replied gruffly, but inwardly he seemed curious about what chocolate was.

 

‘What? He has a cute side too.’

 

I should buy him chocolate tomorrow.

 

Dana buried her face in his chest. Then Ignis fidgeted with her lower back and, unable to hold back, let out a sigh.

 

“Hey, Dana.”

 

“Yes?”

 

“Really, really, let’s do it just one more time for the last time.”

 

“You said earlier was the last time…”

 

“This time will be the last. Really the last.”

 

“…”

 

“You may have started this on your own, but ending it requires my consent.”

 

That’s true. I have nothing to say to that.

 

When she remained quietly silent, perhaps taking it as refusal, Ignis added coaxingly.

 

“Just stay still. Close your eyes and just lie there comfortably…”

 

Dana did as he said. She closed her eyes and just lay there as if sleeping.

 

Ignis was very heavy and very firm, and also…

 

‘Warm…’

 

The moment she thought that, Dana realized.

 

That right now, Ignis was receiving exactly the same sensation as her.

 

Warmth. Comfort. Peace. Unity.

 

The illusion of not being alone.

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

The moment she woke from her dream, Dana thought.

 

‘Chocolate…’

 

I never got to buy it for him.

 

After that, Karl came barging in and stabbed Ignis in the stomach with a sword, and from then on Ignis avoided me…

 

And then he died.

 

But why did I suddenly dream of Ignis?

 

‘Ah, is it because of this?’

 

Noah, who was sleeping with his face buried in her chest.

 

Noah’s two arms were holding her waist so tightly. It was suffocating. Just like when she slept with Ignis.

 

Of course, unlike with Ignis, they hadn’t crossed the line.

 

‘Or wait, isn’t this already crossing the line enough?’

 

Dana stared down at Noah’s face.

 

They hadn’t completely crossed the line, but they hadn’t exactly stayed within it either.

 

Noah’s pink lips, sleeping like an angel, had her breast flesh caught between them. He’d been particularly obsessed with her chest since yesterday, even while sleeping…

 

She felt strange. Many thoughts came to her at once, but she ultimately reached the conclusion that it couldn’t be helped. Reclaiming Yeon Dana’s body. Nothing could take priority over that.

 

Dana gently detached the sleeping Noah and got up from the bed.

 

On the nightstand, the golden key Noah had given her at dawn was glinting.

 

The key to the Holy Mother Chapel.

 

‘I definitely saw Lord Ignis enter that place.’

 

 

 

“I saw it too.”

 

 

 

At dawn the other day, while handing over the Holy Mother Chapel Key, Noah had also told that story.

 

 

 

“Someone like Uncle Ignis entered the Holy Mother Chapel.”

 

 

 

He said he saw a scene similar to what she had witnessed not long ago.

 

 

 

“But when I said I saw Uncle Ignis…, Elder Brother Viego said something strange.”

 

 

 

Noah also knew that Ignis was dead. That his body had rotted away, leaving only bone fragments.

 

 

 

“He said that wasn’t Uncle Ignis.”

 

 

 

But what did that mean?

 

 

 

“He said it’s impossible to resurrect a corpse whose head has been destroyed, no matter what shamanism or holy water is used.”

 

 

 

Then what about Ignis?

 

Ignis had already been revived, hadn’t he?

 

On Saint Grave Island, I shot his head with a gun. I clearly saw his shattered head.

 

Why did Viego say such things to Noah?

 

Dana clutched the Holy Mother Chapel Key. Now that she had the key in her hands.

 

‘Let’s go meet Viego.’

 

If she met and talked with him, she would find out.

 

This morning, Viego had invited Noah to breakfast.

 

Dana was planning to go to that meeting in Noah’s place.

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

The meeting place was an isolated annex building deep within the Grand Cathedral. It was said to be a building where Viego often took his rest. There wasn’t a single Holy Knight around.

 

‘What confidence.’

 

Thanks to that, she entered the building without anyone’s interference. As she was walking down the corridor.

 

“Dana.”

 

Someone called her name from behind.

 

Thinking she had misheard, she continued walking, but.

 

“Dana.”

 

She hadn’t misheard.

 

Dana stopped abruptly in place and thought.

 

Is this a dream? Am I still dreaming?

 

Because.

 

“Dana.”

 

This voice was definitely…

 

Dana turned around as if entranced. And she was seized by a shock as if she’d been struck on the back of the head.

 

‘Ah.’

 

On the opposite side stood a man of tremendous height.

 

An overwhelming physique just from looking at him, wild-looking eyes, red pupils, disheveled red hair…

 

Ignis.

 

He was walking toward her. With long strides. Approaching quickly.

 

Dana’s lips parted. From the shock, she couldn’t even let out a moan. Then her heart began beating frantically.

 

It’s Ignis.

 

The sharp face of the man drawing closer, really Ignis was…

 

No.

 

Instinctive intuition struck like lightning. Dana’s fingertips convulsed as if electrocuted.

 

That look in his eyes, that expression, those weren’t Ignis’s.

 

He who had quickly approached suddenly embraced her.

 

“…!”

 

Dana was flustered. Ignis’s hands were trembling like aspen leaves. He pushed her with strong force.

 

“Quickly, quickly. Quickly…”

 

He muttered incomprehensible words. Unable to resist that force, Dana’s body fell to the floor. Ignis mounted on top of her and grabbed her clothes. Then applied force just like that.

 

“…!”

 

Riiip!

 

The clothes tore.

 

“W-wait. Lord Ignis?”

 

Rip, riip! Rip!

 

He continued tearing the clothes.

 

“Lord Ignis, wait!”

 

What? Why?

 

Dana pushed against Ignis’s shoulders. But he grabbed her wrists and pressed them firmly to the floor.

 

It hurts.

 

From the terrifyingly strong force, a moan escaped involuntarily.

 

“This body is dying. I need to replenish my strength, my strength.”

 

Ignis muttered frantically. At that moment Dana was now completely certain. It was Ignis’s voice but not Ignis’s way of speaking.

 

This isn’t Ignis.

 

“This body is dying. I must save it. You want to save it, don’t you? So quickly.”

 

The same face but different eyes and way of speaking, and above all.

 

His skin was corroding.

 

‘This isn’t Ignis.’

 

Something very dangerous that resembled him.

 

Then—

 

‘Gun.’

 

There’s a gun on my thigh. The one Lete gave me as a gift.

 

There was even a Black Core in my pocket. First I should take that out and—

 

Should I shoot? Is it okay to kill?

 

It’s not Lord Ignis, but how can I be certain? What if it really is Ignis?

 

That dilemma was very brief. In the fleeting moment she was conflicted.

 

“Guh, guhk.”

 

Ignis’s face was suddenly jerked upward.

 

“Kheuk!”

 

Starting from his head to his upper body, then eventually his lower body was dragged upward. The heavy weight pressing down on Dana’s body gradually disappeared.

 

Dana gasped for breath and raised her head.

 

Ignis’s body was dangling in midair as if hanged on a gallows.

 

A man had lifted him up while gripping Ignis’s head in one hand.

 

“How long are you going to keep watching?”

 

And the irritated voice of a man falling down.

 

Dana instinctively lowered her gaze.

 

At that moment, sounds began to be heard as if they had been waiting.

 

Crack, crunch, the sound of something breaking and Ignis’s moans bubbling from his throat…

 

“Guhhhk.”

 

And the sound of death, as strength drained completely from his body.

 

Finally, silence.

 

Only then did Dana raise her gaze upward again.

 

“Cult Leader. What should we do with this?”

 

“Dispose of it.”

 

The secretary beside him picked up Ignis’s corpse and disappeared.

 

Only then did the man—Viego turn back to her, but suddenly narrowed his brow and turned his head away.

 

‘Ah.’

 

Dana hastily pulled her clothes together. Her torn clothes had split open, exposing her chest.

 

Even covered with traces of Noah…

 

Then, thud. A jacket fell over her body. At the same time, Viego’s scent washed over her.

 

It was Viego’s jacket.

 

“…”

 

She didn’t want to say thank you. She just kept her mouth tightly shut and put his clothes on her body.

 

“What happened?”

 

Dana asked in a subdued voice.

 

“That thing just now, it wasn’t Lord Ignis, was it?”
