127.
…Some time after a flash of light occurred.
“Gasp, huff….”
Lillian crawled out from the burned ruins, stumbling and struggling.
Who would have thought she’d personally put the world’s first rule into practice.
“Ugh!”
Lillian grabbed her left shoulder and panted. It hurt enough to bring tears to her eyes.
‘Creator God, if you’re going to strike with lightning, please control it more precisely.’
Being close to that bastard Caspian, she inevitably got slightly burned.
But this kind of thing won’t heal just by applying saliva….
Let’s not exaggerate.
‘Still, this much can be treated.’
Lillian crawled around shaking the fallen people around her.
“Everyone… Marguerite, all of you….”
The Villain had said ‘different experiences make different people.’
But even with changed circumstances, all of these people were precious to Lillian.
And they were breathing.
‘Ah, thank goodness.’
Lillian began massaging the hands and feet of those she could heal, just like when she had healed Ramio.
When she was starting to worry about how much time had passed.
Rumble….
The ground vibrated.
Lillian immediately realized.
Since she had defeated this world’s Caspian, the ‘original world’ was pulling her back.
– …ry. Lilly, can you hear?
“Ren!”
– …will wait…, I’ll soon-.
Lillian looked around.
Ren’s voice was unstable, as if there was interference.
Could he be in danger too?
‘I need to hurry.’
Let me focus on his voice again.
But then.
“…Lillian!”
A voice desperately searching for her came from the edge of the Forest.
The scent of the winter forest also carried on the wind.
He from this world was calling for her.
“Lillian! Answer me!”
She hadn’t intended to ignore his call. Really.
Lillian also wanted to give a proper farewell to someone she had this kind of relationship with.
The moment she was about to respond to his call, something completely unexpected struck Lillian.
‘Huh?’
Why is the ground suddenly getting closer?
Unless gravity has gone strange, am I collapsing…?
But before she could fall face-first into the dirt, he caught her.
“Lillian, stay conscious!”
Lillian went limp in This Man’s arms.
Having died once in the Hospital Room of her previous life, she quickly realized what was happening.
This world’s body was dying.
* * *
Lillian realized.
Come to think of it, I originally died in my ‘past life’ too, didn’t I?
But the situation was very different then.
She couldn’t protect everyone, couldn’t help anyone.
‘No, that person didn’t abandon me!’
And thinking she was abandoned in the Rear, she faced the Revenants alone with a dagger.
She waited for the Villain until the moment of death.
Hmm….
So it seems the fate of dying once in this place can’t be changed. How unfortunate.
‘But death comes fairly to everyone from the beginning anyway.’
What matters is not the same timing of death, but ‘how’ you die.
Lillian had always believed that from the start.
But she couldn’t share her life philosophy with these people who were in chaos right now….
The Barracks where they brought Lillian was in complete uproar.
His anguished cries could be heard above her head.
“Call a Physician, Lillian! Lillian…!”
Lillian lifted her head with difficulty.
‘I wrote a letter explaining the situation.’
I put it in my clothes pocket. I was going to give it to this person before leaving.
But the moment she checked the situation, she sighed.
‘Ah, this is really ruined.’
It burned up earlier when I personally put the first law into practice.
“Your Highness.”
“You.”
He held Lillian’s upper body.
She had seen him sharp-edged many times, but this was the first time seeing him unable to control himself like this.
“I told you not to leave. I said I would return everything!”
The focus completely disappeared from his eyes.
“If you die like this, do you think I’ll forgive you? I will never-.”
“I went to the Tower of Seclusion that time.”
“…!”
A fading memory came back.
It was the day Carkin had upset her with his womanizing.
“Petals fell like snow….”
“Lillian.”
“That was something you did for me, wasn’t it.”
The Crown Prince who, except for the auction, she had always watched from afar out of fear.
‘They said he brought down the eyes of death.’
Why would such a person show her such a scene?
“You made it snow with flowers… for me.”
“….”
“It was so beautiful that I smiled.”
It was a precious memory, but life had been so hard that she had forgotten it.
Lillian felt his face with one hand.
“Thank you.”
I’m really sorry for leaving when you told me not to.
And.
“Your Highness…. Please don’t destroy this world.”
It’s a request.
The people here are still precious to Lillian.
“I’m just going back in time with you… to go somewhere else. I’m not leaving forever.”
But we can’t be together.
Lillian buried herself in his embrace despite her apologetic feelings.
She had become so cold that she couldn’t help it.
“Even if it’s a little difficult… try to become a good emperor.”
I know that if you put your mind to it, you can get along well with other people.
So I hope you live without loneliness in a world that shines brightly again.
‘Farewell.’
Lillian took one last deep breath.
* * *
As she closed her eyes, Lillian began to slowly sink into endless darkness.
Lily.
Someone embraced Lillian from behind in the darkness.
I caught you.
I won’t let you go ever again.
And Lillian opened her eyes again in the current world.
* * *
“Why are you crying?”
When she opened her eyes, the embrace she saw was exactly the same as before.
But instead of the barracks, she could see a dark palace.
And the Villain had become younger.
“Lily, why are you crying?”
That’s right.
She had only been with that person for what felt like a week.
Moreover, the person with the same soul was right here.
Yet her heart felt completely empty.
“That’s strange. I don’t make you cry either. Did that guy make you cry?”
…But an ominous chill began to settle in this voice.
“Should I use my ability on that version of me from that time after all?”
“Haa. No! I’m not crying.”
Lillian quickly wiped the moisture from her eyes.
Though they might not be able to meet, even if they did meet, she didn’t want to see people with identical faces fighting each other.
‘With the abilities these people have.’
They would literally fight with the survival of the world at stake.
Lillian stood up with the Villain’s help.
“I’m sorry for worrying everyone.”
Though it was quite creepy, it seemed she had returned while lying on the altar.
‘What was that bastard Caspian trying to do?’
The companions who had been waiting for Lillian to wake up immediately stuck close to her.
“No, Miss…!”
“We’re so glad you’re safe!”
Her heart still ached.
But all the precious people were here.
‘And there are people who came all the way here because of me too.’
It was time to pull herself together again.
‘I should check on the Holy Knights too.’
Look at Noah’s condition.
His face had turned red from the difficulty of serving a superior like Lillian who had no field experience.
“Lady Lillian. We’re truly relieved that you’ve returned safely.”
“Thank you for your support even while I was away, Noah.”
He must have had a really hard time, as Noah turned even redder at this really basic expression of gratitude.
And the Villain’s hand supporting her waist twitched.
He must be quite tired too.
“I’m honored… However, there’s an urgent matter I must report to Lady Lillian.”
“What is it?”
“Prince Kail and Iris Tillard have also entered this palace.”
