Episode 107
Seeing him turn cold, I wondered if I shouldn’t have asked.
However, it was something I absolutely had to address.
…Since no matter how much I tried to figure out what situation Dillen was in, I couldn’t tell at all.
“Sister is currently trapped in this place.”
Yurta, who was gripping my ankle, caressed my ankle bone. My toes curled at the ticklish sensation.
“Right beside me, whom Sister finds so detestable.”
He whispered to me as if telling me to acknowledge that fact. However, I met his gaze steadfastly.
“You’re ugly, Yurta.”
“…Sister.”
“I said you’re ugly. That way you’re having a fit. Just how long do you plan to keep this up?”
Yurta’s thread of reason seemed precariously close to snapping.
There would be nothing good from continuing to provoke him here.
Even so, what was I supposed to do about this disgusting emotion that was surging up beyond what I could bear?
It seeped through the cracks as if it couldn’t be stopped.
Still.
‘For now, it would be better to humor him.’
With the plan now twisted, it wouldn’t be easy to escape from this North.
If what Yurta said was true, it would be especially difficult now that the checkpoints were under control.
‘Here, I’ll have no choice but to receive help.’
However, I couldn’t think so complacently.
Yurta would naturally know that I would attempt to escape once I left the North.
From that point on, the surveillance would become even stricter than now.
The best I could do right now was simply to humor that damned brat and make him let his guard down.
To think such a flimsy method was the best option – I couldn’t see any solution at all.
I sighed inwardly and reached out my hand to him.
I stroked his cold cheek and whispered with a gentle smile.
“You’re a transcendent being. An existence incomparable to mere humans.”
“…”
“So why do you keep comparing yourself to Dillen?”
When I coaxed him affectionately, his mad red eyes took on a gentle light again.
Yurta buried his cheek in my palm and spoke in a somewhat calmer tone.
“…It’s because Sister keeps looking for only Dillen.”
“You said you ruined Dillen, so why wouldn’t I be curious? You’re the one who gave me reason to ask first.”
“But…”
His softened appearance, like a child full of complaints, was ridiculous.
It felt like dealing with a second Michelle.
Of course, this one had a much worse temperament than Michelle.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me. You brought up Dillen first, so I just asked.”
When I acted as if I wasn’t particularly interested, Yurta’s face brightened.
“Really?”
“Yurta, three years have passed. I’ve been separated from Dillen for that long, so do you think I’d be curious now?”
At those words, Yurta finally showed a happy expression.
He seemed to think that his chance had come too.
That sight was amusing, but in a way, he also seemed like an innocent child.
At the same time, I could feel the pure cruelty of trying to trample on a sibling and draw all of mother’s attention.
“Then Sister wouldn’t care what happens to Dillen now.”
What is he talking about?
“Even if you say that, I know that Sister still prioritizes Dillen over me.”
His brightened expression darkened in an instant.
Yurta’s voice carried a gloomy tone.
“If you want to protect Dillen, it would be best to stay as far away from him as possible.”
That again.
I could just let it pass, but I felt somehow unsettled.
It didn’t seem like the simple obsession of telling me not to go to Dillen as before, but rather like words with some deeper meaning.
I couldn’t just let it pass.
“What do you mean by that… Ah!”
When Yurta applied medicine to my foot, a sharp sensation shot up.
Applying medicine without warning! I wasn’t even mentally prepared!
“It hurts!”
“I wonder how you managed to run through that forest non-stop with feet like these.”
“…The treatment is done, so stop it. It stings.”
“How could I not apply medicine when your feet are in this condition?”
He ignored my pained groans and stubbornly applied the medicine.
That heartless bastard!
I curled my toes tightly from the pain, and Yurta chuckled lowly.
“How cute.”
I knew it, but he really is insane.
“You can’t imagine how shocked I was when I heard that Sister had been kidnapped by something white.”
Yurta said while wrapping bandages around my foot.
“That white thing is what made Sister like this, right?”
Having finished wrapping the bandages, he turned his gaze to my wrist where the wound was.
“I thought about what this ‘white thing’ could be, and I heard there’s a transcendent being called the white one.”
How quick-witted.
“The Head of the Holy Knights, who’s said to be the Pope’s faithful dog.”
Since he got the right answer immediately, I couldn’t pretend not to know.
“Did that bastard kidnap Sister?”
“Yes.”
Yurta frowned.
“…How dare he not know his place and touch Sister.”
His voice flowing out angrily was quite murderous.
“Since he made Sister like this, I absolutely won’t let him be.”
“Then what will you do?”
“I’ll tear him apart painfully. I’ll make him wish he was dead.”
“Fine. Do as you please.”
How long do I have to keep up this act?
The other party probably knows that this is nothing more than a ridiculous farce.
However, he clung to me as if this kind of affection was fine even if it was fake.
* * *
Sister.
You should have listened to me.
“Yurta!”
Small hands pounded frantically on the door.
Even as her white hands were torn, the pink-haired girl didn’t seem to notice the pain.
When she was locked in the old warehouse where not a single ray of light entered, Rose fell into a panic.
“Open this door right now!”
However, no matter how much she pounded on the door, the massive door wouldn’t budge.
In the end, Rose, drained of energy, leaned against the door and pleaded.
“Yurta, please open the door.”
“….”
“I have somewhere urgent to go. So please open the door. Please?”
When she spoke in a gentle, coaxing voice while suppressing her anger, a sound came from outside the door.
“Are you thinking of going to the Temple?”
His tone suggested he knew her movements well enough.
“…Yes. I have to go to That Place.”
“Why? Can’t you go next time?”
Yurta asked, but Rose couldn’t answer.
If he knew she was going to meet ‘that child,’ Yurta would surely prevent her from going to the Temple.
“I once followed Sister to the Temple before.”
“….”
“That’s when I saw Sister smile brightly in front of me, a smile I had never seen before.”
What was that supposed to mean.
Rose anxiously bit her lips.
“What exactly made Sister smile like that.”
“….”
“Whatever it is in that Temple.”
Rose couldn’t understand why Yurta was angry.
No, actually she did know.
A child with a strong possessiveness toward her, that was Yurta.
But she couldn’t understand how he could corner her like this over mere selfish emotions.
“It’s none of your business.”
Whatever she did wherever, whatever expression she made, it had nothing to do with him.
“Sister belongs to me.”
“I don’t belong to anyone.”
“No. Sister definitely belongs to me. Even when I treat Sister however I want, Sister can’t even struggle, so you definitely belong to me.”
At those words, Rose was dumbfounded.
“So Sister will have no reason to go to the Temple.”
“What do you…!”
Rose hurriedly pounded on the door.
“Yurta! Yurta!”
She called for him desperately, but no voice could be heard.
Don’t tell me he left?
No! I have to go to the Temple right now. Otherwise, I won’t be able to meet ‘that child’….
“Ha….”
What exactly did I do wrong that he’s arbitrarily locking me up like this.
“…You’re always like this.”
Arbitrarily locking people up, breaking all the things I cherished.
Never once respecting my will and arbitrarily causing trouble.
It was miserable.
My situation where I couldn’t do anything.
I felt like I was about to burst into tears. She sank powerlessly to the floor.
“…I want to go back.”
To my Hometown.
“…I want to go back.”
Everything that was hers was in That Place.
Everything she had built up in her lifetime.
But why am I suffering like this in This Place? Why do I have to endure this?
Why should my actions be restricted for such unreasonable reasons!
While I was sitting there unable to do anything, the door opened roughly.
Bang!
Yurta was standing in front of the door.
“Yurta….”
Don’t tell me he’s letting me go?
“I’ve changed my mind.”
Shadows fell across his face as he tilted it downward.
Rose flinched and trembled at the sight of Yurta’s expression.
She knew what happened when he made that kind of expression.
No, she didn’t know exactly what would happen. But one thing was certain: it would definitely not be good for her.
As she felt anxious, something scattered down in front of her.
“It’s dog food.”
She knew that.
She had seen the dog that Yurta raised eating it.
“If you eat it all, I’ll let you go.”
