I Possessed the Villain in the Lily Novel

67 – Drowning (15)

The elven forest is always surrounded by rumors.

Since the development of civilization, if there is a deep sea underground as the most unexplored place. There is an elven forest on the ground.

It was because of his unique conservative tendencies.

I don’t carelessly let in strangers, and the elves themselves don’t go out if possible.

Most elves arrange marriages with childhood friends they have known since childhood.

Elves are less prone to minor illnesses and do not develop genetic diseases, so if there is no specific marriage partner, they will try to marry incestuously.

Of course, there is also the option of not getting married, and there are not a few people who have maintained their chastity without going out once during their long lifespan.

In that dense forest, where there is neither inflow from the outside nor outflow from the inside.

The existence of sisters with half pure human blood and half pure elf blood was quite unusual.

Among them, the purple younger brother, who did not inherit a single elf trait,

I was a child who could always exist only behind someone’s back and had to be hidden.

“Uh… Um…?”

Lila pushed up her twitching eyebrows, letting her eyes out into the world.

The scenery in front of my eyes was not the coldness of the blue sea, but the interior of an artificial space that was cozy and creepy.

The red seats lined up like an army row. The color of those seats and the color of the walls and aisles are completely indistinguishable. The lights were shining with a soft orange light. Even the window where white light comes in but no information outside can be seen, the scenery is not reflected.

It was a familiar yet bizarre sight, and a feeling of disgust burned up Layla’s spine as the familiar place diverged from her memory.

“This is… Where…? More than that, I…”

Lila recalled her throbbing head, the situation she was in before she lost consciousness.

‘I’ve been struggling in the river until just now…’

At the time I was thinking about that, I drew a conclusion by combining this strange red space with past experiences.

“…Hey, is this hell?!”

“Yes, this is Hell. Welcome.”

At Layla’s self-talk, Eva answered calmly.

“Here’s a demon right in front of you. Whoa. Hell, right?”

Eva humorously raised her hands, waved them at Lila and giggled mischievously.

“It wasn’t hell…”

“That’s no fun. Just pretend to believe me.”

With Eva’s mischievous attitude, Layla realized that she was still alive.

I feel irritated, relieved, and guilty looking at him. These are all emotions that prove life.

Above all, the fact that the fuss he was just shivering with was shown to someone (even that the opponent was Iba) was enough to raise his sense of shame. I felt the heat build up on her face. This too was proof of life.

Layla looked around again.

The focus, which had been blurry due to the hazy wind of consciousness until now, found its place and began to explore the surroundings again.

Her senses were sharper than before, and she checked the texture of the seat she was lying on. It’s hard rather than soft, but it doesn’t feel sturdy like wood.

In the feel of the seat she groped with her hand, she felt a strange feeling here and there. Looking closely, I could see some lines that were awkward for cracks, but stood out even for patterns.

It was like a sculpture made by splicing together pieces of paper.

“It’s the devil’s inside.”

Iva explained this strange space as if it were not a big deal.

About the identity of this unpleasantness, like a work of art created by an artist with bad taste.

“…Yes?”

“Here. Inside the devil.”

Taktak. Eva knocked on the floor a couple of times. Lila looked at the floor as the sound prompted. Is it because I heard something like that? Continued the story.

“It was here when I picked you up who was dying while growling in the water. I was definitely planning on crawling to the ground, but there are all sorts of strange things.”

With Eva’s words, Lila recalled other sights she had seen before she lost consciousness.

A huge train that drowned itself in water.

And the bloody wings, which seemed to be whitish as they floundered in the water after the train passed by.

A wing that was pious like a branch of a giant tree and distant like someone’s bloodline.

Layla quickly realized that the owner of the wing was Eva.

Also, the fact that he was the one who saved himself from drowning, right away.

“You know the train that ran at you? It’s actually a demon? I think it got inside him.”

Iva told Lila about the current situation, who was staring at her in a daze.

Quoting what Morbei explained, he explained the reason for the sudden descent of this train demon, the demon of concealment.

He used the legend to hide his secrets by floating letters on the river, and summoned the devil.

The city’s representative means of transportation, legends, and emotions were gathered together and sublimated into a single concept.

It was announced that this idea soon appeared as the beast of destruction called the hidden demon.

“Oh, the whole reason I know this is because that b*tch Morbe was a jerk. Got it? Again, don’t be suspicious? It’s real.”

Iba didn’t want to be misunderstood, so she added an excuse.

I still have doubts about why he bothered to spread such a fact.

Do you have a self-exaggerating personality? Is it his tendency to want someone to recognize his achievements? Probably.

Even though it is said to be a madman, in the end, it is a madness based on people.

Everyone has a need for recognition.

“Anyway, that’s it. There’s a crazy rain train whizzing around the city, and we’re in it.”

For a devil, he’s quite docile. Rain flooding the ground, how eco-friendly and healthy it is.

I’m glad I didn’t try to stealth (physical) as the train swept through the city.

Of course, the current situation is also serious.

The rain won’t stop until this train stops, and if that happens, Whitrum will become an in-water city rather than a city on water, a collection of human technologies.

The city is infested with monsters, so you can’t even try to escape. Even if you try to operate a train or a ship, it’s a waste to operate properly as long as this devil runs rampant.

Attempts to forcibly stop or destroy the train have already been made once.

I tried using magic based on the vast amount of mana I gained from spreading my wings, but even split the train in half and it quickly repaired itself. The process of restoration was so fast that it was almost mistaken that it had not worked at all.

“…Well, it would have happened if you hadn’t gone to the river. Don’t mind it too much.”

Iva leaned into the seat, which boasted a comfortable ride without any rattle, and examined Layla’s expression.

It’s probably because he went to the river and fell into the illusion that the devil had descended.

I have already conveyed that the act of floating a letter with a secret written on it invites the devil, but it is inevitable that the words will be distorted according to people’s hearts.

Actually, that wasn’t what Lila was concerned about.

Lila continued to examine Eva’s complexion, thinking about when she would express her gratitude and apology.

“It’s all bad because Morbe is that b*tch.”

With a whoosh, Eva rose from her seat.

It’s a bit pitiful for Lila, who just came to her senses. Now she has to take action. She can only speculate on the situation outside herself, as she does not have a fire.

As if it was not wrong to say that letters form the body, the inside of the hidden demon, which was a perfectly fine cast-iron train on the outside, looked like it was made of letters glued together.

Lila realized that the cracks she felt earlier were all stories someone wanted to hide.

She swept over her chair once more, and gently raised her body from her bed. Eva glanced at her, then turned her gaze back out of her window.

Her brows were frowned upon and she was in anguish, for some reason she looked like Lilia.

“Hey, hey!”

Layla called for Eva. Her Eva turned her head towards her without saying a word from her.

“I, that…”

As soon as her eyes met his, Lila bowed her head.

“Thank you for saving me!”

Layla spat that out and was quickly eaten up by regret. The clumsy surroundings got in the way of this important thanks.

She could have had better words, but a prettier and more polite way to express her feelings.

The thought came to her mind, but she couldn’t contain her words anymore.

Gratitude for her life was shorter and simpler than Layla could have imagined.

Lila lowered her head, and she did not move for a moment. A cold silence resounded inside the red devil.

Soon, a voice colder than silence reached her ears.

“Hey.”

‘…Failed.’

Yes, I would have done the same.

It must have been an insignificant and insignificant thank you for the effort you put in.

Layla felt as if she was about to shed tears at her sense of shame.

She raised her head as he called.

Perfect!

“Ah!”

A sharp pain fell on his forehead. After making a loop with her hands, she used the elasticity to launch a bouncing, so-called bonfire.

“Be careful next time? Look around you. Huh? My heart trembled.”

Iva still remembers her scene on the river in Layla. In fact, when she got hit by the train, she thought it was already too late.

If it wasn’t for her enhanced eyesight after she got this body of hers, she wouldn’t have noticed that when Lila got hit by her train, she didn’t have a drop of blood.

Eva smiled with a single smile, as if she liked the intense sound of the night.

Lila, as if possessed by that laugh, continued to say what she wanted to say.

“…Ah! That, and, for my rude words before… I’m really, really sorry.”

“Did you still care about that? You already apologized. Never mind.”

Eva laughed hahahaha and waved her hand. It was a sign of her intention not to care.

She was angry at the time she heard that, of course. She almost lost her hand.

But that’s in the past now.

He has already received an apology, but he is not sharp enough to tease someone who has just gone through a difficult time.

“…Why? I think that comment was really rude…”

“You apologized for being rude. That’s it.”

‘If you’re done with what you want to say, think about how to escape from this demon. I’m ignorant, so I’m not sure about this.’ After Eva said that, he looked around the room.

By knocking on the wall and touching the ceiling, I learned about the structure.

Actually, I did it once before Lila woke up, but I’m doing it again because I’m embarrassed again.

While Eva did such a simple act, Lila’s mind grew more complex.

Eva’s consideration (actually, she wasn’t even caring) spread like poison in her heart.

A good person.

A good person, rare in this era.

A person who does not lose recognition even in such a terrible situation and jumps out of his/her body for the sake of others.

Only a person like that can stand next to you.

It wasn’t that I was able to become a good person because I was by my senior’s side, but because I was a good person, I was able to become a good person’s side.

I would rather have scolded and slandered me.

Then I could have hated you.

In that case, I wouldn’t have had to realize my insignificance. I wouldn’t have had to feel so desperately about my smallness.

A sense of shame spreads pain like an old thorn in the heart.

“Hey, that can’t be done. Staying here won’t solve the problem. Let’s collect clues while moving.”

“Oh, heh!”

The answer bit her tongue and staggered as she tried to get herself up. Her body, which was on the verge of drowning, was not allowed to be operated carelessly.

“Oh, that’s dangerous.”

Holding her hand of her staggered Lila and wrapping her other hand around her waist, Eva succeeded in supporting her.

“…I’m sorry. I just wanted to move.”

“Oh, no, I was wrong…”

The shame that came from the fact that she couldn’t control her body properly made her face red.

“I’m sorry, but can I move like this until I can control my body?”

Today too, Lila could not be proud of herself.

From the elven forest to today.

The round-eared half-elf walked down the red hallway with a face stained red.
