I Possessed the Villain in the Lily Novel

68 – Drowning (16)

Half-elves with round ears have always been the target of bullying.

‘Round ears get out of our woods!’

‘You look just like the unbelievers! Horrible!’

Gossip like this always followed her.

Unusual beings are bound to be rejected.

In the plain of the elven forest, her existence was far away.

Ears different from others, eyes that aren’t sharp, hair a purple color that’s the opposite of green in the forest, and skin more apricot than an elf’s.

For those who can reject others with just a little heterogeneity, she was a very good prey.

Even she is a person who actively rebels and shows off her s*xuality, so those who reject her justify her self by saying, ‘That guy was sensitive first’.

This active dislike and rejection was due to the fact that she was on the inferior side among her half-elves.

Majin, a human species that naturally transformed under the influence of demons.

Among the demons, she can use the power of supernatural power, which is rare.

However, this only applies to animal-type demons and beasts.

Elfs transformed by the power of the World Tree can use supernatural powers.

However, she did not develop her special abilities until she was 10 years old.

Compared to that, her older sister was quite excellent. She

Used her abilities freely, and possessed considerable hunting skills among her peers.

‘An idiot who can’t handle a single ability!’

‘Her sister is excellent, but why is her younger brother like that?’

That’s why her position, which didn’t work even with the excuse of ‘half elf’, only diminished day by day.

One day,

Her older sister appeared in front of her with her long, pointed ears cropped short like a normal human.

‘Let’s get out of this place.’

She didn’t rebel much, and she had a lot of questions, but she didn’t ask anything.

The salvation he so longed for came in a rather unsatisfying and extremely passive form.

I ended up leaving the elven forest.

Eva knew this much.

This is the story of Layla, one of the main heroines of the original work. Don’t know

He rolled his eyes at her and saw Lila as she cautiously moved her feet, revealing her nervousness.

You may not be aware of it, but in fact, Layla has an ability.

It is none other than the ability called ‘mental contamination protection’.

It is an ability that protects the mind or memory from being forcibly touched, but the person with the ability cannot control it, and it was impossible to know until he was mentally polluted, so he couldn’t help not knowing.

Since time has passed since Eva didn’t read ‘The Eye Butterfly’, even after she met Lila, she forgot about that ability for some time.

I couldn’t help it either.

It’s a setting that wasn’t used much in the original, but I may have forgotten it for a while.

This is why Layla was not affected by her memory-wiping spell.

Except for a very few, you should not know that I am a demon, and even if you do know, you should forget it. She found out exceptionally.

I couldn’t erase the fact I already knew, so it was natural.

Thanks to that, I became very suspicious of Layla and lost her trust, but what can I do? It’s already past.

“Layla, are you okay? She looks like she can’t walk yet.”

“Okay, that’s fine…! Let’s move on…”

As she said that, she tightened her grip on Eva’s hand. Blood rushed to Eva’s white hands, leaving red marks on them. She was determined not to fall.

Compared to that will, her strength didn’t keep up with her, and her hand, which held her tightly, was trembling.

“…Stubborn. Then I’ll keep going.”

“…Yes.”

Eva knew all about it but pretended not to know.

If you can’t even walk properly because your stamina isn’t keeping up, you’re probably the most saddened.

It is better to move slowly and understand the structure of the devil than to stop in one place. Eva accepted Laila’s insistence and chose to move on.

In order to secure her more firmly, her hands resting on her waist gave more support.

“Wow!”

“Oh, didn’t you like it?”

“Oh, no… I was just surprised. A man’s strength is this strong…”

Layla, who had been beaten by men her age but had never been supported by her, felt a strange reassurance as she felt Eva’s savage power.

“You’re weak. Normally, don’t just ride a broom. Take a walk while walking.”

“It’s better to read one more paper while taking a walk. Because it’s a witch anyway, there’s no aging. And a broom…”

As Lila spoke her words, she remembered how her broomstick had been shattered by being hit by a train.

“…The broom, I can’t ride it anymore. It’s all broken.”

“Is there a story about the broomstick? Why are you so depressed all of a sudden?”

“Sorry…”

“I’m sorry about something else. There are so many things to be sorry about. I thought you were rich in land, but you’re also rich in other things. Okay, talk to me. What’s the matter?”

Iva dared to tell Laila what she already knew.

“That’s… The person who taught me how to ride a broom is my senior. It was also the senior who gave me the broom as a gift when I graduated from apprenticeship.”

Layla still remembers Lilia from that time.

Those who slandered her for having risen to a position she couldn’t afford because of her teacher’s halo, those who coveted her teacher’s legacy, and those who sympathized with her for losing her teacher at a young age, but had a strange sense of superiority.

Lilia, who was confident even among those ugly people.

“…Was really cool. He was both strict and kind, and always complimented me on my achievements.”

It was after that that she began to respect Lilia, who was younger than herself, calling her senior.

People reject others who have different parts from themselves, but sometimes they admire them.

It didn’t take much time for that longing to have a warm and dark color similar to her love.

“Ah, did you fall in love with me from then?”

“Ba, did you fall in love?! Of course, I respect and like you, but such disrespectful feelings…”

“Obviously what?”

Eva giggled and shook her waist. She was a harsh expression, not to be arrogant.

“Kyaa! Hey, be a little kind…”

“What kind of place is this? It’s not inside the body of a hiding demon. What does the devil want? A secret hiding place! Are you doing good to the demon right now?”

“No, I-I didn’t mean to…”

“So, let’s be honest.”

He pulled Lila’s waist and held her a little closer to her own.

Although Lila was taken aback by her sudden approach, she sensed a certain familiarity in this friendly, friendly demeanor.

Somewhere, Lilia came to mind.

Even though she didn’t know her well, she didn’t lose herself, and that dignified attitude everywhere overlapped with the girl she longed for.

“Lilia is a good person. She is a person who is not ashamed to like her. She grumbles, but she does her job and treats morals and ethics with care.”

“! That’s right? Senpai is a very nice person!”

“Okay~ otherwise I wouldn’t have been under him.”

For the first time, Lila felt the joy of sharing the likes of her crush.

Iva gave her a meaningful smile, and in a kind voice like a storyteller telling a child a fairy tale, she unwrapped and handed her one of the bundles of memories stored in the other side of her memory.

“It happened while I was traveling…”

The bundles unpacked like that are one by one. Three, four.

As I crossed the train car, I remembered one or two memories I had.

Leaving out as much as possible the stories related to him, focusing on Lilia’s story.

What kind of memories did you buy by visiting an unusual store that sells people’s happy memories?

How her expression was frowning as she helped her lost child find her parents, what smile she showed after her parents and child met.

Picking flowers from the top of a mountain that he hadn’t been able to get out of his whole life to a person who couldn’t get out of bed because of an illness.

The customer who listens to the story is quite satisfied, and listens to the good part of the person he likes pleasantly.

Looking forward to talking about her doran doran like this, Iba inadvertently brought up her own story as well.

About the beautiful flower fields I saw while traveling. In the flower garden, she somehow felt insignificant, a nonsensical story.

“So I… Oh, I’m sorry. I’m not even talking about Lilia.”

“No. Keep talking.”

Before Lila knew it, she was interested not only in the story, but also in her storyteller.

“Ah, that happened to me too…”

The one-sided reminiscences have changed into a form of sharing each other’s memories.

As Doran and Doran tell each other’s stories, Lila gradually gets to know him better.

The fact that I fight with Lillia more often than I thought.

It sounds like you have a bad mouth, but the fact that you often use lyrical expressions.

He is a person with a softer heart than you think and is easily hurt.

At the same time, he said that he was a person with no regrets.

He is a person who is very capricious and has strong improvisation.

The fact that he is stronger than his slender body.

The fact that my body is stronger than I thought compared to what it looks like on the outside.

However, the fact that his hands are soft.

The fact that the shirt on his back is torn is proof that he took out his wings.

Even though he became a demon, he did not lose his humanity.

Iva and Lila walked inside the existence for concealment, opened up to each other, and understood each other.

At some point, the story went back to the past.

Before she knew it, she even unwrapped the package that was deep in her heart.

A heart as ugly as a piece of rotten fruit, not a box of candy.

Sometimes, there is such a thing. The more friendly you are, the more you can say things that you can’t say and the more you can’t say things that you can’t say.

The fence of the heart is not proportional to the amount of time and affection.

“Actually… I’m too ashamed to be a half-elf myself.”

Also, large teardrops were forming in Lila’s eyes. Although Iba was taken aback by the sudden surge of emotions, she gave her deep comfort.

Couldn’t she have ruined her bright future because of herself? Because that guilt was in my heart.

If it were originally, I would have gradually raised my confidence by carrying out a quest that was moderately difficult and gave me a sense of accomplishment, rather than this damn difficult quest.

I must have gone out more and more to meet Lillia, met many people, and grew up well.

“Because I am neither a human nor an elf, I am a being rejected by all of them. If I was special, I should have been special, but it wasn’t anything… I felt like I had no value.”

Pat Pat. He patted him on the shoulder and sighed down his throat.

While Eva was comforting Layla, she inspected the demon’s inner structure with her own eyes.

A lot of time has passed since we started walking, but the scenery has not changed.

Infinite.

It is an infinite path.

There is no chisel even though I have walked quite a lot. The same structure continues to appear endlessly.

‘Isn’t this how you’ll be trapped here for the rest of your life…?’

Feeling such a sense of danger, I looked at Lila.

Isn’t there really a limit to physical strength now? Her legs were shaking more than before, and she was gradually increasing the weight she was leaning on herself.

Eva carefully moved Lila to her seat.

“…So, maybe that’s why I said that to Mr. Iba. I’d rather become an existence that doesn’t belong to everyone, maybe someone will sympathize with me and take care of me. Wouldn’t it be. He must have had that kind of heart on the side of jealousy.”

Even when she came to her sitting position, she did not let go of her hand that was holding her. Rather than leaning against the wall, she chose to lean against the bar. A person’s body temperature puts the mind at ease.

“I guess that’s why I wanted to become a demon like you.”

If only I could have become a demon.

Her jealousy of Iba wasn’t the only reason she had such an ugly heart.

The madness of wanting to prove one’s worth must have been included in it.

“…I am a man.”

Eva always stubbornly refuted the fact that she was a demon. Oddly enough, when others say such things, she feels that way.

But soon, even that stubbornness felt insignificant, and more than anything else, she felt foolish not to admit the truth in front of a demon who wanted to destroy the world for concealment.

“No, that’s the devil. I’m the devil. A devil with wings.”

She said that with a big smile.

Then,

The white light coming through the window flickered like a woodpecker pecking at a tree, and the red stationery began to tremble like a pebble on a train track.

“What, what?!”

“I don’t know!”

Soon after, the light disappeared.

A piece of paper fell in front of them. It was the only light in this place.

[ ]

It was a humble napkin paper filled only with blanks.

Eva knows the identity of the napkin.

The last letter Morbe threw before the demon descended.

Leeba wrote a letter about what he wanted to hide, and it fell in front of them with a blank.
