The Engagement Was Broken Off and I Became a Munchkin - Chapter 57



Episode 57 Warlock (15)

This is not a normal space.

That was the feeling I felt as I squeezed Helena’s neck.

And I intuitively knew that the key to getting out of this place was this woman.

“What is it? Here. And you.”

I asked, pressing her face right in front of her eyes.

Something is blocking my memory.

I can’t remember anything except fragmentary knowledge.

I couldn’t remember exactly what I was doing outside.

“… I do not know.”

Helena couldn’t make eye contact with me.

Your ears are constantly prickling.

“That’s a lie.”

“…… “

Could it be that your ears tremble when you lie?

I remember reading in a book that elves were a race that couldn’t lie.

‘… I remember this.’

When did you read that book?

I remember when I was young.

However, I had no memory of where I had read the book.

“…… “

Anyway. She is lying

She went back to the beginning and remembered what she had done to me.

‘I told you to obey me.’

She almost heard it right away.

Her beautiful appearance and friendliness and respect for this nanny tried to force my actions.

A type of magic that manipulates the mind.

There was no sign of magic, though.

Since then, she must have been surprised by my behavior, judging from the disappointment on her face.

“… Let’s talk about this.”

Only now did she feign her composure and demand of me.

My hand was gripping her slender neck, and with a little effort I could have stopped her breathing.

‘Does killing really kill you?’

I didn’t think so.

That was also inferred from Helena’s reaction.

Because her reaction was a bit flat to feel the fear of death.

But when she recalled her frustration, it seemed clear that she had a penalty.

Then you should use it.

“If you answer me truthfully, I will let you go.”

“… Tell me.”

One key thing.

“Looks like someone has to admit defeat in order to get out, right?”

“… Yes.”

She didn’t want to answer, but she couldn’t answer.

She seemed to think that I would notice her reaction even if she didn’t answer.

“As expected.”

It was inferred from what Helena did to me in the beginning.

Not only that, but I was able to find out for reasons that are difficult to describe.

A match here affects not only this space, but also reality.

Then, what was the relationship between me and this woman outside?

‘They weren’t on good terms.’

Then what I have to do comes down to one thing.

To elicit voluntary consent for her to become a slave.

It didn’t look easy.

“… Keep your promise. I have answered you.”

“Good.”

Now I have some certainty.

Even if you kill her here, you don’t really die.

Then, what happens when you die, so why are you afraid of it?

I squeezed her hand around her neck and crushed her neck bones.

Awesome.

I decided to kill her neatly as it was not my purpose to cause her pain.

She twisted her face as if she felt her pain, but that moment didn’t last long.

A limp corpse.

The body disappeared without a trace in an instant.

As the light emanating from her body disappeared, it was difficult to distinguish even an inch in front of her, and the darkness came.

A memory that I didn’t know came to mind.

‘… A floating island.’

Before I came here, I entered a floating island floating in the sky.

I was accompanied by two beautiful women,

Their names are…

‘… I don’t remember.’

I also couldn’t remember why I went to the floating island.

I think there was a very important reason, but what was it?

‘… If I kill Helena, will my memory come back?’

Anyway, that seemed right.

Then, did Helena know that and show her dismay?

She might have been in the dark for some time.

Tagak-. Again-.

Once again, there was the sound of footsteps echoing through the dark space.

The sound came closer and closer to me.

‘… Helena.’

As expected, she didn’t die.

Also, only she was still shining brightly in this space.

She approached me right in front of her nose before I knew it.

“My name is Helena.”

It was a reenactment of what had just happened.

Judging by her behavior and expression,

‘I can’t believe I can’t remember.’

I think so.

It wasn’t something he would have done if he knew I killed him.

The moment I realized that, my body was rapidly digging into her arms.

With her will to subdue her.

“Oh… !”

But this time she reacted.

It was a quick backstep while cutting my hand with embarrassment.

Unlike the first time, it seems that he was on guard.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

She showed agile movements that gave off a well-trained appearance, but

Because I instantly came up with dozens of her patterns on how to subdue her.

‘I’m quite used to using my body.’

Following her steps, I deflected her fist effortlessly,

Chin—-.

When I hit her leg, her center of gravity shifted and she fell over.

I immediately pressed her right leg with her weight on her stomach,

Her other hand cupped her neck as she deflected the attack with her elbow.

“You… you… !”

As she fell to the floor, Helena gave her a ferocious look.

Her If there’s one thing I felt while subduing her, Helena wasn’t good at hand-to-hand combat.

“What the hell… why?”

“Isn’t it strange that you don’t get enchanted?”

Enchanted. Either that or hypnosis.

Judging from her reactions, I think something like that was hanging on me.

Actually, I’m feeling repulsed by the actions I’m taking now.

The reluctance to treat someone as beautiful as her so carelessly.

But, again, I felt that kind of rejection was foreign, so I was clearly aware that she had done some tricks to me.

“… Why are you persecuting me?”

Helena showed a new look this time.

She was able to have some free time to ponder the situation in her yard that overpowered her.

If we infer based on her behavior,

She forgot what happened here upon her death.

‘On the contrary, I recalled a memory outside.’

In that case, on the other hand, she might have forgotten a memory of the outside world.

Secondly, there was one more thing that made me wonder.

“Why are you telling me your name?”

She gave me her name both in her first and in her second. She

She didn’t think she would do that for no reason,

“Is it like a necessary condition for obtaining obedience?”

From noble mtl dot com

“… What do you mean?”

Helena’s ears perked up seriously.

Since he was clearly watching her, it was a bonus to sneak avert his eyes.

Maybe she really can’t lie.

No, I can hit, but when I look into her eyes while I hit, her body becomes candid.

I’m not sure, but it seemed like I could verify it by killing her several times in the future.

In summary,

Killing Helena brings back my memories… Helena’s memories are likely to disappear one by one.

Somehow this seemed right.

That way, Helena’s frustration before her death was right in her mouth.

I’m going to check if my hypothesis is correct.

There was no risk to me anyway.

As I did before, the first step is to ask Helena a question.

“Yes, Helena. I don’t know where this is… If you answer one of my questions, I will release my hand from your neck.”

“… How can I believe you?”

“If you don’t believe me, I have no choice but to kill you.”

At my words, she looked into my eyes as if trying to gauge her authenticity.

I was so caught up in her charm that I couldn’t help but look so beautiful and pitiful.

To the point where I wonder if I should let go of the girl who held her down even now.

‘… You’re crazy.’

At the same time, the uncomfortable feeling grew.

It was said that Helena forced me to feel this way, and I had no idea that her intentions would be docile.

“…… Good. Tell me.”

After much thought, Helena seems to have decided to ask one question.

‘If I die, the penalty must be considerable.’

If it weren’t for that, there’d be no way they’d come out so cooperatively.

I really might forget the memories one by one.

My plan was simple.

Obtaining information while killing Helena, whose memories are reset.

Also to observe the changes that appear in her as her death repeatedly.

Ultimately,

‘To have her voluntarily obey me.’

She was able to get out of here only when one of the barons she answered first had to admit her defeat, and she could infer from her actions that defeat was voluntary obedience.

Of course I can’t be her slave, so I’ll make her her slave.

‘… To be honest, I also covet it.’

It was quite pleasant to imagine that a beauty like her would follow my orders all her life.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m like that, or if it’s because I’m under an unknown spell.

Her questions to make her her slave.

“What do you do best?”

“What? Is that a question?”

Helena asked me back as if she was just asking such a question.

Actually, any question would be fine.

If my hypothesis is correct, she will lose her memories one by one, and soon our relationship here will be reversed.

“Yes. If you answer that, I will let go of your hand.”

It wasn’t a lie.

I was thinking of letting her go by killing her once more.
