Somehow, The Villainess Who Regressed in Time Lost Her Magic Power, so She Turned into a Secluded Maiden - 145 2 ‐ 27
Since I came here, I may have misunderstood because Nell, the spirit king, is too cheaply involved.
It is true that the appearance is similar to that of people, and the behavior is a familiar atmosphere with a little childhood, so I forgot that it is important. – The Spirit. However, the Spirit King is an alien existence that can change the world and revive people.
Sometimes they are merciful, sometimes they are merciless.
When I was alone in the room, I thought about it in a blur.
─ ─ Gacha raised his face to the sound of the door opening. However, the surroundings were already surrounded by pitch-dark night darkness.
At that time, I finally realized that I was at night while thinking about sitting on the bed in the room.
Excuse me, this room is dark.
“You are… a black horse.”
The voice belonged to the Black Horse Spirit. With a voice that slightly contained the surprise of the black horse, the surrounding magic stone lamps were lit up in orange.
Oh, the king told me to wait and see, because I didn’t come out of my room.
“… I’m sorry. I was thinking about it a little bit.”
”No, I don’t mind either. I’m not interested.”
The Black Horse Spirit stared right at me.
I see. Unusually, if you think the king has been thinking about it for a while, what happened to him?
“No… I’m just thinking about it on my own.”
I don’t know about that…. after all, the king is still young as the king of spirits. ”
Is that so?
Oh, it’s only been about 200 years since I was born.
“And two hundred? That’s, uh… young as a spirit…”
“Ah. I can still feel the childliness from my point of view. That’s why I can’t control my interest in people. It was the king’s first favorite toy.”
“Is this a toy…?”
The Dark King is curious and dislikes boredom. From a young age the king was born a king. It was different from ordinary spirits. Not to mention, for the king, the lives of men and bugs are equal. There is no point in dying. It has nothing to do with me. ”
The words made Zukin and his chest shudder. It was something I knew, but when I was told in direct words, I felt a great distance between the Spirit and the human, as I had thought earlier.
”However, the king seemed to like it even more. That’s… no, I’m starting to want to know more about humans, including that one.”
“Are you… looking for a human?” But Master Nell was originally interested in humans. ”
“Oh, the behavior of people is full of contradictions and lacks rationality. Emotions are all over the place. That’s probably why it was fun to see what actions to take in adversity. But now I’m starting to see beyond that.”
“Beyond that?” What the hell is that supposed to mean? What triggers you? ”
‘Ask the king himself. I’m only here because the king told me to. ”
The words reminded me of the last time I saw Nelle-sama. I was bothered by how he looked like a child and how to deal with it the next time I see him.
“Apparently, the King was disappointed that the thought that he was trying to change his mood appeared in the back of his eyes. Then, his temper entered the outside air. That’s why he said he had prepared a special gift for you.”
Is it a gift?
At that time, I felt the warmth from my right hand and raised my hand in front of my face. There is a ring that I don’t remember putting on my middle finger. And there was a purple magic stone on the pedestal.
From the magic stone to the door, the light stretched in a straight line.
“Is this a magic stone?” This light… what do you mean? ”
Even if you move your right hand to the left or right, the light from the ring continues to point at the door while changing direction.
“Take this stone and proceed as directed by the light.” That way, there will be a gift ahead of you. ”
Having said that, the black horse pushed my back with its head in bewilderment. With that momentum, he moved his tangled leg forward and walked out of the door of the room into the hallway.
The mansion at night is silent. Nevertheless, the lamps lit up everywhere in the hallway and the signs of the spirits that I sometimes felt reassured me.
However, as I gradually moved further into the light, I felt uncomfortable.
– What do you mean? This is the same route that Nell brought you here today? So, if you follow this light…
Go down the long, long staircase with the light showing. It was definitely the only place I was taken by Nell during the day.
“This should have been a place that Nell-sama could not have let in.” But the light is pointing here, isn’t it?… I wonder if it’s okay. ”
When I put my hand on the terrifying door, it opened so easily.
After stepping into the sky, there was a beautiful scene like the starry sky.
Just like what I felt at noon, when I came here, I was relieved that I was naturally tense for some reason. It even feels strange as if you’re welcome.
–The Black Horse Spirit said there was a gift before the light.
What exactly is a gift referring to? Contrary to my questioning, the light of the ring flashed from the moment I entered this room.
Shall we proceed this way?
As I asked for a ring that illuminated the path as it flashed, and as I walked, a light approached me.
The light resonated with the ring, flying around me with a strong blue light.
I wonder if this light is the light I saw during the day.
In my words, the blue light began to circle around me.
“A world out of my league…” I wonder if your world will eventually disappear. I miss you, don’t I? ”
As I remembered Nell’s words, I reached out to the blue light and it came to comfort me.
From the light that touched my cheeks, I felt the tingling, softness and warmth, and it conveyed a sense of cuteness that made me want to cry asexually for some reason.
– I wonder why. Nell said she didn’t want this light, but it seems to me that it does. On the contrary, I feel nostalgia that I have known for some reason for a long time. It was as if my mother was holding me in her arms.
“What the hell are you…”
At that time, the light of the ring changes from purple to blue, integrating with the blue light in front of you, and a huge vortex of light winding up with the wind.
What, what?
Glare and intense wind inadvertently winked. But then, in the roar of the blowing wind, I heard a slight call to my name.
“…… Le…… Shell…… Rachel”
–A voice calling my name… This voice… I know it.
No way…!
It can’t be. After all, he still keeps his eyelids closed tightly without waking up. Still, I can’t mishear that person’s voice.
Grasping her trembling hand, she opened her eyes slowly.
Then, that person, who was always sharp and dependable, lowered his eyebrows and called my name desperately with a face that was about to cry.
