Chapter 125.2

“Poor you. You must not feel sorry for your twin brother, Allen.”

“That’s… That’s it! It’s because of you that Harris became this way. Don’t you feel sorry?”

I tried to hold back my laughter for a moment. What was so sad about it?

“Don’t you think that saying such a thing would make the other person more pitiful?”

“…Wow, that’s ridiculous.”

“Is that what Harris wants? Being pitied? How long will the compassion last?”

I’ve lived worse than anyone else, but I didn’t want to be sympathetic to anyone. It was good when I first received sympathy, but I was often branded as a poor child in the end; a poor kid.

I was more eager to talk about those unfortunate things behind me. Having already died several times in the past and even being used for experiments, I became such a pitiful child.

Because of that, what Lexit was doing didn’t look so good.

“…What do you know?”

Harris, who had been hiding behind Lexit the whole time, finally couldn’t stand it and screamed out loud.

“I don’t know. What do I know about you? But I’m curious Harris, do you want a lot of sympathy? Then go ahead and say so. Ask for sympathy because you’re a poor person.”

“Is pity a bad thing?”

“No.”

But I would feel sorry for being trapped in sympathy.

“I’m annoyed!”

“If you are that proud, pitiful and unhappy person, go and say so.”

“I am proud! There’s nothing I can’t not be proud of. I was really, really unlucky. Do you think I can do that?”

Hiding behind him the whole time, Harris was furious at my words and trudged to the knights. Of course, Lexit grabbed Harris’s arm in a hurry.

“Harris…”

“Don’t stop me! Why should I hide? I’m a victim, too. You know how I lived!”

“But this is not the time.”

I’ve always thought Lexit was being used every time I saw them, but I guess not. Looking at Lexit block Harris, who was clamoring to reveal everything, I began to wonder if it was Harris being used, not Lexit.

“Don’t stop me!”

Because of Lexit, who held onto her until the end, Harris screamed and the air turned heavy for a moment. As if in vain, things like black earthworms trickled out of Harris’s body.

I quickly changed my posture because of what happened. Of course, Allen blocked me faster than that.

“What… you…”

“Ah.”

Allen’s voice, which sounded different to what I was used to, caught Harris’s ears.

“…What?”

“You have that power… no… it’s weird. I think I’ve said this before.”

After looking at Allen, who was tilting his head, he moved his  head. It was Theo who made eye contact through the gap between the knights, who were at a loss. Theo, who held his hands on his waist as if he was going to draw out a knife, made a grim expression and quickly approached Harris.

“If you’re ready, I’ll take you.”

“How funny.”

Before Lexit could say anything, Theo held Harris in his arms. Finally, Harris’s eyes turned round, perhaps because she felt something strange.

“Now, wait. What are you doing?”

“I’m going to hold you and take you with me so it’ll be hard for you to escape. I’m faster than you think, so I’ll get to His Highness soon.”

At this time, Theo was already running. He ran and ran as if there was no other chance other than this time.

“Wait!”

Lexit followed in a hurry, but he couldn’t have caught up with Theo. Theo was a very fast person. Even the other knights ran along with Theo, and before I knew it, they disappeared.

I could hear Lexit’s voice saying stop, but they went away just like that.

The busy hallways had just become quiet.

“Bebe.”

“Yes?”

“I have a headache. Ah, it would be nice if Bebe patted me.”

I slowly turned my head and looked at my cold brother. My brother staggered and put his head on my shoulder.

“It hurts.”

“Brother.”

“Ugh.”

“I think you’re faking it. I’ll go.”

“No!”

My brother shook his head, but no matter how I looked at it, it was clear that he was faking it. His face looked much better than before, and his voice sounded normal.

“No… I think I’m sick… or dizzy.”

“That’s because you sleep too much.”

“Is that so?”

“Besides, I had to follow someone who kept following me.”

“Huh?”
