“Ggweeeeeeeek!!!!!!!”
A scream poured out from her throat.
It sounded like someone was scraping the bare floor and forcing it to squeeze out.
Tera once again experienced the separation of her reason and body.
With drool dripping from her mouth and a vacant gaze, Tera collapsed on the floor. Having shed so many tears, nothing else could flow from her eyes, and her face was so distorted and crushed from enduring pain beyond its limits that it was hard to look at.
Although there were no special physical injuries besides this, her mind was in tatters from the repeated forced separations.
And…
In her head, there was no longer any capacity for normal thinking left.
The hatred toward the hero who had done this to her, the anger toward this hellish reality she was in,
felt like nothing more than a luxurious emotion for her, who was suffering in the waves of continuous pain.
A sea of despair that ripped apart all will to live and made it impossible to think of anything else.
In this moment, completely captured by that sea,
the only thought she could muster was…
The only thing she could think of was a single word.
– “Kill… me…” –
If only she could, she wanted to plead with the man in front of her.
The extreme pain forced her to wash away all other emotions,
and it awakened in her an intense desire to sincerely apologize to the man in front of her.
Being cowardly or ugly no longer mattered.
She no longer had the luxury or reason to dwell on such trivialities.
The only thing she wished for was to end this endlessly continuing pain, and for that, she thought she could willingly do anything.
She could lick that man’s feet, serve as a slave in battle,
offer her body,
and even if terrible things happened to her, she thought she could do it all with a sincere smile.
“Kill… me… Please… Please, just… stop…!!! I… I… was wrong… Whatever it is… I’ll do anything…!! So please… now… now… just… please… just that…!!!”
Terra continued to plead with countless feelings of regret and repentance in her heart.
However… the embodiment of pain in front of her did not give her a moment to say such words and relentlessly pressed her.
As she lost consciousness in agony, before the pain could disappear, the man reattached it and tore it apart again.
All she could do in that process was to emit a meaningless scream from the bottom of her soul and flail about uselessly.
Thus, Terra twisted her body in anguish, shedding tears of regret and pain.
At that moment…
“!!! Kurhuuuuuh! …Huhuh… Huhuh…”
The man’s onslaught of pain suddenly stopped.
With this, Terra… finally recognized that the words that had been forcibly blocked were now free, and began to earnestly plead in a hoarse, cracked voice toward the man in front of her.
“P-Please… just… I… I was… I was wrong… So please… just… stop… kill… me…”
With desperation and sincerity, Terra expressed her apology with all her strength. And…
Seeing her like this, the man…
who had once been called a Hero but was now seen by Terra as a being like a demon crawling up from the depths of hell, spoke to her in a voice laced with coldness.
“Kill you, you say? Unfortunately, I have no reason to grant you such mercy anymore.”
“P-Please… I beg you… b-but we were… comrades… Gghhuuuuh!!!”
– Crack!
In the next moment, the hero’s foot landed on the back of her hand.
Wearing black steel boots, it shattered Terra’s hand bones and crushed her muscles and flesh.
Simultaneously, a scream of pain erupted from Terra’s mouth.
Tasting the vivid pain felt in her body, different from the mental agony, she could no longer say anything.
And…
As Terra cried out in pain,
the hero spoke to her without a trace of mercy in his voice.
“You still can’t come to your senses, talking about comrades. You don’t think I was unaware of what you were thinking when you tried to approach me, do you?”
“!! Th-That…”
Tera was left speechless by a single word from the hero.
And…
Toward her,
the hero declared in a calm yet chilling voice.
“Playing with people’s hearts and trying to run away to the next world? Unfortunately, you cannot do that. From now on, you have a lot of things you need to do with that body of yours.”
“Wh… What…?”
The hero’s words carried only ominousness and fear. As she heard those words, Terra began to tremble.
The hero started to calmly speak about the fate she would face.
It was none other than…
“!.. N-no…!! Th-that’s..! Please.. not that..!”
A truly horrific story that made Terra, who had given up everything, express her opposition.
However, seeing her resist,
the hero began to smile as if he found it amusing.
“Yeah.. I knew you would say that. So, you mean you’ll do it. To give you the worst pain I can offer!”
The hero’s voice was filled with a terrible joy.
He then slowly rose from his seat, raising the finger adorned with the ring…
“N-no… please… no…”
Watching him, Terra began to desperately try to move her body, which felt paralyzed, and started to let out a voice soaked in despair.
“Nooooo!! Please, just not that Gggggghhhhhh!!”
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
To be honest, and speaking coldly…
I am quite unlucky when it comes to games.
In the past, I had failed to enhance an item with a 30% success rate twenty times in a row.
I have spun countless gacha boxes in games, yet I have never seen a so-called rare item.
I am truly a representation of being completely vulnerable to the whims of probability.
And at this moment…
I regrettably became fully aware once again that I was indeed a truly unlucky guy.
“Ggggggggggghhhhh!!!!”
After countless screams, Terra ended up vomiting blood just from making sounds.
Seeing her like this, I couldn’t help but smirk slightly, realizing my terrible luck.
“No… if I think about it in reverse, maybe I’m actually lucky? Honestly, if it had gone too easily, I might have felt disappointed… ”
I tried hard to think positively, but…
Looking at it coldly, I began to doubt whether that was even possible in a situation like this.
A 3% chance.
At first glance, it seems like a very tight probability, but this figure isn’t that bad for enhancement chances.
While the chance of success each time isn’t very high, if I had done it about thirty times, it meant that there was roughly a 60% chance of succeeding at least once.
However…
Despite that, I had already attempted this more than forty times.
According to the odds, around 70% means I should have succeeded at least once, yet there was still no sign of success.
‘No… maybe it’s not me but her who’s unlucky? Honestly, at this point, it should be about time for things to go smoothly.’
Feeling a bit irritated, I infused magical power into the ring once more…
“!!!! Gg…gggghhhhhh!!!!”
“Huh?”
In the next moment, I suddenly felt something strange.
At the same time, Terra, who had been convulsing on the floor in pain, began to madly clutch her head and thrash about in agony.
In extreme torment unlike anything before, Terra started to twist her body involuntarily.
Seeing her like this…
I automatically recognized what was happening and a bitter smile formed on my lips.
‘Finally succeeded. 46 attempts… I really am a guy who’s terribly unlucky in this regard.’
With that thought, I looked at the sight of Terra screaming in agony before my eyes…
No,
To be precise…
I could no longer use that name.
I quietly bid farewell to the beast that had crossed a river from which there was no return.
‘So… just stay trapped in there and keep watching. Witness the consequences of the betrayal you committed…’
Thank for the chapter!
