41 – I will live only looking at you

A black light can be seen spinning fiercely above the black magic circle.

Looking through my celestial eye, the circuit of the magic circle is being reorganized. Caroline’s magic is accepting me as the new owner of the magic doll.

“I make a vow to you.”

In the meantime, a resolute voice is heard.

The gaze goes down.

“My body and mind have become yours alone.”

It became yours alone.

This is truly a good thing to hear. But this is also what I didn’t want to hear.

“Give me an order…”

Seiji, who was on her knees, was asking me with her eyes shining. Ask him to give orders to himself, the magic doll.

“Sage, you and I were connected according to Caroline’s will. As long as this magic circle exists in your mind, you, a magic doll, will have to live your whole life carrying out my commands.”

“That’s right.”

“I will ask. “What was the mission you were carrying out so far?”

“Take care of and protect your family…”

“Not that one.”

As soon as I woke up, Seiji lifted his head, his light blue hair flowing.

“It was a command not to have emotions.”

“Okay. Then···.”

I looked straight at Seiji and continued speaking in a serious tone.

“Abolish that order. “This is my first name.”

“···.”

“It means to have emotions.”

Then, Seiji hesitated and tried to say something.

“But I am a magician…”

“Start with the answer.”

I firmly interrupted the conversation and demanded an answer.

Seiji responded by lowering his head and pressing the hem of his pants.

“···I accept your orders.”

“This is the second person.”

I mumbled and squatted down in front of Seiji. Then, he looked straight into Seiji’s pitch-black eyes and opened his lips.

“From now on, exist as a person, not a magic doll.”

“It means learn how to feel and live by doing what you want to do.”

“If you don’t know what emotions are, learn by hanging out with people. If you don’t know what you want to do, find it anyway. “This is my second name.”

After giving that command, I adjusted my mask again, just in case.

There was nothing wrong. The mask was completely adhered to the face, and the magic power radiating from the mask was also effective.

It was fortunate. With this, Seiji, who doesn’t know who I am, will no longer have to live blindly looking at someone else in the future.

“I will obey your orders.”

Seiji raised his head and answered with a determined expression.

It’s a good look from the owner’s point of view. Those eyes are those that say they will do anything for me.

“Keuhum…”

At that moment, Seiji’s monologue in the game came to mind, so I cleared my throat and turned my head for a moment.

-‘If it were for you, I would be willing to do something like XX or XXX right here and now…’

I still have doubts. What on earth were going through the minds of these developers to insert such a monologue into such a serious situation?

“Master… No, master?”

I was admitting to myself that these guys were terrible, but Seiji called me out in a hesitant tone.

“Say it.”

“Well, I haven’t seen your face yet, Lord.”

Sage looked at my mask and muttered.

Judging from the way he was wriggling his fingers, he seemed curious about my face, but I guess he was cautious about speaking since he was his master.

‘Not bad.’

I can’t believe that just by giving one command, people change so much.

I answered, looking happily at Seiji, who had become a little more human.

“You don’t have to know.”

“But a magic doll that doesn’t know its owner’s face…”

“What did I say earlier?”

“Live as a person, not a magic doll…”

“Okay. So you don’t have to know. Not just now, but always in the future. And.”

This is a good ending. After thinking that, I continued speaking.

“I don’t want my existence to be known to anyone but you.”

“···I understand.”

“Okay. I trust you understood well, so let’s go first. “You can come out later.”

After finishing speaking, I turned around and started walking.

Feeling that the recoil, which is the reward for deceiving the balance and using a much greater amount of mana than the limits of the body, is coming much stronger than expected.

And.

****

I had to just look at your back.

In this place where the darkness is still deep, I kneel down and place my hand on the spot where your warm hand left.

My heart is pounding as if it will explode.

I have a slight fever, and hot breath is coming out when I breathe.

I feel strange. But, I still don’t know what this feeling feels like.

I really don’t know, but I guess this is also one of the emotions that we need to learn as you mentioned.

Ah, I think I know just one thing.

At least my heart feels so empty.

You who taught me emptiness gave me a command.

Have feelings,

Live as a human being.

I will follow your orders. I will learn emotions and live as a human being, as you commanded.

But I’m not sure.

Will I be able to properly learn and have emotions?

Will I be able to live like a human?

I think it will take some time.

But I promise.

I will carry out your orders properly.

My body and mind are yours alone, and I will do whatever you want.

So, as you wish, I will not reveal your existence to anyone.

I am smart, so I will make sure to follow up.

Also, I will pretend not to know.

Of course, the mask you were wearing was a great artifact.

Not even that artifact could hide your sweet body odor.

Actually, the reason I looked at your mask wasn’t because I didn’t know your face.

I just wanted to see your face in person at that moment.

The owner of my body and mind, my master.

Carmel, your face.

I remember your body odor.

I remember your name.

I remember your sincerity.

This is not because of your command, but purely my will.

I, Seiji, make a vow.

You left behind, opening up my previously closed destiny.

Camel.

I will live my life looking only at you.

“Hibb.”

Daisy stuck her head out, trying to control her trembling heart.

What was visible was the entrance to a space connected to an unknown black world.

‘I followed you for no reason…’

Daisy patted her head and blamed herself.

In fact, the culprit of this situation was Rachel.

Rachel threw all sorts of tantrums at Carmel, and Daisy, who knew what a scary person Carmel was, desperately tried to stop Rachel.

Nevertheless, Rachel became more harsh, and Camel eventually…

“Hibb.”

I swung my sword without hesitation. Daisy, remembering that moment, hiccuped reflexively.

-“You’re whining so loudly.”

Daisy remembered. Those fierce red eyes that seem to set everything on fire, but feel infinitely cold.

Daisy was afraid. I’m afraid that Carmel might have bad feelings toward Rachel.

It was quite obvious that if Carmel had swung his sword at Rachel as carelessly as he did at the Chaos believer, Rachel’s face would have rolled on the floor.

‘I just came to stop you…’

Daisy had hoped that such a terrible thing would not happen.

That’s why she came all the way here, chasing after Camel. She wanted to appease Carmel’s heart.

No matter how cold-hearted Carmel is, as long as the author is a man, she is the prettiest girl in the world. If you talk about her cutely, you will be able to prevent her from having bad feelings.

Thinking like that.

But her man’s steps were very fast.

Even though she followed with all her might, the distance between her and her man gradually increased.

In the meantime, Daisy saw several children lying unconscious.

And she felt. That mental magic is spread everywhere.

‘If it weren’t for this…’

Daisy thought as she played with the artifact hanging around his neck.

If it weren’t for the necklace his father gave him, he would have lost his mind like those before without any resistance.

‘I feel stupid…’

Daisy cried again, blaming her legs for not moving.

She deserved it. What she saw after following the man’s traces was that hideous black space.

In fact, Daisy, who was scared, tried to retrace his steps right away.

To immediately inform the professor that something is happening.

But.

-“What are you doing here?”

Before she knew it, she couldn’t because of the girl who was standing next to her and smiling.

-“Ah, she is the porter’s daughter. It’s a shame.”

The girl knew her own father.

– “Actually, if you answered that, she was going to immediately rip her head out. But are you an acquaintance? hehehe.”

She even tried to kill herself.

-“I’ll take care of it, so don’t brag about it. “Okay?”

After saying that, the girl entered the black space.

‘I am…’

Daisy felt so miserable about herself.

She tried to change her destiny,

In order to do that, to become stronger than the hero,

She tried so hard, but she ended up like this.

She was blaming herself.

“···?”

In Daisy’s field of vision, she saw a man wearing a mask walking out of the black space.

“Inhale…”

Daisy continued to watch as he hurriedly covered his mouth, fearing that he might hiccup.

Her man puts his hand on her mask. She seems to be taking off her mask.

“Uh…”

Daisy made a dumbfounded noise as she watched her man stumble.

Even though her man stumbled, she continued to walk somewhere.

The destination was the place where the children who had collapsed earlier were.

“···!”

Daisy saw it.

Her man took off her mask, placed it in his arms, and closed her eyes.

*****

When I open my eyes, I see an unfamiliar ceiling.

Ah, isn’t it unfamiliar? Because this isn’t the first ceiling I’ve seen.

The next thing you see is cloudy smoke.

“Oh, Mr. Caramel.”

A trembling voice is heard.

“It seems like you come here often these days.”

“···Sure.”

When I turn my head, I see Lily with light purple hair and a complexion that looks particularly worn out today.

As he looked at that, he felt sorry.

Someday, this favor will definitely be repaid.

After making that promise, I quickly got up and asked Lily.

“How long have I been here?”

It was not the time to be like this.
