Even Death Was Taken Away by That Obsession - Chapter 0
Have you ever seen something worse than a villain?
If I were to explain what I’ve experienced and seen if I were to tell you about the cruel things I’ve endured, would you believe me?
What should I call that beautiful monster who became evil, beyond just being a villain?
If you were to meet that villain…….
Could you be any different from me?

“You’ve died again.”
You murmured, gazing down at me intently.
Then, gently stroking my head, you smiled sweetly with your blood-red eyes.
“How many more times before you give up? When will you realize that you can never truly die?”
“…….”
“Well…… It’s okay. I still love you, after all.”
“…….”
“I love you. I mean it.”
Even at this moment, you’re terribly affectionate.
But I know. This is absolutely not love.
If you had loved me, you wouldn’t have turned me into a monster who can’t even die.
‘I’ll escape.’
I vowed, harboring a piercing hatred amidst your sweet breaths. That I no longer want to be here. That I’ll break free from our hell.
‘From you, even if I have to die.’
Having made my decision, I painfully opened my mouth.
“Shall we make a bet?”
It was a wish I barely managed to utter, somehow cradled in your arms, burying my face against your sweet bare skin.
“If I win, this time, you’ll kill me for good.”
What expression did you wear when I painfully spat out those words?
“I really…… want to die now.”
Hoping I had hurt you, I closed my eyes like a sinner who had found salvation.
