We Will Be Together Forever (7)

Together Forever!

We can live together forever.

-Yeah. We'll live together forever.

Our own little nest.

-Yeah. A nest where no one can interfere and no one can intrude. It's the ending we wanted, right?

Do you think the same, Onii-chan?

-Of course. Didn't Onii-chan say he loves you?

Yeah, he definitely said that.

-It's dangerous outside.

That's true. There are too many people trying to take Onii-chan from me. Your words were all foolish, but...

-Look at that girl. She's trying to seduce Onii-chan somehow. I can see Onii-chan is uncomfortable. What about the people who want to kill Onii-chan? Remember what happened in the tutorial dungeon. Onii-chan is weak.

Onii-chan is weak.

-We need to protect him.

Yeah.

-This is protection. It's necessary for protection. It's dangerous outside.

The spell I had memorized burst out of my mouth.

'It's necessary.'

-Kill them all. Start with that girl. The one trying to take Onii-chan.

Is it okay to use high-level magic?

-They probably won't expect it. Wait for the moment they are exposed to the curse.

I'm the same.

-We're fine. I'll protect you, so you won't be affected by the curse, right?

You will protect me?

-Of course, because I am you and you are me. Pierce the head in one go. A small spell should do it. It's important not to waste mana.

Ah! It worked.

-Good. Who's next? That stupid girl over there would be good. Her durability stats are high, so it might be better to think of something different.

What would be good? A corruption spell might work, but it takes too long. Black magic isn't my specialty. How about something else? Blowing up the head from the inside would be good.

-Good idea. They don't seem to have noticed us yet. It's really good. That's right.

Like this...

-Done!

Hehe.

-Don't worry about the rest. They'll all die anyway. Next is... Seon-hee-young?

You used to go out with Onii-chan every day, right?

-Yeah, we did.

But...

-You can't get weak. It's necessary. Let's take care of that kid over there too.

I don't really want to.

-You can't. You can't get weak. We're doing this to protect everyone. Let's make it as painless as possible.

Mm-hmm.

-What about Deok-gu and Hyun-sung?

Killing them is a bit...

-They're people Onii-chan likes. Putting them to sleep would be better.

-Aren't you worried? Kim Hyun-sung is strong. What if he comes back here later and asks for Onii-chan?

That can't happen.

-Then let's kill them.

No, I can't. You'll keep acting like a fool?

-You're the fool. You've done well so far. Are you going to give up now? It's just two people.

No. I won't do it. Especially Deok-gu, who has helped me a lot.

-You'll regret it.

I think putting them to sleep is better. And sending them outside. If they keep coming back, I can't help it, but I really don't want to kill them.

-You.

Before that, we need to take Onii-chan. We need to take him inside and hide him so no one can take him away. Look at Onii-chan sleeping. Isn't he so cute and adorable?

-Mm-hmm. But what if Onii-chan tries to escape?

That won't happen. Onii-chan said he loves us.

-Just in case, we should make a safety mechanism.

Mm-hmm. That should be fine. Hehe. Sleeping Onii-chan is so cute.

-Yeah, really cute. But we need to hurry. We have a lot to do.

Yeah. We need to set up a new nest and get a lot of things ready. Onii-chan likes studying, so making a workshop just for him would be good. We need a bathroom too. A big one where we can shower together would be nice.

We need a big bed and a bathroom, and we need to do our best.

-We need a system to kill anyone who tries to invade our nest. We don't know when people will come after Onii-chan again, so we need to make golems and chimeras. We need more undead too, since the dungeon is empty. It will be hard, but we can do it for Onii-chan. This place will be our nest.

It will be a castle that will never fall, just for Onii-chan and me.

* * *

Onii-chan?

-He's awake now. He didn't eat today either...

I'm so worried. Is he okay? He doesn't look well. Maybe he's sick. It's been months... No... Could Onii-chan want to leave this place?

-It's possible.

He mentioned it a few days ago. He said he wanted to see the outside...

-Don't be fooled. You can't be fooled.

I hate seeing Onii-chan without energy. He doesn't smile much these days.

-You'll understand eventually. You'll understand that all of this is for Onii-chan. It's dangerous outside. Today, strange people entered our nest. If Onii-chan goes outside, it will be too much for him. Do you want him to be taken away again?

No, but... I don't like seeing Onii-chan sad.

-Then cast a spell to make him feel better. Onii-chan will feel better. When he feels better, he'll be kinder to us and we can have happier times. We need to make him smile all the time.

But is it okay?

-It's all for Onii-chan.

It's all for Onii-chan. Right. I need to test it right now.

-Good.

Ah! He smiled. You were right.

-See? Should we try other spells? How about a charm spell?

But that's not Onii-chan's true feelings.

-But maybe it's okay sometimes... You've worked hard, so it would be a good reward for yourself. Right?

A reward for me?

-Yeah. A reward for us. I think it's good to stay like this for one day. Think about it. How much effort you've put into protecting Onii-chan... You catch and kill everyone who enters this place every day, and you even go out to clean up the surroundings sometimes. Remodeling the dungeon was hard, and you have to make chimeras every day. You haven't slept well for days because you've been worried about Onii-chan. Right?

But...

-Just for one day.

But is it okay?

-Of course, don't hesitate. Just do it.

"Then, just for one day. Just for one day..."

-Well done.

Aaaaaaaah.

-Good.

I'm happy. So happy. So, so happy.

"I'm happy. So happy."

-See? I was right. You did well, didn't you?

Yeah, you were right.

* * *

What should I do? O, Onii-chan ran away.

-I thought he would.

Why? Why? Does he hate me now? I made him happy every day... I don't know what went wrong.

-It might be because he's been exposed to the poison of the outside world.

But we're inside the dungeon. Outside air can't get in.

-But intruders come in every day. The dirty air they exhale is polluting Onii-chan's mind.

We need to kill them all.

-Right?

I didn't expect him to run away suddenly. It's all the intruders' fault! Why can't they leave us alone? Why do they keep coming here and interfering with our time together? I don't get it! I don't get it! Shouldn't we just go out and kill them all? Kill all the people in Rindell.

-Good idea. But even if we kill humans, more will keep coming.

Then, what should we do?

-Onii-chan's mind might already be corroded by the outside air. It won't be easy to cure. Onii-chan can't escape the dungeon alone, but we need to do something as a temporary measure.

What?

-Let's cut off his legs.

"No. That's ridiculous. I don't want Onii-chan to be hurt."

-We can cut them off without pain.

Without pain?

-Yeah. We can cut them off without pain. Cast a spell to make him feel better, and remove them slowly. Onii-chan won't feel pain, of course. Walking will be a bit harder, but it's fine, right? We'll always stick to Onii-chan's side. We'll make him depend on us.

No... That's...

-What if Onii-chan escapes and runs away with another girl? The Red Mercenary kids came here, and Cha Hee-ra, that stupid girl, might come back.

That's true.

-Can you bear it? If that happens, it will be too hard, won't it? It's better to cut them off now.

You're right. I see.

-Have you ever regretted listening to me?

No, but...

-Trust me this time too. It will be fine, I promise.

* * *

Onii-chan tried to kill himself. He bit his tongue! I hate it. I'm so scared. What if Onii-chan dies?

-He didn't die, right? He's still okay.

But he tried to die! I don't understand! Why is he doing this? I tell him I love him every day. Every day! We spend happy times together, and now no one is looking for us outside! We can finally enjoy a comfortable life!

-It might be because the outside air has already corroded his brain.

I don't want Onii-chan to die. I don't want him to leave me. I hate it so much that he suddenly wants to die. I hate it all!

-We need to prevent him from dying. We can't make him an undead, so let's try various experiments. There must be a way to save Onii-chan. There must be a way to enjoy eternal life together. Let's find a catalyst to regenerate his body and perform surgery on him. It might be a bit painful, but it's necessary, so Onii-chan will understand. Of course, it won't be easy. But you've done well so far, right? So you can definitely do it this time too.

Th... That's right. I have to do it. I have to make sure this never happens again.

-That's right. Exactly.

"Onii-chan, please bear the pain for a little while. It's necessary for Onii-chan."

"Ooh... Ah... Ah."

"I love you? Of course. I love Onii-chan so much."

"Aah... Ah... Ah... Ah."

"You mustn't die. You mustn't... "

"Aah..."

"It's been a long time. Even with white hair, Onii-chan is still so handsome. Aah... I like it. Onii-chan. Onii-chan!"

"...Ah..."

"I love you. I love you too."

"......"

"Onii-chan's hair has grown so long. Research? Ah... Of course, we need to do it today. It might hurt a bit, but you can bear it. I hurt when Onii-chan hurts. So let's both try our best."

"......"

"Onii-chan, please bear it a little longer. You can still hold on. Don't give up hope. Huh... I love you. I love you."

"......Ah"

"Aaaaaah... No! No!"

"I... "

"Yes, Onii-chan. I'm here."

"You... "

"I love you. I love you too. So please don't go. Please... "

"I resent you."

"A... "

"I resent and curse you for making me like this. For life... No, even after death, I will curse you. You didn't give me love. You tormented me and made me like this. Look at my body. It's the result of what you did. Look at what surrounds us now. You've ruined everything."

"Aaaaaah"

"You've betrayed everything. My love for you, my sincerity, you've ruined everything. We could have been happier. We could have lived happily together. Even after death... Even after death, I will never forget you. I will curse you, curse you, and curse you again."

"Aaaaaah"

"I don't love you anymore."

"Aaaaaah! No! No! What should I do? What... What should I do now? Onii-chan? Onii-chan!"

-We can save him. We can still save him.

"Don't joke! Don't joke! It's all... It's all your fault! You did this! To Onii-chan... "

-I don't understand what you're saying...

"Die! Die! Die!"

-What are you saying? You're a fool. You still don't understand?

"......"

-Look. I am you. We are one, remember? You did all of this. Fool.

"There's no way... There's no way."

-Ba...

"......"

-Bo...

Crack!

"Aaaaaah!"
