We'll Be Together Forever (8)

After a brief struggle due to a sudden curse, I hurriedly looked at Jung Hae-yeon.

Her face looked a bit more serious than I had expected.

“AAAAAAAAAAA!”

‘It worked.’

It might be a somewhat shocking story, but it’s a well-structured narrative with a clear beginning, middle, and end.

It might be a bit hard for her to bear.

‘This is the right answer.’

It must be the right answer. Of course, if it were the usual Jung Hae-yeon, she probably wouldn’t have acted so impulsively.

The confusion she had been experiencing since entering the dungeon was all due to the curse.

If you think of it as shock therapy, it’s somewhat understandable.

Her face was drenched in tears, and she was tearing at her disheveled hair.

Of course, the others weren’t much different, but anyone could see that Jung Hae-yeon’s condition was the most severe.

I thought the best thing to do was to firmly hold her hand.

“No! No!”

‘What kind of strength…’

After shaking off my hand, she immediately tried to harm herself.

I pulled her hands as hard as I could to prevent her from strangling herself.

She was gasping, but somehow managing to breathe.

I gripped her hand even tighter and kissed her again, and she slowly came to her senses.

“AAAAAAAA….”

“……”

“Huh….”

Her expression, which had been confused, turned to one of surprise, and her eyes, which now recognized my face, were filled with tears.

“AAAAAAAA… Oppa… Oppa….”

She not only caressed my face but also checked my entire body.

I thought such a reaction was natural. The last time she saw me, I must have looked very terrible.

“I’m back.”

“What….”

“I’m back. I’m back. Huh… I’m back… I’m back.”

“What are you talking about, Hae-yeon?”

“It’s nothing, nothing. Huh… I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m a fool, a moron, I’m sorry.”

‘Good.’

“What are you sorry for…? I don’t… Is the curse okay? Did you see something?”

“No. It’s not a curse. It was all my fault. Everything. I’m sorry, Oppa. I’m really sorry for acting on my own. Huh… Please don’t hate me.”

‘I could never hate you.’

I’ve never hated Jung Hae-yeon from the beginning.

Of course, I thought this time was a bit too much, but her behavior was due to the curse.

I was even grateful that I could insert the illusion into her fractured mind.

I felt fortunate that this opportunity came so quickly.

Jung Hae-yeon will eventually cause trouble. While I can’t predict the future, given her nature, it’s a foregone conclusion that a bomb will explode.

Thinking I can prevent it now makes me smile.

‘I do feel a bit of responsibility…’

I don’t have any unusual tastes or a fetish for being restrained, but I can’t deny that I feel guilt, sympathy, and a bit of affection for Jung Hae-yeon.

-You’re rationalizing it. You think getting closer to her will help you distance yourself from your guilt. You want to convince yourself that you still have a conscience by not abandoning her.

‘That could be true.’

I thought I might have been affected by the curse, but now it doesn’t matter.

A heavy voice sounds like a dog barking.

“I don’t know what happened, but I have no reason to hate you. You are the most precious to me.”

Half of it is sincere.

“Huh… I also think you are the most precious. I like you the most.”

Again, I saw her bury her tear-stained and snot-covered face in my chest.

“You’re back. You’re back. Thank you, God. Thank you so much, God. Thank you.”

“You keep saying….”

“It’s nothing. Huh… Oppa. Oppa. Are you hurt anywhere? Your legs….”

“They’re fine.”

“Huh… I’m relieved. Your arms are fine too. There are no scars. No gray hair. No pain. Your tongue is fine. Huh.”

Of course, there were unexpected situations.

I thought the illusion I created would feel real, but….

‘I didn’t expect her to think she had regressed…’

If I had known she would think that, I should have added more to the story.

For example, a scene where Cha Hee-ra or Lee Ji-hye saves my life at some point.

While it might be hard to fit into the script, if I had included such a scene, Jung Hae-yeon’s hostility towards them would have decreased significantly.

‘It’s a bit disappointing.’

I should explain it to her later.

“Oppa… Huh….”

“Are you calmer now?”

“Yes… a little… a little.”

“Can you wait a moment? I need to take care of the others.”

“Sure. Of course, Oppa.”

I gently stroked her head, and she immediately blushed.

She was sitting quietly, and then, as if she suddenly remembered something from before the regression, she started shaking and crying, looking like a pitiful puppy, which was a bit cute.

‘I shouldn’t be thinking this…’

Anyway, seeing Jung Hae-yeon, it seemed she had not only regained her senses but also somewhat escaped the influence of the curse.

I had thought it was possible based on my experiments, but I didn’t expect it to be this effective.

It must be due to the custom-made counseling for Jung Hae-yeon.

‘I can apply this to the others as well.’

Not just apply, but it will overflow.

Since I managed to pull Jung Hae-yeon, who was in the most severe condition, the others will be easier.

Using a combination of medication and magical effects, it’s natural to create a mentally comfortable space, even if not perfect.

I turned my head and looked around, and the chaotic scene came into view.

Just like the first time, those who were screaming were slowly coming to their senses, and people were looking around or muttering to themselves.

I glanced at Hwang Jung-yeon, who seemed to have regained her senses, and she was looking at me as if asking how it went.

‘The result is a great success.’

I immediately took out an alchemy kit and started drawing a transmutation circle, and Hwang Jung-yeon, holding her head, began to approach.

It was natural for everyone to focus on me.

It looked like I was a street vendor trying to sell cheap potions.

“Ki-young, what are you….”

“Please come to me one by one.”

“Huh?”

“Please wait for a moment, and come to me one by one.”

“First, an explanation….”

“Please, Yi Sang-hee, come to me first.”

“Master, please sit here.”

“Let’s see. Our guild master. What specific symptoms are you experiencing?”

“Huh?”

“Ah. Since it might involve privacy, it’s better to write it down. Jung-yeon.”

“Sure. I’ll prepare it.”

“Right now….”

“I’ve found a way to effectively suppress the curse. Yi Sang-hee. Please try to relax and write down exactly what symptoms and voices you are hearing. If you start to see hallucinations, describing them in detail will be helpful. If you hear a lot of voices, please write down the phrases that repeat.”

“Ah….”

“Please, everyone in Group 2, line up properly and come to me. Bring writing materials and wait comfortably.”

“……”

Everyone seemed confused, but they were following the instructions, which was a bit amusing.

They looked like they were losing their minds one by one.

While Hwang Jung-yeon’s role was significant, it was still a very entertaining sight.

“Ah, I see.”

“I can see the faces of those I’ve killed. They keep whispering in my ear that I will die soon.”

“Of course, I understand. I’m experiencing similar symptoms. I’ll prescribe a potion, and we’ll proceed with the mental treatment shortly. There are some missing items, but… Hmm. Ah, if you could describe how you killed them, I would be very grateful.”

“Ah, that….”

“You can write it down if it’s hard to say. Describing it in detail will be more effective.”

“I’ll guarantee it. It will be effective.”

“Sure. I understand. Hwang Jung-yeon.”

As expected, Hwang Jung-yeon’s role is important.

“Ah, the next person… Ga Hyun. Your younger brother is alone on Earth….”

“Yes….”

“It must have been very hard.”

“Huh….”

“I have a younger sister on Earth. Of course, I’m worried, but… it’s important to stay strong. We will meet again someday. For now… you seem to be showing severe symptoms of depression. While a complete cure might be difficult, we can alleviate the burden on your mind.”

“What should we do? Ki-young?”

“The potion number 14 in the bag seems appropriate, Jung-yeon. I’ll write the prescription for mental treatment right away. Ga Hyun can start the treatment immediately. Please prepare the magic.”

“Sure.”

She’s an idealistic and gentle person.

The medication will likely work well. Given her personality and the types of hallucinations and voices she’s experiencing, it’s easier to treat.

‘After a beautiful reunion with her younger brother, the sister will encourage her to live on.’

A line like “Let’s live and meet again” will be quite effective.

A few touching scenes are needed, and since her hobby is reading, adding some fantasy elements might be good.

‘Including a part where her brother’s voice and the curse’s voice are in conflict will be effective.’

Of course, what I’m doing can’t be considered medical treatment.

Strictly speaking, it’s nothing more than a fraud disguised as counseling.

It’s not a complete cure, and the hallucinations and voices won’t disappear.

To be precise, it’s just adding a bit of antibiotic to the worn-out mind.

But it works.

The human mind is both weak and strong. It can collapse easily under this kind of curse, but if there’s hope, it can regain the courage to stand up.

The strength to overcome stress and resist the voices.

For that woman, it’s her younger brother; for the man with the same symptoms, it’s his self-esteem; for Jung Hae-yeon, it’s my existence.

‘Good. Good.’

Everything feels like it’s going well.

Of course, I didn’t explain anything to Kim Hyun-sung beforehand.

It’s natural for him to be surprised by this sudden treatment.

He was even more surprised to see the people who had received Hwang Jung-yeon’s mental treatment leave with improved expressions.

His eyes showed that he couldn’t imagine such a method of dealing with the situation.

From the perspective of a reincarnated person, it must be absurd. He must have had his own strategy in mind.

He was in the process of finding a way to dispel the curse and was about to put it into action.

But as long as the goal is the same, the method doesn’t matter.

He seems to understand this and nods.

“I’m back…. Thank you so much, God. Thank you for bringing me back. Really… huh….”

But the mumbling of Jung Hae-yeon makes me feel a bit serious.

‘You didn’t regress, Hyun-sung.’

I think I should explain everything to him after all the treatments are done.
