Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem

103 – The prize given to you (6)

I refused to hear such an absurd thing to talk about and I lay down.

“I have something to say to someone who is already dead…”

Yes, I am dead. He knew about the superpower he had, the heart chaser, but his excessive vigilance rather aroused his anger.

The guy who splattered blood of the same color as a human in my attack sensed the danger and ended up ripping out his heart with his bitter ability.

In the end, I met the same ending as the butler, no, a more miserable and idiotic end than that.

Unlike the butler, who was ignorant of this ability, he met a lonely death in an alleyway while being beaten even though he knew about it.

In the end, I gave the lady a miserable end to her first love. I gave a life more miserable than a novel and left alone like this.

Rather than feeling discouraged that all the efforts he had made so far had gone to waste, the young lady’s face was flickering and he was frustrated.

“You’re not dead yet, wake up. It’s important to you and me.”

“Your heart was completely ripped out, what kind of nonsense are you talking about…And you’ve been talking about strange things…”

“You can buy it. If you will accept it.”

Again, I jumped up at the nonsense to accept it.

“What on earth am I supposed to accept? As you said, I accepted it by drinking the lady’s blood. But what else…”

“You’re still thinking of yourself as a ‘stranger’. It’s going to take quite a while, so whenever your soul dies, I’ll make you drink blood regularly so it can settle into my body.”

Me when I was young. No, to be precise, he borrowed the childhood image of a man named Sirius, and he heard words he hadn’t heard before.

“You can’t…”

And then, wanting to ask in detail about another piece of information I heard later, I straightened up and sat down to ask, and the young Sirius smiled.

“Yes. I forgot the name, but I am the child of the moon before I was called Sirius. I am the owner of the body you are wearing now.”

My eyes widened to the fact that the person who kept harassing me in my dreams was actually the owner of this body, but that was all. Even if the owner came, it didn’t change what caused me to end my life.

“…That doesn’t make much of a difference. My heart…”

“Something like the heart is important to the children of the stars and the sun, but it doesn’t mean much to us, the children of the moon.”

When he opened his hand while talking kindly for the first time, magic of the same color as the magic I possessed rose up and gradually took on substance and turned into bright red blood.

“You’ve only settled your soul into your body yet, but you’re not even using it properly.”

The bright red blood gradually took shape. Several holes, a small pump organ the size of a fist, and a heart that would pump blood to the whole body at any moment were floating around in his hand.

I was stunned by the scene, staring blankly at it.

“To the child of the moon, fresh blood is more like a source than a medium that connects the soul and body. And you’ve been rejecting it, fearing to even use magic, so you’ve only relied on the body.”

As I raised my other hand, the same magically created fresh blood floated into the air and entered the holes in my heart and started pumping.

“Now it’s time to wake up as a child of the moon. Accept Sirius as he is, the name given to you by the person who cherishes you the most, not a ‘stranger’.”

The heart, which added speed to the pumping, came closer and closer to me. As it entered my chest like magic without giving me time to refuse, my heart pounded excessively to the point of excruciating pain.

“It doesn’t matter whether it’s the name of the star or the moon. It’s up to the mindset of the person who accepts it.”

At his words, my aching heart gradually returned to normal, as if my body had adapted to it, but my head did not.

I couldn’t easily open my mouth to the story of mindset. Even though I made a promise to live as Sirius like that summer day, on the other hand, I was ignoring it as if I was putting off the homework I was given to do during the vacation until the end of the vacation.

“Are you ready to take it?”

“…Not yet. I want to ask you a few important things, is that okay?”

“Ask me anything. It’s close, but I think I can answer it.”

He shrugs his shoulders. I wondered why, despite his spirit remaining, he rather helped me instead of driving me out.

“Why did you help me? If you are the owner of this body, isn’t it normal to kick out an uninvited guest?”

“…I’m tired of being someone’s plaything.”

His shoulders, which had shrugged with a deep sigh at the question, drooped weakly. I continued talking with a bitter, powerless laugh that made me lose my energy.

“And it’s because I’m a shabby guy who doesn’t even have the courage to exorcise the darkest darkness like the one chosen by the starlight. Maybe it’s because I’ve been living as a toy for so many years, but my will is broken long ago, Sirius. Isn’t that you?”

“…How many years do you mean?”

Obviously, when I landed here, I had a body close to that of a child. It didn’t match what he was saying at all, so when I questioned him, he made an expression that he knew it.

“I reconstructed my body to escape by deceiving everything. I fell asleep because it was hard to change my magical power innately to imitate the children of the stars. So I fell asleep for a long time and didn’t know you came. “

Since he stared at the ground with terrified eyes without saying anything, he sighed and gestured to ask if he had any more questions. Because I could understand if I knew a little more.

“…Do you know why I entered your body?”

“I don’t know about that either. When I woke up, you were stumbling around, so I only gave you a hint in my dream.”

“Right now, while you’re so good at talking like that, is that a hint?”

I still remember the first time I had that dream. It’s scary enough to be traumatized, and when you wake up from a dream, something you can’t handle has happened.

“…It was just after I woke up, so I couldn’t help but do whatever came to my mind. I’m sorry. But I warned you every time it was dangerous, so take care of it.”

The image of him folding his arms and sighing to make the ground go away was so pleasant that it was the exact opposite of the dream I had before, so I smiled involuntarily.

“So, are you ready?”

Seeing me like that, he laughed along, and when he said that, his laughter stopped. Like a hangover that hurts my head after a drinking party, I pressed my throbbing temple at the approaching reality.

“…What should I do?”

“It’s nothing special. You can accept it and use my body as you please.”

Is that easier said than done? He sighed and asked what he would do about the body’s original owner.

“You?”

“I’m so tired. Now I want to go back to my radiant mother’s arms and rest forever.”

Like a person whose mind was shattered and only powder remained, he looked up with a dejected smile. In the sky, a slender crescent moon held a feeble light.

“Time is up now. There will be no more warnings going off in your head, and I won’t come out of your dreams.”

“Is there any way I can find out how I got into your body?”

Perhaps it was an illusion, his body was crumbling like a crumbling mind, but he nodded his head as if he didn’t care.

“My brilliant mother should know. It’s possible through the priests of the moon, but if possible, try to meet at night.”

There was no time to catch him as the speed of his crumbling gradually increased. With less than half of his face left, his mouth opened for the last time he smiled.

“…Watch out for the lizards.”

I only nodded my head at the cryptic words to be careful, more like advice or a warning. Eventually, it completely turned into powder and scattered, and I was left alone in a dark space.

He knew how to get out.

Now, with the long vacation, it was time to finish the homework I had been putting off. It may be that I am still immature in accepting that fact, but I have no choice but to try to get better.

It was time to accept the heavy and frightening love of the young lady. The end of her miserable first love could not end like this.

I am ready to accept myself and love others. It’s time to forgive myself for not even loving myself.

As Sirius, I awoke as the butler of House Taurus. It will become her brightest star and guide you through the dark night sky.

I took care of myself and accepted my everything.

Like a warm dream on a mid-spring day, I woke up with a pleasant and hazy energy.

On a dark ultramarine night, a thin crescent moon like the tip of a fingernail I saw in a dream greeted me.

I am Sirius.

Europe, who lost the most precious person to her, had no time to grieve. He was filled with anger at the man who had killed someone dear to him, and tears filled his eyes with anger.

I grabbed the sword I borrowed urgently from the smithy run by a dwarf with both hands and took a posture to attack right away.

The opponent who killed Sirius was much stronger than himself, but he didn’t even have time to care about that. It was just a simple and clear decision to kill the enemy who killed him.

The magical power of the bright yellow Golden Bow wrapped around her body. She showed a brighter light than the magic she had shown before swinging her sword, but her eyes were just on the guy’s face.

“…To be with a son of a star walking on the path of the hated sun among so many son-of-a-kind, it’s really disgusting today.”

Literally, frowning in displeasure, the heart he was holding exploded, and as if that acted as a catalyst, he charged with a long greatsword.

After clashing with iron against iron, they twisted their swords back and forth toward each other’s necks, and a goosebumps-like sound echoed through the quiet alleyway.

Cor would have been able to defeat it long ago if it had been his original skills, but he suffered multiple wounds while fighting Sirius and used his superpowers to resist her sword, which was silently full of murderous intent with insufficient strength.

Unlike Sirius, who was focused on speed battles, his swordsmanship, which shed her heavy sword with each trace of his sword, said that although he lacked strength, it was not a lie that he had lived for a long time.

The two swords collided dozens of times, aiming for each other’s gaps and moving their bodies swiftly.

The clothes on each other’s clothes were torn, and the wounds were bleeding, but Cor, frightened by her murderous eyes that didn’t care, reached out his hand, not holding the sword, toward the gap he was barely aiming for.

No, I tried to stretch. Until a blade like bright red blood floating in the air cut off his outstretched hand.

“…!”

“Kuh… Suddenly something…”

Both he and she were surprised by the sudden situation, but Europa, who came to her senses first, swung a sharp sword at him.

Like a bull rushing excitedly at the cloth waving by a bullfighter, he was confronted with a trajectory that could not be easily blocked, but he could not withstand the shock applied to his body and flew off and crashed into the wall.

“Keep it off…”

With the sound of air escaping from her lungs, she fell from the wall she was impaled on. She decapitated her, wiping the blood from the wound on her cheek with her sleeve and controlling her breathing. I wondered what the blade really was, so I looked around.

“That was just…”

“Nice job, young lady.”

Hearing her all-too-familiar voice in the back of her head, she hurriedly turned her head away.

The sight of Sirius clapping at her casually, with the blood on her shirt still smeared on her, stunned her, then she threw her sword to the ground and ran towards him. .

It was an illusion created by missing him, she thought it was just an illusion, but her body moved wildly. And that illusion was the real illusion.

She ran to her and took her into her arms and hugged her. We just hugged each other without saying anything.

How long has it been since we hugged each other without speaking? Of the two, the first to speak was Europa. He asked cautiously, hugging him tightly to feel his body temperature.

“…Are you really Sirius?”

“Then will there be fake ones?”

“I saw you last time in Tenebris.”

“Ahahahaha, I will.”

The warm body temperature I always felt, and the jokes that weren’t poetic. Then, hearing his heartbeat in his chest and knowing that she was real, she slipped away and slammed her fist into her chest.

“…Stupid.”

“Yes, lady.”

She saw his smiling face as he casually hit her chest, puffed out her cheek, and hit it again.

“…You idiot.”

“Say yes, lady.”

Water welled up in her eyes. His vision blurred, but the smile he was wearing remained the same.

“I thought I was…Losing you…”

“Where am I going to leave my lady by my side?”

“…He lost his heart and collapsed just now…You speak well…”

Once again, as if the beating she felt was not an illusion, she put her hand on his chest, and tears poured from her eyes as she watched her beating heart as if she were holding it with her fingertips.

“…Don’t ever tell me to run alone, no matter what. I’d rather stand by your side.”

“Yes. I will, if you will.”

He said, holding the hand on his chest and wiping the tears from the eyes of the precious person with his hand.

“…Rather than that, shall we go change our clothes?”

“…There are many things I’d like to ask, but let’s just…”

It was a cold spring evening, enough to make my body tremble while wearing clothes that were no different from rags.
