There Are Too Many Background Settings in the Possessed Novel

pre-election (2)

Yuria crouched down even smaller.

A dim light in the room flickered from time to time.

Every time that happened, it felt like Yuria’s own consciousness was also flickering.

For several days, Yuria had been in this room.

How much time has passed? No, how many days have passed?

It felt like the flow of time had become stagnant, like hardened jelly.

“… why.”

I curled up even more.

Loneliness and fear scratched Yuria’s heart.

It was too cold in this room. I couldn’t tell if it was really cold or if it was because I was alone.

Crouching down, Yuria continued to stare at the black iron door.

I knew it was better to close my eyes and lose consciousness.

But I couldn’t bear it unless I kept staring at that dark, ugly door, and imagined Leonhard entering through that door.

Because it was too scary. It’s like standing on the edge of a cliff and looking down at the bottom you can’t see.

Perhaps, Leonhardt even forgot to put him here.

At some point, Yuria had that thought.

Because I’m useless. I know myself that I am nothing.

In the end, Leonhard might have been swept away by the Constellations as well.

After all, if a Constellation told me to abandon me.

So he might have thought that it would be better to throw something like me away.

And look.

The proof that Leonhard abandoned me is here.

YuRia tightly gripped the necklace hanging around her neck.

There were cracks in the jewel that was shining blue as if it had been scooped up with clear seawater.

Shortly after Leonhard left him in this room and disappeared, the jewel cracked.

From then on, Yuria realized that her magical powers had disappeared.

This jewel could have been proof that Leonhard had abandoned him.

The magic power that kept the jewels belonged to Leonhardt, so maybe now… .

At the same time, he hated Leonhardt. It was disappointing.

Even though he said it was his article, he threw it away so easily.

“Huh… .”

Tears burst out spontaneously.

The gaze at the door became hazy, and the scenery spread as if paint had been put on water.

I was so hungry that I felt a stinging pain in my stomach and a cracking feeling in my throat.

It was old, but there was a water fountain, so the water was drinkable. However, at the same time as she cried, her consciousness also faded.

After the mana disappeared, there was no strength in the body at all. The closing and opening of the eyes as if fainting was repeated several times.

‘In addition… .’

Consciousness began to blur again.

how much time has passed Gradually, that didn’t matter.

I’m going to die here anyway Most of his life was dark anyway.

No matter how hard I struggled to survive, in the end, the real problem came, so I couldn’t do anything alone. And I ran away like a coward, and I’m trapped like this.

After all, if you are destined to die locked up. And if I have to continue to live like that, I might as well die here.

“You are very stubborn. His ego is so strong, but he’s also a coward. So you will not be like your brothers.”

I heard my mother’s voice.

In fact, Yuria was not loved even by her mother who loved her so much.

Having lived in an apathetic imperial palace, she couldn’t even love herself, let alone her children.

But, in fact, that’s right. Actually, Yuria knew.

That’s why no one really liked Yuria Rodmas.

For a moment, Kaiden came to mind and then disappeared. Those eyes of longing were nothing more than following the fantasy of Yuria, the student council president, created by Yuria herself.

okay. right. Maybe what I wanted to do wasn’t survive or get stronger… .

profit.

The door is open.

“majesty.”

The boy whispered in a voice infinitely soft like a breeze.

Someone held her in a firm arm and rubbed her mouth with a finger.

“It is dry. Are you very thirsty?”

After a slow whisper, a little cold water trickled down my lips.

Yuria hurriedly drank the water that flowed into her mouth.

“You drink well. Drink a little more slowly. I’m sick.”

The boy’s hand stroked Yuria’s blonde hair.

Relieved by the kind touch that went through her hair and brushed her scalp, Yuria slowly swallowed the water slowly.

Yuria caught her breath.

Only then did he come to his senses and a bright golden eye came into his field of vision.

“Leon… Hart?”

A cracked voice came out of his mouth.

Leonhard smiled brightly and put his arm between YuRia’s armpit, grabbed her by the back and shoulders, and pulled her to the product.

“I am.”

A voice came out like a comma along with the exhalation.

As I buried my face in Leonhardt’s chest, I heard a heartbeat.

Once, twice, and then countless times. As I listened to the sound of my heart beating continuously like the second hand of a clock, I gradually came to my senses.

“… why… late.”

YuRia cried and looked up at him.

Fear rushed in, as if the dam that had been barely built had burst.

To the point where I couldn’t tell if the irregular breathing sound was mine or Leonhard’s.

“why are you late! How long have you waited! I… here… how much… .”

Anger simmered in his thin voice.

The wrapped hand tapped Leonhard’s shoulder as he embraced me.

It was a powerless struggle that did not even reach the level of violence.

“What am I so… What did you hate so much that you tried to abandon me? Did you hate me because I was incompetent? I… Stubborn, proud and cowardly. Is that why you tried to throw it away?!”

Yuria looked at Leonhardt’s face.

His golden eyes were reflected in his eyes filled with transparent tears.

There was a boy with dark, sad eyes, biting his mouth in guilt.

“I didn’t know it would turn out like this.”

YuRia had never seen Leonhard make such an expression.

He’s always confident, has something to hide behind, and that’s why he’s reliable.

However, Leonhardt’s frank apology was so unfamiliar.

“It was something I did for Your Highness. I’ve made sure that this room is always open if I die or if things go wrong. … I never thought I would just pass out.”

Leonhardt gently lifted Yuria’s blonde hair.

Then he lightly kissed her hair and held her hand lightly.

Leonhard kissed the palm that had been scarred from knocking on the door.

A tickling feeling ran through her palms, and Yuria felt the vitality return to her body. Leonhardt’s mana was swirling around his body.

“I don’t throw it away.”

Leonhard said to YuRia, who was in tears.

“You said you were lovely. It was just a mistake this time.”

Beneath the delicately stretched long eyelashes, Leonhardt’s golden eyes showed affection.

“Even if it were true that I was incompetent, stubborn, proud, and cowardly, I am.”

Yuria felt that her breath was gradually choking.

“I didn’t say I didn’t like that. Because you are weak, you are good.”

Those harsh words stuck in my chest.

It felt as if he was gradually tearing me off my arm.

I couldn’t figure out why he felt like a predator when he apologized.

Perhaps it was the serenity that pervaded him at the feeling of his own weakness being acknowledged.

As he said, he was weak.

That’s why if I’m protecting myself, should I continue to be weak?

It’s awful. Leonhardt always felt like he was in complete denial of his life and was gradually trying to make himself a foolish underdog.

But above all, the fact that it was not abandoned resonated in my heart.

It came with a bigger meaning than anything else. I couldn’t stand it anymore, my emotions came out.

As YuRia burst into tears and rubbed her face in his arms, Leonhardt affectionately stroked her hair.

After calming down a bit, Yuria tried to come to her senses.

It seemed like this shouldn’t be the case.

“I want to go outside.”

Don’t get caught up in Leonhard’s pace.

I don’t know what he’s doing now, but his condition is getting weirder.

“That’s not okay.”

Leonhard said firmly.

“Outside, the situation has gotten worse because of the Constellation impersonator. If the electric charge with no power goes outside… die Right now, everyone is frantic and is looking for Her Highness to kill him.”

“That, what does that mean?”

“Because the impersonator ordered to kill Her Highness Yuria. I’m a professor high school student and I’m aiming for Her Highness Yuria’s life.”

kill… ? me? so many students? Even the professor?

Yuria felt like she was being pulled into the deep darkness.

I wanted to get out at least by forcefully shaking off it, but I couldn’t seem to get away from Leonhardt.

“why… ?”

“If you don’t kill YuRia Rodmas, disaster will come. Because the impersonator spread rumors like that.”

My head was dizzy.

It seemed that it was because he had not been able to eat for several days and suddenly became angry.

I should have been more angry, but I had no energy.

As Yuria weakly leaned her weight on Leonhardt, Leonhardt smiled thinly and rubbed her cheek.

Are Leonhard’s words true? I don’t even know that. I should have doubted, but I didn’t have the energy to doubt.

“I will explain more in detail. First of all, I eat rice. I brought it.”

“no. I hate you.”

“You should eat.”

Leonhard smiled deeply, put his hand behind Yuria’s thigh, lifted it up lightly, and changed his posture.

Before he knew it, he had a lunch basket in his hand.

“Even if you are forced to eat, you will be healthy again.”

Leonhardt’s hand lightly touched Yuria’s broken necklace.

“That way the magic will come back.”

YuRia kept her mouth shut.

However, Leonhard only opened the basket with a smile on his lips.

“Originally, since I had been starving for a long time, I had to eat something as thin as possible, but I couldn’t bring it. I shouldn’t have been caught by the smell. So I’ll take a bite and feed it.”

Leonhard tore off a small piece of bread and held it out to Yuria’s mouth.

Feeling resentful, YuRia shook her head and rejected it, and Leonhard smiled lightly.

“Please eat.”

“no.”

After several more invitations, Leonhard let out a murmur and said regretfully.

“Aren’t you hungry?”

Leonhard took the bread from Yuria’s mouth without hesitation.

“Oh, no… that is… .”

When the fragrant bread went away, it was Yuria who felt sorry for her.

I felt hungry as if my stomach was about to burst.

When YuRia belatedly reached out her hand toward the bread, Leonhardt smiled slowly.

“No. majesty. It’s an opportunity that has already crossed the water.”

At Leonhardt’s words, Yuria swallowed her saliva.

“You should have asked for it honestly.”

Nonsense.

I was very hungry.

why did i do that? You should have just asked for it.

Leonhard put the pieces of bread back into the basket.

“senior. Then I will explain the circumstances outside… .”

“Give, give.”

“What?”

“bread… give it.”

YuRia held onto Leonhard’s hem and spoke earnestly.

I have no pride. Even though I said I didn’t like it a while ago.

Then he laughed. Leonhardt’s fingers firmly gripped Yuria’s chin and lifted her up.

His face came closer, and he spoke softly right in front of her lips.

“… huh? It’s cute. Could you be more polite, please?”

YuRia’s gaze trembled at Leonhardt’s words.

Yuria knew what he wanted.

Only then did YuRia come to mind.

Leonhard This boy was a boy who could forever lock himself in this room.

without anyone knowing

In this room now, Yuria was not Leonhard’s lord.

Rather, it was Leonhard who controlled Yuria herself.

“… please.”

“What?”

“bread… . please.”

Leonhardt stroked YuRia’s hair as if to praise her.

“Well done.”

Leonhard took the piece of bread from before from the basket.

No, not just that, but butter and jam on top.

“Open your mouth.”

At Leonhardt’s words, Yuria slightly opened her lips.

Yuria thought as she bit her fingers together with the sweet bread that had invaded her mouth.

Why is this moment strangely satisfying?

Tring!

[Aware of Yuria’s tendency to depend. Progress (5/10)

Acquire 200pt plot points!]

Leonhardt looked at Yuria’s propensity, which had risen several levels at once, with complicated eyes.

And he continued to carefully prepare the bread and put it into Yuria’s mouth, who happily received and ate it.

‘Actually, something bigger happened outside, but I mean.’

How far should I explain?

That was what Leonhardt was worried about.
