[ Charlotte’s Task ]
This might be your final mission, Charlotte, the maid of the mansion.
Abandon your humanity.
Upon successful completion of the mission, assimilation rate shall increase by 30%.
The humanity I needed to abandon.
That was Dietrich.
I figured it out from a few clues.
The mansion had always assigned me tasks to torment Dietrich.
The Fourth Floor Administrator was the same. He demanded Dietrich in exchange for sparing my life.
Everyone knew. Everyone but me.
They knew that this man was the last shred of my humanity.
Before Dietrich entered the mansion, I had lived just fine, trapped and isolated. I could lie around all day, lost in thought, and I didn’t suffer. There was no emotional turbulence.
But when Dietrich entered, everything changed.
My daily life revolved around him, my emotions swelled and burst because of him.
I was like a corpse, but Dietrich revived me.
That’s why he was my humanity.
And thus, I had to destroy Dietrich myself.
I glanced at the system window, then turned my gaze back to Dietrich, who was groaning in his sleep.
He was having a nightmare.
Feeling a pang of sorrow, I stroked his cheek.
“Charlotte, love me,” he begged desperately.
He was the first person in my life to love me this much.
That’s why I wanted him to live a happy life outside.
I stayed by Dietrich’s side in silence.
How much time had passed? The system window appeared again.

[ The usage period has expired. Authority is now revoked. ]
Dietrich, who had been writhing in torment, opened his eyes.
[ Darkness: 100% ]
His darkness, which had hovered around 90%, had now reached its conclusion.
He looked at me with confused eyes.
Unable to distinguish between dream and reality, his pupils trembled. He clung to me desperately, as if afraid of losing me.
Deliberately, I coldly pushed his hands away.
“Get your filthy hands off me. What do you think you’re doing?”
“…So it wasn’t a dream.”
Dietrich’s voice was thick with despair, as if all hope had vanished.
I had to hurl cruel words at him, just as the Charlotte in his nightmare had done.
But before I could come up with anything, Dietrich grabbed my wrist and yanked me forward.
With a strong pull, I was forced down onto the bed.
Startled, I tried to sit up, but he pinned me down, roughly pressing his lips to mine.
“Ugh!”
“You tore off one of my arms. Can’t you endure this?”
“……”
“Endure it, Charlotte.”
A strange thought crossed my mind.
If this is what it took to leave, what was the Room of Truth all about?
Perhaps I would never know.
[ Mission accomplished. ]
* * *
[ Charlotte assimilates with ‘…’ ]
I was dumbfounded and angry.
The man had pushed me away. The feeling had been utterly shocking.
I had kissed him, but he pushed me away?
He didn’t even seem to dislike it. I could usually read people’s emotions quite well.
His face had shown pleasure. So why push me away?
And with such a bright red, foolish expression, no less.
“This isn’t right.”
“…Why not?”
“Well…”
“I like you. Don’t you like me? Do you hate me?”
His pupils trembled in panic. He shook his head, as if to say he didn’t hate me.
Of course. It wasn’t possible for him to hate me.
He was probably just embarrassed or shy.
I leaned in to kiss him again. But once more, he pushed me away.
By now, I felt humiliated.
Could it be that he had someone else in mind?
