I Think I’m a Horror Game Villain - Chapter 64
Chapter 64
Jessie, who had been glaring at me with a smirk, curled her lips into a crooked smile.
“What, you said you knew how to break the curse, but in the end, you’re cursed like me.”
“Curse?”
“Don’t play dumb. You remember it too, don’t you? This terrible curse that repeats endlessly.”
The curse she was talking about was probably our constant encounters.
‘Jessie doesn’t know she’s a character in the game yet, so she can only think of this repeating situation as a curse.’
“Heyna, you said we were ■■ ■ ■■■■, right?”
“Huh?”
The noise made it difficult to hear Jessie’s words properly.
“You said that to completely break the curse, you had to ■■ ■■, and I believed you. At that time, you seemed like a different person, so I thought maybe you really could break the curse.”
Again.
Only at the moment when she was talking about how to break the curse, the crackling noise made it impossible to understand the content.
“I’ve been watching you. And I saw it. You gave up ■■ because of ■■ and ■■■■ ■■■.”
The story of Heyna from the previous playthrough that only Jessie remembers. The reason why certain parts are obscured by noise is probably…
‘Isn’t it because it’s an important clue that I shouldn’t know yet?’
“Jessie, please tell me again what you just said….”
Before I could finish speaking, my throat suddenly closed up.
[Inappropriate behavior detected.]
What? Inappropriate behavior?
The mansion’s ghost was in my inventory, and when I secretly used an item to erase the evidence that I was the villain, it kept quiet. But listening to Jessie’s words again is inappropriate behavior?
[Penalty!]
[You will be silenced for the next 5 minutes.]
What the hell!
My indignant cry did not escape my lips. I tried hard to open my mouth, but all I could hear was the sound of air escaping.
I can’t speak at this crucial moment.
Jessie laughed gleefully at my frustration. After laughing for a long time, she suddenly stopped.
“Heyna.”
Her voice, which had sunk low, was chillingly cold.
“You betrayed us.”
Her eyes, which shone brightly, were filled with betrayal and anger.
‘What on earth did Heyna do in the previous playthrough!’
I had no idea what the ‘betrayal’ Jessie was talking about meant.
“So I’m not going to help you this time.”
With those words, she disappeared again.
‘Jessie!’
– If you want to convince me, escape from here on your own. You have to show me that much ability before I can trust you again.
Jessie’s voice echoed faintly in the air.
That was Jessie’s last word.
“Heyna, are you okay?”
Dekir, who approached me, looked at me with concern. I pointed at my mouth with my finger and shook my head, indicating with gestures that I couldn’t speak.
“You can’t speak?”
Thankfully, Dekir, ever quick-witted, noticed my condition immediately.
I showed him the number 5 with my palm.
“5? You mean you can’t speak for 5 minutes?”
As I nodded, Dekir let out a short sigh.
“Thank goodness. I was worried.”
It’s not time to relax yet.
I thought I’d be able to get information on escaping the room once I found Jessie.
Still, it wasn’t a complete loss. Thanks to her, I learned that she has an important clue about the previous Heyna.
However, the most important thing now was how to escape this room right away.
‘Seeing as there are no maid clothes, it seems the method has changed again, just like the previous room.’
Ah, that’s right!
I pointed to the walkie-talkie in Dekir’s hand. Dekir, seeing my gesture, immediately understood.
“The clue might be in the past room, just like before. Should I contact Rose?”
As expected, Dekir!
I gave Dekir a thumbs up for reading my mind at once.
“Rose. Can you hear me?”
Instead of me, who couldn’t speak, Dekir spoke into the walkie-talkie.
– …….
But even after waiting for over 10 seconds, there was no response.
“Rose?”
Dekir called Rose again.
“Rose, Tommy. Can’t you hear me?”
But no matter how much he called, the walkie-talkie remained silent.
“This is strange. What’s going on?”
While we were trying the radio, the water rose up to our knees.
Suddenly, an unsettling thought crossed my mind.
Could it be that the two of them are in a situation where they can’t hear the radio?
‘They’re not already drowned because of the water filling up like our room, are they?’
Unlike me, Rose and Tommy can come back to life thanks to the save function. But what if they wake up in a place where the water is still rising or completely cut off after coming back to life?
‘Rose, Tommy. Please, please be alive.’
