I Think I’m a Horror Game Villain - Chapter 78

Chapter 78

She acted like she wouldn’t come at all, but it seemed like she wanted to help after seeing us struggling.

She wasn’t a complete nuisance in this kind of situation.

I had been annoyed by Rose, who had been whining all the time, but now that I had a little more patience, my thoughts were different.

‘I guess I would have acted like Rose if I had been trapped here without knowing anything.’

It was natural to be scared after being trapped in a haunted mansion after spending every day normally.

If I were really a player in the game, Rose would be nothing more than an annoying nuisance character, but to me now, Rose is a companion who is looking for a way to survive here together.

“Yeah, Rose. Let’s get out of here together.”

I smiled and held out my hand to Rose.

“Heyna….”

Rose grabbed my hand tightly, her voice trembling.

[Rose’s favorability towards Heyna increased by 1.]

‘Oh, her favorability went up again.’

Rose’s favorability seemed to rise easily compared to other people.

Well, it’s not a bad thing.

“Alright, everyone, let’s push again with all our strength.”

At Zion’s words, we started pushing the wall again.

Creak, creak.

The wall, which had been moving little by little even when we put all our strength into it, suddenly opened wide.

“Oh, there!”

Rose, who was the first to find the door, shouted in an excited voice.

“Let’s hurry and go.”

Zion, who had pushed through the wall, carefully pulled the door open.

He looked beyond the door and shouted with a surprised face.

“Come on, everyone! The mission is cleared!”

“Is that true?”

“We’re finally getting out of this damn place.”

Rose and Tommy also hurriedly followed Zion.

“Let’s go, Dekir.”

“….”

“Dekir?”

“Oh, oh? You called me, Heyna?”

“Why are you spacing out like that? Are you hurt somewhere?”

Dekir, who had been staring blankly at me, shook his head.

“I was just thinking about something else for a moment.”

“I was worried. Let’s get out of here quickly too.”

“Yeah. Let’s go, Heyna.”

***

Dekir, who had been staring blankly at Heyna walking ahead, slowly turned his gaze away.

[Inappropriate behavior detected.]

[Penalty will be imposed on the ‘Mansion Administrator’.]

[The ‘Terrible Curse’ is activated.]

The red messages that appeared one after another were warnings to the administrator who had broken the rules. No, it was closer to punishment.

The ‘Mansion Administrator’ can do anything. As long as it doesn’t break the rules.

Giving a chance to come back to life to someone who is not a player was a clear violation of the rules. To use forbidden power, an appropriate price was needed.

The moment they passed through the passage and went out the door.

“Cough!”

Suddenly, a cough burst out. It felt like he had swallowed a fireball, and his insides were burning hot. The liquid that came up with the cough was as red as his eyes.

‘If one word of love causes this much pain….’

It’s a good exchange.

He also laughed to himself, realizing how ridiculous he had been.

“I love Tommy!”

After hearing those words in Anna’s room, Dekir had been in pain all the time.

Of course, he knew that Heyna’s words were not sincere at all. That it was just an excuse to avoid the crisis.

But it still annoyed him strangely. That unpleasant feeling grew deeper every time he saw Heyna with Tommy.

‘She’s never even said that to me, even if it was a lie.’

It was a childish feeling.

“Dekir…!”

Dekir collapsed as he watched Heyna, who had belatedly checked on his condition and rushed over.

It felt like his heart was being squeezed. The breath that he breathed out was so hot that my throat felt like it was burning. But he didn’t regret his choice.

‘I love you.’

The way she hesitated to say those short words was so endearing.

‘I should have made her say it more specifically.’

Like, ‘Tommy and Zion are not my type at all.’ Or, ‘I don’t want anyone but Dekir.’

‘No. That’s too forced.’

To tell someone you love them.

He liked this better.

The sight of Heyna approaching him without hesitation still lingered in his mind.

Her cheeks, which were strangely flushed as if she were confessing her love.

Her emerald eyes that were restless.

Her small lips that were speaking in a flustered voice.

If he could see that lovely sight again, he could take this curse any number of times.

“Dekir, come to your senses! Dekir…!”

Tears like dewdrops on a blade of grass fell drop by drop on Dekir’s cheeks. It was heartbreaking to see her hugging him, her eyes red and trembling.

Heyna is lovely even when she cries, but…

‘I wish she wouldn’t cry so much.’

He want to be the only one who can make Heyna cry. But at the same time, he doesn’t want her to cry because of him. It was a contradictory feeling.

It couldn’t be helped.

That’s what love is, to create such contradictory feelings and make people stupid.

“I….”

He opened his mouth to tell her not to cry, but only a gasp escaped.

“Heyna, what’s going on… Dekir?”

Zion’s voice, rushing from afar, drowned out Heyna’s cries.

‘Shut up.’

Dekir wanted to shut Zion’s mouth right away.

“Zion, what do we do… Dekir….”

“Heyna, calm down. You have to be calm at a time like this.”

“…Yeah.”

Zion wrapped his arm around Heyna’s shoulder and handed her a handkerchief.

Even as he was losing consciousness, Dekir glared at Zion, who naturally held Heyna in his arms, and gritted his teeth.

‘The one who comforts Heyna, the one who wipes away her tears, is not someone like you. Get away from her right now.’

He wanted to take Heyna back from his arms right away, but his eyelids closed on their own.

‘Damn it.’

Anyway, while he was unconscious, the story of those here would be recorded in the system. He would be able to check everything that happened to Heyna through the recorded information.

Still, Dekir felt regretful.

Even if it was just for a short while. That he couldn’t see and feel Heyna’s expression, voice, and everything else directly.
