The bad ending of an Otome game MTL - Chapter (240)

Episode 240

* * *

Laertes Hope stared at the snow falling outside the window.
It reminded me of a conversation I had with Ophelia one day.
‘Guess what, brother. I know it’s not my key, but it’s in my hand. And open the box or not, I’m dead. The owner of that box knows. Then what do I do? So that no one can open the box, will you die holding the key? Shall I throw it away in a wasteland so that no one can have it?’
The words Ophelia, who was smiling, spoke with dry eyes.
‘You don’t know what this means right now?’
‘…….’
‘I wish I didn’t know. It’s really annoying to think of someone as precious.’
‘…….’
‘But I don’t want to pass it on to my brother. Because I am very, very greedy.’
There was only one conclusion.
‘Someday, there will come a time when you will be troubled just like me.’
It was a prophecy, not a prophecy.
“okay.”
Laertes smiled bitterly as she wiped the sleeping Emilia’s forehead.
“You are right.”
Even if I’d cut my own heart, I didn’t know that I would stab Emilia.
Emilia urged her to think of him from the beginning, but it wasn’t that she didn’t think about it, no matter how hard she was.
I didn’t want to sacrifice Emilia.
The danger of being stabbed in the heart, Laertes knew better than anyone. would you be okay? how? But, Emilia smiling with a more trembling face. In the end, she couldn’t deny what she wanted.
It didn’t matter if the world was destroyed.
However, since Emilia wanted to protect the world, she wanted to protect it together.
“Ophelia, I had no intention of defeating you from the beginning. I didn’t mean to give it away or say anything like that. just, so, just… … .”
Laertes placed her forehead on the back of Emilia’s hand. earnestly like a believer praying to God.
“…… Because spring flowers will bloom.”
Flowers will bloom in spring, and it will rain in summer. The leaves will fall in autumn, and snow will come again in winter.
Flowers bloomed again at the Marquis of Windrose, which was almost in ruins. Queen Aloisia was working hard and running the government in her own way. There was news that Casio Brahmanduff, who was living there, was secretly active in diplomacy with the Principality of Aldice.
Beth brought her favorite storybook and left it at Emilia’s bedside.
Joseph, who came after him, said it was a secret to Beth, and that the storybook was not something people would see, and replaced it with another book.
Princess Alogia and Elodie left a medicine that was good for their body.
The Marquis of Irende said that Emilia looked cold and began weaving a shawl to cover it.
“Because we all love Emilia, just a little…… ”
It was the ‘happy ending’ that Emilia Klee wanted more than anything else.
Everyone she wanted to save became happy.
“Let me see her smile.”
I thought I would follow you when I die. No matter where I go, I won’t go alone.
I will respect her choice no matter what the dangers she faces.
Thinking like that, I thought I wouldn’t regret it.
It wasn’t.
Falling in love with someone is like regretting everything in the past.
Couldn’t there be another way?
didn’t you feel sick
Is it my fault that I can’t wake up?
What if I follow you and you can’t find it?
Everything was regret and anxiety.
So Laertes Hope just prayed.
So that she can return and welcome the things she has protected, the people who cherish her.
Without certainty whether the fickle goddess will answer the prayer or not.
Outside the window, white snow flakes fluttered like sugar.

* * *

When I opened my eyes, I realized that my body was very thin.
Literally, it was light enough to do anything. The clothes he was wearing were also light and soft, not like he was wearing them. As soon as I opened my eyes, the sun was shining bright enough to dazzle my eyes. I got up slowly.
All four sides were dazzling. On the white sandy field, trees with large leaves were lined up.
I was lying on a hammock hung between the trees. I slowly got down from the hammock and stepped on the white sand with my feet. As I walked slowly, I saw a familiar silhouette.
“Ophelia.”
The boy looked at me and smiled. Next to it was a sand castle that looked like it had been built.
“Emilia.”
“How have you been?”
“I didn’t have a good time without you.”
Ophelia pursed her lips as if in a grudge. The sunlight pouring down from the tip of the crown was particularly dazzling.
I approached Ophelia and sat down next to her. The water smelled of wet sand. The sound of seagulls was heard in the distance.
“Do you dig a sand castle without a shovel?”
“Because it’s fun.”
I looked down at the well-made sand castle. Poetry is grass and yellow petals, and a couple of ants scurrying back and forth in the sand castle. Vivid black silk ribbon.
“And from now on, you will build it together.”
Instead of answering, I looked into her bright green eyes. Ophelia smiles so brightly that she can’t read the inside.
I slowly opened my mouth.
“Ophelia.”
“Huh.”
I hesitated and said to Ophelia, who answered as if waiting.
“…… I greet people… … Can’t you come?”
“Are you bored?”
“Huh.”
“Are you so sorry that you can’t be with me?”
“Ophelia, I…… you were the best in the world I will never forget you as long as I live. Even if I hold your hand and cross over now, yes, yes. Even so, I can be happy.”
Before she died, Ophelia told her to be happy.
That means I knew I wasn’t really ‘really’ happy by his side. It was as he said.
Remember what you left behind
Because the things I’m holding are so insignificant. There was a time when I thought that there would be no regrets even if I put everything down and just followed her.
Not now.
I knew the foolishness that was deceiving myself.
He knew the greed he was hiding.
You can never be happy in that state.
“You will keep looking back.”
Shoot, I heard the sound of waves. It was a sea he had never been to with Ophelia. The sand was golden. Ophelia was standing barefoot on the sand. White foam tickled his white ankles one after another.
“I was trying to hate you.”
“It’s not me, it’s the key that will save the fate of Elodie, who will only appear after I die, so give me something to do. Do you even think so?”
“Huh.”
“Do you hate dying for me now?”
“no.”
It can’t be. Beside me shaking my head, Ophelia built a sand castle.
Stacked up, stacked up, the sand castle didn’t last long and just crumbled under the waves.
However, the small fence built inside was unharmed. A dry ribbon and dried grass swayed in the wind. Even though it was a salty white sandy beach, white flowers bloomed modestly and tickled my toes.
“Well, thanks…… I destroyed even the damn goddess, and I was the only one left. Now I can do whatever I want.”
White flowers were pouring down like rain in the air. Ophelia was silent for a moment. On the suffocatingly quiet beach, it was only me and Ophelia living and breathing.
The new sun rising over the horizon colored the white flowers with gold. It looked like hope.
“Really, are you going to be happy?”
“Huh.”
“Even if I become happy, I won’t forget, will I?”
“Huh.”
“Am I still the prettiest in the world?”
“Huh.”
“I am still unlucky in this world. It’s the worst that everyone is happy except me.”
“Huh.”
“But I will look after you because the future is good for all of you to eat well and live well together.”
“Huh…….”
“I think the world you live in could be a blessing.”
Ophelia laughed. It was a smile like a goddess blessing the one and only believer.
The ‘original’ Ophelia also had divine qualifications.
If she had been a perfect goddess, even if she had been gifted with too much of her power, her existence would not have been threatened by such a vessel at all.
However, the goddess has fallen into a creature that is nothing more than a monster, and she even tried to use the vessels she was born with with her own power to destroy the world.
Even though the ‘original’ Ophelia knew the truth, she simply died helplessly from the inflammation of the world.
However, the goddess summoned Emilia’s soul from another world.
Possibility to change everything. The key to stop the ‘end’ of the world.
But I don’t know myself.
But not as much as I understand myself.
A place where you can be eaten by a sense of inferiority and disappear as it is.
To prevent that proud Ophelia from accepting the ‘key’ that will make the life of Elodie, who will be loved by everyone on her behalf after her death, into a happy ending.
However, Ophelia and Emilia became friends.
Sometimes saving the world starts with little things like that.
Ophelia wanted to save the world for Emilia.
The goddess lost her name.
Emilia completely sacrificed herself for Ophelia.
Together with the ‘heart’ that Ophelia vomited out all of her energy and sealed during her lifetime.
As a result, Ophelia replaced the fallen goddess and became a perfect goddess.
A true goddess who loved humans, loved by humans, and tried to save humans.
“bye.”
Ophelia smiled brightly.
A new god of this world has sent off his only friend.
It was a new beginning.

* * *

It smelled like a flower that didn’t fit the season.
Spring must have been far from coming. It smelled as clear as the snoring of a heartbroken goddess.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a man’s wide eyes, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion. I quietly opened my eyes and looked around the room.
It was a room inside the Marquis of Windrose.
The room was unfamiliar. A woven, multicolored stitching street was laid out on the armchair. A warm fire was still burning in the fireplace.
Perhaps it was Dorothy’s work, or above the fireplace, little dolls made of cotton were wrapped in silk ribbons and smiling.
The thick books that the Marquis Windrose used to refer to when conducting government affairs were also lined up on the table for some reason.
I bowed my head next to the bedside where I was lying and gently brushed the hair of the man who was half-floored. He rubbed the frown on his forehead with his fingertips. It was interesting to see the man’s face unfold unconsciously.
Even though I had been lying down for a long time, it was not difficult at all to move my body.
When I think back on it, the time when I saw this man slept defenselessly in front of me… … .
It was the last time I was very young. Even calling him ‘brother’ was considered a sense of entitlement, so it was seldom called.
“Sir Laertes Hope.”
Even with a small whisper, the man hardly ever woke up.
There was a time when I thought that I would die for someone and cut off all lingering feelings with it.
Now I can say no.
It was difficult to say that I would die for someone.
It was more difficult to say that we would live together for someone else.
“I came here to say hello to Ophelia.”
To say that you unconditionally hang yourself because you love him, or that you give your all to that person.
I’ve learned that it’s not the right answer.
“brother.”
I was able to confess that I would live in a different way.
Slowly, I saw the man’s eyelids open. The moment he saw me, a light entered the man’s eyes.
They had brilliant purple eyes as if they were looking at the salvation of this world. Even if thousands of diamonds were laid out in the valley where the rainbow floats, it wouldn’t shine like that.
I now know the name of that. There was a time when even just one person wanted someone to look at me like that.
There was a time when I thought that I could throw my life away, like a devoted partner, hundreds of times for that purpose.
“…….”
The man who had opened his lips as if to say something, finally closed it and held out his arm to me. I hugged him and smiled.
“I’m back.”
From afar, ‘My girl is awake!’ and a cry was heard. Woodang-tang-tang, the sound of a chair falling and ‘what?!’ And the voice of the Marquis, who seems to have lost his body and rushed to this place.
‘Honey, wait, you were changing clothes! One arm of the jacket is turned over!’ The voice of the Marquis, who cried out.
Not sure what else to say, I decided to close my eyes for a moment in Laertes’ arms. Oddly enough, I laughed.
Tomorrow, the day after, and the next day.
I, Emilia Klee, decided to live with the people I love.
With a heart that is happier than anyone else.
