The Obsessive Maniac Is Trying To Confine Me

Chapter 179 The estate of Ruad was in disarray over the recent disappearances.When a group of knights arrived, they tacked up a poster, and everyone chattered. As the knights moved out of the way, someone read aloud what was posted. “There is someone impersonating the Savior?” The content was truly astonishing. Recently, there are people who pretend to be the savior. She looks just like the savior, and says she is the savior. “What a bastard!” “How dare you pretend to be the Savior!”Dylan took a step back and looked at the people chattering in anger. Rose had made him do this.Why did it bother him so much?Wouldn’t it have been better if he hadn’t missed the fake last night in the cabin? Maybe it wasn’t necessary to put up a poster like this. Dylan let out a dry sigh. A terrible feeling of self-doubt washed over him.It was then. “Hey, is that smoke coming from over there?” “Smoke? Isn’t that where the lord’s castle is?” Dylan quickly turned his head toward Lord Ruad’s castle.Thick smoke was rising in the distance, like a fire.Something had happened. ***** Paladins are attacking! The lord glared at the woman impersonating the Savior. It’s all because of this bitch. Because of this girl…! “Take her… to jail right now…!” “My lord.” Then, a calm voice called the lord. The lord turned his head to see who it was.He saw a man with a relaxed expression approaching this way. “Vis-Viscount Ascent.” “I don’t see why you should be paying attention to her, given the urgency of the situation.” “…….” “I have received the letter as well. So, how about handing over that woman to me and the lord solving the problems in front of you?” The lord nodded in agreement. I want to tear that woman apart with my own hands right now, but the priority is to solve the paladins who have invaded the castle. “Okay, Viscount Ascent. I will leave for a moment.” “Leave this to me.” Anri grabbed the woman’s shoulder. Soon he and the knights dragged the woman away. Anri said quietly while watching the lords and knights disappearing in the distance.“This way.” “Yes? But this way….” When Anri tried to head in a different direction than the prison, the knight raised a question. Then Anri smiled brightly. “I have my own idea.” “Ah…” The knight meekly understood Anri’s words. However, after a while, Anri took a sparsely populated road, and doubts arose again. This is a place where no one sets foot. Why in a place like this… Then Anri stopped. “This should be enough.” “Viscount, why is this place… ugh!” Anri quickly drew his sword and swung his sword at the knights. It happened so fast, the knights didn’t even get a chance to scream before they fell to the ground.Rose watched the scene calmly without blinking an eye. “It’s strange, this is not the same person I saw before.” “…….” “Oh, yeah. That reminds me of ‘her’.” “By her, you mean the Savior?” Anri did not deny it. It was positive. “Anri.” “…….” “Why did you help me?” “Helped you? I don’t know, for now….” Anri raised the sword that had cut the knights. “It depends on your answer.” He ran the tip of his sword over the veil covering the woman’s face. “It’s definitely the same. I don’t know which one is real. Who are you?” “…….” “No, I shouldn’t ask which one is real. Who’s real, you or the Savior?” “And if I say I’m real, can you believe me?” “Well, I’ll be the judge. First of all, are you the person I met in Evantes a long time ago?” The woman’s eyes cooled coldly as he talked about Evantes. It’s like recalling a bad memory. It’s a look I couldn’t see from the ‘savior’. An expression that can only be made by those who have experienced that day. “You seem to know everything, but why did you pretend you didn’t know me when you met me again in Ruad?” “…….” “Was it part of your plan to approach Ruad as if you didn’t know anything? If that was the case, you wouldn’t have appeared in front of me, the savior person.” “…….” “You really seemed like you didn’t know anything.” The woman blinked slowly. “Then why didn’t you tell the Savior that someone who looked like her had appeared? You’re on the Savior’s side.” On the Savior’s side. A long time ago, he might have thought he could be on her side.Until her behavior became increasingly out of line and intrusive. Anri withdrew the sword. “Actually, it doesn’t matter who is real.” “It doesn’t matter?” “It’s the shell that matters to me.” The woman looked at Anri with interest. “You asked why I helped you? I don’t know if you’re fake or real, but maybe we’re more aligned than you think.” “How?” “In that, we hate the Saviors?” “But you’re on her side.” “It’s all about… this.” Anri gently lowered the black veil. “Someone’s coming, and you’d better get out of here, or I’ll tell them the paladins killed the knights and took you.” “…….” “We’ll finish the conversation another time, but if you want to meet, meet me in the square in a week.” Anri pushed Rose’s back with the last word. Rose disappeared as Anri had told her. “Master Anri!” When Rose disappeared, the knights chased after him from afar. ***** ‘I didn’t need help.’ Even if Anri didn’t help, I thought I’d come out on my own.Before I lost my memories, I wouldn’t have been able to do it, but now it’s different. Anyway, Anri had made it easier for me to get out, so I decided to thank him.I walked out the back door as Anri had told me to and found a crowd gathered around the burning castle. “What the hell is this?” “Why the castle…” I watched the burning castle with them.One day, they’ll know. The fact that the culprit of the disappearance that made the village uproar was none other than the lord they were serving. “You…!” As I was staring at the castle for a while, someone grabbed my arm. As my body pulled back and I turned my head naturally, there was a familiar face. Dark brown hair, red eyes. “… Dylan.” I didn’t know we would meet so soon. “Is this you?” “I was hoping to meet you, Dylan.” “What?” He furrowed his brow in disbelief. “It’s me, Rose.” “…….” “It’s real.” I gave a clear answer, but Dylan was confused. “I found my memory.” “…….” “I also remembered why I lost my memory. If you want to know why I lost my memory…” “I don’t want to hear it.” “…….” You don’t want to hear it? “I don’t want to hear what the fake… is saying. Don’t even think about trying to trick me.” Dylan’s hand gripped my arm, and strength entered. I stood up and stared at him. Red eyes are already starting to waver on the subject of not being fooled. “So, it doesn’t hurt anymore?” “What?” “You suffered because of the curse that Yurtha placed on you. Doesn’t it hurt when you see me now?” “… You, follow me.” Dylan didn’t answer and pulled me with a strong force. I was dragged as he pulled me. “Dylan, where are you taking me?” “…… ” “Dylan.” He didn’t want to listen to me. It was then that I realized how long I had been away from Dylan. Or more accurately, how long the gap had been while I’d lost my memory. “Do you know why I lost my memory?” Even if he’s trying to close his ears like that, I know he’s listening. “My mom gave me a pendant a while ago.” “…….” “That pendant, she said it’ll grant my wishes because my mother placed a spell on it. Isn’t that funny? I didn’t believe it.” I didn’t believe in such childish words. I opened the pendant without expectations and found it empty.That’s when I remembered Celine… <Let’s put what Rose wants inside later.> She advised.At the time, I didn’t want anything.Except for one thing. “I just wanted to go back. I earnestly shouted to the sky for help, but no one listened. So later I made another wish.” I’m not sure if the pendant granted my wish. When I was about to give up almost everything, as Celine said, I put a painting in it. A picture of Celine. “They won’t let me go back anyway….” “…….” “If they’re going to keep me locked up in this living hell….” “… Stop.” “I’d rather just forget everything. Make me like a blank sheet of paper.” “… I said I didn’t want to hear it!” “Erase all the feelings of wanting to go back and even the memories of my hometown. If you’re not going to grant my wish, at least show me some mercy.” “…….” “I prayed for the last time.” I wanted to forget Celine, too.And guess what?One by one, memories began to disappear. When I entered Evantes under the name of Rosie, I lost half of my memories. <Please…> <… Please.> When I met Richard, I lost all my memories. “Dylan.” Dylan, who had been dragging me along, stopped in the middle of a crowd of people. “… Lie.” “…….” “You’re lying.” Dylan lifted his head and looked at me.His wavering red eyes stopped on me and he denied me. “I’m going to reveal right here that you’re a fake.” “…….” “I’m not going… to let you fool me anymore.” “Is that your choice?” Dylan didn’t reply. I interpreted it as positive. “If that’s your choice, do it.” I shook Dylan’s arm violently. Dylan was startled and tried to chase me, but I was one step faster.In front of everyone, I ripped off the veil covering my face. “I’m a fake, impersonating the Savior!”
