SPMB - Chapter 202

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone

At that time, Alessandro narrowed his brows and held his head.

"Damnit."

Only then did Kanna notice that his face was filled with cold sweat.

"Wait. I'll make you an antidote right now."

Kanna had no idea that Seon-hee's body was this weak. Her time was delayed because she fainted. Kanna said as she hurriedly took out her tools from her pack.

"You can't die, Alex."

"Shut up."

He pursed his lips with difficulty.

Kanna drew blood on her finger and drew an alchemy pattern on the floor. It seemed like it would take a while because she had to make each ingredient one by one.

"I'm making it right now, so just hang on for an hour."

"..."

"Alex?"

There is no sound of breathing. Kanna was seized by an ominous premonition and turned her body.

He was lowering his head. His red hair hung limply, bathed in the deep blue dawn.

His motionless face was like a statue frozen in time forever. Like... Like a dead person.

Kanna's fingertips trembled. No way, that can't be possible.

Kanna, terrified, slowly stretched out her hand. She placed it on his hot, sweat-soaked neck.

'He's alive."

Thank god. He's still alive.

Kanna breathed a sigh of relief. She then focused on creating an antidote.

It was then.

"Seon-hee."

For a moment, Kanna's hand holding the glass bottle stiffened. This voice...

"Get away from him."

Kanna got up and looked back. She saw a group of men approaching from afar.

The person in the lead was a man she knew.

Jerome...

A black apostle who worships alchemy more than anyone else. He stood leading his companions.

"It's been a long time, Seon-hee. It's been almost a few months, right?"

How many people? 

Kanna quickly counted the numbers with her eyes.

"This is the first time I've seen you since Seon-hee was imprisoned in the Great Hall. Your complexion was very damaged."

A total of fifteen people. They were all faces that Seon-hee knew.

At that time, Jerome suggested.

"Come here, Seonhee. If you don't want to be with the spirits, we will protect you."

Of course, he's serious. Jerome worshiped alchemy, not spirits..

He was a man who was ready to betray God at any time if he could obtain Seon-hee's blood, which was a good ingredient for alchemy.

"No."

Kanna stepped back and glanced down at Alessandro. He is still unconscious.

"I'm not going with you."

"Is it so. I thought you would. Then run away. I will catch you." 

Jerome nodded calmly as if he knew that would happen.

"But please go alone. Leave the man there."

There was hostility in his eyes.

"Alessandro Addis appears to be unwell."

Alexlssandro was the Black Apostle's natural enemy. A chance to defeat Alessandro. There is no way Jerome would miss this opportunity.

"Nо."

"Yes?"

"There will be no handing this person over to you. So go back."

Jerome chuckled at those words.

"You still have a weak heart, Seon-hee. Or are you in love with Alessandro's handsome face?"

But Kanna didn't listen anymore. She quickly turned around. After putting her luggage on her shoulder. She immediately pulled Alexandro by the arm.

Hurry up and help him run away!

"Ugh!"

Bang!

Kanna's body fell down. He could not bear the weight of Alessandro. She struggled beneath his heavy body.

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

"Oh my God, what are you doing!"

The Black Apostles held their stomachs and burst into laughter.

'Damn it!'

This man, why is it so heavy!

However, Kanna did not give up and barely managed to get up.

Groaning, I tugged on his arm and moved forward. Jerome shouted happily at her.

"Okay, try running away somewhere. It will be quite fun!"

Then he shouted to his colleagues.

"Everyone heard, right? Kill Alessandro, but save Seon-hee's life! After all, all you need is a bleeding body!"

A loud laugh exploded like firecrackers.

"Now, It's time to enjoy the hunt."

***

“Heo-eok, heo-eok.”

Kanna gasped.

The Black Apostles were really enjoying the hunt. Arrows flew from here and there, narrowly grazing Kanna.

"They're like Cassil!"

Oh my God. She never thought she would have this dirty experience again. This time, she even had the weakness of having to protect a man who had fainted!

'I need to give him the antidote quickly!'

If she delays any longer, it will become really dangerous.

"Alex, if you die, no, you understand!"

Kanna put him on her shoulder and took one step at a time, whining. Fortunately, his breath was still touching the back of her neck. He's still alive.

Not yet.

'We need to find a safe place quickly.'

Kanna had no intention of just running away like this.

However, Alessandro. This person, who was addicted to poison and was on the verge of death, had to be placed in a safe place and then a counterattack had to be launched.

"If you die, absolutely not. Really. If you die, I will kill you!"

She was talking nonsense and gibberish. And that moment.

'Ah.'

It was almost an instinctive intuition.

The hair on the back of her neck stands up. She felt a strange feeling of something rushing towards me.

Kanna spun Alessandro's body around and hugged him.

"..."

The next moment, an intense pain pierced her forearm. The arrow aimed at Alessandro got stuck in her forearm.

"Ugh...."

Tears welled up. Kanna gritted her teeth. It was the pain of her raw flesh being torn and a fire burning inside her skin.

"Ah, ugh, damn it."

She's dying from pain!

But she's not dead yet. Kanna pulled Alessandro back.

"... Lose."

At that time, Alessandro's lips moved.

Has he come to his senses? 

Kanna listened to his voice.

"Huh? What? Say it again!"

"Go..."

"Uh?"

"Go away."

"..."

This is real! In a moment of sudden heat, Kanna grabbed his arm tightly.

"You don't seem to know, but you're on the verge of death! If I leave it like this, you, not the carrot, will become extinct!"

The moment she spoke sharply, Kanna's eyes sparkled.

"There it is!"

She found a small cave under a rock covered in vines. Kanna dragged him with all her might and crushed him inside.

That's it.

Now, it was time to fight back.

Kanna slowly turned around.

"What are you doing?"

"Why aren't you running away?"

"Are you scared?"

The teasing voices of the Black Apostles rang like an echo within the forest.

They knew Seon-hee very well.

Seon-hee from a few months ago.

Seon-hee before she was betrayed by the Gods and imprisoned in the Great Hall before she went crazy.

Seon-hee was a doctor to her core. Even with a knife held to her throat, she had no thought of harming others. She was that kind of woman.

What the black apostles knew was Seon-hee at that time.

A woman of burning faith who would rather die than kill others.

'I guess that's why he's taking that leisurely approach."

Kanna lowered her head. An arrow pierced her forearm and blood flowed.

It just worked out well.

She swiped the blood with her finger. She lifted her bloody finger and drew a line in the air.

No drops of blood fell.

Like water droplets in weightlessness, they form in the air and follow the trace of the finger.

A circle is drawn in an instant, and dozens of lines and shapes fill it.

Kanna quickly drew a clear picture of the drinking method in Seon-hee's memory.

And finally, the moment when the blood-dropped drinking ritual was completed.

"Wait a minute, what is Seon-hee doing now...?"

Blacklight exploded. It crashed like a wave and became a tsunami, completely engulfing the forest. The forest at dawn was buried in deeper darkness.s!

"Now, wait! What the hell is this?"

"Run away!"

And in the darkness, screams, moans, and panicked voices echo.

Kanna just quietly watched the darkness.

"Huh, huh, my body, my body is freezing!"

"Help me!"

And waited.

May everything stop.

As expected, soon all the noise stopped. The loud moans and sobs were no longer heard.

"Ha..."

Kanna sighed.

How long has it been like that? 

Slowly, very slowly, the black fog began to thin. And it was finally revealed.

A forest of ice sparkling with silver.

The forest was completely frozen. Even a single blade of grass or a leaf on a tree branch was frozen white and sparkled smoothly.

Kanna stared at the unrealistic scene in bewilderment.

The black apostles who were struggling or running away were frozen in place like ice statues.

'Jerome probably succeeded in escaping.'

So, she guessed he would be able to meet Kanna later.

Kanna stared at the scene she had created with dark eyes, then raised her hand again. With her bloody hands, she drew magic once again.

The moment it is completed, a storm hits.

A harsh wind swept sharply through the forest. The ice cracked and broke into pieces.

The broken ice fluttered like snowpowder. It sparkled and swirled in the moonlight.

It was as enchanting as starlight falling. Although in reality, it is a scene of terrible slaughter.

Kanna stood blankly in the light powder. Then, suddenly, she turned around.

When did he come out of the cave?

Alessandro, who was leaning against a tree, was staring intently at her back.

The back, was covered in dazzling brilliance, with black hair fluttering about.

"You..."

His lips trembled as he was caught up in the sight for a while.

"What on earth are you?" 

Then he fainted again.

***

"Do not die."

Alessandro realized. He said that he was now wandering around the edge of death.

"Do not die."

Every time he became confused, a stern voice calmed him down.

"You can't die."

In fact, the woman couldn't even think about treating her injuries. With the arrow still stuck in her forearm, she creates an antidote.

She let it flow little by little into his mouth. While she's bleeding profusely.

'Then she dies from excessive bleeding.'

He wanted to say that, but there was nothing he could do now. Other than calmly taking the antidote she gave him and drinking it.

At this moment, his life depended solely on the woman.

"You can't die, I will never, ever let you die..."

Voices continue to be heard through his blurred mind.

Alessandro opened his eyes with difficulty. He saw a woman with a nervous face. When their eyes met, she spoke pleadingly. 

"You can't die. Huh? Okay?"

"..."

"Hang in there. You have to endure it."

Je thought that voice was like a prayer.

Alessandro closed his eyes.

The night deepened.
