SPMB - Chapter 210
My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone
"Mites?"
For a moment, Kanna was startled.
What is a mite?
Did a mite sound come out of this mouth lust now?
Kanna raised her arms and was startled. What are these short, chubby arms? This palm is like a maple leaf!
"Ah, aww!"
A short sound came out of her mouth. She got goosebumps.
'Am I a baby now?'
Nonsense!
'Where am I?'
Kanna stretched out her short neck as hard as she could to check the space. And she was sure.
'This is not Addis Mansion.'
Could it be a roughly built barracks? Kanna was lying flat in the corner of the barracks.
'Why am I in a place like this?'
Her name is the daughter of a Duke, but why is she alone in such a shabby place?
'It will work out somehow. Let's quickly go back to the proper time.'
Kanna has no idea where this is, but since her future self doesn't know, it's probably not a big deal, maybe. Kanna raised her waist to draw a drinking line and then fell backward. She hadn't thought about the weight of her head.
'Fuckin' baby body!'
Kanna struggled for a while again and barely managed to turn over. She then barely raised her hand. She had hands like chubby sausages.
She has to bite it and bleed....
"There are no teeth!"
It was then. A tearing scream sounded outside the tent. Kanna was startled and rolled her body into a ball. Her sense of crisis set off an alarm.
'Where the hell am I!'
At that moment, the tent flipped open and a man jumped in.
"Don't come closer! If you come any closer, your daughter......"
That was the end. The man's body was split straight in half.
Kanna turned her head to see the terrible sight. The man died like that, without even a scream.
The next moment, the tent flapped once more. It was Alessandro.
He walked over to Kanna and stood in front of her. Kanna was mesmerized for a moment. He was covered in blood.
Normally she would have thought it was someone else's blood, but now...
'Are you hurt?'
Dump.
Alessandro arrived in front of her and knelt down on his knees. Kanna noticed that blood was flowing from his stomach.
'Why are you hurt like this?'
Does this really happen in the past? Has Alessandro Addis ever been hurt this badly?
At that time, Alessandro lifted his drooping head. He glared at Kanna. Heat blazed in his green eyes.
"Damn you bitch."
“Ugh, mite.”
"Why am I because of you..."
He muttered as if he was chewing and then got up. Then he lifted her up by her waist. He walked quickly and left the tent.
Kanna almost burst out screaming.
'Where am I!'
They were in the middle of an endless desert.
What was even more surprising was that there were corpses all over the sand.
Countless corpses of monsters and people were tangled together, giving off a bloody smell.
It was only then that Kanna realized the tragedy.
The Black Apostle kidnapped her.
And Alexssndro came alone to save her.
'How could he do that alone...?'
Kanna closed her eyes. She couldn't bear to watch.
Then, at some point. She thinks she fell asleep.
'What is a baby's body?'
When she woke up, she found herself sleeping soundly in the crib. It seems that Alessandro brought her safely to the mansion.
'Is Alex going to be okay?'
The injury looked serious.
But what can she do with a baby's body?
After almost an hour of self-torture, Kanna succeeded in making her fingers bleed.
'Damn it, I'm scared to death where I'll end up next.'
Kanna drew a drinking pattern with her small fingers.
***
'I failed again.'
This time it was Addis Mansion.
Kanna looked at the year on the calendar. She was when she was 14 years old.
'It can't go on like this."
She cannot overuse alchemy until she reaches the desired stage. Kanna raised her body.
'There must be an error in this drinking method.'
First, she planned to go to the lab to organize her knowledge and supplement her drinking skills.
At that time, the door burst open and a maid came in.
"You're awake."
The maid who brought the wash water grabbed Kanna's arm violently. She then washed her face immediately.
"You need to get ready quickly. His Excellency the Duke of Addis is coming soon."
"What?"
Kanna roughly slapped away the hand of the maid who was washing her face.
"My father called me?"
"Yes."
Why?
No, that's not it.
'I don't remember anything like this?'
Alessandro asks for a one-on-one meeting with her as a girl?
Something like this has never happened before, not even once in her life! But she soon understood.
She guess her future self came into this body and she have no memory of it.
Come to think of it, Seon-hee was like that too. Neither Seon-hee nor Kanna could remember when she possessed that body. Like a cut-off piece, it remained an empty moment.
'It's different from when I was possessed by Joo-hwa. We had clear memories of each other back then.'
Kanna was deep in thought as she left her dress in the hands of the maid.
'Maybe it's because the time is different.'
Seon-hee, and 14-year-old Kanna.
The time of existence was different from that of her future self. Being in another time had a significant impact.
***
Kanna headed to Alessandro's office.
"Come in."
Just as she was about to open the door and go in, Kanna stopped in her tracks.
There was a breathtakingly beautiful boy there.
He was a boy with silky silver hair and a face like a glass doll, so impressive that it took her by surprise.
It was 17-year-old Sylvienne Valentino.
"A guest has arrived. I'll just go now, Duke of Addis."
"Go ahead."
Sylvienne stood up and paused for a moment as if he suddenly remembered something.
"That boy. Son of Arzenian."
In an instant, Kanna's ears grew twice as big.
'What now?'
Arzenian's son? If it's Arzenian, it must be the name of a divine spirit, right?
"I roughly figured out the location. It will only be a matter of time before we find out."
"I roughly figured out the location. It will only be a matter of time before we find out."
Sylvienne smiled brightly.
"Can Valentino take care of that boy?"
"Do as you wish. Addis will not be involved."
Alessandro spoke in a completely unimpressed voice.
"I will never form a relationship with someone from the Great God Temple. Whatever it is."
"Great. That's how I know it."
Sylvienne turned around again. He stopped once in front of Kanna and bowed his waist politely.
"Nice to meet you, Lady of the Duke of Addis. This is Sylvien Valentino."
Kanna hesitated, then bent her knees and lifted the hem of her skirt.
"In a few years from now, you will be in the social world. I look forward to seeing you at Young Lady's debutante."
Just about that much.
After giving a polite greeting, he passed her. His politeness was awkward.
'Well, he was originally a polite person.'
Now that she thinks about it, Sylvienne didn't ignore her from the beginning. It just gradually changed that way.
"Where are you losing your mind?"
At that time, Alessandro's sharp voice pulled Kanna out of her thoughts.
"Come on."
Kanna sat across from him and studied his face.
'It's really the same.'
No matter what time of day it was, if there was one thing that was the same, it was Alessandro's face.
"Kanna Addis, have you forgotten my warning?"
"Yes?"
"I would have told you not to show your alchemy to others."
He took out a small glass bottle from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"You know what this is, right?"
"...".
She knows. This was the remedy that 14-year-old Kanna gave the stablekeeper not long ago.
The stable keeper was a person who treated Kanna kindly in Addis, and she gave it to him as a gift because he was suffering from chronic abdominal pain.
"How naive."
Tsk, Alex clicked his tongue.
"He is healthy. He knew the value of your medicine and pretended to be sick. He sold it to a merchant for a high price."
"..."
"It was being traded at a high price on the black market."
Kanna was surprised by the truth she didn't know. Did something like this happen?
Alessandro gave a stern warning.
"Don't do this again."
Kanna became embarrassed and Iowered her head.
Now she knows very well why he said that.
'I didn't know why before...'
At that time, he reached out and lifted her chin. She forced her gaze to meet him.
"Answer me, Khanna Addis."
" ..."
Kanna fixed her thoughts by staring into his eyes.
That wasn't Alex back then. It wasn't his eyes that were burning with blood.
He looked like a man suffocating under terrible fatigue. Kanna knew what made him like this.
"All right. By the way, did you get any sleep?"
For a moment, Alessandro's brow furrowed. But it only lasted a moment, and let go of her chin and then leaned his body back.
"Yes."
Lie.
She could see it now. He is now in a very dangerous situation. She knew because she had seen Alex when he was young.
'Are you already under the curse of insomnia?'
Kanna thought for a moment and then opened her mouth.
'I have to tell you.'
There is no need for a long explanation, Alex. This one word will suffice.
Just as she was about to open her mouth.
"Sir Alessandro. Can I come in?"
Then, a voice interrupted her. The door burst open before he even got permission.
'Ah...'
Claude, a boy of her age, walked in with a serious face. Then he whispered something into Alessandro's ear.
"So I think you should hurry and go."
"I get it. Let's go right away."
Alessandro stood up. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned to Kanna.
"Mark my words, Kanna."
Then he went out with Claude.
"..."
He's gone.
And he probably won't be back for a while. Alessandro was often absent from the mansion for several months.
It was like that originally. He often returned every few months, stayed only half a day, and then left again.
'I didn't know why he was so busy at the time...'
Kanna sighed. She cupped her face with both hands and calmed her pounding heart.
'Sorry, I will definitely repay my debt.'
First, do what he has to do.
Kanna stood up.
'Let's go to Raphael.'
Unforgettable kindness.
Despite saving one person's life, and gaining a frighteningly blind loyalty because of it, Kanna couldn't remember even a second of that moment. She was as unimpressed as she was by other people's work. So she just felt like it was a burden she couldn't bear.
Now she thinks she knows why. That wasn't what Kanna did back then.
'It was what I did now.'
