SPMB - Chapter 236

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone

That was the beginning.

Memories of a future that did not exist for the 20-year-old continued to flow.

***

"Duchess Valentino is staying now. Lord Kalen permitted entry..."

My heart was beating like crazy when I heard those words.

Alessandro walked. He couldn't remember how he got to that room. As he was about to grab the door handle, the door burst open.

It was Kanna.

“Ah.”

For a moment, it seemed like time had stopped.

Alessandro stretched out his hand and cupped her cheek as if possessed. Her hair was pulled back, covering half of her face.

The moment their eyes met, a shiver ran from head to toe.

She's back.

Finally, she came back.

It was a life he devoted entirely to being captivated by these eyes. He couldn't help but notice.

“Kanna Addis.”

Ruler of his life.

"You're back."

***

Another memory kept creeping up on him.

"Yes. I will prepare the documents through the butler."

Then Kanna looks on with a surprised face.

"Do you want to withdraw?"

"No! Not at all! Please let me do it, divorce!"

However, after hearing the next words, Alessandro completely changed his mind.

A coastal village in the Kingdom of Yalden? Was it her dream to go and live in a place like that?

'That won't work.'

How should he refuse? 

While he was thinking carefully, Kanna struck him.

"And I will never come back."

"Did you hear? Did you hear that?"

"Alessandro, did you hear that?" 

"Did you hear what she said?"

It was unfortunate for the evil spirits who were trying to incite anger, but he had no intention of blaming Kanna at all.

"I changed my mind. I will not allow divorce."

When Kanna, who was very angry, disappeared, the evil spirits who had been talking a while ago ran wild.

"That's great, Alessandro!"

"Don't you find it offensive? After ruining your life, she's going to go find happiness alone!"

"Follow her and kill her!"

"Kill the woman who ruined your life!"

"Shut up."

He muttered to the demons and closed his eyes

***

Another memory came up.

"Hey, are you still alive?"

"The string is really long! After all, we don't live eternal life for nothing!”

"It's a shame. If it weren't for the curse of eternal life, you would have ended up like us this time! Kaha hahaha!"

"At this point, isn't it a blessing rather than a curse?"

At that time, Claude, a blond boy, brought warm herbal tea.

"Are you okay?"

"No problem."

"How did you fall into such a trap? You are not like Alessandro."

He fell into a trap prepared by the Black Apostle and suffered all sorts of hardships. Perhaps he would have died if it had not been for the curse of eternal life.

"But do your arms really grow?"

Claude stared at the spot where Alessandro's right arm had been. The spot that has now been cut cleanly away.

"Yes."

"How could that happen...?"

"Don't ask anything."

"Yes."

Is it because of the curse of eternal life? 

His body was stuffed at the moment his growth stopped.

Therefore, no matter what catastrophe occurred, or even if an arm was cut off like now, it grew and recovered on its own like a monster.

The moment when physical time stopped. It will return perfectly to its original state.

'It feels like I'm being forced to go back in time.'

Actually, not getting old is already a monster. Nothing is surprising anymore.

"It must still be painful. Take some painkillers..."

"I do not need it."

"Rather, the problem is that Celia's poison does not work. It seems like you've developed a tolerance."

"Tell Celia to make the medicine stronger."

At that moment, a repulsion flashed in Claude's eyes.

"It's not possible. Now that medicine is also very dangerous."

"I don't care."

"You'd rather retire. Please pass the title on to your son."

"I will."

"When?"

"In due season."

"So when was that?"

Claude sighed.

"I will help you by your side for the rest of your life. Alessandro is like a father to me."

“Kanna..."

"Yes?"

"Kanna, how is she doing these days?"

It's been half a year since he couldn't go home because of that trap. He was curious about Kanna's current status.

"..."

Was it a too sudden change of topic? 

Silence fell.

After a while, Claude answered ca Imly.

"According to reliable sources, I hear she is doing very well."

"Is it."

"Of course, there are some inconveniences living with her stepmother and stepsisters." 

Claude continued speaking quickly.

"If you want to prevent all of that, carry the Young Lady by your side."

"Do I take it with me wherever I go like you do? That's dangerous."

"What about me? Am I not in danger?"

"You are a knight. If you don't like it, quit."

"What I'm saying is, please don't worry about that."

Claude sighed deeply and looked pitifully at his severed arm.

"She's doing well, so don't worry. Please take care of your health. No matter how much it grows again, it is said that you did it after losing your arm....."

"Quiet. Noisy."

***

The memories kept flooding back.

Even memories from the past.

< In a future where we can remember the same past. >

< See you again. >

"What the hell is this..."

Alessandro put down the letter.

He couldn't figure out the meaning of this letter. Doesn't it feel like a goodbye? 

She wrote this letter after having a normal conversation just a little while ago?

"Seon-hee, wake up."

Then Seon-hee, who had been lying face down on the desk, stood up awkwardly.

The moment their eyes met, he realized.

These are not the eyes of the Seon-hee he knows.

That was the moment he thought about it.

"Do you remember how I said I was the daughter of the owner of this body and that you would raise me?"

Just 10 minutes ago, the words Seon-hee said while holding his wrist flashed through his mind.

No way.

No way.

***

Alessandro closed his eyes tightly as memories flooded him. His head felt like it was going to explode.

Stop.

Now stop.

But no matter what, another memory struck him with force.

"The woman who possessed my body."

Seon-hee laughed.

"My daughter."

She touched his now very swollen belly and smiled cruelly.

"How do you think she was able to come to the past?"

Alessandro did not answer.

Now he hardly believed anything she said.

Everything was full of doubts, but he instinctively realized it.

That woman is not that woman.

The woman who captivated him disappeared.

Maybe, as she said many times, she really is Seon-hee's daughter.

However, he did not completely believe it. It was too absurd a story to accept.

"It's thanks to the drinking method I left as a clue. And I also went to the future with that drinking method."

In an instant, the smile disappeared from Seon-hee's face.

"What would I have done in the future?"

She muttered in a voice like dry sand.

"How many futures do you think I've repeated? How much time do you think it took to get back to this moment?"

Seon-hee's eyes sparkled with madness. But it wasn't the madness it was before. These are not the eyes of a mouse that has gone crazy after being cornered.

Rather, it was similar to a divine spirit.

A spirit who lived for hundreds of years and went crazy.

"Alessandro, do you know what awaits you in the future?"

"..."

"The woman you are infatuated with. She's this baby growing in my belly right now."

Seon-hee smiled brightly and patted her stomach.

"This child will die before reaching the age of 30."

"Shut up."

This is the nonsense of a crazy woman. He glared at her like he was going to kill her.

"In all the countless futures I've repeated, this child has never survived."

However, Seon-hee's voice was unnervingly calm.

"In all futures, she died before reaching thirty years."

That was strange.

She was clearly a woman who spoke in a voice filled with anxiety until yesterday.

It was as if she had experienced decades in just one day as if she had been broken by all kinds of winds and forces and had been forcibly liberated.

"There was just one thing. I saw a future where it seemed like she would survive, but..."

At that moment, Seon-hee's face looked like that of an old man.

"I am so tired. I can't do this anymore. Now I'm tired of wandering through time and repeating life like an experiment."

"How..."

Alessandro's voice became harsh. 

"What kind of bullshit are you talking about?"

"I'm done here, you?"

Seonhee answered the question with a question. As if piercingly, the gaze flew out.

"How far can you go for this child?"

***

"Stop."

Alessandro tried hard to block out the memories that came flooding back.

Now stop.

He doesn't want to remember anymore.

He placed a hand on his throbbing forehead. He had been sweating for some time. Alessandro breathed heavily for a moment. He barely calmed down.

"Uhm......."

At that time, Kanna, who was sleeping, tossed and turned. She buries her face in his chest.

"..."

Alessandro's body stiffened from that gentle body temperature. He was once again embarrassed.

This is a woman he spent several nights with.....

Maybe it's because of a few pieces of newly recollected memories.

But after a while, Alessandro reached out and stroked Kanna's cheek.

'No. It's still me. It's still okay.'

There were just a few memories. It was just a fragment of a moment.

Therefore, he was still a twenty-year-old Alessandro.

Suddenly, Seon-hee's voice, which he had overheard in the fragments of his memory, came to mind.

"In all futures, she died before reaching thirty years."

Alessandro asked this question.

Crazy woman. Such bullshit!

'As long as I'm by her side, Kanna is safe.'

As long as she is in his arms like this, no one can threaten Kanna. So there is no way Kanna will die soon.

But why is he so nervous?

His heart pulsed uneasily. An ominous haze-like haze permeated the sky.

He patted Kanna and scolded himself.

It'll be okay. Because he will protect her.

Even if his body and soul are torn apart, may this woman always sleep peacefully.

Alessandro kissed the sleeping woman's forehead.

"Good night."

Please have a nice dream.

Because I will take all your nightmares.

Oh my! Alessandro POV! 🥺
