SPMB - Side Story Chapter 19
My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone
That night, Orsini drank a ton of whiskey. And he fell asleep, almost fainting.
"Hey!"
In his dream, he was being chased.
"Aren't you standing there?"
He saw black hair moving away from in front of him. It's Kanna. Kanna in his childhood.
"I told you to stand there, you filth!"
Angry. He was always like that. Every time he sees Kanna, his heart heats up. He couldn't bear the heat.
"Hey there!"
Orsini stretched out her hand toward the hair that waved in front of him.
At that moment, It reached him.
A few strands of hair brushed against his fingertips. It was so hot and vivid, as if it had been burned, that he was startled.
Next, a strange impulse arose.
He wants to grab that black hair right away.
Without missing a single thread, he held it all in his hands. And....
And then what?
What on earth does he want to do?
"Evil!"
Orsini grabbed Kanna and pushed her away. The girl falls down with a sharp scream.
"I hate you. Do not come."
She hesitates, falls down on the lawn, and frantically crawls away. Orsini approached her, seized by her sense of being her usurper.
He wanted to take something from her intensely, he wanted to take it away, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
"Hey, filth. I told you not to stand out."
Then Kanna turned white and refuted.
"As long as you don't chase me. Why do you always...."
"I told you to stay out of my sight.."
The moment he screamed, Orsini woke up.
"..."
Orsini looked up at the ceiling. And he understood everything.
It's natural.
Of course, he feels terrible about himself.
He behaved so terribly, so it's no wonder he was terrible. How much less could he possibly beat his father?
Haven't he heard roughly what his Father endured for Kanna?
Even thinking about it made Orsini feel awe-inspiring, but there was no way he could deal with someone who had bullied her so viciously.....
"Damn it. Support and stir-fry among yourselves and live well."
Orsini cursed and buried his face in the pillow.
Yes, live well.
Father and Kanna. And Kalen, Sylvienne, and Raphael. He wants these guys to live well together.
That's all for me.
***
"Well thought out."
Clap clap clap.
Sylvien clapped.
"It's the smartest decision you've ever made."
"..."
"Shall we throw a party to celebrate?"
Should he kill him?
Orsini glared at him with a displeased expression. Then he put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it.
"I absolutely hate cigarette smoke."
"I know."
"Besides, I think you've forgotten, but I am the King of this country."
"Then behead me for insulting the royal family, Your Majesty."
He puffed out smoke and sneered wickedly at Sylvien's handsome face.
To be honest, he was arguing. Because he was dying to fight.
But Sylvien just smiled kindly.
"It's done. I've seen your crazy behavior since I was young, and now It seems like a cute joke."
"Oh, is that so? That is truly merciful."
"Anyway, if there's anything you want, just tell me. Let me give you a gift of consolation."
"I do not need."
"Okay, of course, you don't need it. Isn't this a decision that will soon fall apart anyway?"
Sylvien clasped his hands and placed them on his knees.
"How long do you think it will last this time?"
It's called 'Orsini Damn Luminescence Day'.
Sylvien, Raphael, and Kalen called it that, and Kanna only knew it as 'that day.'
"What was the longest period? I think it was 3 days...."
"Hey."
Orsini chewed the cigarette tightly with his teeth.
"Aren't you jealous?"
"That can't be right."
"But why am I the only one going crazy?"
"That's because I decided not to be swayed by jealousy."
"Does that mean you decide?"
"I can do it. It looks like you can't do it."
Sylvien shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal. Rather, he was amazed at Orsini's seizures every time.
How can he be so unable to control his emotions?
It looked more like a beast with a burning body than a human.
"Kanna cannot survive without constant sharing of sacred power. That's something one of us can't do alone. Damn, I know that."
"Is it so. You know very well. Moreover, I was accepting it to some extent. Therefore...."
Sylvien trailed off.
"There's only one thing you can't stand."
"What is that?"
“Alessandro Addis.”
"..."
"Isn't it hard to bear that person?"
Orsini puffed on his cigarette without replying. That's right. Sylvien hit the nail on the head.
"Nice guy. You have always been an unlucky bastard."
"You too have been yellow since you were a boy."
They exchanged words one by one as if they were saying well. Orsini just got up.
"I'm going."
"Wait."
Sylvien handed him a map.
"Would you like to go to this village marked on the map?"
"What?"
"You've probably heard that relics from the Southern Continent have been discovered recently, right?"
Orsini nodded.
The southern continent was swallowed up by a black fog and destroyed and relics from that time have been appearing one by one recently.
Orsini didn't know where, how, or who discovered it and brought it out to the world. It is just being traded secretly through shadows.
The problem was that the artifact was very dangerous. It was an item imbued with ancient power that was called the Age of Magic.
"There is a report that there is a dealer of that relic in this town. Please go and check."
"What if you find it? Should I catch him?"
"No, you don't have to. We have already secured the identity and size of the relic merchants to some extent."
He then handed me a document containing information.
"I plan to let it run wild for a while until I dig up the roots. So, all you have to do is purchase all the relics from the Southern Continent and come."
Is it just reconnaissance? It was a boring mission.
"Sure."
However, Orsini obediently put the map in his arms.
It just worked out well. Even so, he didn't want to go home.
Of course, Kanna doesn't care whether he's home or not.
***
Orsini only realized this after arriving.
'That's where it is.'
"Sylvien Valentino, you son of a bitch, you fooled me."
Everything that was said about the Southern Continent relics was probably false information. His purpose was to have two fathers and sons, Orsini and Alessandro, meet.
"Buy potatoes! These are delicious potatoes!"
"Buy tomatoes, tomatoes!"
"This is a fresh fish just caught this morning!"
Orsini frowned as he passed the village marketplace.
It's more rural than he thought. Could it be that Alessandro Addis also buys ingredients from places like this?
'No way. No way.'
There's no way that guy could buy something at a market like this....
"I don't need carrots. Please take it out."
For a moment. This voice.
"Didn't you say you were going to make stew and eat it? Then carrots are a must, a must!"
"I decide that."
"You can't be such a picky eater! If you eat carefully, you won't grow taller?"
"I am already grown up."
"What! My son grew taller until he was 26! Even a bachelor will grow bigger there if he eats carrots!"
"Please take out the carrots because they don't have to grow."
"Agh, kid! You should also know how to listen to adults! Since you're a regular, I'll give it to you at half price, half price! Try it!"
"I said no. Please take out the carrots."
Orsini swallowed his saliva and slowly turned around.
No way, that can't be possible.
It couldn't be him who was having such a stupid argument...
'Crazy.'
It was him.
"Okay then."
"Come again, bachelor. No wait! Take the carrot!"
The man pretended not to hear and walked quickly. But he stopped after only a few steps.
Right in front of Orsini.
"..."
The two looked at each other in silence.
How many seconds passed like that?
"Oh my, why does the bachelor walk so fast! I barely caught up!"
The merchant who came running quickly put carrots into the basket. Then he looked at Orsini and said in surprise.
"Huh? Were you the bachelor twins?"
"No."
Alessandro answered calmly.
"This is my son."
"Just kidding! Anyone can see that you're brothers. Let's see, does this seem to be the bachelor's older brother?"
The merchant burst into laughter and left.
'Who is that bastard's brother?'
What about him? Wouldn't he know he was the younger brother? What makes him think he is the older brother?
Orsini asked, resisting the urge to kick the merchant's ass.
"What on earth are you doing now?"
Alessandro answered calmly.
"I bought cooking ingredients."
"Why...."
"It's a hobby."
"Hobby? Cooking?"
"Yes. That's good. Let's have a meal together."
Alessandro passed him. No, not really. Orsink doesn't want to eat with him...
"What are you doing if I'm not coming?"
Alessandro glared at him with sharp eyes.
"Are you sure you don't like my cooking? Are you jumping to the conclusion that the food I made will be terrible trash anyway?"
Moreover, for some reason, he seemed to have a great sense of harm when it came to cooking.
Orsini hesitated for a moment and then followed him.
'Sylvien Valentino, I'm lost.'
This is more entertaining that I expect it to be XD
