BANG!
"You!"
Yuno appeared, his golden hair fluttering. Golden magic swirled around him as he held a vial of liquid in his hand.
Shish, who had been holding Titiana's hand tightly, calmly greeted his opponent.
“Hello, Tower Master.”
“I told you not to seduce Titiana!”
"Titiana seduced me first. There's nothing I can do about it, right?"
“Ugh.”
Shish smiled as he looked at the Tower Master, who couldn't refute him.
While Yuno and Titiana remained in their bedroom, Shish "accidentally" encountered the wizard he had planted in the magic tower. He encountered the wizard in the dining room and asked him to guide him to the magic tower.
Since the elevator in the Magic Tower cannot be used without a Magic Stone, it is natural to ask a wizard to accompany him.
He heard from the wizard that there was a woman in the magic tower's bedroom, and that she had done something with the wizards who were wandering around the magic tower's bedroom, and that she died at the magic tower's hand.
After that, the Tower Master also prohibited people from entering the floor where the bedroom and study were located.
“I guess there’s nothing we can do about it. But why are you here?”
Ah, you stupid magician.
Shish suppressed the laughter that threatened to burst out and replaced it with a smile.
“You don’t know where this place is, do you?”
It was clear that he had no surveillance at all, as he possessed immense power and the Magic Tower was under his authority.
In the first place, no intruders can enter the Magic Tower, and who would dare to do something right in front of the Magic Tower owner?
Shish did a great job of navigating the dark underworld.
“And why is Titi in such a state?”
“Have you ever heard of Lorusia?”
“Lorusia, no way…!”
“Yeah, I thought you knew.”
The smile on Shish's lips deepened as his golden eyes dilated.
"She drank Lorusia's poison, Titiana. I drank it too..."
Shish tilted his head to the side as if he was in trouble, then straightened up and narrowed his eyes.
“...I drank the antidote.”
Before going to meet Titiana, he had already taken the antidote.
The poison brought into the magic tower along with the sacred sword was received from a wizard he 'randomly met' in the restaurant.
Lorusia, a beautiful golden flower. Depending on how it was made, this flower could be either a potion or a deadly poison.
He thought he would never have to use it in his life, as there was no one to save or kill in Lorusia, but he never expected that he would end up using it like this.
Another thing, even if you are a magician, Lorusia cannot be deciphered.
- You can deal with it with the knowledge you have.
The words of his beloved master were truly accurate, though bitterly so.
“This kid! That’s why I said I had to kill you...!”
Every time Yuno rolled his feet, the hole in the magic tower grew bigger.
“Of course, this woman was attracted to us, too.”
"What?"
“Just as we are supposed to be attracted to this woman, this woman is also supposed to be attracted to you and me.”
Shish threw a sneer at Yuno, who had a frown on his face as if he couldn't understand.
“I guess you don’t remember the contents of the book either?”
Yuno still seemed to not remember anything.
Shish, who didn't want to explain the details to such a tower master, scoffed.
Titiana willingly accepted the male protagonists' confinement and abuse. Titiana never once lost her temper. Titiana enjoyed their company.
“It must be mutual.”
"You!"
Yuno appeared, his golden hair fluttering. Golden magic swirled around him as he held a vial of liquid in his hand.
Shish, who had been holding Titiana's hand tightly, calmly greeted his opponent.
“Hello, Tower Master.”
“I told you not to seduce Titiana!”

“This kid! That’s why I said I had to kill you...!”
Every time Yuno rolled his feet, the hole in the magic tower grew bigger.
"What's so great about that bastard anyway! If you want to, you could break his arms and legs and still do it. Why does Titiana insist on letting him live intact...!"
"What?"
“Just as we are supposed to be attracted to this woman, this woman is also supposed to be attracted to you and me.”
Shish threw a sneer at Yuno, who had a frown on his face as if he couldn't understand.
“I guess you don’t remember the contents of the book either?”
Yuno still seemed to not remember anything.
Shish, who didn't want to explain the details to such a tower master, scoffed.
Titiana willingly accepted the male protagonists' confinement and abuse. Titiana never once lost her temper. Titiana enjoyed their company.
“It must be mutual.”
Shish twisted his lips as he recalled the monotonous and trivial story. He felt utterly bored by the content of the book he had successfully interpreted.
Shish Milan, who kills people to relieve boredom.
To her, this was the kind of person he was after all.
But Shish couldn't hate the woman who had come in and ruined his life.
Yuno threw the debris from the broken wall of the magic tower at Shish.
“Oh, if you use magic, it’ll be difficult.”
Shish tried to grasp the barrier surrounding Yuno's heart with Titiana's hand, but only sparks flew.
“What are you doing!”
As Yuno screamed, the tower began to shake.
“If you use magic on me, you won’t find the antidote, Tower Master.”
“Hurry up and make Titi drink the antidote, you damned punk!”
“Then release this barrier.”
"...What?"
“Release this barrier.”
If Titiana simply fainted, all he had to do was take her body.
But that damned prime minister was the one who secretly made the commander of the knights, the sword master, drink poison. It was highly likely that Titiana had actually drunk the poison.
“If you break the barrier, I’ll give you the antidote.”
“How can I believe that?”
“If you don’t want to believe it, then don’t believe it.”
Shish shrugged.
“I don’t want to kill Titiana either.”
“You came for Lily, didn’t you? Aren’t you trying to make her the main character?”
"No."
Although he had been lying his entire life, his tongue felt heavy now.
“Titiana showed up, and I came to my senses. I,”
He moved his stiffening tongue with all his might.
"That I don't love either Titiana or Retri. I was just momentarily captivated by what someone wrote."
I love you. I love you, my master.
Shish calmly responded, crying out that his life up until now had been a lie, but this much was true.
"I'm just the prime minister of the empire. I just need to make sure no one ruins the empire."
Shish urged, once again holding Titianna's body that was growing colder.
"Choose, Tower Master. You must choose before the poison seeps into his organs. Or is your life more important than Titiana's?"
Yuno, who had fallen for the provocation, glared at Shish with sharp eyes.
“...Then give me Titi first.”
In any case, it was impossible for a civil servant with no magical power to destroy his own heart. All he had to do was take the antidote and kill the author.
"Good."
Shish released his grip, and at Yuno's gesture, Titiana's body quickly settled into the arms of the Tower Master.
“Ha, Titi.”
Yuno sighed as he hugged her cold body, and Shish urged his again, placing one hand in his bosom.
“Let go.”
Yuno, who didn't notice that the other hand was behind his back, bit his lip and made a gesture, and as soon as the barrier was lifted, Shish took a bottle out of his bosom and threw it.
When Yuno, who had caught the bottle with magic, turned his gaze towards Shish, he felt a pain in his chest.
"What..."
Where the golden eyes were focused, there was a scene of a sharp dagger blade cutting through the heart.
***
My faith was successful.
The familiar interior was strangely quiet, but I didn't let my guard down and ran toward the elevator. Using the magic stone, I headed to the floor where Yuno's heart was.
My legs felt like they were going to burst, but I kept running, even though my eyes were stung by the golden light bursting out of the hall.
Yuno hugging Titiana, Shishi stabbing his sword into the red blood clot.
“Shish!”
Now that the sacred sword has been inserted, nothing can restore Yuno's heart, and now all that's left is to save Shish.
At my call, Shish turned back, and I reached out to him.
Thump, thump, thump.
It's the sound of my heart beating or the sound of my running footsteps that makes me cry.
It felt like the blister on my foot was about to burst, but I didn't feel any pain.
“Come here!”
A massive tornado erupted around Yuno's heart. It happened so quickly that I couldn't even tell him to dodge, and it grew in size in an instant. I barely managed to take another step.
To hold the hand of the person I like.
At the same time, Aegis' shield, which is automatically implemented when the owner is in a dangerous situation, was activated.
The pentagonal shield, shining silver, looked sturdy enough to block any attack.
If I pull Shish back, I can hide behind the shield and save my life from the magical power bursting from Yuno's heart.
I reached out to Shish with all my might, and he smiled brightly as if he noticed something.
The time when Shish reached out his hand, which was actually only a moment, felt very long and distant to me.
Yes, can you catch it, huh?
"No."
Bang.
What touched my fingertips was not Shish's soft hand, but a hard membrane.
This damned relic completely cut me off from danger, and at the same time, it made me incapable of contact with anything outside of myself.
“Shish!”
The voice seemed to pass through the curtain, and Shish's smile grew deeper.
The distance between us, which had been close, grew longer before I could even blink.
One day, as if the tower had broken and fallen, the surroundings became bright, and a clear sky began to appear.
I tried to take off that damn necklace, but it was stuck and wouldn't budge, and all I could do was scream his name.
“Shish! Shish Milan!”
The golden whirlwind grew larger as if it were going to sweep away everything around it, and the man who was moving further and further away from me spoke with his mouth.
"I love you."
The surroundings became quiet.
Clearly, a huge, tall tower was crumbling down, and I could hear screams, but I could hear nothing but Shish's words.
The sight of books, magical tools, and fragments of walls scattering across the blue sky was so surreal that I was momentarily speechless.
I just reached out to the red hair that was fading away, and when my favorite finger pointed to my eyes, I absentmindedly touched the corner of my eye.
What touched my fingertips was a clear liquid.
Once I recognized its presence, my eyes became clouded, and I desperately called out the name of the man I couldn't see clearly.
“Shish!”
A golden light burst out from somewhere on the tower, and Shish was consumed by the light.
Like a dream that was buried in darkness instead of me.
