“Ugh!”
Mario is in pain.
“Ugh!”
Behind him, Kali and Alex stare at me with frozen, startled eyes.
Listening to the beautiful screams that come out every time I snap my fingers...
“Ahhhhhhh!”
I remembered one memory I had with Mario before the regression.
There was a time when I was so angry about Richard's work that I burned Mario's hair.
I was that crazy.
They didn't even try to treat Mario, who was suffering. In the end, Mario was treated by his third-oldest sister.
That day, Krista came to me and got angry at me.
"Bunny! What could Mario have done?! I told you he had no choice but to follow his orders, to let you off the hook! Why do you keep burning people when they're in so much pain? What's wrong with you?"
She was always the mediator.
There were times when I would go wild and not even mind overusing Bless if I was really upset...
Krista would stop me from doing that.
"Why... why are brothers fighting like this! Why do you hate each other? Can't you all just be friends?"
Ha...
Yes, that's why I had this foolish thought of meeting my brothers one more time, even though I had already completed the personality test before returning.
Perhaps it was because Krista's words at that time, when she told me not to hate my brother, struck me hard.
'But you and this guy are different, Krista.'
It wasn't for nothing that the angelic Krista was my controller, who sometimes went crazy.
That's the kind of kid she was.
I admitted it cleanly.
You don't have a personality like Krista, so why are you so weak-hearted?
“But I was such a fool to think I should watch over you just once, even though you were my blood brother. Really, really.”
“You, you...”
As expected, pretending to be nice doesn't suit my personality.
“Kali, get him on his knees. This kid is too tall.”
Even though she was quite surprised, Kali listened to me right away.
Mario is in pain.
“Ugh!”

'But you and this guy are different, Krista.'
It wasn't for nothing that the angelic Krista was my controller, who sometimes went crazy.
When Kristah was dragged off by her eldest brother and ordered to do something unfair, she was the kind of kid who always fought back and got beaten.
And day after day, she'd come home with her pretty cheeks all puffed up and swollen...
Yet she tried so hard to understand her brothers who couldn't resist—no, who wouldn't resist...
“Damn it, I was such an idiot!”
You don't have a personality like Krista, so why are you so weak-hearted?
“But I was such a fool to think I should watch over you just once, even though you were my blood brother. Really, really.”
“You, you...”
As expected, pretending to be nice doesn't suit my personality.
“Kali, get him on his knees. This kid is too tall.”
Even though she was quite surprised, Kali listened to me right away.
Puck!
“Ah!”
Kali kicked Mario hard in the groin from behind, and he fell to his knees in front of me with a scream.
I immediately slapped Mario on the left cheek.
Match-!
“You were the one who killed Richard.”
It was Mario who kidnapped Richard's lover.
Of course, it was my father's order, but I remember Mario's mockery.
As I watched the dying Richard, I asked him where he had hidden his lover.
“Why do you pity that weakling, little sister?”
“M-Mario, please! If you keep doing that, Richard will die!!!”
"If he dies, that's that bastard's fate. It's right for the weak to be eliminated."
I have a clear memory of hearing that, but why?
Why did you think we should watch this human one more time?
Mario turned his head to face the person who was being hit in the cheek.
Match-!
And then I hit him again.
“Yaaaah!”
I turned Mario's head back towards me, screaming in anger.
“Ugh, it hurts... What did you do...?”
My palm was so sore that I looked at it and saw that it was torn apart.
The Eyes of the Mirror - Restoration of Light
As I swept it away with my left hand, the bruised wound on my right palm healed. Mario's eyes widened as he saw it in full view.
“R, right now you, you that...”
"How is it? Are you surprised? It's fundamentally different from your useless powers, isn't it?"
I looked back with a smile.
The building collapsed, revealing the sea of the port city behind it.
"If you hate me, try making waves and drowning me. Oh, you haven't trained yourself to that level yet?"
"You..."
“Hahaha! Isn’t that right? Then you’ll die too, so you’re scared and don’t like it, right?”
Mario's face turned pale.
I guess I just realized it now.
That he could die here and now.
That moment.
I felt Mario's expression change subtly.
The Abyss of Receivers
At the same time, hot water poured down on my head like lightning.
"Ah!"
“Who, sister!”
“Ugh, ha! Oh, don’t come!”
A surprised Alex tried to run towards me, but I immediately raised my hand to stop him. Luckily, Kali caught him.
'It hurts...'
It smelled like tea.
Hot steam rose, and my burned face felt hot.
"Ah..."
Is this all you can do, just struggle?
I wiped the tea dripping down my cheek and smiled.
The moment Mario uses this ability, his power instantly becomes mine. Immediately after, the surrounding 'water' begins to be detected.
Perhaps because it was originally around a restaurant, there were plenty of hot teas scattered around in this chaotic area.
The Eye of the Mirror - The Abyss of the Receiver
I moved the closest one and returned it immediately. The boiling tea poured down over Mario's head.
“Kwaaaa ..."
“Are you hot? I’m hot too!”
“Huh, ah, ah...”
Mario looked at me in horror and begged.
“S-save me, save me, Vania...”
"No."
“Please... Ugh, I was wrong...”
"No."
I won't spare you.
It's just a shame that I can't kill him now, and that I'll be the only one who remembers all of this.
But it's a relief, and I'm glad I finally got to see Mario's true nature.
A merciless brat who could even burn his little sister, whom he hadn't seen in years.
'So, today's achievement is...'
I straightened my back and breathed in the sea breeze blowing over the ruined land.
'First...'
I found out that they were tracking 'Ratan' in Wassenberg.
Since Mario is suspicious of the identity of Ratan, we will have to re-plan how to protect Merchen.
'And...'
Mario's disposal has been decided.
It's not like Ryan killed all the people with superpowers without asking any questions before returning.
He must have thought, 'I can resist well enough, so why not?'
That's right. If the brothers had thought normally and combined their strength, they could have easily captured their helpless father.
But no one did that. No one did.
Even after failing hundreds of times in persuading him to gather his strength before returning...
Should we watch it one more time?
You don't have the right to judge me?
It's really funny that I acted like such a hypocrite.
“Mario.”
I smiled brightly and looked back at my sixth brother.
“The day we meet again, you will die.”
“Va, Vania....”
“Because I’m a hypocrite... I gave a last chance to someone like you.”
But the result was Ratan spewing from the poisoned Prince. A collapsed building. People were crushed to death.
If I weren't here now... This is a disaster that can't be erased or undone.
Mario did this without any hesitation.
“If I gave you a chance like a fool, you should have taken advantage of it. Why are you kicking it away?”
I bent down close to Mario's tear-filled face and whispered.
“You are now on the death list; your name can never be erased.”
And then I got up.
“I’ll be back. So be sure to wait.”
Approach Mario, who is trembling.
Match-!
Slap his cheek one more time.
“Then you’ll really die. Goodbye.”
I left my final greetings.
