"Huh, kekekekeke"
"Please be quiet."
"Just a topic for an article... You should shut up."
"I don't know what kind of confidence you have."
"I can kill you now?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
" indeed? "
"Bam-!!"
Sea used her magic to strangle the knight who was watching her.
"Well, what? What am I saying?"
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry. Ugh..."
Thump -
"Haha, okay. I'm so generous, so I'll have to let it slide."
Sea smiled wickedly and saved the knight's life.
It's been three days since Sea was imprisoned. The only thing she's been given is water. The prison is made of iron bars that nullify magic, so she can't even touch them.
Already weak, Seah grew weaker by the day. Now, her condition was a mess... But Seah didn't give in. Instead, she only grew more venomous and bared her teeth.
"Is it so hard to reflect on something? Why are you so stubborn when an apology would have been enough? You're an adult soon. Come to your senses!"
"What does your father know to say such things?"
"Kim Se-ah!"
"How many times do I have to tell you? I told you to kill me. I told you to stab me with the sword you see there!!"
"I told you to do it in moderation."
"Just wait and see. You'll regret not killing me. Now, if you trample and destroy the Karna family... it'll be fun."
Sea laughed like a madman. It was so embarrassing to hear.
Boom - !
"What can a little thing like you do? Magic power that you can't even control perfectly yet? Hahaha, dude, you should stop talking nonsense. Be thankful that I'm alive. If it weren't for your father, I would have killed you and still have more. You know, I hate the fact that a bitch like you shares the same blood with me."
Taehyung kicked the prison door open and grabbed Se-ah by the collar.
"I'm more disgusting. I feel so sorry for myself and it's unfair. But you know... I'm so sorry I could die. "
" what;;? "
The three looked at her as if to ask what she was talking about, and immediately Se-ah bit her lips hard to hold back her tears.
"I'm so sorry, I'm going crazy!! My mother gave up her life to save me... I know. I know now!! You must hate me. You must hate me so much... But I'm also in pain. My mother died because of me... I'm so sorry, I'm going crazy. Me too!! I'm so sorry, I could die..."
"You did that..." Seokjin
"But you know what? I tried really hard? I really worked hard... I didn't expect anything big... I just wanted some attention, some praise. But was that really that hard? Love? I didn't even expect it. But I feel so bad for myself. I feel so bad for myself when I was younger."
Sea spoke while crying.
" 그 작은 아이가 칭찬 한번 받아보겠다고 피 터지게 노력을 했어. 근데 그 누구도 신경조차 안 쓰더라? 얼마나 불안했을까. 그 어린애가 버림받기 싫어서 얼마나 많은 노력을 하고 힘들어했을까... 시간이 지나면 지날수록 하찮은 취급을 받을 거였으면 어릴 때 절대 노력하지 않았어. 내 유년 시절을 오직 관심 한번 받으려고 안달 난 개새끼처럼 지내지 않았을 거라고!! "
"Ha...haha, why are you looking at me like that? It's disgusting... You killed me. Little Kim Se-ah was killed by her family. So miserable and painful!! You don't know anything about me... How can you call me family... I'm just something to carry on the tradition. Is this the first time you've seen this? Have I ever cried? In front of you? No? There's no way. After all, since I was little, I was taught that I shouldn't cry because I'm from the Karna family and I have to be strong. Haha"
"Thank you. For bringing me down to the bottom of hell."
Se-ah's pitiful appearance disappeared and she immediately glared at them with eyes full of murder.
"Kim Se-ah, you..." Namjoon
BAM-!!
"I never thought those damn bastards would do such a thing, but they really did something so fucking stupid. Do you want to die?"
" jungkook jeon? "
"I told you, just run away. This piece of crap is not where you belong."
"How did you..."
"Haa, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have sent you home again."
" ...?! "
"I followed Jeon Jungkook out... I never thought I'd see something like this."
"...!! T...Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Seokjin
"The Grand Duke has disappointed me quite a bit today. I never thought the Karna family, so respected, would be this dirty. No matter how many crimes they commit, the royal family never touches a high noble... Huh..."
"Come here." Hoseok
Hoseok used magic to bring Sea to their side.
"Why is my body so hurt..."
Hoseok's expression hardened when he saw Se-ah's condition.
"Se-ah, tell me. Kill those kids?" Jungkook
"...That's enough. They're not worth killing."
I told him not to kill Jeon Jungkook because he seemed like he would really kill him if he were to kill him. The novel kept getting messed up...
"Let's have Miss Sea stay in the palace for the time being." Yoongi
"But...!" Taehyung
"What right do you have to speak like that? I don't know how you joined my knights when you can't even protect your own brother;;"
" ... sorry. "
Taehyung had to lower his head with both fists clenched.
"Okay, okay. Let's go."
"I'm holding back from wanting to kill you guys, you little shits." Jungkook
" ...I really hope you hurt. More than I hurt."
Ho-seok used magic to go to the palace, and the three of them just stood there blankly, unable to say anything.
"Haa... haa..."
"Se-ah, are you okay? Does it hurt a lot?" Jungkook
Jungkook sobbed and grabbed Se-ah's hand as she seemed to be having trouble even breathing.
"Jung Ho-seok, how can you not do this? It hurts;;" Yoon-gi
"Do you think I'm some kind of god? I told you I can't cure everything? And I'm going crazy right now! What should I do if my magic suddenly goes out?!"
"It's okay... ah... yea. It'll get better with time..."
Knock knock, knock -
" uh...? "
"G.. Kim Se-ah!!" Hoseok
Thud -
Sea vomited blood and collapsed.
" ...what did I do...."
He sat down. Kim Seok-jin recalled the last words his wife had spoken to him.
"Our Se-ah... We have to protect her well... Okay? She's such a lovely child who deserves to be loved and raised..."
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... for not being able to protect Se-ah."
It's always too late. By the time you regret it, it's already too late. You can never turn back.
As Sea said, I killed my daughter.

"Kim Namjoon, were you really this cowardly..."
If I said I didn't know, that would be a lie. I knew, but I ignored it. I just thought I'd ignore it.
It's just an excuse. I should have thought rationally, but I just avoided it and blamed others.
I feel so stupid for not knowing that they were killing my family and for not recognizing my real family and only thinking badly of them.
Maybe Sea has grown up too quickly. Maybe I'm still stuck in my childhood.

"I know... that I'm an idiot."
He knows it too. He's been terribly tormenting Se-ah for a long time, and Se-ah didn't show any signs of disliking Tae-hyung, but rather liked him.
Taehyung would get angry for no reason and bully Se-ah even more. It was such a foolish thing. Of course, it was more so because they were young, but even as an adult, he still treated Se-ah coldly and like a dog.
Taehyung loved his mother especially. It's what's commonly called a lack of affection. He had suffered from this as a child, so after his mother passed away, his condition worsened, starting with anxiety. He was afraid of the night, and without his mother, who had protected him every night, he was so anxious and scared that he was going crazy.
She was so young that she couldn't help but recognize Sea as the person who killed her mother. She was always busy with work and rarely visited the mansion, so the only person who could care for her was her nanny.
"What should I do when I think of my mom whenever I see him... That's an excuse. It's true... But I'm going crazy too..."
Regret? Sea was already torn to shreds and collapsed from exhaustion. The outcome was the same anyway.
Perhaps the reason Eun-ah was possessed by Se-ah was because Se-ah was truly dead. Because she wanted to escape. Because she felt like she couldn't take it anymore.

I feel like it's just the beginning...
That writer's bastard is still there...
I'm going to make those three people regret it even more...
Sea... I feel sorry for making you sick so much that I'm writing this...
Yes...um...since I came quickly, please don't just lurk.
I'm losing my motivation to write because I'm lurking so much...
