Chapter 530

Bear-san, Gets Angry

We walked gently uphill.

“I’m sorry, Yuna. I got you involved in this mess.” (Cereille)

“Don’t worry about it. It’s not your fault, Cereille. That guy is bad news.” (Yuna)

!!

He kidnapped Cereille’s brother, Keith, and also killed Cereille’s mother in the past. For all intents and purposes, the man walking in front of us was the real culprit to be blamed.

“Yes, but……” (Cereille)

“Besides, I can protect myself, so you only have to look out for yourself and Keith.” (Yuna)

“I know that you’re strong, Yuna. But it is my fault that I got you involved in what happened. I should have been a little more aware of my surroundings before leaving the city.” (Cereille)

Cereille had a strong sense of responsibility. She felt guilty for involving me into this. Besides, her brother Keith was kidnapped. It’ll be harsh to ask her to keep her calm.

“I can assure you, Yuna, that both you and Keith will return home safely, even if it costs me my life.” (Cereille)

Cereille seemed willing to sacrifice herself to protect Keith and me. Of course, I have no intention of letting her do that. If Cereille sacrifices herself to save me, I will have to live with the guilt of letting her die for the rest of my life. I don’t want that.

“I like hearing your conversation, but make sure you follow me. If you try something like running away, well, I don’t have to tell you what would happen, do I?” (Man)

Perhaps thinking we can’t do anything, the man didn’t even turn around.

“You don’t seem to feel that much of a crisis? We may attack from behind, you know.” (Yuna)

“I don’t know about you, but Cereille-sama would never do such a reckless thing for her brother. Even if you tried to attack me, I am sure she would stop you.” (Man)

He says it as if he knows everything about Cereille.

“I might not listen to Cereille.” (Yuna)

“In other words, you don’t care what happens to her brother, do you? Cereille-sama, you should choose your friends properly.” (Man)

The way he said it was annoying.

“You can rest assured that you will not be touched by Yuna.” (Cereille)

“Fufu, Cereille-sama seems to understand the current situation better than that young lady.” (Man)

Yeah, I understand what will become of you later better than anyone.

“We won’t attack or run away, but since we are just walking, why don’t you answer my questions?” (Cereille)

“What would that be?” (Man)

“You killed my mother, but why did you do it? Did she do something to you? Did something happen between you and my mother?” (Cereille)

Cereille asked the man walking in front of her.

“I have known your mother since we were students. Your mother was a beautiful woman who was kind to everyone. I was also attracted to her. I confessed my love to her when we graduated from school. But she did not accept my love. Your mother had stepped on my goodwill. I have loved her since I was a student, but she married a man who only had money.” (Man)

The man explained while making big gestures.

“No way, that’s the only reason you killed my mother?!” (Cereille)

Cereille was gritting her teeth. Her hands were shaking with frustration.

“It’s a good enough reason. She rejected my love and trampled on it. However, as kind-hearted as I am, I waited for a few years, but her reply was the same. That’s why I killed her. She refused. Don’t you think it’s terrible for me?” (Man)

The man turned around and asked for our agreement. His face was as if to say that he was not in the wrong.

Sorry, but I don’t agree with you at all.

Even the other party has the right to choose. An ordinary woman would choose Cereille’s father over this man.

He was an aristocrat, had money, seemed kind, and would be the perfect marriage candidate from a woman’s point of view.

Comparing him to this man in front of me is wrong on so many levels.

If the nobleman we’re talking about had a bad character and had a toad face, like the aristocrat who kidnapped Misa, then people could say that she married him for his money. However, the reality is that it’s not like that. It’s simply jealousy and recrimination.

But I can see from the man’s grudge expression, in his delusion, he felt that he was betrayed.

This is worse than I thought. There is no one more difficult to have a conversation with than someone who does not understand the world’s common sense.

I have never been in a relationship, but there’s no way I would kill someone just because I was rejected. However, there are stalkers in this world who, like a person they are very attached to. They do one-time favors, and when they are rejected, they go crazy and kill people. Even in my former world, there’s such news.

Personally, I think it would be more fun to play games, instead of having time for such sticky situations. Even in this world, there are many fun things to do if you look for them. Love is not the only fun thing. And if you get rejected, you can search for a new love.

But perhaps I can say this because I have never been in a relationship. Only the person who has been rejected can understand such feelings.

Even so, that’s not a reason to kill or bind people.

“You are insane. You killed my mother just because she rejected you?” (Cereille)

Cereille, who was listening to the man’s story, said to the man in a squeezed voice.

Cereille was frustrated when she learned why her mother was killed. She furiously looked at the man, but could not do more because her brother Keith was being held somewhere.

“So you killed the mother because you got dumped, then what are you going to do with the daughter, Cereille? Are you going to kill Cereille, too?” (Yuna)

“Kill Cereille-sama? No way” (Man)

The man laughed at my words.
