028. Trauma

Selene suddenly took off and silence fell. Seeing her still frantic, Endymion nodded her head bewildered.

“Okay…”

Honestly, no one would have expected it. No way, she was someone who had lived for so long, a woman who had no flaws at all, and who had never made love to another man.

At least, it wasn’t what Endymion expected. He stared at Selene with complicated eyes.

‘Why?’

She wasn’t asking why she hadn’t met a man in a while. Rather, his question was more like a question he asked himself.

‘Why am I relieved to hear that?’

It couldn’t have been a strange thing. Clearly, the feelings I had for Selene weren’t like that, but when I heard that kind of confirmation, it felt like all my uncomfortable feelings were alleviated.

‘It’s strange….’

Endymion, who had never been like this before, could not easily accept his disparate state. That’s why she was silent, but Selene, who was huffing up, took it as a sign that she still hadn’t proven her innocence, and hurriedly parted her lips.

“You don’t believe me? I can prove it…”

“No, I believe…”

What if you don’t believe it? Selene had no reason to lie in the first place. So, that statement will soon be true.

‘By the way, proof… ‘

I don’t know how she tried to prove it. Endymion didn’t bother asking about him. It was a topic that felt like a Pandora’s box that you shouldn’t open.

‘Let’s not do irreversible things out of curiosity.’

Sometimes it’s good to pretend you don’t know.

“…You do that.”

“Yes?”

“So what kind of woman am I?”

Selene’s sudden question made Endymion’s head dizzy.

‘I really asked something stupid.’

Did you ever imagine that this kind of question would come back? Turns out, the water had already been spilled. Endymion, wanting to make amends for her, gave her the answer she wanted.

“I am just like you.”

“No…?”

“Yes.”

“…A lie.”

“…….”

What do you mean? Endymion got her words stuck in her throat, but she persevered. She used to be flexible enough to see a dog or a chicken, but lately she’s been feeling her patience fluctuate.

“How do I… prove it?”

“Proof… that’s a good idea.”

Alas.

‘… Did I say something wrong?’

I thought that maybe it was a high-level trick to induce such words, but it was already done.

Selene smiled strangely, and she immediately took something of her own from her arms.

“…I can’t believe this happened-“

“It can’t be. It’s just that I easily brought something from somewhere else with magic.”

She tried to ask if it was all a plan, but Selene lightly denied it. At that, Endymion only looked at the oddly shaped ‘horn’ in her hand in dismay.

“What the hell is that?”

“The horn of a unicorn. It is the horn of a divine beast that is said to be a symbol of purity.”

Of course I’ve heard of it. The only problem was why Selene brought it out in this situation.

“Hmm? Of course it’s just to make sure what you’re saying is true.”

“Those… what do you mean by raising your vicious horns to check?”

There is a rumor that impure people are stabbed to death, so the horn of a unicorn was quite sharp.

Thanks to that, Endymion had no choice but to look at it with a somewhat uneasy gaze.

“It’s only a moment, so be quiet.”

“What can be done in a short time-“

At the sight of her holding out her horn without hesitation and placing it around her thigh, Endymion suddenly made her heart beat faster.

“…It was true.”

Meanwhile, Selene, who inevitably had to bring her horn near Endymion’s place, murmured as the horn of her unicorn emitted a cluster of light.

After checking her, Selene looked at Endymion with joy and noticed that something was wrong with her.

“Why are you doing that…?”

“…….”

Endymion’s expression was not good. As she became her contemplative in an instant, Selene’s complexion deteriorated as well.

‘Why are you doing that?’

I don’t know why. All she did to him was put her unicorn horn around the corner.

Selene asked Endymion the reason for her extension. Why all of a sudden But Endymion didn’t tell her why.

Chii profit——

A burning smell stung her nose. But this wasn’t something to be bothered with. Rather, the atrocious heat felt in her legs made her scream.

“Aww—!!!!”

‘Hajin’ struggled in pain. However, since her hands, feet, and entire body were tied to her chair, she could not resist.

Besides, I couldn’t even scream at will. The towel over her mouth served as a gag, and she only allowed him to groan.

A space worthy of being called a torture chamber, lined with all kinds of heinous weapons, and bloody on the ground, this place was definitely called a ‘training room’.

“Be patient.”

Ha-jin’s father said that while holding a hot iron to Ha-jin’s thigh. There was no warmth in his eyes, not even the amount of dust from a pharynx.

Like sticking some kind of firewood.

“This is just a medicine. Later on, you will suffer even more, so you can’t just give in to this level.”

It seemed as if more severe torture was confirmed in the future. Indeed, it was the sound of her eyes darkening, but Ha-jin struggled with her pain to such an extent that it was difficult to face even such darkness.

“Ugh—! Ugh!!!”

His thighs were already full of burn marks. It’s ugly to see that it’s stained brightly. To think that all of this was carved by one person made my teeth tremble.

“Be patient.”

It gives unbearable pain and tells you to endure it forever. Thanks to this, Ha Jin felt like going crazy, but he didn’t lose his mind even in the middle of it.

Repeated learning. It may be that the pain is numb to it. This kind of bullying was not the only thing that happened today.

After being burned, passed out, and burned again, I was able to endure it even though I felt like I was going crazy with the pain.

“Yeah… I’m still not losing my mind like this anymore.”

It seems that he was very satisfied with the results he had achieved. He let Ha Jin off the gag so he could rest for a while.

“Huhhhhh”

As soon as the gag is off, Ha-jin breathes in as much as she wants. His face was not words. He was very miserable.

With a hazy consciousness, a feeling of wanting to collapse, he gazed at his father eagerly.

“You must have had enough rest.”

His father was just the same.

* * *

Endymion lifted his heavy eyelids.

‘I fell asleep without realizing it.’

I was tied up and had nothing to do, so it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that staying awake or sleeping was my entire routine.

Because of that, Endymion, who fell asleep without knowing it, said that old thoughts came out as dreams for a while, perhaps because of the environment he was in.

‘Come to think of it, things seem to be the same as back then.’

A time when my thighs were burned with a pharynx. Even then, when he was tortured under the guise of training, he was tied up like this.

‘Is that why I had such a dream?’

Anyway, as I was doing this, I must have been reminded of the memories I had put away.

Should I say thanks… When I woke up, I didn’t feel refreshed at all.

Because the nightmare of last night was as long and intense as an eternity. Endymion was in a bad mood for no reason as he felt bad thoughts running through his head.

“Not good…”

It’s been a while. Endymion felt the urge to release this bond immediately. I rationally suppressed the urge with difficulty.

Calm mind, among the things emphasized by his father, who always did harsh things, was the part he agreed with and thought was useful.

You must not lose your composure at any time.

‘So let’s calm down….’

I felt a little better after doing Sim Ho-Hop a few times.

Smart-

“…….”

The knock on the door was unfamiliar. Then, the person who opened her door and came in was Selene, and Endymion asked her, not expressing her displeasure just a moment ago.

“Why are you knocking on the door?”

“…This is my heart.”

Selene narrowed her eyes and let out Endymion. For a moment, even when Endymion was taken aback by her irresponsible behavior, he shook his head excitedly at her.

“Is that so?”

It is an opponent that can not be understood in the first place. What are you trying to understand about it? Endymion had long since realized that it was futile.

Selene just stared at him as if her quick acceptance was unexpected.

She opened her mouth again and again. The amount she has to say.

“Now… Are you a little less angry?”

“Angry… When do you mean I’m angry?”

Endymion was taken aback by the sudden sound.

‘Why are you doing that all of a sudden?’

It’s strange to notice, but the reason is that she is angry with herself. Endymion, who had never been angry in the first place, couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.

‘What misunderstanding… ‘

I couldn’t even get a feel for it.

“As expected…”

Selene reacted sullenly as she thought that she was still less angry. Thanks to this, Endymion, who did not know her English, felt her bones throb.
