times.

Celine Hunt didn’t even move.
As he put his hand carefully to her nose, he couldn’t even feel her weak breath.

‘….’

Her blood had cooled.

Celine Hunt has just, actually died because of Leonhard himself.

At the same time, she proved her own innocence.
If she was a black witch, she wouldn’t be able to die from a fall this much.

Leonhard buried his face in his hands.

Guilt crept into his chest.

He had no intention of doing any harm.
He was only trying to find out the truth about her, though the woman fled as soon as she heard his words.

She’s like someone who wouldn’t want to be caught.

For a moment, he only thought that she might be the Black Witch and that his own nightmares might be for this woman to blame.

Leonhard blinked his eyes nervously.
In any case, since someone died because of him, he should report it to the government office and pay the right price for his sins…

“…What?”

Leonhard couldn’t believe his eyes.

Celine Hunt’s strangely broken neck turned and her big blue-grey eyes looked straight at him.

“Wh—what…?”

Leonhard put his hand on his waist to take out his sword, Rashir, which he had not taken out even when pursuing her inside the mansion.

No matter how strong magic is, it cannot revive the dead.

That meant that she could only pretend to be dead by deceiving with black magic.

“Please, please don’t kill me!”

“Black Witch! I, Leonhard Bernoulli, will punish you as the master of Rashir! Be honored!”

Celine wanted to cry.

That stupid man is trying to kill her again.

The pain of falling to death is still vivid, but if she is struck by Rashir, who splits a person into seven pieces, she will go crazy.

As Rashir’s blade burned blue, Celine squeezed her eyes shut and shouted.

“Even if you cut me with Rashir, I will come back to life!”

“What…?”

No pain was felt.

Because of that, she slowly opened her eyes.
There, Leonhard was staring at her with sharp eyes, but it wasn’t a bad situation when she saw that he had put Rashir in the sheath.

“No matter how I die, I will live again.”

“…But, Rashir would be different.”

Leonhard’s answer was stubborn, though Celine answered confidently.

“It’s the same.
I will die, and I will come back to life.”

Rashir will inflict her with pain she has never felt before.
However, it will not end her life forever.

“I can’t believe it.
Did you just die? You aren’t pretending to be dead?”

At his words, Celine swallowed a gulp.

‘He has to see me die again and come back to life, for him to believe it completely.’

And so, slowly, she started walking first.

“Follow me.”

Fortunately, instead of threatening Celine to stop, Leonhard followed her.

Then, she stood on the porch and swallowed.

The stuffed head of the deer looked down at her serenely.
Pulling the cabinet under the stuffed head of the deer, and venom powder will overtake her.

‘…Well, it wasn’t a very painful death.’

She had to somehow convince Leonhard.

With that thought, Celine reached out her arm to open the cabinet, though she didn’t get what she wanted.

In an instant, her body floated off the ground.
Leonhard was screaming and pulling her hard.

“What are you doing!”

“Let me go.
I don’t mean to do anything weird.”

Celine answered angrily, but she immediately froze.

It was because words that could never come out of Leonhard’s mouth flowed out.

“Crazy? Do you want to die again?”

Celine clenched her mouth with a bewildered look.
She was numb as though she had been hit in the head.
She asked him, stuttering.

“How… How?”

“That’s right.”

Leonhard let out a sound that was closer to a groan than a word.
His own guess was correct.
The woman in front of him was really about to die.

…Like in his dream

‘….!’

In an instant, realization struck him.

He gently shook the woman with a still blank face.

“Snap out of it.
When did you get bitten by a viper?”

“…It was yesterday.”

“Not the day before yesterday? No, let me tell you.
The rusty chandelier fell and broke your neck, right?”

“….”

“And, you died two more times trying to remove all the chandeliers in the house.”

Still puzzled, Celine managed to answer Leonhard’s words in full.

“…That’s right.
That’s right!”

His voice lit up with strange excitement.

“Ha! God, I have finally found rest.”

Celine looked nervously at Leonhard with an overjoyed expression on his face.

“Did you know that you appear in my dreams?”

“What? Me…?”

She was so startled that she almost bit her tongue.
Come to think of it, she seems to remember Leonhard saying something similar earlier.

Although she couldn’t hear it at all.

“Yes.
Every day… you show up every day and I can’t sleep at all.”

“No way…”

Pondering, Celine’s gaze rested on Leonhard’s dark, dark circles.
Only then did she realize why he had come to find her.

“You saw me die in the dream.
That’s why you couldn’t sleep and found me…”

“You died endlessly.”

Celine replied bitterly.
“Because I really died that way.
This is a curse.
I die endlessly and come back to life.”

“….”

Leonhard looked down at the woman one head smaller than himself.
He didn’t notice when she was running away earlier, though when he looked closely now, she was a very slender woman.

She hadn’t eaten properly.
Shivering in a thin dress, her skinny body was unsuitable for the weather.

“…That’s why you died like that.”

“What?”

Leonhard coughed once and made a solemn declaration.

“Celine Hunt, I will not allow you to die in the future.”
