When I Reincarnated as the Villain of a Game World, I Created a Harem and Broke the Protagonist's Heart and Efforts! - Chapter 41 : Emptiness in one's heart

Chapter 41 : Emptiness in one’s heart

The day after the announcement of the second prince’s engagement party.

Master was not by my side.

“Don’t look at me with those eyes, woman. It’s truly unpleasant.”

What remained was something that looked like my Master but was a different entity altogether. Even though the appearance was the same, the emotions and attitude directed towards me were entirely different from my Master.

Yesterday, upon returning to the imperial villa in the capital, I asked Leviana about it. It seems that it is a demon of ‘Arrogance’ separate from Leviana, existing within Wraith-sama.

It was born many years ago when Master and Leviana made a contract. By entering into a contract with a demon belonging to the highest rank of sins, the vast power flowed into my Master’s still young body. Normally, that immense power would not fit entirely into my Master’s small frame, and the overflow should have melted into the world. However, Master forcefully absorbed the power into himself without letting it overflow, resulting in the unabsorbed power undergoing a mutation, gaining its own personality, and giving birth to ‘that’.

Leviana sensed the presence of ‘Arrogance’ in that personality and immediately tried to eliminate it, deeming it dangerous. However, Master decided to use it as his own power, mastering that personality and successfully incorporating it into a part of his own power, as demonstrated yesterday.

However, great power always comes with a price, and Master was no exception. There were two main consequences.

The first was a temporary loss of bodily freedom and magic power. While ‘that’ was present, my Master’s consciousness disappeared, and ‘that’ took control of his body. During ‘his’ presence, a vast amount of magic power was constantly consumed. Consequently, when Master regained consciousness, his magic power was depleted, rendering him unable to acquire any external information during ‘his’ control, and awakening in a state where magic could not be used.

The second consequence was the inversion of personalities. Currently, Master’s personality constituted seven parts, while ‘his’ personality constituted three parts. The exchange of personalities was possible under my Master’s will. However, each time ‘he’ was brought to the forefront, the ratio gradually changed, with ‘his’ personality becoming more dominant. If this continued, the current situation would eventually reverse, and Master’s personality would disappear, essentially resulting in his death.

Apart from these two consequences, there were several minor repercussions, but they seemed relatively insignificant.

Knowing all this, my heart sank into despair.

It was the same for Lulua.

At this rate, Master would be gone away from us. I would be left behind in a world without him.

I didn’t want that…

I didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it… didn’t want it…

So, I made a decision.

To find a way for my Master not to disappear, not to die.

However, I didn’t want to ignore my Master’s will.

I belonged to him, so I didn’t want to interfere with his will.

Therefore, my search was strictly for a way to control ‘Arrogance’ or to extract its power.

I resolved to find a solution with all my being.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

Two days have passed since Master has been unconscious.

My heart felt like it had a gaping hole.

Nothing could fill it.

Nothing made me feel anything.

The world continued in shades of gray.

No color in the world.

No emotions.

No thoughts.

I spent each day expressionless and lethargic, as if dead.

“Lilia-sama, would you like to take a little rest?”

Leviana, who had been observing my condition, suggested.

I had heard the same from Lulua earlier.

Apparently, my condition was quite severe.

I had no idea, though.

“…Yes, perhaps. A bit of res…”

“Nee-san!”

The door burst open, and an excited Lulua entered the room.

Joy was evident on her face.

“What’s wrong, Lulia?”

“Wraith-sama collapsed, the servants informed me about that.”

Listening to Lulua’s words without any enthusiasm, the meaning gradually dawned on me. For the past two days, my lifeless heart began to stir.

“T-That means…”

Turning my gaze towards Leviana, she nodded slightly and spoke.

“Most likely, Master’s magic power has run out. He should wake up soon.”

“…Ah, I see. Ahh finally…”

Tears overflowed from my eyes.

Finally, I could meet my Master.

Two days…

Only two days, but the gray world that felt like an eternity was finally coming to an end.

Some time later, with the help of the servants, Master was brought into the room and laid on the bed. After a doctor’s examination, it was determined that he was merely sleeping, and only the three of us remained in the room.

I slowly approached the bed where Master slept and laid down next to him, tightly clinging to his arm.

Haah… I can finally feel Master’s warmth after a long time.

The firm texture unique to a trained body.

Master’s scent…

My heart was finally filled.

“…Nn~”

In a somewhat indecent manner, I became wet.

I couldn’t resist the overwhelming pleasure that surged all at once.

On the other side, I noticed that Lulua was also hugging Master’s arm in the same way.

I wondered if sisters naturally resembled each other in such matters.

I returned my gaze to my Master’s face, bringing my face closer and letting my lips touch his cheek.

“I won’t let you go anymore.”

Even if this life were to end.
