The Protagonists Are Murdered by Me

Chapter 118



The time span of one year was a really short time both to change something or to achieve something. Maybe that’s why, after Sahar regressed one more time, she had been trying more desperately than ever.

Learning from her failure in her first and second life, Sahar didn’t waste even one second in her third life in order to accomplish what she wanted. She kept running and ing overcame everything in her way in order to show Yoo Seodam something more beautiful than her second life, as well as herself who had achieved it all.

Sahar was aware, she wasn’t the only one who knew the future. Saintess Bianca also knew the same exact future as her. That fact alone became quite a burden for her. That’s why she kept taking an aggressive stance on each and every matter without caring about her own life.

However, Sahar did not need any future information at all. She completely twisted the whole future with every action she takes. Sahar had the power to upset the political struggle with only minor incidents such as ‘when someone gets a cold’ or ‘when someone gives birth to a child’.

Sahar clearly remembered what Goddess Kader told her. The ‘Love of The World’ given to the four male-lead was erased by Yoo Seodam in her second life, while Bianca didn’t even get the ‘Love of The World’ in this life. So, both of them had to fight with their skills alone.

If Sahar could be honest, Bianca wasn’t even an enemy for her.

Four months after she regressed, she was already in a position where she could kill Bianca comfortably. That day, Bianca was kneeling as she cried for forgiveness. She told Sahar ‘Please spare me, I never had any ill intention towards you, I did all that because I wanted to live, so please spare me this once.’

And Sahar replied dryly.

“Do you want to live?”

“Yes!! Yes!! Please…. I’ll do whatever…. Whatever you want if you spare my life!”

And then Sahar said with a bright smile.

“Then, remember that desperation even after your death. Because I also wanted to live.” (P/N: hell yea lady)

After killing the Saintess, Sahar decided to live only for herself and Yoo Seodam who would return in eight months.

In the midst of all, Sahar had expected that the Emperor would fall in love with her. However, she had no intention of using it. She felt that if she uses someone else’s feelings for her own gain, she would be no different from the Saintess.

But when the Emperor tried to touch her body, Sahar couldn’t tolerate it. She knew that if she stayed still and let the Emperor touch her body, her dream of becoming Empress would become true. However, she would rather bite her own tongue than let another man touch her body. And when she came to her senses, she finds herself stabbing a knife into the Emperor’s back.

Because of what had happened, Sahar planned an improvised ‘coup d’etat’ altogether. It wasn’t an easy task. She had to face countless nobles who lead their respective army as well as the wizards of the Magic Tower. Moreover, every night, assassins always come to kill her. She couldn’t fall asleep comfortably even for a day. She had to withstand and overcome the resentment of countless people.

“I am the Empress of the Empire.”

When Sahar finally declared herself as an Empress, there’s no one who had the guts to rebel against her anymore.

Was it because all the rebellious people had died? No that’s wrong.

It was because everyone who was tired of the tyrannical Emperor, who was stained with madness, sided with Sahar and welcomed her ‘revolution’, which intends to make the Empire prosper.

Through the blessing of people of the Empire, Empress Sahar finally did what she wanted to do.

Soon after, she declared that her home would be in the Third Temple, a place abandoned by all and a place where no one can step in. While everyone was questioning her decision, she quickly built her new castle. Empress Sahar herself even helped in the process, in order to build her castle sooner.

And when the Third Temple was finally reborn as a luxurious palace, she could see Yoo Seodam once again.

“Princess…. Sahar?”

Empress Sahar burst into laughter that resembled Yoo Seodam’s laugh when she saw the ever so composed Yoo Seodam confused and taken aback.

“Just what exactly happened?”

“…We have a lot of time, so let’s slowly talk about it.”

And a month since then.

Empress Sahar spent every minute and second together with Yoo Seodam. She told everything that had happened in the Empire with great details to him.

She told him that it was a lot of work and it was quite difficult but it was also the most rewarding year.

Maybe… She told him that in order to reassure him. To tell him that ‘I am living like this now. I’ve become the Empress of the Empire and was loved by everyone. Don’t worry, because I had accomplished such a great feat with my own power.’

By the end of her story, Yoo Seodam has gone. He disappeared as suddenly as he had appeared back on that rainy day.

Empress Sahar couldn’t hold him back by asking him to be her partner because he had always said, ‘There is something I have to do.’ He didn’t want to prevent him from achieving his dream and purpose.

“……It’s lonely.”

“is that so?”

“Yes. It’s very lonely. I feel like I’m alone in this Empire.”

Empress Sahar said so as she sat on a silver dragon throne which allowed her to see everything in the Empire. Even at this moment, millions of people of the Empire were looking only at her, however she had no intention to look back on them.

On her side, Aracelli said.

“Then leave. If you want to find it, you will be able to find it.”

“But…he went to a place I don’t know…”

“I once thought so as well.”

“….What?”

At Aracelli words, a question Empress Sahar had in her mind for so long resurfaced. Yoo Seodam was certainly someone from another world. So, what about Aracelli Rinekal? Where on earth did the ‘black wizard lady’, who didn’t exist in her first life, come from?

“To be honest, until now, I still don’t know in detail where the professor is. His hometown…is so far away that I can’t detect it nor reach it.”

“Then….”

“But throughout my life I keep trying to track him, and now, I’m able to follow the Professor’s trail like this.”

Aracelli burst into laughter and turned around.

“Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean you wouldn’t do it, right?”

As she said that, Aracelli disappeared.

In the end, Empress Sahar, who was left alone, could only stare at the place where Aracelli disappeared.

The world was full of things that cannot be understood, and there are numerous things that she still did not know.

Before long, she screamed someone’s name as if she was possessed.

“Kader. Are you there?”

-…..Is there any person in the world who calls a goddess so rudely like you?

“Just answer my question, Is it possible for humans to cross dimensions?”

– What are you talking about….

Goddess Kader seems to be taken aback, but she gently raised the corner of her mouth. She found Sahar’s question rather interesting. Sahar, who found a completely different ending than herself, was about to walk a whole new path. It’s something that she, who could foresaw time, couldn’t predict at all.

-I’m not sure. But I think there’s nothing impossible because even time could be reversed.

“You are the one who turns time back.”

-Huhuhu, do you really think so?

That was an ambiguous yet meaningful question.

-Humans are more powerful than you think. I have seen humans who created worlds, humans who killed god after running through space and time, and humans who, like your knight, change the fate of other worlds.

“……”

-And… I also saw humans who were finally able to change their past, after failing to do so even after trying for thousands of times.

As if Sahar understood something, her expression gradually brightened. And, Goddess Kader concluded her speech.

-If such things are possible, don’t you think crossing dimensions isn’t impossible?

As soon as she heard Goddess Kader’s words, Empress Sahar got up from her seat and ran towards somewhere. Goddess Kader, who looked at her back slowly turned around as she felt Sahar’s presence slowly fading.

Even with her power as Goddess of Time and Season, she doesn’t know what will happen in her future. It could be dangerous, or Sahar could fail and despair. Nevertheless, she was never scared.

Rather, the most fearful thing for the Goddess of Time and Season was a fixed future. It was very exciting to be able to see an unknown future unfold.

-To be able to paint the future yourself… It will be quite fun.

Goddess Kader hugged her fluttering chest tightly and closed her eyes, and she completely disappeared from this world.

[Successfully returned to the original world.]

When I opened my eyes, I could see the familiar ceiling of my officetel.

“…..”

Somehow, this mission left quite a bit of lingering feeling on my heart, so I almost couldn’t come back. I kept thinking of staying for one more day. If the client hadn’t warned me ‘If you don’t return soon, you could be assimilated here forever.’ I might have stayed there for several months.

“Sigh… That’s why it’s easier to hunt monsters.”

Monsters were creatures without emotions. There’s no need to interact emotionally with anyone.

<By the way, Seodam must have learned a lot from this trip.>

“…That’s right.”

By witnessing the destruction of Saintess Bianca, I was reminded once again about human love. Of course, I didn’t force anyone to love me because I didn’t have skill or talent related to ‘charm’. However, just because it was real love doesn’t mean I could thoughtlessly respond to it.

The first one I thought of was Taylor Nine, followed by Seol Jungyeon and Yekaterina.

“Sigh…. What am I supposed to do…….”

<Because you had interfered with the ‘fate’ of others, their ‘fate’ intertwined with your own ‘fate’ and has become a big weight….>

If you are an ordinary person there’s a saying that you would get married as soon as you found your fated one. But what will happen if you interfere with fate? The system explained that it was inevitable for the relationship to end up that way.

“I’m not going to ruin other people’s lives, am I?”

<There is no such thing. Because undoing an intertwined fate is difficult thing to do.>

“That’s fortunate….”

As time slowly passed as I stared blankly at the ceiling, I jumped up from my seat. There were a lot of things to do. There was no time to be sitting idly.

First of all, I changed my messenger’s profile message to ‘dispatch ended’ and then contacted several people. The time I stayed in another world this time was a little over three months, even so, only about a week had passed on Earth.

By hunting the protagonist this time, my level has risen by 7 levels to 152. The time to take a physical examination was in front of my eyes. Because stats-wise I had achieved ‘S-rank’.

‘I need to sharpen my mind while experimenting with the skill I got this time.’

With such a trivial thought, I put my hands in my sweatpants, and walked out.

However, on the first floor of the office building.

Click! Click! Click!

“…..IT’S HUNTER YOO Seodam!!!”

“Hunter Yoo Seodam, please tell us about the ‘Special Super Power Curriculum’ that was announced by Hunter Taylor Nine while she was promoted to SS-rank!”

“Master Yoo Seodam! Can you tell us in detail about the magical weapon ‘V3-KK0’ that you developed?”

“Is it true that superpower could also grow more effectively with the help of martial arts and magic?”

“Hunter Yoo Seodam!! Please answer us!”

I was taken aback by the sudden barrage of questions of the reporters.

‘Yekaterina, just what did you do while I wasn’t there…’
