Chapter 31- Demonic Love
"WOOOAAAAAAHHH!!" Out of nowhere, Rin found himself thrown in the air like a ragdoll. His body flipped a few tis before smashing into the door, breaking it in the process. His body then fell down on the hard ground outside of the room.
"Ugh… My back!!" He tried to stand up but the cruel pain from the hit assaulted him and made him wince.
However, that wasn't his biggest problem at the mont because right in front of him, a huge threat was standing motionlessly.
"Lina?" He muttered as his face turned serious.
"Why honey? Why did you do that?!!" She said as she kept looking down at the ground, her face covered by the veil of darkness.
Rin felt a chill run down his spine just from hearing her voice. But, for the sake of his survival and for the sake of clearing the dungeon, he threw away such thoughts to the back of his head.
Instead, a wide smirk appeared on his face. His eyes shone with a weird light.
"So you were a demon, in the end, Lina. As expected."
"W-What?!!!" Lina finally glared back at him with her non-existing eyes. Her broken and twisted teeth gnashed disgustingly, creating a sound akin to soone scratching a wooden table with their nails.
"I expected that from the mont I read the letters, you were just such an odd thing. I actually sympathized with you at first but I still felt that sothing was amiss."
[You know how to bluff, host. I'm almost convinced.]
'Shut up! If I die, you die too!'
"You were trying to control your husband and everything he cared for. Why? Why did you try to do that?"
Rin wanted answers before he had to face her. He wanted to know her motives.
"So…you were not my dear husband?"
"No." Rin shook his head honestly.
'Now, either I get fucked or I win. Her next words will determine that.'
"Why do you think I tried to control him? Why do you think I wanted him all for myself?" She asked.
Then, she touched her chest before adding.
"He's my everything. Without him, I would've never lived."
"Huh?" The boy tilted his head at her.
Of all the responses he expected, none of them included this. Was he wrong about sothing?
"Being a demon is the worst thing that happened to . Everyone hated my race and wanted us to perish. They killed, enslaved, and mistreated us just because we are supposedly 'created out of evil'. I lived my whole childhood running from one place to another with my parents. Running away for our dear lives from humans. I lived in fear and hunger for years and years."
Her face turned grimr and grimr the more she talked, he could hear the pain clearly in her voice. Rin knew that she was saying the truth… at least from her perspective.
"I wanted to find hope, to see the bright side. But, that only ended up with sitting alone, in a back alley, looking at the rotting corpses of my parents. They died so miserably I couldn't even cry for them. Then, I continued to live alone. A child that had no ho, no family, and no one to ask for help. It was certain that I will die at so point."
Taking a deep breath, from her disfigured nose, she tried to keep her calm. Rin was surprised she could all these kinds of emotions.
"That's when I t him. My husband, the love of my life. He found rotting in a small alley, under the rain. At that ti, I was on the brink of death. I had no water or food and I was just simply waiting for my end. Every ounce of hope I had in this life had long gone cold and all I had left was emptiness. My husband was the one that saved . He carried back ho, fed , took care of , and gave a place where I could sleep without fearing for my life."
"At first, I was wary of him and I frankly hated him. Humans were the reason for my misfortune so why should I care for them? But, no matter how much I tried to make him leave alone, he kept trying to talk with , feed , teach all kinds of things and even show things I never knew existed. Quickly, he turned into the bright sun of my life. I felt attached to him as if fate wanted us to be together forever. Without him, I can't continue a second in this world. He is the only thing that I live for… the only thing I can breathe for. That's why I wanted him all for myself, we were supposed to only look at each other and live for each other. No one should be there to take even a small part of his heart, all of his existence is mine and mine alone."
"That's… twisted…" Rin muttered to himself.
Out of everything that he thought could be a possible outco, this was the least probable yet also the most logical one out of all of them. All of it was indeed the cause of unhealthy and twisted love.
"But, on the day of our wedding. His brother… that human waste ca and tried to stop our fateful day. He tried to kill in front of my beloved. That's why I killed him first, I destroyed his corpse in front of my husband just so that he knows how much I care for him. He only needs after all. But, he didn't like that and tried to kill …"
The hand that was holding her chest tightened and blood soon trickled down her robe, dying it in crimson color. Then, out of nowhere, she ripped her chest open easily. In her hand was a chunk of blood and flesh.
"I had no choice but to kill him too. But, I wanted to show him how much I loved him. I wanted him to be a part of for eternity."
Rin's eyes moved to her chest where a huge hole was created. There, he could see, as clear as day… two hearts were sitting next to each other, beating slowly.
"See… To this day, our hearts are still linked together. They are still next to each other. We are going to be together for the rest of eternity."
pAn,Da-n0v e1,c 'Goddamn!!' Rin's eyes widened from sheer shock.
"You call that love? Killing your husband is not love!"
"Who are you to judge our relationship? It's none of your business!!!"
'She's totally crazy! Wait… So all of this was actually a yandere situation!! Fuck!!' Rin's face turned pale.
He knew very well how hard 'yandere stories' are. Yanderes are basically the hardest thing a human could face. No matter how strong, no matter how capable you are, their twisted and ntally broken ideas would always have the upper hand no matter what. They are akin to crazy goddesses. Secretly, Rin liked these types of characters as he found their love, as twisted as it was, sothing beautiful in a way.
Rin was soone who liked to cherish anyone he loves a lot. He doesn't like people quickly but when he likes them, they beco sothing he wants to give his whole attention to. It was weirdly similar to how yanderes work albeit more on the wholeso side of things rather than the twisted side.
That's when he's talking about a normal, human yandere. Now, imagine a yandere that's also a bloodthirsty demon who is coming for his head. It was a very bad situation.
[You are a hopeless pervert, host.]
'How did you even co to that conclusion?!!'
[You want soone that is obsessed with you. My database only concludes that you are a pervert. Well, considering your hobbies, the chances of that being the case are quite high if not certain.]
'I won't allow such disrespect! I won't forget this!!'
"Now… because of you, that peaceful life of ours is ruined… You also tricked into thinking you're my husband… I'm going to kill you!!!!"
Then, Lina threw the pieces of flesh to the side. Her hand then grabbed another part of her body and started ripping the flesh off of her bones maniacally. calling that sight grueso is an understatent.
Each piece of flesh that fell to the ground started wiggling left and right as if it was a living being.
'This… is not good.' Rin gulped down a mouthful of saliva as he watched the scene silently.
