[In Rain's Room]
Rain was lying on the bed, deep in slumber, with a peaceful expression on his face.
His body was still, and his breathing was steady, indicating that he was in a state of profound rest.
While thinking about Emma and his past, Rain didn't know when he slept.
Even though Rain had been consuming potions and elixirs, his mind was exhausted and stressed from the intense training that he had been undergoing.
His ntal fatigue and stress had accumulated over ti, and he desperately needed a break.
As a result, he slept soundly on his bed, oblivious to the world around him. In his exhausted state, he had not even had dinner, which only contributed to his already depleted energy levels.
At so point, Mark entered the room to check on Rain. However, Rain did not respond to his calls, and because of that Mark entered the room.
Upon entering the room, Mark saw that Rain was in a deep sleep.
After seeing Rain's state, Mark simply left the room without disturbing him deciding that he needed rest rather than anything else.
In the middle of the night, Rain was stirred awake from his slumber by the constant nagging of his thoughts about the plot, Emma, Kaya, and the heroines.
Unable to find solace in his bed, Rain decided to venture outside and go for a walk.
To avoid making any noise, he used his "Shadow walk" technique and made his way quietly to the lakeside.
Even though he just got this skill yesterday, as he used it in Naless Grave many tis. His was sowhat adapted to it.
This was Rain's favorite location, and it happened to be conveniently located near his ho.
Once he arrived, he settled down by the shore, taking a mont to sit and reflect.
The tranquility of the lake's surroundings and the calmness of the night gave him a sense of peace, providing so much-needed respite from his worries. Rain started thinking.
'I was introverted from childhood. In my previous life, I didn't have parents. Neither they ca to nor I found them.
However in this life, I have parents, and they care about . I know they have difficulties with Kaya, uncle, and aunty's death. But what about ?'
One of Rain's death flags was also his relationship with his parents.
His parents didn't want to feel Kaya a lack of parents and they knew Kaya's hate for Rain.
Still, they did nothing. If only they did sothing, his and Kaya's relationship would be different.
'They also didn't do anything about Emma. If they had told about Emma and canceled the engagent abruptly.'
'We still would be friends.' Rain lanted.
As he thought this, he felt how dumb it sounded.
'No, it's just my imagination.' Then he just shook his head.
'When they told to stay away from Emma, I didn't listen. Now I'm questioning my decision. I don't think Emma, who seems to "hate n", would ever want to be friends with . Why was I so foolish?' He couldn't help but question himself, wondering why he had made a foolish mistakes.
Rain's second death flag was Kaya,
even for her parents' revenge, she did everything to make fall him into the abyss.
Even in the plot, Rain knew everything she did, but he forgave her. He thought - she did it for her parents.
He believed - after she takes revenge for her parents, they will beco good siblings like they were in childhood.
'But...
Was it naive to think like this?' Rain questioned himself. Nothing like this happened in the plot.
And Rain's third death flag was his classmate Arya Hillson, a Third heroine and only heroine with whom he was sowhat friendly.
After his relationships with Kaya and Emma turned sour, Arya was his only friend.
She was from a common family, still Rain beca friends with her.
However, she never took his side and just snuggled in the arms of the Protagonist.
'Was I the only one who thought that we were friends?' Although he didn't have much relationship with Arya he still felt bad.
The last nail in the coffin was Emma.
The first friend of Rain.
Rain's first & only love. His fiancé.
If you ask whom Rain trusted most, it would be Emma.
'Looks like in every world pink-colored hair heroines are heartbreakers, huh…' Rain just smiled wryly.
'Although only so things have happened till now.
Will I be betrayed and killed by them in the future? Still, thinking about the plot in the ga makes my heart ache.'
Rain's chest hurt just by thinking this.
'Why? Even in my previous life, I was lonely and never had parents.
Even if I don't say it, I also wanted a happy family. I also wanted friends. But I couldn't make them. Seeing those greedy eyes of people, I often get scared.'
Rain's feelings were gradually coming out.
'I also wanted to love soone.
But the man who never got a single shred of love, how can he love soone else?
After everything, my emotions died.'
Even in his past life, Rain never felt like this.
'I just lived like a machine and kept working in the black company. In the end, I also died lonely.
I am also lonely in this life. It appears that like our na we are the sa, huh. As his ego said, we are not two but one.
After all, Rain Hols & Rain are a single person, who lived a different life.' Rain chuckled at himself.
Then he started thinking about future events.
'Day after tomorrow on my birthday,
Emma will give an engagent dissolvnt contract as a gift.
I also have the old dissolvnt contract she gave before the duel. Now I will have 2 of them. It will be like pairs.' Rain felt funny about this. A pair of contracts might look beautiful.
'Kaya will also make fun of .
Yeah, she will beat up duel and this ti it would be solo. Because in the ga, Rain at that ti was still injured. She will also start making her faction after this in earnest.'
Although now he was healed, thinking about whether he will be challenged or Kaya will co up with another plot. Rain felt complex feelings.
'And my parents will do nothing.
Just like my every birthday, they will host a huge, grand ass party and give money as a gift.
Still, I don't think I can't say about this. After all, I was the fool who said - Kaya is not a competitor, she is my sister. So treat her kindly whatever she does to .'
Rain laughed at himself.
'How foolish I was? What kind of bug bit to say this?' Rain wanted to beat his past self.
'You can say this will be the worst birthday for . Even thinking about it. It pains .'
Looking at the lake, Rain recalled that this was the place where he first t Emma.
That's the reason that this was his favorite place.
Rain downcasted his face, and started staring at his reflection in the lake.
Then he saw that a handso man was crying there.
'Looks like for the first ti in two lives I cried, huh.' Rain muttered inwardly.
"Hey Mark, you did the job I told you?"
Rain knew that Mark was hiding behind the tree. He follows him for security reasons many tis. That's why he took Charles' permission before outdoor training, so nobody would follow him.
"Yes, you master."
Mark grimly answered. It looked like he didn't think - Rain knew he would follow him.
"Hey, Mark, you know, even with getting a chance to (reincarnate and) live happily ever after.
I can even resolve myself to do bad things, you know? And becoming a villain in everyone's eyes.
I can even withstand being hated by those around , even my loved ones.
(Even died by hands of them whom I love.)
Even if they hate , I just hopelessly love them.
But... This Loneliness is hard to bear."
After saying this, Rain quickly wiped the tears, and with a bright smile he said,
"Let's go, There are many things to do."
After so ti, Rain returned to the room and slept comfortably.
Rain felt that shoulders were light like so heavy weight was lifted from there.
The pressure he endured till now by himself was lifted. The chains of relationships were not binding him now. He was truly free from everything.
