Living as an Unemployed in Another World

143 – 5. Witch Moon (19)

5. Witch’s Moon – Erosion (2)

First of all, the part where the senses returned was none other than the face. A witch who created dimensional erosion with her own hands. There is no way I would dare to express dislike in front of such an existence.

I forcibly raised the corners of my mouth. Desperately, desperately, I concentrated all my strength on the muscles in my face instead of my frozen body. As a result, it was barely enough to be called laughter. I didn’t even know what face I was making.

“Thank you…… Master.”

“Ah!”

She came to me groaning as if my words were a sweet hymn of blessing. My body was sucked between her open arms. A voluptuous female body gently embraced my body.

It’s an ecstatic sensation that made her wish it were all a dream, but the distortion of the space that blows behind her even now is definitely a reality. My eyes were closed, but my ears were open, and even though I ignored the deafening sound, my heart still beat wildly.

I could no longer enjoy the arms of the person I loved. Those slender arms made me feel like an unknown monster from a distant universe. She whispered her sweet voice in my trembling ear.

“I love you… ….”

“… ….”

“I love all of you. I also wanted to say this all along. I wanted to repay your heart. But, obviously, something stood between us…….”

The shadow and the light roared in an instant. All the air in her room screamed, and a knife-like wind hit her back and the back of her head, but she was the only one freed from its effects. As if the witch was protecting me like that, the witch held me in her arms and gave strength to her arms.

“I wanted to reconcile with you and clear up the ‘misunderstanding’, but I couldn’t. Because I had to get rid of that obstacle, the severance of cognition, as soon as possible. And, as you can see, it worked.”

The witch turned her head and muttered as she looked at the sight she had created.

“No matter how many times I try, it’s perfect…… Among the countless magics I’ve created so far, this is by far the best masterpiece. It’s heartbreaking to have to be away from you for a while for that ‘implantation’…… Don’t worry, it’s going to be a very fleeting moment compared to the time we’re going to spend.”

My throat was dry. A breath escaped from the suffocated lungs. The witch pushed her head closer, curling the corners of her eyes, as if she were asking me to praise herself, as if demanding compensation for her past three months.

I ran a trembling hand through my rather frizzy, but still soft, hair. Her master, her master, summoned her courage and barely called her, but her witch put her finger on her mouth and blocked it. I had no freedom.

“There is no need to call me Master…… After another week, you will be equal to me. We will be together for a long eternity.”

One week. I pondered on that.

My second birthday in this world. The day you become an adult.

Before that, you must run away. I looked up at her, still smiling and buried in her chest.

“…… Sure.”

“Jin… ….”

The witch gently embraced my face and kissed her.

A long-awaited deep kiss with a woman he once loved.

A deep and dense kiss mixed with bodily fluids, no different from a human’s, continued for a long time in the crack. She shyly blushed. As if waiting for me to put my tongue in first, he whispered without letting me go even after time passed.

“You are my first…… Everything.”

Hearing that, I closed my eyes tightly. He forced her jaw open and stuck her tongue between her straight teeth.

Tongue to tongue intertwined, breathing in each other, nose rubbing, the dense time I once wanted so much passed in the middle of her room. But there, the emotional connection no longer existed.

All that exists is the struggle of small creatures to get out of this place.

There is only one mortal who flirts and fawns with all his might against the ruler of the dimension.

After the long kiss, I hurried out of her arms when the monster was drunk to the fullest in that brief moment.

The image of the woman I loved.

The figure of the teacher I admired.

All the monsters I feared were mixed together.

I wanted to get out of there, and I just did.

A mansion with no sign of life at all.

Even her inhuman beauty.

A forest from which you can never escape.

Even from the words of failed wizards.

A light image created by the collision of two dimensions.

Everything was not enough.

For the weak ego to accept the country,

For my feeble brain to process,

For my feeble heart to endure——!!

“Mandible, mandible…… Heo-eok, kuk, cool–wooweeek!!”

I braced myself against the stair railing and began to vomit onto the floor tiles. The contents mixed with warm gastric juices were scattered all over the place. My vision shook and everything went black.

Fleeing from the stench billowing upward, I staggered open the gate and immediately headed for the yard.

You have to run away.

You have to run away.

You have to run away.

“Woo-wook…… !!”

When the nausea started to rise again, I immediately covered my mouth.

Familiar scenery came into my tear-stained eyesight.

I didn’t even know why I was running here.

I just wanted to run away from there a little bit.

I could. I was going to run straight into the woods with my one and only friend, the grotesque skull.

However, even after looking around the mansion, he was nowhere to be seen.

“…… Nightmare?”

A skeleton monster born from negative energy. Calling out the name of that thing that was obviously infinitely close to the undead, I desperately searched for it, but its bones never showed up.

Time passed, and I looked up at the sky.

Just before the full moon rises.

The cut off moon that gave its body to the nightmare was floating in the night sky.

Until erosion, another 6 days.

I finally got down on my knees.

When I listened closely, I heard the sound of footsteps in the distance to greet me, who did not return even after time passed.

Sabak, sabak, stepping on the mansion’s lawn and slowly approaching, the gait of a monster in love disturbed my ears.

A woman’s voice is heard.

His voice was so sweet that it sounded like deadly poison to me.

She called my name several times, but I never turned back.

It should have been like this from the beginning.

She doesn’t know my heart.

She doesn’t know the human mind.

Perhaps we will never know.

We were destined not to meet in the first place…….

※

There was the sound of the clock ticking and shaking. As befits a luxury inn built in the city, every floor had a wall-mounted clock that looked like it was crafted by an artisan. It is the only noise that echoes in the stillness.

“…… I can not believe it.”

The first to speak was Mira.

Among these, the woman who first heard from me about what happened with the witch.

Nevertheless, she did not hide her astonishment.

“Jin, isn’t that witch hypnotized you? Artifacts and special spells can distort memories…….”

I shook my head. What I saw that day, what happened in the mansion, was just someone’s scheme, so many things pointed to the truth. Even the memories I once forgot.

“It makes no sense. Are you saying that someone like that is targeting you somewhere? That could be dismissed as witchy, like… ….”

She muttered uncharacteristically, stuttering her words.

“Dimensional Ruler…… You can’t even compare to a god like Zulkar.”

“Goddess…… It is no different from a spiritual being located in a pantheon.”

Muttered Grace. She had a calm expression throughout the story. But the severely narrowed brow just let me know that she wasn’t dismissing my story as a drunken delusion.

“In the myths that have been handed down since ancient times, there are countless records of gods manifesting themselves in human form and walking the earth. But…… Based on the impression you said and the circumstances you have heard…… “

She shared her priestly views with us. It seems that there is nothing to guess about her identity. Alphonse, who had been stroking her beard, spoke up.

“I’m talking about a place called Obido Forest, but it is a real forest. I have heard of it.”

Everybody noticed him. I nodded. Yes, that mansion is not the place of my daydreams. After desperately running away, I finally came to my senses and realized which continent I was on and which part of the world I was on. Coniferous forests under the hills, thousands of kilometers from where we are now. Let alone a mansion, I had spent a year and a half in a place where people stopped walking.

The story continues. I bowed my head. My drunken body was more excited than usual, recalling the memory of that day.

I saw the moon.
