Hate Me, Miss Witch!

Chapter 16 I did hear your wish

He actually wasn't just making up lies to comfort me.

But...really jumped?

Thinking about it this way, when I was still thinking wildly before, I was really being ridiculous.

Thinking like this, Sylvia also clenched her silver teeth.

Then he closed his eyes and jumped down.

Although I met a person who spoke very strangely, no matter what, I came to jump into the sea today.

Even if some accidents occurred, the goal was achieved.

And, as the man said.

If you have a companion on the road to the underworld, you won't seem to be so lonely.

The feeling of weightlessness came with the sound of wind whistling in my ears.

Immediately afterwards, the cold feeling of the seawater quickly swallowed her up.

The currents in the Grant Sea are extremely turbulent.

Not to mention being tutored by the Grand Ducal Brunstadt family, Silvia has never learned to swim since she was born.

Even those fishermen who have grown up by the sea since childhood and have excellent water skills would never dare to enter the water in such stormy weather.

Soon, cold seawater poured into her mouth. The salty touch combined with the suffocation caused by lack of oxygen made Sylvia extremely painful.

She felt like her body was sinking, as if she were falling into an abyss.

In the field of vision, the light gradually dimmed.

The sparkling sea level is no longer visible, and only a little light penetrates the dark water, illuminating this silent world.

The Grand Sea in winter is very cold, bone-chilling.

Hearing, vision, smell...

All Sylvia's perceptions were rapidly fading, and then returned to nothingness.

I want to...

do you died?

In this boundless darkness, without the usual noise and pressure, Sylvia felt that her thoughts had become particularly clear.

Countless scenes that she had forgotten appeared like a revolving lantern at this moment.

Although I don’t have many memories, I had a wonderful childhood under the protection of my parents.

The first time he lost control, he not only killed several servants in the house, but also seriously injured his mother who was worried about him, and also truly exposed his secret to the world.

They met accidentally, but after knowing their true identity, they looked at their former close friend with eyes mixed with fear and hatred...

On the hospital bed, the woman knew that she was not going to die soon, but she still forced a smile to comfort her crying daughter...

The father who guarded the border all year round, but when he occasionally returned to the royal capital, he would still comfort her with clumsy words, and used the authority of the Grand Duke to exclude the criticism of the clan members...

There is also the small tree that was planted in the courtyard with his parents when he was four years old and now has lush leaves and white flowers.

Memories came flooding back.

Sylvia suddenly felt panicked for no reason.

Maybe there are many people in the entire principality who really want her dead...

However, there are indeed people who want her to live.

Sylvia suddenly didn't want to die.

In the cold water, she finally figured out the true meaning of the word "butcher" in the young man's words.

From beginning to end, what I carry is not just the weight of one person's life.

But at this moment, she was giving up her life so sadly and self-defeatingly.

The originally empty body was re-infused with power.

Sylvia struggled to wave her limbs that were already numb to the point of losing consciousness, fighting against the undercurrent in the ocean, and struggling to swim above the sea level.

But her efforts were not rewarded.

The raging waves of the Grant Sea are too frightening even for fishermen with excellent water skills, let alone a delicate girl who has never learned to swim?

The moment before the undercurrent of the deep sea completely exhausted her remaining physical strength.

Sylvia, whose heart was filled with regret and self-blame, heard a familiar voice.

"Just drown in the sea, die quietly and without any ripples."

"After you die, your loved ones will cry for you."

"And those countless people who once hated you and ostracized you will applaud you one after another."

"They will say, you, the broom star, would be better off dead——"

"Then just like in the past [Witch Hunting], the crimes and mistakes that originally belonged to you will be thrown on you indiscriminately to excuse yourself. The dead will not defend themselves anyway."

"Because as long as they do this, they can completely absolve themselves of their guilt and continue to live their lives with peace of mind."

"Do you accept this ending?"

The boy's voice passed through the sea water and sounded clearly and unmistakably in Sylvia's ears.

"No……"

As soon as Sylvia opened her mouth, the cold seawater swept in and swallowed her mouth.

Even though his consciousness has long been blurred due to long-term lack of oxygen.

But Sylvia still tried her best to open her mouth in the sea water, and expressed her true feelings like a roar.

"I do not accept!"

"Of course I won't accept it!"

only.

I'm afraid my voice cannot be heard in this deep sea.

As soon as such thoughts arose, Sylvia heard a pleasant chuckle.

"In that case."

"I did hear your wish."

Immediately afterwards.

Sylvia felt a hand that was not very strong but had distinct joints grab her arm and pull her into her arms.

I do not know how long it has been.

She heard the roar of the roaring waves of Grant's Sea again, and the dark sky.

There was a solid touch on the ground again, which made Sylvia feel extremely lucky.

Her nerves that had been tense finally relaxed completely after experiencing a near-death experience at this moment.

However, that is at this moment.

Sylvia relaxed for a moment.

Deep in her heart, the bronze cross binding the dark shadow suddenly roared.

In an instant, countless low and indescribable murmurs echoed again.

Oops!

I actually forgot to suppress that thing...

Sylvia was not given any time to regret or react.

The dark shadow quickly flowed down the bronze cross, and in an instant, her already weak self-will was shaken to the extreme.

"Do not come near me……"

"quick……"

"escape……"

With just enough time to use her last sense to leave such words, Sylvia's consciousness gradually became hazy and blurred.

Slowly but inexorably falling into the abyss.

The moment before completely losing consciousness.

Sylvia heard that familiar, reassuring voice again.

"Now that I have received your wish——"

"Then leave it to me."

Sylvia felt a big fluffy tail reach over and lightly touch her cheek.

The next moment, her consciousness completely sank into nothingness, not knowing where to go.
