Let’s Start Part 2 of this Ruined Work

    Instruction? Why do I see that? Above all…….

    ‘Are you crazy? How can you say that to a child!’

    As I kept my mouth shut, the instructions popped up again.

    [Stage 3: (Coldly shaking off the child's hand) Who told you to come into my bedroom?]

    ‘Damn it…….’

    As I closed and opened my eyes, I gently grabbed the child's hand and let it go. I couldn't bear to shake off the child's hand.

    “……!”

    That alone made me feel pain in my chest. I held my breath and managed to put on a cold expression.

    “Who told you to come into my bedroom?”
    “I, I was just, just worried……. I’m, I’m sorry. I, I was, was wr, wrong.”

    The child bowed her head with a look of great dismay.

    [Stage 3: (Look as if it bothers you) Get out of here.]

    “Get…… get out of here.”
    “……Yess.”

    The child trudged out. Looking at the small back and droopy shoulders, my heart seemed to hurt more. I wanted to run and hug her right away.

    Click.

    The child whined open the heavy door and walked out.

    I waited until I could no longer hear the child's footsteps before jumping out of bed.

    “What the hell is going on here!!!”

    I opened the terrace door wide and ran out to the terrace. A vast and antique mansion. Imperial Palace visible in the distance. All familiar.

    “I didn't return to the original world…….”

    Obviously, I saved my comrades and gave up my own life. Just like the original ending.

    If so, it's normal to see the atmosphere full of fine dust and densely packed buildings…… Why is it the same?

    ‘Don't tell me that the novel isn't over yet…….’

    Shivered.

    Wow, I got goosebumps just thinking about it. To think that this ruined work was not over.

    I didn't think so. As I fell into the darkness with the demon king,

    -The End-

    I clearly saw those letters.

    Then what was that Stage 3 instruction?

    “…….”

    There seemed to be an ominous energy coming from somewhere. I shook my head to get rid of the bad thoughts.

    ‘No! I must have seen something in my sleep. Ye, yeah, that’s right!’

    <I Became a Warrior to Save the World>, a fantasy novel with a childish title, had a perfect ending.

    This wasn't just an illusion, it was a fact.

    “Then what the hell happened?”

    It was when I scattered my hair violently in frustration.

    “Uh?”

    ‘Platinum blonde? My hair was a common dark brown……?’

    W, wait, doesn't it feel like I've been through this once?

    When I opened my eyes, I found a strange place ー> Completely different body ー> I was flustered.

    ‘Crazy! That's exactly it!’

    This situation now was exactly the same as when I was possessed by that damn novel.

    “No, no way…… Am I possessed again?”

    My mind became confused. I was not the type of person who had the constitution of being possessed easily. Did it make sense to be possessed twice?

    In addition…….

    “What do you mean I’m possessed again when the original work is over? Is this possible?”

    I threw away my hair, which was as thin as a silken thread, and twisted, and stretched out my hands.

    “Undine.”

    Drops of water started bubbling up from the palm of my hand.

    ‘Fortunately, spiritism works.’

    Soon, a tiny head protruded from the palm of my hand, like a ghost passing through a wall.

    - Yawn- Adele, Why are you waking me up already? I haven't slept much…… Slept…… much…….

    Undine, who was yawning loudly and complaining in her sleep, suddenly opened her eyes wide.

    Naturally, her eyes were large enough to take up half of her face.

    - You, you are not Adele? No, this magic power belongs to Adele, right? Suspicious human! Reveal your identity!
    “I'm Adele, I think I'm possessed.”
    - Possessed? You mean the forbidden soul transfer technique? Do you think I'll believe that? You bad human! How could our Adele do it! Give me Adele!
    “Didn’t you say that you can recognize me even if I switch bodies with the demonic beast? Undine, I'm hurt.”

    Undine, who was huffing and flying, stopped in the air. Tears soon filled her big eyes.

    - It, it’s Adele! Adele! You were alive! Alive! Uoahhhh! Sorry! I won't bother you again! Don't die nooooow! Huaaaahh!.

    Undine grabbed my hair and shed tears.

    “If you cry roughly, explain. What happened.”

    Undine tilted her head and wiped her eyes.

    - Uh um? Explain what? You don't remember?
    “No, I remember. I died with the demon king.”
    - What's next?
    “I don't know what’s next. Because I'm dead.”

    Undine's eyes fluttered. However, she managed to hold back her tears and continue talking.

    - You were sucked into the ground with the demon king. We thought you'd come out…… No matter how long I wait, you won't come out. Then, suddenly, the magic power that was transmitted from you was cut off.
    “So?”
    - We believed you were alive. Because the spirit contract was still being maintained. That's why I'm waiting for you…… The king said. You're already dead.
    “Ah…….”
    - The reason the contract is maintained is that only the soul is alive…… This was a special case. Humans are different from spirits, so without the body, it's the same as being dead.

    Undine shed tears again.

    - You know what we were like? Do you know how we felt when we saw you choose to die with the demon king! Why the hell did you do that? Why did you die!

    That was the end of the original story.

    I had no choice but to act like the original. Only then could I return to the original world.

    No, I thought so.

    - Adele, did you really hate us and was bothered by us to the point of death? No, right? It's not like that, right? We heard it wrong, didn't we?

    Undine seems to have kept in mind my last words ‘It was awful being together and let's never meet again’.

    “Don't get me wrong. I wasn't talking to you guys.”
    - Then? Who did you talk to? Demon king?

    No, to the motherf*cking author of that damn novel.

    The bastard who called me, who was living a fine life, into this failure of a novel. The bastard who gave me pain if I didn't follow instructions.

    Even if I poured out all the curse words I knew, it was not enough.

    “Just a crazy guy.……. But that's all you have to tell me?”
    - What do you mean?
    “Did anything else happen, by any chance? Whether a major incident has occurred or a tremendous accident has taken place……. In any case, the end of the world.”
    - Ooh um? What are you talking about? Why is the world ending?

    ‘This place is a novel, because the original work is over!’

    I suppressed the words welling up in my throat and smiled. Then Undine's face turned red.

    - But…… Adele. I think you'd better look in the mirror.
    “Why.”
    - It, it’s just…….

    Steam was bubbling over Undine's head. Like when the water boils. It was an expression of the feeling of falling in love that was unique to the water spirit.

    Then I felt something strange. Undine had never shown me anything like that except when I defeated a demonic beast.

    “Undine, look for the mirror.”
    - Eung! Here!

    The person in the mirror was so different from me when I was a warrior.

    A small face, white skin, and a sharp nose. The lips were also smooth and thick, drawing attention.

    Above all, my long, rich, platinum hair and dark blue eyes made me look like a porcelain doll made with great care by a craftsman. My physique was slim and slender, with a handful of waist. It was completely different from my 178cm tall and muscular body back then.

    ‘How does a person look like this? There is nothing ugly about it.’

    The nails were pretty too. Albeit a bit long.

    When I was admiring my hands.

    The damn phenomenon that I thought I would never see again appeared before my eyes.

    [Ddi-ring!]

    [Even after Part 1 ends, the story continues! That's how Part 2 started! Welcome to <I Became a Saint to Save the World>!

    You are Adrian Ibrante, a supporting character.

    The default rules are as shown in Part 1, but a few things have been added. We will let you know more details later.

    Then, you who have perfectly completed Part 1 <I Became a Warrior to Save the World>! Shall we run hard until the day that Part 2, <I Became a Saint to Save the World> is completed?]

    I was not wrong. It was true that <I Became a Warrior to Save the World> was over. But the problem was…….

    ‘Did you write this cursed, ruined work up to Part 2?’

    I flopped down on my knees.

    “I’m beat.”
