The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

26 – Unwanted Colleagues (9)

The name ‘Erina’ was more important to her than anything else.

A precious name given to her by her own master.

A word that proves your love for yourself. It was nothing but a blessing to prove the meaning of existence.

Even if everything was taken away, I swore I would keep the name forever.

Erina received a lot. Body, voice, and equipment.

It was all given to him by him.

There was nothing insignificant.

But if you could choose just one of them, she would choose a name without hesitation.

To Erina, her name is a word with great meaning.

‘I’m Erina. The name given by the owner. Proof that he has blessed me.’

She only deserved the blessing she herself was.

She has believed that she is the only one chosen in this world.

But her faith was shattered.

He gave the nameless dragon himself.

‘Kyla.’

The name Seohyun gave to the nameless dragon.

Like Erina, it means that she is also chosen.

Upon learning of that fact, Erina could not keep her sane at all.

All her beliefs, which she had cherished until now, were uprooted.

A part of my heart, which was always strong, collapsed.

She felt the pain in her chest tearing apart.

I lost my precious name right in front of her.

What she did not want to even imagine has come to reality.

“Why… Why did you do that?!”

Does the owner no longer love him? Did love run out? Are you tired of it at all?

Erina couldn’t figure out why, no matter how much she thought about it.

She believed that everything she had done until now she had done for him was for him.

Her own life is solely for her master.

She lived a day without forgetting that thought.

She

She believed that she would be loved as long as she tried herself.

But rather, the actions were destroying her trust.

Without her noticing, he was moving away from him.

She couldn’t do anything as the thought entered her head.

She couldn’t do anything but lie on the floor and cry.

“Erina.”

Her crying came to her.

Her head hurt at the sight of her crying out loud as if she had lost everything.

Clearly Erina did her fault. She didn’t even have a fight with the guest of the inn, so she messed up her room and almost killed Kyla.

But she was crying sadly, as if she had done something wrong.

She sincerely did not know what her own fault was.

She was like a pack of seven. The problem is that Erina is an adult, not a child.

“I get it, stop crying now.”

She comforted me with a calm tone. As she showed no signs of calming down, she grabbed her hand and patted her on the back.

“I really like you! Ugh, so I just wanted to protect you…!”

“Yes. I know.”

The way it was done was radical, but I knew of course that Erina liked me.

But this method is wrong. She had to fix it somehow.

This is just the beginning. In the future, other colleagues besides Kyla will come in.

If you keep reacting like this every time, it’s like building a castle on sand. Someday it will collapse

“I truly believe in you! I’ve never doubted you, never distrusted you…!”

“I know.”

“Then why did you make a strange contract with a woman like that…!”

“Everything is necessary.”

“No! I didn’t have to! It’s something I’ll protect forever!”

“That’s impossible.”

When I met an unnamed dragon, I almost fell off a cliff and died.

For that moment, she couldn’t help me either.

This will happen a lot in the future.

Someday, I might be separated from Erina.

“You know. I almost would have died if it wasn’t for Kyla last time.”

“That’s…!”

For Erina, it was no less than a huge mistake.

It was also the reason I had to be strong.

From noble mtl dot com

“I said many times. I want to be strong.”

There is no other reason why I became a courageous knight.

To build trust with Kyla.

And to have a class called Dragon Knight.

In order to get stronger than Erina in a straight line.

“I want to protect myself more than you protect me. It doesn’t mean I don’t trust you.”

“…”

“It just means you want to do your part.”

And I had to stop Erina from doing this again.

When she was left alone while sleeping, she started fighting with people in the inn.

I tried to kill Kyla while I opened my eyes for a moment.

Someday, there is a possibility that I will act while ignoring my words.

That’s why I had to hold on to the leash.

I had to restrain myself from running wild.

So I had to be strong.

“I will continue to be with Kyla from now on.”

As if she absolutely hated that, Erina defiantly shook her head.

But I did not back down. In times like these, I had to be more stubborn.

“Remember what I said at the fountain back in the day?”

“Yes…”

She said that she would always trust her.

Erina also swore that she would be by my side.

She is lying to me.

Knowing that fact, I accepted the belief.

After all, Erina is a character I created.

Also, he had endless affection for me.

In this situation, if not me, who would be with her?

“I want to stay with you.”

“Me too…”

“You’re more special than Kyla. You’re my first colleague.”

I grabbed her hand tightly. I hoped that faith would be transmitted.

Fortunately, there was a response to my words.

Erina looked at me with her sad eyes.

I could feel the earnestness in her shaking eyes.

“Am I really more important to you…?”

“Yes. I’m serious.”

“Does that mean you like her more than that…?”

“Yes.”

“You mean that you care about me the most, love me, like me, trust me, and think of me more than a b*tch like that…?”

I began to speak more and more harshly.

Insanity was flowing from his trembling eyes.

Still, I kept nodding my head.

“Yes. I like you more than Kyla.”

As the words continued, the tremors of the body gradually decreased.

The rough breathing also subsided.

The excitement subsided and returned to normal.

Just as it was, Erina came up to me and hugged me.

Changing like a child looking for warmth.

Holding my waist, I made a pod with my hands.

“I really like you…”

“I know.”

“I love you more than anyone. I want to live with only you.”

“That is,”

“I’ll never let you down. I’ll be the perfect companion to the point where you feel like you don’t need someone like that…!”

“…”

“So, I’ll try to be patient for now…”

Erina has yet to shake off her obsession.

But she didn’t at least ignore the presence of her comrades.

She tacitly recognized Kyla as her colleague.

For now, this was the best I could do.

“Good luck with Kyla.”

“Yes…”

I just got an answer. Even if it wasn’t her friendly demeanor, she could tinkerly get an answer from Nama Erina.

“And never fight again.”

“Okay…”

She nodded her head even though she looked unsure.

That’s all I could say.

The conversation is finally over.

She gently pushed Erina out of her arms and sighed.

So many things have happened since dawn.

I barely got up from my seat, exhausted.

“Come out after you calm down, okay?”

“Yes…”

We needed some time to think for each other.

I also had something to say with Kyla.

So I decided to leave her alone for a while.

As she was about to open the door and leave, Erina’s voice was heard.

“I’m sorry, I was wrong…”

She did not dare to answer.

I hurried out and closed the door.

I could barely breathe.

But it’s not over yet.

There was still work to be done.

As soon as she left the room, Kyla caught her eye.

She leaned against the wall in the hallway with her robe on.

As soon as he saw me, he came to me and bowed his head.

“Kyla.”

“Yes.”

You probably heard everything Erina and I had to say.

If it was this far, I couldn’t have heard it.

Kyla, unlike Erina, was not agitated.

She was waiting for me with a rather wretched look.

“She will apologize to you when Erina comes out.”

“Yes.”

“I’m sorry, but can I accept your apology?”

A little while ago, she made up with the person who tried to kill her.

This is a request that no one can grant.

But Kyla smiled casually and nodded her head.

“I see.”

She listened to me calmly enough to feel apologetic.

Unlike Erina, Kyla was not particularly concerned.

Perhaps the story will end without much friction.

“And I want to ask you something.”

“Yes. Please tell me.”

“Tell me what you and Erina said until now.”

Kyla started talking without hesitation.

Erina told me everything from the conversation I had last night to the reason we started fighting.

Among them, there was one problem.

“Master?”

“Yes. Erina-nim called Seohyun-nim that way.”

You are the master. Erina had never called me by that name.

It will never be a coincidence.

I remembered the words she had muttered in her madness a while ago.

I thought that the obsession she has shown so far is not just affection.

‘Are you thinking of me as your master?’

There was absolutely no reason for that.

At first, I was just a gamer who played Erina.

There was no reason for her to call me her master.

At the moment of contemplation, Kyla spoke to me in a trembling voice.

“He and I have a question for you.”

It was the first time Kyla asked me a question.

Naturally, she nodded her head and listened to her.

“Seohyun has become my knight. I need a proper title for the person I need to serve. And there are a few titles I have in mind.”

I said every word, but in the end the meaning was simple.

How can you call me?

I thought it would be okay to just call it anything, but it doesn’t seem to be from her point of view.

Looking at me, Kyla cautiously suggested to me.

“From now on, even if I call you master or master…”

“No. Just call me like you used to.”

She immediately stopped her by waving her hand.

Even so, I couldn’t listen to this.

In fact, her respectful words were too heavy for her, who was a lot older than me.

But you are the master. It was like a play of numbers.

“Okay. Then I’ll just call you Seohyun…”

He looked very sad, but he tried to ignore it.

What would have happened if she had said this in front of Erina.

Just thinking about it gave her a headache.
