The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

65 – A Momentary Rest (8)

When did Kayla start to change?

I thought she was different from Erina.

But maybe my expectations were too high?

Or maybe I hadn’t known her true nature until now.

“Kayla.”

She didn’t mean to scare her.

I thought she spoke carefully so as not to be surprised.

Meanwhile, Kayla couldn’t keep her hands still with her fidgety gestures.

The anxious eyes were trembling. She clearly knew she had made a mistake.

But she still had an unfair heart.

He got angry, but he didn’t seem to think about taking care of it at all.

I am also embarrassed.

She had never been so emotional.

“I’m sorry. I couldn’t contain my anger without realizing it.”

I don’t know how many times this apology has already been heard.

I just went out alone for half a day.

Who could have predicted that things would grow this way?

“Ha, but there is one thing I want to tell you.”

Kayla held my hand as if she still had something to say.

As she placed her hands on the back of mine, she felt warm.

Normally, I would have accepted her touch without hesitation.

However, unlike before, I felt lingering and obsessive.

I tried to remove her hand, but her stubborn strength wouldn’t let go.

I had no choice but to stay still.

“I always put my lord first. I never followed him around with impure intentions.”

“Yes. I know.”

“It’s definitely not the same reason as Erina-sama. I…”

She shook her head, unable to finish her sentence.

I could see what his intention was.

She herself is different from Erina.

She was asking me to find out.

But does she even know that she is similar to Erina?

What I want from Kayla is remorse, not reasons or excuses for her tailing.

“I never doubted you.”

“Yes. I have never doubted my lord.”

There was an impatience on his face.

There was even nervousness on her hardened face.

He desperately held her hand as if asking her to believe in herself.

Even though I never doubted Kayla’s words, she was in a state of anxiety.

“However, whenever the master disappears from my sight, I cannot hide my uneasiness.”

“…”

“You may think I’m strange. But I never want to lose my lord.”

It was difficult to say that an infinitely heavy heart was simply loyalty.

“If you need money, I’ll get it any way I can. I’ll be happy to do even simple chores. But…”

Kayla pulled her hand and held her into her own arms.

A soft body touched her thick robe.

But she didn’t mind.

Rather, my heart became heavy, and only frustrating feelings remained.

“I hope you will always be by my lord’s side.”

I thought of her only as a companion for her on her future journey.

But Kayla had a different idea.

I wanted a deeper and more complex relationship than now.

“I’ll be honest. I’m worried that you’ll change like Erina.”

“I… !”

Kayla tried to raise her voice, but she quickly covered her mouth.

She didn’t answer for a while as she kept her mouth shut.

The person she hates the most and finds it difficult is Erina.

It will be difficult for her to accept that such a person and she are the same.

The problem is that it cannot be refuted.

That fact made her even more confused.

“I am different from Erina-sama…”

She was not confident in her words.

Unlike before, her calm and confident appearance has disappeared.

“Kayla.”

“Yes.”

“If someone hurts me, what would I want to do with that person?”

It was a bit of an odd question.

But she answered right away as if she had been waiting.

“I will deal with it at all costs.”

“Even if I’m fine?”

She pondered for a moment on the ensuing question, then spoke again with conviction.

“If my lord has any hesitation about doing evil, I will act instead.”

She expected a different reaction in her heart, but it didn’t go beyond her expectations.

Am I expecting too much from her?

But if not now, I could have had a conflict with Kayla someday.

In fact, Erina had a history of killing people just because she had a conflict with me.

“I don’t want to be with someone who behaves wayward.”

Why did Erina commit murder because she was hostile towards others?

Because I think it’s all for me.

With just that thought, he has committed numerous evil deeds and is wary of people.

“I-I… “

The grip that was holding my hand loosened up.

As expected, Kayla’s body stiffened.

This is an expected reaction.

Even though I knew it would be like this, I gave Kayla a word.

Please, it was because she didn’t want her to be as selfish as Erina.

“Uh, for whatever reason, I will follow my lord. My heart will never change.”

She nodded silently. She has her own attitude.

But it wasn’t the answer I was hoping for.

Looking at my reaction, she must have noticed that something was wrong, so her eyes began to move busily.

It seemed like he was trying his best to please me somehow.

Unusually, he was talking gibberish.

“I have no intention of abandoning you.”

“I don’t want to leave my lord’s side either… !”

Obviously the same thing. However, the meaning was subtly misaligned.

Suddenly Kayla fell on her knees in front of me.

Then she took off the robe she was wearing.

The white skin was exposed under the black fabric.

It was a situation that others could misunderstand.

The sudden action hurriedly covered her body.

I tried to restrain Kayla, but instead, her hand was caught.

She pulled my hand and brought it to her own belly.

There was an imprint where my hand touched.

The evidence of the contract between me and her was still clear.

“I am different from Erina-sama.”

“… “

“I have already given my life to my lord. If you want, I can give you my all.”

She gritted her teeth as if to drive a wedge into it.

He started persuading me that he was different from Erina.

“Erina-sama, how much can you sacrifice for your lord?”

“I’m not trying to compare you to Erina.”

“That person does not deserve to be by your lord’s side. But I am different.”

She calmly brushed off her hands and lowered her robe.

Now she was more excited than necessary.

But Kayla didn’t stop talking.

“I am confident that I will lay down everything for my lord. You can check it out if you want…?!”

In an instant, lightning struck right in front of her eyes.

A blade flashing white fell from the air.

At the same time, sparks flew around.

If Kayla hadn’t pushed me away, she would have been electrocuted by the blade.

Where I was standing was Erina.

She thrust the point of her sword at Kayla, holding her lightning-clad longsword.

“Erina!”

This is the heart of the capital.

Fortunately, there were no people around, so it’s a shame. If there are witnesses, they will be taken away by the guards.

But Erina didn’t look at me. She fixed her gaze solely on Kayla.

And there was an infinitely dark life in his eyes.

“…You mean.”

Her expression was infinitely cold.

His gaze, as sharp as the blade in his hand, was directed at us.

“What did you just say… ?”

I had to hurry and stop the two of them.

But Kayla’s words came out before I could.

“You said you didn’t deserve to be by my lord’s side.”

“Shut up.”

“How can you protect your lord with such a violent appearance? Rather, you might injure your lord…?!

A lightning bolt struck from the sky right away.

But Kyla wasn’t standing still.

A magic circle unfolded in the sky and a protective shield unfolded.

Before the huge thunderbolt struck, they were blocked by the magic circle and scattered.

At the same time, the flames shot up in Kayla’s hands.

Erina also corrected her posture, as if she had no intention of stepping back.

“Do you think you can beat me?”

“You never know until you try.”

The air around them sank at the furious force.

A precarious confrontation ensued as if they would rush at it at any moment.

And I was the only one who could calm them down.

“Erina. Put down the knife quickly!”

They had to be stopped somehow.

But even at my command, Erina did not put down her sword.

Only looking at the front to kill Kayla.

“Kayla. You should stop too.”

“…My lord.”

My voice made Kayla wince for a moment.

However, the magic circle did not disappear.

Both of them did not move even after hearing my words.

I just continued the confrontation while glaring at the opponent.
