But suddenly, a creepy evil surged around her. Sakaman’s sense of inferiority and anger surged.
“What the hell are you doing?”
Carlos’s angry voice was directed at Roo, not Hayden. The voice he emitted inside trembled with anger.
“You, Rustica, you…!”
If you’re inside the consciousness, you can even read a person’s emotions.
Roo learned one more thing. No, these were emotions that Carlos couldn’t hide and had to show.
Feeling bewildered, surprised, disgusted, and even enraged, Roo was overwhelmed by a jealousy so absurdly intense underneath.
“Disgusting bastard.”
Roo despised him. In fact, the fact that she could access his emotions at this moment sent shivers down her spine.
The presence of Roo, floating around within Carlos, who was nothing more than dust, recognized the overflowing affection she felt when she looked at Hayden.
Fluttering, she felt as if her emotions were exactly the same as Roo’s.
“You, no matter how enchanted you are by that face, how can you…!”
He simply thought it was an infatuation. He casually thought that he would regret and be embarrassed when he woke up from the dream.
People can make mistakes, and the foolish, especially, can be tempted by things that seem okay.
He found it quite unpleasant that the face of that damn guy, Belle, with its splendid complexion, was better than his handsome face, but Carlos thought so.
But what is this? What on earth is this overwhelming and warm, if not hot, love that the presumptuous, incomprehensible being inside him feels?
This was a feeling Carlos had never felt or experienced before.
Just the fact that this feeling was directed at Hayden made Carlos feel so overwhelmed with anger that his head was spinning.
“How dare you…!”
If there was such purity, you should have dedicated it to me! It’s mine! Give it to me! Give it to me! I’ll burst that damn shell, stab the lungs, tear apart the heart, and twist the bones! I’ll crush that face like a woman’s! Roo didn’t have to say it explicitly, but Carlos keenly felt the horrible emotions she was harboring.
Yeah. Carlos hoped that she would at least be scared.
He hoped she would regret and feel embarrassed, begging to eliminate those emotions and give up. He really hoped so. If he couldn’t have it, no one should!
“Crazy bastard.”
But instead of being scared, Roo expressed pure disgust.
Disgusting. Sickening.
Just as Roo felt Carlos’s emotions, he also felt hers.
She didn’t think about it so complexly and specifically. It was because she didn’t want to invest that much affection in him.
No, it was better this way. Carlos corrected his thinking. Since she came into his inside, it would be better to just swallow her up like this. Discard the broken flesh and stay with Carlos.
“Roo.”
At that moment, a clear and distinct voice cut through the space between the two.
Beyond the magical space and the physical distance, it reached beyond consciousness and into consciousness.
The gray eyes laughed while looking at Roo within Carlos.
“You promised not to go far.”
Although he smiled brightly, his gaze seemed as if to devour Roo at the end.
Venturing further could lead to Carlos dissecting her delicately, as if extracting Roo, Roo inside him was observed with unwavering precision, as if to ensure she wouldn’t be missed.
“Come back. This is enough.”
His tone was more polite than usual. Roo knew that this was Hayden’s true appearance.
His slightly awkward and carefree laughter was merely a guise to break down Roo’s guard and approach her easily, making her recall his boyhood days. In reality, he was someone so fearsome and difficult to approach.
After spending countless times with beings other than humans and surviving through uncountable years, could someone be ordinary like an average person?
Before Hayden could urge her again, Roo moved quickly.
Swoosh, and emerald-colored dots were scattered over the source of the enormous power they had been witnessing.
Even before getting close to the emerald color, her power seemed to lose its color and be absorbed completely, but Roo paid no attention. She retraced her steps without looking back.
“Who goes as they please…!”
Carlos flinched. After intruding as he pleased, she just ran away like that. There was no thought of leaving him behind.
He exerted all his strength to grab Roo. But since he didn’t know how to block the entrance she came through, Roo disappeared within him in an instant.
“Welcome back.”
As soon as she opened her eyes, a soft voice was heard beside her. Roo turned her gaze. Ophelia was smiling.
“It seems you didn’t go far. You came back quickly. Luckily.”
Worried that Roo might be surprised or might not distinguish between Carlos’s consciousness and reality, she spoke very calmly and slowly.
“Yes, I was told not to go far….”
Roo nodded with a vacant expression.
“You did well. It’s good not to overdo it. You might end up being stuck with Carlos if you’re not careful.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
