Chapter 367
Zukku .
The trembling sickness pierced my whole body .
When I turned to the murder intent, there was a woman there .
No, it would be correct to say that she was a woman .
There weren’t any legs where she’s standing, and her whole body was translucent .
Something like black aroma is leaking here and there .
Above all, the eyes that glimpse from the long messed up bangs are muddy .
“Uh, uh, uhhhaaa…”
The moaning that leaked out of the mouth sounded like a beast .
Is it a ghost or a vengeful spirit?
It felt that way .
“Are you Erythronium?” (Ryouta)
“Uhhuu…?”
The woman ghost moaned painfully .
Crackle—– her neck turns 360 degrees sideways like a screw .
After making a movement that was never possible with the human body, her cloudy eyes caught me .
Did she recognize me? ――I thought suddenly .

“Aahhh”ah”ah”ah””! !! “
With a grunt that sounded like she squeezed out from the back of her throat, she opened her hands openly and jumped at me .
“Kuh!” (Ryouta)
I kicked the ground, rolling on the floor with that momentum and taking a distance .
“Wait, listen to me!” (Ryouta)
“Uhhhhhhaaaaaa!!”
The ghost screamed further and jumped at me as if I was the trigger of her anger .
Without any choice, I counterattacked by grabbing both her hands .
“-!”
Before she could think, I twisted her arm to tip her balance .
However, I could not counterattack any further .
Erythronium will be killed .
A dungeon that continues to cast evil, excluding people to the extreme .
And, a ghost who is in the spirit room .
Sadness, anger .
These emotions appeared as a theme in this dungeon, and it was not difficult to understand .

So I couldn’t fight back .
I didn’t want to do anything more to her .
She jumps the third time .
Again, she grabbed me tightly .
Then, she bit my shoulder .
“Kuu!” (Ryouta)
The moment her sharp fangs sank into the flesh of my shoulder, I had an unprecedented pain piercing through the whole body .
The pain was so agonizing so much that it’s like punching a hole into your skin, then using your fingers to twirl around the insides of the hole .
It was a pain that ignored all status and defenses, resulting only “pain” directly .
Somehow, it may be a one-sided assumption because of such a situation .
This felt like her pain .
Therefore .
“It’s okay now” (Ryouta)
I was bitten by a beast which whisked my flesh, I put my hand around her back and touched it gently .
“I’m not an enemy, I’ll never do terrible things to you… Absolutely not . ” (Ryouta)
The words didn’t get to her .
She still shakes her head to bite my skin off .

“…”
But has the action been transmitted?
I continued to be calm, her movement gradually slowed down, then eventually stopped and her mouth gradually separated from me .
After the bite, we look at each other at a close distance where you can kiss .
The light of reason returned to her eyes .
“Really……?” (Erythronium)
“Yeah, I’ll keep my word . ” (Ryouta)
“Really… You will do that?” (Erythronium)
It’s like a child .
A child who is hurt and retreated in the corner of the room .
I looked straight into her, and without any hesitation, I said once more .
“I will absolutely not do anything bad to you . ” (Ryouta)
Looked at her .
No, I stared at her .
With a somewhat poker face .
Lost for words, she just stared at me .
Eventually, it flowed .
It looked like a waterfall streaming down from both her eyes .
Broken .
Such a word came to mind .
In a different meaning from the last time, my whole body was fuming .
It’s better if she lets it out .
What did she do to deserve this?
I thought .
“Protect me?” (Erythronium)
“Yes, I’ll protect you . ” (Ryouta)
“Pro- … . tect?” (Erythronium)
She repeats the same words .
While crying with no expression, the ghostly body becomes thinner .
Gradually, gradually .
It became thinner—— and she disappeared .
Then, when she disappeared, there was an egg that was not there before .
A large egg, about the size of a toilet paper, that is placed on the palm of my hand .
Picking it up and holding it with both hands .
“I will protect you no matter what . ” (Ryouta)
I muttered in an unmanned spirit room as if to swear .
