I Became a Villain's Hero [Complete]

Chapter 105: Riem's Paradise (5)

I've never killed anyone before, but now, I think I could do it.

As soon as I saw Song Soo-yeon, struggling against this woman with her top torn, my rationality snapped.

Appearing from behind the villain called Riem, I grabbed her neck and lifted her up.

I wanted to snap it right there, but then Riem wouldn't even know how she had died.

I wanted her to tremble in fear a bit more, to die in more agony.

I slammed her into the ground.

I could see the panic in Riem's eyes.

When I didn't let go of her neck, fear gradually started to fill those eyes.

This would be my first kill. But there was no hesitation.

I pinned down Riem as she gritted her teeth and flailed.

She tried to scratch and tear at my arm that was pressing on her neck.

Using my other hand, I froze both her hands that were touching my forearm.

Looking more panicked, she glanced at her hands and then back at me.

Her eyes began to blur.

Soon, they rolled back.

"...Assh...ole...!"

I watched her end.

I don't know how I'll regret this murder later.

But that, I'll leave to the future me.

I couldn't forgive her now.

"Mister!!"

And then, someone hugged me from the side.

My mind cleared, and my vision widened.

The strength in my grip loosened.

Riem was unconscious, motionless.

"Stop...please stop..."

Shivering, something in my arms spoke.

Her familiar scent wafted over.

The feeling of her bobbed hair and the strength in her arms.

How long had it been?

Feeling her embrace, it felt like my frozen heart was melting.

Song Soo-yeon held me tight and said,

"I...I don't want you to become a murderer because of me...please..."

Her feelings reached me in an instant, and I lost my strength.

I let go of Riem and slumped to the side, as Song Soo-yeon adjusted her posture and hugged me again.

Holding me tightly around the waist, she cried.

"....Sob...sob..."

At the sound of her tears, I quickly detached her from me.

Then, I checked her body.

"Soo-yeon...! Are you hurt anywhere......"

And as I spoke, I stopped myself.

I almost naturally treated her like before.

Song Soo-yeon nodded.

Her top was torn, revealing her bra, but she wiped her tears with her forearm, not caring about that.

"I'm okay...nothing happened..."

"...."

She cautiously reached out her hand towards my mask.
