Koo Kyungman gulped down all of the mysterious liquid. Koo Hui-seo did not stop there; when his brother opened his mouth once again, Hui-seo inserted his fingers inside to see if he was hiding anything in his mouth.

“Cough, Cough…!”

The sight of his fingers touching the root of his tongue made me feel nauseous. Koo Hui-seo, as expected, simply overpowered the other. After checking and muzzling the captive, he stood up without hesitation.

“Mmmmph!!”

When Koo Hui-seo completely turned away from him, we could see that the ‘something’ that Koo Kyungman drank was working.

He began to twist and turn with an incomparable intensity than before; Koo Hui-seo’s black strands held him from all directions, but, nevertheless, he shook hard enough for the bed to rattle violently.

“Knnngrhh!!” A single gruesome scream pierced through the air. Simultaneously, Koo Kyungman’s stomach suddenly swelled up.

It was like a balloon laying dormant had inflated with air all at once. After Koo Kyungman looked at his bloated stomach with bloodshot/wide-eyed eyes, his head leaned back, eyes upturned, as if he were going to faint.

However, Koo Hui-seo manipulated the black strands and hit his brother hard on the cheeks, preventing him from losing consciousness.

“Cough……” In the end, Koo Kyungman opened his eyes with a terribly pained expression. Meanwhile, the sound of several ribs breaking filled the room.

I saw him shaking his limbs, bloody bubbles frothing around his mouth, and lowered my gaze.

Even though I was doing no more than being an observer, this was my limit. I started to feel nauseous.

“Kyungman-ie will stay in this state for 10 months.”

“……”

“Nothing will be done to alleviate the pain, nor will he be reprieved in unconsciousness.”

To be in such clearly observable pain for 10 months without sleep…It’s torture enough not to be allowed to sleep for 10 months; it would be truly horrible to add that to Koo Kyungman’s current condition.

However, Chairwoman Shin nodded and smiled at Koo Hui-seo’s words. She looked absolutely satisfied. “Yes, that’s how it should be. It’s far too merciful to end him right now.”

“Of course, after pregnancy, we should allow a certain amount of slumber to stabilize the fetus.”

“Nngh….” Koo Kyungman, forced to consciousness, clearly heard his brother’s words. He stared at his swollen stomach with a pale face and screamed through his muzzle. “Nnngh! Mmmmpph!!”

I couldn’t even look in the direction of the desperate screams for fear of making eye contact with the man.

However, Chairwoman Shin was different.

Perhaps she wasn’t satisfied with watching from afar. She passed her son and approached the bed where Koo Kyungman was tied. Koo Kyungman, in turn, stopped screaming and shrank back, wary of the Witch.

The cat in her arms seemed to boost his fear. She lowered the cat from her embrace and personally struck at the captive.

Koo Kyungman’s face flung to the side as the sound of the slap rang out into the air. She laughed despicably at how he was unable to resist her. “You still dare look me in the eyes at this moment…!”

“……”

“You’ve been talking behind my back, calling me a toothless tiger, haven’t you? What do you think now? Am I still a powerless elder locked in a back room?” ¹ Chairwoman Shin raised her hand again, about to deliver another strike.

At that moment, Koo Hui-seo approached her from behind.

I had definitely thought he approached her to stop her. To be honest, Koo Kyungman was in such a state that I wouldn’t have been surprised if he died from another unfortunate blow, and Chairwoman Shin seemed very excited.

I could feel how much she detested the other just from the gleam of her eyes; Koo Hui-seo needed to calm down his mother for the sake of their future plans.

“….!”

However, what happened afterwards far exceeded my imagination. After approaching his Mother, Koo Hui-seo wrapped black strands around her neck at almost invisible speeds.

“Cough!”

He then grabbed the strands at both ends and twisted it. Chairwoman Shin dropped to the ground before she could even shriek–her neck had been broken.

“W-What….!” I gasped.

“Lee-kyung-ah, get back.”

As soon as I shouted in dismay, Seo Dawon and Jung Garam popped in front of me, as if to protect me.

The familiar, like me, seemed to grasp the situation belatedly. It remained rigid until it saw Koo Hui-seo hugging Chairwoman Shin’s collapsing body, rushing at him.

However, Koo Hui-seo, still holding his mother’s corpse, easily avoided the familiar by retreating a few steps.

[Ah—-.] The familiar, knowing that it would soon breathe its last, stared at its mistress before collapsing as well.

The familiar, after falling to the floor, hardened as if it were affected by rigor mortis. Soon enough, the body, starting with the tip of its tail, began to crumble into gray ashes.

Koo Hui-seo peacefully laid Chairwoman Shin’s body on the floor after the familiar disappeared. He then stood up, looking at me with a casual expression as if he had done nothing particularly significant. “After talking with Lee-kyung-ssi yesterday, I had a lot of thoughts. How I should live in the future and so on… And, I gained a bit of courage.” Koo Hui-seo gave an embarrassed smile.

He seemed to be saying that I gave him the push to do what he did today. Of course, I couldn’t understand his thought process–I felt like I was going crazy.

Just when did I tell him to kill his own family?! I only said that his family seemed to be plagued with issues and that he shouldn’t feel beholden to familial ties.

Of course, what Chairwoman Shin did to her son was horrifying abuse, but that was between the two of them. I had no intention of inserting myself into their problem.

However, Koo Hui-seo’s ambiguous words made me reflect back on our conversation. Even Seo Dawon and Jung Garam stared back at me with a queer look…Eventually, I had no choice but to plead my innocence. “What are you saying! I never told you to kill Chairwoman Shin!”

“Ah, of course you never said that. It’s just…Lee-kyung-ssi inspired me greatly.”

Inspiration? Did I send him some subliminal message to kill his family without even realizing it?

However, Koo Hui-seo continued to talk, paying no attention to my flabbergasted expression. “If it wasn’t for Lee-kyung-ssi, it would have taken a much longer time for me to work up the courage for this. Or I may not have done it at all.”

“……”

“Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.” Koo Hui-seo said, with a bright smile that I had never seen before on his face.

That expression…it’s exactly like if a crazy guy became even crazier, and his brain was replaced with flowerbeds. That person would make an expression just like that.

According to his words, he’s been meaning to kill her for a long time and wasn’t able to pull the trigger until our earlier conversation? I stepped back–I had a hunch that further conversation would not result in meaningful communication.

However, Koo Hui-seo did not seem to care about my wariness and continued in a cheerful tone, “Also, I thought that this was the best timing for mother to neatly disappear.”

“……Why do you say that?”

“I’m going to announce that Kyungman-ie killed mother and is currently on the run. I’m sure all the guild executives were aware of the invisible hostilities between the two…Wouldn’t it be more convincing for him to run away after committing murder than to disappear for no reason?” He insisted that he didn’t ‘kill on impulse,’ and stared at me, eagerly awaiting my reaction.

I, on the other hand, stood in place with arms crossed, showing little of what I was truly feeling externally.

TL : Eldritch Horror strikes again. I sympathize with MC tbh; It’s too much work to deal with far-gone yanderes.
