As the strongest witch in history, I somehow ended up being feared so much that I’m all alone. So, I figured I’d buy a cute girl slave and ask her for all kinds of things
The witch Etana was pierced through her body, and blood began to flow from her punctured stomach.
“Guh…”
Then, blood started to trickle out of her mouth as well.
“A… ah.”
Tia trembled as she gazed at the scene, muttering in a daze.
“(Ah, it’s been a while since I’ve felt pain. Hmm… this level of injury isn’t a problem, but… the clothes I picked out with Tia are ruined. I can’t really forgive that.)”
Tia, in her current state, couldn’t see through Etana’s inner thoughts.
Seeing Etana, who had been pierced through the abdomen, bleeding from her mouth, and gradually losing body heat, Tia would never have guessed that Etana was still calm and composed on the inside.
“…A, aa.”
Reflected in Tia’s eyes was Etana, collapsed after being pierced in the stomach while shielding her.
“GAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!”
And there stood the monster, roaring triumphantly as if it had just killed the witch Etana.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!?”
Tia fully processed everything—accepting it as reality—and let out an ear-splitting scream.
A scream filled with every possible emotion.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!?”
Tia’s pupils spun wildly, no longer focused on Etana but instead turned toward the monster that had stabbed her.
“I can’t forgive this, I can’t forgive this, I can’t forgive this.”
From those eyes came a voice of anger, a voice of resentment.
“I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you, I can’t forgive you
“……T-, Tia!?”
An aura of thick, dark energy began to leak out from Tia, who was voicing her resentment and consumed with anger.
“What the!?”
What it was—
Etana couldn’t comprehend it.
However, she instinctively grasped that it was not something ordinary.
“…Aa.”
“What are you doing!?”
Almost simultaneously, Tia began to move and Etana finished reining in her runaway magic power.
“…Die.”
“So- what!?”
And at the exact same moment, Tia directed her murderous intent toward the monster, and Etana activated her magic.
