When Theodore paused for a moment at his sudden reaction.
Tenebris creaked like a broken marionette and grabbed Theodore’s blade.
“Ernst…!”
Yvonne exclaimed.
She struggled to run to him at once, but the black energy wouldn’t let her go.
“Oh, no. Not like this, ha, I can’t disappear like this.…!”
Tenebris shouted urgently and tried to raise all his strength.
However, the two arms holding the golden sword blade moved faster than that.
After a while,
Puk!
An elongated sword made of a group of golden lights penetrated Tenebris’ heart.
“Argh! Aaaaargh!”
The cries of Tenebris followed.
Yvonne and Theodore could tell.
The man who stabbed himself in the heart…… That’s Ernst, not Tenebris.
“No, no, no, no, no…….”
Tenebris’ black hair turned white.
Stumbling with a sword stuck in his chest, he slumped to the floor and collapsed, bending his knees.
Red blood was flowing over the chest where the sword was inserted instead of black energy.
At some point, Yvonne, released from the black energy that had bound her, quickly ran to him.
“Ernst…!”
“Don’t come!”
The shouting voice belonged to Ernst.
He lifted his head slowly.
“Yvonne, I……”
Tears spread over the red-colored eyes.
Hueuk.
Ernst cried with the consistently tearful figure in her memory.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Yvonne.….”
Yvonne choked up when he cried sadly, saying he was sorry.
“What are you sorry about?”
Yvonne’s voice, asking that, was terribly broken.
“I, I…….”
Ernst continued with a white face like a man who realized the most frightening truth in the world.
“Your family died because of me. And because of me, people…… The devil…”
The pale, discolored lips were stained with red blood.
“Why is that because of you!”
Yvonne cut him off and burst into a rage.
She was angry.
Even though it wasn’t his fault, she was angry at the appearance of the friend crying and saying that it was all his fault.
Yvonne cried in anger.
That elongated sword of light penetrating Ernst’s body looked so painful.
As he continued the conversation with the sword stuck in his heart, Yvonne realized once again that he was really something other than a human.
She resented the empress Margarate who made Ernst like this.
“Let’s take it out and stop the bleeding first, Ernst. You’re bleeding too much…….”
Yvonne persuaded Ernst in a shivering voice.
The wound was already so deep that she didn’t know if he could live like that.
Nevertheless, she hated that Ernst looked so sick.
“No, I can’t.”
But Ernst shook his head stubbornly.
“Ernst!”
“I, I, as it is…… It’s going to disappear like this. With me.”
“Come on, Ernst, treat it first, as Yves says.”
Theodore interrupted the conversation between the two with a low swear word.
The sword embedded in Ernst’s chest was made from his magic.
Leobrante’s magic was originally known as the power to defeat the evil and protect the good.
And Ernst’s body, the vessel that contained the ancient darkness…… It would have been broken the moment his magic touched him.
His magic would define him as ‘evil’.
Theodore wanted to regain his strength immediately so that he could no longer harm Ernst’s body, but it didn’t go his way.
Something in Ernst’s heart was tangled in his magic, interfering with the operation of returning the magic back.
“If you finish the treatment safely, I’ll overlook what you’ve done…….”
“Brother Theodore.”
Ernst faced Theodore.
Always hiding for fear of his half-brother, he smiled for the first time, making perfect eye contact with Theodore.
“Well, kill me perfectly, nicely.”
It seemed very difficult to finish a short sentence for him.
“Ev, even now, it hasn’t died yet and is very noisy inside me…….”
Ernst, who stopped talking for a moment, frowned and looked down at his blood-soaked forelimbs.
“I won’t hurt Yvonne, I won’t hurt people…….”
Then, he raised his head again and asked in a more decisive voice, but in a voice full of pleading.
“Don’t threaten the world with my presence…… Please kill me.”
With a pure smile, as if he was about to disappear.
“Don’t say crazy things!”
Theodore was furious.
“Hurry up. I’m barely pressing it.”
But Ernst pleaded earnestly instead of being frightened by the face.
“If you don’t kill me quickly, Yvonne, people, may be in danger.”
“…….”
“You saw it, too. What crazy things have I done, right?”
“I know at least that’s not what you did.”
Theodore ignored the request and responded.
“You, who can’t even kill an ant, couldn’t have done such a thing like a wimp.”
“You hated me!”
Ernst screamed out since Theodore seldom did him a favor.
“You always hated me.You……”
Theodore chewed his lips and stared at Ernst.
Yes, he hated and resented his half-brother since he was very young, but at the same time, he was the only one left of his family in the world.
“Yes, I hate you. I still hate you like crazy.”
Theodore uttered with a voice of coldness.
He was a little annoyed.
He didn’t hate him.
No, he hated him a little bit, but he didn’t want him to die.
It would have been nice if he had the personality to say these kind of kind words to his dying brother.
“Don’t die like this in front of Yves. And if you want to die, die alone in a place we can’t see. You can never die like this.”
At first glance, there was concern for Ernst in the series of harsh words.
Ernst’s eyes were bent sadly when he noticed it.
“That’s right. If you die like this, I’ll blame you for the rest of my life.”
Yvonne responded to Theodore’s words.
Ernst looked back at Yvonne.
Ernst, who had been silent for a moment, smiled dimly and said.
“……it must be.”
“What?”
Seeing him smile when he was in no situation to laugh, Yvonne asked with confused eyes.
“You have to blame me and resent me, Yvonne.”
“I’m not really going to blame you……!”
“And, I’m sorry.”
Ernst’s face was distorted.
“I like you, I’m sorry.”
At the words that followed, Yvonne held her breath.
“I like you as the person that made your family that way and made you unhappy…… So I’m sorry.”
“…….”
“I wasn’t going to like you when we met again, but I’m sorry that I liked you.”
“…….”
“I like you, and you finally found out that I like you. so, so, I , heuk, heueup,…….”
Ernst, who tried to imitate in a calm voice, ended up crying like a child.
“Ugh, heuk, heueup, so, sorry, sorry……. Hick….”
“…….”
Yvonne couldn’t say anything because she was heartbroken.
Ernst.
He saved her from the fire and pushed her into Ferdinand more than a decade ago, and finally failed to keep his promise to come back.
She knew that Ernst was guilty of that.
When she was a little younger, she resented him a little for that.
However, she knew why Ernst couldn’t pick her up, so she thought it was inevitable and erased the immature resentment.
But for Ernst, it must be such a big guilt…….
Yvonne was heartbroken.
So, he hid it.
He, who liked her so much that he cried, hid it in her heart and stayed next to her.
With that heart, he watched her love Theodore and suffered from that love and eventually left.
She knew better than anyone else how heartbreaking it is for a loved one to smile at someone other than oneself.
So her heart hurt even more.
Yvonne looked sadly at Ernst, who was sorry for liking him.
“Fool? Why should you be sorry about that?”
Breaking the mood, Theodore threw a word to Ernst, who was crying.
“If you have normal vision, it would make perfect sense that you like Yves.”
“Yes, Brother…… That’s right. What you said, huh…… That’s right……”
Ernst sniffed his nose, and tried to smile.
Then, he grabbed the blade of the sword stuck in his heart with both hands.
At that moment, Theodore looked panicked and stopped him.
“You, first of all, let go of that hand……!”
“If you and Yvonne can’t kill me…….”
For a while, an ominous black energy was creeping out around his heart, where the sword was embedded.
“I’m sorry, I’m really at my limit.”
Ernst closed his eyes tightly and pulled out the sword from his heart.
“Ernst…!”
He stabbed his heart again with the sword he drew.
Ernst was so quick, so deep, so strong that he seemed to want to extinguish his existence with that sinister existence completely this time.
The new suppressed black energy exploded against the golden sword created by Theodore’s holy power.
“No…!”
Kwoo-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwang-!
Shards of scattered black energy touched the mirror of Tenebris, which was rolling on the floor.
He saw the mirror shaking, and the earth shaking and beginning to vibrate.
Soon, a black fog that bloomed there hit the place they were in, shaking the world and twisting time and space.

My Lover's Personality is a Little Bit Strange
Posted by February 20, 2023
, Released on
Não é justo. Estou chorando. Não é justo que ele tenha que morrer para que os outros sejam felizes. Ernst que foi uma pessoa boa foi traído e abandonado, as pessoas o deixaram de lado e nem notarão sua dor. Ele sofreu tanto quanto a protagonista, mas teve que morrer para que ela fosse feliz ao lado desse idiota do imperador que não é nada agradável como ser humano.
Eu entendo agora aquelas personagens que tentam salvar os personagens secundários por achar injusto a forma que eles morrem. Eu com toda a certeza tentaria salvar Ernst, pois é totalmente injusto que ele morra somente para os personagens principais terem um final feliz. Ele morreu sem ninguém, sem amor. Morreu por uma amizade rasa… Ernst, estou sofrendo por você.
