"Looks like what you said has some truth in it, I never thought about finding out why I became an Evil Spirit." The green-haired man turned his gaze and looked out the window with a doubtful face.
"You just realized it?! What have you been doing for the past 300 years! You are really weird if you don't know your regrets. As an Evil Spirit, those memories are what you remember the most due to unresolved regrets before you died." Elvira was really surprised because the Evil Spirit in front of her looked completely devoid of remorse. He committed no crime and he spent 300 years just living a free life with nothing to do with his remorse.
"When you talk about regrets, I also wonder why I became an Evil Spirit. Did I forget the consequences of living for 300 years or did I have no regrets from the start? Um... Since you know so much about this, would you like to help me figure it out?" The green-haired man lowered his head and asked Elvira for help.
Elvira was slightly touched when an Evil Spirit suddenly asked her for help in crossing into the afterlife. She had never heard of an Evil Spirit asking humans for direct assistance to be sent to the afterlife.
Little by little her gaze towards the green-haired man began to change. She thinks that not all Evil Spirits in the world have a purpose to commit crimes against humans, because the Evil Spirits in front of her look like ordinary humans without being wrapped in any evil aura.
Feeling this was her chance as a princess to rise from her slump against the Evil Spirit, she immediately took the opportunity and began to observe the man's appearance. 'Hmm, judging from his handsome face, I think he used to be quite popular among women... Then he lived 300 years ago and died as a teenager. Seems like there's only one possibility...'
After observing several things from him's appearance and relating them to her knowledge, she was sure that he died due to murder by an unpopular person who hated him.
"From the references of several books and novels that I read, most teenage boys died in the past because of love problems. Do you remember when you loved someone first?" With the experience she got after finishing dozens of novels, she hoped it would lead the Evil Spirit to find the answer.
"Love problems huh? Hmm, my memory is a little blurry but I'm sure that there used to be a girl figure who was always by my side." The green-haired man stared at Elvira for a moment before closing his eyes to remember the remnants of his memories.
"I knew it was a love affair. Then is there anyone who doesn't like you or wants your relationship with that girl to end?" Elvira was increasingly interested in the love story of a couple who lived 300 years ago, and tried to provoke his memory so that he could remember an important moment that would provide answers.
"No, I don't think that's the kind of relationship I have with that girl. As I recall, I was asked by her parents to protect her, and I was paid. Even though the payment was only for food, but I accepted it because they also provided a place to live for me alone." He shook his head before trying to remember more deeply, however, his expression changed as he tried harder.
She panicked a little when she saw he was in pain while trying to recall the lost memories. Even so she didn't want to bother him because he seemed to be able to handle it.
After hearing his story and seeing his tattoos on his hands, she just remembered that 3 centuries ago was an era when slavery and human trafficking were things that happened everywhere. Romance problems also often arise between slaves and masters, this also triggers several murders committed by people who do not approve of the illicit relationship.
"Hmm, that girl's parents asked you to be a guard huh? If that's true then your relationship with that girl is that of a personal bodyguard... Oh, I see!! Could it be that the relationship between the two of you is a forbidden love story between master and servant?" Elvira's eyes lit up and became more and more interested in what was really going on. She was so enthusiastic that she tried to guess what kind of love story they had.
And she thought he was one of the slaves bought by the girl's family. Little by little she began to understand the problems the spirit was experiencing in front of her, but that was still conjecture and needed some acknowledgment from him again.
"I don't know, the memories are too vague. If you think like that, I think there's a relation between me and that girl... I should have if that girl was always by my side I should have remembered her... but what..." Feeling curious about the relationship his with the girl in his memory, he began to remember it harder and harder. But the more he wanted to remember it, the more pain he felt.
"Don't force yourself to remember everything, you just have to remember little by little. It must be living that long has corroded your memory." Even though she didn't want to pay more attention, but when she saw he was in pain, she subconsciously felt compassion for him.
