"did you hear that she's going to be executed for commiting treason?"
"it was said that she bewitched the king"
"I heard her name was changed from Golden tongue to forbidden "
Rumors about me commiting treason is spreading like wild fire. They must have thought I bewitched the king because I merely gained his favour. "ugh" I don't know why people never gets tired of making ugly rumors about me."funny peasants" I said to myself as I majestically strolled down the market square, seeing the horror on the eyes of the people as I walk past them.
Not minding them, I was heading towards cosmetic shop to get newest cosmetic products. Atleast, that's the only favour I'll be doing myself to get married before I die. Just then, someone blocked my path.
"who are you?" I said looking at the person irritatingly.
"I am Choi Joon, the son of Choi woo hoo whom you told to commit suicide" He chanted with vengeance written all over his face.
'ahh, I see', Another avenger! but this one came with sword and even at the wrong time.
Mostly , its at the evening time, the relatives of the my victims pay a visit to me to end my life, 'but this one wants my death a opened show to this peasants'
"sooo... you are here to kill me... right?" I said sarcastically, looking puzzled at the annoying thing Infront of me.
"today is going to be your last day" he said calmly as he drew out his sword and pointed it to me.
"uhh!" people watching us gasped, murmuring to each other.
' annoying creatures '
Without moving an inch, I froze all of them temporarily to deal with the fool Infront of me.
" woo, I'm scared" I jokingly said , glaring back at him furiously, observing the way he maintained his expression. Basically judging his clothing, he must be a very good swordman or perhaps an assassin.
' In either way, he has finally met the one that will end him ' I said to myself
I kept observing this guy with a poker expression, contemplating which tragic death will best suit him.
Should he die by hanging?, by drowning? or die by his own sword. That will be a very tragic death especially Infront of crowds that loves spreading fake rumors, then again at my advantage that will halt the rumors of me commiting treason.
"you must be very stupid to think I will die like this" I said in a calm tone staring at the sympathetic thing pointing a sword to my throat while he glared at me furiously. "mmm" I cleared my throat.
"Hear me now.... fall to your knees" I said glaring at him viciously as he slowly knelt down against his will. Still contemplating on which suicide suits his looks , I ordered him to raise his head and to have a closer look to his face.
Right there, I realized I have made a dreadful mistake. He was someone I ought to avoid for the rest of my life, my only weakness and doom, my murderer in my past life. My body started shivering against my own will, my legs became weak that I couldn't stand up straight. I fell down on my knees, crying without even realizing it.
' I'm doomed, this is definitely the end of me'
My heart kept telling me I was doomed as I tried to compose myself.
" have you finally realized your mistake?" he spoke after realizing I remembered who he was.
" you sly fox!" I said ,my heart beating faster than usual, knowing there's no way I could escape my death.
" so, you are the one to talk" he said mocking me as he stood up to dust his knees. I was still on my knees, wondering how he caught me. All my life I never transformed into my original form or acted imprudently that will lure someone like him to me.
" I didn't eat anybody...." I paused to glared at him.
"so what rights do you have to end my life"
" You didn't eat people but you killed them"
" so what, they kill themselves too" I tried defending myself but he kept insisting on me being guilty.
" then.." I barely said as I lowered my head, already lost in hopes.
" then, why can't you let me go...just this once" I said and raised my head looking at him for a reaction.
" I can't let you g.." "I promise I will change, no more killing people" I pleaded with him.
" for the sake of what we had before " I added reaching to his hand.
" I can't pardon you because of our past relationship" he replied and dust my hand off his own.
" you committed an unpardonable crime"he concluded.
' This cold hearted jerk '
I narrowed my eyes realizing he won't hesitate to kill me. I had to make a deal with him, to make him suffer atleast. " fine... I'll let you kill me" I said calmly as I stood up from the floor.
"but you will kill me on one condition" I gradually raised my voice staring at him viciously
" Ae Cha I won't be dealing with yo..."
" I will kill every single human being here" I interrupted
"and only then you will kill me in peace"
"Ae Cha!!!" " and mind you, their blood won't be on my hand" I assured him. Him sighing afterwards gave me an assurance that he would suffer after killing me.
" you will have no choice but to forgive me" I jokingly said after a long silence. " Ae Cha " he calmly called for my attention then drew me closer to him.
"you won't be killing anyone" he spoke softly and dropped his sword.
I narrowed my eyes as he looked at me with a soft glaze without saying a word. unknowing to me, he was diverting my attention. He initially aimed for his dagger he had and just as I predicted, without batching an eye, he stabbed me with it.
I widen my eyes.
" you mischievous heartless thing" I barely spoke out, staring at him indecently while he kept mute., still holding onto me.
" I knew you won't batch an ey..." I said faintly l, like the pain grew as I spoke.
" Don't worry, nobody here will remember your death" he finally spoke with no remorse. Funny enough,this bastard was madly in love with me decades ago.
"just so you know, you owe me your l.." my tongue seized as I started coughing out blood.
' Death is definitely a painful thing '
I stared at him for a while and spat blood on his face, just to make me laugh at him for last time.
" I'll be back..."
