Chapter 1

“Are you going to kill me?”

“Eh?”

The man with his waist down in front of me looked dumbfounded.

However, he was amazed and looked down again.

Oh, the top of the hair is white. I won’t worry about hair loss later.

“Can you kill me without hurting me?”

I meant what I said. I’m not afraid to die again, but I hope I die without pain.

Because I was brought here without feeling the pain in my last breath.

“Why do you keep saying ‘kill me’? I’m a loyal servant of Selina.”

“Really?”

I clenched my toes to what was said. How can a loyal servant play such a trick in someone’s back?

He’s ignoring my words.

The man in front of me lifted his waist and groaned as if he were anxious about the meaningless prolonged silence.

“Then you’ll lose your tongue if you use the magic mazara later.”

His face turned blue in an instant. A man’s face can lose like that.

****

It was a few days ago since I opened my eyes here.

In the novel called ‘The crown of dawn.’

A third rate novel romance which I had read before because of my brother who loves to read novels. It was messed up in style and flow but i have to read it because of my brother.

My brother is the only reason why I live in my original world.

I was born as an orphan and adopted by a childless couple, but soon the couple had my brother.

Unfortunately, my brother was born sick and my parents blamed me for their misfortunes.

Slapping, cursing and starving.

I let my life be for my brother. I stopped studying and I searched for a job.

In my previous life, I don’t know what I like because I don’t have time for myself.

I used to hate my younger brother. For being naive to regard everything about me as his own.

But he was lying in bed which I was unable for me to hate him. It was really hard for me.

Our relationship was very strange and subtle. It’s hard to say what’s going beyond it, not being willing to dislike each other.

Before my brother turned 20, he died. Maintaining our relationship that is hard to define.

So my usefulness is gone now.

My parents kicked me out from the house. I was driven to the streets and didn’t think about living.

Even if I get older and earn money, all of that was done accordingly for someone’s milestone…

What more I should do now?

I was stuck in a small room and didn’t even go out to work.

Now, everything was troublesome and hard.

I don’t know who I am. I didn’t get tired anymore. The tiredness that comes from numbness made me extremely exhausted.

My brother’s face comes to my mind. A sickly pale face.

Oh, the only face I remember is his face.

If I had so devoted myself to him… Shouldn’t he at least be remembered by me with a peach-colored face? He should have shown me that for a moment.

Oh, it bothers me. That’s enough. It’s not working.

So I threw myself on a top of a dilapidated building that has only been built and worn out.

It doesn’t hurt.

The day I woke up again, I thought so in daze. It really didn’t hurt. There was no strength in the body, but there was no pain.

Is death supposed to be like this?

I opened my eyes.

What does the afterlife look like?

People’s eyes, nose and mouth were seen little by little in the dim sight.

It was strange. It was strangely bright for the world after death.

Oh, is it supposed to be this bright? What is this?

When I opened my eyes completely, the people who were looking down on me made a noticeable fuss. Someone shouted out loud while I was puzzled on what’s going on.

“Lady Selina!”

My eardrums are going out.

I couldn’t even open my mouth, and only my eyes were wide open.

I wanted to talk but my voice didn’t come out well. I’ve been knocked out for days so it seems that my neck was locked.

Thanks to this, I was lying down and couldn’t speak and ask about my situation.

‘Selina’ as they say, fell off her feet while climbing the stairs, and she was unable to open her eyes for the 4 days.

Then ‘Selina’ opened her eyes today which is me.

The young man who went in with tears in his eyes was the older brother. The middle-aged man and the woman are the parents.

Suddenly, a story flashed through my mind. It is me? I am Selina?

My head got dizzy as I organized my thoughts. So… I killed myself then became Selina. So, what about the real Selina?

I don’t know… This is bothersome.

I just laid out on the bed. It was very comfortable. It was then when the food was brought to the bed.

It can be stretched out with a mind. For a few days, I lived with the bells and whistles of the people around me.

Yes, it is. The maids talk a lot. In this way, they will cry from Selina’s birth.

And finally, a few days later I was able to open my mouth. The condition of the throat has returned quite a bit. I still don’t know what kind of  woman she’s like because the voice is very sweet.

After a little lunch, My (Selina’s) mom and dad came into the room to see my condition.

“Selina, how are you today”

“Okay.”

When I spoke for the first time since I came to this world, the eyes of both of them were thrilled.

But soon the light disappeared beyond sight. No, it turned into shock.

Because I didn’t call these people mom and dad.

So I spit it out. The ultimate line of that drama.

“Ahmmm.. Where am I? And who are you?”

My, no, Selina’s parents were dumbfounded that they always had a story to tell.

Name and title, memories of themselves and myself, my brother, etc… Listening meaninglessly to this line-by-side story, I stayed on one thought.

Somehow their stories are familiar.

This is what I felt when I heard the maids talking… Yeah, maybe I read this somewhere….

Yeah. I read it. I read this. This is one of the fascinating third-rate novels.

The Crown of Dawn. And Selina is the time-limited villain in this novel.

That’s how I got to know the world where I am and who I am. Since that day, My (Selina’s) parents have been visiting Selina and others in my room hoping to find my memories as soon as possible.

And come back to this day, the man with pale gold hair, who stands in front of me, whispers his head, saying that he is my loyal servant.

I felt sorry for the man who claims to be the servant, but I knew that there wasn’t even a single word of sincerity in this man’s words.

Even if it is a book that I read roughly, I can remember the rough content of the novel because I read it aloud with my mouth before.

This is definitely not exactly… A… What…

Selina brought the beggar who was being trampled on the street. Then he was enormous enough to call him a servant and used him as a slave.

A quick notice… What is this? He was the most eager to stick with crabs and sassy to her and shout behind Selina.

After telling the magic story, the man, whose face turned blue, closed his mouth tightly with his shaking eyes.

The man’s face was saying ‘How the hell did you know?’ without making a sound.

“Stop, go out. I’m going to sleep.”

Ahh…What is it? He walked out of the room with his head down and an anxious look.

I looked around the empty room. I let out all the maids who would take care of me and lay down on the bed.

Oh, this is a great bed. The blanket is really nice. I want to lie on this bed for the rest of my life.

In the novel, Selina White, whom I came to possess, was a greedy woman.

Her mother hates his other brother, Aaron White, so she can do whatever she wants.

However, she is not as capable as her brother, so she stayed up all night studying this and that.

In short, she’s not talented in trying so much as she wants, and she’s not very successful

As a result, the jealousy and contempt for her brother, who is good at everything differently from herself, and the people around her grew more and more day by day, and eventually she began to commit evil deeds.

And the evil deed extends to her brother and to the heroine, Princess Ariel, who loved each other…

Although she succeeds in separating the two, the boyfriend and supporting actors who are likable to her and regretful to Selina, join forces to trap Selina in prison.

In the end, she fell ill and died in the prison at the age of 23 without any friends, family, or anything.

That’s too bad.

I closed my eyes and turned to find a comfortable posture.

Oh, this posture is the best.

I have absolutely no intention to become greedy.

If I die, I die. If I live, I live. I didn’t have any desire anyway. No, I can’t.

This strange situation was fascinating, but that’s all. Once, the sense of numbness does not come back easily.

I jumped on my feet. With my will.

I don’t know why God holds my life tightly that I was forced into the life of someone, but it is all useless.

“Oh, how bother.”

Yeah. I still find life annoying.

I’ve been sleeping all day and I’ve been dreaming.

My younger brother appeared in a dream. A younger brother who I can’t hate even though  I really hate him. The child died while maintaining a strange and subtle relationship. The child who died that day was slowly played before my eyes.

I didn’t even shed a tear that day.

Now my usefulness is over. All I thought was that.

I was looking at the scenes that went by in my daze. Wondering if this is a random past recollection time. After that, the scene changed with Selina.

Sky blue hair, sky blue eyes. The tail of the eyes is slightly raised, but overall, she doesn’t look bad, probably because of her bright hair and eye color. Or maybe it’s because of her pale complexion.

Just before her death, she was gasping alone in an empty, narrow room.

As she crawled to the door, she knocked on the rusty iron door.

A bright light.

‘I’m a little… Someone kinda… help me···. help me! No… please… please… even if anyone is by my side… even at the moment when I die… please… not like this… alone… so miserable…’

She cried out, breathing in, and vomiting dark red blood.

Then she paused for a moment. Anger, excitement, and fear are everywhere.

But soon she shouted again in fits.

‘Oh, no! No···! please······. I… I…… Ah… Ah…!! No!! I’m sorry…It’s my fault!! No···. Oh, no!!! please… please!’

After a big scream and then a small murmur, Selina fell on the floor and never moved again.

No, she couldn’t.
