Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

180. Confession (Complete story)

#180. Confession

The girl who went to the academy was weak.

He was unable to socialize with people and was just wandering around. He was not very bright and was weak.

Even if I was passionate about something, I couldn’t achieve much, and my efforts were bound to go to waste.

Repeated life, repeated results.

The girl always went about her daily routine with a bright expression, but she was secretly despairing at the unchanging results.

But her life changed at some point. With someone’s help, she was inspired and was able to be reborn. It was an experience she would never forget.

‘I… can’t do without my brother.’

Cynthia needed Han Sung-jin.

I can no longer imagine life without him.

Immense power, infinite lifespan possessed by the transcendent, powers of the outside world that even the transcendent revere. Even if it means giving it all up.

Cynthia wanted to be by Han Sung-jin’s side.

That is why she broke and broke and broke her identity millions, tens of millions of times. In order to return to his side. It was a difficult time filled with pain and patience, but Cynthia persevered in the end and succeeded in completely destroying her identity.

The fragile girl gained the power of an alien that even the transcendent ones feared, and then returned to being an ordinary human again.

Maybe I’m weaker than when I was in the academy, but I’m still happy to be by his side.

“Brother, I’m back!”

“… Welcome.”

Han Sung-jin hugged Cynthia tightly. Cynthia grabbed his arm and pushed him away slightly, facing him. She looked at his face and stared into his eyes. Then she parted her lips. Her delicate voice flowed out.

“Me and….”

The frail girl who attended the academy had become an adult who had been through a lot. Now, she had no trace of the delicate girl she had been when she first met him.

She slowly opened her mouth again.

One letter. One letter. One word at a time. She spoke her wish in front of him. Hoping that her wish would become his wish, Cynthia spoke her wish to Han Sung-jin.

“Please marry me.”

Why did she suddenly feel embarrassed at the moment she had been wishing for? Cynthia’s face, as she spoke, had turned bright red like a ripe apple. Nevertheless, she suppressed her shame and opened her mouth to finish her speech.

“I will make you happy!”

***

After hearing Cynthia’s confession, I stood still for a while and stared blankly at her.

marriage.

I couldn’t take my eyes off her because of the resonance of those words. In that moment, countless imaginations flashed through my mind. The countless experiences I would have with her if I married her, came to mind like a comet in a split second and then disappeared.

What should I say?

The moment I had that thought, I felt my cheeks turn red.

“Are you embarrassed? Is that why you can’t answer? Hehe.”

Cynthia was looking at me with a mischievous smile.

“…Your face doesn’t seem normal either.”

“Ah, ah… It’s, it’s because it’s hot. It’s, it’s a bit hot! It feels like summer is coming.”

“It’s still early spring.”

“… It can be hot even in early spring.”

“Yeah, it can be hot even in early spring.”

I chuckled and hugged Cynthia.

“That’s right. So the reason your face is like this… isn’t because you’re embarrassed.”

“You didn’t say you did it because you were embarrassed?”

“Again…!”

“Okay, okay.”

I comforted Cynthia by stroking her head as she buried her head in my arms.

“A little more. Please stroke me a little more. Hehehe.”

As I stopped, Cynthia grabbed my hand and placed it on her head again.

“great job.”

“… That’s right. To be honest, it was really hard. So… I deserve to be compensated.”

Even though she was older, Cynthia was still a child.

But originally, people are creatures who want to throw tantrums when they are around someone they like.

Cynthia pulled away from my arms and looked at me with a serious expression.

“So what’s the answer? Of course, accept? No, there’s no other answer than accept.”

Cynthia threatened that she had no other choice but to accept.

“The answer is… … .”

I opened my mouth and looked at Cynthia.

***

“Rejection?”

Cynthia walked over with a gloomy expression and sat down next to Han Seong-jin on the bench. The two of them went outside and took a leisurely walk in the family garden, then sat on the bench and looked out at the surrounding scenery.

“Strictly speaking, it’s not a rejection. It’s a hold.”

“That’s it. Let’s wait a little longer… .”

To conclude, Han Sung-jin rejected Cynthia’s confession. To be exact, it was not a ‘rejection’ but a ‘holding’.

“Marriage is good, but I thought it would be good to try dating. Dating after marriage is different from dating before marriage, right?”

“You’re not trying to meet another woman, are you?”

Cynthia was complaining for no reason and saying things she didn’t mean. Han Sungjin looked at Cynthia and moved his hand.

“Hey, what should I do with this mouth?”

Han Sung-jin smiled as he grabbed Cynthia’s cheek with both hands. He said he would start dating, but he planned to propose to Cynthia within a few months at the earliest… within a year at the latest. He was happy to receive a confession, but he wanted to confess himself.

“Ah, don’t do that-”

When I let go of her hand, I could see that Cynthia’s cheek was slightly flushed. It wasn’t because she was embarrassed or ashamed, it was just because her skin was flushed from pain.

Cynthia glared at Han Sungjin, caressing her cheek. Cynthia, who was about to say something, stretched out her legs on the long bench and laid down with her head against Han Sungjin’s thigh. When she looked up, she saw Han Sungjin’s face looking down at her.

He stared at Cynthia for a while without saying anything, then looked straight ahead and said.

“I mean… I want to live with you and experience many things together. ‘Love’ is something that I can only experience now. And I thought that I wanted my first love interest to be Sia, not someone who remains ‘blank.’”

“… Well, if that’s the case, then there’s nothing I can do! I have no choice but to endure it.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

“… … What.”

Han Sung-jin stared blankly at Cynthia and then asked her a question.

“Isn’t that a waste?”

Although there was no subject, Cynthia knew what Han Sung-jin’s question meant.

“Strength?”

“huh.”

“If you ask whether it’s a waste or not… of course it’s a waste. It’s the power I gained.”

“okay?”

“Why? Didn’t you think I’d say it wasn’t a waste?”

Cynthia asked Han Sung-jin with a mischievous expression for no reason.

“well.”

“Well, still… The reason I wanted to gain strength in the first place was to be by my brother’s side. It would be too much to ask for more.”

“…To be by my side?”

“To become a person worthy of my brother. That’s why I wanted to become strong.”

“…sincerity?”

“sincerity.”

Cynthia closed her eyes and raised her hand. Han Sung-jin held Cynthia’s hand and continued his story.

“I’ve been wishing this day would come. It’s finally here.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Is there anything you want to do?”

“What do you want to do? There are so many… .”

“If you had to choose just one?”

“Well… of course…”

Whisper, whisper. Cynthia whispered something into Han Seong-jin’s ear.

“… … Yes.”

Then, his expression instantly turned red. Cynthia’s face also turned slightly red as she spoke, but she tried her best to remain calm and confidently lay back down with her head against Han Sungjin’s lap.

“you….”

Han Sung-jin tried to grab Cynthia’s ball, but Cynthia moved her head around to avoid his touch.

“Why? You don’t like me, oppa?”

“… It’s not that I don’t like it.”

“Then it’s okay.”

“So… is there anything else you want to do?”

“Well, what should I do first?”

“Do you want to go to an amusement park?”

“We went there together once before.”

“Can you be satisfied with just one time?”

“No. You have to go there several times!”

“Then it’s decided. Where should we go for our first date?… to the amusement park.”

“We’ll go to the amusement park, go to the movies, eat together, and things like that. We’ll do whatever we want.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

Han Sung-jin smiled as he stroked Cynthia. He was thinking of spending some leisurely time in the warm sunlight.

“Hehehehe-”

Cynthia closed her eyes and sniffed, the sound she made when she was feeling good. She spent a happy time leaning on her lover’s arms, smelling the scent of spring flowers.

I hope this time lasts forever.
