The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

Chapter 433: Falsehood and Truth

——What mistake did they make?

Even though several days had passed, Jiang Yue still hadn't gotten an answer.

Every time she approached the isolated and sealed bedroom, the nightmare of that day would resurface.

……

"…No! This isn't…true…"

Undefeatable enemies, malicious declarations, and unexpected betrayals.

After being swept up by these unreasonable attacks, all they got in the end was a result without redemption.

—Aarons Moti, dead.

Since the others were either injured in the battle or temporarily in a weak state, the first person to rush into the bedroom from outside was Jiangyue, the only one who was still able to move.

But when she walked into this room that was supposed to be a place for people to sleep peacefully, what she saw was a miserable scene that almost made her lose control and vomit.

The man was not just killed... the enemy also cruelly ripped open his body, almost completely splitting it in half from top to bottom, and even hollowing out the bones and flesh inside.

——Why should he be treated so cruelly?

The princess who arrived later completely broke down after seeing this scene.

"No... maybe... this shouldn't be the case..."

Having lost her beloved, she dropped all her disguises at that moment.

She was no longer strong, and just like an ordinary girl, she knelt on the ground and cried uncontrollably.

…Even though she was choking and almost suffocating, she couldn't stop crying.

The three people who had managed to walk forward with their injured bodies, fell into devastating grief after seeing the tragic scene with their own eyes.

Karin almost fainted on the spot, and Spider Sakura also went into a shutdown state due to the excessive shock.

Although Xia Ye was still trying to maintain her rationality on the surface...but her eyes, which had already turned blood red, were now shedding real tears of blood.

"Don't let... the young master... continue to suffer."

She bit her lips tightly until they bled and activated her "weaving" again, sewing up the empty shell of the body and preserving the man's last dignity.

...Jiangyue couldn’t remember clearly what happened afterwards.

They were in a trance due to grief, and seemed to use the last bit of rationality they had left to bury Aarons' body in front of the memorial standing in the base.

Even if the morning sun has dispelled the dark night, everything that has been lost will never come back.

"Now is not the time to be sad... We still have things to do."

Now that he had no strength left, he finally didn't have to fight anymore...but they couldn't stop there.

……

——What mistake did I make?

Even though those nightmarish memories would tear and tear her soul apart, Jiang Yue kept thinking about what happened that night.

After barely recovering from her excessive grief, she began to think about the "mistake" that Huang Yayin mentioned.

Is it because they made mistakes that this happened?

【I killed Aarons Morty.】

Why would the man who could say such cruel words so casually insist on killing someone who was already powerless to resist and who he didn't even know if he would wake up?

[I, of course, know what I am doing. ]

Why would their own apprentice, the child who had always been upright, calm and low-key, and had no second thoughts about the master he had chosen, betray them at that time?

"…Something is wrong."

In a trance of pain and sadness, Jiangyue returned to her room unknowingly.

But in the mirror next to the wardrobe, she only saw a haggard and ugly face.

——Have I become like this?

If the mirror didn't reflect her true appearance, she wouldn't even know what her current state was.

"……Mirror?"

A strange sense of enlightenment suddenly flashed through my mind, but it disappeared in an instant.

"Is there any detail that I overlooked?"

There must be a reason for these unreasonable and illogical things.

While her thoughts were flowing uncontrollably, Jiang Yue opened the drawer of the bedside table.

Because she often worked in the laboratory, Jiangyue didn't have many personal belongings in her room. And in that drawer, there was only a gray crystal that didn't attract much attention.

But, it was no ordinary ornament.

"……memory."

——That was actually what Xia Ye specifically extracted from Aarons’ mind, his original memory as a person from another world.

After hearing that Aarons' soul came from another world, Jiang Yue immediately developed a strong curiosity about that world. Finally, after much persuasion, Xia Ye extracted a part of Aarons' memory and stored it in this crystal.

A person's memory is really too vast, so even Xia Ye, the demon who once fed on memories, has not fully read Aarons' memories of his previous life.

Most of the time, Jiang Yue only looked at the memories related to the technology from the other world, and did not pay special attention to Aarons' daily life.

But today, she just wanted to see what kind of life that person had lived.

"It's so hard... Life is so uneventful yet so difficult."

Since reading a large amount of memories in one breath would put a burden on her mind, Jiang Yue accelerated the memory playback speed several times to ensure that she would not be overly affected by this nearly real "first-person experience".

——That ordinary and lonely man lives his life seriously every day.

From opening your eyes, to going out to do hard work, to returning home tired, and finally closing your eyes to end this unremarkable day.

No matter how many days passed, the man's life remained almost unchanged.

"…It's still not right."

When she began to feel a little tired, Jiangyue decisively stopped reading her memory.

Even though she wanted to just lie in bed and sleep forever, she still insisted on standing up and returning to the mirror.

I have to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess later, so I'd better take care of this ugly face first.

"Mirror……"

Looking at the haggard and ugly self in the mirror, Jiangyue felt a sense of sadness in her heart again.

——Where should I go from now on?

Should she abandon everything and go for revenge like Karin Xiaye did, or should she numb herself like Klia and stay in this country to fulfill the wish left by that person?

"...Myself in the mirror."

...What is going on?

Why can't I get rid of this growing sense of disharmony in my heart?

Why does an indescribable feeling grow stronger when I look into this mirror?

"What does the person in the mirror really look like?"

It was as if a flash of enlightenment flashed through his mind again - but this time, the sage decisively grasped the trace that could disappear at any time.

She immediately turned around and took out Aarons' memory from the drawer again, letting her spirit sink into it for the second time.

“… Could it be that!”

There was nothing here that she was looking for.

But precisely because that thing did not exist at all, she finally realized how crucial a detail she had overlooked.

And those unreasonable and absurd speculations gradually connected together, piecing together an incredible conclusion.

"Qianyun, it turns out that you have been..."

But if this is really the case, then the only thing I have to do next is -
