I Decided to Kidnap the Male Lead

Chapter 121: Forever and a Day (XIII)

But if she regressed right away, wouldnt this tedious task of getting rid of this village become meaningless?

Once this village is wiped out, it will be possible to regress.

Of course, if she regressed to a week ago after destroying the village with her own hands, this village would be there.

However, since the essence that she completed through repeated regressions would be in a state where it had completely disappeared, the world would not collapse.

No I have to.

All of that was her future and her home.

But she couldnt let go of it, could she?

In the worst case, if the world would continue to collapse even if the village was destroyed She would have no choice but to regress until she found a way.

If that doesnt work

Raisa shook her head nervously and bit her fingernails.

Blood seeped out, but neither she nor the person in front of her cared.

Compared to the sea of blood they would cause with their own hands in the future, that kind of blood wouldnt even come into sight.

Raisa asked the person in front of her.

So what are you going to do?

I will set fires.

What?

If you set fires all over the village and block the exit passages

We will be able to cut off the heads of those who run away.

Yes.

Due to the location of the village, the people definitely have a chance to escape.

Because to begin with, she considered that when designating where to build this village.

Even if it wasnt now, it was a village that would be eliminated if it served its purpose, so it was made easier to deal with.

A remote place with only one way to get to and from the village, surrounded by inaccessible mountains.

Fire.

The idea was to burn the village, but it would be difficult to actually set it on fire.

It was a completely different story for the village to quietly disappear just like how it had been created, and for it to burn and collapse in public knowledge.

Its the only way because time is tight and theres no support.

Raisa didnt like it enough, but she nodded because she couldnt find another way.

When will it be ready?

Two days is enough.

Make it a day.

There were two days left at the end of the week she had requested from the emperor, but Raisa did not want to drag it on for too long.

It was a place she had already decided to get rid of, but now she would have to destroy the crystallization of her efforts with her own hands.

If she looked at it for a long time, not only would she get annoyed, but she wouldnt know what other variables would arise.

I dont mind using anything if necessary. In a day.

At Raisas command, the man bowed deeply.

.

A day to the week proclaimed by Raisa Neir.

Should it be said it was time?

This world had long since been twisted.

It started twisting when Raisa first regressed.

The crack created by the twist only grew bigger as regressions repeated.

Contrary to Ophelia, Richard, and Raisas expectations, who all realized that the world was perishing.

The world, once it started to collapse, could not return to its original form no matter what, like broken glass.

Now all that remained was to be completely broken.

A few minutes before Raisas order to set fire to the entire village and destroy all people was carried out

A secluded village located in a kingdom far away from Raisas village.

What was unusual was that people were spending a normal and boring day in a place where there was only a huge river that encompassed the entire village.

Since the huge river was the center of their lives, they huddled together near the river even if they had nothing to do. Then, one of them blinked.

He rubbed his eyes once and hit the arm of the person next to him. Hard.

Ouch! What is it all of a sudden?

The man hurriedly shouted without even looking back at the man who gave him pain.

Excuse me! That! What the heck!

The one who had been swearing at the man who couldnt properly speak was soon unable to say anything as well. His mouth dropped wide open when what he saw came into view.

With a gasp, he yelled,

What the hell is that! Why is the river turning red!

Understandably, they were not the only ones who were shocked and taken aback.

Oh, my!

Kyaaaagh!

Whats this!

Oh, Mom! Mom!

My God, my God! Oh God!

A clamor rang out. A mix of astonishment and screaming, shouting and bewilderment.

Unbelievably, the river was turning red.

Not just the river surrounding the village, but streams, lakes, seas, and even wells across the continent.

All the water in this world turned blood red.

Some were screaming and running away, others were just staring in awe or shock. All sorts of reactions were mixed together.

The entire continent thought the same thing.

Like Back when the sun disappeared.

This time, water.

Soon, the same sentiment spread among the people in an instant.

Anxiety and fear.

The speechless couple trembled in fear and held each others hands, while the child wrapped his arms around his fathers neck and cried out in fear.

It was something that they hadnt even heard of in myths of legends.

And it wasnt the first, but the second time.

Everyone was at a loss, but no one offered a solution or offered reassurance.

They had never imagined anything like this, let alone experienced it.

Among the frozen humans, someone poked out.

Father!

An old man had his hand stretched out towards the red river, and the man who appeared to be his son stood up and urgently called him.

But the old man did not stop. He said grimly,

Shouldnt we see what it is? At this rate, we cant even keep our body and soul together for tomorrow

The old man couldnt even finish his words.

Kulreng, kulreng.

Bubbles swelled up in the river red like blood, and soon the fishes overturned and started to float.

The people who saw the bizarre sight took a step back without even realizing it.

Unlike the color, it didnt smell like blood, but the smell of death was covering the whole continent so thick that the tip of their nose was pungent.

And at Raisas village, located on the outskirts of the empire

There is only one day left.

Ophelia rubbed her pale cheeks and dim eyes.

She knew what the villagers were going to do, but would Raisa Neir act as they expected?

To get rid of an entire village, you have to annihilate its members, so its like a war

Ophelia could not hide her agitation.

That would be the case, just like she told James.

No matter how remote and small a village is, isnt it absurd for a family other than the imperial family to mobilize forces and massacre the people of the empire?

I guess we should talk again

She jumped up, unable to think further on her own, and immediately stormed out of the door.

Ophelia stopped at the stream leading to the river on the outskirts of town, which was within walking distance of her house, and realized that the sight she had seen through the window was not an illusion.

The river was dyed red like blood.

The sixth.

The words that escaped from her parted lips were more like groans.

River of blood. The sixth sign of doom.

Ophelia thought that the interval between signs was getting faster.

It was as if a drop or two of water formed on a cracked dam, and then a small stream of water appeared and burst with a bang.

She expected that as the signs were revealed one by one, the world would be twisted and shaken until it completely collapsed and perished.

Its too fast.

The sixth sign came faster than expected.

In other words, it meant that the time of the end of the world was closer than expected.

Now, really, in a mere blink, the whole world could crumble.

Ophelias shoulders rose as she stretched out her hand toward the bloody stream, stunned.

Kyaaaaaah!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

No!

It was because the sharp screams coming from behind her werent from one or two people.

And it wasnt towards the river that was dyed red.

Blood and fire?

Fires as red as the river, which was now completely blood-stained, were burning all over the village.

Of course its now.

Gritting her teeth, Ophelia immediately started running toward the village.

The world could perish the very next moment, but right now, all she could do was grab the crying necklace-holding girl from that pit of blood and fire.

.

Around the time Ophelia discovered the river slowly turning red

Raisas fire to reduce the village to a heap of ashes was opening its greedy mouth.

The beginning of the catastrophe was insignificant like a river or two in which one or two red drops rose.

Hmm? What is this sound?

When a villager, praying quietly, heard a crackling sound nearby and poked his head toward it without much thought.

Kkunk.

With a sound like scratching glass, his blood smeared on the floor.

The one who wiped off the blood and fat from the sword continued his work.

Swak, swaaaak.

How many times did the flash that hurt his eyes bloom and disappear.

Before long, red flames rose from the dry straw bales.

It wasnt just one place.

Fires began to soar simultaneously in various parts of the village.

And those who found the fire shouted at the top of their voices.

Fi fire! Its fire!
