Secret Kiss With Knight
Ep 1
Slowly, I place My hand over the ruggedly heaving chest.
Tina: ... it's so warm, here... It has turned red all over.
Tina: is it really okay for someone with a wife to feel this way?
Man1: ... Do you tease and then feign innocence?
Man1: or are you trying to remind me of my betrayal?
His face, slightly contorted with excitement, seemed provocatively alluring.
Rubbing the usually well-covered skin, it grows redder by the moment...
Tina: Please..., more gently..., we might get caught like this...
Man1: Are you afraid of getting caught?
Man1: Really? You don't seem scared to me. Because you-
Before he can finish, he softly sweeps his thumb over my lips.
Man1: you're smiling, as if enjoying every moment.
our laughter softly echoes around us.
Ah- a wave of redness spreads within me. Like ink bleeding across water-
Inside the abandoned factory, the sound of two footsteps, once chasing the other echoes.
I aim my Target with the precision of a hunter.
Tina: Fay! Just give up, will you? Aren't you reaching your limit?
Man2: Panting... Hah... Hah...!
Tina: I have no time for this pointless game of tag. So-
I Stop to reload my gun. And then.
Tina: ... Ending this here would make things messy.
I was sure there was that thing in the escape route leading outside.
Another shot rings out, and as expected she runs outside.
Tina: To bad for you, tha't a dead end.
At the industrial water facility-----
Tina: How pity. you've run all this way only to find nothing but murky water.
Tina: I have no grudge against you. just hand over the goods, and you can avoid pain.
Man2: ... Isn't... shame...?
Man2: ... Isn't it shameful? living off such dirty work?
Tina: what do you know about me? about my life?
Tina: Have you lived Desperately enough to stand tall before yourself?
Tina: Shut up, I have no interest to talk with someone who will die soon.
Tina: Your body will sink beneath the industrial water of this abandoned factory.
Man2: you... will be cursed....
As I move closer to Finish her off, something unexpected happens.
Man2: ... just wait... I won't die alone....!
Suddenly, I can feel a sharp pain in my side and the target has pulled me into a tight embrace,
AND THROW OUR BODY INTO THE INDUSTRIAL WATER.
Tina: Choke...! You're... insane...!
And just like that, we're submerged int the dark waters.
Tina: Ugh...! I.. must escape....! The water... I can't....!
The fear of being devoured by the murky depths overshadow the pain from my wounded side.
The Memories of a childhood accident in water flash back.
The terror of being swallowed by a monster.
No matter how hard I tried to escape, the black water keeps pulling me in.
Ep 2
Man3: what does it feel like to die?
Man3: as a killer, you must have prepared for such an end.
Man3: you've lived your life dirty, have you regretted you muddy existence?
Tina: (Ugh...! Who... who are you? Where is this voice coming from...?!)
Man3: choose, Do you wish to die here and become nothing, or----
Man 3: make a deal with me for a chance to live.
Man 3: Ah, maybe I should say INQUIRY, that will be easier for you to understand, right?
Tina: (inquiry...? What inquiry...?)
Man 3: protect a man fated to die.
Man 3: If you successfully protect this man.
Man 3: your reward will be a new life and a new beginning.
Man 3: will you accept my inquiry?
what the heck is this? is this a hallucination before death?
Man 3: If you are willing to,take my hand.
Then, a white hand reaches down through the murky surface.
Tina: (I can't hold any longer... I'm about to drown.....)
Tina: (Hallucination or not... I can't... I don't want to die like this!!)
Man 3" seems like you've made up your mind. Are on the same page now?
Man 3: someone awaits you outside the water.
Man 3: Follow them to meet me, I will be waiting.
As soon as those words end, my body is being pulled quickly.
Man 3: Tina. How does it feel, having lived as a strong one?
Man 3: From now on, you must live a life of protection in the body of the weak.
Man 3: In a world completely different from the one you knew.
Tina: (A completely different world....? What does that mean?!)
But before I can ponder further, a strong jolt courses through my body.
Blinded by the intense shock, my consciousness starts to fade.
As my eyes flutter shut, I seem to hear a solf chuckle...
Tina: (..... what's that sound?)
Tina: (It sounds like.... a man voice....)
Man 3: Just a bit deeper... Hah....
Tina: (.... what's this? Something's inside me •••)
Tina: (Ah... It feels strange... like a burning sensation inside...)
Tina: (what in the world is this....?)
Startled, I suddenly open my eyes.
The first thing I see is the blue sky, and I can smell the fresh scent of grass.
Tina: ...where am I!?... Was there a forest nearby the abandoned factory?
Man 3: Excuse me.... are you alright...?
I quickly get up, shocked by the sudden male voice.
It's strange not to have noticed his presence, even If I was unconscious.
Man 3: Are you.... okay...?
.... Where do you come from? And why is your face covered?
As I stare, the man hastily straightens his clothes.
.... straightens.... clothes? .... come to think of it....
wait, what's going on? Why am I almost naked?
Tina: .. what have you done to me?
Man 3: What? Me? I... just...I.....
Man 3: I JUST PUT MINE INSIDE.... A LITTLE•••.
Without any other word, I decided to act.
Out of habit, I reach for my weapon. But,
Tina: Damn... Did I lose it in the water?
The man takes my kick squarely in the chest and rolls on the ground.
Man 3: Why are you suddenly attacking me?!?!?!
Tina: ....such drama doesn't suit you.
Tina: You will soon realize who you've messed with.
Man 3: I, I just helped you because you fainted....! so...!
As I get up to confornt the man.
Tina: what is this?!!? what happened with my face?!
In a panic, I lean over to see my reflection in the lake.
To check on the reflection on the water.
Even on a second glance, the reflection doesn't change.
Tina: How can this be... How can..
I keep touching my face in disbelief.
My hair has turned the color of water, flowing down my shoulders.
My hands are enough, my clothes tattered...
Tina: Oh my god... My body...
Man 3: Are you... Are you okay...?
I ignore the man's words.
My reflection shows the body of the women I was chasing.
Ep 3
The large sword whistled past me with a heavy sound, nearly grazing my forehead.
One more step and I would have been seriously injured.
Tina
(What's the meaning of this...?)
Lancelot
Such rudeness is beyond tolerable.
Lancelot
Your majesty! Why do you allow this arrogant woman's behavior?!
Lancelot
Disrespecting our sovereign is an insult to all of us knights.
Lancelot
I can no longer stand this!
Galahad
... Sir, Lancelot. He's Majesty has allowed it.
Lancelot
Shut your mouth, Galahad. Who are you to.
Lancelot, grinding his teeth in anger, then turn his gaze back to me.
Lancelot
What... what did you say? Is this how you address the kingdom's greatest knight?
Lancelot
... that's enough impudence...
Lancelot
You majesty! I cannot accept her as the lady of the lake!
Lancelot
Someone who can't even hell a small poison on her own, how can she have any power?
Lancelot
She might be a black mage is disguise!
Arthur
Lancelot. Foreteller has never been wrong.
everyone's gaze shifted to the Foreteller at Arthur's words.
Foreteller
She is undoubtedly the lady of the lake.
Tina
... Wait a moment. Don't proceed with this conversation without me.
Tina
I came here for a reason.
Tina
whatever your situation, I have important matters to attend...
Lancelot
You have a purpose for entering the castle? This gets more suspicious.
Tina
(This guy... I am already dizzy, and he's making it worse.)
Foreteller
Tina, can you please explain your PURPOSE?
His question almost sounded like an offer to help me
I remained silent. I don't like this overall's situation.
Then the Foreteller started to whisper to me.
Foreteller
Tina...if you don't speak, I can't help you...
Tina
... I don't know if you'll believe me, but just a while ago, I was in a completely different place.
Tina
I fell into industrial water, and when I woke up, I was at an unfamiliar lake.
Tina
I... need to save a certain man to return to where I was.
Arthur
Let's wait until the Oracle tomorrow.
Arthur
If you came here through water, there might be a connection with the Oracle transmitted through it.
Tina
(Transmitted through water?)
Tina
(could it be that the person I need to meet isn't the king but the one in the Oracle?)
Lancelot
The let's proceed with her receiving the Oracle. Her true nature will be revealed then.
Tina
Fine. If that's what you want.
Lancelot
... What an arrogant one...
seems like the discussion is over.
Tina
(What's this? I fell mush Dizzier than before....)
Tina
Ah... ugh... I'm burning...
Foreteller
Tina, your MANA power is.....
That's when I felt something within me twisting and bursting out!
Lancelot
Black pattern?! The mark of black mages!
Arthur
That can't be... I had purified it...
Foreteller
No! The mana power... is imstable!
Lancelot
Pure magic should not manifest as black!!
Tina
(ugh...! What's this...! My vision is warping...!)
Lancelot
Your Majesty! she's wierd! We must eliminate her now!
Lancelot
ISN'T THAT WHY WE'RE GATHERED HERE?
Tina
(What...? they're here to kill me...?)
Arthur
We must not jump into conclusions.
Arthur
Merlin! If it's a matter of unstable Mana power, you have a solution, right?
Foreteller
... I will try.
Foreteller
Tina... get yourself...! When your power surges, you must not lose your composure.
Tina
Get away... You're... trying to kill me...!
Foreteller
We are here to help!
Foreteller
Swallow this. you can receive my power through it...!
Tina
(Shallow the Mana crystal)
Arthur attempt to place man crystal in my mouth, and I insti nctively bite his finger.
Arthur
....Its okay. I will hold it until the crystal Mana disperses.
Soon, a pain like a seed sprouting spread through my body.
Accompanied by metal-like taste is Arthur's blood in my mouth.
Galahad
Foreteller, why is her Mana power running wild?
Foreteller
.... I'm not sure. it feels like Tina is resisting her own man power, or rather,
Foreteller
She seems to be denying her own existence and unable to blend into this world.
Foreteller
Currently, my Mana crystal is suppressing her powers to stabilize them.
Arthur
....Tina.How are you feeling now?
Tina
...... well, I'd feel better if all theses dark-looking men left.
Foreteller
I will stay with tina.
Arthur
I will take theses dark-looking men out with me.
Arthur
But that guy over there is the most delicate among us, so please let him be with you.
