Ash-Colored Skies, Distorted Love

Senior! It's me, me! Your beloved, Baek Ye-rin. ..Well, I'm writing this because I'm too embarrassed to say it to your face. ..Um, a sort of will? Phew, I guess that's what it is. Senior, do you remember the day we first met? It's still vivid to me. Me, gritting my teeth to beat you, the top student of the previous class, and you, who warmly embraced me... It was truly sweet.

Honestly, you liked it too, didn't you? Having a cute junior like me like you! Hehe! But you never once gave in... You really are a stone Buddha. ..Yes, that's right. I wanted this daily life to continue, forever... But who knew the disaster of the Great War between Justice and Evil would strike so suddenly?

The masters we trusted were pushed back by the Demonic Cult's onslaught, and great sects crumbled into remnants of the past in an instant... Eventually, it came to the point where they had to borrow the hands of rising stars like us. The 'Demonic Cult Subjugation Force'—that's the alliance of rising stars the Orthodox Factions prepared as a last resort. It was obvious that you, the best student in our academy, would be chosen.

..But I hated it. You getting hurt, you dying. There's no hope for this Murim anyway; even those seemingly steadfast masters couldn't stop the Heavenly Demonic Cult. So what do they expect the rising stars to do... That's why I came up with a little trick. I decided to be conscripted into the Subjugation Force in your place.

It was easier than I thought. Even in this situation, the academy didn't want to lose you, how foolish.. Ah! Time's already up. It's time for me to go. Don't be upset that I didn't say goodbye! ..And don't cry too much when you hear the news that I've died.. Lastly, just one last thing.. I'll say one word.

I love you.
