The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me

Chapter 264: A Flower That Came To The Sunset

A Flower That Came To The Sunset

E-Excuse me

Who are you?

A girl approached the ruins that were now controlled by the guards after the incident at the heros inauguration ceremony.

This area is off-limits. You cant enter without permission

P-Please, let me in

But the girl with messy hair and a disheveled appearance was met with suspicion by the guards.

I-Im also a concerned party

The girl was none other than Roswyn.

But the guards blocking her way did not recognize her.

This Could it be?

Even so, the guards recognized the Hero Partys certification she pulled out.

Swoosh

E-Excuse me!

Taking advantage of the guards slightly relaxed demeanor, Roswyn slipped into the ruins.

Let her be. If we interfere with a member of the Hero Party, well only make trouble for ourselves.

But still

Perhaps she lost a lover. Lets turn a blind eye for a few hours.

Hmm

The guards who had been talking amongst themselves noted her pitiful appearance and decided to let her be and resumed their guard positions.

Maybe Maybe its not too late yet

Having easily entered the ruins, Roswyn sniffled with a red nose and looked around.

I might still be able to save him

Despite the slim chance of survival for someone buried in the rubble for so long, she clung to the keyword missing in action.

I-Ill save you Hero

As she got closer to the debris, her hope grew little by little.

Just wait a little longer

Roswyn started to feel a faint glimmer of life as she started to pull out detection scrolls, excavation scrolls, and emergency potions from her guild.

Im going to

However, that glimmer faded the moment she looked at the detection scroll.

Even with the best scroll that she brought, there was no sign of life detected.

Ugh, uh

Deep down, she knew it was hopeless.

But her defense mechanisms and avoidance tendencies, which had always raised her pride, had led her to this point.

But delaying the inevitable conclusion wouldnt change the outcome.

I need m-much better scrolls

Roswyn knew this, but still, she began tearing the scrolls she held, sobbing as she knelt down in the middle of the debris.

The Hero cant die I-I never even got to thank you Y-You cant die

The Hero, who had been the reason for her life and kept her alive until now, died while only receiving hatred from the world and his own helper.

And she was there when it happened.

She had been of no help and even delivered healing potions to his enemy that inadvertently led to Freys death.

As she was about to presume such terrible and frightening facts, she desperately tried to come up with another answer.

You What are you doing here?

Eek!?

Someone appeared next to her as she continued to tear up scrolls and mutter to herself.

Who are you? How did you get here?

I-I

The person was none other than the chief of the Imperial Investigators.

Excuse me, but could you please verify your identity No, never mind. I finally get to go home after a few days, and I dont want any more headaches.

The days-long investigation finally concluded, and he, relieved to be finishing up and heading home, looked at the uninvited guest who suddenly appeared at his workplace with an annoyed expression.

U-Um, by any chance about Frey. Is there any information on Frey?

However, Roswyn recognized him as one of the regular patrons of her guild and asked him a question.

Frey, you say?

He felt a tingling sensation as Roswyn asked.

Well, uh that is

In fact, he had recently taken a bribe from Isolet and announced a fabricated fact about Freys death.

I think you should look at this!

However, as befitting a symbol of the empires corruption, he quickly put on an unfazed expression, pulled out a newspaper, and handed it to Roswyn.

[Breaking News] Frey Raon Starlight Confirmed Dead.

A shock to find his body in the ruins currently being transported to the hospital

The first-ever Duke to be stripped of his nobility, becoming a nobody

..

The newspaper contained more than Roswyn could handle.

Well, will you take your leave until I get off work?

.

Then, Ill leave you for now.

Even as the Chief Investigator scratched his head and left her side, Roswyns gaze remained fixed quietly on the newspaper.

[Breaking News] Freys Body Missing.

Transport team, while moving the body to the hospital, claims to have been attacked by angry citizens.

Cause of death & legitimacy of report currently unknown

Investigator in charge claims the verification was flawless

Hic.

Thus, having read the entirety of the information on the second page of the newspaper, Roswyn buried her head in the rubble.

Huuuu uuu

Roswyn began to tremble and sob.

I-Im sorry sorry Frey

Clenching the debris, she muttered in a trembling voice.

You were the Hero I was supposed to help you You kept me alive until now I should have saved you

Her expensive clothes, which she had been boasting among servants and adoring men, were in tatters.

Her pale, delicate hands, never having done rough work, were cut and wounded by sharp fragments.

Her beautiful and sensuous face, which enchanted many men, was now a mess of tears and dirt.

Uuuuu

These circumstances only made Roswyn crumble further.

The expensive clothes and the luxuries she wore every day were all because of Freys extensive support.

Her smooth hands, which had never done rough work, were because Frey had been doing most of the dirty work behind the scenes.

She had just thought her investigative skills were excellent.

And her face she had been tending to every day for the hero was actually made by Frey.

No matter what she did, her face was becoming gaunt, and it wasnt until a year after Frey was visiting her that she started to gain some weight on her face.

The one who truly helped me was you

Finally facing the inevitable conclusion, Roswyn felt the reality of these facts.

The one I should have served was none other than you

But it was too late for regrets.

Woooo

Lulus words, You shouldve done better, echoed in her head.

.

.

.

.

.

I-I couldnt help it

After spending a while crying and burying her face in the debris, she was eventually chased out when it was time for the investigator to get off work.

What could I have done differently?

Wrapped in the cold winter wind and trembling, Roswyn muttered with a pale expression as she neared her guild.

I-I couldnt have known

She staggered, like she was about to collapse, and murmured with her fist clenched tightly.

I-if I had known would I have helped?

But at that moment, an unclear memory flashed through her mind.

W-what is this?

She felt as if she had said something like this before.

She caught a glimmer of a recent dream where she saw herself become crippled.

Hah, hah

Emerging from the wave of unstable memories, something dawned on her.

Now what do I do?

The grief and regret of mistreating and leaving her benefactor and idol to die was followed by immense fear.

She was terrified just thinking about what would happen to her and to the world.

How would the world, who still believes that Frey was a villain, react if they found out that he was the hero? What sort of panic would come?

What kind of end would it bring to the world that had abandoned the Hero?

And without him, how would she, who could not live without him how would she meet her end?

N-No, I dont want this

She remembered being sick in bed as a child and hating it intensely.

Coughing and spitting up blood-streaked phlegm, unable to keep down food or medicine that was good for her body, feeling dizzy for a long time, and waking up to find the date had changed.

She also remembered her parents faces as they stared at her with eyes that grew colder and colder with each passing day until they stopped speaking to her altogether.

I dont want to die uh?

Roswyn approached the guilds entrance with a terrified look on her face and soon began staggering again.

Thud!

Uhhh

Eventually, she fell to the ground at the entrance.

Why am I so dizzy?

She had been feeling dizzy and unsteady for hours, maybe days, and now, looking puzzled, she suddenly realized something.

I-I did not receive flowers and already?

She trembled and murmured to herself.

Am I dying?

Sadly, her words were true.

It had been well over a month since she last received a flower from Frey.

Even though she had been healthy for over a decade, it had been enough time for her fragile body to start succumbing to death once again.

Cough, cough

Terrified and did not know what to do, Roswyn covered her mouth and started coughing.

Blood, blood?

Her hand was covered in blood.

Uh, uhhh..

She had coughed up blood for the first time in almost ten years.

I-I dont want to die!

She used all her strength to get up, opened the entrance door, and rushed into the guild.

M-Miss Roswyn!?

When did you leave?

M-Move!

Then, she ran to her room with all her might.

I-I must touch the flower

As her room came into view, she blinked her eyes full of tears and murmured.

I dont want to die like this..

Her face was smeared with the terror of facing death.

The fear of death that had slowly overtaken her when she was diagnosed with a terminal illness and whenever she was on the brink of dying as a child came back to haunt her more than anything else.

Ah

But when she entered her room, she suddenly lost her words.

.

Her room was filled entirely with flowers given by Ruby.

Though she couldnt identify it at the moment, it was clear that the girl was an enemy of the Hero.

Flutter

Even those flowers had all withered away.

Thump!

In such a situation, her legs gave way again and she collapsed to the floor, then she soon mumbled in tears.

S-Someone please help me..

But, of course, there was no one to help her.

P-Please save me

There was no one to save her either.

Ugh

Realizing this painfully, she fell to the ground and began to tremble as the pain began to take over her body.

Ah

It was then that she truly understood how important Frey had been to her.

Cough, cough..

But it seemed to be too late.

Creak

Miss Roswyn.

Just then, someone opened the door to her room.

Frey?

As she recalled Frey, who used to visit her with flowers and a smile, she called out his name and slowly reached out her hand.

A parcel for Miss Roswyn.

..Ah?

But it wasnt Frey who arrived, it was a delivery man.

Ill be going now.

After handing her a small box, the delivery man looked at her sickly appearance with a look of disgust before disappearing.

..

She flinched at a gaze she never thought she would receive again and then quietly lowered her eyes.

Whats this?

There was no information about the sender.

The recipient was only marked as Roswyn Solar Sunset, and the date the box was packed was written on it.

Year Month Day

The date on the box was from about a year ago.

Rustle, rustle

After staring at the box for a while, she opened it with an apathetic attitude, clearly having lost all hope.

.Huh?

Her eyes widened in surprise.

This is.

Inside the mysterious box was a red flower and a yellow flower.

Buzz

And at that moment.
