The Extra Saved the Terminally Ill Princess and Run Away

chapter 3



3 – Bean meets Pin

You see when you open your eyes.

A space where you can neither see nor feel anything.

experienced once,

The process of my soul being slowly injected into the character ‘Pin’.

“…thank god.”

At least that bastard writer didn’t fool me with lies.

It was at that moment when I let out a sigh of relief.

– thud thud thud,

… ? Where are the footsteps from?

For questions caused by a phenomenon that has never been experienced before,

I turned my head towards the sound.

Then, the form of a visible person.

… he. It came towards me with a firm, very detached gait.

The mustache and beard are neatly trimmed,

A man overflowing with a sense of intimidation of different sizes, overwhelming above all in his sharp eyes.

The man stood in front of me carrying on his back a large, old, still sharp greatsword that must have been with him for many years.

Then, when I was far away, I couldn’t see it, and I saw a difference of about a head compared to me.

I am also taller than the average Korean male, but this man seemed to be at least 190.

Armor full of medieval fantasy-like scars that stand out when you move your head and check your whole body.

Judging from the numerous scars on the face not covered by the armor,

It was easy to predict that there were countless scars on the body covered by the armor.

Why did this man appear here now?

That question was unnecessary to me now.

… Even so, no matter how short a period of several years is, there is no way I will ever forget my own face.

Although it looked quite old.

“…pin.”

Hearing the voice calling him, the man lowered his head and looked at me.

“You, too, are Finn now.”

“Did you come to ask? This body is yours, so get rid of it quickly?”

I’m sorry, but that doesn’t work.

I have a mission to save her.

… .

But contrary to my expectations, the man just calmly closed his eyes and moved his head left and right only once.

Is it because we used the same body?

With just that simple gesture, I realized what the man had in mind when approaching me.

“Is there anything you want to say?”

me too

* * * *

how?

That was the first question I had.

He must have been buried with other employees after the death of the princess in the original work.

But how can you appear in front of me like this?

… My doubts were answered surprisingly quickly.

Because this was the first line Finn said when he opened his mouth.

“The princess, who sensed her own death… in case, after she died, as the princess’s exclusive attendant, I feared that I would die of responsibility, so she gave me enough money to live on my own and sent me away. .”

… And three days later, the princess passed away.

Finn’s calm tone of voice is very sad and sad… I felt like I was holding back those feelings.

“I was in anguish for a while when I suddenly lost my job and my one and only lord. I lived a life drowning in alcohol, and I often got into fights with drunkards.”

It was painful for the master to die so painfully, but the person called the exclusive servant was alive and well.

Finn bit his lip.

Then, bright red blood flowed from between her chapped lips.

… Obviously he and I were different people,

Still, I could clearly sense his feelings.

Because that’s what I felt too.

“…Is that why you went to the battlefield with a sword?

The life the princess saved, the last mercy and grace she bestowed… that guilt,

Because I couldn’t have repaid it with the cowardly method of suicide.

Finn silently nodded.

And soon, Pin let out a laugh with the sound of suffocation.

“But unfortunately…I jumped into the battlefield wanting to die…I survived really tenaciously. Even if my heart was pierced by an enemy’s sword, even if I was stabbed with a poisonous awl and lost my life.”

Just as the princess said that it is not yet time for you to die, and expelled me from the underworld where you exist first.

Reminiscing about the time he was lost between death and near death, Finn said that with a sad smile.

… .

Life immediately, death immediately, life.

If you want to live, you will die; if you want to die, you will live.

Because I wanted to die somehow.

At least, no one would have defeated him who jumped into the battlefield with the thought that if he died fighting for the peace of his master’s country, the empire, the master would forgive him.

… Humans are basically

Because they fear death and struggle to survive somehow.

Those who shrank in fear of death,

A person who does not hesitate to face death somehow.

Who will win is not an obvious result.

* * * *

“That…it was a time when I couldn’t die like that.”

Suddenly, Finn burst into tears.

The sad tears, like those of a child who has lost his parents, do not match his appearance very well.

“Suddenly, the world…the world turned black, and before I knew it, I was back in the past.”

To that time when the princess was alive.

Feeling that he has returned to the past, Finn moved his mouth to call her, his lord whom he had met again after decades.

… No, I tried to move my mouth.

However, contrary to his will, his lips did not even move.

And soon, in the unknown language that flowed out, Finn realized that he was trapped inside his body.

-Nabalyeon, can you possess me with only 34 characters?

Possession.

Her own body, the unknown being possessed by her, clearly said so.

Being a writer or something, he was possessed by his own past.

“…The course of action after that was unique.”

Act like a prophet who acts and behaves as if he knows everything about the future.

Finn realized through Kim Bin’s actions that his past self should have acted this way.

Kim Bin actually knew her favorite food, hobbies, and even what she did when she was free.

“…but that didn’t last long either.”

Finn recalled the rockfall accident in which his body tried to change the future.

I thought that if it was me over there, if it was me now, I would be able to avoid it.

However, the subject of the body is already unknown… However, the situation was occupied by someone who cared for her as much as he did.

“That’s why I came to you.”

… To you, to you who cherish and love her as much as I do,

To you who are carrying the same pain and guilt as I did… .

to hand over my everything.

Finn, he had already prepared for death for a long time. She decided to entrust herself and her future to Kim Bin.

* * * *

“I watched your last choice. You, choosing the eastern mountain range of the Empire to save the princess, making a choice that might end up in that terrible situation again.”

Finn, I chose the eastern mountains of the Empire, shedding tears of regret, sorrow, and guilt… He said he was watching the whole process to get there.

Finn said to me with a detached expression.

“It doesn’t matter what world this world is,”

“Even if it’s a delusional world created by a penman, it doesn’t matter.”

“…my soul, my experiences, my talents… I’ll give you everything I can give you!!!”

His thunderous cry echoed in this dark space.

Then he puts his chin on my shoulder and pins his hand up.

Just, she… Let the princess live a happy life.

Please don’t let the princess suffer anymore.

Finn continued to weep bitterly as he spoke to me.

“…For me, since I don’t know that this world is the ‘original’, it’s impossible.”

He, Finn, didn’t even seem to care that he was just a character created by someone else.

As if he would gladly accept even that if he could only save the princess and Lily.

“To give up everything, if you do that, you…”

“I’ll probably disappear completely. Even my soul.”

Whoa. He breathed in through trembling lips.

“But even that doesn’t matter. It’s been a long time since I’ve been prepared for death anyway.”

“…No, rather, the sea I wished for! If it wasn’t a dog-like death lying around on the battlefield, but an honorable death that I could dedicate to my lord!!”

… don’t be afraid to accept it

His will, firm and like a mighty mountain.

It flowed through my eyes and flowed into me.

“…Even if you didn’t ask for it, I would have done it anyway.”

At least in terms of wanting to save her, I won’t lose to you.

“It’s more trustworthy than any knight’s eyes I’ve ever seen.”

As if satisfied with this, Pin smiled brightly.

At the same time, his body slowly… It turned into powder of light and began to flow into me.

… It is felt.

The gusts of his nose shattered against my skin.

I hear it.

Even the sound of his heart beating.

see.

How powerful is the person in front of you right now.

… I see

really, really you… You have fought with all your might to die.

That’s why I was able to become so strong.

without speaking,

I could see why he was trying to hand over his power to me.

… It must be to protect her, Lily, from the fate of countless deaths in the future.

With this experience he had accumulated over decades at the risk of his own life, and with the sword talent he possessed.

* * * *

so slowly… Around the time when Finn’s body was no more than his shoulders.

Suddenly, I had such a question.

But if he was a person who was active until he was old enough, there’s no way I wouldn’t know about it.

However, the name ‘Pin’ has never appeared in the work since then… .

‘Did you use a pseudonym?’

That’s why I asked. After that, what name did you use to walk around the battlefield?

“A name… I didn’t give it a specific name. Because there was no need for that.”

Finn raised an eyebrow and told me. As if this was the only thing he could be proud of.

“That’s true, I, Finn, who was once a commoner, became a being called ‘Sword Saint’ by everyone.”

… what now?

Sword Saint?

He fought 300 knights alone and won the victory… that swordsman?

It was only then that Finn noticed that the sword castle was doing nothing different from the description of the sword castle in the work.

“Ah, no, then you’re giving me the swordsman’s talent…!”

My words were not finished. Before he could do that, his body had turned to shimmering powder and scattered.

But, nevertheless, with the expression he showed me at the end,

The message he wanted to convey to me was clearly conveyed.

‘Please don’t worry about the next day. From now on, I will be Finn.’

Like that, with my will to save her who sacrificed for me this time.

Finn’s determination to protect his master, whom he had not been able to protect in the past, this time was added.
