Chapter 215: Chapter 215 \nOnce upon a time, Yu Jitae plucked a flower. \n
It was a bad thing to do.
He tried not to regret it.
It was a poisonous flower; a flower that drove his life down into the gutters. Thus, he decided to break the flower and he did. He had no intention of justifying his acts. Plucking a flower was a bad thing to do and he indeed was a bad human. He simply had to accept the past as it is.
After several seasons and the passing of time, the same flower budded in that same location. Finding that new flower precious all of a sudden was a laughable thing to do.
All he had to do was simple. He merely had to water the flower whenever appropriate and nurture it. There was no need to find it precious, since he wasn’t growing the flower because he liked it.
That must definitely have been the case but…
Living together with the flower,
Seeing butterflies and insects flying to the flower,
Seeing its dews on the morning and it flutter under the night wind,
He discovered himself slowly finding the flower more precious.
In order to grow it well, he had to love the flower. But loving the flower increased the size of his guilt of breaking the flower in the past. No matter how pretty the flower was, he couldn’t stare at it for too long.
While he was feeling confused from all those constraints, the flower spoke to him.
“This feels a lot better now…”
Bom nonchalantly got down from his knees. Yu Jitae, who had been thinking about something different, asked with a dazed voice.
She didn’t reply to his question and simply stretched out audibly, ‘Knnggg…!’ in a good mood.
“Oh right. I think it’s about time to talk about it.” She continued.
“I actually don’t want to do it yet, but I’m done settling my emotions. So can I just practise it once before the actual thing?”
“Come on. Of course, about Yeorum.”
Ah, right. It was indeed about time that they made up.
“Right. Think of me as her and practise.”
Closing her eyes, she breathed out before opening her mouth.
Episode 71: How a Green Dragon breaks
On the rooftop of Dorm 107, Yeorum, who was leaning on the wall smoking, looked to the side. She could see Bom with her cucumber-coloured hair tied in a ponytail.
“Sorry for trying to attack you.”
“Attack? Do you call that just attacking? Weren’t you trying to kill me?”
“Not even gonna say no? You crazy bi*ch.”
“Is ‘sorry’ enough? When I almost died back then? Of course, you would have been dead by me straight after that though.”
“I’m sorry. Really sorry…”
“How do I know you’re actually sorry?”
“Hmm, what should I do for you to feel better?” Bom asked.
Yeorum replied subconsciously.
“Kneel, you fuc*ing b*tch.”\n
In response, Bom obediently lowered her body and kneeled, despite wearing short pants with open knees.
‘You’re actually kneeling…’ murmured Yeorum before walking up to her and putting her foot forward.
Vacantly Bom gazed at her foot before meekly lowering her head. Then, she actually kissed her toes before lifting her face.
“Is that enough?” she then asked.
“Oi, you. Are you actually crazy?”

“Why would you actually do that? Would you kill yourself if I told you to?”
“You should have known something was off about my command, you retard,” said Yeorum.
“I did think it was off.”
“Then what? Do you have no sense of pride?”
“Then why would you do that!”
“It’s not time for me to take care of my pride.”
“Yeorum. I don’t really know what you want. If this isn’t what actually betters your mood, tell me honestly what does. Don’t tell me to do weird things like that.”
In other words, Bom was saying that she was trying to match her own apology to the mindset of the lunatic that is Yeorum. But Yeorum in fact thought that her way of thinking was closer to that of a lunatic more than anything.
“Were you always like that?” Yeorum asked.
“You look like you have a massive screw loose in your head.”
“If you’re going to be like that; the thing you always use. That, Eye of Providence or whatever. Why don’t you use that to see what I want?”
“Would I be doing this if I saw it? You know yourself. I can’t see Providence just because I want to.”
Puff. Puff. Smoke left through Yeorum’s mouth and nose. Suddenly, she remembered something and opened her mouth.
“Ahh, it’s almost done. But I don’t have an ashtray.”
“How do I turn this off?”
Bom blinked her eyes, before opening her mouth and sticking her tongue out.
Yeorum scowled after seeing that.
“You crazy b*tch just don’t learn. Put your tongue back in, you lunatic!”
“This isn’t what you wanted either?”
“Stop telling me to do meaningless things.”
Yu Bom had always been a bit of a strange kid, but these days, she tended to act like a somewhat broken person.
“So what is it in the end?” Yeorum asked.
“What are you. When I cuddled with Yu Jitae, you were jealous right? What happened to your heart.”
“…”\n“You’re not gonna say anything?”
Yeorum frowned in response to those words. She flicked the cigarette off her hand before walking up to Bom, who was still kneeling on the ground.
“Is there a problem with your Origin Fragment?”
“You love Yu Jitae, don’t you, huh?”
Bom blankly gazed up at Yeorum before letting out a smile. Then, she stayed silent for some time before dropping her head low and murmuring softly.
“Yeorum. In the first year after we left for the Amusement, was it fun?”
“What are you suddenly on about?”
“Hmm… Well, I did find it enjoyable bashing people around.”
“Every day was boring and tiresome. I didn’t know what the point of my Amusement was, but after coming here, there was something that I enjoyed for the first time.”
