I was weak.

It was originally on the side of being exploited in the underground, so it must be obvious.

In a world of weak and forceful eating, I was at the lowest level.

Even though I was young, I could never win among kids my age.

Even with food, it was taken away by adults, at the same age, by someone.

But no matter how much they took from me, I couldn't give up.

Because I have Elche, because I definitely had a girlfriend to protect.

I took back even one shard and gave it to Elche.

It was dirty and gave me all the unsavory food.

Still, Elche was such a beautiful girl that she didn't think she lived underground.

To keep her smile from happening, I was dying to get some food.

Nina was the one I met in that.

We got along in the same way as I did.

We named each other, and I became Elena.

Pfft, Nina was wrong about my gender, so she became a girly name, didn't she?

Then we started acting together.

But I didn't tell Nina about Elche.

I still didn't trust you enough to talk about my only treasure then.

I did something bad to Nina.

At a time I thought it was time to say...... that incident happened.

Elche was caught.

There was no elche in the usual place and I immediately realized I had been grabbed.

Because that's almost certainly what it means to be missing in this underground area.

And then I... I don't remember how I looked.

But since then, I've stopped killing people.

What I remember clearly is that he stood up to the residence of those who grabbed the Elche while his body turned bright red with someone's blood.

Looks like I killed the guys who grabbed him, but there was no Elche there.

Looks like I already sold it to some nobleman.

That's so cute, soon, and it would have sold for a high price.

I remember thinking about it pissed me off and waving down a knife I was holding on a corpse I couldn't even speak to anymore.

He immediately turned to his nobility, but the power of the guard was different from that of a man who was just as grasping.

I was easily defeated and captured.

Leaving Elche behind and getting killed...... I thought so.

The nobleman kept me alive to use as an experimental bench.

The experiment didn't go well at all, and you couldn't have tried me.

And... happy or unhappy, I was the best person on the experimental bench.

"Ha ha! Excellent! I didn't expect you to endure this far! Best picked up ever!!

In the midst of my suffering at the bottom of hell, it is in my ear that a man of nobility screams like that in an excited way.

I wonder how many hours I've tasted that hell.

My heart breaks and I'm already dying... No, when I started wanting to die, the man said.

"The best experimental benches don't break down here. Right...... as long as you're alive, let's not lay a hand on that girl. What do you say? You'd have wanted to live, wouldn't you?

"-!!

I forgot.

In the pain of hell, I had forgotten.

Yes, I'm here to help Elche.

"Huh... that's, uh... really, I guess...?

"Oh, sure. If only you were alive."

"Gu... right, absolutely... absolutely, I will survive...! To Elche, don't get your hands on me......!

I endured desperately.

I can't even tolerate fainting, torture in the name of experimentation.

The noble man's experiment was to make the most powerful soldier.

I don't even know what colour it is. I take medication or they give me injections that obviously suck......

My mental pain was amazing just because something came into my body that I didn't even know I was good at.

And it worked quickly and I literally threw up blood reflexes due to physical rejection, etc.

The chills didn't stop during the experiment and I don't remember sleeping well.

How many times did you want to die?

And every time, I thought I'd be dead.

I don't remember how many days I kept being turned into an experimental bench.

Exactly, the noble man thought I was the limit, and once the experiment was stopped as a break.

"Ha, ha... Elche is safe, I wonder what..."

"Oh, I didn't scratch one. If you can't believe it, you should check it out."

Exit the underground laboratory and head to the room the man said.

Worn down body, but clothes wear beautiful things prepared by the man.

When you meet Elche, don't make me worry.

Walk down the hallway trying to drag a heavy body, and….

"Come on......!

The moment I opened the door, I saw Elche's face staring at me worried.

"Ah......!

I hugged Elche so hard that she ran over to me.

Tears that didn't come out at all while I was savoring hell, come out overflowing.

"Good for you...! I'm sorry I got caught...!

"Yeah, I'm fine... I'm so glad Elche is safe...!

We cry to each other and talk whimpering.

I hadn't seen Elche for a few days after he was caught.

I had never been so far apart, so I had a strong hug to make sure it existed.

"Come on, where are you...? It's frightening......!

I guess Elche was suddenly caught and frightened by being put through to a good room for nothing.

"It's all right, Elche... I'll be sure to protect you...!

When you die, you can't protect Elche.

So I will never, ever die.

- Whatever torture I was subjected to, I decided not to die.
