【Short Story】Real and Unreal -Remake

In the thick of the forest,  there is a large grassland zone, and ”it” loomed there.

It is something like a rocket, and two silver tapes are wrapped on it.

A rope is hanging from the body, and the edge of it is lighting the spark.

Combined with it being midnight, the existence is markedly strange.

「...Uu.. H..here..?」

Klare, who woke up on "it", mumbled.

Creak!

「ー!!??」

Then, she found herself tied up and wrapped to something.

「Wh….what !!??」

As soon as Klare started struggling, she noticed there was another one here.

「Ummmmmm…...！」

A woman with black hair is wrapped with tapes just like Krare. She is putting her strength into tapes, watching something. Klare found the fire coming in her line of sight.

「H,hey! What the hell is it!!??」

Klare was dying to talk to her.  The woman, who looked perfectly confused, turned her face. Klare thought she had met her before, but she wasn't sure.

「I...I don’t know!!」

Shaking the body, The woman shouted. The spark is approaching. There’s no time to consider.

「Ummm..!!」「Damn! Ggggh!!」

The sounds they made, and the voices they made, disappeared into the dark.

ーThere were two men watching them with binoculars.

One is in a boiler suit, and the other is in an expensive blue suit. He looks very intelligent.

「I built that just because you gave me a huge amount of money, but you have an interesting taste.」

Stroking his sparse bread, the man in a boiler suit asked the man in a low voice.

「Ha, it happened more than 10 years ago.  When I was a weak and foolish high school student, they tore my pride.

In front of people, I was jilted by them. Well,  it was only their killing time.

They cannot remember it, but  I had been denied by everyone due to it. I felt like I was in hell then.

...The resentment will grow at compound interest rates. I can’t stand even the fact that they live in the earth and success at some extent. Even after I got enormous wealth and power.

Now, the past will end. They will “enjoy” the same fear as I suffered for 10 years. After that, it  may leave them as good as dead.  Look, it will happen in a few seconds.」

The man in the suit said so with an evil smile.

（I see, there is deep darkness behind success. They are almost the same. Huh.）

The man in the boiler suit lowered the binoculars and thought so.
