I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 216
I am not a returner Episode 216:
Snake’s Head (9)
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
thud! thud! thud!
A woman repeatedly apologizing by hitting her forehead so harshly that the floor broke.
Ojin frowned slightly and swallowed dry saliva as he looked down at Cassia, who was trembling with her forehead on the floor.
‘It was said that Queen Serpens is fanatically following the Heavenly Demon.’
then.
Does she really think she is Cheonma?
‘why?’
I don’t know if it was my past life self.
Right now, he had not accumulated the power to be called the grand title of Heavenly Demon, nor had he done anything worthy of it.
According to Isabella, the Heavenly Demon is a transcendent being who gave birth to the Black Star Constellation.
She must have seen that she was on the verge of being overtaken by the Holy Spirit who had inherited part of Black Star’s soul just a moment ago, so why would she make such a ridiculous mistake?
‘no way.’
Oh Jin placed his hand on his left chest.
The black sky sleeping within the thin fabric.
Did he see Black Heaven and mistake himself for a Heavenly Demon?
‘No, that doesn’t make sense.’
If you mistakenly thought you were a Heavenly Demon because of Black Heaven.
This means that the being called ‘Cheonma’ who gave birth to the black star has the same dark heaven as himself.
‘Then… there were two Black Heavens instead of one?’
What happened?
Oh Jin bit his lip gently as he continued to ask unanswered questions.
Could it be that the Black Heaven he possesses is actually only half of it, and the other half belongs to the Heavenly Demon?
Could it be that he was like the incarnation of the Heavenly Demon?
Could it be that the one who destroyed the world in his past life was not himself, but the real Heavenly Demon?
‘no.’
Ojin shook his head.
No matter what speculation was made, at this stage it was just a wild guess without any basis.
‘Don’t think about it.’
Rather, in this case, if you make unfounded inferences, you end up believing the most ‘plausible’ inference as if it were the truth.
I have seen many cases in my life where reasoning without even proper logic suddenly turns into a certainty, and then one becomes trapped within it and cannot think of other possibilities.
‘That’s not what’s important right now.’
Ojin’s gaze turned to Cassia, who was lying flat on her stomach with her head bowed.
She was constantly banging her head on the floor while Ojin was deep in thought.
‘Anyway, you’re thinking that I’m the Heavenly Demon.’
A chuckle flowed from Oh Jin’s mouth.
I remembered the first time I met Vega.
“Lift your head up.”
He looked down coldly at the Queen of Serpents, who was lying flat on the floor and bowing her head, and spoke in a blunt voice.
“Yes, Heavenly Demon.”
Cassia, who had been hitting her forehead on the ground like hitting a nail with a hammer, raised her head.
Even though he hit his head so roughly, there wasn’t even the slightest scratch on his pure white forehead.
“Ah, I’m the Heavenly Demon…”
Cassia, who made eye contact with Ojin, trembled.
The emotions contained in the emerald eyes were neither affection nor loyalty.
A faith so fanatical that its end is unknown.
okay.
She was looking up at herself with eyes full of awe, as if she was looking at ‘God’.
“How did you find me?”
“The first traces I found were on the dockside.”
Dockside.
A short exclamation flowed from Ojin’s mouth.
‘Living Armor.’
Did the energy of the Black Heaven flow out in the process of killing the magical beast she created?
“I wasn’t sure at first. But now I know.”
Cassia knelt on the floor and crawled towards Ojin.
“You are the Heavenly Demon that I have been desperately searching for.”
With a bright smile on his lips, he kissed the back of Oh Jin’s shoes.
Ojin swallowed dry saliva as he felt the soft touch beyond his shoes.
Cold sweat running down my spine.
‘Holy crap.’
Although the situation itself was the same as during Vega.
The level of difficulty was a little different.
‘I think he’s a little out of his mind.’
I’ve always heard that she’s a crazy bitch, but I never thought it would be this bad.
Anyway, the situation was too awkward and uncomfortable to just stay like this.
Ohjin looked down at Cassia, who was kissing the back of her shoe, and spoke in a cold voice.
“Where are you kissing me so carelessly without my order?”
“Oh, I’m sorry!”
Cassia suddenly lifted her head and took a kneeling position.
She bit her nails with an extremely anxious expression.
He looks like an administrative soldier who accidentally shredded military secret documents into a shredder.
‘Did you treat me too rudely?’
Ojin swallowed dryly as he looked at Cassia, who was showing signs of anxiety that were not surprising at any time.
Only now I follow him, calling him Heavenly Demon, Heavenly Demon.
Cassia herself probably knows better than ever that she is several times weaker than she actually is.
‘Something has to be done.’
Oh Jin opened his mouth as if disarming a bomb that might explode at any moment.
“Get up.”
“Yes yes!”
Cassia suddenly got up from her seat.
Compared to her slender body, her height was not that small.
Ojin slowly extended his hand towards Cassia.
“Ugh!”
Did you think he was going to slap me in the face? Cassia closed her eyes tightly.
Oh Jin brushed off the dust from her forehead with his hands.
“…ah.”
“Still.”
Ohjin brushed off the dust from her forehead and even dusted off her knees.
“Ah… My wife, Heavenly Demon, took care of the body of this lowly servant…”
Cassia trembled with an expression of emotion.
She immediately got down on her knees and hit her forehead again! I hit it on the ground.
“Seo Seong-eun is devastated!”
“….”
no.
I just robbed him, what is he doing?
“…Wake up.”
“yes!”
Cassia suddenly stood up and looked at us with sparkling emerald eyes.
Eyes full of anticipation.
Oh Jin continued speaking without shaking off the dust this time.
“You haven’t forgotten what our purpose is, right?”
“Ah, of course, Heavenly Demon.”
Please?
I don’t know.
“Tell me.”
“To swallow up all the stars arrogantly floating in the night sky and turn them into a black sky. “That is… the Heavenly Demon’s grand plan.”
I see.
This is my first time knowing this.
‘No, it’s not the first time I’ve heard of it.’
When I first heard this, I wondered what kind of bullshit he was talking about so loudly.
Now I finally understand what it means.
‘I meant to eat up all the constellations.’
If the Heavenly Demon truly had the same Dark Heaven as him, it was understandable that he would set such a goal.
The pleasure and thrill that Ojin felt when absorbing part of the constellation’s soul was so intense that he had never experienced it before.
‘In other words, the Heavenly Demon’s goal is to use the Black Holy Society to devour all of the constellations.’
Ojin’s eyes narrowed.
Despite having such a grand goal, I have never seen any of the Black Holy Order factions that I have dealt with so far come forward to fight against the Constellation.
‘It doesn’t make sense to fight the Constellation itself.’
Still, if the goal of the Heavenly Demon who created the Black Star Society was to fight the Constellations, wouldn’t it be a bit strange for each faction to be divided into different factions and have different goals and actions?
Ojin looked back at Cassia and opened his mouth in a cold voice.
“Even though I knew the purpose well, I didn’t see any action.”
“That’s…!”
“Was it just lip service?”
“Oh no!”
Cassia shook her head with a pale expression.
“While the Heavenly Demon was away… the number of people who dared to doubt the existence of the Heavenly Demon increased. Some people even went so far as to call themselves the Heavenly Demon in a profane way.”
Are you talking about Juan Sukhothai?
“In order to restore the divided factions to their proper state, I personally punished those who tried to go against the will of the Heavenly Demon.”
Cassia’s eyes lit up like a puppy wanting praise.
“Of course, it’s not all over yet. “The cat and the fly… Oh, and the leech, too.”
He smiled eerily and showed a dark expression of murder.
“Don’t worry my God. “Sooner or later, I will offer up the heads of the ungodly people who have forgotten the will of the Heavenly Demon to the Heavenly Demon.”
“for a moment.”
Stop you crazy woman.
“Take out the leeches.”
“…yes?”
“That child is now by my side assisting me.”
“ah.”
Cassia’s eyes opened wide.
“…Did you?”
The voice became sullen.
‘Anyway, I think I understand the situation now.’
So, this would mean that a guy named Cheonma created the Black Holy Society, but for some reason it suddenly disappeared and became the current Black Holy Society.
‘In the end, it means that even Queen Serpens doesn’t know about the Heavenly Demon’s whereabouts.’
If I had known, I wouldn’t have mistaken myself for a Heavenly Demon.
‘Then, if only I could take advantage of this situation.’
perhaps.
A thought crossed my mind that, like Isabella, I might be able to recruit Cassia as an ally.
“I will follow the Heavenly Demon’s will.”
Cassia bowed her head deeply towards Ojin.
It wasn’t an expression I really liked, though.
First of all, if it’s an order from the Heavenly Demon, it seems like he follows it without worrying about every word.
‘If we do it well, we might be able to attract him as a real ally.’
Of course, you have to hide the fact that you call yourself the Heavenly Demon and the existence of the Black Heaven.
I thought that if there was this level of fanatical loyalty, I could put it to good use.
‘As long as we attract the Serpent Queen.’
The corners of Ojin’s mouth slowly rose.
I thought of Cassia, who had driven the Holy Spirit, who had inherited part of the constellation’s soul, to death with just a few words.
If I get my hands on her.
It will be a great help not only to the Black Saints Association but also to the threat of the real ‘Heavenly Demon’.
‘Now it looks like a screw or two is missing.’
Actually, if we put it that way, wasn’t it the same when I first met Isabella?
As it turns out, Cassia may have had a good nature like Isabella.
If only I could somehow convince her.
If only we could change it before it’s too late.
Cassia, like Isabella━
“Oh, by the way, I have a gift for you, Heavenly Demon!”
“A gift?”
“yes!”
Cassia, who had been sullen, suddenly raised her head as if a good idea occurred to her.
She stretched out her hand to the side, and a green snake crawled out of the elongated shadow.
The snake came out of the shadows, had something in its mouth, and placed a ‘gift’ on her hand out to the side.
“Hehe. “A gift prepared by a lowly servant comes.”
Cassia held out the gift, which she politely lifted with both hands, towards Ojin.
“….”
Ohjin’s expression hardened after confirming the ‘gift’.
“Go ahead and try it, Cheonma.”
Cassia stuck out her long snake-like tongue with an expression full of anticipation.
Drop, drop.
Red blood dripped between my slender fingers.
“The heart of Tamrangseong comes.”
My heart is pounding.
She burst out laughing as she held out her pulsating heart in her hand toward Ojin.
Ojin looked at the heart placed on Cassia’s hand and swallowed a laugh.
‘If I do well, I’ll be able to attract you as an ally like Isabella?’
A cold mockery towards oneself.
‘It’s late.’
It’s different from Isabella.
Queen Serpens…was already irreparably damaged.
