I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 244
I am not a returner Episode 244
Interlude – Left path
“Ha ha ha!”
Breath rising to the tip of my chin.
The blood flowing from the torn wound soaked my clothes.
“Ugh.”
Ojin poured the potion supplied from Satellite Bridge onto the wound.
“Even damn Madecassol would work better than this.”
I didn’t expect the performance of the supplies given to a low-level person without even a position.
Ojin crawled across the floor and searched the pockets of a dead believer whose head had been split open by a Valhalla guild member’s hammer.
“Still, this guy is somewhat useful.”
After pouring the potion into the wound again, Ojin leaned against the cave wall and sighed deeply.
“It’s already been half a year.”
Half a year has passed since I left Ha-eun’s side and became a believer in the Satellite Church.
Since he couldn’t see her face or hear her voice during that time, the unbearable loneliness weighed on him.
‘Just a little… just a little more.’
Ojin groped her left breast.
With the blessing of Owl, the wound was healed to the point where I could move my body freely.
The ‘stigmata’, a symbol of the awakened, had not yet been engraved on his left chest.
‘The fake Aquarius stigmata that was carved before also disappeared during the treatment process.’
Now I could only feel the smooth skin against my fingertips.
“When I become an awakened… I will definitely go back, sister.”
Ojin leaned against the cave wall and uttered an inaudible oath.
Now that I have no stigmata, I am living like a bullet point.
As you gain stigmata and accumulate achievements, you will be able to access the ‘Wolgung (月宮)’, a place where Saejeongyo’s cherished relics are collected.
‘You take a bite there and you’re out.’
It was close to impossible for him, who was only a lowly player, to approach the Moon Palace, but he had a plan in mind.
‘If only I could deceive Cheon Do-yoon… or rather, the ‘snake’ who is controlling him.’
Haven’t you lived your whole life committing fraud?
I was quite confident in deceiving others.
“Well, I don’t know if my sister will accept me if I come back and shamelessly go back.”
Oh Jin smiled sadly and clenched his fists.
Even though half a year has passed, the memories of that day still come to mind.
The memory of having to leave Ha-eun’s side, leaving behind only one line of prayer asking for her.
“….”
My heart throbbed as if I had been stabbed with a sharp knife, but I did not regret my choice that day.
If I could go back to that time, I would probably make the same choice.
‘At least… I don’t want to be a distraction.’
Ha-eun became a member of the Valhalla guild and was even selected as a member of the Guardian Castle.
As her name suggests, she did not want to become ‘dirty dust’ in her life that was beginning to shine brightly.
So I left.
He left only a one-line letter asking Lee Shin-hyuk to take care of Ha-eun.
He disappeared from her side without saying a final goodbye.
“Let’s move slowly.”
Ohjin, seeing that the bleeding had been roughly stopped from the wound, slowly stood up.
‘Everyone must have escaped through the external passage by now.’
During the battle with the Valhalla Guild, I deliberately leaked information to them that the Satellite Church’s executive officer was in the inner cavity.
They must have been well aware of the monstrous power of the executioners who had been given power by the ‘Snake’, so they must have escaped to the outside passage immediately after hearing the news.
‘There are some troops there too.’
The strength of Lee Shin-hyuk, Lee Woo-hyuk, and Ha-eun was enough to break through.
“Huh cha.”
Ojin walked toward the inner cavity with unsteady steps.
By now, the executioners of the Satellite Bridge on the other side of the cave had also taken the ‘Dragon Heart’ they had targeted and left the dungeon.
‘Let’s check if there’s anything inside and let’s go.’
For him who didn’t even have stigmata yet, it would be great if he could get even a crumb of the ‘Heart of the Dragon’.
Ojin climbed over the remains of the rocks and reached the internal cavity.
“Wow.”
What you see there is a huge space made of blue crystal.
Although I couldn’t really feel the magic yet, I could intuitively feel that there was some tremendous energy in this space itself.
“Can I really salvage something from this?”
Ohjin’s eyes lit up and he looked around.
At that time, a strange trace caught Ojin’s eyes.
“…is it melted?”
The floor and walls were black and had scorched marks.
As if it had been burned with a hot fire.
Ojin walked along the traces.
A red-colored ball of thread was visible among the collapsed rubble.
“This…”
is not a ball of yarn.
It was hair.
“uh?”
An eerie shiver running down my spine.
“Oh no. “You went to the outside passage.”
Erasing the ominous imagination that came to mind, Ojin cleared away the crystal debris.
Rapid breathing.
Every time the rubble was removed, something underneath was gradually revealed.
Clothes soaked in blood.
and.
A woman with hair redder than blood.
“Uh huh…?”
A hideous corpse with its left eyeball dug out.
Although half of the face was missing, Ojin was able to very easily recognize the owner of the corpse.
“sister…?”
why.
why.
why.
why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why. why.
“Why is your sister… here…?”
Rapid breathing.
Ojin groped the corpse beneath the rubble several times with trembling hands.
“No….”
It can’t be Ha-eun.
It shouldn’t be Ha-eun.
“I… told you there was a bailiff on the communal side.”
In that case, Ha-eun shouldn’t come here.
No matter what happens.
Ha-eun shouldn’t be here.
“I! I told you! You leaked information!! But why…”
If she tried to come to the inner cavity on her own, someone would have to step in and stop her.
He has already created someone to take on that role on his behalf.
however.
why.
“I said I would protect you… I said I would protect you! “You did it!”
Oh Jin hugged Ha Eun’s body with trembling hands.
A corpse that is still warm.
I desperately embrace her gradually cooling warmth.
“Noona, noona, noona, noona.”
weird.
It’s so sad.
It’s so painful it feels like my heart is being torn apart.
There were no tears.
“You’re not dead, are you, sister?”
The whole world felt like a huge theater.
The world turned gray, as if a black and white movie was being played.
The world I had been living in until now felt so unfamiliar.
“ha ha ha. right? sister…?”
okay. In fact, his entire life was just a play.
The director of the orphanage who bullied him terribly and Lee Shin-hyuk who took away his hope.
They were all actors hired in plays.
At the end, ‘Ta-da! He will appear with a bright smile and say, ‘Thank you for watching so far!’
“Please… please tell me you’re lying, okay?”
but.
Then why?
Will this damn play never come to an end?
Kuruk.
at that time.
Intense pain starting from the left side of the heart overtook Ojin.
“Ugh!”
The sound of clear drops echoed in my ears along with the pain.
Tiring!
[Black Heaven begins its first flowering!]
[Black Heaven absorbs the stigmata of the constellation Dragon!]
“…Black Heaven?”
Ojin’s eyes frowned at the word he saw for the first time.
But even for a moment.
Gurgling!
A black cloud stretched out arbitrarily from the palm of her hand and covered Ha-eun’s left breast.
An energy he had never felt before flowed through the dark clouds into his body.
The magical power of the Stigmata of Dragon that Ha-eun would have originally possessed.
“no.”
Ojin stretched out his hand towards the black cloud that was greedily devouring the stigmata.
The magic power I had so desperately longed for was welling up in my body.
“Don’t eat it…!”
This is Ha-eun’s.
It has to be Ha-eun’s.
Otherwise.
“Don’t eat it… you bastard!”
Ojin used his hand to remove the black cloud that had stuck to his left chest.
The dark clouds that had dispersed like smoke gather in one place again and continue to take away Ha-eun’s magic.
“Please… stop! please!”
I scream.
Crying.
However, the dark clouds of the dark sky greedily ate up Ha-eun’s magical power as if they could not hear her screams.
“Stop, stop, stop, stop, you fucking bastard!!!”
The magical power of stigmata flowing into the body.
Along with that, the magical power remaining in her corpse gradually began to disappear.
A body that has lost its magic cools down at a rapid rate.
The warmth that remained.
Her warmth that I had longed for.
disappears
It’s getting cold.
It becomes cold and hardens.
Tiring!
[The Stigmata of the Dragon has been successfully absorbed!]
[The Stigmata of the Dragon has been designated as the representative stigmata.]
Cheeeeeeeek.
A hot pain, like being stabbed with an iron, burns my left chest.
“…ah.”
Oh Jin groped her left breast with a trembling hand.
What I can feel at my fingertips.
The stigmata of Dragon that Ha-eun had.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”
The world falls apart.
Crushed, trampled and crushed.
-Rarrrrrrrrrr!
The flames burn and envelop the body.
It was a flame that was all too familiar to him.
Ha-eun’s face overlaps beyond the blazing flames.
“sister…?”
Ojin touched the flame with a trembling hand.
Ha-eun’s face, which was overlapping with the flames, dispersed like smoke and disappeared.
“….”
Eyes that have lost their light.
Ojin looked down at her cold body with empty eyes.
“Hmm, there are people left?”
at that time.
Someone’s voice was heard.
“It looks like that kid came here just like us to see if he has anything to salvage?”
“Oh, you know that guy? Why is there that woman among the guardian saints? “He’s his younger brother.”
“That’s right.”
The voice in my ear feels awkward.
It seems like clumsy actors are reciting a set script.
“…ha ha ha.”
A dry laugh escaped.
okay.
It would be natural for your voice to feel awkward.
“This is all… a lie.”
This world was an elaborate theater stage.
Ojin slowly stood up.
Grumble!
Flames as hot as a dragon’s breath enveloped my body.
“What, didn’t that kid have stigmata?”
“Did you find any relics somewhere?”
“Hehe. “It’s good.”
Satellite believers approached with deep smiles.
Oh Jin looked back at them and had a similarly deep smile on his face.
“okay.”
What if all of this was an elaborate play?
“The curtain has to come down.”
Oh Jin raised his head and his blue eyes burned brightly.
Soon, a terrible scream was heard and the thick smoke of burning flesh filled the cavity.
This is a story that is not recorded in the biography of a hero who overcame countless hardships and hardships to kill the Heavenly Demon.
Not chosen.
The story of the left road.
