I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 250

I am not a returner Episode 250: Heavenly

Dragon (2)

“Huh? “Let’s catch him?”

Ha-eun opened her eyes and tilted her head.

“But I just didn’t know where the nest is…”

“I know.”

“what?”

“I know the location of the nest.”

“…how?”

Ha-eun and Isabella looked at Oh Jin in disbelief.

However, Vega and Riak’s expressions were a little different.

[Hehe. That is indeed what happened.]

“Crrr. “I guess this hasn’t changed.”

Vega and Riak nodded as if they understood.

Isabella, whose doubts deepened at the two’s reactions, narrowed her eyes.

“It hasn’t changed? What does that mean, Oh Jin?”

“….”

Ojin hesitated to answer for a moment and turned to Vega.

A look in his eyes as if asking if it was okay to say this.

Vega shrugged and nodded.

[Isn’t that what the Constellations found out about anyway?]

“That’s true.”

Ojin nodded and turned his head towards Isabella.

“I have something to tell you, Isabella.”

“Oh yeah. “Please speak, Oh Jin.”

“I…”

He continued in a low voice.

“I am a regressor.”

“…yes?”

Isabella opened her mouth with a dumb expression.

Soon she looked at Oh Jin with concern.

“Mr. Oh Jin. “Maybe you drank too much…”

[It’s true.]

Vega flew up.

Isabella asked with a confused expression.

“Is it true? “If you’re a regressor… then… you’re from the future, right?”

“that’s right.”

Oh Jin nodded and slowly revealed the story he had kept hidden until now.

Of course, even if it was a story that was hidden, most of it was made up of lies.

“….”

After the long story, Isabella touched her forehead as if she had a headache.

“Wait a minute… give me some time to think.”

A hot head.

Numerous thoughts were intricately tangled.

If someone else had said this, I would have immediately yelled at them to stop talking nonsense.

“…Really?”

This is what Oh Jin said, not anyone else.

The person she trusts the most and gives her heart to right now.

Ohjin nodded silently.

Isabella turned her head and looked at Ha-eun.

“Did you know too?”

“Yes?”

Startle.

Ha-eun shook her shoulders with an embarrassed expression.

She smiled awkwardly and scratched her head.

“That’s right.”

If I knew, I knew.

To be precise, Oh Jin is not a regressor but is ‘pretending’ to be a regressor.

‘Why, you shameless bastard, how can you babble so calmly without even changing your complexion?’

Ha-eun looked at Oh-jin as if it was hard to believe.

Usually, one of the most important things when detecting someone else’s lies is facial expressions.

The slight tremors of the pupils, the movements of the lips, eyebrows, and chin, minor gestures, and even the voice.

When humans tell a lie, no matter how hard they try to hide it, it will instinctively be revealed.

Hasn’t that happened sometimes?

When you look at the other person and inadvertently realize, ‘Oh, this is a lie.’

That was when I caught the outward facial expression, body language, voice, etc. without being conscious of it.

‘however.’

Ojin had nothing like that.

Even from her perspective, who knew all the facts, the thought ‘Is this really a return?’ came to mind without thinking, and her eyes, facial expressions, and voice were so natural that I didn’t think she was lying.

“Why didn’t you tell me until now?”

Isabella looked at Ojin with trembling eyes.

He was the only one who didn’t know the fact that Vega, Haeun, and even Riak all knew.

Anxiety sprouted in her heart that Ojin might not yet fully trust her.

“Is it because I am the Awakened One of the constellation Leech?”

“no.”

Ojin shook his head resolutely.

“It was such an absurd story that I thought no one would believe me even if I told it.”

“That’s not true…”

Isabella’s lips stiffened as she tried to deny everything.

She remembered that when she first heard that Oh Jin was a regressor, she was worried that he might have been drinking too much.

If Vega hadn’t come forward and told him it was true, would he have believed what he said?

Even now, I’m thinking to myself that maybe Oh Jin and Vega Ha-eun are making fun of each other?

“…It’s hard to say that’s not the case.”

“Well, that’s natural. “If someone told me they came from the future, I would tell them not to talk nonsense.”

Ohjin laughed.

“But it’s something you can’t hide forever, right? “Isabella… well, we’re like family now.”

“yes?”

Isabella’s eyes widened.

She flapped her legs with a bright red face.

“Are you proposing just now?”

“Eh?”

“You proposed, right?!”

“No, that’s not it. “I meant it in the sense that since we live in the same house, we are like family.”

“When would be a good time to eat?!”

“Listen to what people say, young lady.”

In a different way, he hit Isabella on the head, who was excited.

Isabella touched her forehead and took a deep breath.

As she was catching her breath, she let out a short exclamation as if something had occurred to her.

“Then… Oh Jin came to Italy and saved me.”

I didn’t even think about it at the time.

When I thought about it again after hearing that Ojin was a regressor, the timing of him coming to save me was perfect.

“that’s right.”

Ojin nodded heavily.

Isabella narrowed her eyes and asked in a deep voice.

“What happened to me in my past life?”

“That’s…”

Ohjin hesitated to answer for a moment, then opened his mouth with a deep sigh.

“I couldn’t overcome my urge to suck blood and turned Italy into a sea of fire.”

“….”

The image of Italy being engulfed in fire came to mind.

Even if he hadn’t saved her, she probably wouldn’t have died there, but the situation would have been very different from now.

“Then, if Mr. Ojin hadn’t been there, I would have…”

Isabella closed her mouth tightly, recalling the memory of that time.

In order to eliminate the Marco Family, which was illegally distributing drugs in Italy, he used himself as bait to lure them out, but it was true that he was put in a very dangerous situation due to Jamiwon’s curse.

Maybe if there had been no misdiagnosis.

As he said, he may have completely lost his mind and gone crazy.

“There’s no need to think about it now. Because a past life is just a past life.”

“but.”

“Now you’ve found a way to control your vampiric impulses, right?”

Ojin squeezed the hand of Isabella, who looked anxious.

I felt the anxiety that had sprouted in my heart disappear as if Isabella was feeling the warm warmth coming from my hand.

“…Weird.”

“what?”

Isabella lowered her head and strengthened her grip.

It was strange.

I thought I was already so in love with Oh Jin that I couldn’t fall for him anymore.

I liked him more.

“Hehe. it’s nothing. Thank you for your words, Oh Jin.”

Isabella smiled brightly and shook her head.

I wanted to convey all of these feelings that were about to explode to him.

Now, sitting next to him was Ha-eun, not him.

‘But someday.’

Isabella deeply suppressed her boiling emotions and let go of her hand.

“Then do you plan to seek cooperation from the Valhalla Guild to subdue the Heavenly Dragon?”

“no. “I don’t plan on contacting the Valhalla guild.”

Oh Jin shook his head quietly.

“…Is there any other reason?”

It is true that if your goal is to subdue the Heavenly Dragon, it would be more efficient to cooperate with the Valhalla Guild.

“This is what I have to do.”

Oh Jin glanced at Ha Eun and said.

“…ah.”

Now that I think about it, I’ve heard it before.

Before meeting myself.

Ha-eun was cursed by the Heavenly Dragon and lived without seeing the light of day for several years.

“Why is that your job?”

Ha-eun tapped Oh-jin on the shoulder.

“sister?”

“This is my business, not yours.”

Ha-eun’s eyes shone coldly.

But unlike her lifeless eyes, her legs were trembling slightly.

It’s scary.

To meet again with the being who trapped him in terrible darkness.

“…There’s no need to strain yourself, sister.”

“You’re not overdoing it.”

Ha-eun shook her head.

She chuckled, calming her trembling legs.

“Thank you for caring about me. “Isn’t this girl so thin and delicate that she even asks others for revenge?”

Grumbling.

A faint flame burned in the clenched fist.

“I will kill that lizard bastard.”

“We can kill them together.”

I wasn’t my parents’ enemy and there was no reason to fight one on one.

“Well, anyway. “Let’s go catch that little lizard together, okay?”

“huh. “With the five of us here, there will be no shortage of power.”

Vega and Riak are unable to use their strength properly due to the restrictions of the law.

Even taking that into account, the party’s strength was sufficient.

Even putting everything else aside, Isabella was there.

“but. “Now that I think about it, that bastard of Cheon Ju-ryong was only a 9-star, right?”

Six years ago, a 9-star monster was literally a disaster.

Now that the number of awakened people has increased and their average skills have become several times stronger, 9-star monsters are not a big threat.

Of course, because it is a ‘named’ with intelligence and not an ordinary monster, it would have exceptional power even among 9-stars.

“Isn’t Isabella picking everything up by herself?”

“Then why don’t you go and just me and Mr. Ojin?”

“yes? “You’re playing tricks again.”

Ha-eun frowned and glared at Isabella.

“Did I tell you? “I’m going to kill that lizard.”

“Ho Ho. “Okay, sister.”

Isabella smiled gracefully, covering her mouth with her hand.

[Heavenly Dragon… It’s a name that makes you feel evil just by hearing it.]

“Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm! Even so, it’s just a monster.”

Riak fiercely bared his teeth and burned his fighting spirit.

[When do you plan to leave?]

“There will be no need to rush.”

It’s time for the Heavenly Dragon to awaken and gather its power.

Of course, the faster the better, but there was no need to rush and neglect preparation.

“I plan to go to the association first.”

“Oh, because of what Sihu said this time?”

It was necessary to investigate Living Armor’s spear, Dantalian, in detail.

“huh. “It would be nice if I could get some of my sister’s equipment there too.”

“Then let’s go together tomorrow.”

“Isabella, do you need anything else?”

“I’m fine too. “As long as I have Mr. Oh Jin, I can be in full condition at any time.”

Isabella smiled deeply as she ran her hand over the nape of Ojin’s neck.

[Then I guess I should save up as much strength as I can until the main woman leaves.]

“Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm! All a true warrior needs is fighting spirit and skill! “Let’s leave right now, baby!”

Is it because, after being confined to the sanctuary for a while and training day and night, I got a chance to fight for the first time in a while?

Riak growled with an excited expression.

“I haven’t even cleaned up the plates yet, man. Why don’t we leave now?”

Oh Jin chuckled and got up from his seat.

It was Cheon Ju-ryong and Nabal, and right now, the priority was to clean up the messy table.

“I’ll do the dishes.”

Oh Jin picked up the remaining dishes and headed to the kitchen.
