I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 309

I am not a returner Episode 309 Faded

Promise (1)

Three days have passed since that day when something stormy(?) happened in many ways.

Ojin and his party were able to escape from the Sky Mountains and reach the long canyon heading to the Dragonian Kingdom.

“at las!”

After confirming that the terrible fog had disappeared, Ha-eun raised her arms as if she was roaring.

Even if the Behemoth died, the fog covering the Sky Mountains did not disappear, so it took quite a bit of time to find the way.

“Now all I have to do is keep going this way, right?”

“huh. “If it’s what you see on the map.”

Ojin nodded, remembering the map Leoru had drawn.

“Anyway…”

Ha-eun trailed off and scratched her head.

“Has Vega been in the sanctuary ever since?”

“Uh… about that.”

Oh Jin cleared his throat and avoided Ha Eun’s gaze.

After the events of that day, Vega locked herself in the sanctuary and did not appear.

“Because something like that happened.”

but.

His tastes were exposed so blatantly in front of his companions that even Vega would not have been able to bear it.

“Let’s not call unless it is absolutely necessary for the time being.”

“Yes I do.”

Anyway, the priority was to check the status of the Dragonian Kingdom right now, so I didn’t really need Vega’s help.

“By the way, Oh Jin.”

Isabella hugged Ojin’s arm with a pretty smile.

Isabella was whispering in my ear with a seductive voice while holding her body tightly.

“Can you spank my butt too?”

“…I really don’t like that kind of thing.”

Although he almost stepped into a new world(?) because of Vega, Ojin basically didn’t have the unique tendency to enjoy being spanked.

“Hehe. well? “What about it?”

Isabella smiled mischievously and pressed her body closer.

‘This is why Vega stays locked in the sanctuary.’

Ojin sighed and walked through the canyon.

Since the incident three days ago, Riak and Vega had been confined to the sanctuary (it is said that they wanted to ask for forgiveness from Vega), so Ojin took the lead.

‘Stigmata of the constellation Canis.’

With my senses raised, I climbed onto Poppy’s back.

“purr!”

“Let’s go slowly.”

Poppy nodded and took a step forward.

I moved slowly while looking around, but once I left the Sky Mountains area, the movement speed itself was not that bad.

How many hours did you run without stopping?

“Atta, I guess I’ll live a little longer now that there’s no fog and demon beasts.”

Ha-eun flirted and added strength to the arm that hugged Oh-jin’s waist.

At first, she looked around with a nervous expression, but after not seeing a single rat for several hours, she seemed to relax somewhat.

“Shall we camp around here today?”

The sun was slowly setting, and I found a nearby valley suitable for taking a dip.

They said they had to reach the kingdom of the dragon people as quickly as possible, but they couldn’t force a march without sleeping.

“Okay then, let’s pitch the tent first!”

Ojin and his party got off Poppy’s back, created an open space and pitched a tent as usual.

“Then let me just talk for a moment!”

After tent setup is completed.

Ha-eun waved her hand and ran somewhere.

While Ha-eun was burning the tobacco, Isabella approached and asked.

“How much further do we have to go from here?”

“well. If you look at the map, it’s not that far.”

However, all that is visible around is a huge canyon that is reminiscent of the Grand Canyon.

Artificial structures worthy of being called a ‘kingdom’ were nowhere to be seen.

“I’ll have to look some more first.”

Thanks to crossing the Sky Mountains, I had some time to spare.

“yes. That’s how I do it. “Oh, I’m going to prepare dinner soon, so could you please bring me over?”

“ok.”

Oh Jin nodded and looked for Ha Eun who had gone to burn the cigarettes.

After activating the stigmata of the constellation Canis, I followed the scent of tobacco and saw Ha-eun burning tobacco in the distance.

“Did you come all the way here and smoke?”

“Ugh.”

As misdiagnosis approached, Ha-eun hurriedly finished rubbing off the remaining half of the New Year’s Eve.

“It’s such a shame, why did you stop blooming?”

“No, that…”

Ha-eun hesitates and looks away.

“I heard men don’t like women who smoke.”

Where did you hear such a strange rumor again?

“Isn’t it meaningless to hide it now? “I stayed with my sister for several years.”

“No, well… but it feels a bit different to show me smoking it myself.”

Ha-eun scratched her head in confusion.

These days, whenever I smoke, I go somewhere far away. Is that why?

“I like it.”

“ok? Really?”

Should I say something sexy?

Ha-eun, who is tall like a model and has fierce eyes, looks a bit like a gangster when she sees her burning tobacco, so it suits her quite well.

“I don’t like the smell of tobacco.”

“Ugh.”

Ha-eun’s hand, which was trying to take a piece of tobacco out of the cigarette pack with a smile, suddenly stopped.

Ha-eun let out a short sigh and put the tobacco back into the cigarette case.

“Ojini, come and sit here for a moment.”

Ha-eun patted the seat next to her.

“I came to invite you to eat.”

“You’ve just started preparing, right? “I’ll have about 10 minutes.”

“Of course.”

Oh Jin nodded and sat down next to Ha Eun.

Ha-eun made a quick movement like a cat and laid down on Oh-jin’s thighs.

Beautiful stars were shining in the dark night sky.

“Ojina.”

“huh?”

“Vega also has feelings for you, right?”

“…that.”

Oh Jin’s expression hardened in shock.

He had known for a long time that he was not the clueless male protagonist that often appears in romantic comedies, and that Vega had a crush on him.

but.

“Probably not.”

“No?”

“Even if I had feelings, it would be closer to maternal love.”

“It’s motherly love…”

Ha-eun herself knows full well that that doesn’t make sense.

“…Okay, let’s leave it at that for now.”

Just because she is, doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a desire to be exclusive.

It’s been a while since I accepted Isabella, so I couldn’t just ask Vega to accept me too.

‘I feel sorry for Vega, though.’

little bit more.

I wanted to enjoy my time with him.

I wanted to share our own memories.

“Being like this reminds me of the old days.”

“A long ago?”

“Why did you avoid the director and go to the roof of the orphanage and lie down like this often?”

“iced coffee. “I remember.”

On days when I lied to the bald director, I used to hide on the rooftop.

Ha-eun giggled and began to bring out old memories that only the two of them could share.

“Do you remember that time when the director made fun of your name and we got angry and fought? “You threw a rag in that director’s face.”

“Of course I remember.”

“Kya! “The director’s expression was so fucking funny back then!”

At the time, I was quite traumatized by the name ‘Ojin’, so when people made fun of me for it, I would get angry like fire.

Well, now that I think about it, I wonder why I reacted so sensitively to something like a name.

When I was young, the fact that the last name left by my parents who abandoned me was ‘dirty dust’ felt like more despair than anything else.

“Now that I think about it, my sister has been calling me by my name intentionally since then.”

When I think back now, wasn’t that quite delicate consideration for a child who didn’t know anything?

‘Ojin’ and ‘Ojini’.

There wasn’t much difference other than slightly slurring the pronunciation.

To him, who had been greatly traumatized by the name itself at the time, the slight difference felt extremely significant.

“how is it? “Aren’t you going to kill your senses?”

“But there’s no need to call me that now.”

“It’s more comfortable because I’m used to it.”

As always, Ha-eun smiled brightly as she called out the name with a short pronunciation.

Among the people who knew Ojin, he was the only one who called him ‘Ojini.’

Other people may not even be able to guess why it is called that.

That’s why I felt proud because it felt like a nickname that only Oh Jin and I could share.

“In that sense, my sister’s name has a really good meaning.”

“Heaven’s grace?”

“ok.”

Ha-eun, short for ‘heaven’s grace.’

If you interpret the meaning of the name, what a pretty name it is compared to yourself, who is ‘dirty dust’.

“My sister said something like that before. As his name suggests, he will become ‘heaven’s grace’ and shine on me…”

“Yayayaya! ” stop!”

Wow!

Ha-eun screamed and twisted her body, as if recalling the dark history of the past.

“How could you say something like that so calmly back in the day?”

“Because I was at that age.”

When I think about it now, wasn’t I at an age when I thought the meaning of a meaningless name was important?

“Wow, thinking about it now makes me feel embarrassed.”

“why? Now that you’ve become ‘heaven’s grace,’ have you no longer had any intention of shining on me?”

“Hey, I told you to stop.”

“No, honestly, it’s much better than dirty dust.”

A misdiagnosis meaning dirty dust.

Ha-eun means heaven’s grace.

There was no need to think about which of the two was better.

“The parents who gave it that name threw away the grace of heaven.”

Ha-eun smiled bitterly and slowly raised her hand to touch Oh-jin’s cheek.

“But now that I think about it, I’m glad.”

“what?”

“If those bastards hadn’t thrown away Grace, I wouldn’t have ever met you, right?”

“….”

Has he become so precious to her that he can say that he was ‘lucky’ that he was abandoned by his parents?

Along with the indescribable emotion, a heavy feeling of guilt weighed on my shoulders.

Does he really deserve to hear those words from her?

“Are you thinking about useless things again?”

Ha-eun stretched Oh-jin’s cheek.

“Let’s go get something to eat soon!”

Ha-eun, who was lying on Oh-jin’s thighs, suddenly got up.

Ha-eun smiles brightly, pulling Oh Jin’s arm as he sits.

Is it because I just talked about old times?

I had the illusion that the face of a young girl slightly overlapped Ha-eun’s brightly smiling face.

“….”

Of course, even if they overlapped, it’s not exactly her old face.

All memories of Ha-eun’s face as a child have disappeared beyond the dark clouds of the dark sky.

“Eh? what? “Why are you crying like that?”

Ha-eun approached Oh-jin with a worried expression.

“No, nothing.”

She doesn’t know that she has forgotten all her childhood memories of her face.

Oh Jin turned around, burying the torn album of memories deep in his heart.

“let’s go eat.”

“wait for a sec.”

Ha-eun carefully pulls his arm.

When I turned my head and tilted my head, Ha-eun slightly stood up and pressed her lips together.

A kiss as light as a bird pecking at feed.

“How do you feel better when your sister gives you a kiss?”

Ha-eun slapped Oh-jin’s butt with a mischievous smile.

“…under.”

A laugh flowed from Ojin’s mouth.

Seeing her smiling playfully made me feel as if a heavy stone had been placed on top of me.

‘I also have a very simple personality.’

Oh Jin walked away with a much more relieved expression.

After having dinner with Isabella Ha-eun and finishing the training that became my daily routine.

Out of exhaustion, I lay down in my sleeping bag.

“It is a grace from heaven.”

I closed my eyes, thinking that this was indeed a fitting name for Ha-eun.
