I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 338
I am not a returner Episode 338:
Black Sky (2)
Ojin returned to the group and relayed the information he had heard from Cassia.
From the fact that the Heavenly Demon is currently sealed in Niflheim, to the fact that a ritual to unseal it will be held in a month.
“Consciousness…?”
“Ha, a month?”
Ha-eun and Isabella’s expressions hardened at the shocking news that there was only one month left until the seal on the Heavenly Demon was released.
Riak, who was quietly listening to the conversation, turned his head towards Ojin and asked.
“Where on earth did you get that information, kid?”
“When I searched Deimos’ body, I found this.”
Ohjin took out a communication relic from his pocket.
As magic power was poured into the relic, a hard voice came out and instructions related to the sealing ritual came out.
A directive that orders Deimos to provide tribute or relics to be used in rituals.
Of course, the voice coming from the communication relic was a fake command recorded by Ojin, but it could not be said honestly that he had heard information about the ritual from Queen Serpens.
“Then you’re in big trouble, aren’t you? “There’s only one month left, right?!”
“We have to block the ritual.”
I couldn’t let the Heavenly Demon break the seal and crawl out.
“How do you plan to stop it?”
“For now, I plan to gather as much power as I can.”
The help of the beast people and dragon people was needed.
No matter how strong Ojin and his party were, they were too few in number to attack a single ‘kingdom’.
“me too! “I will help good people too!”
Baek Moo-gang raised his hand and smiled brightly.
Ohjin smiled and nodded.
“Please, old man.”
“huh! Believe me!”
Baek Moo-gang is pounding his chest and pulling out the Holy Sword of Deneb hanging from his waist.
Because of this incident, a powerful relic called the Holy Sword of Deneb has been recovered, so Baekmugang will become the force Ojin had hoped for.
Since Baekmugang readily accepted the offer, all that was left was to convey this plan to the dragon and beast tribes and ask for their cooperation.
“Even if the Dragonian Kingdom is close to here… the problem is the Khan Kingdom.”
Limited time of one month.
In order to gather all the power of the Khan Kingdom within that time, several conditions were necessary.
One is to know the path of the Sky Mountains and be able to cross them.
The two of them must have fast legs that can reach the Kingdom of Khan within a week.
Even if the three had to appear out of nowhere and attack Niflheim, they would have such a strong influence that the beastmen would gladly lend their strength.
Among the group, there was only one person who met all of those conditions.
“There is no one but Mr. Riak.”
“Okay.”
Riak frowned as if he had a headache.
With excellent senses, he perfectly remembers the roads he once passed, has quick mobility, and at the same time has a strong influence as a former ‘Khan’.
There was no one better than Riak to gather the beastmen of the Khan Kingdom.
“Phew, I understand. “Let me go.”
“Are you okay alone?”
“Hmph, who is worrying about whom, kid?”
Riak snorted and looked at Ojin with disapproving eyes.
Oh Jin chuckled and nodded.
“Then go back to the sanctuary. I’ll call you when we get out of the volcano. “Please tell Vega about this incident.”
“i get it.”
A silver light flashed from Riak’s body and soon disappeared into thin air.
“Let’s pack our bags and go outside.”
“Ojini, are you okay? “I heard there are still some aftereffects.”
“It’s not all better yet, but there’s no problem with moving.”
In fact, I felt tired even if I moved even a little, so I wanted to rest in the castle for a few more days.
With only about a month left until the ceremony to unseal the Heavenly Demon, there was no time to rest in peace.
“Would you like my sister to carry me?”
“What do you carry on your back?”
“Why are you so strong, no matter what happens?”
Even if Ha-eun is an awakened person who specializes in long-distance attacks, since she is a high-ranked awakened person, it would be easy to carry one Ohjin.
“It’s okay, old lady.”
As I imagined myself carrying Ha-eun on her back, I felt a sense of shame that was difficult to describe in words.
Ha-eun clicked her tongue with an expression of disappointment at Oh-jin’s sharp refusal.
“I thought we were going to massage some bread on the way.”
What are you talking about, sister?
“It’s just a joke, Sasha.”
Ha-eun giggled and lightly pinched Oh-jin’s cheek.
“Don’t worry too much. “Everything will be fine.”
Was Ha-eun trying to relieve Oh Jin’s tension in his own way?
Whatever the method, it worked.
Oh Jin laughed and looked at Ha Eun.
On the outside, I was pretending like nothing was wrong, pretending to be relaxed, and joking around.
Oh Jin, who had lived with her all his life, could clearly see how much she cared about him.
‘sister.’
A ray of starlight fell into his life, where nothing was visible like a black sky.
A woman who is infinitely precious and infinitely lovely.
I would do anything for her.
‘I guess it’s the same for you too.’
Oh Jin smiled bitterly as he remembered the young man with the same face as him.
“What is it? “Why are you looking at me so intently, making people feel burdened?”
Ha-eun flinched, her shoulders shaking and her cheeks blushing.
Did he sense something in Oh Jin’s eyes?
I glanced at him with an expectant expression.
“never mind. “Let’s go quickly and pack our bags.”
“It’s bland.”
Ha-eun returns to her room, pouting as if her anticipation has cooled.
Ohjin looked at her back as she walked away and smiled faintly.
“…Mr. Ohjin.”
A cold, subdued voice was heard.
I flinch.
This time, Ojin’s shoulders trembled.
Of course, unlike Ha-eun, she was shaking in pure fear.
“Can you two talk for a moment?”
“Huh? Uh oh. “It’s possible.”
I swallowed dry saliva and followed Isabella.
click.
Isabella entered the room and locked the door.
“Hey… Ms. Isabella?”
When I looked at her with a nervous expression, wondering if my jealousy toward Ha-eun had exploded like last time.
“Did you hear the information you heard earlier from your sister?”
What came out of Isabella’s mouth were different from Ojin’s expectations.
“…how did you know?”
“I don’t think such an important command would have been sent through a communication relic. And…”
Isabella’s eyes narrowed.
Isabella, who came close to Ojin, sniffed.
“Oh Jin smelled like another woman.”
“….”
What, a dog?
Oh Ji-eun looked at Isabella with a puzzled expression.
Now that I think about it, I remembered Cassia saying the same thing before.
‘Why are sisters similar in even these parts?’
How can a ghost smell something that even Riak, a beastman, could not smell?
“Are you meeting your sister?”
“…ha. that’s right.”
Ohjin continued to think for a moment and nodded as if he had lost.
I knew it would be like that!
Isabella stomped her feet in frustration and came closer to Ojin.
“Oh, she didn’t do anything, did she?”
Isabella said and groped Ojin’s thigh.
‘Why are you groping there?’
Ojin sighed deeply and shook his head.
“Nothing happened, don’t worry. “I only gave you information about the Heavenly Demon.”
“…is it true?”
Isabella looks at Ojin with suspicious eyes.
Ojin asked, looking at Isabella who was as nervous as a cat on fire.
“But weren’t you on good terms with Cassia?”
“It used to be like that, but…”
Isabella trailed off and bit her chapped lip.
Memories of the last time I encountered Cassia before coming to Demon Lord came to mind.
-Or… should I have it?
Cassia’s eyes were sinister as she boldly declared that she would take Ojin away in front of her.
The gentle appearance of the past was no longer visible in her appearance.
And even if Cassia approached her as warmly as she did when she was young, Isabella could not accept her meekly.
“You… tried to kill Oh Jin.”
“That’s the spirit of the Heavenly Demon…”
“I know.”
I knew that Cassia was not in her right mind at that time.
However, even though I knew it in my head, when I remembered that Oh Jin almost died at that time, I felt a deep sense of death.
Ojin stroked Isabella’s cheek, who was licking her lips with a complicated expression.
“Anyway, nothing happened, so don’t worry.”
“…yes.”
As I stroked her cheek, Isabella’s fierce expression brightened.
I briefly considered telling her that Cassia was worried about Isabella, but I quickly gave up the thought.
‘This is a job for two people to solve.’
Although their relationship as sisters was entangled in one way or another.
If given the right opportunity, it will be possible to return to the original relationship.
“My breasts are also small… What do you have?”
You can come back… right?
“Hmm. “Let’s pack our bags soon.”
The Dragonian Kingdom wasn’t that far away, but it still didn’t mean there was enough time to relax.
There is one month left until the ceremony takes place.
There was a mountain of preparation to be done in the meantime.
* * *
A space filled with dark clouds.
“ha.”
A low sigh echoed hollowly in the distant darkness.
Eyes filled with deep fatigue.
A dry smile appeared on the man’s lips.
“Still… I’m glad we can talk about it.”
The man muttered in a subdued voice and laid down on the black clouds.
Grumbling.
A black cloud approached and enveloped his body.
“Ugh…!”
A man groaning as if in pain.
His body, enveloped in black clouds, gradually began to melt away.
It’s like ink dissolved in water.
The man’s body gradually began to be engulfed by black clouds.
As the black clouds engulfed me, I remembered another ‘Ojin’ I had just met.
‘Like you… if I had the Lyra stigmata, would things have been different?’
A low laugh came from the man’s mouth.
Now, it was a meaningless assumption.
No matter how strong rebar was added to a building that had already begun to collapse, the collapse could not be prevented.
but.
“little bit more.”
There is not much time left until the seal is released.
A dry smile appeared on the man’s lips.
“Okay… now the preparations are complete.”
Grumbling.
Even as it was engulfed by dark clouds, the blue natural light in the man’s eyes was burning fiercely.
“It’s time to keep your promise, Vega.”
A low voice echoed in the darkness.
