The Constellations Are My Disciples - Chapter 286
◈ Episode 286 My students are strange (4)
Kim Joo-hyuk, who had been listening to the voice for a while, briefly summarized what he heard from her.
“If I were to conclude, my real enemy is not Hwashin, but the guy who is manipulating those guys from behind, right?”
[that’s right. It was he who instigated Hwashin, and he was the one who ultimately inflicted damage that was close to extinction to Master.] “
Then you are saying that he is the most important, but where is he now? If I listen to your story, that guy wasn’t even sealed, right?”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, the voice half-opened its eyes and spoke in silence.
[Probably sealed.]
“…Sealed?”
[Because he would be hiding among the incarnations in the first place.]
“…So you’re saying he doesn’t have a body?”
[Yes. That guy is probably hiding among the sealed Avatars. Parashurama and Buddha have already been infected, so it’s probably in other avatars.]
“Then what I have to do is deal with those avatars as well as the guy who may be attached to someone else…?”
[that’s right. In fact, what the teacher has to do has not changed.]
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded as if the voice said it was right, and then, like the voice, there was a moment of silence and then he asked a question.
“But what is the identity of that guy who is infecting the Avatars? “What on earth is it that allows you to steal Hwashin’s body?”
[I don’t know that either.]
Kim Joo-hyuk was able to hear the answer right away.
[I don’t know how that guy can steal Hwashin’s body. The identity is also the same. The reason I know about him in the first place is because Master told me about him.]
“Me?”
[yes. So, this is all I know.]
“Hmm….”
Kim Joo-hyuk is worried.
However, he soon remembered himself meeting himself when he touched the lotus of reincarnation, and nodded.
‘If I really knew about that guy’s identity back in the day.’
Kim Joo-hyuk decided to skip this topic for now, as there would probably be a situation where he would be asked about the guy’s identity once he gained the ability to bloom.
“Can I just touch this?”
He looked at the white light cluster in front of his eyes.
The white light cluster that he had not been able to catch because he was talking with his voice until a moment ago stopped in front of Kim Joo-hyuk, emitting a steady light.
[that’s right. If you touch it, Master’s flowering ability will return again. We will get out of here at the same time.]
“If I want to see you, can I use the Jinbeop again to come back in?”
In response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question, the voice shook its head.
[No, there is no need for that. Anyway, when the time comes, Master and I will have to talk separately. I will tell you everything when that time comes .
]
[Why am I in Master’s subconscious and who am I?]
After hearing the words, Kim Joo-hyuk raised his right hand without hesitation and caught the pure white light.
“!”
As soon as he caught the pure white light, Kim Joo-hyuk was able to see that huge lights were exploding in all directions.
####
The guide assumed that it would take about a week for Kim Joo-hyuk to acquire the ability to bloom in his subconscious.
‘No, to be honest, even a week is too short.’
To be honest, it was correct to assume that Kim Joo-hyuk’s process of gaining the flowering ability took about a month, not a week.
In the first place, regaining the flowering ability was obviously something that would take a long time.
In the first place, the current Kim Joo-hyuk definitely regained the name Kalki, but he was unable to retrieve all of the memories.
Nevertheless, a change must have occurred in the subconscious of Kim Joo-hyuk, who had already found the name Kalki, and in that unconsciousness, Kim Joo-hyuk had to find his ability to bloom.
Memories are rapidly searched and hidden among the countless memories.
‘As expected, it was a bit difficult to gain the flowering ability now.’
Even though Kim Joo-hyuk wanted it and the situation was different, it felt a bit unreasonable to force it, and the guide honestly felt a little regretful after letting Kim Joo-hyuk into unconsciousness.
Yes, I was clearly regretting it…
“…How did you come out already?”
The guide looked at Kim Joo-hyuk, who came into the office with a blank expression, and asked.
“I found the ability to bloom.”
“…already?”
The guide opened his eyes wide and asked again.
The reason is that no matter how much you think about it, it is impossible to find flowering ability in such a short period of time.
Only about five hours have passed since Kim Joo-hyuk entered unconsciousness.
However, when I told him that I was able to complete a task that I thought would take about a month in just 5 hours, the guide looked surprised.
“…That’s amazing.”
It was the same for Zhong Li Quan next to him.
Kim Joo-hyuk is the guide and Jong Ri-kwon.
and.
“…How about you guys get some rest first? “Aren’t you tired from just finding your memories?”
“Are you resting?”
“No, stay in your room and rest.”
“For me, being next to Master is much more healing than just resting?”
“That goes for me too. Tonight. “I will definitely heal you.”
“…Sure.”
Kim Joo-hyuk began to tell Yan Lang and Choi A-rin, who were waiting for him to come to his senses, about what happened in his subconscious.
So after a while.
“…another disciple.”
“That’s fascinating.”
“Was there anyone else besides us?”
“Well, if you’re a teacher, it’s worth it.”
“Of course.”
Kim Joo-hyuk opened his mouth while listening to the stories of others who listened to the story and left comments as if they were commenting.
“So, does anyone know about this guy’s identity?”
“I told you last time, but I don’t know much about your student relationship.”
The first answer was the guide.
“I have no idea who the disciple in that unconscious mind is.”
The next thing I talked about was Zhong Liquan.
“Me too~ I don’t know of any other disciples of Master.”
“me too.”
Finally, with Yan Lang and Choi A-rin answering, Kim Joo-hyuk put aside his curiosity about the student’s identity.
No one knows anyway, so if you wonder who that guy is, you won’t know anything.
After organizing his thoughts, the guide asked Kim Joo-hyuk a question.
“So if you ended up finding the ability to bloom that way, doesn’t that mean you got all your memories back?”
“yes. “I went in feeling a little nervous after hearing what you said, but I came out with just a halo of light.”
At Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, the guide looked at him with a strange expression and spoke.
“It certainly seems like it has regained its ability to bloom.”
“Do you see that?”
“It’s felt rather than seen. That you found your strength. but.”
“but?”
“I don’t remember you, so I don’t know if I can use my flowering ability properly. Have you ever heard about how to use the flowering ability?”
Kim Joo-hyuk shook his head in response to the guide’s question.
“I wasn’t told how to use it, but as soon as I caught the light, it just popped out of my subconscious.”
“Hmm….”
“Why are you doing that? “If I can’t find my memories, I won’t be able to use my blooming ability even if I know how to do it?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
The guide shook his head.
“No, strictly speaking, it’s not like that. At least to properly use the abilities I know of…”
She thought for a while as she said that, then opened her mouth as if something had just occurred to her.
“Now that you think about it, you said it last time, right? “The moment he touched the lotus of reincarnation, he talked to himself.”
“yes?”
The guide took time to think about Kim Joo-hyuk’s answer again, and then spoke as if he had finished sorting things out.
“Maybe the reason you gained the ability to bloom so easily now is all because of you in the past.”
The guide said that and started explaining a hypothesis to Kim Joo-hyuk before he could even ask what it meant.
The guide soon finished telling the story and spoke as if summarizing it.
“…First of all, this is the hypothesis I came up with.”
“It certainly seems plausible. “Then, if I touch the lotus of reincarnation now and see that guy again, will I know for sure?”
“It’s impossible now. As I said in the explanation earlier, it takes time for the lotus of reincarnation to turn into a peak again.”
“Do I have to wait again?”
“At least wait until the unfolded petals become buds again.”
The guide said that and looked at Kim Joo-hyuk.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked into her eyes once and nodded as if he understood.
####
That night.
“Hmm…”
Kim Joo-hyuk, who eventually came back down to the bottom of the labyrinth to rest, was briefly reminiscing about what happened today.
Among them, what I keep thinking about is the voice and the story I had.
‘The identity of the guy who controls the incarnations….’
Of course, it was a story that could only be heard if the lotus of reincarnation returned to its bud and he could meet his old self again, but it was inevitable that he would be concerned. He was continuing his thoughts.
Meanwhile.
I’m sorry.
“?”
Kim Joo-hyuk opened his door, felt someone coming in, and turned his gaze to look at the door.
and.
Kim Joo-hyuk was able to see Choi A-rin walking in, gently closing his door.
“Why are you here?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Choi A-rin opened her mouth as if it was completely natural.
“I told you earlier. “I will receive healing at night.”
“ah.”
At Choi A-rin’s words, Kim Joo-hyuk only then remembered what she had said several times before and looked at Choi A-rin with a blank expression.
“…something like that.”
Soon he quietly moved the seat next to me.
Well, he couldn’t regain his old memories, but he had slept with other students a few times in the past, so it wasn’t particularly awkward.
‘I wonder if I might do something strange.’
Unlike Yen Lang, who became so unconventional that he became a little wary of her without realizing it, Kim Joo-hyuk’s wariness didn’t particularly go up towards Choi Arin.
That’s because, although Choi Arin definitely changed some things, in the end, overall, I didn’t feel like she had changed much.
‘I think the only thing that has changed is that there is a bit of elegance in the fierce eyes.’
That’s why Kim Joo-hyuk gave his side to Choi A-rin without much thought.
Choi A-rin smiled and crawled next to Kim Joo-hyuk, feeling very happy.
And then 30 minutes later.
“!”
Kim Joo-hyuk was able to see Choi A-rin’s expression suddenly change into a bewitching expression as soon as her hand touched his chest.
The next day.
“…?”
“…Why are you looking at me like that?”
“No, I was wondering why the guy who said he was taking a break was sitting in his seat with such a tired expression.”
Baekho looked at Kim Joo-hyuk, who was sitting in the middle of the house with a slightly tired expression, and asked a question.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at Baekho blankly.
“After meeting with my students, it was harder than I thought.”
I muttered like that.
