Theatrical Regression Life - Chapter 442
Episode 442
The possessed person who entered the house had sparkling eyes.
“The house is really nice.”
“I can’t die, I’m rolling around, so at least a house should be nice.”
“And it’s very minimalistic.”
“what.”
“Captain, you don’t plan on living here forever, do you?”
When I looked back, the possessed person laughed.
“You decorated a photo or a frame with a heart. “I don’t see anything like that.”
Jaeheon Lee snorted cynically and answered.
“I’m going to search for it someday, so what am I going to do?”
“I think you’ve probably heard quite a bit here that you have a bad personality. “I love you too, Captain.”
“Please take that love and throw it away. “Because I think I’m going crazy.”
“If you tell me it’s pretty, I’ll fill it up and take it away.”
“Pretty, pretty.”
“I have to tell this to my wife.”
“hey.”
“Oh, you’re just kidding.”
The possessed person sat on the table chair without asking permission. Lee Jae-heon clicked his tongue at that shameless act, but sat across from him. The long dining table that the survivors had brought out last time was still there.
The possessed person who was watching it muttered.
“It doesn’t seem like you’re in love with me at all.”
“Nam Isa.”
“…Is it because it’s definitely mixed up? “You’ve become soft, uncharacteristic of a leader.”
“….”
“Still, it seems different from the last time I saw you at the event. “What happened in the meantime?”
“I’m asking because you mentioned it.”
Lee Jae-heon asked, wiping the corners of his mouth.
“How much do you know?”
“Just about everything?”
“What did you do when you found out?”
“Do I kind of love you, Captain?”
“Huh.”
“You know that I love you, Captain. “I couldn’t miss anything related to it.”
Black pebble-like eyes stared into the air, as if recalling something.
“You know what…? “God has left.”
Those words reminded me of another possessed person I met in the other side of the world. It was only towards the end that I vaguely remembered what kind of relationship I had in my past life as a guy possessed in the body of an adult man. His mind and body were strained to their limits, and he spoke in gibberish and said, ‘God has abandoned us.’
Jaeheon Lee slowly lowered his head.
“I heard it.”
“Seeing as the captain knows that… I guess some of those who disappeared from our side were reborn as possessors here. That’s right, God really left. “The ‘story’ he wanted was over.”
“story.”
“Captain, you probably guessed that the fate we were given was all for that ‘story’. is not it? “Did you forget this too?”
“Please continue speaking.”
“great. “I’m happy that the captain is finally relying on me.”
Lee Jae-heon was disgusted by the possessed person’s face, which turned pink as if it were not just empty words. I still couldn’t remember the names or the big incidents, so I couldn’t organize them in my head, but I did remember one junior who was always doing perverted things with that shy expression.
‘It’s not for nothing that I felt a sense of déjà vu from the first time I saw it.’
Even though I’m in a completely different body, I can recognize it right away. At this point, I had to reconsider the value of that guy’s persistent flirting.
“A disgusting face is sexy. Ah, please despise me. “It’s better if you step on it.”
“Please don’t do this with grown adults….”
“Isn’t this what grown adults do with each other?”
“That’s true in a way, but I’m tired, so let’s do our best.”
“Well, it’s gone too far from the main point. “I’m so excited to see you in private for the first time in a long time.”
“Let’s talk a little less.”
“Yes, Captain.”
The possessed person smiled shyly once again and continued the sentence he had left off earlier.
“I don’t know where to start to explain… Shall I explain after the captain’s death?”
“If it’s okay with you.”
“First of all, you remembered that your son was possessed by the manager, right? “Why is it so long after the captain killed his wife?”
“….”
I looked back on my memories.
“…I think it was right after my son turned 20.”
The manager, who had been possessed by the body of a poisonous snake even after killing his wife, escaped from that body and moved to his son shortly after the child became an adult. Since that day, I had no interaction with my children, so I didn’t even find out about that until a long time later.
“yes that’s right. “The captain was also killed by the manager who possessed his son.”
“I remember roughly.”
The manager said that his son received ‘fate’ before he was possessed. I heard that if you tried to rebel against that ‘fate’, you ended up like a poisonous snake. It was said that the manager had possessed me, but because the manager had left my body as I was moving into my son’s body, I thought it was a poisonous snake that day.
The administrator’s possession clouds the mind of the main body. Just because he was possessed didn’t mean the soul inside him would disappear, so he was seeing all of the manager’s actions in some part of his subconscious, but he didn’t even have any questions. Then, as soon as the manager left his body, consciousness returned. Should I say that my sense of reality has returned? In that one moment, I realized what I was like, but it was strange if I didn’t go crazy.
He didn’t even build a grave for his wife. This was because he could not think of anything while the manager was possessed, and the manager also did not make a grave for his wife with the body of a poisonous snake.
‘Even thinking about it now makes me crazy.’
But everything has already gone wrong. The only thing left for the poisonous snake was to follow its remaining ‘fate’. This refers to an act that goes against the good-natured main character, interferes with everything, does unethical things without hesitation, and occasionally smiles sinisterly at the main character. Since he had a nasty and selfish personality anyway, the role of a villain suited him quite well.
“I think I was pierced by a spear or something several times.”
“Don’t you remember being poisoned?”
“I remember it, but I didn’t need to mention it, so I omitted it. “Because that wasn’t something I did with my son’s body.”
“It’s just that I didn’t do it myself, but it was done by the managers…?”
“If you think about it that way, shouldn’t we also be talking about things that are sliced and roasted? “I don’t want to bother explaining everything.”
“You’ve had an eventful time. “For some reason, the body wasn’t healthy.”
“You even thought of touching a corpse like that…”
“Do you think I love you just by looking at your face? “Please don’t ignore my love.”
“Okay, so let’s not keep leaking to the side.”
“Oh, this is really unfair…”
The possessed person continued while wheezing.
“Anyway, when he passed away like that, the manager went on a rampage inside my son’s body. I don’t have as much authority as you, so I don’t know the exact circumstances. But I know that the manager joined hands with God and did this and that… and eventually the ‘story’ came to an end.”
“What was the story?”
“…A story about an editor who is possessed by an evil government and the son of a mid-boss villain father who follows him, and saves the world?”
“What bullshit.”
“Right.”
Two strangers shared each other’s absurdity in an unfamiliar world. It seems like a pretty good summary, but Lee Jae-heon couldn’t understand what the possessed person said, and the possessed person was dumbfounded even after he summarized it.
The possessed person laughed with a liberated face.
“Oh, but this is real. Is this the conclusion I came up with after running here and there? What should we say about our story? Should we call it revolutionary? It was something like that. “It’s a story about a leader and his son becoming the focal point and changing the world.”
Lee Jae-heon also laughed helplessly.
“So the main character of our story was….”
“It was your son.”
“Huh.”
“To be exact, pretending to be an editor possessing that body…? “The manager.”
“This is rubbish.”
“I admit it, Captain. “To be honest, who would watch a story like this?”
“Even if you pay me to read it, I won’t read it.”
The two pieces giggled as they insulted the ‘God’ who had composed their ‘story’. It was both unbelievable and mysterious that they had gone through all this trouble for such a piece of work.
“What on earth is this guy called God capable of doing on such a large scale?”
“Oh, that…”
In response to Lee Jae-heon’s question about God, the possessed person blinked as if he knew something.
“I’ll explain that later. “I think it will be more confusing if I tell you now.”
“You even knew that? Why are you so sincere? “You weren’t this kind of bastard.”
“If I can win the captain, this level of effort is not effort.”
“Please stop.”
“I will refrain.”
The possessed person cleared his throat and continued his explanation.
“After the story ended like that, I think you probably already heard it from someone else… but God has abandoned us. In a world that revolved around one god, when God disappeared, the government also became meaningless. As the government loses power, all the powerful people working under it fall away…”
“It must be a mess.”
“What a mess? Rather, it was hell. There was no uproar or anything like that. Unlike us, who could take care of our own bodies, ordinary people who were not given a destiny ran even wilder. Even if you are given destiny, the world is still confusing in one way or another. “You could say that it was all messed up from start to finish just because one scene disappeared.”
“Then…”
“Ah. All of my children survived. “It’s the main character and his followers.”
“….”
“I don’t know if I would be lucky to survive in such a world?”
The existence of a manager capable of possession was a top secret known only to those who needed to know. It is said that the son, who never thought that his father would have been manipulated by him and killed his mother, hated him all along, but was taken over by the manager and lived according to his will without any questions before being liberated.
The feeling of the manager leaving my body, where all the questions I had never thought to think of until now came to mind and were resolved at once, remained a powerful memory that even the poisonous snake could not forget.
‘…It must be harder to stay sane.’
Jaeheon Lee sighed deeply.
“Don’t talk so sweetly. Why are you bothering me even more when I’m already boiling inside? “Do you really want to see my angry face like that?”
“Yes, seeing you get angry with that face makes it twice as thrilling. “It’s really my taste.”
“You pervert.”
“Please step on my lower jaw just once…!”
“Get away from me. “No, after the explanation, go away.”
“The sensitive captain is also lovely.”
“Love….”
The nausea rose and barely went down. Let’s calm down. The other person is a pervert. Besides, if they had asked me this kind of valuable information, I could have ignored the psychological impact.
“…So what’s next?”
“The next one will finally be my story! “Everything I’ve said so far is an explanation of how our original world came to be, and what follows is my full-fledged experience.”
“Why do you look so happy?”
“I’m shocked that the captain listens to my story with such seriousness.”
“Oh, I see.”
“My beginning begins after the story ends. I thought it was strange that familiar faces kept disappearing somewhere. “The manager was also missing and I thought something big was happening so I looked around.”
“Hmm.”
“Other than the one your son founded, there is a rebel group that your junior was a member of before.”
“He was also your junior?”
“I have never had a junior like that. Anyway, it seemed like they were scattering here and there in search of the ‘death’ that had been created there, but even taking that into account, there were a few empty seats. “My goal was to find out what happened.”
Lee Jae-heon, who was quietly looking at that face, rested his chin and asked with a grin.
“I wasn’t there for that purpose?”
“…don’t flirt. Wow, I almost lost my mind.”
“Funny bastard.”
“That face is too much for my taste, so it’s dangerous. “I will tell all of this to my wife.”
“Are you telling me that because I made fun of you?”
“A married man with three children seduces his subordinates? “Isn’t this a pretty provocative headline?”
“Uh-huh, you’re threatening your boss.”
“I love that sly captain too. Since I was like this, I tried to do something with the corpse…”
Lee Jae-heon looked at me with a straight face.
“That’s crossing the line. “Do you have necrophilia?”
“I don’t particularly lust after all the corpses in the world. “Only on the captain’s body…”
“That’s it. “Let’s take a look at the total number of users.”
“Isn’t it already too late? “Since when has this been the price for all users?”
Although grumbling, the possessed person steadily kept his mouth shut. Even though he was a pervert who crossed the line, he listened to me very well even in his past life. The problem was that he carried out things other than orders, but he had outstanding abilities. Lee Jae-heon looked at the possessed person with a different face than before with a confused look on his face.
“…If things continue like this, strange remarks will continue to come in, so let’s get to the point. It’s been leaking sideways since a while ago. How did you end up here? Do you know anything about the meaning of this world’s existence or the direction in which it is heading?”
“I was going to say that.”
“Tell me.”
“Do you remember what your power was?”
Jaeheon Lee blinked his eyes slowly.
“Isn’t it theft?”
I understand that it is the power to secretly rob others of their abilities. If you are caught in the middle, you will not be able to completely retrieve the ability, but if the opponent does not notice that the ability is being taken away, complete theft is possible. If you are stolen like that, the opponent will not be able to use his ability at all.
The possessed person asked him.
“Do you know that he stole God’s power?”
“What dude?”
“Do you know that this 19-year-old impoverished survival novel was created with that stolen power?”
“What…”
“This world and our world were just fiction.”
“….”
“So the writer who was called God was nothing more than a writer from another world…”
Pebble-like eyes look at Lee Jae-heon.
“Did you know?”
