I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 425

Interlude – Escape (2)

“Sanctuary…”

A low exclamation flowed from Ojin’s lips.

okay.

It was a sanctuary.

“…I guess you expected it.”

That the Constellations will break the law, break the rules, and develop a ministry to protect humans.

Leave behind the regrets of the past and take a great step toward the future.

He had expected it all.

no.

It is awkward to express this as ‘expectation’.

Rather than what I expected.

“I guess ‘I knew’ would be a more accurate expression, right?”

okay.

I knew it.

Because, unlike Ojin, the Heavenly Demon in front of me was really a returnee who went back in time.

Even if I lost a lot in return.

As he assured, he did not forget the ‘most important thing’.

Rather, by cutting away unnecessary memories, I prepared a sharper and sharper shot.

“When I got hit before, it was really close. Well, in the end, I took my time and won.”

The Heavenly Demon looked at the sanctuary spread out by the constellations and shrugged his shoulders slyly.

“Going through that kind of trouble once is enough, right?”

[At best…]

Vega’s golden eyes blazed like a fire.

[Are you saying they used Mobius for just that reason?!!!]

A ferocious scolding broke out.

The image of Moebius screaming while clutching an ugly apple necklace came to mind.

To use that bottomless despair, a tragedy so cruel, as if it were a tool.

“Using it? “When are you saying I used Mobius?”

[You were the one manipulating this situation from behind!]

“No, no. “It’s difficult for you to take your anger out on the wrong person, goddess.”

The Heavenly Demon burst into laughter and shook his head.

“I didn’t do anything. Attacking Italy and provoking the Awakened, turning the Black Star Constellations into puppets and starting a war with you were all Moebius’s will?”

[This wouldn’t have happened if you had saved the child of Moebius!]

“It wouldn’t have happened even if the constellations hadn’t turned away the child at that time.”

[That is…]

“It was you, the constellations, who made Moebius like that, not me. right?”

[….]

Vega narrowed her eyes at the sight of the Heavenly Demon calmly shrugging her shoulders as if she had done nothing wrong.

[…It’s definitely different.]

Even though he had the same appearance as Ojin, it was hard to tell from the outside.

Could know.

I could feel it.

The ‘Cheonma’ in front of me and Oh Jin are completely different people.

“Well, maybe your child would have done the same thing as me?”

[Bullshit.]

Oh Jin also often shows himself deceiving and using others for his own gain.

There was something decidedly different from Cheonma.

[Your child does not cowardly avoid responsibility like you do.]

“Isn’t it a bit funny to blame a cheater?”

[Do not mock your child with that dirty tongue.] A

brilliant silver light emanated from Vega’s whole body.

[How can you understand the pain of the one who carries it?]

Ojin…her proud child continued to move forward without stopping even though he was weighed down by the heavy responsibility and pressure of being a star in the sky.

I keep going without even thinking about lightening the burden on my back.

How dare someone like the Heavenly Demon ridicule the will that deserves respect?

“Haha, you’ve done everything. “You used to be a bit more blunt.”

The Heavenly Demon chuckled and shook his head.

[Well, dealing with a pathetic person like you, wouldn’t it have been natural for you to become blunt?]

“Oh, this hurts my pride a little?”

[You and Oh Jin are strangers with no connection whatsoever, so there is no reason to be proud.]

“…But isn’t it a bit too much to say that there is no connection whatsoever?”

First of all, I am also in the same ‘misdiagnosis’ situation.

The Cheonma grumbled and grumbled as if it was absurd.

[Hmph, these are the words of the child’s mother, the original woman.]

“Ha, if someone hears it, will they know if it’s really a blood-related child?”

[Aren’t stigmata connected instead of blood?]

“Wasn’t there something else besides stigmata connected?”

[Chuck. Isn’t this all ‘motherly love’?]

“I think there is a social agreement to call it a different word…”

It’s a bit of a word for me to say.

[I guess I’ve had enough nonsense.]

The silver wave created by Vega shot towards the Heavenly Demon.

In response to her attack, other constellations also exerted their sanctuaries by squeezing out their remaining power.

but.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The black flame created by the Heavenly Demon so easily destroyed the sanctuary spread by the constellations.

[Ugh…!]

[Ugh!]

[Vega… No more…!]

The black flame created by the Heavenly Demon was not powerful enough to overwhelm dozens of sanctuaries.

Nevertheless, why was the attack blocked so vainly?

[Ha ha ha… No way.] This

was because the constellations that were carrying out their ministry while resisting the restrictions of the law had come to a limit.

Wooooow.

The sanctuary that the constellations had expanded gradually began to shrink in size like a deflated balloon.

[Still a little more…]

Vega gritted his teeth and tried desperately to maintain sanctuary.

“It’s no use. No matter how weakened the restrictions of the law are, the constellations cannot escape the shackles created by the giant of creation.”

The Heavenly Demon smiled bitterly and shook his head.

“There are things in this world that cannot be accomplished with will alone, Goddess.”

[Ugh… Haa haa!]

The sanctuary that Vega had developed lost its light, and her body gradually began to fade.

Reverse summons to the sanctuary.

The time we can remain on Earth has come to an end.

[I’m sorry, my child. But soon…]

“Soon? What is it soon?”

Before Vega could finish her words, her body disappeared into thin air.

Starting with Vega, the constellations were summoned one by one to the sanctuary.

A cold silence fell on the battlefield where all the constellations had disappeared.

Ha-eun stamped her feet and chewed her lip with a nervous expression.

“Ojina this… I think it’s fucked up?”

“….”

The situation is the worst.

All the constellations that could be said to be the last bastions were summoned back to the sanctuary.

All of the awakened people were in a semi-fainting state due to the battle with the Black Star Constellations.

Ojin himself only barely regained consciousness, but the aftereffects of developing ‘Galaxy’ in a human body still remained.

‘Everyone is in no condition to fight.’

Immediately after fighting the tens of thousands of demonic beasts that covered the city, there was a series of battles with the Black Star Constellations and Mobius, who even used the stream.

In terms of soccer, it’s like playing three 90-minute full-time games in a row without a break, but out of nowhere, it’s like a thousand horses.

“Let’s jump.”

His stamina and energy were so low that he didn’t know if he could even fight and win, let alone the Heavenly Demon, even the 1-star monster Enthorn.

There was no other way than to run away.

“Where are you going to run away?”

“Sanctuary.”

Although Ojin himself does not know the condition of the constellations that were back-summoned to the sanctuary.

No matter how heavenly demons are, they will not be able to directly enter the sanctuary, which can be said to be the realm of the constellations.

Because there, all the ‘shackles’ that bind the constellations will be loosened.

‘If I hadn’t been wary of the constellations in the first place, I wouldn’t have tricked Moebius into using Sanctuary.’

Right now, the only safe place from the Heavenly Demon was the sanctuary.

“Even if I run away… will the Heavenly Demon stay still?”

Isabella gently bit her lip and looked at the Heavenly Demon.

The Heavenly Demon was staring at them with his arms crossed and a relaxed expression.

He had a relaxed attitude, as if he could easily catch you guys whenever he wanted.

but.

All of the awakened people gathered here are as exhausted as dried squid, so it would be natural for them to relax like that.

‘Someone needs to tie his feet.’

But who?

Who can dare to hold the Heavenly Demon’s feet?

“I will do it.”

Cassia took a step forward with determined eyes.

“no. “You’re tired too.”

“Hehe. Just holding your feet is enough, right?”

It’s a lie.

Although she was shrugging her shoulders, pretending to be relaxed, Cassia’s face had already turned pitifully pale.

‘It’s not unreasonable.’

Not only Cassia but all the awakened people here were so exhausted that it wouldn’t have been surprising if they fell unconscious right away.

‘It’s impossible to even hold his feet like this.’

There is only one card left for Oh Jin now.

There was only ‘a stream’.

‘But if I use Gaecheon in my current state….’

Maybe.

This time, I might forget ‘all’ memories.

Not a single thing is left behind.

Without a single ounce of room.

Everything completely.

It might disappear.

“….”

Ojin chewed his lip until blood leaked out.

I felt my legs shaking from a distant fear.

“Damn it…”

I closed my eyes tightly and suppressed the rising fear.

but.

but.

but.

‘scared.’

I don’t want to forget.

I don’t want to lose it.

How the fuck have I been living?

The emotion when I first met my sister on the rooftop of the orphanage, the thrill when I received the stigmata from Vega, the intensity when I met Riak, the absurdity when I found out Isabella’s identity, and the fear when I was caught by Cassia.

Everything, everything, everything.

It’s a memory I don’t want to forget.

“I… how.”

When I lowered my head and clenched my fists.

“Why are you procrastinating like that again? bantling.”

A familiar voice was heard.

“…Riak?”

When preparing for war against Moebius in the sanctuary.

Vega said that since he had given special orders to Riak, it would be difficult for him to participate in the war right away.

It was a very busy situation at the time, and like the Constellations, Riak was also restricted by the law, so I decided that there would be no major power loss anyway, so I answered that I knew and then completely forgot about it.

“Hmph, I thought I’d become more like a warrior now, but I still have a long way to go.”

“Krrr. Don’t say that ‘Khan’. “Isn’t he the hero who saved our clan?”

“I would have said I was no longer ‘Khan’?”

Riak wasn’t the only one who suddenly appeared.

Beastman warriors lined up behind Riak.

At the forefront was Leoru Khan, who had become the new ‘Khan’ after Riak, standing bravely.

“purr!”

Poppy approached, snorting, clicking her beak and flapping her wings.

“You guys…”

“I came across the veil right away after hearing the news from Earth, but it seems a little late.”

Kelion, an elder of the dragon race, walking with a cane.

Behind him, dragon wizards were in formation, pointing their staffs at the Heavenly Demon.

When they found Ha-eun standing next to Oh-jin, their eyes sparkled.

“Sorry for being late, miko!”

“damn… “I can’t believe the shaman arrived in such rags!”

“We are bastards who have no right to call Ha-eun ‘shaman’!”

The Yongin people begin to shed tears as they look at Ha-eun, who has traces of a fierce battle left all over her body.

“Dragon Maiden! “We are here!”

“We will hold the Heavenly Demon’s feet, Dragon Maiden!”

The Yongin people shouted loudly, using the title they had originally called her instead of ‘shaman’.

Among them, one of the wise Yongin people raised a question.

“Ah, but didn’t you say last time that you weren’t a virgin?”

“iced coffee! “You definitely said that!”

“Yes, that’s right! “I forgot about that! Ha-eun wasn’t a virgin!”

The muttering voices of the dragon race echoed throughout the silent battlefield.

The eyes of the awakened people instantly focused on Ha-eun.

“No, wait.”

Ha-eun’s face turned pale as she received the attention of the people around her.

“Sorry for the misunderstanding!”

“shut up.”

“From now on, I will correct it and call you ‘Dragon’s Reflection Girl’!”

“Shut up.”

“‘Dragon Rain Maiden’, we are here to help!”

“Hey you fucking bastards.”

Please shut up your mouth.
