I’m not a Regressor

I am not a regressor Episode 434

Lie (7)

I knew it.

The point is that you can’t defeat the Heavenly Demon in a head-on fight anyway.

No matter how much you say you are a Black Heaven with a higher ‘status’ compared to a Heavenly Demon.

It was impossible to surpass the skill of the Heavenly Demon, who had been with Black Heaven for dozens, hundreds… perhaps more years.

‘No matter how talented I am.’

No matter how desperately you tried.

No matter how desperately you struggled.

‘The path I have walked.’

Because you would have walked too.

‘therefore.’

Can’t win.

There is no way we can win.

As for ‘head-on competition’.

‘In order to win the fight against him, you have to take a path that he has not taken.’

A path I would never have taken if I had been ‘misdiagnosed’ in my past life.

There was no way to win the fight against the Heavenly Demon except by walking.

In order to do that….

* * *

We’ll have to continue this damn play a little longer.

“stop.”

Ha-eun blocked the Heavenly Demon as it approached Cassia and Isabella Riak, who were tied up in the Black Heaven.

She looked with sad eyes at the Heavenly Demon, who had taken the form of a black cloud, and gently bit her lip.

“Now… please stop.”

Ha-eun begs with a trembling voice.

Cheonma looked at Ha-eun carefully and shook her head softly.

“Get out of the way, sister.”

“Please stop! “If you’ve done this much, it’s enough!”

“…is that enough?”

A laugh flowed from the Heavenly Demon’s mouth.

“What is enough?”

“You fought Ohjin and won! “You trampled on the child as much as you wanted right before he died!”

Oh Jin is lying on the floor, breathing heavily.

Even at a glance, his condition, which had been engulfed by the Heavenly Demon’s Black Sky, seemed to be in danger.

So much so that I can’t even think about continuing the fight.

What more are you going to do in a situation where the winner and loser are already clearly decided?

“It doesn’t end when you kill the awakened people tied up in the dark clouds over there!”

“no.”

The Heavenly Demon shook his head resolutely.

“As long as there is anything precious left in him, he will never be able to protect his sister.”

As a result of failing to extinguish the Black Sky.

Soon, he will be completely engulfed in the black sky and run wild.

At that time, in order to save Ha-eun from the runaway black sky, it was necessary to take away all of Oh-jin’s ‘precious things’.

“Only then can I protect my sister.”

“Even without that, Ojin has protected me until now! “And how many times!”

He shouted fiercely.

“Bella, Riak, Cassia… and the other awakened ones… have all been fighting to protect them.”

Oh Jin has a habit of saying that he is a fraudster who only knows how to ruin other people’s backs.

she knew

Oh Jin doesn’t just lie to take advantage of others.

“You… do you know what happened to Uncle Baek Mu-gang? “What did Oh Jin do then?”

“I don’t know.”

“You don’t know that your subordinate did it?”

“…My subordinate?”

The Heavenly Demon frowned as if he couldn’t understand.

“Did I have a subordinate?”

“….”

Ha-eun’s expression hardened.

It was not his tone of voice that he did not acknowledge Deimos, the Majin official who stole Baekmugang’s ‘treasure’, as his subordinate.

The way he speaks is as if he doesn’t know if he really has a subordinate.

okay.

“You… forgot everything.”

It’s not just about Deimos.

The Demon Race, who until now had revered and followed the being called the ‘Heavenly Demon’… had completely forgotten the existence of the Black Star Constellations.

“I guess it wasn’t that important.”

The Heavenly Demon calmly shrugged his shoulders and touched his heart, which was pulsating through the dark clouds.

“don’t worry. “Because I keep all my memories of my sister.”

“….”

I forgot everything except the memory of myself.

Even the warm heart and kindness hidden under the mask of lies have been cut out.

He looks like a doll filled with cotton balls instead of flesh.

“Is that… what you want from Ojin?”

“okay.”

Cheonma nodded quietly and walked past Ha-eun.

“If I have to do this to save my sister… I can give up as much as I want.”

“stop.”

“I know it’s hard to accept. “Unlike me, my sister is a kind person who doesn’t know how to deceive others.”

“Stop.”

“There is no need to be sad. “I’m probably thinking the same thing over there.”

“I told you to stop, Kwon Oh-jin!!!”

Stand tall.

The Heavenly Demon’s steps stopped.

His eyes, which were burning with an eerie blue glow, trembled slightly.

Ohjin Kwon.

The name that Ha-eun abandoned when she died and decided to become Cheonma.

When I heard the name that I thought would never be called from her mouth again, my entire body, except for my heart, heated up.

My heart is pounding.

My heart was pulsing wildly, as if trying to drive away a dark cloud.

“You too… you too have the same ‘misdiagnosis’.”

Although the fate of the two people changed.

There was no change in the fact that it was also a ‘misdiagnosis’.

“Why should I take something precious from you? You, me, and Oh Jin! “Why do I have to do something that will make no one happy?”

“….”

“Answer me!”

The Heavenly Demon quietly closed her eyes at her scream-like cry.

ha.

A deep sigh escaped from between lips that had turned into black clouds.

“No one will know. And the ‘me’ over there.”

How painful and painful it is to lose something precious.

How terrible it is to be left alone.

They won’t know.

“Soon my entire consciousness will be swallowed up by the Black Sky.”

“….”

“And I will become a monster whose only desire is to eat the stars.”

It was a fate that had already been decided.

A fate that cannot be prevented or stopped.

“Before that happens….”

“Suicide is meaningless. “Just because I die doesn’t mean the dark sky inside me disappears.”

“Oh no. “I’m not saying you should commit suicide.”

“why? Like I said earlier, do you want to tell me to join forces with ‘me’ over there and find a way to fight against the Black Sky?”

“…huh.”

“It’s no use.”

It’s already too late to turn back.

From the time he used the stream… no, even before that, he had already crossed a river that he could not return from.

“When that time comes, ‘I’ will have to make a choice.”

Are you giving up?

Don’t you give up?

“The more you have… the harder it will be to give up.”

And if you don’t give up.

There was no way to stop himself from becoming a monster.

“So you’re saying you’re going to take it away with your own hands before then? So that I can give up easily?”

“You can blame me. “It’s okay to criticize and curse.”

The Cheonma left Ha-eun behind and approached the awakened people caught in the dark clouds.

“As long as I can protect my sister… it doesn’t matter what else happens.”

When he slowly raised his hand and tried to make a fist as if grasping the air.

“Oh Jin.”

Ha-eun ran after him and hugged Cheonma.

“It must have been hard… alone.”

I don’t know what his past life was like.

I don’t know how long ago he went back in time.

but.

One thing was clear.

“Alone… it must have been very painful and lonely.”

Until he gave up the name ‘Ojin’ and became Cheonma.

How long would I have had to endure loneliness?

Would I have had to endure the pain of nausea just imagining it?

“…Let’s stop now.”

Convince Cheonma once again.

“If it’s a misdiagnosis, we can overcome it without having to kill those people.”

Even if Black Heaven eats all of Heavenly Demon’s consciousness and turns him into a monster.

If it is a misdiagnosis, it can be prevented.

“…sister.”

“You… there’s no need for you to take on this role.”

Does that mean we want to see the same ‘misdiagnosis’ suffering?

Do you want to become an object of resentment and hatred towards yourself?

“There must be another way.”

Cheonma, Ojin, and himself.

There must be a way for everyone not to be sad.

“….”

Cheonma gently closed her eyes while stroking the back of Ha-eun, who was hugging her.

and.

“Puhup.”

Laughter leaking from between lips.

“Puhup puhahaha! Hahahahaha!”

Laughter, which went from laughter to laughter, rang out.

“Oh, Oh Jin?”

Ha-eun fell from Cheonma with a puzzled expression.

Cheonma roughly grabbed Ha-eun’s neck as she tried to walk away.

“Wow! “Wow!”

A moan full of pain came out of Ha-eun’s mouth.

Cheonma raised the corners of her mouth as if she were frowning and glared at Ha-eun, who was struggling.

“I was wondering what you had prepared and it was just something like this?”

“Big… Wow!”

“Did you think you could fool me with something like this?”

Coo!

He stamped his feet roughly and added strength to the hand that was gripping Ha-eun’s neck.

“Oh Oh Jin-ah, why….”

“It’s not ‘Oh Jin-ah’!!!!!”

I cried out like a cry.

“My sister doesn’t call me that.”

I remember.

meeting her.

Memories with her.

Even if I become a miserable figure with only my heart left.

How could I forget?

“It’s not Oh Jin-ah… It’s Oji-na, right?”

Knowing that she had a complex about the name ‘Ojin’, which she inherited from parents whose faces she did not even know, she deliberately called him by his name in a slurred manner.

I said Ojina.

If other people hear it, they’ll probably laugh at it and ask what the difference is.

He knows.

How much of a salvation that ‘just’ was for him.

How much hope her small consideration gave to a 9-year-old boy who was worried about nothing like his name.

Even if no one knows.

Even if no one sympathizes with me.

I know.

As you know.

“Why did you think I would be fooled if you pretended to be my sister? “Did you think that if I treated you a little kindly, you would follow my advice and say it was right?”

Cheonma gritted his teeth and glared at Ha-eun… or rather, ‘Oh Jin’ in front of him.

“Don’t be mistaken, kid.”

you also.

me too.

“It’s the same ‘misdiagnosis.’”

Did you really think you could fool me?
