I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 436

Lie (9)

A pillar of black clouds soaring into the sky.

The sun-drenched blue sky suddenly began to darken, as if black ink had been spilled.

“What is that?”

“Heukcheon is running wild.”

The heart that contained the consciousness of the last remaining Heavenly Demon.

As its heart was pierced and destroyed by the spear, all of the Heavenly Demon’s consciousness sank into the dark clouds of the Black Sky.

Rumbling!

Black storm clouds swaying wildly.

What was there was no longer the Heavenly Demon.

‘Heukcheon.’

It is a darkness born from the beginning and a mass of distant power made up of only the desire to devour all the stars in the world.

Oh Jin doesn’t know why such power came to him and the Heavenly Demon.

I don’t even know when it first took root in my heart.

But one thing is certain.

‘When the consciousness of the Heavenly Demon disappears and the Dark Heaven runs wild, this world will be destroyed according to Polaris’ prophecy.’

In front of that dark cloud full of greed, even Ha-eun, whom the Cheonma wanted to protect so much, would be nothing more than prey.

‘In order to stop the runaway black sky…’

Ojin gently closed his eyes and let out a deep sigh.

You already know how.

Because I heard it directly from the owner of the rampaging Black Sky.

‘You can only stop it if you give up.’

This is true.

Isn’t this an incredibly ironic thing?

I fought so desperately not to lose any of the happiness I held in my hands.

In the end, you have to give up everything to protect those in your hands.

“…You knew everything.”

How difficult it is to give up.

Is it painful and painful?

He knew it all.

Because I knew that, I tried to make it ‘easy to give up’.

“ha ha ha.”

A dry laugh leaked from between Oh Jin’s lips.

at that time.

Ha-eun’s urgent voice was heard from far away.

“Oh Oh Jin, what are you idly doing? “Let’s quickly take the kids and run away!”

Ha-eun rushed over and grabbed Oh-jin’s arm.

“I told you this before you came here! If the Heavenly Demon’s Black Heaven begins to run wild, I will run away to the sanctuary and see if I have another chance!”

okay.

I definitely remember saying something like that.

Although most of the constellations are under ‘restrictions’ due to the last war, there is still no safer place than the sanctuary where the constellations can express their full power.

“sister.”

“Move quickly because we don’t have time to take the other kids too!”

“…sister.”

“Don’t just stay here, move quickly!”

Ha-eun pulled his arm roughly and shouted fiercely.

Her expression is somewhat filled with anxiety.

maybe.

Ha-eun must be feeling this as well.

“You… you’re not trying to tell me that you’re going to be left alone here, are you?”

“….”

Oh Jin smiles without saying a word.

Ha-eun’s expression hardened.

“You said it yourself first, let’s run away! huh? “You promised me!!!”

“sorry.”

Oh Jin gently stroked Ha Eun’s cheek, which was shedding tears.

“It was a lie.”

“…ah.”

A low moan flowed from between Ha-eun’s lips.

“You, you bastard…!”

She approached with unsteady steps and roughly grabbed Ojin by the collar.

“You know very well what will happen if you stop that!”

Didn’t the Heavenly Demon tell us directly?

What should we do to stop the runaway Black River?

What should I give up?

“…Yes, I know.”

I probably won’t be able to return to my current ‘misdiagnosis’ again.

All memories sink into black clouds.

Only an empty shell will remain.

“Then why! Why do you want to stay here?!”

“Because I am a star in the sky.”

Because he is the only one who can change his fate.

“This is what I have to do.”

This is something only I can do.

“…no.”

Ha-eun grabbed Oh-jin’s collar and shook her head.

“I hate it, I hate it! What on earth is a star in the sky? “Other awakened people and constellations are alive and well, so why do you have to sacrifice yourself?”

“sister.”

“Do you really know what it means to lose all your memories? Memories of meeting at our orphanage, memories of living together, memories of me losing my eyes due to a curse, and memories of you getting them back! “You’ll forget everything!”

“….”

Know.

There’s no way you wouldn’t know.

What does it mean to lose your memory?

What does it mean for memories to disappear?

‘You’ll… forget everything.’

Things that happened with Ha-eun.

What happened with Vega, Isabella, and Cassia.

Memories of countless people I have met so far.

Quarreling, making up, fighting, forgiving, sad, happy, hating, loving.

happy.

Memories of being ‘misdiagnosed’.

It will disappear without leaving anything behind.

‘scared.’

All traces of the past life are erased.

The whole path I walked is falling apart.

So unbearable. So unbearable.

I felt like I was going crazy with fear.

-Are you the new kid here?

Suddenly.

I remembered the first time I met Ha-eun.

The rooftop of the orphanage where you ran away from the director… no, from everything in the world.

To the secret base of a small and unsightly kid.

Something a girl stepped on.

-Let’s see… If it’s a secret base, they won’t let just anyone in, right?

-Yes. Even if Mom and Dad come, they won’t let us in. never.

The little boy, abandoned by his parents and left alone in the world, was rejecting everything that came his way with thorns erected like a hedgehog.

-Then what about your sister?

-…uh?

-Are you going to let your sister in?

I remember.

The image of a girl with a smile as beautiful as the starlight in the night sky.

-Sister…?

-Because I’m two years older!

-….

-Even if you can’t be mom and dad, you can still be a sister, right?

-uh? Uh huh.

It’s unsightly.

insignificant.

Memories of childhood.

-lol. Now that I’m here, I have to keep calling you noona from now on?

Now that I think about it, it probably didn’t have any special meaning.

Just kidding.

It was probably just a joke thrown out in passing.

“…under.”

A smile escaped between my lips.

Oh Jin looked at Ha-eun, who was shedding tears, and asked.

“By the way, sister, do you remember when we first met?”

“Huh… when we first met?”

“huh. Why did we meet on the rooftop of the orphanage? Do you remember what we said back then?”

“Uh… that thing.”

Ha-eun stuttered with a puzzled expression.

Oh Jin had a faint smile on his face as he looked at Ha Eun who was embarrassed.

Know.

The reason she doesn’t remember the conversation she had when she first met him.

It wasn’t that she had a poor memory or that she didn’t value meeting him.

Doesn’t everyone remember every single thing that happened in the past?

Although it is naturally forgotten and erased with the passage of time.

What happened doesn’t mean it never happened.

‘Just like the world doesn’t disappear when you close your eyes.’

Although Ha-eun doesn’t remember the conversation she had that day.

Oh Jin still remembers it clearly.

“Mr. “How important is that in the current situation?”

“It’s important.”

“So what on earth… ugh!”

He hugged Ha-eun and kissed her deeply.

“What’s going on all of a sudden?”

“are you okay.”

“…What do you mean it’s okay?”

“It’s okay to forget everything.”

okay.

It was something there was no need to worry about in the first place.

“What are you talking about?”

“The things I talked to my sister about that day. “I remember everything.”

Every single one.

I remember it.

I haven’t forgotten.

“therefore.”

Even if you forget.

As I remembered.

“Even if I forget.”

You just have to remember.

Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Black clouds are rising.

The black sky cloud that occupied half of the body gradually expanded its area.

All that remains is a pulsating heart.

Ojin’s entire body became a black cloud.

“Oh Ojina….”

“Then I’ll come back.”

I turned and walked towards the pillar of black clouds rising high in the sky.

Heukcheon is running rampant, swallowing up another ‘Ojin’ who has had a different fate than himself.

Take a step towards him.

Grumble, rumble, rumble!

As Ojin approached, the black clouds soaring high in the sky poured down like a waterfall.

The hungry beast, left only with desire and greed, bared its ferocious teeth at him.

The two black heavens became violently entangled and began to run wild to devour each other.

Rumbling!

The earth turns over and space is torn apart.

A huge shock beyond recognition engulfed the entire crack.

“Ugh…!”

The pendulum of victory, which had been tightly balanced, gradually swung towards the runaway Heukcheon.

The Black Heaven that swallowed Ojin’s body whole greedily ate his Black Heaven.

“Is this really what you meant?”

Considering the ‘level’ of Black Heaven, the misdiagnosis would be high.

That alone was not enough to stop the runaway black sky.

“under.”

A smile escaped Ojin’s lips.

Suddenly.

A question that the Heavenly Demon had asked him came to mind.

-How much can you give up?

If you can only win if you give up.

Isn’t there only one answer?

“ha.”

I slowly stretched out my hand and grabbed the heart that was pulsating among the dark clouds.

It’s different from the Heavenly Demon’s.

A heart engraved with the stigmata of Lyra.

Ohjin smiled brightly, clutching his heart.

“This is my answer.”

Crack.

My clenched heart burst out, and black clouds covered the sky.
