I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 320

Faded Promise (12)

Murmur.

After Yongshin’s death became known.

The Dragonian Kingdom, which had the atmosphere of a mourning house, became busier for the first time in a long time.

The main banquet hall was crowded with Yongin people who had gathered after hearing the news that there was an important announcement.

“Thank you everyone for coming together.”

Kelion, who stood on the podium, opened his mouth.

A low voice spread through a microphone with voice amplification magic and echoed throughout the banquet hall.

Tens of thousands of eyes were focused on Kelion.

“I’m sure you all know that this is a difficult time for all of us.”

A grand banquet hall filled with silence.

In the cold silence where not even a small murmur echoed, Kelion spoke softly.

“The reason I called you today is because the Dragon Maiden said she had something important to say to us.”

Kelion took a step back from the podium and turned around, like a host introducing a guest singer.

Ha-eun, who was waiting at the bottom of the podium, slowly walked up.

An expression that clearly shows signs of nervousness.

Ha-eun swallowed her dry saliva and stood in front of the microphone.

“Keukheuhum.”

I cleared my throat once.

“Not long ago, the soul of the dragon god Kaleios came to me… no, I was possessed.”

The eyes of the Yongin people were wide open.

I heard that the dragon god died without being able to wake up, but this was the first time I heard that the dragon god’s soul resided in the dragon maiden.

“I couldn’t hear the Dragon God’s voice at first. “After the spirit completely settled in me, I began to hear his voice little by little.”

“What is the voice of the Dragon God?”

“So you’re saying that the Dragon God’s soul hasn’t disappeared?!”

The shocking announcement caused a stir among the Yongin tribe.

“Be quiet.”

Kelion stepped forward and calmed the commotion.

Silence again.

Ha-eun opened her mouth, licking her dry lips with her tongue.

“He said he would like to speak with you for a moment.”

“Borrowing your body…”

“Is that possible?”

The dragon people’s eyes were colored with disbelief.

The dragon god, who I thought was going to die, but who actually died, suddenly says he wants to talk to me directly in the body of a human woman, so I can’t believe it.

Before Ha-eun’s disbelief grew further, she put her hands together as if praying.

“Then I will call him from now on.”

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

A hot fire began to burn around Ha-eun’s body.

The hot flames that enveloped her body took the form of giant wings and spread wide.

It looks like a dragon with its wings spread wide.

The Yongin tribe was instantly overwhelmed by the majestic sight of flame wings stretching tens of meters wide.

and.

[It’s been a long time.]

A voice rings solemnly.

“uh?”

“Ka Kalleios’ voice?”

“That’s ridiculous!”

Astonishment spread across the faces of the Yongin tribe, who were filled with disbelief.

The voice that came out of the mouth of the human woman who was said to have dragon eyes was clearly the same as the voice of the dragon god that remained in their memories.

“How on earth did this happen…”

Did the Dragon God really come to heaven through the body of a human woman?

When confusion grows in an unbelievable situation.

“Ah, Kaleios!”

Kelion, who was standing next to the podium, knelt down towards Ha-eun.

The old dragon trembled slightly and had an expression filled with emotion.

“I wanted to see you so… so much.”

A single tear runs down my wrinkled cheek.

The expressions of the Yongins, who were looking at each other and wondering what the situation was, began to change one by one.

It was none other than Kelion who knelt down and bowed his head.

The elder who led the dragon people while the dragon god was asleep recognized the dragon god’s soul, which was said to be residing in a human woman, as ‘real’.

The atmosphere of distrust that had built up so high suddenly began to collapse, as if a dam had burst.

“Ah…”

“Ka Kalleios!”

“It’s definitely true! “This is Kaleios’ voice!”

I’ve been eagerly waiting for it.

Even in faded memories, it remained indelible and clear.

The voice of Kaleios.

[I’ve kept you guys waiting for too long.]

I can hear you.

The voice of God that could not be reached.

“Ah uh.”

“Huhhhhh!”

“Kaleios!”

The Yongin people fell to their knees with tears in their eyes.

He used Ha-eun’s body to bow to the strong Kaleios.

[It breaks my heart to think about how much suffering you have endured over the past hundred years.]

A voice filled with sadness.

[And the pain… doesn’t seem to be over yet.]

Ha-eun turned her head and glanced at the Yongin tribe.

The appearance of the Yongin tribe, whose skin and bones are close to each other due to not eating properly.

They looked even more devastated than when the demons invaded the kingdom.

[Listen, my children.]

Ha-eun opened her mouth, looking at the Yongin people who bowed their heads.

No, to be exact, I opened my mouth.

The Dragon God’s voice that was currently echoing in the grand banquet hall was not made by her, but by Ohjin hiding behind the podium.

[Although my body has melted and disappeared, my soul and will remain here.]

“…Ah.”

“Dragon God….”

Tears flowed from the eyes of the dragon people who bowed their heads.

Dragon God Kaleios.

The news that the god they had been waiting for so anxiously was still alive instantly blew away the feelings of despair that had been encroaching on them.

“Kaleios…”

“Ah, this moment… I’ve been waiting for this moment all along!”

A pillar called ‘Hope’ rose in their collapsing hearts.

“Please take care of us again, Kaleios!”

One of the dragon people shouted.

Ha-eun shook her head at the Yongin who shouted and opened her mouth.

[With nothing but a soul left, I cannot take care of you like I used to.]

“That kind of thing.”

“Then what should we do now…”

The dragon people’s eyes trembled.

What should I do in the future without the care of the Dragon God?

“We need the Dragon God’s care!”

An urgent cry rang out.

[No, you no longer need my care.]

“That’s not true!”

“Without the Dragon God…”

[Didn’t you guys firmly protect the kingdom without me for the past hundred years?]

Even though the kingdom was taken over by the demons.

[You did not give up and fought against the demon race to protect your own home.]

They no longer needed ‘care’.

“That was because of the belief that the Dragon God would awaken…”

[Even that belief would not have come true if you had not moved.]

If you had not sacrificed your own lives to become bait.

The dragon maiden would not have been able to reach Lair so easily.

[The reason I can remain here as a soul is all thanks to your courageous fight.]

“…Kaleios.”

[Thank you.]

The Yongins all bowed their heads in unison at that sincere voice.

How could I not be thrilled?

The dragon god himself said ‘thank you’ to them, who were merely slaves born to serve the dragon.

[Don’t forget.]

The voice of a merciful god rang out.

[You are not slaves.]

The Dragon God’s answer to Kelion’s warning to run away in the past.

[I am the proud children of Kaleios.]

The voice of a god who cared for and loved the dragon people more than anyone else filled the hearts of the dragon people

. [It is an invaluable treasure.]

“Ah…” A low voice

came from the mouths of the dragon people. An exclamation flowed out.

A single tear flowed down my cheek.

[My children.]

Tens of meters of fire wings sprouted from Ha-eun’s back and flapped majestically.

[Do not be sad. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be lonely.]

An incredible heat filled the grand banquet hall.

[I, the dragon god Kaleios, will always be by your side.]

Grrrrrrrrrrr!

The flame that had been burning fiercely gradually died out.

The wings, which had spread out to tens of meters in size, returned to Ha-eun’s body.

“Ahhh.”

“Huh… black!”

The Yongin people shed tears as they recalled the words left by the Yongshin.

A long wait of a hundred years.

The warm consolation that came from the bottomless pit of despair lifted them up.

“Uh… I mean.”

Ha-eun continued speaking awkwardly, looking at the grand banquet hall soaked in tears.

“These were the words of the Dragon God.”

Wow!

A loud cheer erupted, loud enough to leave the main banquet hall.

Even though it was a borrowed human body.

The Yongin people cheered full of hope at the news that the god they thought was dead was still alive.

“Dragon Maiden…!”

“Oh no, shouldn’t I call you ‘shaman’ now?”

“That’s right!”

“Dragon shaman!”

“Thank you for listening to the words of the Dragon God!”

Ha-eun suddenly becomes a dragon shaman.

Ha-eun could not hide her embarrassed expression from the hot gaze pouring towards her.

“Miko!”

“Please let Kaleios’ voice be heard once again!”

Among them, some of the excited Yongins even tried to climb up onto the stage.

“Everyone calm down!”

Coo!

Kelion slammed his staff down and shouted at the excited dragons.

“Inviting the soul of a god directly into one’s body would be a great burden even for a shaman!”

“Ha, but.”

“Are you planning on losing the shaman as well?”

The excited atmosphere cooled down.

For them, who had already experienced the despair of the Dragon God’s death once, losing the shaman was an unimaginable disaster.

“I’m sorry.”

The Yongin people bowed their heads and looked at Ha-eun.

He looks like a loyal subject waiting for orders.

“Uh… So.”

Ha-eun smiled sheepishly, scratching her cheek as if feeling burdened by their gazes.

There was no information from Ohjin about what to do after this.

“Shall we repair the house first?”

The priority was to rebuild the kingdom that was in ruins due to the Majin attack.

“I will follow the shaman’s orders!”

A powerful answer echoed throughout the banquet hall.

Ha-eun burst into laughter as she saw the eyes of the Yongin people, who were like dead people who had lost their souls, regaining life.

“Good! “I’ll help too, so let’s start repairing it quickly!”

Ha-eun rolled up her arms and raised her fist vigorously.

Although she had other intentions of helping the dragon people.

“Oh no!”

“Miko, please rest!”

“We will do it!”

The Yongin people shook their heads with shocked expressions.

“Huh? “No, I can help too.”

“What should I do if the shaman’s oracle is damaged?”

“I’m sure you’re very hungry, so I’ll treat you to a meal!”

“Please come this way, miko!”

Ha-eun was instantly treated like royalty.

“Why are they suddenly… Argh! Ah Okay! “I’m going! Don’t pull me, you bastards!”

She was caught by the dragon people and dragged somewhere with a tearful expression on her face.
