I’m not a Regressor

Chapter 437



I am not a returner Episode 437

Lie (10)

Two years have passed since the end of the Second Star War that shook the world.

The huge gap of 20,000 awakened people that occurred immediately after the war caused global chaos.

Should I call it a blessing among misfortunes?

All the awakened people who had gone missing after being captured by the dark clouds returned safely a month later.

The awakened people who returned gathered around Chilseong and went on a rampage all over the world and began a large-scale extermination operation of the demonic beasts.

New awakeners who had not appeared for a while also reappeared as the constellations that had been tied up in the temple due to the restrictions of the law began to be released one by one.

In this way, the Awakened who returned from being captured by the Heavenly Demon and the Awakened who received the stigmata and the Constellations who were freed from the restrictions of the law joined forces and the Third War of the Stars was fought.

Unlike the Second Star War, which left humanity with a bitter defeat, the Third Star War that immediately followed brought an overwhelming victory, enough to wash away the humiliation of the previous defeat.

Less than half a year after the war was declared, most of the demonic beasts occupying various parts of the world were massacred, and the few surviving demonic beasts fled into the rift.

* * *

A world that has become unprecedentedly peaceful since the first crack opened.

As the chaos subsided, people’s interests began to shift elsewhere.

The first question that comes to mind is, of course, ‘Who killed the Heavenly Demon and rescued the captured awakened people?’

It didn’t take long to find the answer.

The hero of mankind who saved the awakened people who were captured by the Heavenly Demon was Pagunseong Kwon Oh-jin.

He was a member of the Seven Stars and an awakened person who identified himself as a ‘returner.’

There was little information revealed about the battle between Cheonma and Pagunseong.

The awakened people who returned from captivity testified that Pagunseong, who fought against Cheonma alone, became a companion to him after a fierce battle.

A hero who returned from the future, changed fate and saved the world.

This sweetener, more pungent than any MSG, instantly attracted people’s attention, and soon a wave of global tributes spread to Korea, the country where Pagunseong Kwon Oh-jin was born and raised.

The Korean government may have felt that this was the right time to honor his heroic sacrifice by erecting a statue in the likeness of Oh Jin when he was alive in front of the 1-star crack where the battle between Pagunseong and Cheonma took place.

The 30-meter-tall statue, built with a large amount of money, was destroyed by a sudden fireball less than a day after it was erected.

The culprit who broke the statue was Song Ha-eun, the awakened dragon, who was in love with Pa Gun-seong when he was alive.

When asked by reporters why she destroyed the statue, she raised her middle finger and answered:

We’re still alive, you motherfuckers.

The rift where the final battle between Cheonma and Ojin took place.

A huge column of dark clouds rose into the sky as if a volcano had exploded from the crack, which was engulfed in a black aura that gave off a gloomy energy.

The Black Heaven of the Heavenly Demon and the Black Heaven of Ojin.

The aftereffects of the two black streams not only swallowed up the entire space within the crack, but also escaped through the crack, covering several kilometers around with dark clouds.

Even in broad daylight when the sun is high in the sky, the land is covered in gloomy darkness like a moonless night.

Under a streetlight that illuminated the darkness like a lamp, a woman was looking up blankly at the towering pillar of black clouds.

“ha.”

Reddish-brown hair tied back tightly.

Although the entire area around her left eye was covered by an eyepatch, it was not difficult to guess that the woman had a breathtakingly beautiful appearance just by looking at the face revealed through the eyepatch.

“It’s already been 2 years, 2 years you idiot. “When do you want to come back?”

Ha-eun let out a deep sigh and tapped the ground with her toe.

Water formed around the right eye, which was not covered by the eye patch.

“Ugh. I heard that military service doesn’t even take two years these days. What does this mean? “If I keep making you wait, you’ll end up wearing your rubber shoes backwards?”

Ha-eun looks up at the dark clouds and clenches her fist as if threatening.

As always.

There was no answer back.

“….”

A lonely silence descends like a curtain.

When Ha-eun sighed deeply again and turned around.

“You’re here as expected, sister.”

A woman with beautiful platinum-blonde hair that looked like it was made from melted gold approached Ha-eun.

“uh? Wasn’t it in Italy? “I heard they are working on a Roman reconstruction project or something.”

“I took some time to come here. “It’s easy to get through the sanctuary.”

Isabella sat next to Ha-eun with a faint smile.

Just like Ha-eun did.

Isabella looked up vaguely at the pillar of black clouds rising high into the sky.

“It’s already been two years.”

“That’s it.”

A bitter smile appeared on Ha-eun’s lips.

She continued to complain, kicking a rock rolling nearby with her toe.

“Anyway, it’s okay to make a bastard wait. “Seriously, what if I end up seducing another guy like this?”

“Oh, so I’ll be the first?”

“Wake up from your dream, young lady.”

Ha-eun narrowed her eyes and pinched Isabella’s side.

Isabella smiled gracefully, covering her mouth.

“…Still, I’m glad that your condition seems to be improving.”

“Me?”

“Then who else is there?”

“I’ve never been in a particularly bad state…”

“What the hell. “When I first heard about Ojini, who was the one who forced her to drink water when she didn’t drink it for over a month?”

“Oh, you decided not to talk about it then.”

Isabella cleared her throat and averted her gaze.

“Your sister was also very upset because she thought they were sisters.”

In fact, Cassia was in more serious condition than Isabella.

Because I had to barely stop myself from jumping towards the black clouds.

“ha. “I wonder what would have happened if it hadn’t been for Vega at that time.”

“Stop that, really.”

It wasn’t Ha-eun’s care or the passage of time that saved the completely devastated sisters.

Isabella and Cassia were able to come to their senses when Vega was released from her restraints.

To be precise, it was because of a single word she said.

[It is alive.]

Vega, who came out of the temple and appeared on Earth, declared with a confident voice as soon as he saw the pillar of black clouds.

[Although it is faint… the energy of the Lyra stigmata is clearly felt.]

Vega’s words were of great salvation to the two women… no, to the three women.

Isabella and Cassia, who had been devastated by the news that Ojin was still alive, were also able to stand up with hope.

“And what about Cassia? “Didn’t you say you went to the Demon Lord before?”

Cassia was thoroughly searching not only the Earth but also the Demonic World and the Sanctuary to see if there were any clues that could lead Ojin out from the dark clouds.

“I received a call not long ago that I had returned to Earth.”

“The clue to take out Ojini is….”

“This time, it’s all in vain.”

The answer came from behind.

Slurp, slurp.

Cassia approached Ha-eun and Isabella with a sound like a snake crawling on the floor.

“I found a few documents about the Black Heaven that remain in Niflheim, but I couldn’t find any clues to get Ojin out of those dark clouds.”

Cassia sighs deeply and chews her nails with a nervous expression.

Ha-eun nodded as if she had expected it.

“Because there is no such thing as a record of two dark heavens colliding.”

“…As expected, I will go in there myself…”

“And what if you get trapped in there too?”

“….”

Cassia’s expression darkened.

Ha-eun looked at the pillar of dark clouds and bit her chapped lip.

“Now there is no other way than to trust Ojini and wait.”

“…but.”

[Don’t worry.]

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Brilliant silver light gathered in the air and a silver-haired goddess appeared.

Vega, who appeared as his real body instead of his palm-sized body, slowly flew towards Ha-eun.

[Who is your child? Even if you don’t fuss, he will come back.]

“…Yes, of course.”

“If you are Oh Jin, you will come back one day without any worries.”

“I will also look for other clues.”

The shadow on the faces of the three women who answered bitterly did not go away.

Absence of misdiagnosis.

The empty space where he disappeared became a hole in women’s hearts that could not be filled.

“Please check one more time to see if I can still feel the energy of the Vega Lyra stigmata.”

[…I understand.]

Although this request has already been made dozens and hundreds of times.

The only hope they could rely on now was the energy of the Lyra Stigmata flowing out from those dark clouds.

Vega slowly flew up and approached the pillar of black clouds.

and.

[…!]

The goddess’s eyes widen.

She trembled with a pale look on her face.

[How… How can this….]

I can’t see it.

Even though it was covered with dark clouds, the starlight was faintly leaking out.

“what? why? “Why are you doing that?”

[Oh no. This can’t be happening!]

Vega shook her head with an expression that went from white to blue.

“No way…”

“Oh, you didn’t mean to say that Ojin’s presence disappeared or anything like that, right?”

Isabella and Cassia’s faces turn blue along with Vega.

“Oh, no!”

Cassia hurriedly ran towards the dark clouds without Ha-eun having time to stop her.

Just before her hand touched the pillar of black clouds.

Rumbling!

With a terrifying roar, the pillar of black clouds began to be sucked into the crack again.

“Tsk…!”

“Oh sister!”

“damn! “What happened to this…!”

Before I even realized what was happening.

Grumbling.

The black crack closed and formed into the shape of a human being.

“…ah.”

[I. That is….]

“Oh come on!!!”

Ha-eun was the first to run away.

She ran like crazy towards Ojin who appeared where the crack had closed.

“Oh Ojina! Come on! “Ojini, that’s you, right?!”

Is this the first time I’ve seen Oh Jin’s face in a while?

Ha-eun sobbed while hugging Oh-jin.

“iced coffee. “Finally.”

“Ojin is finally back!”

[Can you hide it? Are you breathing?]

Cassia and Isabella Vega also hurriedly approached the fallen Ojin.

When asked if he was breathing, Ha-eun put her ear to Oh-jin’s mouth.

“Yes! Rest! “We’re breathing!”

“Oh sister! Quickly move the shadow and bring Aquarius Awakening quickly!”

“okay!”

[no! It would be better for the main woman to go to the sanctuary and call the constellations!]

In the midst of the noisy commotion.

“Hmm.”

Ojin pursed his lips and slowly opened his eyes.

“….”

Ojin opened his eyes and looked around at the four women surrounding him one by one.

“who are you?”

I asked, tilting my head.
