I’m Not a Regressor Chapter 424

I am not a returner Episode 424

Interlude – Escape (1)

“Why… did Eve die?”

Mobius, who was sobbing while holding the necklace in his arms, glared at Ojin with sharp eyes.

“Do you still not know why the child died after coming all the way here?”

Moebius’ gaze turned to the constellations.

“Because of your dirty and selfish beliefs! “That child is going to die!”

“…no.”

“What do you mean it’s not? If the Constellations had helped back then like they do now…”

“That’s not what I’m talking about.”

“…yes?”

Clearly, in Lee Shin-hyuk’s memory, Moebius told Cheonma that our purpose was ‘the same.’

The purpose mentioned here is not ‘revenge’ against the constellations.

It can’t be revenge.

because.

‘Because the purpose of the Heavenly Demon is not revenge.’

The Heavenly Demon had only one purpose from the beginning.

Turning back time.

Changing ‘fate’ by sending Lee Shin-hyuk to the past.

and.

Changing the fate of Ha-eun, who would have originally faced death.

That was the purpose of the Heavenly Demon.

‘Wouldn’t Moebius in his previous life know that?’

no.

There’s no way I didn’t know.

I couldn’t have known.

-Isn’t that child important to your plans?

Moebius clearly said that while trying to stop the excited Heavenly Demon.

Lee Shin-hyuk is an important child in your plans.

Those were words that could never have been said if one had not been aware of the Heavenly Demon’s plan.

‘then.’

Oh Jin’s expression hardened.

“What do you mean no?”

Moebius frowned as if he couldn’t understand what Ojin was saying.

“What on earth do you want to talk about… Ugh!”

at that time.

I felt a sharp pain in my stigmata and felt the energy of the Black Sky draining out.

The energy of the Black Heaven that is now escaping is the energy that was first received from the Heavenly Demon.

If you were to compare Heukcheon to a tree growing by taking root in the stigmata, it was the part corresponding to the ‘seed’.

‘This energy leaving….’

means that one’s complete ‘annihilation’ is not far away.

“…It’s all over now.”

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Moebius’s lips.

In the end, without being able to do anything.

This is how it came to a vain end.

“ha ha ha.”

Mobius sighed deeply and held the crude apple necklace made of plastic in his hand.

An image of a girl with a smile as bright as starlight appeared in my mind.

“Can we… meet… soon?”

When I slowly tried to close my eyes, thinking over my memories of Eve.

“Don’t try to end it on your own.”

Ojin placed his hand on his stigmata and began to infuse him with the energy of the Black Heaven.

Ojin’s Black Heaven filled the place where the Heavenly Demon’s Black Heaven had left.

“What… are you doing… now?”

Are you suddenly trying to save your enemy?

“If it’s sympathy… there’s no need…”

“That’s not the reason.”

With a nervous expression, Ojin continued to infuse the power of the Black Sky into Moebius’s stigmata.

Moebius’ body, which had been reduced to powder and scattered, returned to its original form and scattered again and again, as if a stone had been thrown onto the surface of the water.

“I have something to ask you.”

“Are you going to ask me why Eve died?”

Mobius continued speaking with difficulty amidst the pain that made him faint.

Why did Eve die?

What’s the reason you’re asking that now?

“That… child died… because of our greed.”

What if I had forcibly caught that child heading to the battlefield that day?

No, if he hadn’t given the child the stigmata in the first place.

Eve would not have died.

“I… I… killed that child.”

okay.

The person who killed Eve was none other than himself.

“If only I had known it would be like that.”

okay.

If he were a ‘returner’ like the Heavenly Demon, he would never have given that child the stigmata━

“Huh?”

at that time.

A strange sense of discomfort spread down Moebius’s spine.

As Ojin’s black water flowed into him, an unfamiliar memory appeared in his mind.

-Do not forget it.

A picture of myself having a conversation with the Heavenly Demon.

-That you and I have only one purpose.

-I know.

The Heavenly Demon turned around with him, leaving behind the human he had beaten up.

‘What is this…?’

It’s an unfamiliar memory.

It’s a memory I don’t have.

The self in the memories flowing into my head right now.

‘I’m not.’

He had never had such a conversation with the Heavenly Demon or even walked around with him.

The first time I encountered the Heavenly Demon was when I first received power.

After I received the power of the Black Sky and became a black star, I occasionally contacted him, but we only communicated to a limited extent and never met in person and went out together.

So who is the person in this memory?

He was too similar to himself to be called a similar person.

To say it was me, I had no memory of having such a conversation.

then.

The remaining possibilities are…

“No… that can’t be possible.”

The front and back do not match.

Cause and effect are not connected.

When Cheonma first met him, he said that he ‘didn’t know’ that Eve would die.

I didn’t doubt his words.

Just because you’re a regressor doesn’t mean you know everything.

In the first place, I never thought that there would be contact between me and him in my past life.

It was natural.

Because there was no connection between the Heavenly Demon and Eve’s death.

Immediately after becoming a black star, there was a time when I suspected that the sudden attack by a group of demonic beasts might have been an order from the Heavenly Demon, but upon direct investigation, it turned out that was not the case.

The sudden attack by a group of demon beasts is only a result of changes in the demon world’s ecology.

It wasn’t something that someone caused with intent.

In that regard, I was confident that I had more information than anyone else.

So I thought the reason Eve died was simply because the constellations ignored the child.

“What on earth is this memory?”

Mobius shouted, grabbing Ojin by the collar.

“you…! What have you done to me? uh?!”

“The memories received through tradition… were shared?”

This was something that even Oh Jin could not have expected.

“…transmission? share? “What does that mean?”

“Hmm.”

anyway.

If the memories of the past life passed down through Lee Shin-hyuk were also passed down to Mobius, the story would be rather convenient.

“What you just saw was your memory from your past life.”

“In my past life…me?”

“okay.”

Cheonma and Lee Shin-hyuk did not return.

The world before fate was twisted.

“Ah uh.”

Mobius leaned down, clutching his pure white hair as if tearing it out.

“Then… you and the Heavenly Demon knew each other in a past life?”

“I wonder if I just knew.”

The relationship between the two didn’t seem that good to call them colleagues…

‘Collaborator’ would be appropriate.

“Then… why why why…! You didn’t protect Eve! I told you we have the same purpose! then! “Why on earth hasn’t that child’s fate changed?”

Mobius shouts like a scream.

Oh Jin looked at him with bitter eyes and opened his mouth.

“I kept you alive because I wanted to know that.”

“Ah ah ah.”

Mobius’ body trembled as if he was having a seizure.

The torrent of excessive emotions burned fiercely, burning reason.

“Why why why why why… why!”

When I was tearing my head out and crying like crazy.

Damn it!

The air distorted and a black crack appeared.

A man walked out from the pitch-black crack with leisurely steps.

“…you.”

Although they have the same appearance.

Another misdiagnosis with a different destiny.

It was a thousand horses.

“Youoooooooo!!!”

“hmm?”

The Heavenly Demon tilted his head and turned towards Moebius.

“Huh what? “Are you still alive?”

He muttered, “I thought he would have died by now.”

The Heavenly Demon shrugged his shoulders leisurely.

“Did you… know that Eve would die?”

“Hmm. “I guess you told me everything, right?”

Cheonma looks back at Ojin and smiles darkly.

That alone was enough to answer the question, ‘Did you know?’

“Why didn’t you save me?”

Mobius cried out as if he was throwing up, clutching the necklace in his hand until it broke.

“I told you we have the same purpose! “You promised me that I would save that child in exchange for helping you!”

however.

why.

“Why hasn’t that child’s fate changed?”

“for a moment…!”

Quang!

Without Ojin able to stop him, Moebius kicked the ground and sprinted.

The stigmata of Ophiuchus, which barely escaped extinction by absorbing Ojin’s Black Heaven, burned brightly.

“Answer me you bastard!!!”

A sanctuary where you squeeze out the last of your strength.

The shadow that covered the earth stretched out, aiming for the Heavenly Demon.

Just right.

The Heavenly Demon looked at the charging Moebius and lightly snapped his fingers.

A black ember burned where he snapped his fingers, as if he had struck flint.

Grumble!

As soon as the small ember that fell on the floor came in contact with the shadow of Mobius, it burned fiercely as if it had been poured with oil.

“Aaaahhh!”

In the blink of an eye, the entire sanctuary of Moebius was engulfed in black flames.

Moebius, whose entire body was covered in black flames, screamed in pain and rolled around on the floor.

“Answer me… why… that child.”

Even though his whole body was on fire, Mobius crawled across the floor and approached the Heavenly Demon.

“Oh, that?”

The Heavenly Demon grinned, twisting the corner of his mouth and placing his foot on Mobius’ head.

“It is a lie.”

Poseok.

Mobius’ head, trampled by the Heavenly Demon’s feet, exploded into pieces.

The necklace Moebius was holding fell from his hand and rolled on the floor.

The Heavenly Demon, who lightly trampled on Moebius’s head and burst it open, looked at the constellations with a leisurely gaze.

“With this, all the variables regarding ‘sanctuary’ have been sorted out.”

Because the restrictions of the law were weaker than expected, most of the constellations did not go to extinction.

In return for breaking the law, you will probably have to spend the next few years… or even decades, locked up in the sanctuary.

And that’s about it.

It was enough time to bring the curtain down.

“hi?”

Cheonma turned her head towards Ojin and smiled brightly.

“Did I tell you?”

That we will meet again.
