I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 348

Interlude – I am not a returner (3)

Rrrrrrrrrrr!

The flames dance.

It burns the unconscious space and burns brightly as if it will devour the whole world.

“Huh oh oh oh oh!”

Sweat running down my spine.

The attacks unleashed by the Heavenly Demon, whose entire body had turned into a black cloud, were as precise as a cunning poisonous snake and as violent as a hungry beast.

but.

‘You have to hold on.’

What if I die here?

All efforts to tell Vega the truth go to waste.

Oh Jin took a deep breath and glared at Cheonma sharply.

If I had stuck with him properly, I would have had no chance of winning.

‘This is my unconsciousness.’

In the space of consciousness, not reality.

Even if the gap between him and him was as big as that between an ant and an anteater,

at least the ‘owner’ of this space was Ojin.

‘If only I could adjust the space according to my consciousness.’

Ojin looked at the black flames rushing wildly and snapped his fingers.

Grumble!

A wall of black clouds rose up and blocked the flames.

“yes!”

There was no need to create lightning strikes and fight in a space that was not real.

This is a space of unconsciousness.

The black clouds covering all directions were not the Heavenly Demon, but Ojin’s ‘Dark Heaven’ clouds.

“Hmph!”

Coo!

Ojin took a short breath and stamped his feet roughly.

Gurgling! Kuruk!

Black storm clouds swirled and covered the Heavenly Demon.

I felt the energy of the Heavenly Demon being absorbed through the black clouds.

“You’re struggling in vain.”

The Heavenly Demon frowned and waved his hand lightly.

The dark clouds that had been covering him dispersed in the blink of an eye.

“….”

Although he escaped the attack once, the Heavenly Demon’s expression did not relax.

No matter how much he was a Heavenly Demon, it was impossible for him to properly demonstrate his power in the unconsciousness of Ojin, who possessed a more ‘complete’ Dark Heaven than his own.

It’s a level where you fight while carrying a piece of metal on your body, not a sandbag.

“still.”

The Cheonma let out a low sigh and turned her sparkling blue eyes to Ojin.

The dark clouds that formed his body parted, revealing pure white teeth.

“You still have a long way to go.”

Gurgling!

The body of the Heavenly Demon rushed towards Ojin.

A very close fight that took place as the distance quickly narrowed.

A fist made of black clouds struck Ojin in the solar plexus.

“Wow!”

Ojin bounces around with his back bent like a shrimp.

Even though it was only a single blow, the internal organs burst and blood poured out.

‘no.’

This is a space of consciousness, not reality.

There was no way there were internal organs.

‘The wounds I suffered just now are all of my own making.’

It’s similar to when you use ‘lying’ to yourself and end up getting hurt when in reality you weren’t hurt.

‘then.’

Ohjin quietly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

If all of this is a lie of your own making.

“I am invincible.”

All you have to do is put a new lie on top of it.

“I am immortal and I do not feel any pain.”

“…What are you doing?”

Cheonma looked at Ojin with a puzzled expression.

While fighting for a while, I suddenly burst out laughing when I saw him hypnotizing himself by saying he was invincible.

“I am faster than light and harder than steel.”

“Why don’t you focus on fighting when you’re doing useless things…”

Couuuuuuung!

Ojin’s body was shot out with a loud noise that seemed to tear his eardrums.

At a speed far exceeding the speed of sound, the unconscious space made up of black clouds split apart like the Red Sea.

The speed is much faster than the speed at which actual misdiagnosis can occur in ‘reality’.

The clenched fist struck the Heavenly Demon in the face.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

A sound that doesn’t sound like it was hit by a human fist.

Hundreds and thousands of meters of earth made up of black clouds caved in, and the Heavenly Demon’s body flew backwards like a cannonball.

thud! thud! thud!

A heavenly horse that flew away, bouncing on the ground like a water swallow.

Grumble, rumble, rumble!

About half of the Heavenly Demon’s body, which was made up of black clouds, disappeared with a single blow.

Of course, Cheonma’s upper body, which had been blown away by the punch, was restored to normal within a few seconds.

“Ugh! “Cluck, cluck, cluck!”

The Heavenly Demon was gasping for breath while clutching her regenerated chest, as if she could not completely get rid of the shock.

“What is this…”

Cheonma looked at Ojin in disbelief.

Suddenly, I thought he was muttering nonsense, but then he began to display overwhelming power, as if the person had completely changed.

“What, you can’t use this?”

“…This?”

“You’re lying.”

“…?”

The Heavenly Demon frowned and tilted his head.

What kind of lies are you talking about all of a sudden?

“Oh well. “I also had a hard time getting used to it.”

It was understandable that the Heavenly Demon could not be used if it had not undergone continuous training like Ojin.

Even if both are the same ‘misdiagnosis’.

Just as Ojin could not do everything that Cheonma could do, the converse was also true.

“You control your unconscious mind by lying to yourself…?”

Cheonma, who was thinking deeply about what Oh Jin had just said, looked at him with a puzzled expression.

How can you manipulate your unconscious mind by lying to yourself?

Cheonma himself, who had been in the unconscious space for many years, knew best how absurd that was.

The unconscious is not something you can control as you want.

For example, when you hear the words, ‘Don’t imagine an elephant,’ what do you think of?

Even if you don’t consciously want to imagine an elephant, you unconsciously think of it.

The same principle applies to getting hurt in the unconscious space.

Since it is not reality, you are not actually hurt, but unconsciously you judge that you are ‘hurt’, so you are hurt in the space of consciousness, not reality.

‘however.’

Oh Jin was in complete control of that unconsciousness through ‘lies’.

“…surely.”

The Heavenly Demon twisted the corners of his mouth and nodded.

“You are not me.”

Cheonma, seeing a technique that he could not imitate, hung his arms with a helpless expression.

Grumbling.

The black flame that was burning fiercely returned to his body.

“You weren’t trying to kill me, were you?”

“I’m going to kill you. But…”

It was impossible, at least in the space of unconsciousness.

There was little that Cheonma, who was not the owner of this space, could do against Ojin, who could freely manipulate the unconscious.

“…are you going to return to reality and kill me?”

Oh Jin narrowed his eyes and glared at Cheonma.

I was pretending to be as calm as possible, but inside, my mouth was burning with tension.

There was no way for him to fight and win against the Heavenly Demon in real life, not in the space of his unconsciousness.

“That also seems difficult right now.”

The Heavenly Demon placed her hand on the left side of her chest with a bitter expression.

Grumble, rumble, rumble!

As time passed, the erosion of Heukcheon became too strong.

Even if you return to reality, it will be difficult to regain your sanity for a while.

“Well, in the end, it’s a question of whether it’s too late or too early.”

The eerily burning blue natural flower stared at Oh Jin.

“You have no right to protect your sister.”

Now that he knows that he is different from himself.

I couldn’t leave Oh Jin by Ha Eun’s side.

“We will meet again.”

Grumble, rumble.

As dawn broke, the dark clouds covering the surroundings gradually dispersed and light began to seep in.

“No matter when that happens, definitely.”

The Heavenly Demon dispersed as if it were melting into thin air, leaving behind those words.

“Ugh!”

The black clouds dispersed and Ojin’s consciousness was forced back to reality.

“….”

When I opened my tightly closed eyes, what appeared before my eyes was the ruins of Niflheim.

The huge tsunami of black clouds that seemed to engulf the world had disappeared.

‘Where did they go?’

Ojin frowned and activated the Stigmata of the Hound to look around, but he could not feel the Heavenly Demon’s energy anywhere.

“Whoa.”

The tension melted away and a deep sense of fatigue washed over me.

“Oh Ojina!”

I saw Ha-eun running towards me in the distance.

“sister?”

“You you bastard! “I suddenly said I couldn’t see you, but you were still here?!”

Ha-eun grabbed Oh-jin by the collar with a distorted expression.

When I heard from Riak that Ojin had gone alone to stop the tsunami of dark clouds, I was so shocked that my heart almost dropped.

“Ugh… Black! “Do you want your breasts to turn into asphalt gum, you bastard?”

“…What do you mean?”

Ha-eun shed sad tears while hugging Oh-jin.

Oh Jin placed his hand on Ha Eun’s back, patted her, and smiled slightly.

-You don’t deserve to be around your sister.

The words Cheonma left behind sharply rang through my mind.

‘Maybe so.’

As he said, his greed may have been too much.

Maybe I was trying to carry too much.

but.

“…sister.”

“Ugh why?”

Wow!

Ha-eun, who vigorously blew her nose on Oh-jin’s clothes, looked up at him with tearful eyes.

‘No, what is this sister doing so shamefully?’

Oh Jin, who was frowning as he looked down at the thick snot on his clothes, soon burst into laughter.

If this unadorned appearance was like Ha-eun, it was the most like Ha-eun.

Oh Jin added strength to the arm that hugged Ha Eun’s waist.

‘I’m sorry.’

I had no intention of leaving Ha-eun’s side.

“Please stay by my side forever.”

Even if another ‘I’ appears.

He bitterly swallowed his words and buried his head on Ha-eun’s shoulder.

“Uh huh?”

Ha-eun rolled her eyes with a puzzled expression.

“Now… what is it? “Did I get proposed to?”

No, I didn’t mean it that way.

“Hey, you bastard! What is this?! In a more atmospheric place! uh? Give me a ring too! And what if I tell you here and now?!”

Because I didn’t propose.

“Anyway, bastard. “He suddenly said something strange…”

Ha-eun fanned her red cheeks with her hand.

She looked around, took a step away from Ojin, and carefully opened her mouth.

“I… I like that group.”

“….”

I didn’t particularly propose.

‘Well, should I just leave this as is?’

Oh Jin smiled and lightly kissed Ha Eun on the lips.

Not everything was resolved, though.

No, nothing really important was resolved.

“Let’s go back home.”

It was time to end the long journey.
