I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 374:

Constellation of the Black Star (10)

Sanctuary Dragon Palace in Hippocampus.

A place where the power of the Hippocampus, which freely handles water, can be displayed to its fullest potential.

What filled this area was not just water.

‘Seahorse Water’, where every drop is made by melting the power of the Seahorse constellation.

Just by taking a sip, the deadly poison spreads throughout your body, and you feel like you are trapped several kilometers beneath the deep sea.

Even if they were the same constellation, let alone an awakened person, it would be impossible to survive in his sanctuary on their own.

how.

why.

[Whoop whoop.]

Black powder flowed from Anceladus’s eyes, nose, and mouth and mixed into the water.

He looked at the human… no, the monster in front of him with wide eyes.

[What are you…?]

My whole body is crushed by the water pressure, and each cell is poisoned by the extreme poison.

As if he had turned back time, his body regenerated in an instant and came towards him, scattering black thunderbolts.

[Uh, how…]

Yes.

As far as playback goes, let’s say that.

Even if he had special powers or magical powers that he didn’t know about and could quickly restore his body, how could a person endure death more than dozens or hundreds of times?

Regardless of whether the body could endure it or not, the mind deserved to collapse first.

The human mind is not built to withstand death.

No, regardless of whether you are a human or not, this is a pain that would cause even a constellation to collapse and go crazy.

but.

[They say horse meat is that tough, but it doesn’t last as long as you think.]

Is that because it’s a walrus, not a horse?

Ojin, who was clutching Anceladus’ neck with a cold sneer on his lips, looked perfectly fine.

[Already… you’re a crazy monster…!]

[I don’t want to hear that from a guy who turns his own child into a nutritious magic solution.]

The hand grabbed Anceladus’ neck while laughing. added strength.

Grumble!

The black clouds that erupted from his entire body flowed down his arms and covered Anceladus’ body.

[Wow! Wow! Ahhh!]

Wood-duk-duk-duk-duk!

Until now, it was a dark heaven that had only absorbed the magical power of the stigmata residing within the body.

In the case of the constellation, since the body itself was made of the magical power of stigmata, it began to eat the constellation like a carnivore eating its prey alive.

[Oh, no! Save me… gasp!]

Is life precious even for transcendental people who live eternal life?

Anceladus cried out in fear and twisted his body.

[I… I can’t die…!]

It’s not that I don’t want to die, it’s that I can’t die.

Ojin tilted his head and continued absorbing.

and.

-Why why don’t you understand! This is the only way to prevent destruction!

Memories flowing into my head.

The image of Anceladus crying desperately was pictured in my mind.

Ohjin chuckled as he sorted out the memories that flowed like flashbacks.

[The world cannot be saved without sacrifice. So, are you talking about turning the awakened people into magic solution?]

[How did you do that…?!]

Anceladus looked at Ojin with his eyes wide in astonishment.

[Sacrifice… sacrifice. Yes, you are right.]

The world cannot be saved without sacrifice.

It’s not wrong.

therefore.

[Don’t worry, I will use you as a ‘sacrifice’ to help save the world.]

[What kind of nonsense is that…]

[If I become stronger and kill the Heavenly Demon with the power I gained from eating you, then how would that be a sacrifice?]

[That’s bullshit. Don’t do it!]

Anceladus shouted in an urgent voice.

Ohjin shrugged his shoulders and stared at him with cold eyes.

[Why do you hate it when you actually sacrifice it?]

[That…]

[Yeah, yeah. I know it even if you don’t say it.]

He continued, bursting into laughter.

[For someone who says sacrifice is necessary, there is no one who meekly accepts it when he becomes the target.]

That’s how everyone lives by forcing others to do things they don’t want to do.

Constellations and humans.

[Actually, the reason you tried to create a magical solution and raise strong awakened people was not to prevent destruction, but simply to raise your ‘status’, which is lower than that of other constellations, right?] [

No! I will make the necessary sacrifice to prevent destruction…]

[Then why did you feed the magic solution to your child?]

[…What?]

Ojin continued speaking with deeply sunken eyes.

[You said you would give strength to a talented awakened person? In that case, it’s right to give the solution to the awakened person of another constellation, not the awakened person of the Hippocampus constellation, right?]

The constellation of the Hippocampus constellation was a constellation that was quite ‘low in class’ among the hundreds of constellations.

then.

Isn’t it natural that it would be more effective to feed the magic solution made by melting the awakened person to an awakened person with a different constellation rather than feeding it to an awakened person in the same Hippocampus constellation?

[But you didn’t do that.]

If you pass on the magical solution created by sacrificing your own child to an awakened person from another constellation, your ‘level’ will drop even further.

[That’s it.]

Anceladus’ eyes wavered.

Oh Jin shook his shoulders and burst into laughter.

He probably had no doubts that he believed himself to be ‘just’ until he pointed it out.

Because there is nothing that resembles belief more than desire disguised as a lie.

[Don’t pretend to have faith by lying, you idiot.]

[What do you know…!]

[I know.]

Ohjin smiled brightly and grabbed his wide open hand.

[A lie is actually the sweetest when told to yourself.]

Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The black clouds rose up like an explosion and engulfed Anceladus’ body.

[Oh no… gasp! Wow! [Kaaaa!]

With a deathly scream, an enormous amount of magical energy flowed through the black sky that had swallowed Anceladus.

‘Ugh.’

Ojin frowned and endured the power of the constellation flowing into his body.

‘After all, a constellation is a constellation even if its status is low.’

The magical power flowing into my body was so thick and massive that it sent chills down my spine.

‘but.’

No matter how powerful the magical power was, compared to when it absorbed part of the Heavenly Demon’s Black Heaven, this was enough to endure.

Ojin gritted his teeth and endured to prevent his consciousness from being swept away by the magic power that surged like a tidal wave.

and.

-Tiring.

The clear sound of bells, which I had not heard in a long time, rang in my ears.

‘This is…’

Ojin’s eyes turned to the blue message window that appeared in front of him.

[The constellation of the Hippocampus has been successfully absorbed!]

[The eleventh flowering condition of the Black Sky has been achieved!]

Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The black clouds that spewed out from Ojin’s entire body enveloped his body like a whirlwind.

A sense of distant omnipotence filled me, along with a shiver running down my spine.

[Due to the eleventh flowering of Black Heaven, the effects of Black Heaven’s characteristics become stronger!]

[The new attribute ‘Sanctuary Expansion’ has been acquired!]

Sanctuary Expansion?

Oh Jin’s eyes lit up as he looked at the new feature, which had a fraudulent smell right from its name.

When I clicked on the message window to check the detailed explanation of the sanctuary development.

[The memories of Awakened Lee Shin-hyeok are passed down according to the flowering stage of the Black Sky!]

‘It’s been a long time.’

How long has this been passed down?

Well, I don’t know how useful the memories from the first episode will be now.

Oh Jin quietly closed his eyes and focused on the memories flowing into his mind.

-Why why are you doing this!!

Lee Shin-hyuk was seen crying.

-Why on earth are you doing this to me!!!!

Miserably, miserably.

Hugging Lee Woo-hyuk’s severed head.

He screamed at the masked devil in front of him.

-well?

Inside the pure white mask.

Blue, burning eyes gazed at Lee Shin-hyuk.

-If you hadn’t… left me there then, wouldn’t this have happened?

A voice that resonates eerily.

Lee Shin-hyuk’s eyes trembled.

-I abandoned you…? What does that mean?

-Hmm. I guess I don’t remember either.

The masked devil Cheonma looked down at Lee Shin-hyuk and shook his shoulders.

-but. Basically, memories disappear easily.

For example, the lunch menu I had the day before yesterday.

For example, an overseas trip you went on when you were young.

For example, an incident where a person was pushed aside by a group of Enthorns to escape.

As if melting into the passing time.

Memories disappear and memories fade.

-But you know what?

Cheonma grabbed Lee Shin-hyuk’s neck as he collapsed.

-No matter how much I try to forget it, no matter how much I try to erase it.

never.

-There are also unforgettable memories?

Blue, burning eyes gazed at Lee Shin-hyuk.

Why?

Those eerie eyes made me feel lonely and pitiful.

-What… What do you mean?

-haha. What I’m saying is that I wanted to make an unforgettable memory for you too.

Cheonma let out a low laugh and touched Lee Woo-hyuk’s head, which Lee Shin-hyuk was holding tightly, with his hand.

A spark flashed in Lee Shin-hyuk’s eyes.

-You bastard!

Lee Shin-hyuk’s hand grasped the spear with a scream of anger.

The tip of the spear, moving smoothly following the guidance of the compass, was aimed at the Heavenly Demon’s neck.

-This is true.

The Heavenly Demon waved his hand lightly, as if swatting away a troublesome fly.

Kagang!

The sharp blade of the spear aimed at his neck bent and broke like a stick of taffy.

-I was just going to give him a gift and move on quietly, but this is getting on my nerves again?

In an irritated voice, he added strength to the hand that was clutching Lee Shin-hyuk’s neck.

-Whoosh whoosh! Wow!

By the time Lee Shin-hyuk let out a painful groan and his eyes turned white.

-Let’s stop there.

A man appeared from the side and grabbed Cheonma’s shoulder.

‘…that.’

The man who first comes to mind when the word white comes to mind.

The man with pure white hair and pale skin pulled the Cheonma’s shoulder with a gentle smile on his lips.

-Isn’t that child important to your plans?

-…Tsk.

The Heavenly Demon clicked his tongue softly and relaxed his grip.

Puha!

Lee Shin-hyuk fell to the floor, breathing heavily.

-okay okay. Now, have you put your hands down? This is enough, right?

-Do not forget it.

The white-haired man stared at the Heavenly Demon with eyes shining with emerald green.

-That you and I have only one purpose.

-I know.

The Heavenly Demon nodded quietly and turned around.

Just like that, the two disappeared beyond the dark clouds, leaving behind the fallen Lee Shin-hyuk.

and.

Chijijijijiji!

The memory was cut off along with the noise.

-Tiring!

[All the memories of Awakened Lee Shin-hyeok recorded in the Lyra Stigmata have been passed down!]

“Ugh!”

Ojin clutched his throbbing head and frowned.

A white-haired man seen through Lee Shin-hyuk’s memories.

‘It has the same purpose as the Heavenly Demon?’

I bit my lip, remembering the face of a man whose gentle smile had an eerie strangeness to it.
