I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 417:

War of the Stars (8)

“…What?”

It felt like I had been hit in the back of the head with a hammer.

Ojin was lost in thought for a moment, forgetting to attack Mobius with a thunderbolt.

‘Because the constellation gave him the stigmata, the Black Sky even targeted humans.’

okay.

Well, I could understand this part.

If Black Heaven’s essential desire was to eat all the stars, it was natural for that desire to extend to the person who gave the stigmata.

‘but.’

One question remained unresolved.

“This doesn’t make sense.”

“What doesn’t fit?”

“Humans were already on the verge of extinction even before the constellations appeared.”

“aha. “You mean the first crack?”

“okay.”

It is incoherent to say that humanity is on the verge of extinction due to the selfishness of the Constellations.

From the time the constellations themselves did not appear on Earth in the first place, humanity was already closer to ‘destruction’ than anything else.

“If the Constellations had not given humanity the stigmata at that time, we would have perished at the hands of the demonic beasts.”

Without the existence of the Awakened, large-scale wars such as the first ‘War of the Stars’ that drove out a large number of demonic beasts would not have occurred.

If the Constellation had not bestowed the stigmata, humanity would have slowly perished as if poison had been spread.

“Hmm. So, if you save a drowning person, does that give you the right to use that person as you wish?”

“…When you say that, I don’t have anything to say.”

As Mobius said.

Even if the Constellations saved humanity from destruction, it did not give them the right to use them.

but.

“You can’t later accuse me of sexual harassment just because I kissed you for artificial respiration, right?”

For the constellations bound by the restrictions of the law, the only way to save humanity was to give up the ‘stigmata’.

Although he miraculously escaped destruction through the power of the stigmata, it was impossible to question why he was given the stigmata later.

“ha ha ha. That’s an interesting analogy. Hmm. But what if the person who drowned was the Constellation himself?”

“…what?”

then.

Are you saying that the reason the ‘first crack’ appeared on Earth was because of a constellation?

[Bullshit!]

Vega glared at Mobius with a fierce scowl.

[Didn’t Polaris say that the cracks opening in the Earth had nothing to do with the constellations?]

“That is just Polaris’ opinion.”

[…He has the power to predict the future.]

“Just because you know the future doesn’t mean you can know the truth of all things, right? In fact, it is true that the rift opened immediately after the constellations showed interest in humans.”

[You can’t say for sure that there is a causal relationship just because the timing overlapped.]

“But that doesn’t mean you can lump everything together with the convenient term ‘coincidence.’”

The argument between Vega and Moebius intensified.

“stop.”

He took a step forward and got between the two.

“So, to sum it up…”

The first crack opened right after the constellations became interested in Earth.

The story is that the stigmata were hurriedly bestowed upon humanity, which could be said to be the last hope of the Constellations, was in danger of extinction due to the pouring out of demonic beasts.

in other words.

This probably means that the constellation is not a savior-like being who appeared to save humanity.

“I guess we can roughly summarize it like that.”

Moebius shrugged his shoulders and continued.

“The Constellation’s care for the child who gave it stigmata as if it were its own child, and its care and protection of humans are all just measures to save one’s own life.”

Eyes shining with hatred turned towards the constellations.

“Even if they talk about their duties as a Constellation and all that, if something happens that puts them in danger, they will turn their backs without hesitation.”

“….”

[No!]

“No? So what are you doing now?”

A battlefield where fierce battles continue.

The constellations were watching the battlefield filled with screams, screams, and the smell of blood.

okay.

All I could do was ‘watch’.

“Aren’t you just watching and doing nothing while your children fight for their lives?”

[That’s because of the restrictions of the law.]

“Hahaha! Again and again! “Is it that damn restriction?”

Mobius burst out laughing, holding his stomach.

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

The fierce burning eyes turned towards Vega.

“You know that, right? “If you risk ‘annihilation,’ you can break the restrictions of the law.”

[….]

Just as Mobius said.

If the constellations themselves made sacrifices, they could ignore the restrictions of the law and use their power even on Earth.

Of course, the cost is… in the worst case, it will lead to the ‘annihilation’ of Seongjon himself.

“Do you think being an awakened person doesn’t mean fighting for your life? “Do you think I didn’t risk death to stand here?”

however.

“Why do you only hope for salvation without any sacrifice or reward? “Is that the proud ‘constellation’s duty’ that you speak of?”

[Let’s hear it and let’s hear it. There’s nothing this guy can’t say!]

Spica, the constellation of Virgo, who was listening to the story, flew over here.

[Do you think we are just watching? He is fighting with the children while giving them blessings!]

“Blessing! okay! Blessing of the Constellation! You are making a very great sacrifice! Well, now that I’ve given you the blessing, you can pretend to scream in pain due to the restrictions of the law and then go back to the sanctuary and get some recuperation!”

[That…]

“You guys!”

Coo!

Mobius stamped his feet roughly and glared at the constellations with eyes filled with hatred.

“You don’t plan on making any sacrifices in the first place!”

Even if your children die before your eyes.

Even if it is torn to pieces and trampled miserably.

They don’t ‘sacrifice’.

Because they were constellations.

Because he was a transcendent being born from a different planet from his fundamentals than insignificant mortals like humans.

“Now you understand, right?”

Moebius’ gaze turned to Ojin.

“This… is the truth about the constellation you believe in and follow.”

“….”

Ojin kept his mouth shut and turned his gaze to the constellations behind him.

Their expressions were stiff, as if what Mobius said was true to some extent.

ha.

A deep sigh escaped Ojin’s mouth.

Even if what he says is undeniable truth.

There was only one reason to say this at this time.

‘What separates the constellations from humans.’

Creating distrust between the two is probably Moebius’s goal.

[I am my child.]

Vega looked at Ojin with somewhat uneasy eyes.

Oh Jin turned his head towards her and chuckled.

“There’s no need to look so nervous. “I have no intention of being swayed by his words.”

It is too difficult to dismiss the Constellation as a mere bystander.

I have received so much from Vega so far.

“Even after hearing the truth, are you still on the side of the Constellation?”

“It’s the truth.”

Ojin looked back at Mobius and smiled.

“The truth is you slaughtered people who didn’t even have stigmata and we are here to stop that.”

“….”

“Don’t act like a victim. “The threat to us now is not the constellations over there, but you.”

“ha.”

Mobius sighed deeply and shook his head.

“is it so. “You can’t understand it just through words.”

He continued speaking, placing his hand on his left chest.

“Then I will show it to you myself. “Their… real faces.”

Wooooow!

A cloud of black light exploded from Moebius’ body and covered the surrounding area.

Shadows covered the ground as if black ink had been spilled on white paper.

A shadow rose from the floor and floated in the air like fog.

A phenomenon that cannot physically exist.

The power of God that shakes the laws and mocks the rules.

“Sanctuary development ‘dark moon’.”

A pure white snake opened its eyes in a world covered in shadows.

“Ugh!”

The sensation of having your whole body entangled by dozens or hundreds of invisible snakes.

Not only could I not breathe properly, but I couldn’t even move my fingertips.

[My child!]

Vega hurriedly flew to Ojin.

[I will give you a blessing right now!]

“Wait.”

It is still too early to use blessings.

Ojin took a deep breath and focused his mind on the stigmata.

The silver light burned brightly and drove away the shadows surrounding the body.

“Whoa!”

Only then can you breathe.

Ojin grabbed the spear and looked around.

‘Where is it?’

Mobius was nowhere to be seen in the shadows that covered the surrounding area like fog.

In times like this, it would be nice to at least activate ‘future vision’.

Even Ursa Minor Stigmata did not react, as if it could not see beyond this pitch-black shadow.

When the soul-drying silence continues like that.

[It’s dangerous!]

The shadow fog stirred and a pure white sword appeared within it.

“Hmph!”

He urgently raised his spear and struck down the sword.

[It’s not over yet!]

“I know!”

The sudden swing of the sword from the shadows did not end in just one attack.

A sharp sword strike from outside the field of vision.

Each and every one of them contained a powerful enough force to be fatal.

Kagang! Kaga River!

Sparks leapt out of the shadowy fog.

I parried dozens, hundreds, and thousands of sword strikes coming from all directions, but the sword strikes continued without interruption.

“haha!”

How much time has passed?

At a time when it was becoming difficult to tell where I was and whether this was the reality.

[Come to your senses!]

With Vega’s shout, my consciousness, which had faded as if melting, suddenly returned.

“Whoa.”

Ojin took a deep breath and violently slashed the spear he was holding towards the ground.

Wooooow!

A silver ray of light spread out around the spot where the window was lowered, brightening up the space covered in dark shadows.

“Hmm. “It’s a shame.”

The appearance of Mobius revealed as the fog clears.

“But it’s already too late.”

What on earth is so late?

Without any time to continue questioning, Mobius swung the sword in his hand.

“Ugh!”

Ojin quickly stepped back and dodged the sword.

‘what?’

In the first place, the person Moebius’s sword was targeting was not him.

Moebius’s sword was pointed at the ‘shadow’ beneath his feet.

“This is the end.”

Mobius plunged his sword into Ojin’s shadow without hesitation.
