Chapter 109 Regression Manual 109

Recall the past (1)

“Hyejin, all of a sudden... ”

“Master, Jeongyan is dead. The cause of death is still unclear, but the best guess is it's suicide. ”

“Yes? What the...? ”

“You may not believe it, but it's true. ”

“I'm sure there's something wrong.... ”

“ ……. ” Tran sl a ted by jp ｍ t l.c o m

“You're really dead. ”

“Yes. The guild members of the Mado Guild confirmed that he was hanged and dead in his room this morning. ”

“By any chance, is this a massacre? About the possibility of assassins coming in... ”

“No, it's definitely suicide. A will was found, and I... I'm not sure about this, but I heard that there were unknown letters in Jeongyan's room. Of course, it's an undeciphered situation because it was magically dealt with, but after hearing the news, other guilds have been thinking about the possibility of communicating with them. ”

“Did you say it was my pain? ”

“It's just a guess. ”

Tr a nslat e d by ｊp m t l.ｃ om “I don't think so. When you think about the achievements that the genius wizard of Lindell has shown you, it's absurdity to think about the possibilities. If I could have made a deal with them, I would have been on their side a long time ago. ”

“The master is right, Hyejin. Without the genius wizard of Lindell, the wire wouldn't have been intact in the first place. It's no exaggeration to say that she's been able to endure it so far. The battle of the Ramadel Mountains, the Battle of the North Frost Wall, and even the Battle of the Benegor were all thanks to Jeongyan. My pain is probably misinformed. Maybe there is a purpose to divide us.... ”

“ ……. ”

“Hyejin, what did the will say?" ”

“I'm sorry, sorry. I heard it said it was there. Of course, I couldn't confirm the expertise because the Mado Guild refuses to disclose it... but they say that there were traces of abuse on the body. ”

“Are you sure you weren't assassinated? ”

“Yes. I've heard that the wounds that remain in your body have always been mine. There are some speculations as to whether they were self-inflicted injuries before they burst. I heard that even though it was treatable with potions or sacred power, it was severely damaged, not only did it leave scars intact, but even the unspeakable parts. ”

“Self-inflicted... ”

“Yes. There's a good chance he really did harm himself, Master. I heard that Jeongyan had a hard time taking lives. After the battle, he always had nightmares, and he was very reluctant to actually join the battle. The one who didn't want to kill any ants suddenly came to the battlefield one day, and it wasn't hard to feel guilty. ”

I thought you had a point.

Given the great wizard of Lindell, Jungyan's personality, it is natural to think so.

‘Standing on the battlefield itself.... ’

It was too much.

“If that's true... then it's entirely my fault. I shouldn't have called her into battle. ”

“That's not it. It's not the Master's fault. The Master wasn't the only one who persuaded Jungyan. Everyone in the Holy Empire, the Republic and the United Kingdom was hoping that Jeongyan would make a move. It was Jeongyan who made his decision last time. It wasn't the Master's persuasion. Jeongyan also said that he was always indebted to the Holy Empire and to the free people of Lindel. If you tried to run and hide, no one would have found you. Jeongyan joined the war for the same reason. ”

“ ……. ” T r a nslat e d by Ｊpm tl.c oｍ

“The reason you have not killed yourself is also not well known. Master, it may be true that you felt guilty, but I don't think he died for it. Of course, what you suffered was undeniable... but you were so proud of what you protected. Jeongyan, who I met at the beginning, was definitely the same person. ”

This is a scene that I have actually seen.

The scene of her not getting along well with humans, smiling faintly after the battle and shaking hands with the soldiers who saved her life, must remain in her memory.

And the conversation we had together.

‘It's rewarding. ’

‘You made a tough decision. ’

‘No, Hyunsung. No, of course it's not hard, but everybody's fighting. And-and I don't just feel bad about it. It feels good to see everyone smiling. Heheh... Thanks for having me. ’

‘No, I'm just thankful. ’

He must have felt guilty.

However, as Jo Hye-jin said, Jeongyan had already realized that it was a pain she had to endure.

Now, there are some things that don't add up because you lost your life because of guilt.

“Then why…. ”

“I'm still trying to figure out why. Guess there's a clue in the magic encrypted letter that every wizard on the continent is still trying to decipher the encrypted object, but it's not easy. ”

“I see.”

It was at that moment when I looked at Hye-jin with a slightly bitter look on my face. Tr an s l at ed by Jp ｍt l .c o ｍ

Kuang!

A thunderstorm came from somewhere, and I wondered if the enemy had come.

Soon after, I had to put down the sword I was holding.

“Kim Hyun-seong!”

“Ah Young Kim! If you do this..."

“Shut up and open the door. I know you're here. Open the door! ”

“Calm down... H-he's in a meeting right now. ”

“You'd better open the door before you say anything nice. Patience is about to floor. ”

It was a very familiar face that flashed into view after the loud noise that was heard again.

“Young lady. ”

“Kim Hyun-seong, you bastard! ”

The immense sword draws nearer and nearer at an instant.

Reflexively raising the sword, the wave echoes with a loud noise once more.

Suddenly, things fly around and the window breaks open that couldn't handle the pressure.

T ran s l a ted b y Jp ｍtl.c om “Son of a bitch! You killed her. ”

“ ……. ”

“You dragged her into the war. You piece of shit! She died because of you! ”

“ ……. ”

“Young... What are you doing? It's the exhibition now. How dare you barge in here like this and point a sword at our guild master! I will formally protest against the guild. ”

“Shut that mouth, Jo Hye-jin. Even for you, I won't stand by while you make fun of me. If you're gonna complain, do it. What's the point of protesting in a situation like this anyway? Do what you want... We're all going to die anyway. Fuck that shit! ”

“But…. ”

“I told you clearly, Kim Hyun-seong? She's not going to go to war... Your lust killed her. ”

“If Jeongyan hadn't been on the front lines, many civilians would have died. Kim Ah-young.”

“Did you not hear me say shut up? I'm asking Hyunsung Kim. ”

“I had no choice. Of course, my master persuaded Jeongyan, but he was there, so he won a lot of battles... ”

“My sister died in all those battles. She's dead! I should have listened to you the first time. ”

“There's nothing yet that explains exactly why you killed yourself. The impact of a battle that killed itself is not yet confirmed. Be sure to check the will or sealed letter correctly. ”

“Is that what you call it? Too many people have already come here to brag about a broken mouth. You filthy hypocrites. I should have listened to him. ”

“Who is that person…. ”

“You don't need to know! ”

“I'm sorry."

“Sounds like you're sorry about the piercing mouth, huh? Kim Hyun-seong, you bastard... A hero? Don't be ridiculous. ”

“But I think a little more calmly... ”

“Shut up. Our guild leaves this shitty alliance. It was absurd to think that the people who were fighting in the first place would become one. It's been too hard working with the Republic and the bastards of the United Kingdom. It wasn't funny that I listened to you. Kim Hyun-seong, the hero who saved hundreds of thousands of people, is a piece of shit. What does that have to do with anything? My sister is dead... My sister is dead! No matter how many people saved their lives with your help, it has nothing to do with me. Do you understand?”

“ ……. ”

“I won't see you again. ”

“Just a moment, Kim Ah-young. ”

“Jo Hye-jin.”

“Jeongyan didn't kill himself because of guilt. ”

“Don't bullshit me. ”

“If you say so, Kim Ah-young won't want you to do this. It's true that He suffered a lot, but I clearly remember Jeongyan who was happy about the people he saved. ”

“ ……. ”

“This situation does not yet have the exact content of the will. We don't really know all the possibilities of an assassination. Maybe there's a clue in a sealed letter or a will. If it turns out that Jeongyan's death has something to do with us after all the research has been done. ”

“ ……. ”

“I apologize for my death. ”

“I don't care about your life. ”

It's strange not realizing what Kim Ah-young wants.

I had to slowly look at her and open my mouth.

“So am I. I will apologize to you as death after everything has been done. ”

“The Master!”

“That's right, Hyejin. I'm sure I'm responsible, too. because after the war was over, I was going to do my own thing. ”

I thought maybe I didn't deserve to be alive.

I've already done a lot of wrong on the way here.

In fact, it's funny to come now and say you're sorry. But I have to do this.

I thought I still had work to do.

It was obvious that Kim Ah-young's expression in front of her was complicated. Maybe she has a lot on her mind, too.

It was at that moment that I was still waiting for an answer.

Boom!!

I heard a noise from somewhere.

Other than that, I had no choice but to realize that the huge sound that resonated actually invaded this place.

“What?"

“We're under attack!”

“Master!”

“We're under attack! Behind the current wall, Hye-jin Jo... Aaaaah! ”

It is a familiar but disparate magical force that rains from the unseen. It was natural for him to move his body because of the mysterious energy that was pouring out at Kim Ah-young.

As you pull the sword across, the split magic begins to completely break down the walls on either side.

“I'll head for the wall now. ”

“Me, I haven't! ”

“We need to gather our strength for now. After everything is done, I will leave my treatment to Young. Now I ask you to lend me your strength. ”

“Damn it.”

“Hyejin, is Cha Hee Ra still in the city? ”

“Yes, there's a signal of reinforcement coming in from 12 o'clock. Maybe the Red Mercenaries are headed that way too... ”

Kwaaaahhhhhhhh!

A white light that swallowed Lindell.

The light coming out of somewhere fills up the surroundings, and at the same time, the closed eyes start to open.
