Chapter 267

I am not a returner Episode 267

Interlude – Ninth Memory (1)

A long tongue flutters like a snake.

Cassia sniffed with narrowed eyes.

The scent of an unfamiliar woman deeply embedded in Oh Jin’s body.

“It’s not even Bella’s scent...”

Emerald eyes, shining with an eerie murderous spirit, turned to Ojin.

Ohjin’s body stiffened like a frog in front of the snake.

Cassia licked the nape of Ojin’s neck with her long tongue and narrowed her eyes.

“Whose smell is it?”

“That’s...”

Cold sweat running down my forehead.

A chill spreads down my spine.

‘Why are two sisters doing this?’

Sometimes Isabella would give me a scary look that would make me feel cold, but Cassia’s eyes were even more threatening.

“Hmm. What happened? Just by looking at what you said to me, I think I know what kind of man Mr. Oh Jin is.”

Cassia glanced at Ojin with a fierce look and turned her head with her arms crossed.

Looks like it’s tightly sprained.

Oh Jin sighed with an embarrassed expression.

“So what is the item you said you would give me earlier?”

I urgently changed the topic.

Cassia glared at him with sharp eyes, as if she didn’t like the blatant change of topic, but then lightly clicked her tongue and stretched out her hand toward the shadow.

A cracked black gem rose from her shadow.

“This is...”

“It’s a holy relic that the Heavenly Demon used when he took control of my consciousness.”

“Why are you doing this to me?”

“The power of the Black Sky resides within this. “Same as the one Mr. Oh Jin has.”

“....”

Two black cloths.

I still didn’t know how two powers other than the standard called Black Heaven could exist.

What the Heavenly Demon possessed was undoubtedly the same Black Heaven as himself.

“I think Mr. Ojin can figure out why there can be two Black Heavens.”

“So you’re giving this to me?”

“yes.”

I don’t know if we can really find out the reason just from this shattered jewel.

“thank you.”

There was no reason not to take it.

“Oh, and one more thing...”

Cassia lightly chewed her lips as she handed the black jewel to Ojin.

“Sooner or later, the ‘kings’ of the Demonic World will make their move.”

“king?”

“yes.”

Cassia nodded.

“Did you know that Named’s movements have become more active recently?”

Know.

And that the Heavenly Demon exists behind it.

“Many of the monsters now commonly called ‘named’ were subordinates of the king in the past in the Demonic World. “Intelligent, cunning and organized.”

“Are you saying we are no different from humans?”

“yes. “Because there is something called ‘civilization’ in the Demonic Classics.”

Come to think of it, when I was heading out of the magic world on Poppy, I came across a huge castle and city.

“If the kings of the Demon World start to move... a disaster like 10 years ago might happen again.”

“....”

10 years ago, the day the gate to the Demonic World opened for the first time.

The worst disaster in human history, in which dozens of countries collapsed and billions of people were massacred.

Does this mean that the Heavenly Demon is planning to create that terrible hell on Earth once again?

‘Is the next king of the Demon World after the Black Star Society?’

A deep sigh flowed from Ojin’s mouth.

“Then I’ll just leave.”

Cassia slightly lifted the hem of her dress and bowed gracefully.

“Take care of yourself until I come back, Mr. Ohjin. No... Heavenly Demon.”

Cassia, with a bright and pretty smile, approached Ohjin.

side. He stood up and lightly kissed my cheek.

“....”

A soft touch on your cheek.

Looking at Cassia, who was smiling so brightly, I could understand why the King of the Toads had risked his life and pretended to be the Heavenly Demon to get her.

Slurp.

Cassia’s body disappeared into the shadows with a sound like a snake crawling on the ground.

A bitter silence fell on the hospital rooftop, as if something had happened.

Oh Jin frowned and focused again on the memories flowing in.

-Now that I think about it, what happened before? I heard that a gate has appeared in Mok-dong.

– Well... something strange happened.

-strange thing?

-huh.

Woohyuk Lee nodded and continued speaking.

-It seems like the relic we found there was replaced by someone else.

-You were replaced?

-uh. So I did some research, following the traces of the original relic... and found some strange guy wandering around the gate.

-who?

-It was a guy named Eugene.

Eugene.

As Ojin, it was a name I hadn’t heard in a very long time.

-What did he... say? Ah, ‘Satellite Bridge’. He said he was a member of Satellite Church.

-Something like a pseudo-religion?

-well. To just say it’s a pseudo... Because something bothers me.

Lee Woo-hyuk narrowed his eyes.

-I guess I need to do some more research.

-I can help too...

-Brother, just get discharged from the hospital.

Lee Woo-hyuk gets up with a light scolding.

Despite his nickname, Black Lion, he looked quite relaxed in front of his brother.

The last thing we see is Lee Woo-hyuk turning around and leaving the hospital room, closing the door.

Chijijijijik.

My distorted vision returned to its original state.

“...What is this, the end?”

Oh Jin frowned with a helpless expression on his face.

Well, there isn’t a law that says only useful memories can be passed down, but this was the first time that useless memories were passed down to a random partner like this.

“Hey.”

A situation that makes you feel disgusted.

No matter how many times I looked back on my memory, it was a miscellaneous memory that I couldn’t think of where I could use it.

‘Maybe I was expecting too much.’

Ojin clicked his tongue and turned around.

Even if you don’t have any memories gained through transmission, the level of Black Heaven’s Bloom has risen, so that’s all you need to soothe your regrets.

“...uh?”

Something.

An intuition that cannot be expressed in words.

An instinct that cannot be expressed in words.

He held onto his steps.

“Wait a minute....”

Like discovering that a puzzle you thought you had completed was actually misaligned.

Like when you realize that the first puzzle piece you put up turns out to be a piece from another puzzle.

Something.

Something.

Something.

Something.

weird.

It’s distorted.

It’s twisted and twisted.

“That doesn’t make sense....”

Yes.

nonsense.

It cannot be explained through common sense.

I don’t understand it logically.

Does not fit.

It doesn’t fit together.

“why...?”

Nine memories.

Probably over 10 memories passed down, including the memories obtained through déjà vu.

why.

Why why why why why

why.

Not once.

Not a single word.

Not even one letter.

“The name Black Holy Society... can’t be mentioned?”

Since when.

Does this mean that Eugene became an apostle of the Satellite Church rather than the Black Holy Church?
