Chapter 388

[ Episode 388. Laplace’s Demon and the Contract ]

Why?

What has changed?

With just one word from the angel (Adrias), Ilias fell into confusion.

“why?”

She looked at Nebro, asking the question involuntarily.

Having gone through countless regresses, no one had ever noticed that she was a regressor.

“how?”

When she asked again, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth.

It was information that was not yet known.

Is that why? Even she, who was not surprised by anything in an unexpected situation, made a mistake at the moment.

“Regressor? What do you mean?”

When Nebro tilted his head and asked, Ilias closed his mouth and looked away without saying anything.

“What is this again? regressor? Are you saying the Ilias will return to the past?”

Freyr also tilted his head and joined the conversation, and Ilias frowned.

“It’s bullshit.”

“But the angel...”

Nebro, who trusted Adrias to the core, said with a bewildered look, and Ilias moved to avoid the topic of conversation as much as possible.

“late. We have to go quickly.”

“Angel, please tell me. Ilias is a regressor?”

Adrias was silent for a moment at Nebro’s question. But soon his will was conveyed.

[“Ilias.”]

“.......”

[“I understand you.”]

Ilias stopped at Adrias’ will.

[“You might think it’s bullshit. It doesn’t matter if you think so.”]

“What do you want to say to Ilias?”

It had never happened before, so Ilias couldn’t ignore this situation.

She turned her head to Neve, to be precise, Adrias.

An angel with seven wings.

In the eyes of Ilias, who can see spirits, Adrias was such a figure.

[“I also have some regrets in my life.”]

“As I live?”

Ilias’s head tilted. Nebro also made a puzzled expression with an incomprehensible face.

-Are you talking about living as a transcendent? funny!

“what! Why are you talking to each other and leaving me alone?”

Green Narae and Freyr interfered, but Adrias stood firm and expressed his will.

[“One of them was trying to shoulder everything by myself.”]

The past 5 years with Nebro.

It wasn’t just Nebro that had changed.

Because I don’t have a body, my worries and contemplation deepened, so I realized many things.

[“It has nothing to do with the weight you carry. It means that no matter how heavy it is, you don’t have to bear it alone.”]

“Angels don’t know Ilias.”

[“okay. i don’t know you But you don’t even know me You don’t know what kind of life I’ve lived and what situations I’ve been through. But it is clear that we can empathize with each other.”]

Adrias’ will was not strong.

It was a soft tone, like a whisper.

[“Ilias, you’ve been working hard up until now. It was a lot of hard work.”]

“.......”

[“You don’t have to carry the burden all by yourself. We are by your side.”]

“Ilias doesn’t want to surrender to hope anymore.”

Ilias did not avert his gaze with a stiff face. Everyone quietly watched her, feeling the spirit of her small but strong will.

“Ilias only believes in Ilias. Only Ilias can fix all of this.”

[“That’s right. After all, the fact that you’ve been regressing must mean that this isn’t an ordinary thing. This is a future that only you can change.”]

“A little while ago, Ilias had an angel.......”

[“Sharing the burden with something that only you can change is another story.”]

Adrias’s will is gradually getting stronger. lost.

“Is it just once? In the beginning, I explained and prepared every time. All failed though.”

“But, this time we’ll find out first...”

“I want to finish the Ilias too.”

Ilias smiled bitterly and approached Nebro. Then, she slowly stroked his cheek.

“Ilias wants to be happy too.”

“I will definitely help.”

“.......”

I see now that Ilias did not have a strong heart. Rather, it felt like my heart was hardened in such a hopeless situation.

51 regressions.

Even if you spend an average of 1 year and return again, it is equivalent to repeating the time of 50 years. Even so, should I say that she is brave because she is not crazy?

“I don’t have time to chat anymore. We must move quickly if Ilias’ plan is not to be ruined.”

“All right.”

“My head hurts.”

Ilias moved first, and the party obediently followed her. At that time, Green Narae, who was watching quietly, suddenly spoke.

-Have you failed?

“huh.”

– Am I dying too?

It was a sudden question, but it was enough to make everyone stop.

-This guy will die, that guy will die, and you will die too?

“.......”

Ilias did not answer.

However, that silence was soon interpreted as a positive meaning and encroached on the surroundings coldly.

“......We’ve died 50 times too. I’m going crazy and freaking out.”

Freyr put on a look of disgust, but he wasn’t frightened.

“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t afraid of dying, but it doesn’t matter.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Ilias finally opened his mouth.

“That’s why Ilias repeats regression.”

Her opal-colored eyes felt particularly dark.

“To make sure no one dies. If even one of them dies, Ilias will return.”

“what. Didn’t you come back because things failed?”

Ilias did not answer Freyr’s question. It was just walking again.

‘I’m greedy.’

And I thought I could understand Ilias’ feelings.

As long as you have the ability to regress, you will not be afraid of failure. Rather, he would try to save everyone and finish the work perfectly.

It was 50 years.

Although Nebro or Freyr may not remember Ilias, Ilias will have 50 years of memories made with them.

‘I won’t be able to give up.’

Perhaps, even if you repeat it forever, or rather, the more you repeat it, the more your affection and thirst for them will only deepen.

Her cold attitude must have been a reflex that was caused by that. The more you get close to them, the more the pain of returning will only increase.

“Angel.”

Nebro quietly grabbed his chest.

“help.”

[“Don’t worry.”]

I don’t know what I was like 50 years ago, but I’m different now. Even though he has no body and is a parasite attached to Nebro, he will do everything he can.

[“How many pills are left now?”]

“About a week left.”

It takes one week for Nebro’s leg to fully heal.

And after a week, Nebro will be stronger.

‘In the meantime, I had to force double casting.’

It was Nebro who used magic every time he floated his body in the air. But if my leg gets better, those restrictions will disappear.

[“I don’t let anyone die.”]

“I believe in you, angel!”

Getting out of this damn world is after everything is done. Even if I could go before then, I wouldn’t go.

I, as Kim Jin-hwan, who was on the verge of finishing a mission once, caught fire.
