Chapter 162

Chapter 27. If it were now (6)

The Sispanian space I visited for the second time would be even sadder.

For some reason, I felt that way. Perhaps it was because the person accompanying him was different. Calian tried to think about Alan for a moment.

“This is the place.”

And after calmly mentioning this obvious fact to Plantz, who was following him, he walked briskly and stood in front of the fragment of the axis of time. Plantz, who walked without saying a word, stopped next to Calian.

Planz’s green eyes were seen scanning the fragments of the shaft for a moment. It seemed like he had no idea what this was. It’s natural.

Calian turned his gaze away from Plantz and closed his eyes for a moment without explaining anything.

Bern.

The only complete memory of a person who is no longer there. It was to widen the deep window that contained it.

And I opened my eyes as Bern, who had lived his whole life to protect, lived and fought to protect, and eventually died without being able to protect.

He looked at the golden ring in front of him with his eyes and opened his mouth.

“......The axis of time.”

Will it be poisonous for Kalian and Plantz? Or whether it would be medicine, I still didn’t know. Without realizing it, I started taking them out one by one.

“It was originally in Secretia, and even in the ‘now’ time frame, it was still in Secretia until last year. Then, I heard that it suddenly disappeared, but not long ago, it was found here with only a part of it remaining.”

Like someone’s old story that comes out of nowhere, like an exaggerated experience I heard this morning, like a quite believable folktale in a book.

The words continued to come out of my mouth as if it were none of my business.

“It is an item known to have the ability to turn back time only once. I thought it might be a new product, but nothing has been revealed exactly.”

Bern, who had said that much, turned his red eyes that did not suit him and stood towards Plantz. In that state, I opened my mouth again. It wasn’t resentment, but he had a slightly curious look on his face.

The question is, why did that happen?

“One day, over this, a war broke out between Secretia and Kyris.”

Verne and Chase were trying to protect it from Plantz. I didn’t say that. There was no reason to hurt anyone by saying that.

If you look closely, it is a tragedy that someone has experienced and is still unable to recover from. But from afar, it is just a war between two countries. A simple war with clear causes and consequences. This is the kind of war that has always existed.

Someone won and someone lost.

Some people died and some survived.

Bern now understood that that was all.

So, I chose words so that Plantz could see it at least from a step away. That was the maximum consideration Bern could give.

“under.”

Nevertheless, a sound that sounded like a sigh or a self-mocking sneer came out of Plantz’s mouth.

Plantz was smart.

Ignoring Bern’s consideration, I walked closer and listened to Bern’s words. I realized that one day, Planz had started a war to take that away and that many people had suffered tragedy.

“At best.”

Hidden here.

Even Plantz couldn’t have guessed how much weight the secret he urged everyone to know had.

“Let’s just take that away.”

The voice that says that is already shaking.

Plantz may have thought that what was hidden here was something related to Bern’s secrets, and because of that, he would have wanted to know about the events of Bern that Calian was keeping secret. Bern thought so.

I would never have thought that I would see with my own eyes the cause that directly caused Bern’s death and Secretia’s destruction.

“Yes. Just this.”

After responding like this, Bern took a deep breath.

It had that kind of meaning.

That was Bern’s memory. I didn’t bother to say what the Planz I saw that day looked like. To Planz, Germany was the only certainty, so there was no reason to say it out loud.

“That’s the end of my story.”

After saying this, Bern closed his eyes once again.

I brought back memories that had become so disorganized. He gathered what he had in his hands and placed it back in the deepest part of Kalyan.

After gathering myself like that, I returned to Calian and opened my eyes. Plantz was seen taking a long, silent breath.

A subdued voice continued from Calian’s mouth.

“Like I said, time can only be turned back once, and I heard that the axis of time that was in Secretia disappeared on the day I came. But I found it again in this place. I wanted to destroy it so that it could never be used again. I did, but unfortunately.”

Calian stretched out his foot and touched the tip of his toe in the air in front of him a few times. There was a small sound of my foot hitting something.

“I’m having a hard time because I can’t express my resentment or anger.”

Calian, who refused to take the position that Plants had given him to complain about and only cursed, said this.

Plantz, who listened to everything Calian said without saying a word, opened his mouth quietly.

“okay.”

Since the words did not contain any sentiment, Calian said with a strange smile on his face.

“If you collect it, you may be able to use it. If your memories return, you may want the axis of time again.”

It also meant that the current Plantz might be able to undo the things he regrets the most, and that if the ‘past’ Plantz remembered why he wanted it, he might want to take it back.

“As soon as I finish talking, he barks.”

Plantz responded immediately.

“What should I do to make it disappear?”

And he added this and asked:

I knew very well that it was no longer an opportunity or a blessing. So what I meant was to tell you how to get rid of it.

“Not yet. I don’t know. So I’m thinking of going to see Sispanian.”

Plantz’s eyes narrowed again at the mention of meeting Sispanian, but Calian did not explain. I said I would tell you about Bern, but I didn’t say I would tell you about Calian.

“I’m going to take care of the urgent matters first and then go.”

Plantz, who knew full well that he was the one who caused the ‘urgent matter’, frowned. Soon, Calian looked around at the pieces of the stone wall and then turned towards the stairs.

“wait for a sec.”

Plants called out Kalyan’s steps.

I still had something to ask.

Calian, who was about to leave, turned his head to look at Plantz, and Plantz asked briefly.

“Your name. What is it?”

Calian did not answer right away.

With a face whose thoughts were difficult to read, I turned my head back and looked at the stairs leading outside. It wasn’t because I didn’t know that he was asking me to tell him Bern’s name. I was just dazed for a moment and just stared in silence.

“It’s not difficult to remember. Please tell me.”

If possible, it would be good if you also let us know your age.

Calian, who was standing still a little far away from Plantz, began to laugh. It was a small sound, but it clearly gave off a refreshing laugh.

“I am...”

Calian opened his mouth and showed me all the Bern he had stored inside.

“I’m Calian, brother.”

And then I walked straight into the rain that would wash away all the remaining emotions.

This time too, the age was not disclosed.
