Chapter 103: Summon

The lunch break was over but Neul was still spending his time on the bench with his empty cans of coke. His bleeding stopped but the blood stain on his shirt looked like he was beaten up by someone pretty bad. His expression, his way of talking and his eyes were filled with sorrow that Ijin was curious. He wanted to know what happened after seeing him in that state.

"Hey man, let's take you to the infirmary. You need some rest don't you?"

Neul looked at him and saw he was really handsome. Dark short hair with pointy black eyes. A pure Asian that he hadn't seen for many years so he was staring at his face.

"Why are you staring at my face?"

"No, it's nothing."

Suddenly, he felt a light presence of mana going behind the boundary of the college. It was so little but in a manaless area, the presence of mana was standing out. So he jumped on the boundary to check and saw a boy with a wooden sword going towards the college gate. His jacket looked like he was from the same college.

What the hell?

Ijin also jumped to see what he was trying to do and saw he was staring at a boy who was famous for his swordsmanship. He was a national champion.

"What are you looking at?"

"That boy. Do you know who he is?"

"Oh, that? He's the sword demon. He's from a rising martial artist family."

"Wait, do you mean he's a swordsman"

"Yes. He's good with sword."

So people really have mana within their bodies and yet they don't know how to use it. They make their body strong with the effect of mana unintentionally.

"This is really interesting..."

Neul jumped off the boundary and said, "Anyway, I'll go now. And thank you for the ice pack. I'll treat you something good someday."

Neul took his bag and again crossed the boundary to leave the college. He wanted to see the city after a long time.

The city was the same as before. The buildings that stand high, the park, the old coffee shop near the college street and the small karaoke near an old restaurant.

Everything was the same except for one person who was slowly walking by the street. He was gazing at everything as if he never saw anything in his life before. Even a tree on the sidewalk caught his eyes.

I'm really thankful to the creator even though he wanted me dead.

But I've spent too much time with Adonis that I'm really missing him now. I wonder what he is doing alone...

Neul went inside a small shop to try using the claw machine. The new stuffed toy inside had orange eyes so it reminded him of Adonis. So he wanted to get one and he won 4 of them. His hands became full in one go.

I can't use my dimension pocket now because people will notice.

So he kept those small stuffed toys in his hands and left the shop to go inside a small alley. He had something to do inside his dimensional room.

Inside his dimensional room, he had tons of treasures and weaponry that never used in his whole life. The greenhouse was also attached to his room so he ate some fruit from the other plant to fill his stomach.

Should I teleport into my old town? I want to see my old home.

He thought about it for some minutes and decided not to go or he will start to cry after seeing his old apartment complex after a long time.

Suddenly, he remembered something and unconsciously, his mouth started to move and a word came out,

"Mom"

Is she doing alright?

Nah... I don't want to get attached to my past anymore. I have a lot of things to do.

He came out of his dimension room and saw a group of thugs beating a little kid in that alley.

Now, what-_-.

"Hey, what's going on"

Neul walked towards the kid and saw she was badly injured by the thugs from the girl's school. They probably wanted money but the kid was empty.

"You kids are really high these days. Why don't you leave that kid on the ground and go back from wherever you came from. I'm really not in a mood today."

"Ah, oppa is so cruel. How can you scold us when we are just punishing someone who didn't keep her promise? Why don't you come with us and we can have some fun?"

Neul picked up the fainted kid on his shoulder and said, "Make a way please if you don't want to become bald."

His eyes were so cold that the girls simply left. They were scared to see his cold expression.

Tsk! Now what am I going to do with his kid?

A man was passing by so he took the chance and left the girl and ran away. He didn't want any problem so he just flew away with invisibility to avoid the public eye.

I know the city is really beautiful but flying through the building is awesome. I wish I could live like this forever.

The sun was already setting on Seoul's yellow sky. He kept floating around the city from here and there to calm his impatient heart down. He was worried about everyone even though he knew everyone was fine.

"Man, I really am a coward."

Suddenly, his phone inside his pocket rang and saw Jin calling him. His bodyguard who's supposed to keep an eye on him 24 hours a day couldn't find Neul in the college so he was devastated.

Neul picked up the phone and all he could hear was Jin's screaming. "Young master!! Where are you!! Why aren't you inside the college?"

I see, that elder punk already got the news that I'm not inside the college. Tsk!

"I'm somewhere else and I can't go home today. I'll see you tomorrow or the day after."

"What!!"

Neul switched off his phone and went onto a tall building roof to gaze at the sunset. The cold breeze was passing through his warm body as he drew a big magic circle on the floor. His dyed hair was reflecting the yellow light of the sun that nearly reached the horizon full of skyscrapers.

The magic circle was drawn without any fault.

This will be enough.

He inserted some of his fragment mana into the circle and it started to glow brightly. His summoning process was going successfully.

As the circle was vanishing from its edge, a bright human-like object was forming in the middle. He knew he was going to get a punch after summoning him but he was an important part of his next plans.

The circle almost vanished and surprisingly, the bright human-like object started to move. It was looking around as if it was confused but when the magic circle disappeared, the human-like object took its real form and colour.

Hair that looked like space with twinkling dots that resemble stars and eyes that looked like dark space with bright sun in the middle. If today's people look into his eyes, they'd assume that he tattooed it.

It was Astraeus, the guardian of stars and moons, who descended on earth for the first time.

"It's been a while, Rae."

Rae looked at an unknown face but the aura doesn't lie. His eyes, his face and his voice might be different. But the soul and its aura never lies. He immediately knew who it was and instead of punching him, he clawed to his legs and grabbed them tightly as if he was begging.

His tears came out of his dark space-like eyes and started to cry like a kid who lost his mother in the crowd.

"Vik,.. I'm a fool..."

Neul sat down in front of him and said, "Me too."

Neul couldn't say anything after that all he heard was Rae's screaming and panting. He was so frustrated that he gave up while he was in deep sleep and lost all of his hopes. He was stuck on a lonely planet that was out of reach of any living beings or even the heaven guardian. He was at the edge of the universe, sleeping alone for more than one hundred years.

After a while, he finally stopped crying and looked into his eyes clearly.

"Vik, what are you doing inside this body? What happened to your real one?"

"Oh, looks like you left before I could introduce myself to you. I'm Elerous, the guardian of records. I'm going through my 3rd reincarnation so call me Neul now. I just died this morning and took over this body."

Rae wasn't surprised at all because he already suspected him as a guardian. But he was flabbergasted that he was Elerous, the most wanted criminal of the universe who died seven hundred thousand years ago. n--OVeLB1n

"Heh! You never fail to surprise me, Vik. But what's with that name Neul? Moreover, where are we?"

Neul laughed and said, "We're on the planet earth. This is South Korea and we're currently in Seoul. You can say it's the hometown of my 1st reincarnation after I died as Elerous."

"These towers are sure strange looking. And why is this area so populated? It looks like an ant territory."

Rae walked closer to the edge of the roof barefoot and sat down on the killing edge to see the evening view. Slowly, the lights of the city were turning on and he quickly lost his thoughts after seeing the dazzling beauty of human civilization.

"Vik, just what kind of world is this..."

"It's just a city where magic is nothing but a concept from fantasy. This world is purely made out of human hard work without a single touch of magic. Humans are really interesting, right?"

Rae gazed at the city lights as the night was falling with a heavy heart. But deep down, he was happy that Viktor didn't forget about him. He already gave up on him but when he saw Viktor summon him, he couldn't help but cry.

"Hey, about your dress. I think you need to change into something from this era."

I need to make an ID for him but I should wait until Adonis comes. Because I don't want to go through the same problem twice.

"Hmm. The outfit you're wearing looks ordinary but comfortable."

Suddenly, he turned his old dress to just like Neul was wearing but a deep blue one. He became a young decent man from a decent family. He also changed his eyes colour into a normal human like to blend into society.

"What a convenient magic spell. Teach me."

"No."

"...-_-."

"Come on.. Why would you need a spell like this when you have tons of money? I'm a poor guy."

"Nevermind. I was just curious."
