Chapter 639

Kishiar was not unaware of what being in a similar situation to Yuder meant. As his gaze rapidly shifted, Yuder continued to speak.

"Frankly, I was surprised only because the subject was His Majesty the First Emperor. Enon had been speculating for some time that there might have been someone like me in the past. If the hidden content in the journal is true, then that speculation is finally proven."

"If he has always thought so, was there some basis for this speculation?"

Yuder hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should reveal more, but his deliberation was brief.

He already knew from Enon himself that Enon was no ordinary human. To explain the situation, he felt the need to preemptively establish Enon's extensive knowledge about the Archmage Luma.

"Enon knows things about the Archmage Luma that others do not. According to him, Luma was secretly conducting some research before leaving the Empire."

"Just like the First Duke Tain, his disciple."

"Yes."

Kishiar did not ask why Enon knew so much about Luma. He was only interested in the core of Yuder's statement.

"What exactly was the research about? Was it on a similar theme to the Duke's?"

"No, what he studied was..."

Yuder murmured, gazing into the darkness unfolding before them.

"...a method to reverse time."

It was an unprecedented feat, yet one that Yuder Aile had personally experienced.

Yuder recalled the words Enon had spoken after discovering his secret.

The Archmage Luma had long secretly studied magic to reverse time. Despite being a formidable mage who created beings like Enon, he failed to achieve results and eventually left the Empire.

Enon speculated that Luma might have started this bizarre research after encountering someone like Yuder who had traveled back in time. Finally, in the hidden last pages of the First Duke Tain's research journal, he found something to support this theory.

'If everything written here is based on fact, then the subject might have been the First Emperor of this nation.'

He couldn't be sure, but the important thing seemed to be that both the First Duke Tain and Luma believed it.

The legendary Archmage and his disciple, a Duke descended from the First Emperor, were intelligent and remarkable enough to believe such a tale. What could have happened to make them believe in such a story?

The time when both began their strange, secretive research coincided with the demise of the First Emperor. One sought to control the flow of time, researching the origins of monsters, while the other endeavored to create magic that could directly reverse time.

Though their approaches differed, both were linked by their research on time.

Could it be that the First Emperor of the empire, like Yuder, was someone who had returned by reversing time?

"To sum up... both the Archmage Luma and the First Duke Tain conducted secret research related to time, possibly because of the First Emperor who founded this Empire. If he was indeed a being like you, then surprisingly, everything makes sense."

"Yes."

Kishiar, not smiling as usual, seemed to weigh his thoughts in a long silence, indicating he did not take the situation lightly.

As time passed, he finally spoke again.

"Though you might already know, records from that era are scarce," began Kishiar, with a hint of bitterness. "It was believed right to destroy the belongings of the deceased, and due to the limitations of technology, even proper paper was scarce. This led to the priests rigorously memorizing the scriptures of the Sun God to prevent loss, combining oral tradition with the little documentation that survived."

Most of the records that remained were reconstructions by later generations, mixing oral tales with scant historical evidence. Kishiar let out a brief, sardonic laugh.

"What do you see?"

"The same as before."

"Then, there's no reason to be deceived."

Kishiar rotated his wrist, casually scanning the surroundings. A surge of golden magic flowed from his red eyes, signaling his intention to use magic as an Awakener.

Yuder's eyes responded to Kishiar's magic, shining even more intensely.

"This place, unlike the Tainu's underground prison, is not an appropriate location for a protection mechanism that can only be opened by blood relatives. So, our options are quite straightforward. I've studied a bit to avoid the frustration of missing the way like before, even when it's right in front of us."

With a smile, Kishiar began to cast his spell.

[BL] Bermuda

Leonardo Blaine, the true war hero of the Raina Logia Empire and the commander of the Armsilver 11th Squad, is dishonorably discharged for disobeying orders during the final battle that could have led the Empire to victory in the territorial war. People criticize and point fingers at him, and after being released on parole from prison, he disappears without a trace.

Three years later, his name has been forgotten by the world. The Council has been persistently pursuing him, but he has proven difficult to capture. Frustrated by this, Hugo Agrizendro, the commander of the Council's army, decides to personally apprehend him.

"Since when have you been watching me?"

Leonardo was calculative and astute, so it wouldn't be surprising if he had been observing Hugo for some time now. However, Leonardo's answer was something that even Hugo had not anticipated.

"From the very beginning."

[BL] Cloudless Sky

Jin Soram, the top-ranked hunter representing South Korea's Rift Phenomenon Management Headquarters, is stronger than anyone else and lazier than anyone else. As soon as he arrives at the office, he buries himself under a blanket and falls asleep. When he goes out on a mission, he causes accidents and returns to the office, often shirking his duties.

"Do you know how it feels to play a game that's already messed up? ...Anyway, the next round will come, so this time, I'm just going to play it recklessly."

In fact, his true identity is someone who has regressed through three lives, trying to save the world from the Great Rift but failing each time. After repeating a life where he couldn't sleep peacefully even for a day, he became completely exhausted before this life even began.

"I know. You worked hard, Jin Soram."

And then there's Han Tae-un, the man who saved Soram and died in all three previous lives. As he did in every life, he comes to Soram's side once again. The Great Rift is approaching soon. It's impossible to resolve it in this life without any preparation. Soram vows to save Tae-un in this life and die himself. At least, he won't let Tae-un save a failure like himself again.

"For now, until then, let's sleep..."

As Soram sluggishly lives his life waiting for that moment, a gradual change occurs in his heart.

'I thought this was a messed-up round... but I want to live a little longer here.'
