Time goes back-2
A clue to regression. Considering what I’ve known and guessed so far, I can say it’s not too many.
That’s because I didn’t think deeply about it.
It’s just that the miracle of turning back time and trying everything I do again has reached me. I just treated it as such an opportunity.
why do you return Why does time go back to the summer days of my twenties?
You could go back to just before you died, maybe you could go back to when you were a kid before it all started.
If that’s the case, you might have spent more time thinking about it and finished everything with a few regressions.
All of a sudden, I go back to the summer days of my twenties,
It wasn’t too long ago that I questioned whether I was going back to a pretty difficult period when my own actions were constrained.
When searching for artifacts, no information about the moon stone could be found.
As if it did not exist in the first place, it was a relic called Moon Stone that had been erased from all over the world.
The questions that arose there, the awkward parts overlapping one after the other, continued until here.
The meaning of the letters written on the wall of this ruin was too simple.
It’s simple, but it solves some of the questions I’ve had so far.
[The incompetent goddess couldn’t interfere with time, so she couldn’t help the great dragon hiding in the twisted time.]
“So what’s left is the thought.”
It is said to be a seal, but in the picture left on the mural, the dragon was divided into two.
To put it bluntly, it was divided into mind and body, and what was said to have been sealed would be the body of the dragon.
There is no such thing as a thought that has lost its power over time.
It was only an illusion that it was weakened, but the thought still had its own strength.
My hands following the mural became busy.
The speed of reading the text and the speed of comprehending it and putting it in my head was gradually increasing.
It took a lot of knowledge to understand and accept all of this as mine.
Gathering the information on the dragon that he had learned through Arwen was a fleeting task.
My eyes narrowed as I read the mural again.
He already knew that turning back time was a dragon’s ability. However, I didn’t think much of it.
Because it was judged that if it was an artifact containing the power of a god, it would be possible to make the moon goddess return again.
However, in this mural, it was resolutely denied.
The moon goddess cannot interfere with time. The only thing that can interfere with time and take advantage of that twisted time is only one being called the evil dragon.
In other words, this artifact called Moon Stone was not made by the Moon Goddess.
“…then.”
The outstretched hand pointed to a mural painting of a dragon hidden in time.
It was a very simple thing to do with a dragon that had stolen its body. to get my body back.
Shouldn’t you regain your body and destroy this world created by the moon goddess?
However, finding my body in a twisted time was not so easy.
[Since time is such a complex concept, the great dragon hidden within that concept sought a way to regain a body. A body that could accept the spirit that pursues the name of destruction, and one that could accept its own mind and still be fine. If possible, a body close to the intellect.]
If you think of the intellectuals that exist in the world, they are heterogeneous and human.
If so, did you try to contact the different races? The answer to that question was what was drawn on the next mural.
All of the different races that fought against the dragon that came out of time were dead,
It was a picture of those who were kicked out and running away into a huge forest.
The moment I saw the huge forest, I couldn’t help but laugh.
The forest where the different races live, in terms of empire, it’s southern.
Isn’t the huge forest that can be said to be the center of the continent known as the home of different races?
[The dragon has killed all who oppose him. Terrified, the different races fled to the forest in search of a way to survive, and the great forest would become their home for a long time.]
It sounded like predicting the future, but it was close to the truth. Even now, a thousand years after the dragons disappeared, aren’t the different races still there? Although it was temporarily taken away when the empire flourished, even then, the forest belonged to the different races.
Since the other races rejected the dragon, they thought that the next body they found would be a human.
There is only one intelligence capable of accepting the spirit of a dragon that transcends time.
He paused for a moment and wiped his face.
Adele, who had approached me before I knew it, was staring at me blankly.
It seemed to notice that he was reading this text.
Even if you don’t know the content, you probably already realized that this content is serious.
“Let me… read a little more.”
“Do it yourself. Because it looks serious.”
The hand that went forward pointed to another mural.
The text was a little blurry, but what the pictures and text meant was, as I expected, a dragon contacting a human.
Humans found the existence of dragons interesting, and all beings did not reject the dragons that fought against the gods.
In fact, isn’t there a 10% of the empire that doesn’t worship the moon goddess?
Adele, who was closely watching the humans who had acted in favor of the dragon, pursed her lips.
“Are you with the dragon?”
“I still don’t have enough clues to explain in detail, but yes. I guess you could look at it that way. It’s about regression.”
Adele frowned at the word regression.
Because I know that when I die, time goes back.
Perhaps it was awkward to talk about it directly, but after clearing her throat several times, Adele cautiously continued.
“If it’s a regression, you’re talking about what you’re going through.”
“I think it’s an explanation of that, but…A lot of things are different anyway.”
The subject of the return is neither the moon goddess nor myself. Then who is the creator of the moon rock?
Thoughts about him, of course, had no choice but to lead to the dragon.
The only existence that can interfere with time. If this mural is not distorted,
There was only one thing I could judge from these ruins that still resonate with the moon stone.
The fact that the moon stone was made by the dragon. That I am living in the repetition of time created by the dragon.
why? After a while, I realized that the content of the mural was over.
Exactly, it was erased. It is not that someone erased them, but the paintings that could not last for a long time and were erased.
The blurry letters were clearly referring to time, but the lack of data was evident.
If you want to find information about this place, you should probably get help from the church.
If not, he might need help from Arwen.
At least at this point, she must be the one who knows the most about the dragons.
She hadn’t been to these northern ruins either, so maybe these ruins would be quite helpful in her research.
“Did you find anything?”
He shrugged his shoulders as he looked at me.
If I were to ask if I was looking for something, I would have found it, but in fact, the question was only amplified, and I couldn’t find anything clear.
The only thing he could find was that the moon stone might belong to the dragon.
My return is intentional.
It must be that it wasn’t a return only for me, with the dragon’s intentions to recover my body in the twisted time.
I tried to think pleasantly, but there was no such thing. However, he seemed to be smiling.
As much as I was with Adele, I didn’t want to show my confusion…
“Do you think you’ll look okay if you smile like that?”
Even so, the corners of my mouth twisted at the words that penetrated my heart at once.
I tried to hide it, but was it obvious? Adele stared at me, narrowed her eyes, and let out a small breath.
He muttered that he had come to the ruins for no reason, then came to me and took my hand and opened his mouth.
“sorry. to bring you here.”
“…you don’t have to be sorry. It is something I have to think about.”
“Then I should be even more sorry. If it’s a problem for you to think about, now I’ll have to think about it too.”
I didn’t understand the meaning of the words for a moment, but then I understood and looked at Adele.
Even when he said that, he didn’t show the slightest hint of shame.
Rather, as if it were natural, it was me who was taken aback by his self-confident attitude.
“Now I don’t want to hear you say it’s a secret. I thought about it since I remembered that I had more time with you, but I shouldn’t have secrets. you and me.”
“I’m not trying to keep it a secret-“
“You’re probably trying to hold me alone so I don’t have to worry about you. don’t i know you know. About what thoughts you live on, and what feelings you try to hide from me.”
Even as Adele approached with great strides, I did not take a step back.
Rather, I stood still as if to come closer, but Adele, who had come closer, put her lips in front of my nose.
A gap that seems to touch if you move even a little.
As I smiled bitterly at the sweet scent coming from the front, the woman with a smile continued.
“If you’re looking for something, I’m going to follow you this time. No matter what you say, it doesn’t change. You can block it if you want to block it. If you intend to tie me down somewhere, do so.”
“Why would I do that to Adele? However, it is a dangerous thing to do. Do you know what the name Seryong means?”
The dragon wasn’t simply related to me.
It was related to the prince, and the prince was the person involved in Adele’s death.
So, I wanted to move away from Adele as much as possible.
It was the first time, but it was painful to even consider that small possibility.
Should he think that he was forced to do this even though he knew that he was killed by the crown prince?
No, I was thinking in a slightly different direction.
It was affection for me rather than coercion, and I was able to understand it better because I had understood her heart to some extent in my past life.
“You didn’t always put yourself first. You said you didn’t want me to know because it was dangerous? I hate that more. It’s more annoying to have to know that you’re doing something dangerous. So, this time we will go together. No matter what you say, no matter how you block it.”
With eyes more determined than ever, the woman resembling a cold winter continued.
“I decided so.”
