I’m not sure if that’s possible.

However, since it was Kaela who spoke of the possibility, there was no other way than to just accept it.

“Well, I think the explanation is roughly over, so I’ll come right away.”

“Wait a minute, Kaela. Right now?”

“Yes. One o’clock is urgent. The effect of the white dragon’s ability has ended, so now it’s really a countdown.”

It was like that. Aside from the fact that I wasn’t mentally prepared, I couldn’t afford it anymore.

Even I unconsciously looked for time to prepare, but she, who was planning to do the work herself, looked surprisingly calm.

“Kaela….”

“Huh?”

“There is no need to do it like this. If something goes wrong with you because of this…”

Hearing my weak voice, Kaela lightly touched my forehead with her finger.

“You fool. Who are you worried about? Do you think I might be wrong?”

“Not really, but…”

It wasn’t that I was genuinely worried that something could go wrong with Kaela.

However, in any case, it was probably a mixture of gratitude and sorry for her who did not hesitate to do hard work to grant what I wanted.

Kaela must have sensed my feelings and answered me without even asking.

“I want to grant anything Eugene asks.”

Kaela smiled softly and closed her eyes, which was rare. Hair returning to silver. I switched with Arjen again.

However, Arjen also did not open his eyes. He just quietly placed his hand on Orha’s head and looked like he was asleep.

“Arjen….”

“It will be fine.”

Wayne and I had to hope that Arjen would succeed.

***

Arjen’s mental world. This space, which was originally supposed to be called the Corridor of Memories, was simply called the Image World after Arjen divided his personality and shared it with him.

“Whoa, things turned out to be more complicated than I thought.”

When Kaela suddenly appeared out of thin air and sighed, Arjen couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked.

“Why? Is it still not possible?”

“It’s not that it can’t be done, but… I guess you could say it’s something I’ve never tried before.”

Kaela said the same thing she said to Eugene in reality to her other personalities in the mental world.

Arjen’s eyes widened when he heard that brilliant idea.

“What is it? Is that really happening?”

“You have to try to find out. Because it’s uncharted territory.”

Those who have been adept at such things since ancient times are dragons. Pioneering the first. In terms of disposition, Kaela, who is close to the most common dragon, even had a strong desire to win in her heart.

Rube opened his mouth as if trying to calm Kaela’s mind.

“Definitely… there is a possibility. However, can the human spirit, which has already been devastated and scattered for 50 years, be gathered together to the extent that it can now be called back?”

“It’s not high, but considering that the probability is still falling in real time, it’s right to start right now.”

The reason Kaela was able to think of this idea and attempt it was because Orha’s body was still alive in the first place.

In order to revive the mind, at least the body had to be alive, and Orha’s body, with Araj’s ability released, is furiously walking towards death again.

It was a task that required sufficient research, but the only source of anxiety Caela felt was that there was no time for it.

“Well, it’s not like using the Corridor of Memories once or twice, is it? Because we have already shared enough details of what we have been doing with Eugene.”

To calm even the slightest element of anxiety, Kaela spoke of the corridor of memories. I didn’t bother to mention the fact that I’ve never used it on anyone else yet.

“Okay. If that person dies, I think Eugene will be depressed for a while.”

When Rube and Kaela nodded to Arjen’s words, there was someone who disagreed.

“Hmph, I don’t know why you’re trying to save that person. Rather, shouldn’t we strengthen discipline by confirming and killing people?”

It was Arjen with orange hair. It was a personality filled with feelings of jealousy.

Arjen urged that immature person to the point of not being able to come out.

“No, you can’t do that. Because I don’t want to see Eugene sad.”

“Che….”

Rube smiled as if he was surprised to see Arjen trying to dissuade him.

“Oh~ The person has really changed? In the past, I would have agreed with Deukdal.”

“I’m a mother now too. You have to show a dignified appearance.”

Arjen says that and clears his throat. Rube’s eyes became red.

“You’ve grown up so well, our Arzen…”

“Eight! Stop acting like your sister! Anyway… If you listen to Eugene’s words, that child is not something to be dismissed as just a human being, but is also a benefactor to us.”

By spreading his sanctuary and calling Stella, he protected Eugene from Akasha.

With that fact alone, Orha was already a benefactor to Arjen.

Even if it wasn’t Eugene’s request, he was willing to try to save his life.

“Now! Then I’ll be back!”

Arjen connected Orha to the corridor of memories. I carefully dip my toes into the memories of others that begin to overflow.

Soon, a sight he had never seen before unfolded before his eyes.

A monastery in an ordinary human village. It was common knowledge that all orphans grew up in monasteries, but it was a refreshing experience for Arjen, a dragon.

‘He looked so similar to me that it was scary, but I guess he was a real human.’

To Arjen, he and Orha looked alike. It was so bad that I wondered if he was my hidden younger brother.

As if trying to eradicate that suspicion, Orha’s childhood was spent honestly leading a typical human life.

Orha’s life was extremely uneventful as she grew up in a monastery and began to follow the path of a nun without becoming independent.

It was rather difficult for Arjen, who had to read her memories and assimilate her emotions as much as possible.

‘I don’t know… I have no idea…!’

It was just difficult because I had no idea where or how to immerse myself in it.

It might have been better if there had been a dramatic moment that led me to believe in Stella.

However, Orha was born in a monastery and developed faith as naturally and naturally as breathing.

This was something that Arzen, who was watching from the side, could not understand.

‘Ugh… it’s harder than I thought…’

The case was different with other personalities. They were beings that originated from Argen himself.

But now I had to project myself into the lives of completely strangers, strangers. It also needs to be seen from a human perspective, not from a dragon’s perspective.

If it had not been a desperate situation, I would have given up without even trying in the first place.

However, the fact that now is a moment from which he cannot back down is what keeps Arjen’s will alive.

‘Eugene, whom I love, was originally human. ‘I can fully understand the human perspective!’

Thinking about the contact, bond, and love with Eugene, I was encouraged that I could do it myself. Arjen filled his will and contemplated Orha’s life again.

‘ah…….’

But soon Arjen had to let out a deep sigh.

This is because Orha’s emotions did not have the right ups and downs until the moment she became a saint.

‘How can this happen….’

In Arjen’s view, Orha was someone who faithfully lived the virtue of moderation.

Orha’s life, which was so static that it could be considered a living self-restraint itself, was nothing short of a miracle.

As she takes on the name of a saint, her surroundings change drastically. Arjen tried as best as he could to understand the feelings of this young woman who suddenly had a great deal of courage that was difficult to fathom.

But it was impossible. No matter how you look at it, there was nothing around Orha that could rightly be called ‘stimulation’.

It only feels awkward for a moment when the surrounding environment changes, but as soon as adaptation is finished, the world returns to colorless.

Even Orha’s adaptation speed was very fast.

This was entirely due to the special nature of the religious group.

John, a layperson, Sister Anna, a priest, and Lord Folt, a paladin, all worshiped Stella and received divine power in the same way, with only differences in position and degree.

In the end, it is said that no matter who it is, there is no difference in Orha, who is a hot topic as a saint who has appeared for the first time in a long time in history.

Even the Pope was paying respect to the existence of a saint who was rarer than a warrior, so there was no need for others to comment.

What Arjen felt were the virtues of humility, charity, kindness, patience, chastity, and self-control that were firmly maintained even in such a patronizing environment.

Orha’s life is leisurely and hard-working, but it is by no means lazy.

The mere fact that humans maintain the six virtues without becoming crooked is something that deserves praise.

The only problem is that it is a dull life that does not appeal to Arjen at all.

‘I’m in big trouble…’

You have to empathize somehow. I had to somehow go along with it and boost my emotions.

Recalling the memories and enjoying the emotions of that time would stimulate the spirit of Orha, who had virtually died in the past 50 years.

With that premise alone, Arjen used the Corridor of Memory.

However, it is an anxious situation with no income at all.

Coincidentally, the wind of change began to blow in that situation on the day Eugene visited the Vatican.
