Chapter Index

    [If you resist, you will only get tired.]

    Seongju approaches closer. To enter my mental world.

    If that happens, it will be quite difficult.

    Of course, my mental power is high so I won’t be brainwashed, but my memories can be stolen. Then the truth about the regression will also be discovered.

    I don’t want to be embarrassed by finding out that I was a lion in my past life.

    I have to escape somehow.

    “What if I refuse?”

    [There is no choice but to force it.]

    Wow~

    Black energy covers the world.

    I feel like I’m trapped in that guy’s powerful energy. Among them, he’s the only one walking in front of me.

    What should I do?

    Should we attack first?

    No, that’s crazy.

    You cannot defeat Seongju in direct combat.

    So should I respond to the mental attack? There is a minimal possibility there. Maybe I can know the secret of the castle lord.

    But it’s a risky gamble.

    If you fail, this life itself may be ruined.

    You have to get out of here without colliding with Seongju. Then, how about dealing with Ravietta, who maintains the hidden world?

    Of course, it’s not easy.

    Labieta is the castle lord’s closest confidant.

    He is a strong demigod.

    Nevertheless, the most likely one is this one-

    “Don’t think nonsense.”

    Suddenly Labieta appeared behind me.

    Oops.

    He hit the player first.

    It seemed like he realized my intention.

    Tiring!!

    ◎︎ The Shackles of Sacrifice are activated.

    ◎︎ Seals the opponent at the cost of the caster himself. The stronger the caster’s capabilities, the stronger the seal’s power. Neither of them can make any moves until the seal is broken.

    At the same time, the book he was holding exploded and came out with black energy.

    Must be avoided.

    Regardless of Labieta’s powerlessness, the energy inherent in the book is something that transcends the 9-star level. If you get caught, no matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to escape.

    If you’re not careful, it will end like this.

    You have to get out right away.

    Tsupa!-

    but.

    [It’s already late.]

    Tup!!

    Seongju came right in front of me and pushed me as if she wouldn’t allow me to run away. It was definitely a slow movement, but the black energy surrounding her pulled me in like a black hole and I couldn’t avoid it.

    Did you prepare everything in advance?

    Just trying to catch me?

    damn.

    “Whoop!!”

    ◎︎ Abnormal powers appear.

    ◎︎ Your body will be strengthened twice.

    Force is compressed and released backwards.

    It boosted morale.

    Quaaa!!

    It threw away the castle pillar and fell to the side.

    Shoo!!

    The black energy coming out of the book chases me at a crazy speed.

    Once activated, it cannot be avoided.

    Before that, you have to kill Labieta.

    ◎︎ The protection of the ice mountain rests upon you.

    ◎︎ Temporarily increases ice power significantly.

    Damn it!!!!

    After summoning the ice barrier, I pushed it away with both hands.

    Overlapping throw 6th level.

    Kuhua Ah !!!!!

    Damn it!!!!

    Fraud and numerous ice shards intersect.

    “No way.”

    However, Ravietta summoned another book and opened it, and the attack was absorbed into the book.

    That guy sucks on that item!… .

    Tsupot!!

    It moved again.

    You must not stop.

    The moment I touch the black energy, transcendent power will stop everything in my life.

    However.

    [Give up. Even if you struggle, it will only become annoying, and you will not be able to escape.]

    The damn Seongju bastard sent something at me.

    Phew!!!

    It is a mental attack.

    For a moment, I felt like my soul was gone. However, I have no intention of letting you go easily. After hesitating for a moment and falling down, he placed his upper body on the ground, did a somersault, and then jumped again.

    But the situation is worst.

    A black energy is approaching.

    To begin with, Labieta is a guy whose victory or defeat cannot be guaranteed even if he fights one-on-one. That guy used the fearsome forbidden book that came at a cost to me without hesitation, and Seongju is helping him do it again.

    In other words, no matter how much you struggle, it is of no use.

    They are determined to capture me.

    I know that, but I’m so angry that I can’t stop. This ridiculous fight continued for two more minutes.

    And at some point.

    “That’s it.”

    “Huh?… .”

    Labieta held on to me with both arms, even taking a direct hit from my attack. At the same time, black energy came out and entangled Labieta.

    ⊙︎ Shackles of sacrifice (true).

    To save the world from destruction, thousands of apostles sacrificed their own lives to imprison evil spirits. The world was peaceful for a thousand years, but the evil spirit released from the seal destroyed the world in anger, and a remnant of that consciousness remained here.

    -There is no escape if the price is good enough.

    -The seal lasts up to 10,000 years.

    ◎︎ It has the same weight as the sacrificial labieta.

    ◎︎ Shackles hell carries you.

    … Honestly, it was a natural result.

    From the moment I stepped into the library, I was in their hands. In the first place, it was weakened due to limitations in the magic core distance. There is no way I can handle it.

    I never would have thought that I would regret heeding Attrot’s advice.

    ‘ah… ‘No way!!’

    The disciple screams inwardly. He looks very surprised that I was suddenly caught.

    But I can’t help this either.

    There is now only one choice left.

    Continuing the mental battle with Seongju.

    If your goal is not to kill me, but to look into the spirit world… .

    You too must be prepared.

    Shrrrr!!

    Black energy covers everything.

    ◎︎ Sealing begins.

    My body suddenly stiffens and I lose strength.

    I want to maintain my consciousness, but will the seal erase even that?

    My mind slowly sinks.

    Into the abyss.

    *

    [stop.]

    Wow!!!-

    Seongju stretched out his hand.

    At the same time, Ravietta, who was sleeping with Dirus, was pushed backwards.

    dump.

    The seal was broken.

    instead… Dirus was incapacitated and fell down.

    [This is a power unsuited to a demigod. Sooner or later, a new deity will be born.]

    “… What do you plan to do with this person?”

    [well.]

    Seongju quietly looked down at Dirus.

    To be honest, I didn’t intend to do this, but I kept feeling uncomfortable. It was a strange feeling, like I knew something somewhere.

    I wanted to understand the identity of that sense of discomfort.

    That’s why I decided to look into the abyss.

    His ideals, thoughts, beliefs, everything he has lived so far.

    so that.

    Sigh.

    I put my hand on the top of Dirus’s head who lost consciousness-

    widely!!

    “Don’t bully black people!!”

    […] … … ?]

    For some reason, Dirus slapped the castle lord’s hand away and stood up. At the same time, this message appeared in Dirus’ eyes.

    Tiring.

    ◎︎ The receiving body resonates.

    ◎︎ Sensations are temporarily shared.

    ◎︎ Reception is temporarily strengthened.

    It was a strange thing.

    It was something that transcended space.

    The current Dirus was not Dirus.

    That’s why Seongju’s eyebrows twitched.

    I couldn’t understand.

    There is no way Dirus has already woken up. Because my spirit must have been forcibly pulled down.

    Even if you can’t do it, it’s normal to faint for half a day… .

    No, that was probably good.

    A familiar feeling.

    A being that has been avoided until now.

    I realized it at once.

    [Are you Ronica?]

    “… … Do you know me?”

    Ronica.

    She appeared.

    I knew it was closely related to Dirus, but… How much communication must there be to move each other’s bodies from such a distance?

    Seongju was unknown.

    Just a forgotten feeling. It felt like something I didn’t know had knocked on my chest.

    […] Go back. I don’t mean any harm. I just wanted to check a few things.]

    “I don’t like it!! If that were the case, there is no way the nigger would have resisted like that!!! I absolutely cannot tolerate this!!”

    [I don’t know why I have to make excuses for this to you. Go back when you have good words. Otherwise, I will take care of you too… … .]

    Seongju paused for a moment.

    Even though there are no emotions, there is reason.

    That’s why I avoided this child. Because I don’t know how to deal with it.

    How would you have treated me if it had been you?

    This child who looks like he might collapse even if he just stretches out his hand.

    This daughter, whom Rauf cherishes.

    I don’t know.

    I didn’t want to talk anymore because I didn’t know.

    So.

    Kuguk!!

    It was hit hard.

    This is not the strength that a girl can endure. If she continues like this, she will not be able to endure it and will back down.

    however.

    “… … … It’s strange.”

    Faaah!!-

    The scale bounced.

    […] … … .]

    Dirus’s sword, which was wrapped around Ronica, moved reflexively and struck her away.

    I must have fainted… .

    How was this possible?

    You instinctively protect others, not yourself.

    That’s why my eyes twitched for the second time.

    Even if you don’t have any emotions, you can feel discomfort and frustration. Therefore, feelings similar to irritation arose in this situation where things were not going as planned.

    So, if you try to reach out again.

    “… Why are you doing this?”

    I paused again. I made eye contact with my daughter who was possessed by Dirus.

    anger.

    Desperation.

    patience.

    confusion.

    The eyes are a mixture of various emotions.

    You can see feelings that you cannot have.

    Frustration comes over me. If it were him, would he have threatened his daughter like this?

    It takes some time.

    We continued to make eye contact.

    *

    I want to protect black people… .

    When I thought,

    “Don’t bully black people!!”

    When I realized it, I was in the body of a black man.

    Even though I couldn’t understand how it came into the body of a black man, I wanted to protect it.

    Because it has been preserved until now.

    It was natural to want to protect it.

    So I yelled at Seongju to stop.

    However, Seongju only twitched his eyebrows and looked at him with an emotionless expression as if he was being oppressed. Just by looking at him, he felt an unknown sense of intimidation that made him want to run away, and he naturally became intimidated.

    The feeling of encountering something huge, not human.

    scary.

    It’s scary.

    It’s scary, but… .

    ‘This is the path that black people have always endured. Alone without anyone knowing… .’

    I don’t want to back down.

    Because I want to stand on the same path as the nigger!

    I couldn’t back down either. I looked stiffly into the eyes of Seongju.

    ice.

    Emotionless.

    heaviness.

    I can see eyes that are completely unreadable.

    I flinch.

    As we made eye contact like that, I felt an unknown feeling. I felt like I had a flash of memory of hugging and talking in a very friendly way once.

    “… … … It’s strange.”

    Faaah!!-

    For a moment, I felt strange, not scared, from the castle lord’s status.

    This memory… .

    What on earth?

    Why were you crying?

    Why am I being held… … .

    The visible castle is pure gray.

    No, gray. It feels like he is not human, and is indifferent to everything.

    But why did it look pink for a moment?

    Is Seongju really a bad person?

    I looked at Seongju who was stretching out his hand.

    She pauses.

    I’m curious.

    The reason she changed.

    “… Why are you doing this?”

    Seongju put down his hand without replying.

    We just made eye contact with an unchanging expression.

    When I look at it, I feel strange.

    Something that was heartbreaking.

    Something I forgot.

    Something vague.

    The happy moments that pass by on film touch my heart. It felt like the hot blood in the left atrium was heating up my whole body.

    At that moment.

    […] Stop it.]

    Seongju turned around.

    Clap la la rock!!~

    The world is twisted.

    When a person named Labieta, who was guarding the castle lord’s side, lifted the book, the world behind it was sucked in and returned to the original library.

    And then Seongju moved without saying a word.

    Like I don’t want to be here.

    but.

    “Please wait… .”

    Stand tall.

    The woman stopped at my words.

    I didn’t want to let it go like this.

    because… .

    ‘If you’re having a hard time, ignore everything and ask for help from me outside. She is also me. Even if it seems heartless, they won’t turn you away if you ask for help first.’

    A fleeting memory that struck my heart just moments ago.

    Because a clear voice came to mind.

    The only thing left to say is now.

    I wanted to reach the truth of the emotions I felt when I first made eye contact.

    So I said it without thinking.

    According to the warm advice in my memory.

    “… Please help me.”

    Called.

    […] … … .]

    No answer came back.

    The woman didn’t even turn around.

    I just stood still for about 4 seconds and then continued walking the same way I had been going.

    Leaving behind such a cold face.

    Seongju disappeared before my eyes.
