episode_0038

Jeong Soo-yeon resolved to embrace her brother, who knew about her return.

So much of the future has changed.

By now, the newly created guild should have started to create a bad image of themselves by disparaging Hyeseong.

I couldn’t do that.

The world was still eager for the comet and was leaning on it.

In that case, there was no need to forcefully drag it into a certain future.

You can create a new future here.

Originally it would have been impossible, but now there were variables here too.

My older brother has powerful skills that are completely different from before.

My older brother is alive and does not die even though he knows he is a returner.

Her fighting sense was not bad, so she was confident that if she taught her brother just a little bit, she would grow up to the point where she could protect herself in any situation.

I don’t know the exact reason, but judging by the way my brother pretends not to know even though he knows about regression, if he continues to maintain this attitude in the future, even if he has a crush on me, my life will not be in danger.

Also, whenever my brother told me about the regression, I just had to use the regression skill to prevent it from happening.

That’s why I decided to embrace my brother.

Of course, I had personal desires, but I was confident that I could control them well because I could sometimes resolve them through regression.

We can write a new history here.

Even if you and your brother don’t become lovers, there is still a future where you can remain as a family.

I thought there would be plenty of time left in the future to tease my brother.

My brother’s expression was dark for a moment as he thought about something during the meal, but his expression soon brightened.

“Comet Guild Can you think about it a little more?”

“You reacted as if you were coming right away. What are you thinking?”

“No.. just. Well… I was thinking about creating a guild too.”

“That doesn’t seem too bad, let me know if you need anything, I’ll help you anytime.”

*

“That doesn’t seem too bad, let me know if you need anything, I’ll help you anytime.”

My heart ached.

Why did she forgive me?

Why are you forgiving me?

I was so disgusted with myself that I felt like I was going crazy, but I tried to act like I was okay.

I don’t know if I can wash away my sins.

It was a sin I didn’t commit here in the first place, but something that didn’t happen to me couldn’t happen to Suyeon.

If I don’t act like this, I have to say that I know I’m a regressor, so I try to act like I’m okay.

In a past that no longer exists.

Should I have told her there that I knew she was a regressor?

Is that why he gave me the name Jeon Cheon-woo?

If he really did such an ugly thing, why did I make him turn back time to the past?

Many complicated thoughts dominated my mind.

My mouth was trying to smile, but my eyes couldn’t smile.

It could have just been me talking to myself and cursing myself.

What if he knew that Suyeon would turn back time, so he indirectly led her to tell me this?

In that case, there was a high possibility that Sooyeon did not know that I still knew that she was a regressor.

Then it is right to continue to pretend not to know.

I was scared that if I revealed that I knew about it, her plans would be ruined.

If I said that I knew I was a regressor, it seemed like the sins I would commit in the future would become sins I would commit lightly, like ‘I can just make it up to nothing that never happened.’

return.

Someone says

Knowing the future is the greatest blessing.

However, just because you were hurt by someone and turned back time made it never happen.

The wounds remaining in the returnee’s heart did not disappear.

I once saw such a story in a novel.

A regressor hates in advance the person who will do something for something that has not yet happened.

They assume that a person who has not yet committed a crime will commit a crime, and kill that person in advance.

As if it was something that would inevitably happen,

Thinking that person won’t change.

Maybe that’s why Suyeon had been pushing me away from the first day T.O.P appeared.

“Now that I think about it, I have something to do. I’ll go first.”

After I finished eating, I couldn’t stop looking at Suyeon’s face.

I left the place as if running away, took a taxi, and went home.

As soon as I got home, I lay down on the bed.

Then I closed my eyes to cool my head.

I close my eyes for a moment and then open them.

“Oh.. I was going to kiss you, but you woke up?”

Seolhee’s sister was right in front of me.

“Is your sister here?”

Just as I was about to get up and say sorry for not being able to meet her, my older sister smiled and lifted the plastic bag in her hand.

“Would you like a drink?”

It was alcohol.

This was the first time since I gained magical power that I had felt this much resentment toward my body.

“I hope I get the reward for clearing the first floor quickly. There are 3 weeks left to receive magical power.”

I had already drank a few glasses of soju, but I didn’t even feel drunk, let alone drunk.

“Do you usually drink this much?”

“That’s right.. I think it’s because of magical power.”

“Really? Just a moment!”

My older sister soon entered the room and came out holding a silver bracelet in her hand that blocked magic power.

“How about kicking this and drinking it?”

My sister came out holding handcuffs with a bright expression.

I also smiled back at my sister’s smile and held out both hands.

“I am arresting you immediately on the spot as the culprit who stole my heart.”

Maybe it’s because she’s drunk, but Seolhee noona can talk embarrassingly without hesitation.

When my hands were handcuffed, I suddenly started getting drunk.

“Wow.. I’m dizzy..”

“So I told you to eat snacks too.”

Meanwhile, my sister gave me a piece of the raw flounder she had bought.

While eating raw flounder served by my sister, we talked about various things.

When I first joined the company.

How did my sister fall in love with me?

The night deepened as I chuckled at the story of how I regretted not confessing when the tower first occurred and the moment the world was destroyed.

We were both very drunk.

My sister and I were in the middle of the living room, leaning against each other and looking in different directions.

“Cheonhwi..”

“Yes?”

“Naaa.. I love you?”

“I do it…a lot.”

“I see..”

After a moment of silence,

“Then.. do you mind if I ask you about your ex-girlfriend?”

“E..?”

My sister’s words made me dizzy.

I bring out the memories of my ex-girlfriend that were buried somewhere in those memories.

“Yes..”

I soon remembered and gave my sister permission to do it.

“When did you first meet?..”

Ask a question right away.

“When I was in kindergarten.”

“Ah…”

“It was good because it was a time when I didn’t know anything..”

“…It’s been quite a while…”

Then, startled by the sound of my sister sobbing, I turned my back and looked at her.

Before I knew it, Seolhee was sobbing with her face covered.

“Sister..?”

When I hugged my sister to tell her to calm down, she cried and got angry in my arms.

“Did you like it? Was it good..!”

“I remember it was like that…”

“I.. I! You were the first…!”

“I’m sorry..”

For several minutes, I continued to listen to my older sister venting her anger for no reason.

“So…how many years have we been dating?”

“Is it two days?.. Then we parted ways since neither of us knew anything.”

“?”

“At that time, I didn’t know that having a girlfriend had such a deep meaning, so it was just a story about making friends. It’s true.”

“What are you talking about?”

My sister looks up at me with eyes full of tear stains.

“Isn’t this about your ex-girlfriend?”

“That’s right.”

“So, except for the one I dated in kindergarten without even knowing anything about it… um… nothing. That was the first girlfriend I ever had. We really dated as friends, but without knowing anything, we were lovers for two days.”

“?”

“?”

A moment of silence.

Seolhee, who soon adjusted her posture and faced the back again, corrected her question and asked it back.

“What about Sooyeon Jeong?”

“Why Suyeon?”

“Look, they call me by name in a friendly way. There was a rumor going around the company that the two of you went to a Japanese restaurant and ate together again today?”

“Yes?”

‘Ah, that driver…’

“There was a rumor that you two were lovers..”

“…Is it Suyeon and I?”

“Then.. isn’t it?”

“Ah..”

When I thought about it, Sooyeon lived her life hiding the fact that we were siblings.

Because of what I did, she probably didn’t want to acknowledge me as her brother.

“…”

As I remained silent, my sister naturally took a can of beer this time.

We drank like that again.

What was different from before was that this time we didn’t really talk to each other and just continued drinking.

The stars in the night sky were unusually invisible today.

“Sister.”

“Huh?”

“This is a secret, so you must never tell anyone.”

“..Listen and watch.”

“..I’m your younger brother.”

“Who?”

“Jeong Su-yeon. My older sister told me at a previous company that she had a pretty younger sister.”

“Eng.. The last names are different for that, right?”

“..Yes..”

My sister didn’t ask any more questions because she sensed something was wrong with my gloomy answer.

But I continued speaking.

“My mother passed away when I was young.”

I never told anyone,

“My father passed away before I became an adult.”

I started talking about my humble past, which I didn’t want to tell anyone.

“And my father remarried before he passed away.”

Is it because I was too drunk?

“At that time, the child brought in by my stepmother was Suyeon.”

Defeated by my desire to talk somehow, I continued the story.

“And then the stepmom ran away with my father’s death insurance money.. I’m so sorry..”

If it’s that long, it’s long, if it’s short, it’s short. The story has begun.

My stepmother ran away while I was in the military.

Two poor siblings left behind.

I didn’t want to make my younger brother as miserable as I was.

At my age, I was able to somehow get a job and even got a job at a small business to make money.

When the story ended, Seolhee, who was sitting with her back to me, was dozing off, probably because she was tired.

I continued talking to my sister, who was already asleep and couldn’t hear me.

“But.. I don’t think I can be like you anymore..”

“…”

“We made up again today. Sooyeon stayed away from me for a while… but now it seems like she has forgiven me.”

“…”

“But… But…”

I cried and spoke to Seolhee, who did not respond, perhaps because she was still dozing off.

“I.. I.. can’t forgive myself..”

“…”

Even when I saw myself lamenting that I couldn’t forgive myself, cutting everything out, I felt shabby.

After that, I just sat down and cried.

Then I fell asleep.

He fell asleep while being extremely drunk.

Soon he starts snoring.

“…Even if I was the guild leader… I would have forgiven you no matter what you did, you idiot..”

My sister pretended to be asleep, but she was crying with me behind my back.

That day, my sister closed her eyes while looking in the same direction as me while she was sleeping.
