Chapter Index

    Yura.

    The moment I heard that name. Lucia’s time froze.

    ‘Yura? Yura?’

    She was uncharacteristically slow to react right away, but it only lasted a moment.

    The dazed, golden gaze went straight to the woman who was crying and holding onto her sleeves.

    Common brown hair. A smooth face without a single freckle. Her purple eyes dripping with tears were nothing short of special, but other than that, she was a country girl who could be found anywhere on the continent.

    Of course, she was quite pretty and seemed to attract the country kids playing at her house, but she was still a country bitch. He is no match for Lucia, who has been maintained by a noble family using high-quality lotions and skin care magic…

    ‘No, not this.’

    Lucia shook her head and shook off distracting thoughts.

    Is it because I have been living as an outcast for a year, or is it because I am blinded by jealousy? It was difficult to hold my mind.

    “Ju, I heard you died, but it’s really Yura.”

    Meanwhile, Seira was right in front of Lucia while she was unconscious. And she shed hot tears, just like Yura.

    “Where on earth have you been? Weren’t you dead?”

    “Se, Sayra…”

    “I really thought you were dead… Oh, what a regret…”

    Seira never forgot what he said. There were many things she wanted to ask and discuss, but her body simply wouldn’t allow her.

    In the end, Seira covered her mouth and sobbed.

    I wanted to cry like a child at the flood of emotions, but I couldn’t because the emotions I was feeling, including the joy of reunion, resentment, and regret, were so complex.

    “What, what! Where on earth have you shown up now? huh? And why are you showing up with the kid?”

    Tears covered my face as if my emotions were bursting out. Nevertheless, Seira found the poetry reflected in her blurry vision.

    “Kid, what on earth did you do? Why did you say you were going to catch a demon, and why did Yura show up with you? Now that I think about it, the little angel, where is the little angel going and what is that thing he’s wearing by his side?”

    “Let’s stop crying first.”

    [okay. Calm down, buddy. In times like these, keep your composure…]

    “Do you really look like you?!”

    Seira lashed out at her alter ego who suddenly intervened. Siron stopped his hand that was about to take out the handkerchief, thinking that this was being done to me.

    ‘What the fuck is this?’

    And as if to express his frustrated feelings, he let out a deep sigh.

    Before leaving the all-grey space. Yura was excitedly looking forward to seeing colleagues she hadn’t seen in a long time. It wasn’t just Yura who had expectations, but Shiron as well.

    A reunion of colleagues who met after 500 years. To be honest, I expected it to be a touching scene that would make viewers unable to help but shed tears.

    “The kid who went to catch the demon god waited anxiously wondering when he would come. My friend, whom I thought was dead a long time ago, shamelessly sat with his face shining! Also, are you calling my name? Is it true that curses don’t work?”

    “Yura? Yura?”

    But what does this mean?

    Seira was still crying and complaining, and Lucia was in a dazed state, as if she still didn’t understand the situation.

    Shit.

    Let alone a touching reunion, there was no such mess. But even so, Siron knew what to do in this situation.

    ‘Still, I have to organize it.’

    Shiron made his decision and hugged Seira, who was covered in tears. Seira was startled by the sudden embrace and struggled to escape the embrace, but the more she did, the more strength Shiron gave her in her arms.

    “Well, what are you doing! Don’t you let go of this?”

    “I won’t let you go until you calm down.”

    “Hey, is he?!”

    It was perplexing to Seira that no matter how hard she struggled, it wouldn’t go away. Seira quickly turned her head.

    To be more precise, Lucia, who started to shed tears later, and Yura, whose face was more tear-filled than anyone else’s.

    “Shi, fuck. 차현준 개새끼야! Are you abandoning me, your girlfriend?”

    “Yu, Yura is right!”

    Yura, who was covered in tears, tried desperately to separate Siron and Seira, and only then did Lucia look moved.

    A total mess.

    ‘Cha Hyun… What is Cha Hyun Jun? Lucia, why is that bastard reacting so slowly?’

    A bewildered face. Eyes lost in embarrassment. Out of anger and betrayal, I wanted to destroy everything, but I couldn’t because Siron was tying me up like a chain.

    “Put this away…”

    “Are you calm?”

    “Seira tells me to let go! Why are you still hugging me?”

    “I’ve calmed down, so let it go.”

    Only then did Siron release the arms that were restraining Seira. Is it because I can’t breathe? Or is it just because of shame? Seira’s face was as red as an apple, and she twisted her whole body as if the area where her arm had touched felt tingling.

    [A dastardly girl. Did you just take out the good stuff in this mess?]

    ‘shut up.’

    Seira cleared her throat, trying to ignore the words of the evil spirit in her head. Only then did the tears that covered my face disappear and my high heart calmed down.

    “Yura.”

    “Uh, huh?”

    Yura’s shoulders trembled when her name was suddenly called. Her eyes widened as her lover was taken away from her right in front of her, but when she met him directly and some time passed, she gradually came to her senses.

    “Can I hug you once?”

    “…Yes.”

    Seira smiled tearfully and hugged Yura. There were many things I wanted to ask and many things I wanted to discuss. However, in this situation, such trivial things were not important.

    Yura, a friend who I thought died 500 years ago was right in front of me. How can we turn our eyes to trivial facts like this?

    And since Yura’s death was caused by a really trivial argument, Seira was even more determined not to repeat the same mistakes as the past.

    “I’m sorry for leaving first then.”

    “What are you talking about?”

    “…You don’t remember? I ran away to the rear on my own. So you…”

    “I said something… It wasn’t your fault, so stop crying.”

    Yura patted Seira’s back. Only then did the memories overlap. But this is not with Seira.

    Kylie.

    Kylie, who is one head younger, was often patted like this. Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever had such gentle skinship with Seira.

    “If you think about it, it was my fault too. I should have explained more to you guys. Because I recklessly pushed forward alone…”

    “No. Hehehe. You did your best. I know from watching from the side that you worked harder than anyone else.”

    “…Thank you.”

    Yura chuckled and stroked Seira’s head.

    I wish I had opened it up like this a long time ago. Why couldn’t I do that back then? Belated regrets came flooding back.

    “…”

    Meanwhile, there was someone watching the two from a step away.

    ‘What do we do?’

    Lucia Prien. She still wasn’t sure how to act in this touching scene.

    ‘Should I jump in on Yura too?’

    Although Lucia was full of the desire to do so, she could not bring herself to do so, because her past crime of outright rejecting Yura’s hug had happened just a few minutes ago.

    A touching reunion that I had always dreamed of.

    She wondered if she had some regrets about a subject she didn’t recognize at first glance, but she couldn’t help it.

    It’s partly because my mind went blank because I was called Kylie in front of Siron, but

    The last time Yura was seen was 500 years ago.

    Even though her memory was flawless from immediately after death to reincarnation. Lucia is twenty-three.

    It’s already been 23 years since I was reincarnated.

    …nine years old. Until then, I could vividly recall Yura’s face.

    Even fifteen years old. When I followed Siron to David, I could vividly recall Yura’s face even from the moment I met Latera.

    But after that, it’s a mystery.

    The more she lived her reincarnated life, the more Kylie’s life changed into Lucia’s.

    The happy life I had been searching for so long.

    It’s not that there were no happy events at all, but there were so many unhappy events that Lucia gradually forgot the memories of her past life.

    What can I do? Yura is already dead. Lucia Prien’s life was full of happiness.

    Siron colored the black canvas, which was full of sadness and sorrow, with happy white colors.

    The day we first went on a picnic together.

    The day we held hands and faced Eldrina together.

    The day we joined forces to kill the witch.

    The day we slayed a demon beast together at the subjugation festival.

    …and also playing in the water at the beach. They coveted each other’s bodies and even played with fire.

    When I looked at Latera, whose face looked exactly like Yura’s, Yura’s face vaguely came to mind, but my mind was filled with the overwhelming pleasure of being hit by Shiron. Yura’s memories had no choice but to go below the surface.

    ‘Ah-oh! You idiot! Seriously, why am I so stupid?!’

    Lucia was blaming herself and pounding her head, but there were ample extenuating circumstances.

    No, you can forget about keeping your appearance in order.

    Right now, the kids I recognized each other from the academy entrance ceremony… I can’t even remember their names.

    The old man I met on my first picnic? Who on earth is that?

    Lucia was a genius in swordsmanship, but to be honest, her brains were average for the empire.

    Not the academy average. From a country bumpkin to the greatest brain in the empire, Seira Rohmer. somewhere in between.

    ‘By the way… I think I forgot something.’

    Lucia, who was pounding her head, suddenly became aware of the dust falling down.

    ‘Something very important…’

    “Kylie!”

    “Huh?”

    Lucia looked up from the dust on her hands. Yura and Seira were waiting with open arms.

    “What are you doing? Come here quickly.”

    “…uh.”

    “Why are you looking at me?”

    Siron motioned to Lucia, who was watching, as if giving permission.

    ‘Did you already know about Siron…?’

    Lucia took a deep breath and trudged over to the two.

    “Yura.”

    “Yes. Kylie.”

    Come on. Lucia’s eyes were filled with tears.

    “I missed you.”

    “Fuha. what? You pretended not to notice earlier.”

    “I… didn’t mean to forget…”

    “It’s a joke!”

    Yura patted the back of Lucia, who was crying.

    The process of getting here wasn’t smooth, but whatever the method, the goal was achieved and that was it.

    “I missed you too, Kylie.”

    “Me too. Oppa.”
