The steps are heavy.
It is a body that should be lighter because the state has risen.
Even so, the running feet were too heavy.
This is probably because the emotions attached to my images are so heavy that even my steps feel heavy.
ran
In my mind, I want to smash everything and break through.
No matter how crazy I was, that was too much.
So I just ran.
I was a little concerned about Mo Yong-hee, who I had left behind, but I couldn’t help it.
People around me stare at me in amazement.
Is my expression that strange?
I don’t know.
I couldn’t think of anything right now.
A place where people gather.
It was a place prepared to treat others, and today, as well, the members of Shinryonggwan were on the move without a break.
step past them
After walking a little further, the person I was looking for caught my eye.
“Haa…”
I calmed down my exhausted breathing and looked at the person lying down.
It’s not even lying in bed. Those fine things were already being used by the wounded.
She didn’t have any major problems with her body, and she just lay down on an unknown cloth.
Approach carefully.
Just as she is about to take a step, she starts to stand up.
As if tired, she slowly stood up and ran a hand through her hair.
It’s gorgeous.
A messy space and loud noises around.
The mere existence of her is bound to change meaninglessly.
Should I say that it shines?
She had that power.
It was like that in a previous life too.
It was so bright that nothing like me dared to get close to it.
Would it be different now?
It won’t be any different now.
It just changed so that I didn’t care about that.
If you ask me if that’s a good thing.
I don’t know yet.
“Haa…”
I didn’t even run that much, so I don’t know why I was so out of breath.
Even though I’ve become a body that won’t get tired no matter how many days I run.
Breathing was strangely rapid.
bruise.
take one more step
Even in the muffled noise, she must have heard my footsteps, so her eyes are directed in this direction.
Make eye contact.
Facing the big eyes, the thoughts I’ve been trying to think of become blurry.
“…”
“…”
They didn’t say anything to each other and just looked at each other.
What should I say?
Even as I move my steps, I think about it thousands of times. I wondered what would be the most natural thing to say, and I rolled and rolled words that were easy to say.
But there are no words spoken.
Even if you come all the way here stupidly, you will hesitate.
“…Did you jump in?”
In the end, I couldn’t speak first, so she spoke to me first.
“No, not like that. I just came to see if it happened during training.”
I was proud of myself.
crazy guy
What kind of pride do you need to come this far? This damn personality will make me suffer until the day I die.
Fortunately, she heard me and laughed.
It was an excuse that didn’t sound like words, because anyone could see it.
If you’re going to get caught anyway, you should just be honest.
I couldn’t understand why I couldn’t do that myself.
“How do you feel.”
He calmed his beating heart and approached.
“are you okay.”
Hearing the answer, he knelt down halfway.
“…If you have, tell me quickly, because the lawmakers are busy and have to tell you in advance.”
“It’s really fine.”

“Then I’m glad.”
Hearing my words, she looks at me and asks.
“Is Gongja Gu all right?”
“I’m fine…” I
was about to answer, but my thoughts focused on the title she called me.
Not the old Confucius, but the old Confucius.
It was only a one letter difference, but I felt the width of the difference was too thick.
Did you see my eyes flicker?
The woman laughed bitterly as if in response.
“… Shall we go out?”
words spoken naturally. It must be the same voice.
Is it an illusion that there is no height and it feels a little more mature?
“Where?”
“A place where we can talk.”
Spitting out the words, the woman stands up.
It could have been a surprise, but since she seemed to want him, he followed without a word.
I got out and entered a quiet forest.
A day has passed since the raid, and the dark curtain disappears, and the clear sky comes into view.
“the weather is good.”
“huh.”
“It seems like it’s been a while since I’ve seen the sky.”
“okay?”
“yes. There was no time to watch and appreciate things like that.”
The woman who was watching the sky carefully turned her gaze to me.
“Me and you… didn’t have time for that?”
“…”
That’s right.
I didn’t have time to look at the sky and appreciate what it was like.
Where would I have had the time to walk through Hell and appreciate such things?
That’s why I couldn’t understand the demonic swordsman who was staring at the moon in a daze.
Now…
I could vaguely understand. What was the demon swordsman looking at on the moon at that time?
Could it be because of the lowered emotions?
Only then does her face come into view a little more.
Eyebrows slightly lower than usual.
Wherever the face, which always seemed like a smiling merchant, goes, a calm atmosphere lingers.
It was a more familiar and sad look than Wi Seol-ah, whom I had come to know in this life.
Feeling it, I asked.
“Since when…”
“Wait a minute.”
As soon as I was about to ask what I wanted to ask.
The woman cuts me off and blocks me.
I wondered what he was going to do and looked at me curiously.
“I have something to say first…”
“What is it?”
I wanted to say something.
To swear that I couldn’t, but?
If so, you can accept it.
It’s like lust…. As long as you don’t pull out a knife, that’s fine.
The moment I thought so.
“I’m sorry…”
She handed me an apology.
“what?”
“I’m so sorry…”
It was unexpected.
The very fact that she apologized to me meant that.
“Suddenly, what kind of apology?”
“…I’m sorry…”
“Why is that?”
Looking at you with trembling eyes as if you were about to cry.
I don’t know what to do.
Why are you trying to cry all of a sudden?
“No, why are you doing that…”
“I found out too late what Gongja Gu had done for me.”
“…!”
“…sorry. Even now… I’m really sorry.”
My heart thumps and sinks.
It felt like a long dagger flew into my heavily pressed chest.
‘how?’
At her words, thoughts run wild.
How did know.
What are you not doing?
How far do you know?
“…What are you talking about. Don’t cry, just calm down.”
Are you talking about what happened in the ‘Magyeong’?
No, that’s something no one remembers except me.
In addition, I was hoping that no one would remember.
If not, is it during the war?
Whatever it was, I didn’t want her to know anything.
“What do you mean? I… I don’t know.”
“…I’m sorry for bothering you.”
“Are you going to stop apologizing?”
“…”
At my words, she looks at me sadly.
What is the meaning of that gaze?
My head is pounding.
How much do you really know?
‘Could he even know that?’
It won’t be.
It shouldn’t have been.
she shouldn’t know
That I became a Mine for her.
I hoped she wouldn’t know.
“Stop apologizing… I don’t want to hear that from you.”
“…”
It’s not something I wanted to hear.
I thought it was something someone should have done.
I thought I was just unlucky.
Why the f*ck did I have to do that?
I think it was fine in the end.
Do you think the person in front of you would have been a little more comfortable?
That was enough.
“…it’s in the past.”
“…”
The woman who heard me startled.
It’s all past.
It’s something that never happened.
It won’t happen.
“It’s something we have to do away with now.”
“…”
The more she spoke, the more saddened her expression became.
Why?
Why are you making such a face?
I couldn’t tell.
I don’t know what she knows, but I hope that doesn’t happen either.
This was my life for that.
“The old Gongja…”
“Huh?” “Are you happy right now?”
“…suddenly?”
“yes.”
I couldn’t understand the woman’s intention.
Are you suddenly happy?
‘It’s happiness.’
I asked myself, but it was difficult to come up with an answer.
“I don’t feel very happy yet.”
To be honest, I don’t even know what it means to be happy.
Because there was no time to think about it peacefully, neither in the previous life nor in the present life.
It is a world where nothing is over.
For me to think about that.
After all the accumulated work is solved.
When it’s time to empty your stuffy stomach and look around slowly.
Maybe it’s a worry that I can stand at that time.
“you? how about you.”
“Me?”
The woman who heard my question smiled.
“I’m happy… at least I am now.”
The smiling face makes my stomach thump when I hold it tight! It was a pretty face that made me shake.
I thought that smile was a bit forced.
Looking at that smile
“I have a question for you.”
Now, I wanted to get to the point.
Because there are so many things I want to hear.
She corrects her expression as if she knew what I meant.
I saw it and asked.
“…Since when?”
The meaning of this question was literal.
since when
She’s not the wimp she is now.
Around the time when I became the Divine Sword of my previous life.
At least not from the moment we first met.
The girl who handed me the potatoes back then was obviously ignorant.
“Since when were you? I want to know that.” Upon hearing the question
“…”
Wi Seol-ah quietly closed her eyes for a moment.
It is a way to organize your thoughts.
A few seconds pass, and Wi Seol-ah opens her eyes again.
and told me
“It must have been a few days since the former Gongja came here.”
“…few days?”
just a few days?
There’s not much of a difference from birth. Is that why?
I could understand the singularity Wi Seol-ah had shown so far.
I felt like I was putting the pieces together as the images of her, who often gave off an unknown atmosphere and made me dizzy, came to mind one by one.
‘How on earth?’
Does that mean that Wisul-ah is also a regressor like me?
‘Then, even in Sacheon…’
In Sacheon, he pierced the way through the remarks of Geum Natural Song.
All the abilities of the body that I couldn’t know when I saw it…
“It’s different.”
“…hmm?”
When I’m slowly organizing things in my head.
Wi Seol-ah reveals the meaning of denial.
Did you even read my mind?
“What do you mean different?”
“For me… the situation is different from the former Gongja.”
“what.”
As if he needed to correct his thoughts, Wiseolah continued to speak.
“Unlike going back in time and completely assimilating with my current body… I’m just parasitizing on this child right now.”
“A parasite?”
“The owner of the body still belongs to this child. I’m just borrowing my body.”
That’s what I mean.
The present life of Weiseol-ah is still there.
Does it mean that the soul of the new sword from the previous life is attached to me like the god Noya in my body?
“…That’s…”
What’s different.
If the soul went back to the past and was originally in my body.
Isn’t that also a return after all?
It’s different if you look closely, but I thought the big frame was the same.
‘for a moment.’
Then, suddenly, another thought comes to mind.
Wi Seol-ah felt like she knew what had happened.
I don’t know what method you used to do that.
It seems that he came here with his own strength.
that it is
“…is it you who brought me back?”
The reason why I was able to return to the past by regressing.
Was it the power of the new sword?
At my question, Wi Seol-ah opened her big eyes even wider as if she was surprised.
He quickly puts on a pathetic expression.
“No… I couldn’t.”
‘I guess that’s not the case.’
I was wondering if you could find out the secret of my regression. It seems that it was not a hypocrisy.
Should I be happy with this?
As I tried to think that way, Wi Seol-ah continued talking.
“In my heart…. I wanted to do that even if I poured my all into it… but I didn’t become a vessel to contain that much karma. Sending me here in this state was the limit.”
Clearly, Shin Gum is the best in the world at the time.
He was the only person who defeated the Heavenly Demon, who single-handedly killed the Three Lords, so that must be the case.
But if you say you couldn’t even do that divine sword.
‘Who the heck.’
The World Tree said it was not him.
As far as I can tell, the World Tree has a history of returning a thousand every day on its own.
I mean, that’s possible.
This means that in the end, only a being as strong as the world tree, called the master of the world, can bring back one human being.
‘therefore. Who the hell?’
still don’t know
I know that the world wants something from me right now.
I don’t know how, but I can see it just by looking at the progress.
It’s the same situation as before, but that’s what makes me more upset.
The only thing I can say is that I’m lucky.
It must have been that I saw the person in front of me at least once again.
I was about to skip this part to think about it later.
“Would you like to know…?”
I had to stop at the new sword’s words.
“…what?”
“Who is the entity that turned the old Confucius’ time back…. Do you want to know, Confucius?”
“You… do you know who turned my time around?”
“I know…”
Her eyes widen at her words.
Even though Wiseol-ah wanted to know how.
If you knew, I wanted you to tell me.
“If you want to know, I can tell you.”
“Of course then, let me know…”
“Instead…if you listen, you might regret it.”
The moment I was about to ask you to tell me right away.
I had to frown at the words Wi Seol-ah spat out as if warning.
You might regret it?
After checking my expression, Wi Seol-ah approaches me little by little and says.
“But… will you listen?”
“…”
I was hesitant about what he said.
Saying that you might regret hearing it.
What the hell is going on with my regression that makes me regret it?
On the other hand, that sounds a bit scary.
It didn’t take very long to overcome that and decide the answer.
“I still have to listen.”
It’s not once or twice that I’ve regretted it so far.
I was already tired of running away because I was afraid of it.
I had to keep moving forward.
“I thought the old Confucius would say that.”
Upon hearing my answer, Wi Seol-ah looks as if she knew I would.
“I will tell you.”
The time when I was waiting for Wi Seol-ah’s words.
Whii-i-i-i.
The wind blew from behind.
it’s a spring breeze
“The person who turned the old Gongja’s time was… not me.”
When the wind blew through her hair, she spoke as if she were carrying words in the wind.
The third spring we face after returning.
I finally on this day.
“Heavenly Demon.”
I came to know the existence that brought me back.
“It is her.”
