Episode 113
The Committee and the Immortality Experiment.
And the Tulcan Empire and the war to unify the continent.
It was not the crown prince who started all this, but two lords who were stranded on an island called Arendal in the Black Sea.
The crown prince who threw the mindless cells into the Tulcan Empire so that the immortality experiment could begin, and used the cells to divide the entire continent.
And then there’s the committee of incompetent bastards who dance to it.
It’s clear that they’re all the ones that need to be sorted out, but if we were to prioritize, the two Lords who are the root of all this naturally take first place.
If possible, I was just going to keep it alive and use it, but it didn’t work out.
Just. Now that we’re on the subject, let’s organize it.
There it is.
“Those two guys seemed out of their minds.”
[spirit?]
“I can definitely feel the Master’s energy, but it’s really annoying that I can’t see his face at all.”
I’m not joking, I’m serious.
“I was thinking of keeping him alive for at least a few more years, but that won’t work.”
[… … .]
-… … .
Cell remained silent with a puzzled expression, and the Master remained silent, knowing the weight of my words.
The teacher asked.
[Are you serious?]
“What is it?”
[If we go to the two lords now, things could get worse.]
He smiled faintly.
“If they find out that Master’s body is not normal, who knows what they might do… … Is that what you’re trying to say?”
The teacher nodded as if it was nothing new to me since I could tell without him saying much.
“It doesn’t matter. I have something to test.”
[……test?]
I took a quick look around.
rooftop.
There was no one around except for Cell and the Master, and across the terrace, Charlotte and Thanos could be seen fighting with swords, perhaps as a post-prandial exercise.
I turned my head again and looked at my teacher.
“How much more do you think it is, Master?”
The teacher’s expression hardened at my unexpected words.
No words came out of the teacher’s mouth.
“How Thanos will grow up, what kind of child Charlotte will grow up to be, and how Cell will grow up. Things like that… … Don’t you want to watch a little more?”
[… … .]
“13 years, isn’t that too short? It’s my greed, but I wish Master could live a little longer.”
The teacher quietly turned his head.
I was telling the Master, who had lived for 400 years, to live longer.
This is clearly my greed.
I have no intention of denying it.

But now, the Master has not given a clear answer.
This is something that even the teacher is concerned about.
It was like that in my past life too.
The Master worried about me living alone after he died, and he even said that it would have been better if he had met me a little earlier, and the very last thing.
When my life was over and I was breathing my last, I regretted not having lived a little longer.
At that time, I didn’t know how to handle the marriage period, and I didn’t know how to extend the Master’s life.
but.
Not anymore.
Destiny?
There is no such thing.
What I create is destiny, and what I create is the future.
He silently placed the cell on the terrace railing and sat the Master down next to it.
[… … What are you trying to do?]
-boss?
First of all, there was no answer.
From now on, I have to be really serious.
First, I took off the shoes I was wearing.
He took off the coat he was wearing and the white linen shirt he was wearing underneath.
[ah…….]
-ah…….
Cell and Master let out a small groan at the same time.
My body.
There were traces of fat all over my still young body.
Really, there are countless of them.
Armpit area, pubic area.
The abdominal area. The part that goes down towards the groin.

Hips, shoulders, etc.
This is a trace of having used the marriage certificate.
The reason I don’t really care is because once I become a Master, my body will reconstruct itself and all my scars will disappear.
But it seems that it wasn’t the cell and the master who were watching.
-Boss… … body… … .
At first I didn’t care.
I stood there and took a deep breath.
When I came out of the academy, I spoke lightly.
There’s something I have to try.
I wonder what principle makes the Master return to his original form once a month.
My teacher never once told me about that.
Advertisements
So I thought to myself and figured it out.
The principle I figured out is simple.
Narrowing one’s own vessel by limiting the power one can use in terms of time.
Should we call it a kind of equivalent exchange?
In a ‘certain space’ where time does not flow, the Master may have entrusted his body to a doll and implanted his soul into it like an avatar.
A type of astral projection.
Certainly, according to theory, it is not impossible to live for 400 years.
Even though the result of being a teacher is right before my eyes, I cannot be certain of it.
Well, that’s a separate issue.
I’m a practical type of person.
If you’ve never actually tried it, you can only get a feel for it, so what can you do with something like that?
So I’m going to give it a try this time.
The opposite is also true.
[What on earth are you trying to do?]
There was no answer.
As mentioned in the Academy.
I think Master will get angry if I tell him what I’m going to do.
I took another deep breath, and it stirred my soul.
Kookung-!
My heart sinks and something else, something alien, catches my attention.
The soul gate that was awakened in a previous life and opened countless times.
The energy of the soul that was continuously used whenever there was an opportunity even in this life.
A huge, black door, visible only to my eyes, slowly opens with a creaking sound.
A black aura seeping out from within.
It is the stain of countless beings that I have accumulated, killed, torn apart, and destroyed in my past life.
My power stands above their deaths, and the spirit I created reigns over them.
Squeak-!
The door, which would normally have been slightly open, began to open wide, just like the moment when Balactus was turned to dust.
I slowly reached out my hand.
will.
Idea.
The uses of the marriage certificate are endless.
It is also possible for a dragon that has no face to see the future and write a book of prophecies.
With this power, it is also possible to completely erase someone from the world.
It is also possible to create something out of thin air.
As in the case of the Master, it is possible to narrow one’s own scope by twisting the law of causality.
Advertisements
It is also possible to broaden the vessel by twisting causality, as I am trying to do now.
“Phew… … .”
I took another deep breath.
If this works, if it really works, the Master’s lifespan can be extended.
That’s clear.
Images of myself from my past life were appearing in my head.
It was my real body that I knew, and the body that I would acquire naturally over time.
I imagined and thought.
The arms were longer than they are now.
Her legs were long, her hair was long, and she even had a small scar carved deep into her face and jaw.
Focused, leveraged, operated, and enforced.
Boom!
The bones are interlocked.
Thump thump-!
My heart is pounding.
Ss …
The blood inside the body circulates throughout the body at an absurd speed.
The energy contained in the blood vessels was amplified and forcibly expanded.
Some time passed.
I opened my eyes slowly.
Her eye level was higher than usual, and her long hair that reached down to the floor felt out of place.
He slowly raised his hand.
Hardened calluses.
And the countless scars carved into his naked upper body, including his arms and muscles that were so strong they were like steel.
I slowly turned my head.
Cell was looking at me with his eyes wide open as if he couldn’t get any bigger, and Charlotte and Thanos, who were visible below the railing, stopped their duel and looked up at me.
With my mouth wide open.
And crucially, our teacher.
[This idiot!!!!!!!]
For the first time in my life, he was angry at me.
34 years old.
In my previous life, before I died, my body, which could be called my prime, faintly smiles according to my will.
* * *
Cell thought.
What kind of person is Jack, anyway?
No, I wonder if this is even a person.
Advertisements
He is infinitely warm to his own people, but infinitely cold to others. He has no qualms about ending the life of a living being, and he is even strong.
When he first met Jack, the way he appeared to him at that time was something that Cell couldn’t understand with common sense.
He swung his sword, and the chain of dragon bones snapped like tree branches.
The man named Master Heynckes Beckermann was no match for Jack.
No, I wonder if it would be more appropriate to say that they were no match for each other.
I was just playing around with it.
Because I didn’t understand it, I just defined it as ‘strong.’
But what is this sight before my eyes?
The uneasy feeling he had felt at that time seeped into Jack’s body, and his arms slowly lengthened.
His legs grew longer, his body grew as if it had leapt through time, his muscles were built, and paradoxically, scars were carved into him as if he had gone back in time.
Heaven and earth.
When an intelligent being sees something that cannot be explained, he becomes afraid.
That’s the natural order of things, but Cell was a little different.
Because it was Jack who did something inexplicable.
So I was just surprised and amazed.
I didn’t understand what kind of magic Jack was using, but I could only admire it.
Because he was too handsome.
* * *
The same goes for Charlotte and Thanos, who were lightly sparring after their meal.
I felt a huge sense of discomfort that I had never felt before, and I turned my gaze in the direction where it was felt.
There, Jack’s body was changing.
Should I say that it is forced growth?
At 14, Jack looked a little more mature than other kids, but he was still a child.
But, the Jack I saw now looked different.
Should I say it is the appearance of a young man?
Charlotte blushed at the sight of Jack, who looked to be in his mid-twenties, and Thanos felt doubt and then awe at the irony of seeing Jack in reality, something he had seen in the illusionary magic circle.
I felt something not much different from what Cell felt.
They hear it in their ears.
[This idiot!!!]
A Valentine’s Day I’ve never heard of.
Her voice was mixed with frustration.
* * *
Others don’t know.
Because I haven’t tried it or experienced it.
But it wasn’t Valentine’s Day.
Because the body’s vessel was forcibly narrowed based on the marriage period, the flow of time was slightly deflected.
Advertisements
I could tell because it was that kind of Valentine’s Day.
What Jack did just now.
[This… … stupid… … why… … . Why is it like that… … .]
It was right to be sad, and it was also right to be angry.
No one can escape the great flow of time.
That is an undeniable truth.
Valentine doesn’t deny it either.
so.
I bought time.
To be precise, he deflected time by sealing the power and vessel he had at his prime, his body and strength, for 29 days out of 30 and only allowing him to use it for one day.
That is why he was able to survive for 400 years.
Because I missed the time.
It was completely different from Jack’s case now.
Jack, on the other hand, accelerated the flow of time.
Is it possible that it was simply the spirit of the soul?
Those who didn’t know would have nodded and said, “Oh, I see…”, but not to someone who knew, like Valentine.
Jack has now shortened his own life.
He forcibly broke the law of causality, completely reversed the flow of time instead of moving it backwards, and forcibly reconstructed his body.
You could call it a kind of avatar.
It will be temporary, just as Valentine narrowed the bowl and turned himself into a doll.
No, it has to be temporary.
Otherwise, every moment you maintain that appearance, your soul will be hit and your lifespan will be shortened even further.
So, I couldn’t help but get angry.
[Why… … Why do you do that… … .]
Jack said to such a Valentine.
“Because it has to be now.”
[what?]
“I needed to get the feel of it at least once.”
Valentine’s mouth was shut.
“Only then can we extend the life of the Master.”
Jack in the form of a young man.
He reached out as usual and placed Valentine on his left shoulder.
“Theory alone is not enough. I am more practical.”
[But as long as you remain in that form, your lifespan will decrease. Power that costs lifespan is equally dangerous… … .]
“however.”
Jack, who had forcibly interrupted Valentine’s words, slowly turned his head.
“I have a feeling that extending the Master’s lifespan might be possible. I have a feeling.”
Jack’s smiling face was shining.
It was so bright that Valentine closed his eyes.

Perhaps, if my current body wasn’t a doll, I might have shed tears.
You idiot, you bastard.
