I’m Not a Regressor - Chapter 400

I am not a returner Episode 400

Interlude – Fate is like a torrent (3)



“...It’s all because of my sister.”

“So who would be so greedy?”

The two sisters, who were kicked out of the room by Ha-eun, glared at each other fiercely.

That too for a while.

A deep sense of self-destruction that I had not felt when I was excited came flooding back to me.

“Haa... I wonder what this is doing.”

“For some reason, I think the same thing.”

It was natural for me to feel a sense of self-destruction because an adult who was old enough was arguing like a 6-year-old fighting over a piece of cake.

‘It’s like this when I’m with my sister.’

Isabella bit her lip and looked back at Cassia.

Why?

If Cassia was involved in something that I would normally pass over as if it were nothing, my head would heat up and I couldn’t stand it.

It feels like I’ve gone back to the days when I was a child and played immaturely in the garden.

I was filled with shame at the thought that I had shown an unsightly side in front of Ojin.

‘I feel like I want to go back.’

There is no need to wait years or decades.

How great it would be if we could turn back time, even just for 2-3 hours.

“ha.”

Even if I regretted it later, I had already shown all kinds of indecent behavior in front of Ojin.

My shoulders slumped with a deep sigh.

Cassia smiled and approached Isabella.

“Why don’t we have a short truce while Ojin is home?”

“...Truce?”

Isabella’s shoulders, which had been sagging like boiled spinach, rose slightly.

She opened her mouth, glaring at Cassia with a disapproving look in her eyes.

“You started an argument one-sidedly on your side, and now you’re telling me not to fight?”

“When do you say I started a fight?”

“A while ago...!”

“Just as you hoped for time with Mr. Ojin, I just hoped for time with him.”

Isabella’s eyes narrowed.

“Didn’t you say before that you had no intention of becoming Oh Jin’s lover?”

“Hmm. “But I did.”

Cassia smiled faintly and stroked her hair.

“...Isn’t it true that, unlike you, I haven’t seen you once in the past three months?”

“....”

As she said, unlike Isabella and Haeun Vega, who often visited the training facility where Ojin was training, Cassia only focused on traveling around the world and chasing down the constellations of the Black Star.

Unfortunately, there was no particular result.

Still, her efforts could not be discounted.

“ha. okay. “Let’s not disturb each other while Oh Jin is at home.”

Isabella sighed and nodded.

Although she said she had no intention of becoming lovers, she was not oblivious to the extent of not knowing what feelings Cassia had for Ojin.

The thought itself of valuing Oh Jin is not at all different from your own.

‘That’s why Ha-eun also forgave Cassia.’

Was it when Ha-eun recognized him as her lover?

He once said that he would accept him because the more people around him who value him, the safer he will be.

And even if you search the entire Earth, you will not be able to find an ally as dedicated and skilled to Ojin as Cassia.

‘I have to endure it. ‘If it’s for Mr. Ojin.’

Although every time I saw Cassia and Ojin clinging to each other, heat rose in my head.

I needed to control my emotions just to prevent a misdiagnosis.

Just like Ha-eun did.

“Hehe, our Bella communicates well.”

“When did you never say no and call me greedy?”

“Isn’t there a difference between being greedy and being good at communicating?”

“That’s true, but...”

“And.”

Cassia smiled kindly and stroked Isabella’s head.

It wasn’t a very good picture because of the height difference.

“Even though Bella is greedy, you don’t particularly dislike her?”

Cassia’s touch on the head was clearly filled with warmth.

“...joy.”

Isabella snorted, but bent down slightly to allow Cassia to stroke her head.

Cassia, who was stroking her head, burst into laughter.

Even though they bicker with each other every day, they still cherish each other in their hearts.

The relationship between the two, hidden behind the name Colgrande, was not much different from that of any other sisters.

“Do you know how to cook?”

“Why are you cooking all of a sudden?”

“I’m going to go grocery shopping to prepare lunch.”

“Hmm. But didn’t you just eat breakfast?”

“I want to cook you a dish that is good for recovering from fatigue.”

What I’m thinking about is samgyetang.

It was a traditional Korean dish made by boiling whole chicken and healthy herbs in rich broth.

“Making samgyetang takes a long time, so you have to prepare it in advance.”

“...You’ve become a real housewife.”

“The worry is, who was worried?”

Riak growled viciously and frowned.

The corners of Ha-eun’s mouth quirked up.

“Even if you say it like that, the poop puppy was really worried about you?”

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

“You said your stigmata might have been damaged, so you had to bring it to the sanctuary, right?”

“That’s it!”

Riak stepped back with a puzzled expression.

Of course, contrary to his concerns, Vega had already confirmed that there was no damage to the stigmata while Ojin was unconscious.

“young. “If you’re worried, say you were worried.”

“Everyone shut up! “Isn’t this because you were a child who couldn’t even take care of his own body in the first place?”

Ohjin burst out laughing as he saw Riak shouting in an angry voice for no reason.

“Oh my god, are you awake already?”

“I went shopping with Bella~”

After chatting for a while, Isabella and Cassia returned with a large envelope in their hands.

“please wait for a moment. “I’ll make it for you right away.”

“I’m fine because I ate porridge earlier.”

“The porridge gets full quickly. “In times like these, you need to eat heartily.”

Isabella headed to the kitchen with an enthusiastic expression on her face.

“Is there anything I can help you with?”

Cassia shrugged as if she couldn’t stop her and followed Isabella to the kitchen.

Soon, there was a bustling sound and the smell of chicken broth being made.

‘Good.’

Is this the first time I’ve felt peace in some time?

Oh Jin leisurely leaned back on the sofa with a faint smile on his lips.

A warm feeling of happiness filled me with the feel of the soft leather.

I changed it.

The reason Isabella and Cassia got along so well.

Riak was able to overcome trauma and overcome the ‘wall’.

The fact that Vega came to embrace the feeling of love outside of the temple.

Ha-eun regained her eyes and legs and was able to smile happily.

It was because he had changed his fate.

‘I didn’t do it all on my own, though.’

It was a change that would never have occurred without him.

‘therefore.’

can do.

You can change it.

The ending of the story with a predetermined fate.

With your own hands, by your own strength, by your own will.

New.

To an ending where everyone here can smile happily like now.

‘Because I am a star in the sky.’

Although it is still not enough to deal with the Heavenly Demon.

Even now, aren’t you getting stronger every day?

If we continue to grow like this, we can change our future...

“Um... Oh, Oh Jin.”

Isabella, who was in the kitchen, approached me with a pale expression, holding a smartphone in one hand.

“what’s the matter?”

“T-TV. Turn on the TV quickly now!”

Hearing the urgent cry, I tilted my head and turned on the TV.

-We bring you urgent breaking news.

A city engulfed in flames can be seen behind the announcer with a stern expression.

-Currently, Rome has been attacked by a group of unknown demonic beasts.

As he looked at the city burning in flames, Ojin felt something ‘familiar’.

-Rome and all of Italy have suffered damage close to annihilation due to a horde of hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts that appeared without any warning...

Where did you see this before?

Ah yes.

The sight of Rome engulfed in flames as seen in Lee Shin-hyuk’s memories.

The appearance of the city at that time and the appearance of the city beyond the screen now were exactly the same.

-Experts estimate that this incident may have resulted in at least one million civilian casualties.

Contrary to Lee Shin-hyuk’s memories, the ‘Blood Witch’ did not exist.

Italy was destroyed.

Millions of people burning in flames and crushed by sharp teeth.

Like fate.

As fate would have it.

The ending has come to an end.

-What do you think about fate?

Suddenly.

Polaris’ words came to mind.

“...torrent.”

Although I didn’t understand it at the time.

Now I know what that means.

Destiny is like a torrent, no matter how hard you try to stop it, it flows fiercely in a certain direction.

And yet.

The fact that he could not change the flow of the great torrent called ‘fate’.
