I am not a returner Episode 427 Interlude
– Escape (4)
“How?”
Ohjin and Haeun Isabella’s eyes were focused on Cassia.
What solution is there when the entrance to the sanctuary is damaged and the escape route is completely blocked?
“Do you remember that you went to the Demon World through my ‘shadow’ before?”
“ah.”
As far as I remember.
While I was looking for traces of the ‘snake’ to find the missing Tamrangseong, I was swept away by a black shadow and went to the devil’s palace.
That was the first time Ojin had ever experienced a magical scene.
“So you’re saying you can open a crack leading to the Demonic Realm?”
Although it is not as good as the sanctuary, the Demon World is also a ‘different world’, so it will be much safer than being in this city.
“yes. By connecting the ‘shadow’ to the other world, you can create a crack that can be crossed. But... I need some time.”
“How much do you need?”
“About 30 minutes.”
“....”
30 minutes.
It wasn’t a very long time to create a rift between one world, but in a situation like now where one hour is urgent, it was such a distant time that it felt like an eternity.

“okay. “I’ll try to hold on until then.”
However, since the entrance to the sanctuary was damaged, there was no other way out other than Cassia’s shadow.
Ojin took a deep breath and grabbed his spear.
He twisted his body, letting out the magical power of the stigmata that had been forcibly squeezed out of the magic circuit that was as dry as a desert.
“Ugh... bitter. Phew.”
Just spreading magical power throughout my body caused terrible pain, as if a sharp piece of metal had been thrust into my blood vessels.
Pajik Pajijik!
Suppressing the surging pain, I let out a blue thunderbolt.
Is it because the mana is almost depleted?
Thunderbolt, which usually burned fiercely like a hungry beast, lost its momentum as if its teeth had fallen out.
‘If you don’t have teeth, you have to chew with your gums.’
I swung my spear and swatted away the gathering black clouds.
“I will help too.”
“I like it. So I just have to hold on for 30 minutes?”
When Isabella was about to step forward with Ha-eun.
A black ‘snake’ crawled out from their shadow and climbed up their leg.
“sister?”
“Hmm?”
Mobius is already dead, so the ‘snake’ that crawls out of the shadows now must be Cassia’s.
Isabella and Ha-eun tilted their heads and turned towards Cassia.
“....”
Cassia, who glanced at me, turned without saying a word and continued chanting to open the ‘crack’.
“What are you doing all of a sudden...”
Isabella frowned and tried to argue, but her words were cut off.
The snake that climbed up her leg whispered something near her ear.
“Hmph, I know.”
What did I hear?
Isabella snorted and quickly turned her head as if it was not the same.
“ha.”
Instead of answering, Ha-eun sighed deeply and nodded.
She took out a cigarette pack from her pocket and then took out a candle.
“I’m really sick of it.”
I lifted the candle, glaring at the gathering black clouds.
Grumble!
The tip of the candle burned red and fierce flames floated in the air like a will-o’-the-wisp.
It wasn’t a flame burning so fiercely as if it would set the world on fire.
Still, the condition was a little better than the misdiagnosis that left him in total disrepair.
“Burn up.”
With a low chant, the flames floating in the air were shot at high speed toward the black clouds.
Gurgling!
The black clouds scorched by the flames twitched and retreated.
Even if it had been driven away once, the black clouds would have attacked again fiercely, but stopped moving like a gentle sheep in front of Ha-eun.
“...So, even in this situation, I want to protect you, right?”
Ha-eun chewed her lips with a complicated expression, remembering the owner of this dark cloud.
Another Ojin, different from the Ojin she loves.
When I thought about Cheonma, who had to live a completely different life due to mixed fates, I felt the bitter taste of blood from my chewed lips.
“I don’t know if you will hear me saying this now.”
Ha-eun sighed deeply and bowed low.
