I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

Chapter 191

“It’s a place without people around…”

While Elohim thought about where to connect the passage, I grabbed the long sword and scrambled to and fro, not knowing what to do.

Should I wear this on my back or on my waist? No, it was difficult because it was large enough to be covered anywhere.

Piiii.

As both me and Elohim fell into silence, Fox, who had been standing still and watching us, came up on my shoulder and wept a little.

“I have to go back to Gangnam anyway, but it seems the easiest way to connect to an empty shopping street nearby.”

“Yeah. Great.”

“And the sword…”

Elohim, who looked at the sword and Fox alternately, opened his mouth.

“Why don’t you leave it to Fox?”

What do you mean? As I tilted my head at the sudden remark, Fox stretched out his front paws with a somewhat proud look.

Piik!

“Oh?”

Fox’s body with its front paws on the sword became increasingly transparent, and at the same time, the sword began to become transparent as well. I was bewildered at the amazing sight and asked.

“No, you haven’t learned how to be transparent yet…”

“I think he learned it when he went to the forest ten days ago.”

“What? But how about the sword?”

“I haven’t been able to explain it. Those kids can make anything they touch transparent.”

“Incredible.”

Fox, clear again, raised his chin and took a triumphant pose. After staring at him for a while, I turned my attention to Elohim.

“But… why didn’t you tell me earlier, why are you telling me now?”

“Um, that too, because I forgot to explain…”

“El…”

Even with my suspicious eyes, Elohim smiled brightly, pretending not to know.

“Now that it has come to pass, you must go with Fox. Don’t you need that child’s invisibility to carry the sword safely?”

Piiik! Piik!

Hearing what Elohim said, Fox cried with joy as I could only sigh.

“It’s too much, El.”

“I’m sorry. It would be better to take him though. Trust me, he will help a lot.”

“…all right.”

Anyway, as he said, Fox was needed to take the sword. If I walked around the streets of Gangnam with a sword, I would be taken to the police station soon after.

In response to my reply, Fox grabbed the sword and flew into the air. That little bastard with a heavy sword carried it around well. It definitely felt like he wasn’t an ordinary animal.

“Now that the sword problem has been resolved, I’m thinking of opening the passage. Is that okay?”

“Yes.”

When I left the sword to the floating Fox and nodded my head, the light emanating from his body became stronger for an instant. In that state, Elohim stirred the air once, and a white passage that had been seen many times appeared.

“Well, then.”

Elohim, who succeeded in connecting the passage, looked back. A face with a soft smile turned towards me.

“It’s time to say goodbye now.”

“Ah…”

“When Cheon Sa-yeon’s book is finished, I will come to visit you. It will probably take a month or two.”

In return, as the eyes weren’t used, the period for the completion of Cheon Sa-yeon’s book was extended. Still, thanks to the book, I was relieved to think that we could meet again in the future.

“Don’t work too hard.”

“Oh, dear. That is my concern.”

Elohim, who came closer, pulled me into his big arms and hugged me. The scent of flowers was stronger than ever, and the fluttering hair swept across my cheeks.

“Please take care of yourself, Se-hyun-ah. You are the most important thing to us.”

“……”

His warm body and friendly voice made me feel more comfortable than ever before. After a moment’s hesitation, I raised both of my stiff arms and placed them against Elohim’s back.

“Don’t worry. Don’t you know what my abilities are.”

“That makes me even more anxious.”

“I will move with caution.”

“If there is something you need to see before the book is finished, I will go to your dream.”

“I understand.”

Elohim, who had been holding me for a long time, released me after kissing my forehead one last time. He stroked my hair as if stroking his child, taking a step back from the passage.

“Go, Se-hyun-ah. I always watch you.”

“Yes. I’ll see you later.”

Piiik.

Fox followed me as I walked into the passage. Finally, Elohim’s smiling face was swallowed up in pure white light.

* * *

As Elohim said that it led me to an empty shopping district, I came out of the passage and was able to face the empty interior of the building.

As soon as I arrived safely, the passage turned into a swarm of lights and disappeared in an instant.

“Use invisibility.”

Piii.

When I spoke to the flying Fox while holding the sword, he became transparent along with the sword. It was nice to be transparent, but I was a little nervous because I couldn’t see him.

“I will fly slowly, so you have to follow me carefully. Got it?”

Piik. Piiik.

There was nothing I could say to be worried about, so I had no choice but to believe. I looked around carefully as I listened to the chirping Fox in my ear.

It was an empty office with one or two dusty office desks lying at an angle on the floor, littered with scruffy parchment papers. I looked at the nearby window, just in case. It was a bit stiff, but fortunately, it opened well.

“Hm.”

The summer breeze blew lightly, and I could see people passing by below. If it was this high, it would be about 10 floors. A car horn sounded in the distance.

It was then that I realized that I had returned to Korea. After resting my chin against the window and looking at the bustling city of Seoul for a while, I straightened my leaning upper body.

“Let’s go, Fox.”

It wasn’t allowed to enter an empty building without an owner, so it was better to leave quickly. Raising my energy and wrapping my body in the wind, I came out through the window.

It had been a while since I flew this high. I raised the height a bit so that people in the high-rise building wouldn’t notice and touched my lips.

‘I’d rather go to Requiem.’

I came out without a word and some time had passed… If I suddenly appeared, everyone would be bewildered.

Above all, they might not let me in. In particular, these days, because of the Praus followers, the security of each guild had become stricter, so if I went in recklessly, I could be caught right away.

‘It’s embarrassing to even imagine…’

However, it wasn’t easy to make up my mind to go to see Ha Tae-heon because there were a lot of things going on right before we were apart.

“I have no money.”

Piik.

As I sighed deeply and lamented, the invisible Fox wept as if comforting me. Thank you, thank you.

No matter how hard it was, I couldn’t keep flying, so I came down looking for a place with a moderate number of people. Fortunately, no one could be seen in the alleyway that was slightly out of Gangnam street.

I had nothing, my face was on the news, and I had no definite destination. If I had a cell phone, I would have contacted Kim Woo-jin or Min Ah-rin. No, if I had money before, somehow…

“Let, let me go!”

As I sat down with my back against the wall of the alley and pondered what to do next, I heard a frightened cry from the side of the road opposite.

“……?”

Looking for something, I poked my face and saw a black man threatening two young-looking students.

“I, I said I’m sorry…”

“Shut up! Kkuuuk, I’m going to kill you all, I have to kill you…”

Noticing that the knife was in the man’s hand, who staggered with his face bowed, I hurriedly raised the wind.

“Die!”

At the same time as I intervened, the man swung his knife. I hurriedly twisted my upper body to avoid the attack, grabbing the man’s wrist and breaking it. Thud, the knife fell to the ground and twisted his bones.

“Kkuaak!”

I thrust my fist straight into the centre of the man’s face, who was crying in pain. The man with a broken nose and nosebleed fell unconscious. I glanced down at the fainted man, shaking my slightly tingling hand.

‘The smell of alcohol…’

Was he just a drunkard? However, the unpleasant energy emanating from holding the knife was too obvious for that. If my prediction was correct, this man would be a low-ranking talented person.

Was it the influence of the Praus followers? I couldn’t believe in such a broad daylight like this… It might be evidence that their power was getting stronger.

“Tha, thank you…”

My thought was cut off by the greeting from behind as I looked around belatedly. Two boys, who looked like high school students, and onlookers whispering with cell phones caught my eye. In addition, the police siren could be heard from afar.

I’m doomed…

“Yeah.”

More than anything, this got complicated when the police arrive. I kicked the knife that had fallen on the ground, pushing it to the other side of the man, and said to the boy who was still half-conscious.

“Don’t touch the knife and hand it over when the policeman comes later.”

“Pardon? Ah, uh. Yes.”

“And maybe this is yours?”

I asked, picking up the black hat lying right next to the man. I smiled at the person, who suddenly shook his head, and put the hat on my head.

“I have it in return for helping you.”

“Yes?”

I saw a police car running from the other side. Now it was really time to run away. As the strength of the wind wrapped around my body was increased and I flew away, voices of astonishment erupted from here and there.

The police car arrived when I dodged to the roof of a nearby building. Sitting on the roof railing, I watched the situation and called Fox.

“Are you following me well?”

Piiik.

“You’re holding a sword well, aren’t you?”

Pik!

When I asked the question again, Fox responded with a bit of annoyance. Damn, you wouldn’t even let me ask you twice.

“Well, now…”

What should I do. I took off my hat and ruffled my bangs, thinking. The soft, gentle breeze of summer swayed my bangs.

First, it seemed to be the right choice to go to the Requiem Guild. It was also where I had been… If there were still items left behind, I wanted to return them.

If I was lucky enough to meet Cheon Sa-yeon, let’s hear some stories about the progress of the Praus followers.

‘I’ll have to visit Ha Tae-heon later.’

Of course, I had to figure out how to keep the sword before that. I couldn’t leave that heavy sword to Fox.

Let’s approach the Requiem Guild building and look at the situation first. Then I would have to figure out a way to break through the guard.
