I Don’t Want This Reincarnation
chapter-287-30041322

『You should beg me not to kill you, you intruders!』

Lilith, with her bright yellow eyes gleaming like a cat, rushed at an incredible speed. Cheon Sa-yeon’s S-class sword and Lilith’s SS-class sword collided strongly in the air.

Cheon Sa-yeon barely balanced his staggering body and struggled to counteract Lilith’s fierce attack.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who had never had a fight with anyone besides him, seemed quite uncomfortable with my existence.

Still, it didn’t take long for him to adjust to a certain extent thanks to the fact that he had fought countless times over time. Kwajik, Lilith’s smashed the ground.

Cheon Sa-yeon turned his wrist to change the trajectory of the sword. Lilith also laughed loudly, avoiding Cheon Sa-yeon’s attack.

『Do you think you can keep avoiding it like that? If I caught you, I will pluck out both legs! I’ll cut off the head and put it in a big glass bottle!』

The battle between Lilith, who used her wings to fly in the air and attack without space restrictions, and Cheon Sa-yeon, who ran with both feet holding me, didn’t seem like it would end easily.

As time passed, we were at a disadvantage. In fact, the small cuts on the knife near Cheon Sa-yeon’s arms and waist were increasing rapidly.

‘What should I do?’

How could I help Cheon Sa-yeon without wind ability?

I closed my eyes and remembered the first time I came here and fought Lilith.

“It’s hard to keep up with your opponent’s speed. Too fast.”

“You don’t need to see your opponent.”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s voice was low and soft. Swords and swords collided with each other and the flames vibrated hotly.

‘All I have now is the memory of the future.’

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the side face of Cheon Sa-yeon, who was sweating in a cold sweat and wielding a sword. There was a clear difference from Cheon Sa-yeon in my memory, which seemed relaxed and bored all the time.

“Cheon Sa-yeon.”

As I pressed my upper body a little closer, Cheon Sa-yeon’s eyebrows trembled. Be patient, you punk.

“Look at your opponent’s body, not the sword.”

Right now, I have a high grade, but I couldn’t keep up with Lilith’s movements because I was an A-rank when I was Han Yi-gyeol.

But Cheon Sa-yeon was different from me. My vision had only narrowed due to the pressure of meeting an opponent and an unfamiliar situation I was experiencing for the first time, but if I relaxed, I would win.

So what I could do now.

“Right side. If this attack is blocked, it will fly again.”

Before I could finish my words, Lilith really attacked the right. Cheon Sa-yeon’s gaze, who had blocked the tip of the sharp sword, fell on me for a brief moment.

Lilith’s attack patterns and counterparts, which I saw while helping Cheon Sa-yeon’s fight with my wind ability, were still clearly engraved in my mind.

“Aim at its left arm when Lilith comes close again. It’s definitely the left arm.”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s eyes turned slightly downwards. The shoulders were pulled back and the lower body tightened.

Lilith, who flew high from the ceiling, descended towards us again.

“Move as fast as you can.”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s sword now had no wind ability to help him get to the target quickly. So I had no choice but to leave it to his skill and luck.

Cold energy burst out of Cheon Sa-yeon’s body I was touching and the blade of the sword covered with lava-like blood split the air. Like before, as if a snake swallowed its prey, the sword was mercilessly lodged in Lilith’s left shoulder.

Lilith opened its mouth and let out a long rusty sound.

『Haaak! Kiaaak!』

Lilith struggled in pain as Cheon Sa-yeon pulled out his sword.

The blood that had dug into the wound and the blood on the shoulder simmered and began to burn, melting Lilith’s flesh.

『I will kill you! I will kill you!』

The angry Lilith stomped on its feet. Kugugung, dozens of monsters poured out as the ceiling and the walls around the hall collapsed.

“Keuk…!”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who cut off the head of the monster that rushed at me, smashed it on the spot.

Monsters that appeared from all directions flocked to us like dogs. Blood and flesh splattered, I looked around the hall to find where Lilith was hiding.

“Cheon Sa-yeon, the monsters will retreat only after finding and killing Lilith.”

“Do you know the location?”

“At 12 o’clock and 5 o’clock, behind the third pillar at 7 o’clock.”

I explained to the present Cheon Sa-yeon the position that the future Cheon Sa-yeon told me.

“It’s 5 o’clock now!”

Behind the wreckage of the collapsed wall, Lilith’s wingtips were barely visible.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who stepped on the head of the statue of an angel embedded in the hall, jumped high and landed at 5 o’clock.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who found the bewildered Lilith beyond the hazy dust, exhaled a weary breath.

“Found you.”

Lilith, who managed to block Cheon Sa-yeon’s attack, hurriedly pulled back and shouted.

『Ho, hold on!』

At that cry, dozens of monsters stopped moving all at once. Lilith’s left arm was burnt out because of Cheon Sa-yeon’s ability, so there was no trace of it.

『If you kill me, you won’t be able to save other humans!』

Unlike Cheon Sa-yeon, who hardened his face at Lilith trying to negotiate with the hostages, I only sighed.

『If you want to save the hostages, get down on your knees in front of me right now!』

Oh, my. You’re doing a lot of things.

There was nothing more to hear. Having moved away from Cheon Sa-yeon, I opened my mouth while ignoring Lilith.

“Kill it, Cheon Sa-yeon.”

“What?”

『What did you say?』

Cheon Sa-yeon and Lilith were surprised at the same time when I spoke firmly.

“I know where the hostages are, so you can kill it.”

『Hung, you’re talking like a hole in your mouth. No one knows the place but me! Don’t do anything you will regret!』

“I told you to kill it?”

『It seems that you don’t feel sorry for the humans caught by me!』

“Cheon Sa-yeon.”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who was staring at me with his eyes narrowed, swung his sword without taking his eyes off me.

Chwaak, Lilith’s head, whose neck had been cut off, fell to the ground and soon its body fell backwards. Kiiiiik! The monsters who realized that Lilith was dead ran away.

“I killed it as you said.”

The cold, sober voice sounded like it was testing me.

“What are we going to do now?”

“Sure, what should we do.”

There was no time to feel sad at Cheon Sa-yeon’s attitude like that.

I grabbed Lilith’s sword next to Lilith’s corpse and lifted it up. The thin and pretty sword was heavy and sharp unlike its look which like a decorative sword.

Holding the sword handle with both hands, I cut off Lilith’s right arm. And I handed it over to Cheon Sa-yeon.

“Hold it.”

Even if it was a monster, I didn’t want to carry something that resembled a human arm.

Perhaps it was because I knew where the living beings were locked up, Cheon Sa-yeon simply took the arm.

“Take this too.”

Lilith’s sword, which was originally owned by Cheon Sa-yeon, was also returned to him.

“It’s the SS-class sword Lilith used. Considering the fight in the future, it would be better to take it.”

“……”

“It looks good on you, too.”

To relieve the rigid atmosphere, I added a few words and then moved on.

I fumbled through the wall just below the large chandelier, found a hidden button and pressed it.

Gurung, the round hole appeared with the sound of the walls collided. When I pointed at the place with my eyes, Cheon Sa-yeon inserted Lilith’s arm.

Kwarururung, kugung!

Then, the ground shook to the point where it was difficult to keep balancing and the entrance to the underground slowly appeared.

“Let’s go down. The others are right down there.”

“……”

“Cheon Sa-yeon?”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who didn’t follow me, stood with an expressionless face and stared at me, opening his mouth.

“You don’t just know how to clear this gate.”

“…is that the problem?”

“It will depend on who you are.”

A bitter smile came out of the sight of him being vigilance.

Cheon Sa-yeon’s situation, who couldn’t comfortably trust the person who helped him, was just pitiful. It was probably harder to believe because of the questionable behaviour I had shown.

So I came up with the answer that would be most helpful to Cheon Sa-yeon in the current situation.

“It’s enough to doubt who I am after checking that the guild members are alive.”

“……”

“And you don’t have to believe me. There are some people who have a harder time trusting others than anything else. I used to be like you once. So I fully understand.”

At the words of sincerity, Cheon Sa-yeon looked more confused and lowered his head slightly.

* * *

When I went down the stairs on the ground of the hall, a large underground appeared.

The clear team, who entered the gate through the sand poured from the ceiling, was lying there. All were passed out.

Cheon Sa-yeon, who quickly ran toward them, looked at Park Geon-ho, who was closest. Cheon Sa-yeon, who carefully checked his breathing and pulse, breathed a sigh of relief.

“The exit is over there.”

On the right side of the underground, the most cornered place. Pointing to the oval-shaped gate exit filled with dark blue light, I smiled profusely.

“I told you to believe me.”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s gaze followed me and the exit once. He asked me as he got up while looking at Park Geon-ho.

“Are you really the existence sent by the Prophets?”

“Yeah.”

It wasn’t Elohim and Elahah in this time period, but it was true that they did send me anyway.

Perhaps it was because the clear team was all safe or maybe because I had experienced that I knew the way properly. Cheon Sa-yeon, who faced me, was exuding much less sensitive energy.

“What is your name?”

“My…”

Wait a minute. Is it okay if I tell him my name?

I wasn’t Han Yi-gyeol. Kwon Se-hyun… if I said it, Cheon Sa-yeon was going to look for it in vain….

“Well. I’ll let you know when we meet again later.”

“Are you talking expensively with just your name?”

“Yeah. It’s an expensive name.”

I looked at Cheon Sa-yeon and the clear team behind him.

Even if no one bothered to tell me, I could feel I had to go back now. The clear team would wake up soon and Cheon Sa-yeon would have to get out of this terrible gate.

As soon as I thought of that, a pure white light began to flow from my body. It was a sign that the intervention ability was coming to an end.

“What the…”

Cheon Sa-yeon, who saw me gradually becoming transparent with the light, grabbed my wrist with a surprised face.

Somehow I felt a little sorry. In the end, this was the limit of what I could help. I felt more bitter because I knew how long time I would have to cross to see him again.

“Cheon Sa-yeon.”

What comfort could I give him now?

I didn’t know the answer well, but there was one thing that came to mind right now. I held Cheon Sa-yeon’s hand and smiled at him.

“Once you have made a decision, don’t be swayed. If you shake, no one can protect you.”

That was what you said to me, Cheon Sa-yeon.

“Wait…!”

“See you later.”

The moment I said my last goodbye, my eyes were filled with pure white light.

Huung, my body flew into the air and I lost my consciousness for a moment.

“Uh…”

How much time had passed and when I opened my eyes again, I was transformed into Han Yi-gyeol’s body, just like when I first entered the book.
