Chapter 145: Resting Place of Rusted Swords (1) ‘I have finished receiving it, my lord.’
Inside an office at Lair, the clone was receiving the memories of what had happened with BM. After taking in all the memories that had been sent, the clone organised them before sending his own thoughts to Yu Jitae.
‘However… There is one question in my head, which I dare to ask your wisdom of, my lord.’
The clone had the ability to share memories with the Regressor but there were certain memories that weren’t shared. Mainly, they consisted of ‘things that could affect the clone’s personality’ and only a portion of them were shared. It was an arrangement made by the Regressor to enable a smooth operation of the clone.
And memories regarding chimeras also fell into that category.
‘Are you truly wishing to help BM?’ the clone asked.
At the current stage, what Yu Jitae had to be the most cautious of weren’t dragons nor demons. The hostility from the other side of the Horizon of Providence was cumbersome, but that too could be dealt with his abilities.
More importantly, what Yu Jitae had to be the most mindful of was the flow of time being shaken beyond his control. That was also why he need a specific period of time and location in order to kill Wei Yan and Noah.
Due to that, Yu Jitae didn’t share his power or knowledge with others without a good reason since he was an existence that could twist the flow of time.
Fortunately, the flow of the world had its ‘Correction of Cause and Effect’, and the so-called butterfly effect did not exist. However, there were strong ‘causes’ that could resemble the butterfly effect.
Small waves could not dare shake the ocean itself.
But…
‘As you are aware of it, my lord, a human-type chimera has the ability to shake the future.
‘It is very dangerous and very destructive. Even in the previous iterations, it was fortunate that BM had failed on repeat and it is an element that must be eliminated in this iteration as well according to my knowledge.’
Human-type chimeras were dangerous.
They were immensely dangerous hazards whose danger levels could never be assessed. It was evident from how the ones that had brought BM’s alternate world, ‘Arandot’ to destruction was a human-type chimera and its followers.
However, Yu Jitae did not force BM to give up. Instead, he was giving him an opportunity, practically telling him to try it one more time if he was willing to put the underground labyrinth on the line.
That was when Yu Jitae’s thoughts were conveyed.
‘…Yes, my lord. BM was killed by you in the 5th and the 6th iteration, and in the 3rd and the 4th, he committed suicide straight after the Second Great War came to an end.’
The reason BM was killed by Yu Jitae in the 5th and the 6th iterations was for him to plunder the underground labyrinth. However, the clone did not know why BM committed suicide in the 3rd and the 4th iterations.
And right now, that reason was finally conveyed by Yu Jitae.
‘…My. He looked well-mannered but it seems that he was a lunatic.’ the clone gave an empty laugh.
The more riches someone had, the more lingering attachment they had to life. Like how Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China,
He then suddenly stopped his words.
“Hmm… actually, what is in there? I just heard there was something good.”
Myung Yongha searched for something with his watch.
“Ahh. It’s here. They imitated the interesting environment of a dungeon by bringing interesting insects, plants and animals apparently… It doesn’t include everything they have but it’s already interesting enough that they have a KM-13 tree, right?”
KM-13 was a tree that appeared in S ranked ruin-type dungeons and above. It could survive on any liquid including water, and gave different fruits depending on the liquid.
Yu Jitae gave a nod. He didn’t really understand what would be fun about it, but a new environment and a new life should be able to make the children happy.
They returned to the VVIP waiting room of the airplane.
Myung Yongha’s family was playing with the dragons. Gyeoul was chatting with the first son, Myung Jun-il, while Kaeul was hugging the second son with a sparkling gaze. Meanwhile, Yeorum was lying down on the sofa, scratching her stomach and staring at her watch.
There was also an unfamiliar yet acquainted person. Bom was with Jung Hawon, Myung Yongha’s wife, but there was also an old lady having a chat with them with a smile.
She was Li Hwa, whom Myung Yongha had brought from the Grand Natural Society.
When Yu Jitae came back, Bom’s eyes naturally turned towards him and she waved her hand. Li Hwa also gave a wrinkled smile at Yu Jitae.
“Would you like a glass? Hahat.”
Myung Yongha took out a bottle of champagne, and they clinked their glasses. Yu Jitae then looked at the dragons.
Gyeoul was having her gummies, while Myung Jun-il was sitting right next to her, throwing glances. The child carefully moved his bum and approached her.
Soon, Gyeoul turned towards Myung Jun-il.
“H, hello. Noona…”
“…”
Unlike before where she would’ve stared blankly instead of greeting back, Gyeoul nodded with a faint smile. It was thanks to the etiquette taught by Bom.
“What are you eating?”
“…Gummies.”
“They look tasty.”
“…”
She couldn’t have a lot of gummies these days, because she had long finished the one bought by ahjussi. But today, Bom bought her some to commemorate the vacation and Gyeoul was having the gummies to her heart’s content.
Myung Jun-il, who usually didn’t like sweet stuff, pondered before opening his mouth.
“Umm, noona.”
“…?”
“What’s that yellow one like?”
“…Orange?”
“That red one?”
“…Strawberry?”
“The white one?”
Stopping her hand that was carrying another gummy to her mouth, Gyeoul looked at Myung Jun-il.
“…Why?”
“Uh? No it’s j, just, it looked tasty…”
“…Mhmm.”
“Noona. Can’t you give me that white one?”
Gyeoul smiled.
“…Nn.”
“Uh? R, really?”
He reached out with a bright smile but Gyeoul stared at the child’s hand before tilting her head.
“…What are you doing?”
“Uh? Weren’t you giving me one?”
“…No?”
That was when Myung Jun-il realised. Just then, he asked, ‘Can’t you’ and Gyeoul replied ‘Nn’, saying that he couldn’t.
“Ah…”
Myung Jun-il became sulky.
