Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me - Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me chapter 41

41 – Save the witch (3)

The moment my name in my previous life was called, two questions came to my mind.

The first question is, how the hell does this witch know my name?

‘The real Katarina.’

I did it by chance, but it was as expected.

Sorceress Katarina, who was active in the resistance together in her previous life, was brainwashed by demons.

The life support system attached to her body was actually forcibly maintaining Katarina’s already corpse body.

How strong is the power of a magical engineering device?

‘It’s not the time to think about that.’

The second question was also the same.

Even though this witch is Katarina, a resistance sorceress with whom she had a connection in her previous life, how did she recognize me?

Even Elfin or Justina couldn’t recognize me at first glance.

Elfin recognized her from the way she wielded her sword, but that was possible because she was an Elfin-level swordsman, and would be difficult for mages like Katarina.

Now Katarina’s voice is like reading my inner self.

[Yes, that’s right. I heard what kind of person you are.]

[What? No, wait. Can you hear it?]

[What should I say? The feeling that your memories flowed into me as the two of us were connected by your abilities? Anyway, it’s reincarnation. Amazing… It seems you’ve been through a lot in the meantime.]

[It’s not cool because I feel like I’ve been exposed all of a sudden…….]

Cheongsimsul was originally the ability to hear the other person’s heart.

By strengthening the hearing, the sensory organs transcend their original role and enable them to hear everything, even the inaudible and inaudible.

However, it seemed that something had gone wrong, either because it was the first time I had used it in real combat or because I was inexperienced.

‘It’s not Cheongsimsul, but it’s connected and even my memories entered the opponent.’

Once I understood, I thought it was fortunate that I wasn’t fighting a real enemy.

Because the other person knows what kind of skills I am good at and what my weaknesses are.

It is not only me who listens to the other person’s heart.

Fortunately, however, she was now fighting Katarina, her old friend.

I don’t know how it happened, but a wizard from the past who lived for 500 years while being captured and brainwashed by demons.

It was not a problem at all if it was Katarina, whose external personality and internal personality were separated.

After all, the one who listens to my heart and talks to me is the real Katarina, and the one fighting me now is the brainwashed fake Katarina.

[Uh, wait a minute. The witch is trying to blow the icicle.]

[Witch?]

[Yes, I decided to call myself a witch fighting outside. Here I am Katarina, a terrifying old witch out there. How is it?]

[…] … It’s easy to tell them apart.]

As she said, a blizzard caused by a witch was still raging in reality.

On the other hand, standing in the center of it and enduring the cold while confronting the witch, it was never easy to have a conversation with the witch.

Katarina is now in a completely different state from her inside and outside.

Even though she had a conversation with me, it was no wonder that in real life she mercilessly threw dozens of icicles and ice bombs.

‘I have to keep focusing on the battle while having a conversation.’

But the next moment, Katarina’s few words greatly reduced the difficulty of the battle with the witch.

Because Katarina herself told her how the witch would attack.

[Anyway, aim for the right center of your body, two feet of icicles, and one foot of icicles will aim for your ankles, so you have to avoid it.]

This was the original role of Cheongsimsul.

Listen to the opponent’s thoughts during battle and predict the battle.

You can listen to where the enemy is aiming and prepare to block it in advance, or even if you suddenly make a plan, you can listen first and counterattack.

Somehow, it became a strange form in which another personality told me the attack pattern of the current personality, but anyway, the essence was like that.

[You even warned me, you’re a very kind witch.]

Katarina frowned when I said it as if I was grumbling.

[So I’m Katarina, and the woman outside is a witch?]

As Katarina said, the witch immediately created an icicle.

In the snowstorm, the icicles made of snowflakes and ice powder flew faster and sharper than before, aiming for my life.

With my usual reaction speed, I would have narrowly avoided or attacked, but after hearing the warning, I was able to avoid it with ease.

I was amazed because it felt like I was moving knowing the future.

[I’ll keep telling you what kind of attack will come like this. Still, don’t be vigilant and be conscious.]

[I wouldn’t know if I worked together. Don’t be careless.]

[Cook-Cook, that’s right. By the way, it seems that the sense organs were strengthened with protection magic…… It’s interesting. There are many shortcomings, but I want to make up for it, but it’s a pity that I don’t have time.]

[No time? What does that mean?]

Still aiming for the witch’s leash in real life, I replied.

Just as the barrier doesn’t disappear even if you cut off her cloak, didn’t Katarina come back to her senses just by cutting her leash?

[If I die soon, me. Not physically, but in a mental sense.]

[…] … What?]

I was hit by a blizzard, my mouth gaping as if frozen.

What does it mean to die suddenly after meeting each other after 500 years?

I was in the midst of rejoicing not only with Elfin, Liwin, and Justina, but also with a relationship from my previous life that I hadn’t even thought of.

But I couldn’t understand the sudden mental death.

[A normal human mind can’t stand 500 years, Dane.]

[But, you still…….]

[Barely endured. It had already run out at the time I told you to resist brainwashing and save me.]

[If that’s the case, don’t just come out and endure it a little longer!]

When I shouted, Katarina smiled shyly and explained.

[Ahahahaha, if I hadn’t forcibly lowered the power of my magic while using my strength in between, you and Charlotte wouldn’t be people of this world anymore. Even if you look at it like this, it’s a wizard who has lived for over 500 years.]

Hearing that, I could understand.

[…] … It was worth doing at first, but the reason the magic became fiercer as time went by was because your influence was weakening.]

[That’s right. Anyway, even if my personality completely disappears, my body will be the same as long as the life support system is intact. But then you will become a real ‘witch’ who has no choice but to kill you and Charlotte.]

Even if a little time passes like this, Katarina’s personality will completely die.

Seeing as she said that she couldn’t stand 500 years, even if her brainwashing leash were cut off, her life would be attached to her, so she would be a ruin.

But if she doesn’t cut her leash when time passes and Katarina’s spirit is completely dead, she will be dealing with a 500-year-old witch who is intent on killing me and her Charlotte. .

[But…… Asking for help.]

[Yes, you can save me.]

[By breaking her leash? But even if you cut off her leash, your personality dies, so it’s the same as becoming a dead person with only your body alive.]

[That’s right. But she’s a Dane, don’t you think that if she lived 500 years, she lived too long for an ordinary human?]

[That’s…….]

Only then did I understand Katarina’s words.

When I asked to save the bad witch, I did not mean to help Katarina find this body again and return to normal.

All she really wanted was a peaceful and complete rest.

It was her real wish that her body and mind be in a state of rest at the same time.

[Kill me, Dane.]

[…] … Are you serious?]

[Yeah, I think it’s a kind of destiny. To be killed by the reincarnation of a colleague 500 years ago whom we met by chance. Although it may sound like a selfish request to you, who has to kill a former colleague…….]

[What is fate? Why are you dying all of a sudden? Yet you…….]

[A lot has happened in the 500 years without you, but unfortunately I don’t have time to tell you all about it. But if there’s one thing that’s certain, it’s that every day of my past 500 years has been no different from walking through hell.]

Katarina smiled broadly with a sad smile.

[Dane, only death can make me happy. Please end this hell.]

I was confused.

To be honest, my thoughts were not properly organized.

Isn’t it too much to ask you to kill a colleague from 500 years ago with your own hands?

It’s too much for me, and even more so for Katarina.

I wonder if there’s some way to somehow get Katarina back to her original state so she can live a normal, happy life.

If it was Dragon Justina, or if it was an elfin of the imperial family, it might know something amazing.

I still refused to do Katarina’s request, aiming only to sever her magic engineering brainwashing leash, and she nodded her head once.

[By the way, what the hell happened? Why are you being captured by demons and wearing magical engineering devices all over your body? Did the demon brothers and sisters do this?]

[No. Demon brother and sister, me too… It’s kind of a tool. A tool used by half demons of the Demon Realm. A puppet to carry out his purpose.]

[…] … Half of the demonic world?]

The moment I heard Katarina’s words, I thought of Liwin.

Liwin is a mixed race born between humans and demons.

Of course, Liwin is not the only half-horse in the world, but I was very confused when I even heard the word Demon King.

Did Justina mean Liwin’s change?

[You’re thinking of that kid named Liwin.]

[Yeah… But wait, how do you know him?]

[You said your memories flowed in. Rest assured anyway Because the half-horse of the Demonic Realm that controls me isn’t that kid named Li Yun. But….]

[However?]

Katarina smiled bitterly as I tilted her head.

[There is a cooperative relationship between the two. In ways that help each other achieve different goals. It’s kind of an alliance. Your friend probably knows this part better than I do.]

[Elfin or Justina…….]

Liwin’s name came from an unexpected place.

First of all, I was relieved that Liwin was not the one behind the demon brother and sister and the witch who tried to kill me and the other students.

However, the story that he was cooperating with the people behind it for a purpose was uncomfortable.

‘When I go back, I’ll definitely have to ask Elfin and Justina.’

I spoke to Katarina again with a firm heart.

[Then… What is the purpose of the half horse that manipulated you? Why did you hide in the mountain behind the academy? Isn’t there some reason?]

Actually, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask, but there was not enough time to listen to all the stories of 500 years.

But I wanted to know why Katarina was captured and manipulated by him, and what he wanted.

[That’s the purpose of hiding in the mountain behind the academy, that’s right. Wait, before that, an ice bomb will fly to your head, so avoid it.]

As Katarina said, I cut off her ice bomb with a golden blade, then listened to her again, concentrating on her listening skills.

[This is probably something even the Demon Brothers and Sisters can’t say by voice. This is information that only I can give you. It’s really good to be called cheongsimsul.]

[Okay, so quickly.]

[Ahahahaha, as expected, your impatient personality is no different between 500 years ago and now. If you want to get along with the mages, you need to relax a bit. Anyway, the purpose is simple. Target identification and capture.]

[Captured?]

When I heard the word capture, I naturally thought of demons and humans.

I thought there was something hidden in the academy, and the demons came looking for it, so it was a surprising feeling.

[Yeah, I heard that they practice mostly on the back mountain. After hearing that there was a goal in the special class just formed, the demon brother and sister and I waited for a long time on this mountain.]

[Goal for the special class?! Are you saying one of us is your target?]

[According to the informant, yes. By the way, I don’t even know who the informant is… I’m sorry.]

[No, that’s enough.]

Listening to Katarina’s story, it seemed that there was an infiltrator inside Denbergen Academy.

It was almost certain that I had obtained information about the composition of the students in the special class and where the first class of the special class was held.

It would be difficult to guess because there were so many candidates, but it was information that had to be delivered to Justina and Elfin after escaping.

[Anyway, I was told to catch the target and kill all the rest as ordered. In fact, it would have been possible if I had shown all my true skills from the beginning.]

[Is that so?]

[Huh?]

Anyway, the guy who gave the order from behind Katarina and the demonic brother and sister didn’t seem to know everything.

He didn’t seem to know that Elfin, the genius elf and leader of the royal family’s dark department, had been appointed as a professor, and that Justina, the head of the dragon board, was attending the academy as a student.

If I had known that, I wouldn’t have said that even Katarina could handle two people.

[So, who is the target? Which of the 6 of us are you? If you include the professor, is he one of the seven?]

[No, not a professor. Among the students obviously that’s…….]

Katarina’s voice gradually lost strength.

She was proof that her personality was fading.

I was alerted to the thought that if we continued our conversation just a little longer, Katarina’s personality would be completely swallowed up by her ‘her witch’.

However, Katarina gritted her teeth and managed to get her voice out.

[First of all, Dane, you are not. He wasn’t even a prince. Cornet or Yuzu… No, it wasn’t Justina either.]

[Then, Guinness?]

My hands trembled as I remembered the red-eyed cat-beast, the summoning wizard.

However, it was someone else that Katarina pointed out.

[Charlotte.]

[…] … Shallot?]

[Yes, he was our target.]

Is the Charlotte Katarina is talking about right now that Charlotte?

A maid who has always served the Rehinar family.

She is a genius girl who showed talent in magic and followed me to Den Bergen Academy.

I never thought that the name of Charlotte, who saved me several times with defensive magic in the previous battle, would appear here.

[…] … Charlotte, why?]

At my question, Charlotte uttered an incomprehensible word.

[The last legacy of the old kingdom, it is said to be a necessary piece for the reconstruction of the great Delin.]

…… Delin?

The Delin Kingdom that I destroyed 500 years ago?
