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 44

44 – Liwin’s whereabouts (2)

He hesitated to say more for a while, but as I continued to stare at him, Elfin smiled as if he couldn’t win.

If up until now it had been the story of Elfin, this was the story of how Liwin and Justina took after I died.

Actually, I didn’t know Liwin, but I could have predicted what Justina would be like.

“Justina must have left to establish her academy, right?”

“Yeah, I didn’t know then… Looking at it now, she probably did. But she said at the time that she was leaving for the dragon nest.”

“Dragon Nest?”

“Perhaps he went to tell his people. Play… No, can I still call Justina’s life ‘play’? Anyway, I will extend the game a little longer. I will spend more time in the world of humans.”

“Justina, that… ….”

According to her words, Justina started acting without hesitation almost as soon as I died.

Building an academy, continuing my dream, waiting for my reincarnation.

If it was just continuing my dream, I would have just built a small school in the countryside, and if it was just waiting for my reincarnation, I wouldn’t have to do anything.

Justina, no doubt, she did both at the same time and waited for me.

She even sets the goal of protecting me at the Academy of Combinations.

“I told you before, but I didn’t know at the time. Not just Justina, but also LeeWindow. I had no idea what either of you were thinking.”

“If you didn’t know then… Do you know now?”

“Yes, I found out after a while. Justina said she would set up an academy, and she returned. She has been hiding her identity since the school opened until now, but since she revealed it to the imperial family, I was able to find out too.”

“It disappeared 500 years ago, but the academy is less than 400 years old, so there was a gap in between.”

“Yes, but never mind that. Judging from the fact that it took a long time to build, it seems that the preparation itself was very meticulous. I studied a lot in many ways to build the best academy on the continent.”

“I see… ….”

She could see why she had to build the best academy.

That way the reincarnated me will be more likely to visit you.

Actually, if Justina’s academy had been ranked second or third on the continent, I would have been sent elsewhere by her father.

Through this, I learned about Justina’s whereabouts, but what I was most curious about was Liwin’s whereabouts.

“Liwin? Where did Liwin go?”

“I found out about this later, but it seems that Li Yun also left for the Devil’s Realm with his own goals.”

“The Devil’s Land… ….”

“Well, let’s talk about that slowly. It will be easier to understand if you listen to the other story first.”

I nodded. Elfin returned her story, which had slipped away to her side for a while, back to her own past.

“So, after that, I left the land of old Delin and wandered around the continent in a daze. I gained combat experience and met a lot of people. It wasn’t that long, though.”

“How long has it been?”

“Well, about 20 years?”

“It’s long… ….”

“Ahahahaha, by the way, haven’t you met men?”

The look in Elfin’s eyes suddenly changed after he had been talking about it.

Like when they pushed me to leave the academy and find the flower of resurrection, my eyes were unwavering.

“Then, by chance, I got information about the Resurrection Flower. From then on, I only thought of reviving Master. Somehow, rumors spread and I was scouted by the imperial family…….”

“Did you work in the dark since then?”

“No, at first I moved around the battlefield. It was at the height of the Empire’s efforts to devour the entire continent. I must have destroyed some armies, maybe.”

“…… Awesome, in many ways.”

Even though I briefly summarized it like this, I also knew that Elfin’s 500 years would not have been smooth by any means.

It was obvious that it would have been a complicated and difficult journey just by listening to the story.

How lonely he must have been when he wandered the continent alone, and how much heartache he must have had when helping the royal family for the flower of resurrection.

I felt sympathy for her because I knew that even though she pretended to be strong, she was actually a weak child.

“That’s why you knew Katarina.”

“Yeah, Katarina left right at the time D’Elyn fell and I haven’t been able to find her since then, but I never imagined she would end up like this.”

“She left immediately?”

“Katarina’s dream was to build a house in a quiet forest and live a peaceful life without the need for fame and fortune. But what did you do to Katarina, these demons…… !”

A sound like gnashing of teeth came from the corner of Elfin’s mouth.

Just as Katarina was a member of the Resistance Army to me, Katarina was a precious ally to Elfin.

At least I’ve sorted out my emotions a bit now, but I could understand Elfin’s anger like that.

But you need to know what you know.

There are so many things I don’t know right now.

And Elfin and Justina know that.

I ate her heart and looked straight into Elfin’s eyes.

“…… Katarina said she was being targeted by a guy called ‘The Last King of De Ellin’ because she was a resistance fighter.”

“Uh, uh uh…… She even said that.”

“And I even informed you that the last king of De Elin is allied with Liwin, and that she is targeting Charlotte in order to rebuild De Elin.”

“… ….”

“Do you know anything about this?”

Elfin remained silent for a while.

She seemed to be contemplating whether to answer this or not.

It’s true that I have a deep connection with my previous life, but now that I have the status of being the head of the imperial family’s dark department, I wonder if it can’t be helped.

Besides, he seemed to think that telling me this would put me in greater danger.

“…… OK, let me tell you. It’s a story you’ll find out anyway.”

However, Elfin put her hand on her forehead as if in desperation.

“Isn’t Justina not angry?”

“What if Ji gets angry? That lizard has so many things to hide.”

“To call my sister a lizard is a harsh word.”

“Hey, what about you?”

Elfin pursed her lips and looked at me before sighing.

“First of all, I don’t know why Charlotte is the target. By the way, what I don’t know is that the imperial family doesn’t know either.”

“…… I see.”

“Secondly, it is true that the last king of Delin is the culprit of the demonic realm’s disturbing movements recently and is aiming for the reconstruction of Delin.”

“You don’t know why you need Charlotte for that goal.”

“Yeah, what can I do? If she doesn’t tell Charlotte when she asks, she’ll have to forcefully dig up the information.”

I still couldn’t believe that Charlotte was hiding some big secret from her.

She’s been together for over 10 years, and she didn’t know anything during that time.

However, seeing that even the imperial family and Justina knew nothing, it was clear that there must be a tremendous truth hidden within.

“And the third.”

“Are you talking about Lee Win?”

“Yes, it is true that Liwin formed an alliance with a half-race demon who claimed to be the ‘last king of Delin. Since he left for the Devil’s Nest, he must have signed a contract there.”

“You didn’t go to the Demon Realm for the contract, did you?”

Elfin frowned at her and tilted her head.

“mmm, maybe not that. Wasn’t the reason why he decided to go for the first time just because he was curious about demons like himself? There must have been another goal.”

“Goal? It must be different from the last king of Delin, right?”

“Yeah, Liwin’s goal is different from him. The rebuilding of the Deadlyn Kingdom is not an issue at all for Liwin.”

“…… Then, what is Liwin trying to do?”

Quang!

At that moment, the door to the treatment room opened loudly.

Then a white-haired woman in a beautiful snow-white dress glided over to her familiar face.

Me and Elfin stood up at the same time and took a vigilant posture.

“Go there, Elfin.”

“Justina…… !”

Justina suddenly appeared and interrupted the conversation.

At other times, she wasn’t very happy, at least not now.

Are you doing this without telling me the reason properly and saying you’re going to protect me anyway?

No matter how much it is, shouldn’t I know a little bit now?

As I frowned, Justina suddenly put on a sad face.

“…… The main woman will explain this herself, so she should step back for a while.”

I swallowed at Justina’s unexpected invasion.

I thought he was trying to prevent me from speaking at all, but it wasn’t like that again.

If you think about it another way, it would be more credible to hear from Justina than to hear from just one elfin.

Justina wasn’t even refuting Elfin’s story at all.

“…… Like that.”

At first, Elfin was also in a fit of fuss, and she tried to stand up, asking why he was stopping her, but when she saw Justina’s face, she lowered her tail.

It’s a story that I hid somehow to protect myself, but now that I can’t hide it anymore, I wonder if I understood Justina’s feelings of wanting to do it myself.

But still, the interruption of her words must have made her angry. Heh, she made a noise and crossed her arms and sat with her butt on the bed I was lying on.

“Do you know Justina too? What is Li Yun trying to do?”

“…… I didn’t want to tell you. Dane, I’m afraid you’re in danger again. Like mayflies driven by light, I’m afraid I’ll go burn myself again.”

“I understand that, but now it’s time for me to know too. If you block it, I’ll figure it out another way. You know that too, right?”

“Whoops, that’s right. I’ve been with you for 10 years, how can I not know?”

At that moment, the atmosphere seemed to have calmed down a bit, so I smiled and asked.

“Isn’t 10 years a very short time for a dragon?”

“It can’t be.”

To that question, Justina answered calmly.

“Ten years with you is longer than 500 years without you.”

As a human who can live less than 100 years at most, it was difficult for me to realize exactly what Justina meant.

I wonder if the 500 years I spent waiting for me weren’t that long?

Or is it that the 10 years with me left a greater impact on my life, no, on my life than the 500 years of waiting for me?

She Presuming that it might be her latter, I approached her.

From noble mtl dot com

“Liwin’s primary target is Elfin, just like that guy.”

“…… Resurrection flower?”

“Yes. They must be eager to find the flower of resurrection in the legendary place called the Flower Garden.”

I frowned because I couldn’t understand it easily.

In the first place, Liwin should have the ability to rewind time and bring the dead back to life, but does he need the Resurrection Flower?

And she didn’t know what she wanted to save as the flower of resurrection.

‘For now, it’s not me.’

As Elfin said, Liwin had no intention of reviving me.

In that case, my parents who died in the past, or someone else…….

“Liwin wants to revive the Demon King.”

“…… Devil?”

A bottomless, endless demon king.

I couldn’t understand what he was talking about.

The demon king existed a thousand years ago, no, fifteen hundred years ago.

Certainly, even with Liwin’s time magic, it would be difficult to rewind 1,500 years, so I understand why you are looking for the flower of resurrection, but why the devil?

“To be precise, they want to revive the ‘time wizards’ including the demon king.”

“Time Wizard?”

“Yes, I want to call all the time wizards left in history back to this era. Time wizards like Lee Win.”

“Why? Is there a need for multiple Time Wizards?”

I suddenly remembered and turned my head to look at Elfin.

She had the same bitter face as Justina.

Perhaps realizing that I was looking at her, Elfin removed her heavy lips and opened her mouth.

“I’ll say it now, but all three of us had the same desire to see Master again.”

“But obviously Li Yun has no intention of reviving me… ….”

“Yes, I had no intention of reviving it. But Li Yun also wanted to see Master again, just like us. The only difference was the way they did it.”

“What do you mean?”

Elfin arranged the letters clearly in an emotionless tone.

“Justina wants only her master’s soul to return, so she waited endlessly for her reincarnation. On the other hand, I searched for the flower of resurrection, hoping that not only Master’s soul would return, but also his body and face.”

“…… What about Liwin?”

“Li Yun is longing for the past.”

I had no choice but to listen to Elfin in a daze.

“I want to go back to the days when I was with Master.”

It was only then that I felt like the puzzle was being put together.

Lewin, Justina, and Elfin all wanted to see me again.

However, the methods and means of the three were slightly different.

A dragon with an infinite lifespan, Justina chose to wait indefinitely.

On the other hand, since elves had a shorter lifespan, she looked for ways to revive me.

Last time wizard, Liwin…….

“I want to rewind the time of the world, to the days when all four of us were living together in a mountain cabin.”

I turned to Justina, who opened her mouth again.

“…… Liwin’s time magic?”

“Yes. It is impossible for a single Time Wizard to rewind the time of not just one individual, but the entire world.”

“So, by reviving all the time wizards of the past, everyone is going to do something ridiculous… You mean that?”

Elfin and Justina both nodded silently.

It was Justina who cautiously opened her mouth first and looked at me.

“Of course, if Li Yun’s plan succeeds, all the balance and laws of the world will be disrupted.”

My head was pounding, but I still had the biggest doubt.

“…… Honestly, I’m not sure. The balance of the world, the law… Wouldn’t it be great to just go back to the past?”

“Because it’s a special event, Bonnyeo and Elfin are desperately trying to stop it, Deneb.”

Justina sighed and took my hand.

“Li Yun is not simply dreaming of returning to that time.”

“Then?”

A small, warm hand wrapped around my rough hand, unbecoming of a noble boy.

“It’s about repeating the 10 years we spent together forever.”

“…… Forever?”

“Yes, it is to make the world into a miniature garden, and in it to repeat the 10 years of Li Yun’s happiest life without cease.”

I felt like I had been hit in the head with a hammer.

You want to repeat those 10 years in your lifetime? Forever?

If you don’t die and grow old, going back to 10 years ago, all the time?

“…… Nonsense. Liwin, it can’t be.”

“But it is true, Deneb.”

Justina looked at me with her wet eyes against her parched lips.

“If that happens, this school will disappear. The destruction of Delin you accomplished will be in vain. Is that all? Deneb, your family and friends will not be able to be born. It becomes something that never existed in the first place.”

“Justina is right. Her master and we will repeat those 10 years indefinitely, ignoring anything and catering to Li Yun’s taste.”

“So, do you understand now? Lee Win… Leewin is dangerous, Dane.”

Justina appealed by calling me by the name of my previous life.

“So, please don’t leave the academy. Not only Leewin, but also the last king of Delin… There are too many dangerous enemies in the world. Stay safe by my side forever, please…….”

I was confused.

I don’t know how to answer.

It was still difficult to accept.

It was hard to believe that Li Yun, who still remained as a gentle and kind child in my memory, was moving towards such a goal.

“Wait a minute, Justina. That’s not it.”

But in the midst of that, Elfin didn’t stay still either.

Elfin jumped off the bed and came closer and hugged me.

“I agree that Li Yun is dangerous, but it is not.”

“…… Elfin?”

“We must find the Flower of Resurrection ahead of Liwin! And in case you don’t know When Li Yun sees the face of her former teacher, she may feel weak and give up!”

Justina tells her not to go out because the last king and Liwin are dangerous.

On the other hand, Elfin appeals to take the lead in stopping Liwin’s plans.

Even Liwin, who is not here, wants to go back in time to the past and repeat those happy days forever.

“Look at me, tell me what to do…….”

I pulled my hair and closed my eyes tightly.
