200 – Wings of the Sky

“What…?”

Kang Ha-neul, who had been staring blankly at the system message that appeared before his eyes, opens his mouth in a trembling voice.

“Jus… Tia?”

“…Oh, I guess I saw it.”

Then, Lumia opens her mouth with a calm expression.

“That… What are you talking about?”

“…There are more important things to do than that right now, right?”

She responded with a distinctly different tone of voice, clenching her fists as she looked at the monster wriggling before her eyes.

– It’s hard to crack…!

And the next moment.

“Sigh.”

– Kugwagwagwagwagwa…!!!

A terrifying explosion of drinking pouring into the room.

“Queeek!”

When the impact fired from Lumia’s gauntlet hits the monster squarely, it lets out a horrifying scream and recoils.

“Wow…”

However, the blow was so strong that it inflicted much more damage than the damage Ariel had inflicted over 100 repetitions, so of course it was bound to have an effect on Lumia as well.

– Shake it off…

She vomited blood from her mouth and collapsed in her seat.

“Ha, ha…”

Of course, the wounds from last time had not yet completely healed, so her appearance was not at all surprising.

“The old days were good… I could use it without much effort back then…”

Nevertheless, the smile on her face did not disappear, and she quietly raised her tattered hands.

[Strike LV MAX]

[Price: 1/100 of life]

“This guy is still a salty idiot…”

And then, she acquires skills quite familiarly, just like Kang Haneul did.

“Wait a minute…”

“Sigh.”

Her river Sky stretched out her hand towards her, but she forced herself to get up again and leaped towards the monster she was staggering around.

– Pubububung…!

Soon, repeated strikes of a frightening level continue.

– Kwasik…!

“…….”

Even though her monster’s strike pierced her shoulder midway through, Lumia continued her attack without a single scream.

“Stop it!!!”

Ariel, unable to see what she was like, rushed out and hugged her.

“…I’m fine.”

But even though her entire body was in tatters, Rumia still muttered in a calm voice.

“That guy is still okay.”

“Ugh… Ugh…”

As he said, despite suffering significant damage, the monster only staggered, still glaring at Lumia with bloodshot eyes.

“So…”

– Pajijik…

“Let me keep fighting…”

Lumia, who was glaring coldly at the monster, muttered as she walked forward.

“Let’s go…”

At the sound of her crying voice coming from behind her, she paused for a moment and stopped her steps.

“Twice… I said I don’t want to do it twice…”

Ariel’s story followed her, but it was Lumia who walked her steps with her complex smile on her face.

“…I’m sorry.”

.

.

.

.

.

How much time has passed?

“Grrr…”

The monster, which had tenaciously withstood the attack, eventually falls to its knees on the ground, foaming at the mouth.

– Shake it off…

Soon, the guy lowers his head and becomes silent.

“Ugh…”

Rumia, who was standing in front of that guy with her entire body covered in blood and blood dripping from her fists, soon lost her balance and fell down.

“Hey!!!”

Just before she reached the bottom, her river Sky, which had completely destroyed her, although not as much as Lumia, blew away her body and held her in her arms.

“Come to your senses!!!”

“Wow… It’s heaven.”

She then made a blank expression for a moment, but when she saw her face in the pure white river sky, she fainted.

“What on earth… What happened…?”

“I’m fine… Starting with those kids…”

“What happened…!!!”

As she was attacked by her monster while doing her joint attack, she muttered, pointing to Ariel lying unconscious in the distance and the concept of her death, but her river sky gaze I was still obsessed with her.

“Why can you use the system, and the name of Justia is displayed in the system?”

“……..”

“No matter how much you think about it, it’s strange…!”

As he raised her voice in a trembling voice, Lumia’s complexion darkened slightly.

“…It’s only been a few days since my memories came back.”

“What?”

“I don’t know where to start…”

And then, with her awkward eyes, she looks at the sky over her river and opens her mouth.

“But… One thing is certain…”

But her consciousness was already becoming hazy due to excessive bleeding and overuse of skills.

“I…”

“Lumia!!!!”

Before she could finish her sentence, she began to look at herself with tearful eyes. She touched Kang Haneul’s cheek with her bloody hand and closed her eyes.

‘…That’s not my name.’

I was thinking like that in my mind.

‘Why don’t you remember…’

.

.

.

.

.

Recently, when she suddenly felt like her head was going to explode, she thought her inner Lumia had begun her final struggle.

But, that wasn’t it.

She didn’t have time or money to go to the hospital, so she spent time holding it in, and memories that had disappeared began to come back.

The first thing that came to mind was, yes. It was a scene where Kang Ha-neul hugged me and shed tears.

She was truly strange back then. Because she thought there was no way Kang Haneul would be that kind to a guy like me.

However, as time passed and her memories became clearer, she began to realize the reason.

Because, in my memories, I was not like this.

Yes, he was wearing the red costume that Kang Ha-neul was probably quite familiar with.

Justia. So, Uriel Everleigh’s outfit.

I was a little embarrassed at the time, but only then did I realize it.

The reason why I liked Kang Ha-neul so much.

But as I was about to accept that fact, a question arose.

Because before I was possessed, I was ‘Narae’, not ‘Justia’.

But my throbbing head continued to vividly recall my memories of being Justia.

Isn’t this really strange?

Of course, if I, who lived as Justia, died and was reincarnated as Narae in the 21st century Republic of Korea, and in that state possessed Lumia’s body, this would be explained.

To be honest, when I lived as ‘Narae’, I grew up not being treated as a human being, so my personality may be different from when I was raised as a hero.

But the important thing is why it happened.

No matter how much superpowers and monsters exist in the world, isn’t it too unrealistic to die and be reincarnated in another dimension, and from that dimension to return to the original dimension?

Even though it may seem like an innocuous question to others, I began to feel a compulsion to find the reason for some reason.

However, it was almost impossible for me to determine the cause of such a supernatural phenomenon that was like God’s prank, and thanks to that, my condition was in vain for a while.

It was around this time that I began to doubt whether my memories of ‘Justia’ were real or fake.

Thanks to the infiltration operation, I was given time to gather my thoughts while walking through the hallways of the academy annex with Haneul.

It was only after experiencing another headache, more severe than ever, that I was able to realize my true identity.

In addition, there is also an answer as to why such an unrealistic thing happened to me.

So, what is the answer?

That’s right…

First, open your eyes and let’s talk.

.

.

.

.

.

“…Hmm.”

“Please… Please…”

When I open my eyes again, I see Kang Ha-neul with one hand on my head and the other hand administering rapid treatment to my arm.

“Not twice… As Ariel said… Not twice…”

It is truly pitiful to see him as if he would burst into tears at any moment.

I’m being administered quite expensive recovery medication, which I don’t know where I got it from, but my body can’t hold on any longer.

Ah, thanks to you, I think I can buy some time to finish talking to him.

“Sky… Ah.”

“…..Justia!”

When I opened my mouth with a faint smile thinking about that, he opened his eyes and turned his gaze to me.

Looking at it, it seems like he was able to get a glimpse into my memories of losing consciousness for a while.

In that case, the story will probably be fast.

“I want to ask you something…”

“Don’t talk! We need to focus on treatment now…!”

“…This is a question that must be asked.”

I opened my mouth with that thought, and despite Kang Ha-neul’s strong dissuasion, I began to mutter in a low voice.

“When I was Justia, why did I particularly like Korean food?”

“What?”

“Unlike the original story, why did he show particular interest in you?”

“What is that…”

“Why did I have you in mind from the moment I first saw you?”

Then, Kang Ha-neul’s expression becomes distorted.

“Now is not the time to say things like that…”

“You know what? When I was Narae, my parents didn’t even give me a name… I gave myself the name ‘Narae’…”

However, despite this, I continued to speak steadfastly.

“No, to be exact, it would be correct to say that you built it.”

“…What?”

The time has come to reveal the final hidden secret that made this whole story possible.

“Don’t you remember? You gave me a name when I was dying.”

“What is that…..”

“You also told me that the meaning of Narae is wings…”

When I tell the secret with a trembling heart, Kang Ha-neul’s expression becomes confused.

“Well, I don’t even remember how you always cooked Korean food when we were dating… I’m done talking.”

“Ah…..”

Thanks to you, I feel a little sad, but Haneul has always been like this.

“You… No way…”

“The concept of death… You can’t die even if you die?”

As a vessel containing the concept of death, nothing has changed since I first met him for eternal rest.

“At that time, my body was taken away by you… So my soul could not die and continued to wander around this world and undergo reincarnation.”

“…………”

“But what was so good about it was that I always wanted to see you. Seeing as you were reincarnated only as people who could get close to you…”

Looking at the shock on Haneul’s expression, it seemed like his memory had now completely returned.

“Still, please know this.”

That’s a good thing, but there’s little time now. I feel like my eyes will close soon.

“When I was a vessel containing the concept of death, when I was Justia, when I was a girl in 21st century Korea, and even now…”

So, let’s make sure to say it this time.

“I have always been Narae.”

“…………”

“…Wings of the sky.”

Before I regret it like last time.

“I love you, sky.”
