At the end of the war with K'Tulu, it was always a vain end. Time was not on his side. Xi Hyun was also unable to make time on his side. Erased memory, time to go back. In many attempts, it has always come to an end that Hyun has failed.

Time ran out. Unchanged form, same end. The untimely demonstration of time returned six years ago.

"?!"

As a flash of light appeared in the white heat sphere, he suddenly woke up. Without noticing the change, he climbed onto the rail-future - as ever prepared. And I ran like hell. He didn't even know where he was, and in an infinitely circulating nightmare, he became a temporary protagonist.

Until he met K'Tulu, his life was a whirlwind like sailing. But at the same time K'Tulu awoke from his resting place, it was all over. That was the end of the future of Shi Hyun who could not move forward. It was only a chance to challenge those who could not withstand the proposition that penetrated the universe.

The stool doesn't suddenly come close. As always, I was just showing off gradually. The future was coming for him who did not give up.

As my clothes got wet in the crotch, the fainter memories began to form over and over again. What you've done in the past, what you're doing now, and what you're going to do. The memories that had been asleep so far repeatedly reminded me and disappeared.

Sihyun was intrigued by the strangeness surrounding him. A sign, a sign, a sign. A strange sensation that can't be expressed in any words. As a vague memory reveals itself one by one, she shudders to find her precious record-memory at the end of Heman 1,245,312 times.

"Ah."

[Remember.]

Finally, she woke up in a long dream. And I could recognize who was calling to me. It wasn't a miracle or a coincidence. Everything was a result of his efforts and patience. The fragments left behind by fate were rooted in Gear Nose's head.

[Remember.]

An octopus mixed with a dragon. The green body, composed of sharp wings and elastic projections, was both bizarre and bizarre. The six eyes, arranged in triangles, on each side and on the other, emitted an overwhelming presence in golden light.

I did not know it before, but now I can clearly see the situation I am in.

"I remember, K'Tanid..."

At his words, K'Tanid opened his tentacle's rattling mouth.

"At last I see. Good, 'cause that means my deal worked right."

K'Tanid's appearance resembles K'Tulu's, but his energy is mild. Listening to K'Tanid's voice gave me the courage to challenge him at any time.

But that was also only for a moment. After looking at the situation calmly, he had to tremble. It seems strange that K'Tanid, who calls himself intimately.

"How do you know me?"

It was not long before K'Tulu awoke that he learned of the existence of K'Tae-nid. In other words, it was a time when Xihyun and K'Tanid had not met.

"It's a natural story. K'Tulu has the power to manipulate time. There's no reason I shouldn't be intimate with time when I'm away from his body."

I didn't have to listen to it. The power of time, I see. If K'Tanid, derived from K'Tulu, can't pass the time, that's funny.

"Why didn't you tell me this in the first place?"

If I spoke directly without ambiguity, I would have resisted K'Tulu more effectively. K'Tanid shakes his head when he hears that. If I had spoken at the table, I wouldn't have met him like this because he knew best.

"It has to be self-determination to make sense. The opening walls of K'Tulu are special enough to distinguish themselves from the great old beings, but they bear great burdens. That's not absolute for someone you've already noticed. If I had told you the secret of K'Tulu from the beginning, you would never have broken this cycle."

"That's why you leaked the clue."

It was then that Shi Hyun could see whether K'Tanid had not answered his question. Once he was convinced of his suspicion, he could not have escaped K'Tulu's grasp. It was the best K'Tanid could do, despite the words, 'K'Tulu is turning back the clock.' He cleared his mind and frowned.

"Wait..."

Sihyun's insides fluttered. I liked that K'Tanid was able to contact himself back in time. However, the problem was that the process was repeated 1,245,312 times. He couldn't have seen the designation of the past. Although Nordens did not notice because he saw it shortly, Chu and Alto, who observed it constantly, noticed that he could go back in time.

He lacked time-related abilities, so K'Tanid, who had watched over him several times, could not have known about the past designations. It was foolish of K'Tanid to insist that he hadn't noticed the secret.

"Did you see that, too?"

"Going back in time, changing the future? I have to admit, it was an amazing sight. I've never seen a future confirmed that way."

When the secret is revealed to the target walking the same path as Norden, Xi Hyun quickly corrects his posture. We didn't know what he was going to do.

"Don't be so vigilant. I don't want to tell anyone anyway."

"How can I believe that?"

"I wouldn't even call you that if I wanted to. You got rid of it right away, didn't you?"

I couldn't believe it. It could be a trap, but a trap like this could only have an adverse effect. It's extremely inefficient. If you think about it, K'Tanid has been particularly favorable since we first met. He was so low that he forgot that he was a great old being. Moreover, he also doubted the fact that he made a deal with Alto.

"What the hell is the point?"

"Rather, the act of repaying 'grace.'"

"Excuse me?"

He tilted his head unknowingly. It was an unknown excuse. He never reached out to K'Tanid for help. It wasn't even high enough for Xi Hyun in the early days to help K'Tanid. The question became deeper because it had been less than a month since we met. No matter how much I thought about it, there was no answer.

"You don't have to know 'you' now. All you have to do is remember that this happened. This isn't the time to be slowing down here in the first place. Or will you spend the day staring at my mouth that won't open?"

"Who is this grace for?"

"... Go. It's not about me. It's about your future."

It was a clear blessing, but there was nothing she could do. I remained curious, but I had to ignore it. He awakens from his slumber, receiving a golden key from K'Tanid.

Tiri, Tiri, Tiri. Shi Hyun, who stood up as a background sound for the ringtones that dug his ears, looked at the calendar: September 27, 2021. About a year before K'Tulu woke up. There was enough time. There were many opportunities to challenge. All that was left was to achieve the goal.

The Pleiades was one of the scattered clusters in the bull. There were dozens and hundreds of irregular stars spread out, filled with light. The stars were floating like the sea.

The Pleades Conservatory had seven sisters, leading by Atlas and Pleione. Alcyone, Electra, Maia, Merope, Taygeta, Asterope. And Celaeno. Sihyun went to Keraeno.

Where even the secrets of the gods lie. Sehyun regained his memory and roamed the universe for a year. I was worried about the people on Earth, but he shook his head and got rid of his thoughts. To defeat K'Tulu, we needed wisdom there.

The road was hard. There couldn't have been a map in the universe. There was nothing to call milestones. I was just being drawn to the truth by instinct and vague light.

Maybe it's because they expanded their transcendent form while exposing the collapse of their bodies. Even the speed of light was transcendent. Though it was not easy to think about the power and ability of the whole body because of the focus on speed, he was patient. It was a close opportunity. I didn't want to miss it.

'It's not far.'

The light from Keraeno is getting brighter. Sihyun, who has Keraeno in his eyes, smiles faintly. At the end of the Feast of Weeks, he was finally able to reach the place he wanted.

However, he had to stop in front of Keraeno. I noticed an unexpected person's energy in an unexpected place. The wind stopped, the atmosphere was tense. And part of the room was crushed. Everything is vibrating dynamically.

The one who appeared with the interstellar wind was wearing a mask of jewelry and gold. However, unlike the mask that showed the extreme splendor, the garment was only a pair of plain yellow robes. It was an outfit that was not too ugly to be called a rag. Moreover, the maggots and tentacles crowded together and their elongated writhing hands added to their ugly clothes.

In the appearance of the Unspeakable, Shi Hyun frowned. It was an unscheduled meeting.

"That face in front of me. You're impure. You have to die once before you lose your mind."

Haster still felt the pressure, but he didn't mind. Just because he showed up doesn't make sense to stop here.

"Why are you here?"

"Right door. All bulls are my territory. Why are you really here? Are you running away?"

"Running away, is that all you get out of your head for? Get out of the way. You have nothing to see."

"Looks like you haven't found your brother yet."

"Of course you do."

Haster looked where his gaze was, and he burst into elasticity. It was a place he knew well. I couldn't have known. It was his favorite place.

"Oh, you're going to Keraeno. You have a fancy hobby of going there. But there's nothing you can get out of it. What are we doing there?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

"No way. I told you, the bull is my territory. Of course, that star is also my private property. If you don't have my permission..."

Harster looked at the golden key that he had. One day, when a pass appeared in front of his eyes that he had scattered all over the universe, he had no choice but to disappear.

"No, you're not. You came prepared."

Harster could not ask if he wanted to. It is because the person who brought the Golden Key has promised to open Keraeno for any reason. I could have broken my promise, but my pride wouldn't allow it.
