Record of a Thousand Lives

Kang Yoon-soo walked ahead.

He leapt lightly over the tangled, tangled tree roots of a rough rock.

But I thought of something other than walking.

‘Your life is the last thousand times. He said no more regrets. ’

Is that true?

I didn't even have to question it.

The Doppelgängers that were not in the original mountains suddenly appeared, and the Doppelgänger of the Empress even knew she had returned.

Could this be what the whisperer was referring to?

However, it was clear that a new change had occurred in a life that had never been repeated.

There is a turbulent storm in my head.

I've done everything I could for hundreds of regressions.

I fought enough to forget the pain of picking up the sword, endured the pain of turning myself into a puppet, and memorized it in a foreign language.

For more than 20,000 years, he became transcendent.

has reached the pinnacle of all disciplines.

To finish the iteration again, I tried to kill the emperor.

To save everything that was precious, to save the world.

On the other hand, I couldn't deny that I felt uncomfortable.

If this fails, there will be another life.

‘The emperor was getting weaker as I regretted. So I was even more unemployed. ’

But if there's no more regression.

The refuge to escape is lost.

‘If this really is the last life... …. ’

“Hey, Kang Yoon-soo? ”

Shanette asks in a tired voice behind her.

Kang Yoon-soo realized that she had traveled much farther than she had intended.

In the Gorn soil, there were abundant bouquet flowers with buds.

He said.

“Let's rest.”

“I would have said that a long time ago. ”

Henryk lies facedown on the ground.

It was worth it since I came down the mountain path without rest from last night.

Shanette squats on the floor, rubbing her aching legs.

Meanwhile, Kang Yoon-soo approached the Doppelgänger.

“Tell me.”

The woman nods softly.

Shanette looks at them with questionable eyes, but does not say anything.

Kang Yoon-soo said as soon as it was too far away from the two of them.

“Who is in you. Did you say white shadow? How long has it been in you? ”

“The white shadow has mingled with my body since I was born. ”

“Do you know what it is? ”

“I don't know. His presence is silent. ”

Kang Yoon-soo then asked.

“The white shadow within you whispers when and how much? ”

“Usually there are no words. He's as lonely as a loner in one corner. He wouldn't answer if I talked to him. ”

“Why do you call it the White Shadow? ”

“Because it feels like it shouldn't exist in this world. ”

Kang Yoon-soo couldn't understand what she was saying.

The Doppelgänger looked at Kang Yun-su with a heartfelt look.

“But when I saw you, it was different. I didn't speak first, but I spoke first. The White Shadow seems to be interested in you. ”

“How about now? ”

“Stay quiet. ”

“How can I believe that I can no longer return? ”

“The White Shadow knows you well. We all know that you've lived thousands of lives, the life of a great alchemist, the life of a monster monarch, and many others. ”

One who has not experienced it during the repetitive regression knows himself.

Confidence arose in the fact that it could no longer be regressed.

I didn't want to be with her in this life.

However, it was the white shadow in the doppelganger that made a new change in life that was repeated.

That is why we must be together.

Kang Yoon-soo firmly resolved.

“From now on, you're coming with me. Instead, if you tell me anything about its existence, let me know. ”

“Why should I? ”

“Well."

“Why I have to go with you. ”

I remember being asked the same question one day. At that time, he replied:

“If you come with me, I'll give you a name. ”

The princess had a curious look on her face.

“My name? I'm a doppelganger. There's no such thing. ”

“I will let you find yourself, not the princess. ”

She looked at Kang Yoon-soo with strange beautiful eyes.

“I am an unnamed monster. You'd give me a name like that? ”

“Huh."

Kang Yoon-soo nodded.

“If you name it, what will it be? ”

He looks around and points to the bouquet of flowers on the other side.

“Iris. ”

It was the Western name of the caldron.

I also remembered the flower horse in the flower.

‘Good news. ’

…… really?

* * *

“You're doing great. You're gonna name a doppelganger, and then you're gonna hang out with him? Do you have a death wish for the Knights? ”

Henryk grumbles with an absurd expression.

However, Kang Yoon-soo shook his head.

“I need Iris' help to finish the legendary quest. ”

In fact, even without Iris, the quest can go on with as many Legendary as possible.

It was a quest I've been doing so much already.

But I needed an excuse to be with Iris.

Shanette bites with her sharp eyes.

“You didn't just make that up because you wanted to hang out with him, did you? ”

“No.”

Shanette is surprisingly sharp.

“Why is your Doppelgänger in a place like this? ”

“My intention is to assassinate the princess. ”

The great Iris said something shocking.

Henryk and Shanette look embarrassed at each other.

The Leonardo Empire.

Assassinate the empire's empress who rules the continent?

Iris breaks the trunk of a wildflower blooming in the dirt.

Then I began to lick the flower's surgery with a tongue full of saliva.

Henrik asked for a reference to the strange and oddly seductive behavior.

“Assassination of a princess? What the hell does that mean? ”

“There are people in the imperial court who want to assassinate the Empress. They ran experiments on doppelgangers. Hundreds of doppelgangers were killed, and a variant was born. It's me, the Doppelgänger. It's all the same to the Empress. It can't change the body. ”

Henryk's expression was unbelievable.

Shanette also asked.

“Why did you make a Doppelgänger of the Empress? ”

“To kill and replace the princess. No one will notice the Empress's death. ”

Iris licked the surgery and swallowed the petals in her mouth.

Henryk expressions his excitement and he can't say a word.

Instead, Shanette asked.

“How did such a doppelganger get here? ”

“I've learned a lot. Ceremony and behavior of the princess. Precautions never to be seen. But I was frustrated. I wanted to know myself. So he escaped from where he was keeping me. By exerting my powers they didn't even know existed. ”

Iris picked another wild flower.

This time, I picked up the petals and threw them away, just like a candy stick.

“I ran away, but they chased me. Closing up the big roads, bringing in people with swords. ”

“A big road? You mean Siniland Trade Route? ”

Iris nods.

“Those who tried to catch me don't deserve me to hide among the people. ”

Shanette and Henryk stare at each other frantically.

That trade route was closed to catch one of these doppelgangers?

Henryk scratches his nervously frizzy head.

“This is madness. We have tampered with imperial secrets. This is really dangerous. If we can capture the Doppelgänger and run experiments and keep it a secret, it's not usually associated with high power. Who was the one who tested you? ”

“I don't know. They've always blindfolded me and experimented. ”

Shanette said depressingly.

“How did it become such a dangerous journey to be involved with imperial secrets? ”

Henryk gritted his teeth and swallowed his tears.

“Dammit! Not enough undead castles, getting involved with imperial secrets in the remote mountains. At least you won't be surprised what happens next. ”

“The bear will attack. ”

“What, man? ”

Kang Yoon-soo drew his sword.

The location was different, but it was clear now when I postponed it with my previous experience.

“The bear will attack. ”

Henrik and Shanette followed Kang Yoon-soo's gaze to the other side.

The shadows of the beasts roam through the forest.

Black bear in the Hatar Mountains.

The forefoot and thick leather that looked fiercer than the beast were frightened to look at the outside.

If anything, it was the Black Bear's habitat around here.

The black bears grunt ferociously looking this way.

“Khuru Woo Woo -!”

One of the biggest black bears rushes in violently.

Kang Yoon-soo ran up against him and swung his sword.

During the battle, he has another thought in his mind.

If this is the last time.

If it's really the last time.

“Abyssal Slash. ”

When the skill is activated, the blade is covered in dark blue light.

Kang Yoon-soo put a razor blade into the black bear's neck.

Screech-!

“Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

The sword of the Undead shattered the life force of the Black Bear.

A critical hit erupts and the blood bursts like fountains.

It seemed like a lot of blood was swallowing Kang Yoon-soo.

‘Everything has to change. I have to use all my experience so far. ’

He resolved to come to his senses.

‘I give up my uncomfortable mind. Even if you get hurt and risk your life, you will grow higher. ’

I changed my mind. The feeling of indifference had been broken gradually.

The rope of blood stands blurry in the hand of the sword.

Kang Yoon-soo aimed his sword at another black bear.

Fierce.

Much more intense than it is now.

This is the only way to kill the Magpie.

Kang Yoon-soo's indifferent eyes began to blur with a faint determination.

Future schedules will vary.

Starting tonight.
