Perhaps a special space different from this world.
In your head, there is a voice that neither man nor woman can speak to.
"Nice to finally meet you." Gladys Langley "
The dragon has spoken to me in a faint, emotionless tone.
Without even a slight movement, I looked down at my face with my dark red eyes in a high place.
Even though it's so huge, I don't feel anything. The more you meditate, the less you even know where you are. It's about to melt into space and disappear.
There is no fear. Rather, I remember nostalgia.
Someone had an immediate instinct. A dragon that is sealed in our Langley Canyon, northeast of Mount Cassandra, the spiritual peak. It was resealed 300 years ago by the Second Great Prophet Demetria.
"That's not true. I'm not sealed."
Reading my thoughts, the dragon denies it.
"This is a sacred place where the time has come to a halt, building up spiritual power for about every 300 years. And when the time comes, I support people in their battles. Last time, I supported you, who was a demetrist. History twists and turns over the years as enemy forces manipulate information. As if I had been a hostile."
--It was demetria, you....
"Who are you?
I asked with a trembling voice.
"Same as you. A transcendent person who governs this world - a person who has been given a role in the existence of" God "in terms of the concept of man. One of those tasked with protecting the world from alien 'intruders'. You are the 'Enforcer'. I am the Supporter. I provide various support from this place so that people can protect the world. My role in normal times is to conceal information, disturb it, and spread spiritual power to suppress distraction."
One word at a time, your memory and heart are soaking in. Not that Mount Cassandra has spiritual power, but that this dragon is the source of spiritual power?
It turns out that everything is true. No, do you remember the memory that sinks into the bottom of your soul?
"'The Enforcer'? - What's my role?
"Overall, the strongest being in this world is man. Therefore, God has a role to play in preventing the invasion of alien invaders. A lot of people, big and small, are responsible for their mission. From among them, an 'Enforcer' was erected at a point where gates of the other realm could be opened. The most powerful and deeply engraved human being in his soul is the 'Enforcer' - that is, you. As a supporter, I've been watching over your soul and supporting you for generations. It is also my role to give information. I won't die, but people repeat the rebirth."
That's ten times the answer to a single question. Thank you, but I'm confused.
Yeah, but there was an answer to my biggest concern.
"--After all, I was originally in this world. Have you been reborn in this world all this time?
"Everyone's soul is. However, you carry the heaviest role, and your soul is bound to this land. It was bound to be reborn into a specific lineage in this land at a time of great variation, and memory was to be born with strength. The accumulation of knowledge and experience was supposed to favour the fight."
"Past shape? I don't have any memories of demetria or galatea."
One thing is the memory of the great prophet Zachariah and the Japanese college students.
"There were endless trials and mistakes during the long offensive and defense that persisted so far away. The human soul, which inherited the memory, was so exhausted that it often interfered with the execution of its role."
I know what that means. I had just one or two memories of my previous life, and I was closing my mind and twisting it. It's an unimaginable fear to inherit and stack generations of memories.
"So I tried to use the gates of the other world the other way around. The gate is connected not only to the invader's world, but also to other worlds."
"― ― That means where and when I, Troy and Yuka were ― connected to my town in Japan in that era……?
"That's right. It was found that when born in a different world without a mission, both memory and power are reset. Let the soul of the" Enforcer "escape there, and live life as a mere human being, healing the soul. And when the time has come to invade again, I will return to this world and be reborn to fulfill my mission. The accumulation of memories is accommodated by the previous life as a Japanese. By gradually creating such a mechanism, the" executors "were able to achieve more strength with knowledge of other worlds."
"But now I have two memories of my previous life."
"--Maybe it's because of too many irregular events. I didn't remember anything from my previous life in Japan."
The dragon that has answered so clearly turns into something that seems uncertain.
"Originally, I was supposed to live to the age of seventy as a normal Japanese and complete my life. Deaths from lightning strikes are completely unexpected. With the spirit of old age, it is easy to accept a new life, but your soul is still young and has returned to this world fifty years earlier than planned, with an immature spirit left untouched. This led to the existence of a spiritually unstable Zachariah. He lived the rest of his life as Zachariah and was reincarnated into his powerful lineage, the Duke... Or maybe his death in a lightning strike was a 'dispenser of heaven'. Even Zachariah, who was under constant heavy guard, was unnaturally left alone at the end of the day, perhaps. - In a long history, when things stick together, there are rare times when I feel something beyond intervention."
So Zachariah's existence was irregular...? Was there any role in that?
What have I done in Zachariah's life?
The dragon kept explaining my questions afterwards.
According to this, the gates of the other realm are very fragile and usually only pass through weak monsters. The usual monsters that are spreading in this world.
However, there is a time when the connection between the other world and this world becomes stronger in about 300 years. At that time, it is the human role of the intruder to further strengthen the gate and seek to enter the world, and to stop it.
It is my role to take that rudder, to be the eyes, the mind, and the flag of man.
Fulfilling its mission, it eventually sends the soul of the "Enforcer", who has finished his life, through the gate, into another world connected by chance. The soul alone can dive through the gap between the gates and reach them without being caught by anything in the other world.
The other world behind the gate - beyond the dimension of the intruder. That's where I lived the first time, Japan.
However, because my soul keeps coming and going, from time to time local souls get involved and come back to the world after my trajectory. And is the quality of the soul different, or is there a low probability of remembering the previous life here?
In other words, is it entirely my fault that Troy and other Japanese have reborn into this world?
I want to hold my head, but that's what I can't do. Even though I'm being manipulated by more magnificent fate than I thought.
The description of the dragon lasted a long time afterwards.
