Regression Is Too Much

Chapter 27

27 – Boss too weak (7)

Humans.

I’m sure you’re wondering why I did this.

To be honest, I liked humans quite a bit.

Even though they are of different species, humans were the first to be treated as one individual.

But I hate humans.

Humans seem to believe me, but I lied to them. Did that too many times.

I told the humans that the young goblins who were playing hide and seek in the labyrinth unsealed the monster.

That was a lie.

The humans who had been digging through the ancient labyrinth in search of treasure have unsealed the monster.

In the past, I was strong enough to successfully seal a single monster.

There were two monsters. While I was sealing one, our clan was destroyed.

Our family had fled to the island to avoid being hunted by humans.

It was an island that escaped from humans, but everyone died because of humans.

Human.

The moment I was about to kill myself in despair, I heard a voice of great will.

He said he would give me a chance to avenge the humans.

Human.

I already knew that this place was a space called ‘The Tower’.

I knew that my life was given only 7 days each time.

I knew that after all the humans died or escaped, they would come back to life with their memories erased.

I knew that gold was precious to humans.

I knew that when I died, a means for humans to survive would be summoned.

Human.

Actually, there is no need for gold in the shamanic ritual.

Human.

As soon as I came to my senses, I knew that if I unsealed the monster, I could kill more humans.

But even if I die and come back to life, I will keep the seal until the end and help humans.

The reason I do my best to help humans is simple.

I want humans to struggle with hope.

It’s good to be brutally defeated by a monster, but I want you to feel the greatest happiness after defeating a monster.

I know that the worst despair that comes after the greatest happiness is more painful.

I wanted humans to feel the same way my clan felt.

Human.

Because of his affinity for humans, there was a time when he hesitated for a while about letting humans fall into the abyss.

However, I think I mentioned that my sense of smell is sensitive.

From noble mtl dot com

Human.

In the human body… The smell of the blood of his own people vibrates.

Actually, I don’t really care if my people die or not.

My people are already chained to the tower. I’ve been called to die over and over again.

I know that humans have killed their own people in order to survive.

But in the end… I thought that humans are also part of humans.

Humans.

I hope that the mood of humans will be the same as I was in the past when I decided to die.

Human.

I’m sorry.

The goblin shaman’s voice came to an end from the broken stones.

I am sitting in the clearing where it all began.

The shaman’s voice ended in the evening, but I was still staring blankly at the fragments of the stone.

“It’s okay.”

I got hit because I was careless, but this is just a passing process after all.

“You just have to return.”

In the next round, I just need to hit the ball.

I’ll never have to get shot by that guy again.

“Let’s get mental.”

It was only twisted at the end.

In fact, the value obtained from this episode is indescribable.

Huge amount of Achievement Level EXP. A growing attribute grade. Even tricks related to the Minotaur and Goblin Shaman.

It’s just that the ending was bad, but in terms of performance, I gained more than any other episode.

If you can get duplicate emotions from the same person after regression, just repeating similarly this round can make you incredibly strong.

After 100 repetitions, you should be able to kill a minotaur with your toes.

It’s okay.

“f*ck… “

It’s not okay.

It feels like I was hit directly by a blow from a fruit that shakes my mentality.

Goblin Shaman’s last words of ‘I’m sorry’ keep ringing in my head.

Failed. Defeated.

This also… I thought it was God’s intention.

Her main body is an infinitely weak goblin shaman.

It may be human nature to help without any doubt when a weak and dying guy earnestly asks for help.

But he is a goblin. Being weak doesn’t mean being good.

What’s inside the Goblin Shaman… It was full of malice towards humans.

It was even more disgusting that I liked him.

… I also liked the goblin shaman quite a bit.

“Shall we return?”

The group of survivors has already become a mess.

After accepting the situation, everyone was like a ticking time bomb about to explode.

Hope brought people together, but despair divided them.

The large-scale physical fight that started over whether there was a golden bead hidden inside the body barely ended after Park Cheol-jin intervened.

After that, everyone disbanded on their own. He didn’t forget to stare at me when he left.

The transition from being a hero to being a traitor was literally an instant.

Firefighter Park Cheol-jin comforted me and said, ‘It’s not your fault,’ but his eyes were also quite empty.

Actually, it’s a strange situation that my mentality is fine.

Lost 22 golden orbs in one moment.

The portal that was meant to save everyone was created in the poison swamp.

Hopes of advancing to the next floor were shattered.

Of course we are still alive.

But… How long can you stay alive?

If you kill a goblin, it will give you food.

The number of goblins is not infinite.

One day on this island, the goblin seeds will dry up, and then we all have nothing but a future where we all starve to death.

“… No answer.”

No matter how much I think about it, there is no answer. This episode was ruined.

The moment I raised my fist and was about to hit the chest.

“Here you are.”

Jeopardy. That buck Familiar footsteps and familiar voices.

“Why are you in a quandary here?”

It was Choi Ji-won.

Choi Ji-won looked quite calm for a person who was scheduled to die soon.

“… What are you doing here? Food will become scarce from now on.”

I didn’t like the way he looked, so I just blurted it out.

“… Food? Ah. You’ve been here the whole time.”

Choi Ji-won shook his head.

“I committed suicide.”

“… Uh?”

“Goblins. They all committed suicide by drowning in a swamp. Perhaps a goblin shaman had a hand in her. You seem to have the ability to manipulate other goblins.”

“… “

The Goblin Shaman seems to have even known that you can get food and golden beads by killing other goblins.

You’re messing with us thoroughly.

Bravo. Nice shaman

“… “

Neither Jiwon Choi nor I said anything.

As I said before, I just need to regress.

I won’t make the same mistake. Because I wasn’t an idiot repeating the mistakes I made.

But… After I return, what will happen to this world? I thought.

It would be great if you could come back with me. Because it’s going to happen

But if… What if only I could return, and this world would remain as it is?

The people of this world line starve to death in terrible despair.

Because of my misjudgment.

‘This world? My tendons were not thick enough to pass it off with an alpano?

Is this the weight that a regressor must carry?

I think I can understand a little why Death Returners who have accumulated more than 10 rounds go crazy.

It’s better not to go crazy when you think you’re carrying not just this tutorial, but the lives of people all over the world on your back.

“Choi Ji-won.”

“Huh?”

Maybe that’s why?

I felt a strong urge to tell my story to someone.

“I am a regressor.”

“… A regressor?”

“I am not just a regressor. A f*cking lame sunfish regressor who regresses after one hit.”

Whether she heard it or not, she poured out the story that was in my memory without hesitation.

The story of waking up in the tower for the first time.

A story about returning after being cut by grass.

A story about returning because of a goblin hiding in the bush.

The story of learning the sword from Choi Ji-won, repeating the regression.

The story of being misunderstood as a pervert by Choi Ji-won and getting beaten up.

A story that derives its characteristics from the emotions of others.

And finally, the story that arrived at this episode.

After telling everything, I felt relieved.

“… Under. Sorry.”

However, the cool inside was also short-lived, and the rich sage time came.

With common sense, you can’t believe a story like this.

What? Regressor? Will it come back even if it hits just one?

It would be more persuasive to say that he went crazy from the stress of dying soon.

Even if you cut me with a knife right now, I have nothing to say.

But Choi Ji-won just nodded his head slightly.

“I believe.”

I could tell by hearing the voice. She sincerely believes in me.

“… Why?”

If it were me, I wouldn’t have believed it.

I couldn’t understand why she believed me.

But without answering, she lightly stroked my sword that was scattered on the floor.

“Your swordsmanship. I thought it made no sense.”

“… Fence?”

“I’ve only wielded a sword my entire life. What, you have a characteristic? There’s no way I can’t recognize the swordsmanship I’ve learned all my life, right?”

“… hahahaha.”

In the past, I used to say that I was in the kendo club, but I was caught and returned because of swordsmanship.

Now, my swordsmanship is proof that Choi Ji-won believes in her return.

“Come on. Wake up.”

Choi Ji-Won got up from his seat, brushed off his pants, and grabbed my hand as I was squatting.

“… Where are you going?”

“If you go, you will know. Right next door.”

As she said, the place we arrived was quite close and familiar.

The place where Choi Ji-won wielded his sword whenever he returned.

In this episode, Choi Ji-won and I were in the corner of the empty lot practicing swordsmanship together.

“Grab the sword.”

Choi Ji-won speaks calmly.
