City Of Witches 109

Chapter 109 – #24_Regression(2)

#107
One.
Siu was immersed in thought in the posture of Rodin’s The Thinker.
Newly acquired knowledge and power.
The process of disassembling and reinterpreting them one by one is more fun than any other play or entertainment.
It was enough to make me completely forget about the headaches that seemed to rupture blood vessels in the brain and the hallucinations felt in the left prosthetic eye, which had no possibility of pain points.

-Slung

Siu, who had been immersed in his own world for a while, raised his head.
He felt a sense of incongruity in the distorted space shaking his son-in-law.

Looking around, the huge old tree of Latifundium was nowhere to be seen.
Neither the magic reflection light that is naturally generated due to the dense magic power in the air, nor the moss that covered the ground like a carpet.

Instead, the synagogue-like space made of polished marble was shining reverently and solemnly without any special lighting with the light pouring through the large stained glass windows.
Siu is sitting on a comfortable sofa in the middle of it.

– Again and again

Someone approached him with the sound of heels.
Siu slowly raised her gaze and looked at her.
His face is blurred and obscured.
Like the light that passed through a prism, it was just scattered around as if it had been painted with colorful colors.

Nevertheless, Siu felt a deep affinity for the person in front of him.
It was because he felt very similar to the fractal trees he had touched and plucked.

Siwoo stood up from his seat.
He strode forward and stood in front of the witch.
He reaches out and grabs his hair and starts sniffing.

“Sniff sniff.”
“It’s fun.”

With a light chuckle, a white hand reached out and held Siwoo under his chin.
It was like handling a puppy.
As if intoxicated by the scent of his soft hands, Siu bit his fingertips lightly.

How good does this woman’s body feel?
How interesting would the knowledge inside this woman’s body be?
Instinct is calling out.

He said that the magic he had eaten so far was very poor compared to that of this witch.
She stood bloodshot in her eyes with excitement like never before.
He grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her as if he were going to prey on her.

“Are you trying to violate the woman’s body as well?”

He had felt it before, but looking at him is like looking at a beast in heat.
Keter was watching everything that happened this day.
Even the image of Siwoo fighting with one of her exiles and the image of her stealing her magic by violating her afterward.
It was an interesting sight that made the boredom and monotony of the long years go away for a while.

It would be a lie if I said that I was not interested in the way magic was used for the first time.
However, his method was a method of sacrificing himself.

A talent that is too overwhelming for a mediocre human body to handle, close to a disability.
It meant an ignorant overclock that pushed the fragile brain close to abuse.
If it stays like this, it will probably die within three years.

Just before Siu’s hand wrapped around Keter’s waist, her finger pricked Siu’s forehead.
At the same time, Siwoo’s body stiffened.
It was as if time had stopped.

Anyway, all things in the world are born and return to the soil in the moment of a moment.
There was no way she could have felt pity for a human man who had no clear contact points.

The reason he and Baron Marigold are favored is because they both have their own use value… But in fact, more than half of them were close to trivial entertainment.
It was very valuable to be ‘seeing for the first time’ in the midst of boringly repeated history and events.

“I wonder if your existence is really the foreground of a cliched repetition claiming novelty, or a clue to show you something truly new… I’m looking forward to it.”

A magic circle began to emerge from Duke Keter’s feet.
The large tree that began to grow behind her, like a shadow, resembled the fractal that Siu had been drawing on the wall all night.

As the trees swayed and swayed in the wind wrapped around Siwoo’s body, they soon began to glow with brilliant light.

2.
Duke Keter added an appropriate explanation for Siu’s current condition.

His transcendental ability, which blossomed in this accident, is to guarantee his lifespan in the end.
That the overload on his brain would soon cost him his life.
From the moment Amelia heard that, she didn’t consider whether it would respect his wishes to restore him.

[I will answer]

As expected, the handwriting of Duke Keter embroidered on the paper smoothly.

[Is that so?]

When there was no reply, the sentence continued.

[The only thing I want from Mr. Yeo is to do a simple favor in the future]

She expected that her request would not be simple, but she has no intention of arguing with her, her only companion.
The most important thing now is how to get him back to his original state.

Mistakes Other things, including twisted interests, can be undone.
But death is different.
Those who disappear cannot return.

[I want to know how to treat it]
[I’ll turn back his time]

Amelia was dazed for a moment.
Turn back time
Magic you’ve never heard of.
Is it possible for Duke Keter to go against the law?
It was already too close to ‘miracle’ to be a realm of magic.

[It’s not going to go back perfectly. It only brings you back to before you received an irreparable wound. The memory won’t be smooth for a while. There will be confusion and it will take a lot of work to take care of it]
[Exact meaning…]

There were still many things he wanted to ask, but Duke Keter cut off his words one-sidedly, as if his business was over.

[It would be quicker to check the details with your own eyes. One thing is certain, it guarantees his humanity. It’s going to take a while, but I bet it won’t take long. Who else knows? You might like his look]

After the last word in English, the letter paper crumbled and disappeared.
There was no explanation as to whether he would heal any more.
In fact, this is more of a notice than an explanation.

Letters torn into pieces drew a pattern on her desk.
To Amelia, the pattern, which was neither a magic ceremony nor anything, shone and disappeared, and a small glass bottle appeared instead.

It contained a white milky liquid and had a tag attached to the mouth of the bottle.
A crude tag like [Give me five drops a day].

I feel stupid.
Even though she wrote a letter to Duke Keter with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw, she did not expect an answer.
But to receive a reply and even a confirmation that he would treat me.

Could it be that my hopeless mind grew so big that I even faced hallucinations?
Rather, this idea feels more realistic.

Should I be happy or should I be sad?
No, Amelia as she stood there blankly, not knowing what she was supposed to feel.
She lowered her gaze again to the vial, proving that all this had not been a dream.

-Fallang

The tag flipped over, revealing the text on the back.

[Go to his room]

She had nothing to think about further.
When Amelia was born, she started running at her fastest pace.
It looked like a cheetah.

3.
Open the mansion door and climb the stairs.
No one can accurately predict the extent of Duke Keter’s abilities.
She just believes that she is the witch closest to the realm of a ‘witch of creation’ and that she can easily perform incomprehensible miracles.

Could it be that she completed her healing in that short amount of time?
Will she be able to talk again like before?

Amelia, who was about to kick in her door at any moment, froze as soon as she grabbed the doorknob of her room.

Afraid.
As much as she wanted to see him, she was terrified.
This is because he did not receive any definite answer about what he would say after coming to his senses and how the relationship between the two would continue afterwards.
The sudden development of events gave Amelia a sense of speed she could not keep up with.

“Whoa… Ha… Whoa…”

Amelia took a deep breath.
I tidy up her disheveled hair and clothes from her run and quietly twist her door open.

What catches my eye is the wall with his magic formula written on it.
The bed is removed so that the condition can be quickly checked at any time.
On top of it was Siu, who was covered with a blanket.
Amelia braced herself by the bed with her heart pounding.

And she feels a little out of place.
Was his body covered by the blanket so small? Because I thought
Amelia’s hands, trembling with her anxiety, slowly pull back the covers and appear…

“Ah….?”

He was a cute-looking boy.
Amelia blankly opens her mouth and watches it.

Siwoo is a healthy 28-year-old young man.
However, the person lying on his side in the bed and sleeping soundly was a small child of about 10 years old.

But the time together is 5 years.
Even if you look at the bridge of the nose, look at the eyes on the other side of the eye patch, look at the mouth, and wherever you look.
If you look at it piece by piece, you can figure out that this boy is Siwoo.
However, it was Shiu in his childhood.

When I heard the phrase ‘rewind time’, I thought I would have turned it back until I was hurt.
Didn’t this revert too much?

“Ugh… Ugh…”

In front of Amelia, who is dumbfounded, a boy, Si-woo, turns over.
The brow furrowed as if dissatisfied with the disappearance of the blanket.
Wearing pajamas with light blue polka dots, Siu opened his eyes and looked around him.

And as soon as he sees Amelia, he stands tall.
He can’t hide his fear at all, and even the expression that feels a sense of distance.
Without a doubt, he looked exactly like Siu.

There is an intelligent light in the eyes that always looked into the sky.
His expressionless face takes on the color of clear emotions.
Amelia felt her heart choke.

I’m back.
Siu is back.
It didn’t matter what form it was.

“Siw…”

Amelia involuntarily reached out her hand and stroked Siu’s cheek.
I could feel the warmth on his soft, soft cheeks.

“I’m awake.”
“Yes….”

Even the voice was childish.
It was a thin voice that seemed indistinguishable from that of a girl, let alone a voice changer.

“Do you recognize who I am?”

Amelia’s hand caressing her own cheek as if burdensome, and Shiu, who glanced at her face too close to each other, stammered to open his mouth.

“This is Amelia…”

Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes.
It shouldn’t be like this.
She confesses her wrongdoings to him, but not as a drama to force his forgiveness.

However, Amelia hugged Siu without realizing it.
There were so many things I wanted to say during that time.
There were some words that I couldn’t narrow down even though I promised not to make a mistake this time and organized them over and over again.
I couldn’t put a single word in my mouth properly, as if all the words and words were entangled in my throat.

Amelia managed to come up with a word of atonement.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”

Eyes clouded with tears.
Hugging him who was afraid that he would disappear, afraid that he would leave.
Amelia just sobbed as she confirmed his presence.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

I keep smiling
Even though I’m so sad, happy, and sinful.
Even though tears flowed like this, I smiled.

“Thank you… For coming back… Thank you so much…”

Siu, who had been held tightly in Amelia’s arms for a while, carefully opened his mouth.
It was a word that left a black line on Amelia’s chest in a different way.

“Amelia, did I do something wrong…?”

Siwoo said in an innocent voice.
He asked, terrified.
