Lemegeton 423

Chapter 423 – Side Story. In Modern Times①

“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh, uuuuu!!”

Roa woke up to the sad sound of moaning in his sleep and looked next to her.

“Ooh, ooh… Ooh, ooh…”

Yuria was moaning so sadly, tears flowing from the corners of her eyes so that her pillow was wet.
Seeing Yuria shaking and twitching her body and making a sound that was close to a scream, Roa gently grabbed Yuria’s shoulder and shook her.

“Yuria, Yuria”

“Uuuuu! Uuuuu!! Ugh…”

Yuria, who had been crying so desperately, seemed to have come to her senses at Loa’s touch, so she stopped sobbing and slowly began to open her eyes with blurry eyes.

“Ugh… Loa?”

“Yuria. Are you okay?”

Yuria just tilted her head at Roa’s worried look.

“What happened?”

As Yuria slowly raised her body, the white Hotel Evil flowed down, exposing her fair skin and her plump breasts. Roa’s face turned slightly red for a moment, and then she opened her mouth.

“Don’t you remember?”

“?”

Seeing Yuria’s expression that she didn’t really know what was going on, Roa explained what she had seen a little while ago, and Yuria then raised her hand and traced her face.

In fact, traces of tears were still left on her face, and her pillow was also soaked to the point that one wondered if it could be this wet from tears from one person’s eyes.

“Really… Me?”

“Yes”

Yuria tilted her head.

Because they didn’t really dream.

In the first place, physically, there was no reason to dream and there was no need.

If you are going to rest in the first place, is there a need to make your brain work?

Above all, they had little need for sleep.

It’s not that you don’t sleep at all, but it’s enough to literally sleep for a while only when you need rest, and even if that’s not the case, it’s also possible to alternately sleep between the left and right hemispheres like a dolphin.

Therefore, it was very rare for them to dream.

In fact, it is said that there is no dreaming function at all.

However, it was rare to have a precognitive dream due to a misexpression of precognitive ability.

However, this day was different.

Just like what happens when primitive humans dream, when they wake up they can’t remember the contents of their dream at all.

No.

Rather, is it true that she was dreaming?

She couldn’t believe that she had talked in her sleep, but she couldn’t help but notice Roa looking at her with such concern and the moisture left around her own eyes.
And the damp pillow told her that she had been talking in her sleep.

“Our species would actually be unable to dream… No, even if we did, there is no way we wouldn’t remember the contents of our dreams…”

“Yuria. Is there something wrong?”

“Hmm…”

Yuria closed her eyes for a moment and contemplated herself deeply.
She really didn’t miss a single detail. She looked at everything, but she didn’t see any problems.

A more precise diagnosis could only be made at a facility in her hometown or home country.

However, isn’t that a facility for analyzing criminals or prisoners, not equipment for health checkups?

After thinking about it for a while, Yuria came up with a hypothesis.

“Trauma… Is it?”

“Yuria…”

“Well… There were too many things to just cover up…”

“…”

Roa just hugged Yuria tightly without saying a word.

Yuria’s breasts were pressed tightly against her Loa’s chest, hugging her like the solid flesh of Loa.

Yuria and Roa, who woke up a little early but couldn’t sleep again, checked out as early as 7 a.M. And walked down the street.

Yuria said that this is a parallel Earth with a level of civilization similar to that of Earth in the 21st century.

Like Yuria’s hometown, there were many things here that she could not imagine in her own hometown, but at least she was able to live with her feet on this land.

Compared to Yuria’s world, where she carries a bead in her back pocket, it still feels like a place where people live.

“You said let’s get used to it here, right?”

“Yes. I will live here for about 40 years and then move on to the next era.”

This era is still a transitional period before entering the interstellar era.

It was also a dark age when humanity was almost destroyed due to its foolishness.

Of course, because the timing was adjusted appropriately, the dark age did not begin in earnest while Yuria and Loa were staying here, but it was a quite bitter time.

This is a time when various problems, including global warming, are occurring due to environmental pollution, and we are on the verge of extinction.

“40 years?”

“40 years is not much time. As Loa became a transcendent, his lifespan became almost infinite.”

“Still… 40 years seems like a very long time.”

It seemed that the racial differences came from this.

Yuria and Yuria, who lived a funny life from the beginning.

If you do not surpass the level through training, you will have to live well for 100 years.

Loa failed to surpass the realm and became a transcendental person, and his lifespan became meaningless. However, perhaps because he had the sense that his original lifespan was 100 years, it seemed like 40 was a very long time.

“Well, if Roa adapts earlier than expected or doesn’t like it here, she can leave earlier, but it’s a long-term vacation she’s been working on for a long time, so can she go back early?”

“It’s okay to spend more time in a different era.”

“But Loa probably won’t like the era of space advancement.”

At Yuria’s words, Roa scratched her cheek with a sigh.

The universe was definitely a difficult place to get used to, even if you were just leaving for a while.

Yuri, the universe actually looked as comfortable as a fish out of water.

“So, you don’t wear suits here?”

“Well, it feels a bit empty, but this era is a place where you look strange if you wear something like that.”

“… In our world?”

Yuria just chuckled at him and smiled.

“At that time, I felt reassured because I had that at least. I am fine now, so I shouldn’t compare myself to then.”

At that time, it is possible to easily wipe out demons that were barely stopped by using all possible means, as easily as twisting a child’s arm.

At that time, when my condition was not very good, I felt that demons were the size of wasps, but now I feel that demons are as bad as mosquitoes.

She can only cause ‘damage’ to herself.

To me now, the level of damage that the demons could inflict was meaningless.

In the first place, she wasn’t willing to let damage happen to her.

“More than anything, this place is weaker than the Loa world.”

“Huh?”

“Of course, if you look at it ‘universally’, this world is stronger, but if Orochimaru falls on this world, will it be destroyed?”

“…”

Upon hearing Orochimaru’s name, Loa’s brow furrowed.

Even after Yuria said it herself, her expression slightly distorted, as if she was remembering the memories of that day, and her gaze lowered slightly.

“Let’s sleep. I came here to get used to it and have fun, so stop talking about painful and depressing things.”

“Yeah…”

“I will slowly create a status in this world”

“Creating an identity?”

“I chose this era because this country has the best security, but this country is a country of extreme record lovers.”

When you are born, your feet will be stamped from the date you were born. Handprint. It’s a crazy country that records everything, including blood type, and gives each citizen a unique number.

“… Is that possible?”

“That means the technology is good. Well, it looks like they somehow managed it with grit even before the technology became available.”

“Ha…”

Roa shook her head as if her words were not coming out.

“But then isn’t it impossible for us to intervene in this world?”

“That’s why I said ‘make it'”

“?”

“Literally, me and Loa are going to create an epic story of her being born and raised in this world and record it.”

Roa said, ‘Huh…’ And she looked at Yuria.

“This country is my country, but Yuria who does it be also amazing.”

“The end. It’s already over.”

“Eh, eh?!”

“This is why computerized places are more convenient.”

Of course, there are still some paperwork, but those can be handled slowly later.

“Okay then, shall we go to the museum first?”

“Museum?”

“Yes. If you look there, it will be easy to understand what I am trying to show Loa.”

Yuria and Roa wandered around and visited various museums.

The flow of history.

World history and Korean history.

And human history.

In it, Roa felt something strange and unfamiliar.

“It’s a little different from the world I used to live in, but uh, um…”

“But to what extent does it match the era of the Middle Ages?”

I saw it while looking at the museums. From the perspective of this country called Korea, the ‘Middle Ages’ of Western history were in some ways more uncivilized than their hometown, but when looking at some eras, they were superior in some ways.

“Actually, I was thinking of going from the modern era, but I’m sorry. It was too inconvenient for me to operate something there, so I decided on this era.”

“If it’s modern times, it’s when the steam engine came out, right?”

The steam engine reminded me of the Sorbi Empire.

Unlike Sorbi, which made steam with fire attribute mana stones, in this world it seemed like steam was made by burning coal.

“How do you feel about the Korean language I gave you knowledge about?”

“Well, it’s a little awkward, but I don’t think there’s any problem with understanding.”

“Then let’s go to the library this time.”

A huge building called Seoul Metropolitan Library.

Loa felt overwhelmed by the sight of the building, which was so bizarre and gigantic that it was hard to understand how humans could build something like this.

And after entering the building, I was completely out of breath due to the overwhelming amount of books that made me feel like I was being crushed to death.

“W-what kind of book…”

“Well, most of it is stuff you don’t really need to read, so you can ignore it.”

Yuria dragged Roa around, grabbed her books, and handed them to Roa.

As each of her books piled up in her hands, Roa somehow felt the weightlessness of her books.
In reality, even if you lift hundreds of these books, there is no way they would be heavy, but for some reason, the weight of the book felt heavy.

“Should I just read this much for today?”

“Gulp!”

Most of the books that Yuria gave to Roa were history books.

War. War. War.

History was all stories of war.

Meanwhile, what caught Loa’s attention the most was the story of Rome.

“It’s a unique country, isn’t it?”

“It was a great country. But at the same time, it was a very rotten country.”

The political world has become so rotten that it has developed so out of step with the times that it has fallen into self-destruction.

The system that was created to keep each other in check in order for politics to stand correctly is instead used as a means to keep from losing power and is eroding the country’s national power.

And it was the same in this era as well.

If you think about it, it was the same to some extent in Yuria’s world.

The central government of the Alliance for Human Innovation is rotten in many ways.

In the past, when I couldn’t think about anything other than fighting, I didn’t even realize what was wrong and didn’t even think about it, but now it was different.

Now, he was actively reclaiming and utilizing the rights given to him.

“Ironically, how do you feel when you see that countries after Rome emerged that were worse than Rome?”

“Uhm…”

“In fact, it is true that this place is not as good as Rome in some aspects.”

Humanity changes and develops rapidly over time.

However, sometimes the change did not necessarily lead to development.

“What is development…”

“Nothing much. Sometimes you move forward. Sometimes you step back. You take a step back. But in the end, you move forward. That’s progress.”

Didn’t someone do that?

It’s called taking one step back to take two steps forward.

“In that sense, I hope Roa finds something he wants to do in this era.”

“That’s a lot of weight on my shoulders.”

“Huhu”

And so the second day on Earth in the 21st century came to an end.
