“W-Where am I?”
Just one more step and I could’ve punched Evil God, but I ended up being teleported sowhere else.
It was pitch black all around , so I didn’t have an inkling where I was.
Moreover —
“Seriously… I can’t teleport.”
I couldn’t create a magic teleportation circle.
Not only that, I couldn’t even release my mana.
What’s happening?
“ — @#$”
It’s my fault. My intuition told to stop, but I ignored it.
Are Tina and the others safe?
We prepared as much as we could, so they should be able to return to the mansion even without . Sea God is there, so as long as they manage to reach ho, Evil God won’t be able to do anything to them.
I already told them to escape without any hesitation if sothing happened to . Well, it’ll be good if they did run away, though…
Even if they escaped safely they will probably be worried about , so I should hurry and return as soon as possible.
Alright, let’s grasp the situation first.
The weird thing about this is my inability to conjure magic.
I could feel that I was standing sowhere, but —
It felt as if my body was scraggy.
It’s as if I had turned into a dragon or sothing —
“I congratulate you on your birth.”
Soone’s voice suddenly resounded out of nowhere.
Birth, what did he an by that?
Besides, just where is that voice coming from?
It felt familiar, as if I already heard it sowhere before.
“What’s up? Your eyes can see, supposedly.”
Even if you tell that, I can’t see anything.
“That’s because you’re not thinking about seeing your surroundings. If you wish for it with all your might, you will definitely be able to do that.”
Wish with all my might… Is it really fine with only that much?
I didn’t really get it, but I got nothing to lose, so I obeyed the voice.
I wanna see around , I wanna see, I wanna see, I wanna see.
— Ohh!! My surroundings have beco faintly discernible.
There was a huge dragon in front of , and it was no other than Soryuu.
“Once again, congratulations on being born.”
“Soryuu-sama?”
“Yeah, that’s right — Hm? Oh, you’re a transmigrator, huh.”
Yeah, I’m a transmigrator, but… Soryuu’s attitude was different from before.
“Ahm! May I know what happened to ?”
I probably got caught in Evil God’s curse.
As a result, I got teleported here, or so I thought.
But… It wasn’t so.
“Seems like you don’t know what situation you are in.”
Soryuu then peered at .
My figure was reflected in his ginormous pupils.
And what was there wasn’t , but a blue dragon.
When I raised my right hand, the blue dragon reflected in Soryuu’s eyes also raised its right hand.
This dragon was my current appearance, apparently.
“...Eh.”
W-Why!!?”
“Transmigrator, it seems like you’re still confused. Well, it’s understandable. You suddenly beca a dragon, after all. If it’s alright with you, I can answer your questions within my ability.”
Soryuu kindly told that.
But, I dunno why. I felt his attitude is different from when we t before.
“Soryuu-sama. This is the second ti we’ve t, haven’t we?”
The first ti was when I asked for Soryuu-sama’s claw to make Katara’s drop.
It hadn’t been that long since then. Did he forget?
“What? But I don’t have any mory of…Oh, wait. Are you perhaps —”
The gigantic pupil stared at .
It felt as if he saw right through , through every fiber of my being.
“Halt… I see. You are Halt, aren’t you?”
“Y-Yes! Yes, it’s , Halt!!”
Finally, he rembered — was what I thought, but I was mistaken.
“You ca from ten thousand years ago in the future by virtue of the Evil God’s curse, didn’t you?”
“...Eh?”
I didn’t understand what Soryuu was saying.
“This is the first ti I t you.”
“Pardon?”
“The you t before must be the living ten thousand years from now.”
“W-What does that an?”
“You have been cursed by the Evil God of this world. That’s how you traveled back 10,000 years and ca here. I know this, because I have the precognition — the ability to see the future.”
I did read sowhere before that Soryuu had precognition.
That’s good.
The problem was the curse casted on .
“I don’t understand. Just what kind of curse was casted on ?!”
My status was supposedly frozen in the first place.
Even Katara’s drop couldn’t break this Static Status Curse.
And yet, I’m here now, transford into a dragon and sent back 10,000 years into the past.
Does that an the curse I got caught in was powerful enough to overwrite the Static Status Curse?
I don’t understand this transformation to dragon business, nor getting blown 10, 000 years into the past.
“The curse casted on you is [Cycle of Transmigration] Curse.”
“C-Cycle of Transmigration?”
“That’s right. This particular curse is quite particular. It’s one that transfers the psyche of a person only.”
“Pysche… then, does that an only my consciousness is within this dragon’s body?”
“You can say that. Normally, psyche and souls are inseparable. However, the one you got cursed with forcefully separates the soul and psyche when certain conditions are t.”
In this world, people are made out of [body], [soul], and [psyche], or consciousness.
The figure of the body is ingrained within the soul, so that’s the reason why we can revive people through the resurrection spell even if the body had been destroyed.
Even if there was no body, as long as the soul was intact, then it could be solved sohow. However, if the soul was damaged, then the worst result would be death.
[Psyche] is the elent that controls the soul and the body — that’s how Soryuu explained it to .
“Halt. The Evil God casted the Static Status Curse on you, didn’t he?”
“Yes, that’s true.”
“That’s a very powerful curse. When you were transmigrated as Saijou Haruto, the curse had been casted onto your soul, wasn’t it? Because it is a curse that had been [Fixed] onto your soul, unless your soul disappears, you will never be able to lift this.”
By the way, since the soul itself had been frozen, my soul would never be destroyed.
“If that is the case, then this matter has beco all the more confusing to .”
“The curse of the transmigration cycle doesn’t ddle one iota with the body and the soul.”
Hm… Ao what does that an, then?
“Because it cannot ddle with the soul, [Static Status Curse] can’t break the [Curse of the Transmigration].”
aning to say, psyche had been blasted into this space, so it’s a bit different from transmigration.
I thought I had been teleported along with the space surrounding , but the reality might be a little nastier than that, probably.
My defenseless body might be splayed in front of the Evil God, after all.
…Hm?
Wait a sec.
“If my psyche is the only thing moved to this palace, then my body and soul should still be in front of Evil God, right?”
“I’m afraid so.”
— In that case, Evil God probably can’t do anything to my body, given that it’s in the state of [Static Status].
“That’s only if the Evil God didn’t teleport your body sowhere else.”
Well, I think it would be okay.
As long as I’m still inside the sa world, I could teleport no matter where it is.
I felt a little relieved.
Now, all I had to do was to get inside my body and go ho afterward.
“Soryuu-sama. How do I get back to my original body?”
Soryuu understood all the creations existing in this world.
He could even see into the future.
He probably knew the way to lift this transmigration cycle curse.
I was right, but —
“That’s easy. You have to complete your transmigration into all the Six Realms — in short, you just have to die 6 more tis.”
“Eh?...”
Dying just once had already made want to punch the Evil God, the root cause of my death, and yet…
In order to return to my original body, I needed to die six tis, apparently.
