Clues about regression. I hadn’t given it much thought, hadn’t ford many theories.
I hadn’t delved deeply into it.
I had simply accepted it as a miracle, a chance to turn back ti and retry everything.
Why did I regress? Why did ti always revert to the sumr of my twentieth year?
I could have returned to the mont before my death, or perhaps to my childhood, before everything began.
If that were the case, I would have had more ti to contemplate and could have resolved everything in fewer regressions.
It wasn’t long ago that I started questioning why I always returned to the sumr of my twentieth year, a difficult period with limited options.
I couldn’t find any information about the Moonstone, even when searching for the artifacts.
It was as if it never existed, its traces erased from the world.
That question led to more questions, a series of inconsistencies that brought here.
The aning of the inscription on the wall of this ruin was simple.
It was a simple answer, but it resolved so of the questions I had been pondering.
The incompetent goddess couldn’t interfere with ti, so she was helpless against the great dragon hidden within its distorted flow.
“So, what remained was precognition.”
While it was known as a seal, the mural depicted the Four Dragons split into two.
To be precise, they were divided into mind and body, and it was the body of the Four Dragons that was sealed.
The precognitive abilities, weakened by ti, were considered nonexistent.
It was a misconception. The precognitive abilities still remained, retaining their power.
My hand traced the mural, moving quickly.
My reading speed increased, as did my comprehension.
I needed a lot of knowledge to understand and process all of this.
It took only a mont to combine this information with what I had learned about the Four Dragons from Arwen.
My eyes narrowed as I continued reading the mural.
I already knew that turning back ti was one of the Four Dragons’ abilities. But I hadn’t given it much thought.
I had assud that the Moon Goddess could also manipulate ti if the artifact contained her power.
But the mural clearly refuted that assumption.
The Moon Goddess couldn’t interfere with ti.
The only being capable of manipulating and utilizing its distorted flow was the Four Dragons.
In other words, the artifact known as the Moonstone wasn’t created by the Moon Goddess.
“…Then.”
My outstretched hand pointed to a mural depicting a dragon hidden within ti.
The dragon’s objective was simple: to reclaim its body.
It had to reclaim its body and destroy this world created by the Moon Goddess.
But finding its body within the distorted flow of ti wasn’t easy.
Ti was a complex concept, so the great dragon, hidden within it, sought a way to reclaim its body.
A body capable of accepting its destructive nature, a body that could withstand its power.
Preferably, a sentient being.
The sentient beings in this world were the demi-humans and humans.
Had the dragon tried to contact the demi-humans?
The next mural answered that question.
It depicted the demi-humans fighting against the dragon that erged from ti, all of them perishing.
The survivors fled to a vast forest.
I couldn’t help but chuckle when I saw the image of the vast forest.
The forest where the demi-humans resided, the Southern region of the Empire…
The vast forest, located in the center of the continent, was known as the demi-humans’ territory.
The dragon killed all who opposed it.
The terrified demi-humans fled to the forest seeking refuge, and the great forest would beco their ho for a long ti.
It was a statent that seed to predict the future, but it was close to the truth.
The demi-humans still resided there, even a thousand years after the disappearance of the Four Dragons.
While they had been briefly displaced during the Empire’s rise, the forest had always belonged to them.
The demi-humans had rejected the dragon, so I assud the next vessel it sought was a human.
There was only one sentient being capable of accepting the dragon’s ti-traveling consciousness.
I paused, running a hand over my face.
Adele, who had approached , was staring intently.
She seed to have noticed I was reading the inscription.
While she couldn’t understand the content, she must have realized it was sothing serious.
“I’ll… read a little more.”
“Do as you please. It seems serious.”
My hand moved to another mural.
The inscription was slightly faded, but the image and text clearly depicted the dragon making contact with humans.
Humans found the dragon intriguing, and not all rejected the being that had defied the gods.
After all, a tenth of the Empire didn’t worship the Moon Goddess.
Adele looked at the human interacting with the dragon and spoke hesitantly.
“Is he with the dragon?”
“I don’t have enough information to explain it in detail, but yes. It’s about regression.”
Adele frowned at the ntion of regression.
She knew that ti reversed when I died.
She seed to find it difficult to talk about, clearing her throat several tis before continuing cautiously.
“Regression… you an what you’re experiencing?”
“I suppose it’s an explanation… but a lot of things are different.”
The source of the regression wasn’t the Moon Goddess, nor was it . Then who had created the Moonstone?
The answer could only be the Four Dragons.
The only being capable of interfering with ti.
If the mural wasn’t misleading, and the Moonstone was still resonating with this ruin… there was only one conclusion I could draw.
The Moonstone was created by the Four Dragons. I was living within a repeating ti loop created by them.
But why?
I pondered this for a mont, then realized the mural ended there.
Or rather, it had been erased. Not deliberately erased by soone, but faded with ti.
The faint remaining characters clearly ntioned ti, but the information was incomplete.
I would probably need the Church’s help to find more information about this place.
Or perhaps I should ask Arwen for help.
She was the foremost expert on the Four Dragons at this point.
She wouldn’t have visited this ruin in the North, so perhaps this place would be helpful for her research.
“Did you find anything?”
I shrugged at her gaze.
I had found sothing, but it only raised more questions.
The only thing I had discovered was that the Moonstone might belong to the Four Dragons.
My regression was intentional.
It wasn’t solely for my benefit, it was intertwined with the Four Dragons’ intention to reclaim their bodies within the distorted flow of ti.
I tried to be optimistic, but there was nothing positive about this.
I forced a smile.
I didn’t want to show my confusion in front of Adele.
“Do you think you look fine just because you’re smiling?”
Her words, seeing through my facade, made my smile falter.
I had tried to hide it, but was it that obvious?
Adele looked at , blinking slowly.
She muttered that it was a mistake to co to this ruin, then approached , taking my hand.
“I’m sorry. For bringing you here.”
“…There’s no need to apologize. It’s sothing I need to consider.”
“Then I should apologize even more. If it’s sothing you need to consider, then I need to consider it as well.”
I didn’t understand her words at first, but then I did, and I looked at her.
She didn’t seem embarrassed at all.
Her confident, almost defiant attitude flustered .
“I don’t want to hear you say it’s a secret anymore. I’ve been thinking about this since I rembered our past together, but we’re not the type to keep secrets from each other. You and I.”
“It’s not that I’m trying to keep secrets-”
“You’re trying to protect by keeping it to yourself, aren’t you? Do you think I don’t know you? I know. I know what you’re thinking, why you’re hiding things from .”
Adele approached , and I didn’t back away.
I stood still, almost inviting her closer, and she stopped right in front of , her lips inches from mine.
I could feel her sweet scent, and I smiled wryly. She chuckled softly and continued.
“If you’re looking for sothing, I’m going with you this ti. That won’t change, no matter what you say. Try to stop if you want. Try to tie down sowhere.”
“Why would I do that to you, Adele? It’s just… it’s dangerous. You know what the Four Dragons represent.”

); }
The Four Dragons weren’t simply related to .
They were connected to the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince was involved in Adele’s death.
That was why I wanted to keep Adele out of it as much as possible.
Even if this was a first, it was painful to even consider that small possibility.
Should I consider her actions stubborn, knowing she had died at the Crown Prince’s hands?
No, I thought about it differently.
It wasn’t stubbornness but affection. I understood her feelings because I had co to understand her through my past lives.
“You’ve always prioritized others over yourself. You said you didn’t want to tell because it was dangerous? I hate that even more. It’s frustrating to simply know that you’re doing sothing dangerous. So, I’m going with you this ti. No matter what you say, no matter how you try to stop .”
With an unwavering gaze, the woman who resembled the cold winter continued.
“I’ve decided.”
