“Whoa. ”
I had a severe burn on my hands holding two artifacts. This burns in less than 0.1 seconds.
“· · · · · · · · No. ”
It seems impossible to use artifacts from both factions at the same time.
‘That's too bad. ’
The inability to use artifacts from different races at the same time was a bit painful.
I expected it to be a fun way to deal with Unknown.
“Look at the way he turned black when he squeezed 0.1 seconds. ”
I laughed, gazing at the black remains of the Mongols and the stigmata's stigmata.
It was then.
Dodo!
I heard someone running violently towards me.
Boom!
My door was roughly opened.
Luna, who looks embarrassed in the world, yells with a cold sweat on her forehead.
“Sa, son-in-law! The magic of the Monkeys is in this room right now! ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
The touch of 0.1 seconds leaked the Mongols' magi.
‘I should stop experimenting with demonic artifacts for stat raises. ’
I made a commitment.
“Luna! The magic of the Mongols is in this room right now! ”
“Amazing! Did you just feel that?” ”
Jean, after Lena.
Seeing the crowds rushing in behind me, I made a commitment again.
“Well, that magic just leaked from this necklace. What kind of experiments am I experimenting with? ”
“Ah!”
“That's what it was. ”
We shouldn't use the artifacts of the Faction in this geographical area.
I don't want to be a traitor.

That night.
I couldn't sleep, so I was walking in the garden. It was a poorly manicured garden, because it was an exhibition.
Roughly bloomed flowers and branches also had their own charm.
‘· · · · · · How are Gianna and others? ’
Maybe it's because I talked to my child about the past and the future. I miss Gianna and others today and I'm worried.
That's why I can't sleep.
Are you gonna be okay?
I was suddenly struck by fear.
I feel uneasy about the possibility that my actions could erase their existence.
‘I think it'll be okay, but · · · · · · · · · ·. ’
As I told my child, there is a much higher chance that whatever I do in this past time axis will not affect the contemporary time axis where I was originally.
Proof that my existence and the child's existence are intact.
‘But not 100%. ’
Hypotheses are like that.
There is no 100%.
That's why I'm scared.
‘If I think my actions will make them disappear · · · · · · ·. ’
It's creepy all over my body.
‘I know this is the best way, but · · · · · · · · ·. ’
Scary is scary.
A 5% chance, maybe 1%.
Let's say you have a 1% chance that your best friend needs to hit the kill switch.
How many people wouldn't be afraid to flip that switch?
Fear inevitably rises when penalties are high, given the low probability.
“Phew · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
It was when I looked up at the sky with a long sigh.
“Ah, ancestor. ”
“Adele.”
I just met Adele in her light pajamas.
“You must be awake. ”
“Yes?”
It looks like he asked how he knew.
“The head.”
Whether he was sleeping or not, his head is a little messy like Adele's.
“Oh.”
I approached Adele and straightened out her messy head.
“Ahh. Thank you. ”
Maybe he was ashamed of the fact that he was disoriented.
Adele thanked Father with a slightly reminded expression.
It reminds me of Jia one by one.
“There you go.”
I stroked my head lightly and confronted Adele directly.
“What are you doing out this late at night? ”
Adele grins bitterly.
“I just woke up from a dream. ”
“Nightmare?”
“No, it's not a nightmare. Just a little weird dream. ”
Adele tucks her back and sweeps through the rough blooming flowers.
“What was the dream? ”
Then he sits down, sweetly touching the red flower and smiling.
“A dream of training with your ancestors. ”
Looking at the picture of adele, I smiled, too.
“Aren't you excited about getting your new skills in the morning? ”
“Is that so? ”
Adele smiles cutely.
“A strange dream, that's all? ”
“No, there's more. ”
Adele gets up from her seat and turns to face me.
Adele's blonde hair shines brighter, as if she didn't want to lose to the moonlight.
“I played with the princess. ”
He stares at me with an unknown look, knowing what he is thinking.
“With Lena? Where? ”
Is it a dream that reflects Lena's desire to get to know her?
I asked nicely.
“I've never seen this place before. Maybe it was your ancestral home? ”
· · · · · · Your home for the first time?
I felt a strange strangeness about it.
“There I am, playing with a beautiful girl with a bright smile. ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
A beautiful girl with a bright smile.
“We cook together, we play with our shiny walls. I'm having dinner with my ancestor, who came back late. ”
I could feel my pupils vibrating a little bit.
It was because I realized what Adele's dream of seeing meant, roughly.
“And we went to school together. We study, we eat, we train. ”
Adele smiles with pitiful eyes. I stared at Adele dazed like that.
“When I was in danger, my ancestors rescued me. ”
The more I heard, the more convinced my expectations were.
“Amazing, isn't it? In a street I've never seen before, people I've never seen before laugh at and talk to. It's been a pleasure.”
Adele's eyes sank with grief.
“Ever since I met my ancestors, I've been having these dreams every night. ”
Adele looks up at the sky.
The Milky Way is a beautiful night sky.
“I'm happy, but strangely sad. That's why I keep waking up in my dreams. Why?”
The eyes of the Milky Way pierce my eyes.
“Ancestor? Why are you making that face? ”
Adele approaches me with a worried look.
What was I looking at, that look on my face?
“Are you not feeling well? ”
I don't know.
“Ancestor?”
I didn't have a chance to think about my face right now.
“Where really · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
“Adele.”
I called out to her in a trembling voice.
“Yes?”
“That dream · · · · you've been having lately. ”
“Oh, yep. ”
I carefully asked with trembling lips.
“In that dream · · · · Did you or did you not get called something else? ”
Adele's eyes widen a bit.
“How did you know? In my dreams, I'm called something else. ”
My lips trembled even more.
“Shinjia.”
It was a beautiful smile like a rose on the garden.
“In my dreams, I was called Shinjia. ”
My head was numb.
