Regressor Instruction Manual Novel - Chapter 333

Chapter 333: I Have No Shame in my Life (1)

Naturally, I had already completely forgotten what I checked. To deceive others, one first had to deceive oneself.

In fact, I felt fierce anger at the trashy Jin Qing that I could easily pass through a lie detector.

‘Dirty demon summoner. Trash bastard. There was a garbage guy here that couldn’t even be recycled.’

At this point, I could even conjure tears.

When I recalled that Jin Qing, the dirty masked trash, had toyed with Jung Hayan of the first round, my fists had clenched without my knowledge.

My beloved prospective bride had suffered from some dirty punk in the past. Not only that, but he killed Cho Hyejin and strongly backstabbed the lovely regressor.

It would be strange not to feel angry even though this wasn’t the real turn of events.

Yuno Kasugano was quietly glancing at me a few steps away as if she was feeling my anger. She didn’t seem to realize what I was thinking yet.

“Thank you for showing me something important, Kasugano.”

“It is natural, master.”

“I’m glad to see the garbage in the black world with my own eyes. We’ve figured out the filthy trash identity who drove the light camp into a corner. Right? What would have happened if we didn’t see this today? He must have been a great threat to us.”

“What?”

“I think that demon summoner Jin Qing was the villain who threatened the black world. Whoa… I really didn’t expect it. Right?”

“Yes? Ah… Ah yes. You’re right. Yes. You’re right, master.”

“Are you sure you understood?”

“Yes. I got it.”

As soon as I spoke, she nodded frantically. As she was smart, she would know what I was talking about.

Kasugano, who didn’t even know Kim Hyunsung was a regressor, seemed to be wondering why I was saying this.

But that was not what mattered. What mattered was who the masked trash was. I had already decided his identity, and Yuno Kasugano simply went along with it.

“The master in the black world spent the rest of his happy life with me. I clearly remember living with you after I rescued my master from an isolated dungeon. I mean, when the masked Jin Qing joined the brigade.”

“Ohh. Yes. We did, right?”

In the meantime, Yuno Kasugano started adding useless details to the story. It didn’t matter, however, and it didn’t bother me at all. Honestly speaking, I even wanted to applaud her for making up such a detailed backstory.

Seeing her muttering to herself whilst smiling, I could tell she was in a good mood.

First, all the heavy burdens in my heart had been removed.

I hadn’t decided what to do afterwards, but what I needed to do now was obvious. I had to prove my innocence to the lovely regressor.

This mission’s goal was to indirectly convey the fact that the dirty demon summoner Jin Qing was indeed the masked trash.

In the meantime, Kasugano carefully opened her mouth to ask a question.

“More importantly, master, can I ask you a little arrogant question?”

“Of course. I think I know what it is, but… you may be wondering why I care about the black world, right?”

“Yes. Of course, if the master doesn’t want to, you do not have to tell me… I wonder if I can help…”

“Hmm…”

‘She can surely help, but…’

In fact, I wondered if it would be better to tell her that Kim Hyunsung was a regressor in order to do things a little more smoothly, but I also thought that I had to consider this matter a bit more.

‘What do I do?’

Of course, I could be indecisive.

It was not that I didn’t trust her, but because I was naturally wary.

However, considering that the merit when she directly acted was also quite big, I started to think that there was nothing wrong with revealing it to her alone.

She herself was a half-regressor, anyway.

If Kim Hyunsung found out that Kasugano can watch the first round, I might be able to move things forward in a whole new phase.

‘That’s right! Fuck! I should have done that from the beginning!’

I felt so stupid, wondering why I haven’t thought about using her all this time.

Having Kasugano dispatched unconditionally benefitted me. Upon making my decision, I opened my mouth to speak.

“Have you ever heard of a regressor?”

Of course, she shook her head.

Yuno Kasugano didn’t even know that the black world had been the first round.

Besides, I could roughly predict her reaction, but it was still quite different from hearing the story through others.

As I slowly began to explain, I could see her continuously nodding. Unlike the weight of the content, it didn’t feel like I was talking about something big.

I just calmly conveyed the fact that Kim Hyunsung was a regressor and that the black world that Yuno saw was the first round that Kim Hyunsung went through, and about the probability that he was looking for the masked trash, Jin Qing.

Yuno Kasugano continued to nod. Funnily enough, she didn’t seem to be suspicious of me.

Of course, this was a highly improbable story. And yet, there was not a single speck of doubt on her face.

The moment I expressed my conviction about the black world that had been unclear so far, Yuno Kasugano suddenly began to cry.

‘What’s up with her? What’s wrong? It’s not something to cry about. Wasn’t she expecting something like that?’

“I see. Sniff… so, that’s what it was.”

“Yes.”

“And master knew that the Blue Guild Master is a regressor…”

“Right. The reason I’m with him is not simply because of that… Well, anyway, what I just told you it’s a secret between us. I believe you got what I mean.”

“Ah. What about the others…?”

“The others?”

“The wizard or the Mercenary Queen.”

“They don’t know. No one knows about this, including Jung Hayan or Cha Hee-ra. This is something that only you and I know.”

“Ah! I-I’m so honored. It’s a secret… it’s a secret between us.

“There is nothing to feel honored about. Well, you might think like that. I believe you probably know what to do from now on. I think I can explain the details later… But is there any problem?”

“This… no, nothing. But master, maybe…”

“Yes?”

“Do you remember what I told you in the black world?”

“What specifically do you mean…? I heard so many things.”

“I mean the lie I told to keep you.”

“Ohh…”

“I said that I had seen a future where you and I live happily together. I said that the master would’ve had forgotten everything and live happily with me. I told you that I found you because you kept appearing in the future I had seen. With no doubt.”

“You did.”

“At the time, I thought it was a lie to keep you from leaving. As a result, it was a foolish remark that touched the wrath of the master who had lost Park Deokgu, but… I was thinking about the possibility that it wasn’t a lie…”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m talking about the possibility that I may have seen the future of the second round, master.”

“Ah…”

It felt like I got hit in my head with a hammer momentarily.

In fact, I had never thought about the possibility that Kasugano in the first round would see the future of the second round.

At the time of seeing that future, I thought Kasugano would have lied to stop me simply, but the speculation she was making right now sounded very credible.

Kasugano in the second round was also limited, but she could look inside the first round.

Perhaps Kasugano from the first round could also look into the second round. For Yuno in the black world, the second round would have been part of the future as well.

If that was the case…

‘It’s awesome.’

I started to smile.

“Maybe, in the black world, I think that while I was dying, I thought about the second round. Thinking like that… makes me sad and overwhelmed… Sniff.”

“I see… and you…”

“I died for my master. It was an end that fits me from the black world, and she, too…”

“Can you tell me exactly how you died? You said you couldn’t know exactly before. Have you seen anything in the meantime?”

“That’s…”

It seemed to me that she was having a hard time answering such a trivial question. Unlike that time, when she was not clearly aware, she now seemed to know how she had perished.

However, it seemed as if she didn’t want me to know, so I chose to stay quiet.

When Kasugano saw my face and was just about to speak, I just raised my hand and stopped her from opening her mouth because, in the first place, it wasn’t very important for me to know how she died.

“Stop. It doesn’t matter now. Anyway, thank you again.”

“No. I just did what I had to do. D-Do you trust me now?”

“Hmm…”

“Oh…”

My hesitation was a joke. However, when I saw her devastated face, I had no choice but to immediately stroke her hair. Perhaps this was the answer instead.

Naturally, I saw Kasugano smiling widely. Even I started to feel better.

If what black Kasugano saw was really the future of the second round, it was almost certain that I would walk in a bed of roses.

‘Although the future can change…’

Basically, the warm news that I would actually have a happy ending made me want to fly.

No wonder I opened my mouth, glancing at Kasugano.

“I also hope the future you saw is the present future. No, it will definitely happen. Even if it is a different future, we have to do our best to achieve it.”

“Ah… Master. To think that much!”

It was when I smiled that I felt like I’ve made a big mistake. What she told me at the time began to come to mind slowly.

‘I saw you and me together in this house. We looked h-happy. We had two kids, and I haven’t heard their names yet, but they were definitely good kids.’

“Huh?”

As I turned, I saw Yuno Kasugano’s face, who was still crying with her face blushing.

“Huh?”

“I am not good enough, but I will do my best to serve you.”

“Oh, I didn’t mean that…”

“Please accept my bow once again.”

“No, wait.”

It felt like she was having some kind of weird misunderstanding.

When I swallowed hard, I heard a knock on the door.

For a moment, I thought that it might be Jung Hayan, so I got tense, but it wasn’t her voice at all.
