I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

verdoing this.

If I was in Korea, I would have asked.

While staring at the crimson tea in the teacup with a complicated mind, I remembered the time when Kim Woo-jin was a C-rank.

Indeed.
Even when he was a C-rank in the past, he used to run after the gate at risk.
He had been re-awakened to A-rank and had only been training, so it seemed he was quite frustrated.

I hoped he was careful not to get hurt though.
Of course, I was sure Requiem would take good care of him, but…

“All the other children will be fine.”

“It would be.”

Elohim turned off the TV and approached me.

“I’ll leave it like that while you’re here, so watch it whenever you’re bored.”

I smiled bitterly as I accepted the remote control he was handed.

I sat on the floor with my back to the temple pillar.
I could see the blue sky and puffy clouds and a wide meadow spread out below.
Even in front of a landscape that was difficult to face, the news I had seen before continued to linger in my mind.

I don’t regret coming here.
It was a necessary choice and that thought still persisted today.
Even if I went back to when I left Korea, my decision wouldn’t change.

I just… right.
I kind of missed them.
It was funny to feel this way now, but it was hard to force myself to turn away anymore.
Without realizing it, I got quite a bit of affection.

Maybe it was because Ha Tae-heon left and was left alone.

“Haa…”

I couldn’t help it.
As I sat and did nothing, I kept thinking useless thoughts.
It seemed better to go to the library where Elahah was and get a recommendation for a book worth reading.

I was about to stand up, clicking my tongue, but the grass in front of me shook and a white face popped out.

It was the fox I met this morning.
The kid who ran with a branch in his mouth spit it out under my feet.

Then he lifted his hips high and just wagged his tail.
I didn’t know what he was doing, so I watched it for a long time and realized it later.

“…what.
Throw it?”

Piik!

Perhaps it was the correct answer, now he was running around me as if he was going to jump out right away.

Was it a dog, not a fox? No, if I thought about it, foxes were canines too, right?

I smiled helplessly inside, picked up a branch, and threw it away. Pababak! The fox ran out.

Even though I threw it with a lot of force, the fox came back quickly.
On the contrary, he seemed quite satisfied and more excited than before.

‘Annoying…’

But unfortunately, I didn’t want to play anymore.
If I ignored it and went back to the room, I was afraid he would bite my ankle, so I had to throw the branch far away and run away quickly.

“Hup!”

This time, I really threw it away with all my might.
The branch thrown by the A-rank body with all its power quickly disappeared through the bushes.
The fox, who stood still and looked up at a branch that was flying in the distance, ran out.

This time.
I hurriedly turned around before being caught again.
I even used my wind ability to quickly run away into the temple, but belatedly, I heard a faint sound of exhaustion behind my back.

I’m sorry.
Ask Elohim to play with you, not me.

Passing through the main hall and standing in front of the arched marble door, the door opened on its own in the absence of Elohim.
Apparently, there was a measure to make it easier for me to drop by.

As I slipped my face through the open door, Elahah spoke to me as if he had waited.

“Why don’t you play with him more, why are you here?”

“Hello.”

When I replied with an awkward greeting, Elahah, who was lying in the mid-air, slowly opened his eyes.

“Were you watching me?”

“It’s you this time.”

“Yes?”

As I blinked at his words, Elahah came down to the floor and beckoned.

“Come in.
You look pretty bored.”

“I’m bored.”

Before Elahah changed his words, I went straight to the library and looked around.

“If you are here…”

“Is there any book you would like to read? There aren’t many, but there are.”

The fragrant scent of flowers brushed the tip of my nose as Elahah’s long-awaited robe fluttered.
Elahah was quite tall, but unlike Elohim, when I looked at him, I felt a bit of a breath-taking atmosphere.

“Here you go.”

“…is there anything else?”

The book Elahah pulled out of the bookshelf was the Botanical Encyclopedia.
When I was disgusted with the “Encyclopedia” that was written on the cover of the book titled, he raised the corner of his mouth lightly.

“Do you want me to find children’s fairy tales?”

It was the first time I saw Elahah smiling.
That was how he smiled like that.

I shrugged my shoulders and answered with a more relaxed mind.

“I think that would be better.”

“Hm, right.”

Elahah, who flew through the air and pulled another book from a high bookshelf, held it out and warned.

“It doesn’t matter if you look at something, just ask me or El and take it out.
This place is different from the study in a poor house.”

“I understand.”

“Two times is enough to touch someone else’s past without paying for it.”

“……”

The last words were stabbed like thorns in pain.

‘Two times.’

One probably meant ‘Abyss’, and the other…

“Don’t worry.”

When I shrugged my shoulders and gave a light response, Elahah, who had been staring at me for a moment, turned his back first.
Looking at him returning to the centre of the library, I lowered my gaze.
The title ‘The Little Prince’ caught my eye.

 

 

T/N :

…probably the appearing TV scene is like this one.

Poor our cutie fox, he wanted to play with you, Yi-gyeol… QAQ

And apparently, Yi-gyeol didn’t want to admit the main character of the red book is Sa-yeon wwwww
