Regressor Instruction Manual Chapter 701: I Knew It (2)

Chapter 701: I Knew It (2)

‘How do you remember that?’

Why could he remember something that even Benignore or Elune couldn’t remember?

Of course, it was undoubtedly not decided. It’s just a simple a.s.sumption so far. But I’m leaning towards him remembering more and more.

All probabilities were established just by throwing a simple a.s.sumption. That including the appearance of a control tower and a fight from the beginning.

They knew that Kim Hyunsung had returned, and they also expected that the second round of mankind would resist them.

‘Do you remember it completely?’

That part wasn’t clear. Perhaps it was indirectly out of the influence of regression because it was in the arms of foreign media.

He might’ve found his lost memory in some way. Of course, it was bad news for mankind. The continent wasn’t the only one aiming for the benefits of regression. They also had the advantage of being a regressor.

Still, I didn’t think the benefits were more significant than that, considering that they couldn’t do anything, but if I were a.s.suming a little bit of continental resistance…

It would pose a great threat to mankind, and so would the visible outcome. They were avoiding all-out war and confronted some areas since their control tower decided it was more advantageous. They had also given up fighting in some walls.

‘What’s your real purpose?’

No, I already knew the purpose. I had seen and heard some information regarding that.

The foreign forces wanted to manage the continent. They had tried to reduce the human population and stably keep the continent under their feet, but it’s all just talk. They were in a superficial position.

‘They’re demons.’

After seducing mankind with sweet words, they sucked everything up and pressed the ‘continental extinction switch’ themselves when the continent became useless.

Didn’t our lovely regressor say that all the time? They were demons full of hypocrisy and deserved to die.

-A lump of cancer?

-Yes, you red beast. He’s a lump of rotten cancer. Trash that is so united with hypocrisy that it disgusts the dimension itself, the invisible monster of enlightenment, the hypocrite who can only think of himself, the traitor, the swindler who deceives people with sweet words.

-It sounds like you’re talking bullsh*t to me. Aren’t you in a situation where you’re an intruder who suddenly barged into someone else’s house and asked, ‘what’s going on here?’

-It’s a different story if your guardian is wrong. We have such a responsibility in due course, which is to push the wrong guardian away and lead the continent and the creatures living under it to the right path.

-That’s your position. Who should manage who and who should lead who the right way? Cut the bullsh*t. Who gave you that responsibility in the first place?

-Think from a bigger perspective, you red beast.

-What?

-The continent is dying. Humans are killing each other…

-I can see what you’re talking about, but if you’re going to mutter your dog p.o.o.p philosophy, then I’d rather you just come down, you son of a gun. This is such a waste of time.

‘No, Noona. Let’s listen to it a little more. Calm down.’

-He’s eating himself. They’ve always ruined everything. Isn’t that history teaching us? They reject and destroy nature’s providence and eventually devour everything. I want you to leave your body to useless desires and go higher, pretending to be able to reject instinct but ultimately can’t. The same is true of the continent. Think of humans as extinct species and creatures. They are a race that is endlessly selfish and frightening to our eyes.

-Forget about the doc.u.mentary, that doesn’t even sound right.

-We don’t hate humans, you red beast. I love them, actually.

“Noona, listen a little more. The atmosphere is down anyway.”

-…

-I admire humanity. They are faithful to their desires. They are ugly and cannot resist their instincts, but we can’t help but love them. Look down at yourself now, red beast. The strength you have. The power you’ve gained. That is the potential that humans have. Look at the gravity weighing on us and the gift you call magic. That is the power of man. We just want to see the light that humans have for a little longer. I hope all living things on this land will be more prosperous and balanced. That’s how humans should live.

- That’s how we live our lives already.

-It may seem like it, but can you a.s.sure me that it will be, even if I look at this realm hundreds, maybe decades from now? It may be too early for you, but those who manage you are also unsafe. They are also insecure and emotionally challenged. Darkness is always after you, and light cannot protect you from them. Where else could there be such a lousy guardian?

-…

-The guardian now has neither the right nor the ability to protect them. Some people think of you as a simple way to make money and can’t sympathize with each individual’s pain.

-Put saliva on your mouth and stop talking nonsense. Don’t you see who’s picking a fight with whom?

-We are reasonable. For the absolute majority, the sacrifice of some minorities is always an inevitable story. I can also understand that you want to blame us, but how is it? Didn’t humans always behave like that? It’s not just that. They sacrificed many for the few and the future for the present. Isn’t that less reasonable and inconsistent?

-…

-Collect your troops. Neither do we want to make meaningless victims. Our sword is to protect us, not to harm you. We are not wearing the devil’s clothing. We are protectors and saviors.

‘What the h.e.l.l is this?’

As I continued to listen to the conversation, questions continued to arise.

‘Are they serious?’

The propensity seen by the Mind’s Eye was a well-meaning revolutionary.

It was far too ordinary for a guy who came to take over the continent.

In fact, it wasn’t wrong. The continent’s light was incompetent, and the darkness was aiming for it. There were even some who thought of their believers as a way to make money. Like Elune, that piece of trash.

I could relate to what he said. What more could I say?

From a more significant point of view, there was no loophole in his thoughts. Right at that moment, mankind was acting like one, but what about afterward? What choice would mankind make after the common enemy disappeared?

I was confident that it wouldn’t just run in a positive direction.

‘Aren’t we supposed to be used as a sacred farm?’

What cause did they really have?

I had no choice but to think that.

The aim wasn’t to breed humans by controlling populations. Rather, he had a genuine att.i.tude as a guardian.

He thought about the possibilities hidden behind the negative side of humans and was thinking about developing them. He wanted to provide an environment where we can push out evil guardians and grow in a stable direction. What a sweet echo it was.

Perhaps there would be no more people starving.

War and strife would disappear, and people could concentrate on what they wanted to do as if everyone was in heaven. They might be able to constantly explore and discover the possibilities of being asleep inside and take a step in a new direction.

It was hard to understand why Kim Hyunsung and some countries resisted them. If what they said was true and without lies…

I would have no choice but to admit that there was an error in my previous thought.

Indeed, if they had tried to use the continent as a sacred farm, they wouldn’t have tried to kill humans as much as possible.

There would have been no constant fighting, and the continent might not have collapsed. Of course, there were other perspectives.

‘That’s if what they’re saying is all bullsh*t.’

If all those remarks were lies, and if the truth was all about the destruction of human breeding farms or continents…

It didn’t sound like he had been lying, but there were a lot of guys in the world who were different on the outside and inside.

‘Shall I provoke him a little bit?’

It might be a bit dangerous, but I didn’t think it would be a bad idea all in all.

I didn’t know why he became so talkative, but perhaps it was because he recognized Cha Hee-ra as an equal being. It wouldn’t matter if we judged it to have worked as a boon to our side.

As she spoke slowly, a question rose in Cha Hee-ra’s expression. Her face was mixed with curiosity about why he knew that and why he called that to be told. In the end, I said it with my mouth.

-You guys failed once, didn’t you?

-…

-You guys failed. Isn’t that so?

-…

You guys were talking about this and that, but it was for a different purpose in the end.

-It’s not us who failed.

-What?

-It’s not us who failed. It was because of that… dirty lump of cancer. I mean, it was because of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

‘What? Sh*t. What’s wrong with your face? Look at your expression.’

-It was a mistake to trust that disgusting b.a.s.t.a.r.d. We fought a fight that we didn’t have to do, and we killed the people who deserved to live on the continent with our own hands. It’s because of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d. It’s because of the son of an a.s.shole that we failed!

‘What’s wrong with you? Take care of your image.’

-We were deceived by his words. It’s not our failure at all! Everything should have gone as planned if not for him. Everyone would’ve lived painlessly, the continent would’ve prospered, nature would’ve run rampant, and magic would’ve become abundant. Worry and anguish would’ve disappeared, and all life on the continent would have enjoyed what they deserved.

‘Sh*t, are you hot-tempered?’

-It was a life filled with pain and screams that took place instead of pleasure, and it was plague and the dead that ran rampant instead of nature. Humans were constantly killing each other, and the growing conflict couldn’t be sealed.

‘Hey… don’t cry. Why are you crying? Crocodile tears, right? Tell me I’m right.’

-When I tried to undo everything, I realized it was too late. My brothers and sisters died on the stage prepared by that trash, and so did their beloved humans. That cancer is on n.o.body’s side—that disgusting piece of trash. I mean, the trash ruined everything. The continent was cast through filth with false angels, false faces, false words, and false deeds. It was by no means our failure. The last thing like that was…

-…

-The past’s results weren’t what we wanted. By no means was it the view I wanted to see.

-…

-I still remember the desolate place with nothing left…

‘Hey, you sound like you’re on the side of justice. What’s wrong with you?’

-I’ll never let it happen this time. I won’t let you have such an ending even if my eyes are closed. I will never let this continent fall into the hands of that cancer. I know it’s painful to be sick, but… We… we have no choice but to fight.

‘What nonsense are you throwing? Sh*t, just be honest with me.’

-For the prosperity of the continent.

‘What is it? Sh*t. Are you serious about this?’

I didn’t believe it, but his acting was top-notch. If what he said was true… There was a possibility that what I knew about the continent wasn’t true.

‘Is that true?’

Did he drive a wedge between the continent and the foreign press?

‘No way… no way…’

He filled the continent with plague and the dead? Not only did he not take anyone’s side, but he also caused conflict?

‘This is…’

The red scenery that Kim Hyunsung looked at… Was it him?

I already knew he was trash. I already realized that he was a vicious villain with no way to save him, but…

‘To what extent have you ruined everything Jin Qing?’

His evil deeds had far exceeded my expectations.
