Episode 285
“Souls that are unable to leave after three days due to the cycle of reincarnation often become undead, a type of ghost such as a so-called evil spirit-wraith or specter, and sometimes wander the world for a long time or stay in a specific place. “Usually, it’s the two cases I just mentioned.”
Lorraine has not been able to leave town for the past eight years. This is because when he tried to leave the village fence, his body(?) was moved back to the center of the village.
The phenomenon was the latter of the two cases described by Mayen.
“normally? “Then are there any special cases?”
“Although it is extremely rare, there are cases where it turns into a spirit due to its affinity for nature. A priest with sincere faith like Logan is guided to God and becomes an angel. “But it is truly an extremely rare case.”
“ah… … .”
Erdin opened his mouth blankly when he heard that people become spirits or angels when they die.
Next to him, Jeron stuck his finger into his mouth.
After a while, Erdin said, ‘Ugh! make! Tsk! He spat at Jeron, saying, ‘Tsk!’
“Back to the point. As you know, ghostly undead like Wraiths and Specters have only one end.”
They cause harm to people and then get kicked out. In such a case, it cannot return to the cycle of reincarnation and disappears. It was a sad end, but it was a natural result considering it was the price paid for causing so much damage.
“If you wander the world for a long time or stay in a specific place, you have no choice but to have someone relieve you of your soul’s resentment or help you enter the cycle of reincarnation in some way.”
Originally, Lorraine should have returned to the cycle of reincarnation.
“Sometimes things like this happen. “It’s the phenomenon of a dead person coming back to life.”
“A dead person came back to life?”
Those words were hard to believe. However, such a phenomenon was rare and actually happened. Lazarus syndrome is named after the resurrection of Lazarus in the Gospel of John in the Bible. In modern times, it was like a miracle that might happen once a year or not. However, this time as well, it was not a phenomenon that could be applied to Lorraine.
Because Lorraine’s soul left her body for eight years.
“… … The longer the soul and body are separated, the closer it becomes to becoming one again. “This is because the longer the soul leaves the body, the more the wavelength changes as it changes little by little depending on the person’s emotions or surrounding environment.”
Moreover, in Lorraine’s case, the time was not short.
It was a whopping 8 years.
They say it was a ghost town that no one visited, but that’s nonsense. But it was a reality that everyone witnessed. She returned to her own body. Even in a world full of mysteries, it was a phenomenon that could only be explained by the word miracle.
“Do not worry. Ms. Mayen and I looked and found no problems. “I was very healthy with no abnormalities.”
One problem that is not a problem is that Lorraine’s body was so excellent that it could be said to be superhuman.
The reason was easy to guess.
He underwent surgery to become a fake master.
Although the body was empty, an auror hole was also created.
I have already surpassed the category of an ordinary person.
“The change has not yet been revealed to the extent that Sister Lorraine can feel it, but little by little, as time goes by, she will gradually become stronger and her movements will become more agile.”
This part is actually not a big problem. This is because Lorraine can control the changes in her body if she is fully aware of them and trains consistently. The real problem was different.
“Among the survivors, there was no one from the village like Sister Lorraine.”
In short, this means that when Lorraine returns to the village, she will be alone again. There is also the option of moving to another town or city, but it was not mentioned. This was not because one had to obtain permission from the lord to move one’s residence.
This was because Erdin was staring blankly into space as soon as he finished speaking.
“What do you want to do?”
Jeron asked, but Erdin didn’t answer, probably because he was so distracted that he didn’t hear.
When I tap his shoulder, he looks at me with blurry eyes and asks.
“… … yes? “What did you say?”
“What are you going to do with Lorraine?”
“Yeah… … .”
Erdin hesitated and was unable to continue speaking. Numerous thoughts could be seen passing through his complex expression.
Jeron sighed softly and said to the timid guy.
“If you want to go together, you can do so.”
“yes?”
When I looked at him with disbelief and asked, ‘Really?’ I almost gave up my fist, but I exercised my patience and nodded.
“You like it.”
“yes? “Do I want Lorraine?”
Erdin asks, startled as if he had been stung by a bee.
“I don’t think anyone said they liked anyone?”
“Ahh!”
“Sit down when something nice is said.”
“yes.”
Jeron quietly suppressed Erdin, who was about to go crazy, with words.
Of course, he had his fist raised right in front of his eyes.
“I’m not saying that I like it rationally. When did you say you wanted to meet Lorraine seriously? She’s not a Geumsa fan. There are various types of feelings of liking. … … no. I don’t know why I even have to explain this. Anyway, if you want, let’s go together. of course! “Don’t forget that you are solely responsible for Lorraine.”
Erdin thought about it and answered.
* * *
Lorraine looked blankly at the sky.
I thought he was dead. I don’t know why, but I thought he had become a ghost and couldn’t leave the village.
‘I was thinking so.’
I stretched out my hand towards the sky. She clenched and opened her fists. The sun seemed to be trapped in her fist and then released. The sun, which had been hidden for a moment, once again tickled my cheeks with its warm sunlight.
I closed my eyes and savored the warm sunlight.
‘Eight years.’
It was by no means a short time.
After 8 years, I became a 25-year-old.
To be honest, I still felt uncomfortable and awkward in my current body. It was different from when I thought it was just a dream. You can think of it as the subtle difference between knowing and doing something without knowing.
‘It’s still good.’
I feel alive.

Even this time just sitting still and enjoying the sunlight was precious.
A shadow fell over Lorraine’s face.
“What are you doing?”
“… … “I was out in the sun.”
Erdin quietly moved aside and sat down next to Lorraine.
“What are you going to do next?”
“What should I do?”
Lorraine opens her eyes and asks a question. It was a voice with a lingering touch of sunlight.
“Where are you going?”
“why?”
“… … “I asked the question, but I don’t know why I have to answer.”
“Stop whining. “I need to know why you’re asking that so I can give you the answer.”
“Are you a little different from what I saw in the village? I was a complete crybaby back then… … .”
Erdin was unable to continue speaking and had to smile awkwardly as his gaze was so cold that it sent shivers down his spine.
“You’re annoying.”
“So you don’t like it?”
“… … !”
Lorraine glared at Erdin, who was smiling slyly, for a long time, but eventually turned her head and looked somewhere else without being able to say no.
‘You seem embarrassed.’
Erdin noticed Lorraine’s red-hot earlobe.
I smiled slightly and asked a real question.
“shall we go together?”
“… … good.”
* * *
From the moment it was confirmed that Lorraine would accompany him, Erdin taught her many things.
It wasn’t anything great.
Mayen and Logan examined Lorraine’s body and told her what they found out, the changes that would come as a result, and finally, how to control those changes.
And the method was very obvious.
“You have to get used to it.”
“how?”
“Practice and train over and over again.”
While cleaning up Maiyan’s laboratory, Erdin watched Lorraine’s every move and corrected it. This is because it was the most important time when no physical changes occurred.
“I haven’t even gotten stronger yet, but do I already have to feel uncomfortable like this?”
Lorraine, who was no different from an ordinary country girl, was uncomfortable with everything. But she had a vague feeling that little by little she was getting stronger. So she just grumbled and obediently followed whatever Erdin told her.
Erdin visited Jeron when Lorraine was resting and asked for the Naegongsimbeop.
Lorraine’s Auror Hall was open.
It was forcibly opened to turn it into a fake master, but its size was larger than Erdin’s Danjeon based on simple numbers.
In order to move forward together, we needed the strength to protect ourselves in situations where Erdin could not protect us.
“Ask for Naegongsimbeop? “Did you leave it to me?”
“Jeron is the lord. “I could give one to my vassal, right?”
“Crazy guy.”
Jeron looked at Erdin, who boldly made the request, as if it was absurd.
“tomorrow.”
“all right.”
As Erdin left the tent, Jeron selected one of the numerous Neungongsim methods in his head and began converting them into Auror exercises. It wasn’t difficult. All you have to do is change the order and location of the internal energy flowing.
After leaving the tent, Erdin went straight to Lorraine.
“as… … !”
Erdin found her sleeping with her back against a tree and urgently covered her mouth with his hand. She was then carefully picked up and carried to her bed so as not to wake her. She was so tired that she didn’t even raise an eyebrow until I laid her down on the bed.
‘Just try a little harder.’
Erdin gently straightened her disheveled hair and went out.
I sat at the base of a tree and watched the sun go down.
This is the 5th day of my stay here.
The cleanup of Maiyan’s laboratory was slowly coming to an end.
It was soon time to leave.
“ha.”
In fact, Lorraine’s companionship was, on the one hand, disturbing.
Because the road ahead was very difficult.
A war caused by orcs. And the evil plans of the Magic Tower and the Church of Christ branch.
I was worried that Lorraine, who had been caught up in Maiyan’s terrible experiments, would be able to handle them.
“Maybe I was too greedy?”
The only people who knew what Maiyan had done to Lorraine were Jeron and the others, as well as the agency and the forum. It was possible for her to live as normally as she did before, as long as she kept quiet about the forum.
“What are you shaking about?”
Jeanne approaches Erdin, who is worried, and asks.
“You’re in dire straits. “I have a lot to worry about.”
“I don’t know when trouble and distress became the same thing.”
Jeanne smiled and stood next to Erdin.
“There is no need to panic. “Because he’s stronger than I thought.”
“A strong child? Jeanne, no way… … .”
“Shh. “A woman’s age is a secret.”
Erdin swallowed his saliva as he sensed a sense of life in Jeanne’s calm voice. This was real. If you move your mouth carelessly, daggers may fly at you. She smiled awkwardly and nodded her head, and the cold feeling on the back of her neck disappeared.
“I had a conversation with that kid earlier.”
