  “Roaar~”


  An immense hairy yeti charged at the past Sungjin who swung his sword in retaliation. Sungjin watched over his new past self with his arms crossed. The way this Sungjin wielded his blade or reacted to enemy attacks was not particularly different from his past self or the current him.

  However, the weapon was different. He was wielding a sword that gave off a silver aura instead of the scarlet Blood Vengeance, or the blue-tinged glow of Moon Specter.

  ‘Is it…… made of silver?’


  Seeing that a few swings of the sword had effortlessly cut the yeti’s arm into slices, which were as thick as logs, it was easy to guess that the sword was at minimum a legendary tier weapon. In the midst of battle, one of the team members shouted,

  “Shit! There’s Ice Trolls behind us.”


  Just as his past self turned around, a pack of trolls holding massive clubs appeared.

  “There’s too many……”


  The hunters were surrounded by the trolls. Sungjin’s past self looked around the area, then held up his sheath as he shouted,

  “Divine Protection of the Tiger Chieftain.”


  The pair of tigers engraved on the sheath came out as spirits and paced around Sungjin. Finally, the fight began. The past Sungjin was the focus of the troll pack’s attacks, but each time, the tiger spirits would swing their paws and protect him.

  “Roar!”


  The dreaming Sungjin thought,

  ‘That skill…… I’ve never even seen anyone else use that before……’


  Though it seemed as if Sungjin’s party had fallen into a critical situation, the fight was easier than expected.

  “Ring of Fire”


  This discrepancy between the expected outcome and reality was due to the efficiency of his past self and Edward’s magic. After the fight was over, his past self swung his sword downwards through the air to remove the blood before sheathing it, like he had always done. When the dreaming Sungjin saw this, he thought,

  ‘.…… Even the habits are the same…… It’s definitely me, but…… Just how did this happen?’


  Sungjin thought to himself that he wanted to see his second meeting with Edward. The moment he finished the thought, the scene changed.

  “Ohh, Sungjin, you’re still alive.”


  “Edward, you too…… It’s nice to see you again.”


  The dreaming Sungjin looked around the area. The area seemed to be the Great Plains of Barrastan.

  ‘Again…… It’s different.’


  According to his memories, the place that he had met Edward was not here, but at a later chapter. Edward asked his past self,

  “So, how have you been? From when we met until now?”


  “Well…… The monsters were more or less do-able…… But I nearly died the last chapter to a troll.”


  “Ahh…… Trolls……”


  His past self shook his head as he said,

  “Just what’s up with these retarded rules? To make us have to divide contribution amongst the comrades that we had fought together with. It’s not just a few hunters that are dying because of these trolls.”


  “Indeed…… But we can’t do anything about it. Since it’s like this, we can only do our best.”


  The past Sungjin was still wearing the sword engraved with tigers. It was here that Sungjin came to a conclusion.

  ‘This…… It’s definitely a past that I don’t remember…… Then this means……’


  Sungjin then thought to himself that he wanted to see Edward’s death. Soon, the scene changed. Edward was standing in a dark and gloomy prison. The moment Sungjin saw this, he thought,
