CC: Cosmic Chaos (SEASON 5)

🕰️✳️장63 (AA): Kang Seung-Shi (Pt. 1)

"Seung?"

The Phoenix groans as she opens her eyes hissing softly as the sun rays hit her gold and blue eyes.

Jong Suk smiles seeing her awake.

"Hey... You've been unconscious for five weeks... And well... It took us four weeks to travel here in your hometown..."

Seung's eyes widened upon hearing what he said.

"Home...?"

"Yeah! We're here on Matthiou Island!"

Seung looks around as Jong Suk smiled and went out of the house.

"I remember giving the throne on this Island to Dongwook..."

She whispered before going out she followed Jong Suk

"Yeah, but instead of calling this Island Matthiou Tribe, or like Gift Of God... They call this Sun Tribe/Island."

"That's fine..."

Seung smiles softly as she walks with Jong Suk on her side.

"People here are happy... But I heard from Dongwook that someone challenged him two weeks ago and is now the new Tribe Leader."

"Who?"

"His name is Moon Christopher Chan."

Seung's eyes widened.

"That's Rin's boyfriend..."

"Then let's visit him."

Changbin was helping the knights lift some barrels when he saw Seung and Jong Suk.

"Holy shit... Seung! You're alive!"

He happily runs towards them.

"Yeah... What are you boys doing here?"

"Well, long story short, Chan defeated this guy named Dongwook..."

"You do know he defeated Rin's father... Right?"

"HER WHAT!?"

Seung's sweat drops as she chuckled and followed the running Changbin.

"Chan! You just beat the shit out of Rin's father! Dongwook!"

Chan's eyes widened as he looks at Seung.

"You're alive!"

"And you're dead once your girlfriend finds out you beat the shit out of her father."

"I know..."

Chan nervously chuckled as Seung approached him.

"Since you're here... I would like to say thank you..."

"For?"

"Not killing me when you heard the news that I changed the tribe name and I became the king?"

"It's fine..."

Seung pats his head.

"This calls for a celebration!"

The Phoenix watches as everyone lifts their beers and chugged them happily, she smiles and grabbed her beer, and went out to smoke.

Lighting her cigarette, she inhaled the smoke before exhaling as she looks around the new and improved Tribe.

"Seung Noona."

Seung looks behind her and smiled at Chan as the boy sat beside her.

"I'm curious... As to why you knew Rin immediately, she told me you have lived... For so long. And this is the 4,000th time you see Rin."

"And Ji-Sun also... But yeah, it's the truth..."

Chan hummed as he looked up and smiles seeing the stars twinkle.

"Lee Rin I and Jung Ji-Hoon..."

The boy heard the phoenix whisper.

"That's their name... We traveled the world, we lived, laughed, and fought together. We were mighty, we were strong, we were fearless... But things have come to an end."

Chan sips his beer as Seung puffs the smoke out of her lips.

"Rin died due to sacrificing herself to save the magic island, Ji-Hoon too... Due to their deaths, I was cursed to be immortal."

"Seung... I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, I live through many years of the reincarnations of Rin and Ji-Sun... It pains me that they don't remember their past lives as I lived through the suffering of them always dying in my arms... 3,999 times... And I promise that this time... It will not happen, not on my watch."

Seung finished her cigarette and sighed.

"I have seen everything, felt everything, heard everything, I have come to know life more that it is enough for me... I have no more to live for... I have lived through many, and that is enough. I have loved, and I have been loyal... And that is enough... The immortal life is enough, If the curse is lifted... I'll die by old age."

Chan frowns as Seung chuckled.

"But Seung, if you die what about them?"

"They'll be fine on their own once I helped them in the war, that's my final wish and my final life."

Seung closes her eyes.

"Seung... Can you tell me about your past more?"

"Sure kid."
