Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 119: Shaman (2)

'What... Why is she crying?'

Her eyes were basically nonexistent. I wasn't sure, but I had a feeling that she was blind. Nevertheless, she was looking in my direction.

I could no longer comprehend the situation at hand. Seeing the tears streaming down her face, I felt confused and distraught. I looked around me anxiously, but it was obvious that she was heading towards me.

'What...

She furtively avoided her gaze and stopped for a bit.

Seeing her quietly wiping her tears with a handkerchief, it seems she didn't even realize she was crying.

More than anything...

'It's hard just trying to read her expression.'

Of course, this might also be because I was trying my hardest not to look at her. It was hard to grasp the concept of her having the propensity of a fallen seeker, and I didn't even know what kind of crazy trait was the eye that could see through the essence, the future, and the past. All I knew was that her eyes could see way further than mine would ever do.

In other words, I met someone I wouldn't be able to understand at all.

'Fuck...

There was nothing as annoying as meeting someone unpredictable.

I knew Cha Hee-ra felt uncomfortable, as she did not know how this particular woman would behave. At least Jung Hayan was honest with her feelings. How this shaman chose to react in front of me was already way out of my expectations.

No wonder I couldn't understand her. As I stepped back, Cha Hee-ra took a step forward.

Ah, Cha Hee-ra..."

"What are you doing?"

"It's been a long time, Cha Hee-ra."

"Yea, it's been a long time, whatever... What brought you here all of a sudden? And with tears scattering like that..."

"Ah, it's nothing. I just came to say hello."

"To whom? We weren't close enough to do that. No, it seemed like you had some business with my baby rather than me... I'm not wrong, right?"

"It's not like that. I just... I really just came to say hello, Cha Hee-ra."

"You know we're a bit sensitive because of those motherfuckers in Celia right now, right?"

She fell silent.

"I don't know if you're involved or not, but honestly, the junk over there doesn't look very good. I should know what kind of rubbish you'll be doing again. You came to say hello to me in this situation... You stupid woman. If it wasn't for a strong castle, you'd be dead."

"I don't know what's going on... exactly..."

"If you don't know, shut up and get out of my sight. I don't know if you really don't know or if you're pretending not, but my baby seems to be a little uneasy."

I didn't feel anything negative from Yuno Kasugano, so I felt like Cha Hee-ra was too harsh. However, I supposed it was only right to feel sensitive from the attack on Lindel.

Of course, assuming that the shaman is showing a different behavior than usual, Cha Hee-ra's reaction makes sense.

Considering the conversation between Cha Hee-ra and Victor, the shaman herself didn't seem very passionate about this meeting. However, she still arrived early and had even come to 'greet' us, which was already quite suspicious when assessed logically.
