Chapter 23
Translator: effe

It was a mountain beyond a mountain. Hyemi pressed her hand on her stinging temple.

“When he heard that you had woken up, Cedric summoned all the knights. I should have stopped him earlier, but it’s too late. Forgive me.”

“I’m sorry to interrupt, but wait a minute.”

Hyemi raised her hands slightly as if to stop him from approaching her. He stared at her without saying a word.

“Don’t come near here… Can you sit in the chair and talk to me?”

Walter’s dark eyebrows twitched slightly. Seeing the strange expression on his face that seemed to be disappointed and angry, Hyemi cleared her throat once.

“I feel like I’m out of my mind when you come close… I’m scared.”

“… Scared?”

Walter’s face was distorted, giving a more intense impression.

“No, I don’t mean that… .”

To be exact, what was more frightening was her own condition.

“Anyway.”

Seeing the person who gave her an unforgettable first experience even in death, Hyemi chewed her lips, unable to finish her words. How could she do it all night like a beast with the man she’d never seen before if she wasn’t out of her mind?

Staring at her as she sighed heavily, Walter dropped his body in the chair in front of the table.

A silent and agile movement that does not match his large size.

She felt it while looking at Cedric earlier, but everyone here seemed to have a knack for moving without a presence. Just looking at them, they weren’t ordinary people. It must have been a result of a lot of training for a long time. What the hell did they do?

“Can you explain a little bit? Where are we, what are you people doing? Little by little.”

“… you really don’t remember anything? Nothing?”

Seeing the disappointed expression on his face, Hyemi couldn’t comprehend herself, who felt strangely guilty.

“Yes.”

“What can I explain first?”

Among the dozens of questions that came to her mind, Hyemi asked the most necessary information first.

“Who is Benedict? That silver-haired man.”

She had to find the man who was a bit crazy. Hyemi was convinced that he was the one who brought her here.

“It’s the Pope.”

“The Pope?”

“He’s also the Archmage.”

“Archmage?”

Walter looked at Hyemi, who repeated his words like a parrot. Hyemi tried her best to keep her head as calm as possible, as it became increasingly confused. She is a modern person, and the most important thing for a modern person is information.

The silver-haired man named Benedict is the Pope and the Archmage.

“Yes. He was the one who brought you back to life and found your lost soul.”

Walter’s tone was strangely cold, but it didn’t matter to Hyemi.

“So if dead… that… Are you talking about Eden?”

“You are Eden.”

Hyemi bit her lips while listening to Walter’s words.

She was abducted by a strange man yesterday and moved dimensions.

1-2. A person named Eden died in this world. Finding the lost soul of Eden in Korea, Benedict used a man named Walter to bring her into this world.

That was the reason for her dimensional move. Okay. It was still good up there. But there was one serious problem.

“I’m really sorry… I think I should be honest about this one thing before asking another question.”

“What?”

Hyemi looked at Walter and took a deep breath, then exhaled with a face full of tension.

“The Pope must have found the wrong soul.”

“… What does that mean?”

“Don’t you know? You said that you didn’t want me to die so that’s why you looked around in fear. But I’m not the woman you’re looking for. Actually, you brought the wrong person… !”

Walter gave a heavy gaze to Hyemi, who was clenching her fists and shouting seriously. His face looked like he didn’t believe anything at all. Hyemi let out a sigh and grimaced as if begging for him.

“It’s true. So please take me to the mage Benedict.”

“If you really can’t remember anything, how did you know my name?”

“… What?”

“You called me as soon as you opened your eyes. My name. Walter.”

“That… That….”
