I Don’t Want This Reincarnation-Chapter 305

Lee Joo-ha got out of the car and ran to Hong Si-ah.

“Master Hong Si-ah.”

“You’re here?”

Hong Si-ah, who was staring forward with her arms crossed, noticed Lee Joo-ha and smiled slightly. She had a cold and heavy atmosphere that was different from her usual.

“What do you think? Is there something wrong with it?”

“No. It’s the same.”

In response to that, Lee Joo-ha raised her head and looked straight ahead.

The Deus Museum of Art had been well-received for its sophisticated design exterior, spacious interior, and various works of art. Currently, the entire building and garden of the museum were encroached upon by an unidentified orange veil.

Even though it was quite a distance, she felt a stinging pain on her skin. It was because of the energy that came from the veil. Even the S-rank herself was like this, so other people couldn’t even get close.

“It’s just past 5 p.m., so it’s already been four days since the veil was created.”

Hong Si-ah, who checked the time by looking at her wristwatch, asked Lee Joo-ha with a worried look.

“Talented Cha Soo-yeon? Is she okay?”

“I forced her to rest for a while because she seemed exhausted. She will be back in less than five hours.”

The government and the media were stunned by the sudden veil.

Not surprisingly, many businessmen, politicians, and famous actors were among those who disappeared into the veil. They were the ones who attended the unofficial auction of the museum, which was revealed later.

The problem was that there were many ordinary citizens besides those invited to the auction. They came to visit the art museum with their family on a weekend afternoon and were eaten by the veil. Cha Soo-yeon’s mother and her sister also disappeared.

Despite the disappearance of many people, the search for a solution had been slow. The representative of the official who studied the veil gave the answer, “It’s difficult to analyze the veil with certainty because it’s mixed with a substance that is currently unknown.”

Lee Joo-ha, who was out in Japan for a guild job, was rushing here when she heard the news. Frowning her brow, she peered through the orange veil to the blurry view of the museum building.

‘Tae-heon-ah…’

She had been receiving separate reports about the Praus Cult from Ha Tae-heon, who was moving, so she knew that Han Yi-gyeol, including him, Cheon Sa-yeon, and Requiem Guild members were doing it together.

Since they formed a team with great rankers of talented people, there was a high possibility that they would be safe, but… she couldn’t help being worried. She hoped everyone who went missing was alive and safe.

Kkigik!

It was at that time when Lee Joo-ha sighed with a heavy heart. A black car stopped behind her, the door opened, and a familiar person got out.

“Head of the Center Choi Mi-jin.”

“Everyone is here.”

A cold impression with dark short hair and dark circles under the eyes. It was Choi Mi-jin, the head of the gate management centre, who belonged to the management headquarters. After that, there was a woman with a face she had never seen before.

“Who is that?”

“She is the person who can check the inside of the veil.”

At those words, Lee Joo-ha and Hong Si-ah’s eyes turned to the woman. With her black hair tied up in a bundle, she opened her mouth with an annoyed expression.

“My name is Lee Soo-jin.”

After hearing the introduction, Hong Si-ah said with her eyes wide open.

“Lee Soo-jin? Then you’re the telekinesis who was said to be training at the management headquarters.”

Lee Soo-jin. She was a B-rank telekinesis person who once worked in the Praus Cult.

After working at the Gangnam club where the drug was concentrated, she moved to the management headquarters after meeting Han Yi-gyeol, who came to wipe out the drug gang.

For the past two months, Lee Soo-jin, who had been formally trained at the management headquarters with the help of Choi Mi-jin, has grown stronger and her ability had also increased.

Hong Si-ah, who looked at Lee Soo-jin with interest, said a word.

“If it’s a telekinetic ability, it would definitely be useful in the current situation.”

“People can’t approach it, so we have to send the goods instead.”

Choi Mi-jin handed over a very small camera that she brought along to Lee Soo-jin. Lee Soo-jin walked to the front of the safety tape hung around the veil while holding it, closed her eyes, and the camera in her hand came to mind.

The small camera flew into the air and flew quickly towards the veil like a bee. At the moment when it broke through the veil, Lee Soo-jin’s forehead was strongly wrinkled.

“Are you okay?”

“My heart… it seems like two minutes is the limit at the longest.”

Lee Soo-jin, who had a small camera and energy connected, complained of heart pain. Lee Soo-jin bit her lips with a pale complexion in an instant and didn’t stop her ability even though she was in a cold sweat.

Lee Soo-jin’s body, who used her ability by enduring his pain, shook violently, grabbing her chest when about 2 minutes and 30 seconds passed. Choi Mi-jin, who hurriedly held Lee Soo-jin, who was falling, caught the small camera that came back slowly.

Choi Mi-jin, who connected the camera to the tablet PC, played the video. Seeing the video of the inside of the veil on the screen, Lee Joo-ha narrowed her eyes.

“That…”

A huge egg-shaped orange gem was embedded in the ground. In the centre of it, a red liquid fluttered like a flame.

The light emanating from the four jewels became a veil and encircled the museum.

“I couldn’t check inside the building. The energy is getting stronger.”

Lee Soo-jin, who barely came to her senses, added an explanation while watching the video. Obviously, as she got closer to the building, the image quality deteriorated sharply and started to cut off.

Hong Si-ah, who watched the phenomenon while touching her lips, said.

“It seems that the electronic devices are getting eaten up. It’s like entering the gate.”

This meant that the only place that could be confirmed even with Lee Soo-jin’s ability was outside the museum and the inside of the building was impossible.

“Wait, what is that?”

That was then. Something pure white was found on the ground near the artwork installed outside. At Lee Joo-ha’s question, Choi Mi-jin stopped playing and enlarged the part.

“…cat? Is that a cat?”

“It’s too small for a cat… weasel?”

“Isn’t that a dog? It doesn’t have a very long waist and has a lot of tail hair.”

“I’m pretty sure it’s not human. Did the stray animal accidentally get caught up in it?”

“Let’s take a closer look at that creature. It might have something to do with it.”

After ending the video, Choi Mi-jin moved her gaze back to the veil.

Thanks to Lee Soo-jin, she was able to find out an important fact. Four gems in the form of eggs. It must be the item that maintained that veil.

“You worked hard, Lee Soo-jin-ssi. From now on, we’ll have to figure out a way to break those gems.”

“We will do our best to help.”

“We may need a producer.”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

Choi Mi-jin, who handed the tablet PC to the headquarters staff, continued.

“Because there are a separate guild and a producer who has contacted me to help.”

* * *

Right before the wedding, Woo Seo-hyuk approached me in a separate room to check my outfit and put on white gloves.

“From now on, you will have to go alone.”

“That’s right, well.”

“When the Prince arrives at the top of the stairs, the other person will enter and climb the stairs in the same way. Even if I can’t go with you, I’ll always be nearby, so if something happens, please let me know with a wink. The knights will also protect the Prince.”

“Alright.”

Even if it was a fake wedding, I got a little nervous when I came this far.

Maybe this would be the first and last wedding in my life. When I thought about it that way, I was a bit dumbfounded and frustrated.

“Prince, the time has come.”

One of the servants announced the beginning of the wedding. Leaving Woo Seo-hyuk behind, I left the room and walked down the hallway to the castle’s central garden where the wedding was held.

Under the bright midday sunlight, a garden decorated with pure white decorations and colourful flowers unfolded. When I appeared, dozens of bands started playing and petals were scattered in front of me.

Dozens of round party tables decorated with flowers were prepared on either side of the flower road and the packed aristocrats applauded me. Among them were Cheon Sa-yeon, Park Geon-ho, Kwon Jeong-han, and Min Ah-rin.

When I reached the stage by stepping on the high white stairs, Ha Tae-heon followed. Ha Tae-heon, dressed in a white suit just like me, wore a white veil over his head instead of a cloak.

I whispered to Ha Tae-heon, who climbed the stairs with dignified steps and arrived safely next to me.

“Is everything all right?”

We hadn’t been able to see each other for three days as we had both been so busy with wedding preparations since we last met in the drawing room. Ha Tae-heon, who heard my question, answered quietly with his head bowed.

“Yeah. What about you?”

“Of course, I’ve been safe and well.”

In front of the officiant who conducted the wedding in a reverent voice, Ha Tae-heon whispered and chatted with me.

“As soon as the wedding is over, the space may change. You have to be careful.”

“Then, there’s little chance we can prevent it this time.”

Certainly… In Hansel and Gretel, not only Cheon Sa-yeon but also I lost my mind and moved to Cinderella, so it was uncertain whether we would be able to prevent the new fairy tale even if the marriage was over.

‘I couldn’t find Fox either.’

Fox was with Kim Woo-jin’s clone. The clone must have disappeared naturally as Kim Woo-jin lost consciousness, so he would have been left alone in the end.

As I let out a soft sigh at the thought of Fox, Ha Tae-heon slowly grabbed my hand.

“It’s okay. That white guy is small and has the ability to invisibility, so he’ll be good at hiding.”

“Ha Tae-heon-ssi…”

I was moved by Ha Tae-heon, who understood and comforted me without having me explain it. Meanwhile, the end of the ceremony was approaching.

“I sincerely congratulate you on the marriage of two noble people, stars of the kingdom. Lastly, you can kiss with love.”

“Pardon?”

What? What do you want me to do?

When I questioned in surprise, the officiant also widened his eyes and was bewildered.

“Ki, kiss him with love.”

I looked at the officiant who was bewildered and demanded again, and then I quickly turned my head to check my back.

Min Ah-rin, Park Geon-ho, and Kwon Jeong-han watched the wedding with exciting expressions. And Cheon Sa-yeon’s face, with his arms crossed and smiling strangely, came into view one after another.

“……”

Cheon Sa-yeon’s smile grew a little darker when my eyes met him. But the gaze was surprisingly cold. I got goosebumps.

My whole body stiffened in the awkward situation that I suddenly had to kiss Ha Tae-heon in front of everyone.
