Chapter 38: The Realm of Time History

Fuwelle, lying beside me, fell asleep shortly after lying down. I lay next to her, not daring to change my posture. She truly treated me like a hug pillow, holding me so tightly that I couldn’t break free… So be it.

About half an hour later, I felt someone calling me, but I couldn’t hear clearly.

“Chuye!”

It took a while to make it out—it was Magic Box calling me from within my mind.

The moment I heard clearly, my spiritual power was abruptly pulled into the spiritual world that had been filled with water.

“Hoo~ I used every means to pull you in. I’m really curious why your mind has an entire spiritual world of water…”

The humanoid girl Magic Box had transformed into floated before me, complaining. I remembered the Magic Box that took away the green light—was its name Ashiya?

“Um… Magic… no, Ashiya, why didn’t you tell me about my mission in this world?”

“Eh? You know my name! I see, that guy told you… It’s not that I wouldn’t tell you; I just don’t want to go back to the divine realm.”

I was a bit angry. “But I want to go back!”

“That place is not… Anyway, I’m not going back! No, I brought you here to show you my ability.”

“Hey! But I— Eh? Ability? Don’t you have very little magic? How can you use it?”

She suddenly smiled eerily.

“Hahahahaha! The magic I’ve stored is even more than that person you met before!”

“Then why didn’t you talk to her yourself?”

“Because… because… if I possessed your body, I would… would…”

She couldn’t answer for a moment, putting a hand over her eye.

“Aren’t you afraid I might do something to you? So, worried I wouldn’t be able to resist, I didn’t possess your body. Pretty considerate, right?”

“Eh? Really?” I looked at her with suspicion. She seemed a bit guilty.

“Fine, I just can’t do it… Okay, no more nonsense. Let me take you to experience my ability!”

“Eh?”

Suddenly the water around us receded, and a white light shone, blinding me. When the light faded, we were on a noisy street. She wore ragged clothes like mine, kneeling by the roadside.

“Hey, this place…”

She turned around, excitedly grabbing my hand. She really looked exactly like me, except her hair was black while mine was silver-white.

“I haven’t used this ability in so long, and it actually worked this time!”

“Hey! Explain first—what is this?”

Just then someone threw a round coin into a broken bowl in front of us.

“This place is the Realm of Time History I recorded. Back when I was an angel, my mission was to record human history, put it into a thing called a ‘Mirror Bottle,’ and hand it to the Archangel. No, not exactly… Anyway, this place is simulated by magic. We’re just playing roles inside, understand?”

She said so much at once that I was a bit dazed. Leaning back, I really could touch the wall beside me.

“Is this some kind of enhanced VR?”

“VR?”

“What role are we playing?”

“Twin beggars!”

She actually said it without shame.

“What period of history is this?”

“I don’t know. I made this based on where you most want to go. But don’t worry, time here is faster than outside. A hundred years here is only about an hour in the original world, so we don’t have to worry about what happens outside.”

She patted her chest, looking reassured.

“But… how do we go back?”

“We have to live out the whole life of this character before we can leave.”

“…”

“I…”

Suddenly a huge shadow covered us. We turned around to see a massive carriage. A young woman stepped down, wearing an flowing green dress, silver-gray hair, and a deep purple gem on her chest. She was beautiful.

She crouched down and looked at us.

“How about coming back with me, you two little ones?”

[That’s the Young Master’s mother.]

“Ah?”

Her words shocked me. This…
