#Returner’s Notepad Episode 1
spectrum
Those who practice magic on the continent each have a special color.
This magical talent is called “Spectrum.”
Why is it that even if they use the same magic power, some people control golems the size of houses, some people create living creatures, and some people are just trash… … .
Since it is a very important factor in evaluating the magic power itself, people with crappy spectra get a lot of sympathy.
Just like me, lying here in an abandoned factory.
“hey. “My spectrum is really a notepad?”
■ │
A pure white window on the retina. This empty blank page, visible only to me, records and stores the sentences I think. Once saved, the content can be recalled anytime, anywhere.
So, it is “notepad”.
This is my spectrum.
Fuck you.
“You said you wrote a diary because you had nothing to do with it? Notepad like X. “It won’t help you until you die.”
Thanks to you, I die. To be exact, right before I die, but that’s it.
I have no feeling below my neck right now. My stomach is split and blood is gushing out, but there is no pain. This means that the cervical spine has been completely severed.
Is it good because it doesn’t hurt?
—You ungrateful fly.
A low sound that gnaws at the vocal cords echoes through the empty factory.
I wonder if it would be like this if a wolf could talk, but in reality, it is a werewolf that has a human body but only the limbs and limbs are altered to look like an animal.
That bastard is Spectrum. “Beast Painting” or something.
“For a fly, the treatment is too much.”
On the other hand, I am a “notepad.”
You can take notes anytime, anywhere. Even right before he falls, you can still talk about that guy behind his back, right?
It’s something to be very proud of.
I asked the dog, no, the wolf.
“Did the chairman order it?”
-under. Do you think the Chairman cares about you? A bug like you?
“Maybe a little bit. I know ‘Libra’ well, right? “I’m also from Libra.”
Libra. The most prestigious family on the continent and the current chairman.
The owner of the power who can turn the Gert Mountains into plains with a single word is my enemy.
—… … Zion Askal. You overestimate yourself. He doesn’t even know.
It was my most personal grudge.
They made me an orphan. It distorted my life too much.
“What don’t you know? “The only person who knows Libra as well as I do is that lame person, right?”
Then the wolf straightened his back. A lot of hair rose up on the guy’s face. His snout became longer, and his pupils turned yellow.
It was a complete werewolf.
—Don’t be mistaken. You have never been an enemy of Libra. It wasn’t even a threat.
“Ugh. Okay, let’s say that’s the case. “Because I’m sick.”
I had a brain tumor at the age of nine, which I somehow overcame, leukemia at the age of thirteen, and miraculously, I somehow survived, and even cancer at the age of eighteen… … My life is so strange.
“Oh right. Have you ever seen the Chairman?”
—… … .
silence.
It probably means negativity.
“doesn’t exist? “You served me for 7 years and never saw me?”
—Shut up.
“Well, I’m the type of person who can count on one finger the number of times I’ve participated in extracurricular activities in my life. “I have three.”
—… … Three times?
The wolf’s brow twitched. He seemed quite curious.
“uh. Once by chance when I graduated from elementary school. Once on the day I was elected as a member of the National Assembly. “Once on the first day I appeared in Congress.”
—How was it, Chairman?
The wolf’s tongue is hanging out. The eyes widen slightly and the tail wags.
This is a dog that only cares about its owner.
“hmm… … .”
I was lost in reminiscence for a moment.
Those days when I witnessed the Chairman. Those scenes where I faced the owner of a family I had loathed for the rest of my life.
“well.”
It seems so defeating to have these feelings even at the moment of being killed, but I have no choice but to admit it.
“I can’t express it in words.”
There is something about her that goes beyond beauty… … . She had a mystique about her that seemed to have some sacred value.
“It’s like religion. So, even those of you who are fanatically loyal understand to some extent.”
—… … That life must be satisfying.
“You’re being damned.”
My eyes widened at the wolf’s bullshit.
I’m satisfied, damn it, but of course I’m not satisfied.
There is no way for a person to be satisfied with living as a host for a disease rather than as a human being, and to spend his entire life fighting the disease and then fading away.
If God really exists, he will curse you until you die.
Purr-!
The wolf blew his nose.
—One way or another, you have tackled the impossible. The topic of Paris bothered Taesan.
“… … .”
That may be true.
My own desperate actions, attempts to uncover Libra’s corruption and bring their crimes to the surface.
They were just snacks for a drinking party.
The public quickly forgot, or even did not want to remember, the bloody voices of those killed by Libra, and my colleagues turned away from me.
I knew from the beginning that it was a battle I couldn’t win.
“… … “But I did find something useful in the end.”
—You still haven’t come to your senses. I would have said make no mistake. Your death is the will of the Chairman’s Office. Chairman, you are a piece of dust-
“Okay, okay.”
I tilted my neck back. She leaned her head against the cold concrete wall.
Somehow, a vain wind blew in from the broken windows of the factory.
Then, he smiled brightly and opened his teeth.
“Do you see this?”
—… … .
A white crystal placed in my front teeth. The wolf’s eyes narrow as he looks at it.
It is a prototype of a new magic synthetic material developed by Libra—“Perion.”
The source and nucleus of the highest level physical magic enhancer that will soon be mass-produced.
—What are you asking me to do now?
“Give me some praise. “I stole it hard.”
In fact, the reason I die here is because of this.
If I had held my breath, I would have lived about a month longer.
So, this means that life only lasts one month at most anyway.
The cancerous lump in my Danjeon is already destroying my entire body.
“What, Perion, a new magical substance that amplifies essence? Does it help you conquer the dungeon? The PR is so damn bad, how many thousands of people did you kill to make this? “You also conducted clinical experiments on homeless people and orphans, you bastards.”
Ah!
I bit into Perion and ate it.
Chop-! Chop-!
I chewed it proudly and swallowed it.
Although it is an amplifier, there is no feeling of something filling up. It was clearly a dose far beyond the lethal dose, but my body felt slightly hot and my eyes were spinning.
Oh, maybe it’s because all the nerves were cut.
I spat at the guy.
“Tsk – you bastard. “This is a loss of 1 billion Ren for Libra.”
—… … Perion prototypes are available at each continental location. This means that ten more of the same thing were made.
“… … .”
—You don’t think we are like you.
I looked blankly at the wolf. He also looked into my eyes.
A sigh boiled up from within.
“Ah, it looks like shit. “You fucking bastards.”
In the end, I couldn’t do anything until the end.
Let alone taking revenge on those guys, it was a fly that couldn’t even make the slightest scratch, and as this wolf cub said, it was only slightly itchy and annoying.
That’s just about it.
—… … .
“What are you teasing? Just kill it. “My tongue is slowly twisting.”
Sreung— He sharpened his claws. Moonlight seeped into the sharp surface.
“hey. You son of a bitch. Just in case. Later, when you meet someone called the Chairman. “Please tell me this.”
I laughed quietly.
“please… … “I hope you can survive alone and live well in this fucking world.”
The guy’s fingers flashed under his eyes.
It had stabbed me in the neck.
이 개새끼가.
