The secret of the past was finally revealed.

Seol Jihu’s face was full of confusion. He saw the vision and even her status window, but it was still hard to accept the truth.

Like Black Seol Jihu, Seo Yuhui bargained with Gula to deliver her emotions to her past self at the end of her previous life, on a much larger scale than Seol Jihu.

He recalled how on several occasions, he thought that her unconditional, almost unquestioning affection for him that began when they first met, was strange.

But he never imagined Seo Yuhui was a returnee like himself. She even lied to him about her age. She was a year younger than him, not older.

And to think Baek Haeju’s true identity was Yoo Seonhwa.

Seol Jihu felt dizzy. He shut his eyes tight and dropped his head. His heart was racing and his body was burning like a volcano.

It was fortunate that he had learned ‘Clear Mirror, Still Water,’ otherwise, he would have exploded here and now. He told himself over and over again to calm down and focus on the matter at hand.

“Jihu….”

Then he heard a choked whisper.

“You also have it… right? Future Vision….”

Seo Yuhui continued in a weak voice.

“I didn’t mean to deceive you.”

Seol Jihu barely opened his eyes and raised his head.

“I was going to tell you.”

Seo Yuhui’s lips were quivering and she looked like she was about to cry.

“I was going to tell you everything when the day you and I have been waiting for comes….”

“…”

“It’s true….”

Her earnest voice also sounded desperate as if begging him to believe in her.

But Seol Jihu didn’t reply. He couldn’t.

His eyes, which had momentarily gained light, dimmed again as he stared at Seo Yuhui.

And then….

FLASH!

Another vision began to unfold.

The Parasite Queen was simply dumbfounded. The muscles of her face rippled every time a new report came in.

—Unsightly...
