THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW

Joonghyuk's life was bleak and thorny. He was doomed to walk this alone as a regressor. Despite the many allies he has, every regress he would make— it was just him. Force to carry the burden of the past or perhaps the future.

But such things have long been a distant thought for Joonghyuk. He knows the life he will have the moment he agreed to be a regressor. His sword and knowledge of the past were only his true companions.

So he doesn't understand when— all he knows is that he wants to try harder for this regression. He had found his will, not just to mercilessly swung his blade. No, he has his allies now. They share his burden.

And most of all...

He had found his guiding light.

The beacon to his bleak and dreary world, the one to many sources of hope.

"Why are you glaring at me?"

Liridona's soft voice cut the silence drape around them. Yoo Joonghyuk looked back at his blade and continued sharpening it.

"It's nothing..."

He wanted to say something, but he couldn't find the words when it came to her. She simply leaves him speechless. She was the reprieve he didn't know he needed.

His solace

Joonghyuk can't believe he found his home. For a man as rough and callous as him, he somehow finds softening for a person. Death and carnage surround him, it's unbecoming of his bleak life.

But does it matter?

"... you're sharpening your scabbard?"

Joonghyuk's gaze snapped and saw his sword laying forgotten in front of him, his scabbard at his hold. Embarrassed, he didn't meet her gaze and picked up the sword.

Liridona laughed at him before standing up at her position. She sat down beside him and grabbed his face, her eyes soft and gentle.

"Is something troubling you my love?"

Yoo Joonghyuk's breath was caught in his throat. Her eyes are mesmerizing, shining towards his deepest part of the soul. Making his heart pound and leave a serene feeling.

"I can't believe I have you."

His voice was soft and silent, mellow even. Liridona's eyes widened before a wide smile encompasses her lips. He brought his face down to her to meet her lips. He softly pulls away and looks face, his gaze was gentle.

"Me neither... Let's stay this way forever."

I was lost in the dark
With my lonely, broken heart
Then you came along
You took me home
And made me your own

I badly miss this book, Yoo Joonghyuk was my comfort character back in quarantine. Then I suddenly miss him, so I'm just gonna put this here. 🤧❤️‍🩹
