Part 2
(Side Story)
Episode 41
Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid appeared unable to continue speaking, his sense of identity thrown into confusion.
I understood his disorientation.
Perhaps my husband’s memories had surfaced within him?
Whenever my memories intertwined with those of Margaret Rose Flone in this place, I too often found myself at a loss for words.
Of course, having already experienced Lee Jin-ju, I adapted more easily than Enoch did.
“That’s supposed to be me from a parallel dimension…?”
At Young Kaiden’s incredulous voice, my colleague Kaiden casually raised his hand.
“Yeah. That’s right. Hello, kid.”
“Who the hell are you calling a kid?”
Diego restrained Young Kaiden as he lunged forward in a fit of rage.
In my eyes, he was definitely just a kid. Our Kaiden had already transcended such things.
Kaiden swept his cloak back once before approaching Young Kaiden, who was held back by Diego, and gently tapped his shoulder.
“I would have preferred to possess your body directly, but this exalted form of mine has restrictions when leaving the fixed dimension.”
$%#$&%
An absolutely torrential stream of curses erupted from Young Kaiden afterward, but I’ll spare you the details.
“Anyway, I’ve said what I came to say. I’m leaving now. I’ll be watching over you, so don’t worry too much, Margaret Rose Flone. You be careful too.”
Kaiden spread his index and middle fingers to shield his eyes, then pointed at me and Enoch in turn.
Of course, the meaning behind pointing at me and pointing at Enoch were different.
It was somewhat reassuring to know he was watching over us.
Though it seemed there was nothing he could do if I lost the keyring or ventured into an area where communication was impossible, like last night.
‘Thanks to him coming to find me directly, things worked out well for me.’
Traveling to another dimension without possession apparently places severe strain on the body.
Even for Kaiden, who was a transcendent being, this held true. Or rather, as a transcendent, Kaiden faced even harsher restrictions.
I had received an explanation about these restrictions when we first decided to travel through parallel dimensions.
“Margaret Rose Flone. I’ll be waiting for you in our world.”
Then Kaiden left a kiss upon my forehead.
“…!”
I was startled and touched my forehead. I hadn’t expected that—it was a bit embarrassing.
It felt like the kind of kiss one gives a younger sibling left at the waterside.

Aahhh!
Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid’s obsession level climbed even higher.
As this unfolded, wind began swirling in a circular pattern around the floor where Kaiden stood.
The wind spiraled around Kaiden as its center point.
I watched a Magic Circle being inscribed in the midst of it.
Kaiden waved his hand at me.
I waved back in return, feeling an overwhelming sense of longing. I wanted to follow him.
I want to go home. I really want to see Enoch and the children.
Just as such desperate thoughts consumed me, I suddenly snapped back to my senses.
No. This isn’t the time for such thoughts.
I forcibly erased the things I wanted to see from my memory.
The Enoch here is also the real Enoch. I mustn’t forget that.
After Kaiden vanished, chaos erupted.
“So what you said before was true? You really came from another parallel dimension?”
Starting with Yuanna Lucy’s question,
“I’m curious whether I exist in that place. Surely the Prince of Asdal there is just as magnificently charming as I am?”
The Prince of Asdal asked a question befitting himself, and
“What the hell is this bastard, really claiming to be me from another dimension?”
Young Kaiden, who denied his own existence, and
“Do you possess knowledge of a method to escape this Island?”
Diego Bastian Vilterheim, who posed the most rational and practical question,
“Then you’re not the real Margaret Rose Flone?”
And Archbishop Luzef, whose first question concerned my true identity.
It was absolute pandemonium.
“Everyone, please calm down.”
I calmed them while carefully choosing my words, reflecting on what my comrade Kaiden had told me.
“From now on, we’re going to escape this Island.”
Jenas is dead.
There had been a violent confrontation with Jenas—why else would only Kaiden have arrived here?
A Kaiden who had transcended would never have retreated before Jenas.
“There’s no guarantee Jenas won’t exist in other dimensions. There are restrictions, but if necessary, he can overcome them and come here. So call me when you’re truly in danger, when you need help. That scum Jenas—I can kill him across multiple dimensions as many times as it takes, for the sake of humanity itself.”
As Kaiden spoke those words, his expression made it clear he genuinely wanted to kill every version of Jenas across all dimensions with his own hands.
Though he said “for the sake of humanity,” in the dimension where Enoch’s soul fragments were scattered, that dimension would cease to exist once the fragments were recovered.
I had crossed the threshold of death countless times just to kill Jenas.
But thanks to Kaiden, who had surpassed Jenas’s level, that problem was no longer difficult.
It was fortunate, yet… something felt strange.
Jenas died so easily. It was this simple all along.
Something welled up and surged from deep within my chest…
‘No. Margaret. That’s not what matters right now. Don’t think useless thoughts.’
I spoke to the people waiting for my next words.
“Can you trust me and follow along?”
“Ha. That witch is blessed. Her counterpart from another dimension came and even saved her life.”
Young Kaiden muttered under his breath, continuing to repeat his disbelief that any of this made sense.
“Saved her life? Wasn’t I supposed to put her on the gallows the moment I escaped from here?”
Young Kaiden flinched at my question and closed his mouth again.
“If you weren’t that ‘witch,’ you’d have to reconsider. After all, I don’t know what you were like in that other dimension.”
Surprisingly rational.
If it were me, I would have been far too angry. To have my target for revenge stolen away.
Feeling somewhat sorry about that, I decided to understand him.
“Then let’s all go together.”
I nodded.
Young Kaiden had said that, but it was only his opinion—I had no idea what the others thought.
If the people here were the Margaret Rose Flone from another dimension, it might be fine, but the people outside would think differently.
“That boy won’t let you reach the gallows no matter what he has to do.”
“So Margaret Rose Flone, trust that young Crown Prince and let’s get out of here first. You need to clear your name, you said—that’s how we move to the next stage. We can’t prove anything on this Island.”
Kaiden’s voice brushed past my ear.
Right. Let’s get out first.
That’s when the next stage begins.
* * *
Parallel Dimension #05 – Acropolis, across its entire expanse.
4th Front Control Zone.
B-2, on the outskirts of Neo Asterion City.
A city that does not breathe. A dead city.
A man walked alone through those desolate, ruined streets.
Thud. Thud.
The military boots of Enoch Clinton, clad in black combat boots that rose to his calves, trampled across the scattered sand without hesitation.
The man, who had been walking with his hands in his pants pockets in a somewhat casual manner, suddenly spun half a turn in place and looked around.
“Hmm.”
A lollipop sat in the mouth of the man in armed Uniform, his face bearing a perplexed expression that didn’t match his attire.
“It should have been around here. Or not?”
He peered into the building with a thoughtful expression, playfully poking his head through a broken Window.
Then he spotted a broken Signboard that had fallen beneath the Window. It was a familiar Signboard.
“This is the place.”
He jumped out through the Window and examined the Signboard.
Yes. This was definitely where that woman had stood.
The Signboard fell the moment I fired my shots. It felt deliberately orchestrated.
Above all, she teleported, yet the Ability detection device didn’t activate at all. That meant it wasn’t an Ability.
“What exactly is that woman’s true Identity?”
An intense curiosity to see that woman again rose within me.
Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid stroked his chin with a crooked smile.
“She was exactly my type.”
Beautiful platinum blonde hair, a delicate face even from a distance, large eyes, and a sharp nose complemented by crimson lips.
She was so perfectly his type that even from afar, every exquisite feature was visible.
“I should begin a thorough Exploration.”
I will find her without fail.
