Chapter 17

Inheritance.

It has a variety of meanings, but in The World of Eternity, it's specifically talking about the process of taking on skills or items that belonged to others.

Seol's 'inheritance' was similar to what his summons had done before but it was also a bit different.

"Krgh..."

"H-Hey! Are you alright?!"

Bill rushed to support Seol.

He could only see the white in Seol's eyes as his neck tensed up even harder.

Bill could tell even at a glance how painful this was.

Seol, right now, was looking at his first character's memories.

Hum...

Hum...

These memories were surprisingly real.

Seol felt like he was in a fast train, looking at his memories, like it was the scenery outside of a window.

'My brain... feels like it's going to fry!'

But even so, he kept remembering the things he had forgotten.

He remembered how Bill looked 20 years ago. He remembered the photo of Bill's granddaughter he received. He even received Snowman's memory from early childhood to adulthood.

He received all of his first piece's memory.

'So it was because of this.'

This was the reason why he felt like he had gaps in his memory.

Seol realized the reason while going over his first piece's memory.

'It's because... my pieces kept it.'

Portions of Seol's memories weren't in his head. It was in his 30 pieces.

The various knowledge that he had was jumbled up in his head.

His memories were like a ball of yarn that had been knotted up. Some memories were clear and visible but a few memories felt like they had to be properly untied for him to understand it.

It was painful trying to take in all of his piece's experience at once. It also made him feel uncomfortable like he was looking through someone else's memory.

'Don't tell me... Will I have to experience this every time I run into the other pieces I gave up too?"

The novel thing was that Seol's memories of Snowman, unlike the memories of his other pieces, felt like it was always his now.

'The memories I recover... become mine.'

At least that's the only conclusion he could draw right now.

"Gasp... Gasp..."

"Are you alright? Have you calmed down?"

"I-I'm fine."

It was a short moment but Seol felt like he traveled back in time for that moment.
