The Author's POV
Chapter 690
'Why did it happen again?'
While sitting on the curb in front of the bus with a perplexed expression on his face, Kevin mused to himself about the situation.
Why did they die again?
He did everything that he was supposed to do.
He didn't go toward the inner city and lead his parents away from home, yet, they still died.
This time by a road accident.
The demons weren't even responsible for their deaths.
Kevin's gaze lifted toward the clouds in the sky. Staring at the clouds that were moving ever so slowly in the sky, he had a sudden thought.
'...I wanted to spend more time with them.'

Bang―!
"Watch out, Kevin!"
Once more, Kevin watched as his parents threw their bodies over to protect him. This time, their bodies were completely severed in half, and blood spilt all over Kevin.
The expressions of helplessness and anguish that they displayed just prior to passing away left an indelible mark on his mind as he could only watch them die in front of him.
Crash―!
"Get behind me, Kevin!"
Booom―!
"Ahhhh!"
Unbeknownst to him, the same events kept happening over and over again with each and every one of his regressions.
Before Kevin even realized it, he had reached his twentieth regression, and for the twentieth time, both of his parents had passed away right before his very eyes.
This time, it was due to an explosion that occurred outside of the city.
'...Why?'
Kevin never managed to muster the required strength to come to the aid of his mother and father, no matter how many times he tried. Each time, they would suffer a horrible death, and he would be left all by himself once more.
The heaviness in his heart, which had been barely noticeable at first, became increasingly obvious with each and every one of his regressions, and it intensified with the passing of his parents in all of the regressions.
Over the course of those twenty regressions, he would have an immeasurably better chance of defeating Jezebeth, but despite his best efforts, he continued to fall short in every single one of his endeavours.
Kevin understood that it was only a matter of time before he could beat Jezebeth.
Be it one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand, or a million regressions...
Kevin had all the time in the world to accumulate experience and become stronger.
Jezebeth was still ahead of him by quite a lot, but Kevin knew that his time would come very soon.
...In those times, with each regression, he would spend more and more time with his parents. By the time the twentieth regression happened, he had spent at least a century of his life with them.
He pretty much knew them like the back of his hand.
...and it was because of this that he found it more difficult to part ways with them every five years since his birth.
After each of their deaths, he would experience a sharp pain, and the colour that had been slowly developing in his vision would slowly fade away.
