My Beautiful Disciples, I’m really not the Main Character!Chapter 186: Chapter 186: The Buried Past
Eren hadn’t recognised the Guardian he had summoned, but the Spirit Queen Felona was different.
In the Royal Palace, there were portraits of all previous spirit queens. And one of them was the most special out of all, which was hidden from public sight.
It was the portrait of the first spirit queen, who was also the first spirit to come into existence.
Even Felona found it hard to believe. It was impossible for a dead Spirit to come back to life.
Just the thought of it alone was absurd. But now this absurd possibility had become her reality as the First Spirit Queen was standing right before her eyes.
Her face looked completely identical to the first spirit queen depicted in the portrait. But that alone wasn’t enough to prove her identity.
What confirmed Felona’s suspicions was the fact that this Spirit could use her abilities even in the absence of the Spirit Essence. It was as if the entire realm listened to her as she was its true creator.
All the Spirits that came after her were just guests in this realm. They never became the true owner of this place. Even the future spirit queens never received the same acceptance from this realm that the First Spirit Queen had.
“Twenty Seventh… So much time has passed…” The Spirit Queen mumbled under her breath.
Sighing, she turned to Eren, her eyes revealing a semblance of recognition.
“I never believed those words. But to think that this was actually possible…” She said vaguely, confusing Eren even more.
What words was this woman talking about? What was actually possible? Was she talking about her return from death? That would have made sense.
But for some reason, he had a nagging feeling that it wasn’t the case.
She didn’t speak further, instead turning towards the flaming storm that was stopped by her barrier. It was as if she was able to see through the storm and look at the Necromancer who was standing on the other side.
There was sadness in her eyes as she looked at the person.
She just wanted him to live safe after her death, not thinking about vengeance. She never expected something like this to happen.
The man that she wanted to live happy and safe, couldn’t even find peace in death. He was forced to return, still having the same vengeance.
As for the Jar, it was given to him for his safety. And now this same thing had almost shoved all the spirits to hell.
“Are you sure you don’t want to take my offer? If you don’t, you might regret it a lot in the future…” The words she had heard a long time ago resurfaced in her mind.
She closes her eyes, reliving the buried past. It was as if all that happened just yesterday, when she was on the verge of death.
“Mother, is that person really…?” Estelina approached her mother, still scared of Eren after his last threat.
“That is right… She is the first spirit queen,” Felona confirmed. There was no other possibility.

Somehow, that human had managed to bring the first spirit queen back to life. Not only that, he even had a contract with her.
It all sounded so absurd. She couldn’t help but look at Eren, the person who had turned the impossible into possible.
There was one more thing that she didn’t understand. If he could summon the first spirit queen, did he really need to go that far for them to submit to him?
If he had summoned the Spirit Queen before, it was a given conclusion that all Spirits would have submitted. Then why? Why did he not reveal that? Just what was his goal?
The more she tried to understand Eren, the more incomprehensible he became.
She didn’t know that Eren was even more surprised than her about the identity of his guardian.
He had summoned the lover of that Lich? Was she going to betray him? Could a Guardian even betray him in the first place? He had so many questions in his mind.
Eren was at a loss of words. He was prepared for any eventualities, even if his guardian was somehow to betray him.
The first Spirit Queen raised her hand, establishing contact with the Jar which was made with her spirit essence. Even though so much time had passed, it was still a part of him.
The Jar became unstable and forcefully freed itself from the Necromancer, flying through the cloud of flames to land in his hand.
The Necromancer came flying down, chasing after the Jar. But his body completely froze when he saw the person that was holding the Jar.
“Impossible! It is impossible!” He exclaimed in disbelief, the flames in his empty eye socket becoming even stronger.
“How dare you?! How dare you use her face to fool me?!” He roared, for the first time appearing as if he had lost his composure.
He didn’t believe that she was actually back. In his eyes, it was a trick of the spirits. Even after her death, they were still using her face to trick him! These spirits had gone too far!
“All of you must die!” The Necromancer coldly stated. It was as if he had actually lost his mind at that moment.
He mindlessly rushed to attack the First Spirit Queen, who was a fake in his eyes. However, the moment he neared her, the spirit queen crushed the Jar in her hand.
A single tear streamed down her cheeks as she watched the Lich come to a sudden halt.
Eren silently watched the Spirit Essence of this realm be freed of the Jar, which was broken by its creator.
‘Not bad. Not only did she not betray me, but she also noticed ‘it’ without any help.’
This was the reason that he was confident about his ability to defeat the Lich.
If it was any other Necromancer, he would have been more hesitant. But thanks to the identification, he had noticed the weakness of the Necromancer.
It was a weakness that he brought with him after all.
