chapter 16
03 : Today, I suffer and live. As usual
“Tsk. They run away right away.”
A woman with long hair hanging down her gray hair. Maehwa blinked her eyes as she felt the presence disappear in an instant in her hospital room.
I thought he would run away in the first place, and since he became interested in that boy in the exorcism hall full of rotten tangerines, the next best thing for that boy was to hide himself.
The best thing is for her to come into the academy and be under her protection, but she doesn’t want to, so what can I do?
So she took all of her money in her present purse and advised her boy to leave.
Well, even though her reputation as the strongest exorcist in Korea was her entire fortune, the 50 million won she had right now was her entire fortune, so she was broke to the point where it was difficult to even buy a cup of makgeolli.
It’s not like a day or two without money. It was her fault that the Exorcism Agency had become interested in that boy, so she thought it was an apology and decided to pass it on.
“Do you think they want to change their future?”
Maehwa laughed ferociously, baring her fangs like her beast.
She changes the future she sees. A miraculous act that is theoretically possible but difficult to accomplish in practice.
They are now blinking their eyes to take the boy, find out how he was forced to change, and order him to keep their breath.
These are very ugly old people. He was younger than himself, the oldest person in the world, and yet so ugly. Maehwa smiled bitterly as she waved her pacifier tied to her chest cloth with her fingertips.
Her skiII is ‘Flower of Eternal’. She never gets old, and unless someone kiIIs her, she will never die.
She’s seen the world change hundreds of times thanks to this f*cking curse-like skiII that prevents even the aging of the soul.
After fighting as an exorcist for a long time, she gained the power to see her future beyond her intuition.
And what she gained this power and saw was the destruction of a government agency named the Exorcism Agency in this country.
This institution, which existed even before this country took the name of Korea during the enlightenment period, was initially a place where people who tried to protect the people of this country against the calamity of evil spirits gathered.
However, like all things, it rots and rots before a long time.
A place full of rotten tangerines that are still trying to trample and use young sprouts for their own benefit, with only the authority that has existed for a long time.
Maehwa saw their demise. All of those who are called the head of the Exorcism Agency are torn to shreds and die.
She saw the end of this country when she saw that this country fell into great chaos in the face of a great curse, flames soared from all sides and evil spirits raged.
I don’t know if it’s just that the country is perishing, but I saw the deaths of all the people living in this country in that scene.
Wanting to change the future she saw, she forcibly took away her authority to gather and teach children with her psychic powers, which was originally what the Ministry of Exorcism had to do, and set up her school.
That is the beginning of the unprecedented name of Korea’s best exorcist training academy.
In the face of an unknown future, the Exorcism Agency seemed to be trying to do something, but it is the same as it is now.
They are not changing or taking measures to prevent the huge curse, but they are trying to protect themselves by taking a child who is said to have changed the future.
Isn’t it funny? The people of the Exorcism Office do not want to prevent the destruction of the country and the death of people, but only their own death.
Those who have long forgotten their natural attitude. Maehwa would rather commit suicide than grow old.
“- hehehe, but am I also greedy for that child?”
Yes, Maehwa was greedy for that child.
When she saw the future of being kiIIed by slanderers, she selected only those who could save the boy in her own way and set them up near the barrier so that they could go to help at any time.
Mostly those who have certain skiIIs and special skiIIs to protect people from curses.
Her attempts to change the future she saw alone have all failed so far.
Since she didn’t anticipate that the non-radiators would be waiting in advance in the park inside the barrier, her preparations were useless.
The boy survived against the ill-wishers on his own and without anyone’s help.
It was even more surprising since the opponent was an A-class non-radiation three-person kiIIer. If he had come to the academy, his talent and power would have bloomed in a most beautiful way.
The level of growth shown just by overcoming that one crisis is truly phenomenal.
As the dean and founder of the academy, her talent and abilities are enough, but she can’t help but be greedy-
“That satani said it.”
The Miracle Child, who forged friendship with a divine spirit and received that power, almost succeeded in making Saetani, an A-level slandering evil spirit, become a Buddha.
Saetani suddenly said that she gave up even her Buddhahood to save the child and left a single word.
“A friend like me. Should I help you, huh?”
What does that mean? A child who suffered the same pain as you? Or literally means friend? Or is there something else?
The child who becomes the source of the possessed body Saetani is dead, and the trash parent who poses as the exorcist who created her new Tani is dead.
No one but the boy himself knows the meaning of those words, but-
No matter what the secret is lurking, her intuition reached the level of her future foresight and said that the boy, along with the miracle child, was one of the keys to changing the predestined future.
“Then, I will have to think about how to attract them in the future…” ….”
I’m going to chase and contact the child at the Exorcism Hall. What are they doing?
There is no legal way to forcefully take the child away. Even if they tried to take them by force, didn’t they cut off all those with power and ability because they only valued connections and connections?
At most, the boy will not be dragged away by the exorcists working at the Exorcism Agency. Even though he put pressure on himself, there’s no way a kid who takes out a knife and listens to it in a modest way can’t get tired of those things.
That’s why Maehwa slowly blinked and thought about how to bring the boy to the academy.
****
Let’s talk a little depressing.
About how my friend was murdered by brother-in-law.
My friend’s house wasn’t very wealthy. Still, he had no problems living with people.
The work began when her aunt told her that she was not feeling well and that she was not eating well.
Ah, the fact that she couldn’t even eat her meal didn’t mean she was seriously ill.
It’s just because I’m old, I can’t help but have a bad place as a human being.
I just couldn’t eat well because I had problems with my teeth.
My friend was also looking for a new job after quitting his job, but it wasn’t that he didn’t have any money right away, he had money he had saved while working in the past.
But my friend wanted to give her aunt a new set of teeth.
If possible, he said he would like to work hard and buy me a massage chair and delicious food.
That’s why he doesn’t have a job right now, so he said he would save money by doing part-time jobs.
Because I’m a guy who’s done all sorts of part-time jobs to earn money, I recommended my friend a job that’s worth doing.
He worked diligently, regardless of how tired he was. He ended up working a part-time delivery job until midnight.
No matter how many times I think about it, it is unfair and makes me angry.
I hope you don’t step forward to do the last delivery that someone else left behind.
I hope you don’t go out of your way to save an unknown woman who is entangled in gangster gangs. Was he alive?
…… No Sipal, even if you think about it a hundred times, that dog who kiIIed the person who tried to help him without knowing grace is bad.
In the first place, even though I was a bully, I didn’t mean to swear or rape him with a knife.
I was just kidding and yelling at you to play with me. Is that a reason to kiII even if it’s a bit f*cked up? Even high school students?
Anyway, the reason why I saved up 10 million won to visit her aunt is the same reason my friend was working.
To save up money for the lady to pay for her teeth or whatever. As her friend joked while working part-time, she said she would collect 1,000 with this.
I know. Stupid thing But he gave me a hand as I was walking around the back alley with my body thrown into this world.
Even though I’m still a kid on the outside, I told him I was a man inside, so he believed that and told me he was a friend-
How can I forget the will-like words of that stupid fool?
So I tried to collect 1,000 money on behalf of that bastard and give it to the lady.
I thought that at least a human bastard who had such good intentions should do that kind of work.
I collect money just by hunting evil spirits and completing hunting quests.
I thought that even 1,000 money could be raised quickly- It’s been a month since my friend’s funeral.
I swallowed dry saliva at the sight of the lady in the distance, feeling tension that I had never felt before.
As before, the lady was busy working at her fruit shop and welcoming people.
She used to greet people with a bright smile, and the smile of her aunt, who was told that she was a really good laugh, felt somewhat empty.
The last place I saw her aunt was at her funeral home.
If her chews wearing her suits inform the outside of her friend’s murder, she’s threatened that she will be dangerous together.
Shouldn’t her motherf*ckers have been soaked as well?
I bruised my immovable leg as if I was tied to something in my seat, but I lost my temper with a dry face on my body that didn’t want to move.
Why am I like this? I didn’t just collect 10 million, but enough money to repay the grace she received.
As I let out a deep sigh, I felt frustrated because I couldn’t figure out why I was doing this.
My friend wasn’t my only friend. This is not the first time that he has offered words of consolation to parents who are left alone after their child has died.
It’s not the first time that a friend died and I said goodbye to my friend’s parents and cried together.
But now it is difficult to go and talk to Mrs. Lee. Why
Am I feeling guilty for not even going to see the face of the woman who was left alone on the pretext of saving money for this month?
I feel weak, weak, and tired. Want to sleep. That’s guilt…… ? Or puberty?
“…… No, you’re hungry.”
I can’t help it when I’m hungry.
Whether it’s puberty or guilt, let’s fill our stomach first and think about it.
If you think about it, it would be a hassle to suddenly go and hand over money to a lady who is working hard.
It would be better to visit and say hello after work.
Considering that you worked at the vegetable shop in the morning and left work in the afternoon, it’s getting close to the end of the day, so let’s go then.
Thought so, I headed for the nearest restaurant.
Usually, I would have bought the cheapest one at the store and disposed of it in a nearby alley where no one walks around.
I felt like going to a proper store today and wanting to eat something.
It’s rare to go to a store instead of a cheaper one, but sometimes this is a good stress reliever.
I ran my hand over my face once and headed for the nearest Chinese restaurant.
Perhaps it was past lunchtime, there were few people, and the store was a reasonable size, and it was a place where classical music could be heard.
Looking at the menu board on the wall, the prices don’t seem too expensive- I’m going to eat here.
I sat down thinking that. I ordered a bowl of jajangmyeon and waited for the menu to appear.
While doing so, in my head, I went just in time for the lady to leave work, and she was thinking about what to say first.
I will visit you naturally and see you after a long time. Are you healthy? Shall I say no that’s kinda
Then should I come and say I’m sorry and apologize? Yeah that seems right
To be honest, the lady must have had the hardest time after her friend died, but it was a bit like running out without checking her safety as soon as the funeral was over.
At least she should’ve taken that damn head off and told the lady that she caught and kiIIed the b*tch that kiIIed her friend.
Now that the money I have set for my goal has been collected, I am now thinking about what I should have done before money.
As expected, humans are cunning and negative creatures. I rolled my eyes after marching the bitter taste in my mouth with the water in the glass the store employee brought me.
My eyes suddenly noticed that someone was sitting in the seat next to me.
What is it? I couldn’t hear footsteps or anything. When did I sit there?
At the same time as a slight surprise, I felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu at the figure of the person sitting next to me, and felt my chin tighten.
Once, the person sitting next to me was a woman.
A man sitting cross-legged on a wooden chair at a Chinese restaurant, his chin resting on his arm against the table, seemingly not caring about his pelvic health.
The figure is so beautiful that even though there is a picture of a half-split cat hanging in the background, I wonder if it is a photo shoot of some kind.
Wearing a women’s short-sleeved suit with a collar and riding pants that fit snugly as if showing off the line of the lower body, the woman had long, soft hair as if it were a natural perm.
Her looks are striking enough, but the most striking thing is her eyes.
A pupil lying horizontally like a goat’s eye is drawn in the center of her pitch-black pupil.
Her dog poop, from her grandmother to Green La, was far from normal, and those unusual eyes weren’t too strange.
There are demons, exorcists, and spirit-like beings, so what’s so special about goat eyes?
I would have just waited for the jajangmyeon to come out, forgetting that it was just that kind of eyes.
Beyond stabbing her in the head over and over again, the feeling of deja vu as if slapping me on the cheek was telling me that there was something about that woman.
While frowning, I kept looking through the ruins in my head to see if I had ever met someone with that appearance.
It reminded me of the time when her sister hadn’t slept for three days during her first vacation in a few months, and she was constantly thinking about something and touching her cell phone.
Only then did I remember the identity of the goat-eyed woman wearing her Bluetooth earphones in her ears.
It has a beautiful appearance, but its essence is a mixed blood, the offspring of an evil spirit and a human.
She is an impossible existence that cannot exist, but because of her singularity, she has the skiIIs to control even the most powerful evil spirits.
Is it because of that bloodline? She is hated by both humans and demons, and because she has lived a life that lacks the expression of being cursed, she hates this world.
The goal is to kiII all the so-called divine spirits in this world. The worst slanderer who wants a world where only humans and evil spirits exist and kiII each other to survive. Its name is Gwi-tae.
In this game, an evil man called the king of evil spirits who controls the movements of the main character behind the scenes, leads various incidents, and opposes even the brother-in-law.
My brother said that this is the cause of most of the incidents the main character experiences—the hidden heroine in this game.
The moment I realized that the reason I didn’t eat or sleep for 3 days and went crazy as if I was carrying all the troubles in the world was to open that hidden heroine route.
When I saw my younger brother, I thought that no matter how young he was, he was still a beast, so I strangled him with a cell phone charger.
At the same time, I also glanced at Gwi-tae’s illustration. The woman sitting next to me now resembles the illustration I saw then.
So right now- the final boss of this world is eating next to me.
“hahahaha.”
What do you mean? I blankly stared at the ceiling and waited for Jajangmyeon.
Whether the person sitting next to you is the president or a mafia boss, isn’t it more important than the jjajangmyeon I paid for?
I yawned at that thought. It was early afternoon.
