My Girlfriend Is a Shaman

43 – Past Life Experience #5

Princess Hongryeon’s atmosphere was unusual. The soft voice calmed down. Princess Hongryeon muttered to herself as she stared at Sarah.

「Eunryeong. After trying this world like that, you ended up going down to this world? Just leaving me out? “It’s so disgusting that I’m dying.”

The inside of the palace became cool. This time I wasn’t talking about atmosphere. In fact, the surrounding temperature was dropping like winter. For some reason, the flowers blooming in the palace yard withered. It was as if winter had really come.

“Why are you suddenly angry?”

「You don’t know because you were reincarnated and lost your memories. “You won’t feel sorry for me for losing my younger brother.”

Just from the outside, Princess Hongryeon was angry at Sarah.

She seemed angry at herself, perhaps the fact that Sarah was her reincarnation.

Does it feel like she lost her family because her younger sister, who she lived with, was reincarnated in this world?

“Jinwoo, why is she like that?”

“I think I’m angry because of you…”

“There’s so much fuss about what I did.”

We weren’t the only ones who were embarrassed. The soldiers and maids inside the palace also saw Princess Hongryeon and did not know what to do with her. One of the maids behind Princess Hongryeon carefully opened her mouth.

「Hey, Princess Hongryeon. “I don’t know what’s going on, but please calm down my anger.”

「Ha… Do you think I’m not angry? “I heard Eun-ryeong ran away from home?”

「Princess Eunryeong did not run away from home. She is here.」

「Not now, but later!」

It was the moment when Princess Hongryeon slightly raised her voice. The soldiers and maids in her palace crouched down like frogs on the spot. She said she was sorry to everyone, but she was crawling around. Now, it was just us and Princess Hongryeon standing in the palace grounds.

It didn’t feel good.

I spoke to Sarah.

“It’s better to just run away and not touch her. That’s a goddess. Even if it’s a dream, if you mess with it, you won’t see any good results.”

“Then what about the wing clothes…?”

“What’s wrong with winged clothes now? God is angry?”

“…It’s a shame.”

Sarah clicked her tongue and expressed regret.

Originally, we planned to steal Princess Hongryeon’s wing clothes. However, it has been confirmed to some extent that Princess Hongryeon can use her powers as a goddess even in her dreams. If the weather has become cold as if it were the middle of winter and the flowers have withered, what is it but power?

“Let’s go!”

Sera held my hand and flew through the sky with the power of her wings. I was also led by Sarah to fly in the sky.

What we chose was retreat.

I was escaping by being forced to wake up from a dream. Anyway, Princess Hongryeon over there was also a person in my dream. When we woke up from the dream of her past life, she disappeared like a mirage and could not harm us.

Sera and I soared into the sky.

When I looked down, I saw a tall five-story building. It was a good building to hit with your body.

“It’s a Jeonggak. Let’s put our heads in the Jeonggak.”

“Good.”

The method of forcibly waking up from a dream was simple. If it were real, all you had to do was experience something so exciting that you would die. It was clear how he crashed while falling from a high place. Soaring high in the sky, we dived towards the shrine.

「Hmph. Do you know how to just let him wake up?”

Princess Hongryeon did not leave us alone. Princess Hongryeon’s body rose into the air. That person was also wearing wings, so he could fly in the sky just like Sarah.

Princess Hongryeon flew towards us, flapping her wings.

But the flying speed was very fast.

“Burr, it’s already here!”

We were falling and were about to hit the roof of the pavilion. Princess Hongryeon arrived on the roof in the blink of an eye and tried to grab us by the hand. It was the moment when a pure white hand, like corn, was about to grab us. Sarah, who was flying, suddenly changed her direction.

━━Swish!

I narrowly avoided Princess Hongryeon’s hand.

Sarah and I walked away from the palace.

“You’re faster than me!”

“They keep following me!”

Princess Hongryeon was faster than Sarah. Although she was wearing the same wing suit, the speed at which she flew was at a whole new level. We kept trying to fall to the ground. But every time we tried to hit the ground, Princess Hongryeon appeared and interrupted us. I tried to fall together as many as 10 times, but I could not succeed even once.

“Haa…Haa….”

It was when we were flying low near the ground.

When we thought Princess Hongryeon had disappeared, she appeared behind us.

「You caught it?」

Princess Hongryeon grabbed Sarah’s collar. Sarah was dragged by her strong strength. I lost Sarah’s hand and rolled on her floor. I never fell from a low place and woke up from a dream alone.

“Ugh.”

I got up quickly.

Princess Hongryeon was seen nearby, grabbing Sarah by the hand.

「You should get scolded by your sister. Who wants to go down to this world on their own?”

“Let go of this!”

「If you let go, you will wake up from the dream, right? No.”

Sarah, caught by her collar, struggled in the air. It was as if she was seeing a kitten caught by the scruff of its neck. Princess Hongryeon seemed to have no intention of letting go of her Sarah. I don’t know how she would be scolded, but since she was a goddess, it could have been an ordeal beyond her imagination.

I couldn’t leave Sarah like this.

I rushed towards Princess Hongryeon.

「Are you trying to take her brother away? It’s not possible.”

Princess Hongryeon turned her body and put Sarah, who was holding her collar, behind her. But what I was trying to catch wasn’t Sarah. I grabbed Princess Hongryeon’s wing robe.

‘Gotcha.’

I succeeded in grabbing the sleeve of the wing suit. It was a brief moment, but I remembered fairy tales and legends related to fairies. In the story, the fairy whose wing clothes were taken away caused her to lose her powers. She didn’t know if she could subdue Princess Hongryeon if she took away the wing clothes.

“Sera! Take off her wings!”

Sera also saw me and immediately extended her hand to Princess Hongryeon.

We grabbed hold of the wing clothes together and tried to force them off. I thought that with this method, I would be able to subdue Princess Hongryeon. But no matter how hard we both applied, the wings never came off.

“Are you sure you are applying force?”

“That’s right!”

Princess Hongryeon wasn’t particularly resistant to getting dressed.

The wing clothes never fell off, as if they were part of the body. Time passed, but we were still clinging to both sides of Princess Hongryeon, giving strength.

「Hmm.」

Princess Hongryeon turned her head and spoke to me.

「Is your name Jinwoo?」

Actually, this was the first time Princess Hongryeon spoke to me. While I was trying to take off my clothes, he was talking to me. My name is Sarah, and I guess they figured it out because they overheard me talking.

“Yes.”

I said while giving strength to my wing clothes.

Princess Hongryeon nodded her head.

「Aha. It was Jinwoo. “You are a brave person.”

“You’re brave?”

“Now you are blatantly trying to steal her fairy wing clothes. “If I really succeed in stealing it, will you be able to handle the aftermath?”

What is it?

Can you handle the rest?

What happens if you succeed in stealing the wing suit?

「… ….」

Princess Hongryeon was staring at me as I held on to my winged robe.

I was very concerned about her eyes looking at me as if searching.

But saving Sarah was the priority.

I decided to kill time by talking. If you keep applying force, you will be able to remove the wings.

“What happens?”

I asked Princess Hongryeon out loud.

“What happens if you steal a winged suit? I heard that a long time ago, a woodcutter stole a fairy’s winged suit?”

「Ah. It’s an old story. The story of the fairy and the woodcutter actually happened. “There are just some parts of the story that are misrepresented.”

Unexpectedly, Princess Hongryeon gave an answer.

「In fact, there has never been a time in this world where fairy wings were stolen without anyone knowing anything about it. There is only a record of a fairy in love seducing her woodcutter.”

“Temptation?”

「If you look at the records, it seems that the woodcutter was a very handsome boy. The fairy had deliberately left her wing clothes to be stolen. The wings were bait, and the woodcutter took the bait.”

I was embarrassed.

Now we have finally learned the truth of the fairy tale that has been passed down since ancient times.

Imagination came to mind.

It was a scene where a fairy taking a bath was targeting the woodcutter. The fairy had deliberately lured her into stealing her winged clothes. The woodcutter could not resist her temptation and stole her wing clothes and ended up marrying her fairy.

“It’s amazing.”

I was embarrassed, but I soon came to my senses.

There was meaning in continuing to hold on to the wings and give them strength. Princess Hongryeon’s wing clothes were starting to come off little by little. It was the moment when the wing robe was about to fall and her white shoulders were revealed.

「It’s no use.」

Princess Hongryeon threw us lightly. Sarah and I, who were holding on to both sides, were pushed by a huge force and thrown away. Of the two of us, Sarah was more shocked. Sarah fell to the floor and couldn’t get up for a while.

“Ugh….”

Princess Hongryeon slowly approached Sarah, who had fallen on the floor.

「Eunryeong. Now it’s time to get scolded by her sister. “If she went down to this world on her own, she should be punished.”

“Don’t be funny!”

「What about the punishment of not being able to wake up from a dream for 4433252 years?」

It seemed like he was planning to punish Sarah by trapping her in her dream.

I got up and blocked Princess Hongryeon’s path.

「Get out of the way.」

“No. You can never get out of the way.”

What I was blocking was the goddess of heaven. He was a transcendent being who could control even the dreams of others. But she couldn’t abandon Sarah and run away alone.

Princess Hongryeon walked towards me.

I reached out and prepared to grab her by her wing clothes.

Finally, Princess Hongryeon came right in front of my nose.

Dreamy eyes were looking at me.

“It’s your younger brother, can you please take care of it?”

「Well, okay.」

How on earth should I deal with that?

It was a time when I was passing time through conversation and still racking my brain. Princess Hongryeon did not throw me away with as much force as before. He was just staring at my face. Since we were looking into each other’s eyes, it felt like my inner thoughts were being revealed.

Then there was a moment.

Princess Hongryeon looked at me with a puzzled expression.

「You. Are you thinking of ways to deal with me at this moment? Do you really think a boy like you can take on the Goddess of Heaven? You’ve been scratching your head since a while ago….」

My thoughts were caught through.

Princess Hongryeon really knew what I was thinking.

I answered without hesitation.

“I can deal with you.”

「Yes?」

“No matter what you encounter, there is always a solution.”

That was my belief. It’s been like that since long ago. Whether it’s a ghost or a monster, the moment has come when you will definitely solve it if you don’t give up. Even if the opponent was a high-ranking god, it made no difference. There must be a way to deal with fairies somewhere.

「… Okay.”

It was the moment when the answer was given.

There was silence for a moment.

Why are you staying still?

It was a time when I was wondering.

Princess Hongryeon covered her mouth with her sleeve.

A clear laugh came out from under the sleeves.

「hahahaha. You are an amazing person. “You’re trying to stand up to God for your little brother.”

The grim eyes calmed down.

Princess Hongryeon’s tone became as soft as when they first met. I’m not sure, but it seemed like Princess Hongryeon liked my answer. Princess Hongryeon said while looking over my shoulder at Sarah.

「I originally planned to scold my younger brother, but…. “Seeing you changed my heart.”

“Have you changed?”

「Yes. It seems like my younger brother met a very nice man in this world. “I like that part.”

It was while I was talking.

Princess Hongryeon raised her hand.

What are you trying to do with your hands?

It was when I was nervously watching Princess Hongryeon.

「I will wake you from your dream. Don’t think about coming here again. Because I don’t know what I’ll do in my dreams. “If we meet again, I can really lock you up.”

Princess Hongryeon clapped her hands.

━━Party!

The sound of applause rang out.

*

After that, it was time to open my eyes.

Sarah and I woke up in Hyehwadang.

“Ugh….”

“Huh…”

No matter how much I thought about it, it was an amazing thing.

When Princess Hongryeon clapped once, she woke up immediately from her dream.

When I slightly bent his finger, I felt real pain. Now I can see the numbers clearly. Sure enough, we had woken up from a dream.

I spoke to Sarah.

“You really woke up! You woke up because Princess Hongryeon clapped your hands.”

“It was an unbelievable monster.”

“She’s not a monster, she’s your sister.”

“If it’s not a monster, what is it?”

Fortunately, our bodies were fine.

No fairy dressed in wings came out of her house.

“Anyway, the fairy lived on a whim.”

“Whoa….”

That is how our past life experience ended.

It was truly a strange experience.

If I dream of my past life again, I could be in big trouble. The Princess Hongryeon we encountered in our dreams might trap us in our dreams for the rest of our lives. I felt like I had to be careful if I wanted to have another past life experience.

We looked at the date on our phones.

Exactly one day has passed since I started dreaming of my past life.

Today was a public holiday.

I woke up late in the afternoon, but I didn’t have to go to school.

“Let’s get some rest first.”

“Yes.”

We rested well at Hyehwadang that day.

Now that I think about it, there was something I had to do.

I had to tell Joo Hyuk the results of my past life experience.

I called and told Joo Hyuk.

He was Joo-hyuk, who said his previous life was a wild boar.

[Hello?]

“Oh, Joo Hyuk. Our past life experience just ended.”

[Oh, really? So, what were you guys in your past life?]

“I had no past life at all. I am a completely new person. Sarah was a fairy in her past life.”

[You have no previous life, and Sarah was a fairy? First of all, a fairy is better than a wild boar.]

Joo Hyuk’s voice came through the phone.

[Jinwoo. But isn’t it better to have been a wild boar than to have no past life? My past life is better than yours.]

“Isn’t it true? It’s much better to not have a past life than to have lived as a wild boar.”

[No? It’s not? Wild boars tear people to pieces.]

“I can tear that boar apart.”

I took a break while talking on the phone with Joo Hyuk.

The day passed.
