Episode 203
“Yu Baek suddenly appeared in front of us one day.”
It will be easy to understand if you look at the case similar to the character Jin Myung, who first appeared during the Baekgwi Nights incident.
“He was strong, and just like us, he had a purpose to stop the white guinea pigs. After that, the length of time we acted together increased, and we gradually grew closer to each other.”
Fingerprint Seok said. It is said that Yoo Baek-do, Yoo Ha-on’s father, and Yeon So-yoon, mother of Yu Ha-on, were also members of such a group.
“Accordingly, he also began to reveal his secrets to us gradually. It was quite shocking.”
That is, Yu-baek was not a person of this age, and that he had crossed the age to prevent this baek-gwi night trip.
Yu Baek did not disclose any further information, but at that time, everyone could have guessed that something unusual was happening.
“We thought we should help him. And as the days passed, our relationship grew stronger. In the end, Nom and Soyun even fell in love.”
Yoo Ha-on, who had heard the story up to that point, clenched his fists. It was the moment when his birth was revealed, so it was good enough.
“We had nothing to fear, and everything seemed to work out. But it was all for nothing.”
The monsters grew stronger, and eventually there were people who couldn’t keep up with them one by one.
As usual, the world became more desolate. Until the vitality disappears from people’s faces.
“It was probably from that point that your father, Yu-baek, changed.”
Yubaek had a secret that he had not yet told. However, it is said that no matter how much his colleagues asked, including Jung Ji-seok, Yu-baek did not tell him.
“He obviously knew something more. I was too impatient to fit in. We never heard of it, but he, too, had an open mind.”
From there, it had nothing to do with me.
“Do you know the name Jooun?”
“Joowoon, I think I’ve heard… … .”
“He was one of those who were once called the heroes of the White Ghost. And it was terribly strong. So, even Yu-baek could have confided everything to him.”
Conversely, it also meant that he was holding a secret that the rest of his colleagues could not afford.
“And from then on, our relationship began to change.”
Yu-baek didn’t want to endanger his colleagues anymore. So Joowoon and I acted together more often, and the worries of those around us only increased.
“And eventually it happened.”
Jooun and Yubaek, who shared the same purpose, split up.
“I don’t know the exact details, but they both thought their paths were right for each other. However, Yubaek said that what Zhou Woon wanted to do was beyond human right. Even if it is to save a greater majority.”
So, the two started to collide, and in the end, Joo-woon stopped him and killed Yu-baek.
“Soyun, who was left alone like that, already had you inside. Without taking revenge or doing anything, I had no choice but to bury my heart.”
In the end, Yoo Ha-on was born, but the situation did not end there. So Yeon-yoon, who had regained her body, finally found Joo-woon.
“I don’t know what happened there. Only Soyun returned, and she also died after less than a week from the wounds she suffered. Perhaps Jooun also met the same conclusion.”
And it is said that Yeon Yeon-yoon asked for a fingerprint stone on the last way. He and Yu-baek’s daughter, Ha-on Yoo, asks that they just let them live their lives without knowing anything.
“It’s really funny, because my parents sat down in pairs with the same request.”
Before the decisive battle with Joo-woon, Yoo-baek also summoned fingerprint-seok to ask.
If they die, So Yeon-yoon and Yoo Ha-on will forget everything and step back from the front line so that they can live a normal life.
“Foolish things, can’t they be like that? Even now, after all, you came to this place… … .”
After hearing all the facts, Ha-on lowered her head.
She eventually found out what had happened to her parents, and was aware of their deaths as well.
It was the end of the close friend whom he cherished the most, and even if he did not express it, his heart would be quite complicated.
‘It was something I knew through the story, but… … .’
Being directly involved in that person is dizzying in my head. Even if I try to think that it has nothing to do with me, it is inevitable that I will naturally be concerned.
“That would be enough of an answer. So, stop now and go back and eat well and live a good life just like your parents wished. Acting as an exorcist is something to cheer for, but make sure you never face opponents you can’t handle.”
Fingerprint-seok must have been watching Yoo Ha-on’s actions.
So I was just worried. Because Yoo Ha-on, who is now, also jumped into the situation quite effortlessly.
However, Yoo Ha-on did not retreat from there.
“Tell me please. information about the secrets they held.”
“Hey, bastard. What have you heard so far? Because it was the wish of those fools that you forget that.”
“You’re saying you have something to point out.”
“Huh, I am. It doesn’t matter to this extent. Because I don’t know much either.”
Soon, Fingerprint Seok waved his hand as if tired of it and added more words.
“Obviously, I had one question as I was watching all of that.”
“… what is that?”
“That’s their attitude. In my opinion, the exorcists in Korea were holding up well enough, and they actually succeeded in overcoming the Baekgwi-Yahaeng incident.”
However, it seems that Yu-baek and Joo-woon were embracing a lot of unknown anxiety even in such a situation.
“That means, unlike others, they thought they shouldn’t go on like this.”
It was a very meaningful word. Seeing Yoo Ha-on, who was beginning to immerse himself in trouble, Jung Ji-seok spoke again.
“I, too, was able to get a rough idea by looking at the recent situation. After all, isn’t there something more?”
Fingerprint Seok said. Yu-baek and Joo-un must have foreseen today’s situation as well. And that made it certain.
“It probably doesn’t end here. Clearly, a crisis remains. And that’s something that monstrous bastards could have convinced them that there’s no hope as they are.”
That was the conclusion he reached. And it was actually correct.
‘It remains. Very loudly.’
The 1st and 2nd Baekgwi nights were literally just a process.
The real crisis is nothing more than the fragments that fell out first.
Hearing this, Haon Yu’s expression hardened.
“I mean, my parents tried to stop it.”
“… don’t think in vain Now, unlike before, there are great exorcists everywhere. You don’t have to do anything.”
“Do you really think so?”
“Ah, that blue-eyed little guy doesn’t say anything.”
However, fingerprint Seok also had an expression that was not happy.
“It’s funny that I feel like I’m bragging about my friends, but those two guys were really great. I can’t even predict what was going on that these guys were so wary of.”
In the end, it meant that even as a fingerprint stone, it was not certain whether the current power was sufficient.
Hearing this, Yoo Ha-on got up from his seat and bowed his head.
“… Thank you for your precious words. Thanks to you, I got rid of one regret.”
“Again, I beg you, but there is no need to foolishly follow their will. You just have to live your life.”
“Yes. They are them, and I am me.”
Yoo Ha-on did not waver.
Already due to the past, her inner self had matured beyond belief.
“So it doesn’t matter what they want. I’m an exorcist, I’ll always ask myself and fulfill my responsibility.”
“… Believe me, I’m a fool After all, that father is his daughter. ttt.”
Soon, fingerprint-seok waved his hand and gave a congratulatory order to me and Ha-on Yu.
And he added one last word.
“However, after talking, my mind is cleared up. Come to think of it, their requests are ridiculous. Is that my fault? Just live your life the way you want to.”
and.
“Don’t die foolishly like them.”
“… Yes. I will come to greet you for a long time.”
“Ts. That was it.”
So, Ha-on Yoo and I left the office of Fingerprint Seok.
After stopping their actions for a while and maintaining silence, for some reason the door creaked open and fingerprint stone with a nervous expression appeared.
“Such an idiot. I also have to be careful and tell you. Beware of the Conquest of the Exorcism Headquarters. Unlike us, he was in favor of Jooun’s will. After that, I heard that he was committing a lot of bad things behind his back, so maybe he will do something for you too.”
“… Yes. I’ll be careful.”
So, after giving the final request, the door to the office was closed again. We headed out of the building.
During that brief time, Ha-on Yoo changed her expression several times and seemed to clear up her complicated mind.
“It feels weird. It’s not as big of a shock as I thought, but it’s strangely disturbing.”
“… It’s normal. There is no need to suppress it.”
Just let it flow like that. That way, her heart would be cleared up, and her inner self would become even stronger.
“What kind of sight were they looking at?”
As of now, there is no way to know.
But, perhaps sooner or later, she will find out too.
After all, it was the wave that would come to her, the protagonist of this world.
“We just have to do what we have to do.”
“… Yes. That’s definitely true. I’m sorry to hear about the disturbing story.”
Yoo Ha-on glanced at me with a slightly guilty expression.
However, in that respect, I am no less. Even though I knew all the future, I hid it from her, and so was the fact about Joo Woon.
‘… Well, that’s not what’s important.’
There are some words in the world that you don’t need to get out of your mouth.
In the end, the important thing is to help Yoo Ha-on fulfill her role. It was just that.
‘By the way, it’s Jogye Studies… … .’
He is a familiar figure to me. That’s because it was also the dark side of the Shin Do-hoon incident that Myeong-yul directly spoke of.
‘I had no idea that he was Jowoon and Yubaek’s colleague.’
Haha, he, too, was not originally a character who appeared directly in the story.
It seemed obvious that it was the effect of the Hell difficulty, as we had guessed before.
‘… There are more and more things to be careful about.’
I was just following along to help Yu Ha-on, but I heard some very disturbing information.
With the name of Jogye-hak in my mind once again, I took a step with the low-pitched Yu Ha-on.
