220 – If Hail continues like this # 5
“Mi… mi….”
Seo Ye-rim paused for an apology.
The way it was muttering “Mi-mi-mi” Seemed like a cicada crying.
“Mi….”
What on earth are you taking so long to say?
As for Seo Ye-rim’s personality….
─Mi… That disgusting nymph… ! You might yell, “You were the one who was wrong first.”
“Sorry… ?”
However, Seo Ye-rim’s apology was more genuine than expected. She
Of course she felt sloppy, but Illinois was a very good nymph with a big heart and she seemed to have accepted the apology.
“Illinois accepts Kore Yerim’s apology… ! In particular, he wants to give Illinois a chance to become his nymph again… !”
An opportunity that does not come every day.
Seo Ye-rim stroked Illinois’ chin and head with her hands.
“「Korebigi, caressing the nymph’… !”
Swish, swish, swish.
It was literally a technique of caressing the nymph.
Illinois said, straightening her shoulders as if satisfied with the touch.
“hehehehe, the contract has been concluded… ! Returns are now impossible… ! Kore Yerim is responsible for protecting the employment stability of her partner Nymph… !”
“Illinois guy….”
Slurr-.
Seo Ye-rim opened her narrow eyes and pursed her lips.
He wants to say something, but he seems to be holding back.
“So, where is that elixir?”
Lee Jin-ah asked.
Then Illinois turned on the cell phone app and showed her map.
“It’s at the headquarters of the Nature Group… ! When Illinois made the Great Escape from the Nature Company, he left all his belongings behind… !”
Nature Group’s headquarters.
Isn’t this where Han Ju-ryeon works?
Zek-.
Seo Ye-rim, who had packed her luggage, stood up from her seat and said.
“What are you doing? Let’s go quickly before it’s too late. I want to say, get in my car, but it’s too big. Jina, did you bring the truck?”
“Oh, well, that’s true.”
Zek-.
I got into the truck’s cargo area with that feeling.
It was a special experience to become an animal and ride in the luggage compartment, so it felt strange.
# # #
Nature Group’s headquarters was located near a large rice field near Siheung, Gyeonggi-do. Although it was located in a rather ordinary location for an emerging company that was gaining global recognition, the building was large and magnificent.
There were a lot of expenses.
It was also a place where no one could enter.
We were able to easily enter the building thanks to Seo Ye-rim contacting Han Ju-ryeon in advance. She even had Han Ju-ryun appear in person to guide us.
“This big dog squirrel is called Haildo?”
I see.
Han Ju-ryeon wanted to see with her own eyes the miraculous event of a person turning into a dog squirrel.
I stood on my feet in front of Han Ju-ryeon and spoke.
From noble mtl dot com
“Kkeongkeong-!”
It didn’t mean anything.
I was just barking.
However, looking at that scene, Han Ju-ryun blushed as if he was greatly embarrassed and surprised.
“A person turns into a big dog squirrel…” . Oh my, this can’t be…. It’s a complete animal itself. How can this be… ? This is the real Hail Island… ? This wild animal… !?”
Swish, swish, swish.
Han Ju-ryeon continued to stroke my chin and back. Cracking, cracking – the electric current was a stinging touch, but there seemed to be no malice.
Swish, swish, swish.
No, aren’t you stroking it too much?
On the other hand, if I had just petted Han Ju-ryeon, it would have been on the 9 o’clock news.
“I have one question. Can I hug you? Oh, of course it doesn’t mean anything! When will you ever see a dog squirrel this big? Standing on two legs… !”
As far as I know, Han Ju-ryeon was a person who ‘very’ loved animals.
Even though Almaeng knew that I was Haildo, because I looked like a big dog squirrel, he thought I was some kind of big teddy bear or a mascot wearing a doll mask and wanted to hug me.
Han Ju-ryeon willingly allowed a visit to the headquarters to find Illinois elixir and volunteered as a guide.
Since I had survived by receiving artificial respiration from Han Ju-ryun, he willingly agreed to repay my debt.
“Kkeongkeong-!”
“… “You mean it will work?”
Come on!
Soon Juryun Han hugged my body.
His body was trembling and his breathing was heavy.
“The fur is really soft! It’s warm and soft… ! This is my first time feeling like this… ! Something like this exists in the world… !”
Bubi Bubi-.
The sight of him burying his face in my chest and rubbing it here and there was very itchy. And at the same time, I thought that cute animals really live easy lives, so I came up with something like Wise Man Time.
I received favor from many people just because I looked cute.
“Do you even understand me? A big animal that understands what I say… ! Of course, I know something like that can’t exist in this world… ! Do you understand what I’m saying… !?”
Han Ju-ryeon sniffed and smelled my body.
I somehow felt creepy and struggled to push Han Ju-ryeon away from her.
Pajik, Pajijik-. It’s a painful situation when the hair on my body stands up randomly due to static electricity.
“Crumbling… !!!”
Then Seo Ye-rim, who was looking at this scene, pulled Han Ju-ryun’s arm.
“What do you understand? Even when Haildo was a human, he was known for not being able to understand what was being said and for being tactless. You won’t understand a single thing! A little further than that! “He doesn’t like it!”
Thanks to Seo Ye-rim, Han Ju-ryeon, the main culprit of the static electricity, was eliminated from me. It was a very fortunate thing, but it was also ironic when I think about what happened to Seo Ye-rim who wiped the moisture off my body.
Anyway.
With that feeling, we were able to discover black liquid in a PT bottle at what used to be an office in Illinois.
It looked like homemade soy sauce made in a cola bottle.
The smell was also salty.
The reason I can sense the smell even though it is in a PT bottle is probably because my sense of smell has been trained and enhanced through the dog squirrel’s unique ‘wild sense’.
“Mmm, this is an elixir made by combining garlic and mugwort that Illinois brought in from Uiseong, Gyeongsangbuk-do… ! Garlic and mugwort… ! If that happens, all curses will be destroyed… !”
It was Illinois who said that there was nothing better than an elixir made of garlic and mugwort to cure animal curses.
I had to gulp down a potion that smelled like garlic extract. I felt a spicy and bitter taste go down my throat and tickle under my skin.
Swish, swish.
I used my front paws and legs to shake off my body.
It felt like there were honey ants crawling on my body.
━Zuji… ?
But the honey ant was sitting there on Oinoi’s shoulder.
Anyway.
I felt the feeling of animals shedding their hair, and I shaved and scratched my body.
Has it been about 5 minutes since then?
“My, my body has returned to its original state… !”
I felt very moved that my body had returned to its original state. How I missed having the palm of my hand to tap on my keyboard and phone at will!
I also missed my lips and throat that could say other things than kkeongkeong!
“I am now complete!”
Warak-.
I raised my hands high and shouted.
Then Jinah Lee blushed and held out some clothes to me.
“Why don’t you put on some clothes first. “Before I get arrested and accused of being a pervert.”
# # #
“Wow, it’s effective. “I came back as a real person.”
“Mmm, is the effect of the ‘Animal Curse Elixir’ that Illinois was making for the Kalinoi Sister excellent? ? I feel very good… !”
“Very excellent.”
Sseukseu-.
I patted Illinois’ head.
Then Illinois seemed very happy and climbed up on the desk and shouted.
“That Illinois is a very helpful Useful Nymph… ! I am not a nymph who will ever get fired or have her cheek pinched… ! I’m asking for a little more respect… !”
I see.
Illinois seems to have wanted to prove its competence.
Anyway.
I thought it would be nice to give Kalinoi this “Animal Curse Elixir” As well.
Bongbong Kalinoi was originally a human, but he received a strong curse and had to live in the body of a horned owl.
I have some elixir left, so I should go home later and give some to Kalinoi.
With that in mind, we got into the car to go home.
“Hey, Hail too…. “Well, you’re not going back to being an animal anymore, are you?”
As I was about to leave the Nature headquarters, Joo-Ryun Han spoke to me. Her face was very red and she looked like a high school girl who was about to send out a shy love letter.
It looks like you really liked the big dog squirrel, right?
Sniff-sniff-.
At that time, I felt a fragrant smell in my nose.
This fragrant smell was coming from Han Ju-ryun’s left pants pocket.
“Do you have any almonds?”
“Uh… How did know?”
“Yes.”
I returned as a human.
However, what could be called the ‘sense of wildness’ that was strengthened when it turned into a large dog squirrel seemed to maintain its effect to some extent.
Hearing.
Sense of smell.
Time.
Taste.
Even the tactile sense of the blowing autumn wind.
All my senses became more sensitive as if they had evolved to the next level, and I felt distracted.
That’s because all the women in the car with me smelled like flowers or fruits. It was amazing that a person could smell so good even without using perfume.
Of course, if you smell a good smell for a long time, you become dizzy. I somehow suppressed the feeling that my blood was boiling and getting sore, and I strengthened my resolve.
“I need to train myself to be able to control it according to my will.”
I thought it would be good to be able to control the runaway ‘wild persimmon’ with magical power.
The rush of sensations I feel right now is the runaway of the squirrel’s magical power that I briefly acquired through an animal potion.
If I were able to control it freely, it wouldn’t be impossible to improve several skills at once.
“Hail the dog squirrel….”
For some reason, I returned to the well house, leaving behind Han Ju-ryeon, who faintly called my name.
The cat that was waiting for me in the yard came running with the sunset on its back.
━Kkeongkeong… !
A skunk runs towards me and then suddenly hid.
Soon, a shadow appeared in the sky, and Bongbong Kalinoi flew towards Kungkungi’s empty seat.
━Whoo, whoo… !
“Kalinoi!”
I welcomed Kalinoi warmly.
I also fed him an elixir that smelled like garlic extract, and although the taste could have been quite painful, Kalinoi was able to get over it with ease.
“What do you think?”
I took a good look at Kalinoi.
However, no matter how much time passed, Kalinoi rarely returned to his human form. Oinoi said while looking at the scene.
“The curse is so strong that the elixir alone does not seem to be able to remove Kalinoi’s curse… ! The elixir is not activated in the body… !”
I see.
It was a disappointing story.
Palak-.
At that time, Seo Ye-rim handed me a piece of paper.
“Hey, Haildo. “Are you thinking about going on a variety show?”
Entertainment.
Has it finally come to me?
I received several documents from Seo Ye-rim.
They were documents such as broadcast plans and contracts.
The smell of ink was strong.
“You look in a good mood?”
Tuk-.
Jinah Lee hit my side.
Now that I think about it, I feel very refreshed and good.
Very good feeling indeed.
I gathered momentum and spoke to Lee Jin-ah.
“I was going to say I’m sorry for hitting you yesterday. “After hearing what you said, I also thought about it a lot.”
“… Well, since we fought with each other, let’s call them teachers. “I did hit him two more times, though.”
Now that I think about it, it seems like I got two more hits.
But for now, I guess it’s good.
I realized something these past few days.
If you want to carry out your ideals, you need strong strength.
The power to become stronger.
Through this “Animal Potion,” I felt like I had caught a clue, and I didn’t want to lose this faint feeling.
I want to train quickly -.
When thinking about that, Seo Ye-rim said.
“It seems like I’ve caught on to something. A long time ago, when Haildo first became an awakened person, he had a face like that. It was an incredibly long time ago, but… Well, take care of yourself.”
Pisik-.
Seo Ye-rim smiled and put her Illinois in her car.
Jinah Lee seemed to have something to say, but she said to me, “Okay, take care of yourself,” And then she got into the truck and left town.
A sunset afternoon.
Now I am left alone.
A scarecrow installed in an abandoned rice field.
I sat cross-legged under a persimmon tree nearby and began to meditate calmly.
━Kkeongkeong… !
━Zuji… !
━Hiooong… !
━Whoo, whoo… !
Then the animals gathered around me and calmly curled up to sleep, sing, or straighten their feathers.
It was an extremely calming scene, and even with my eyes closed, I could picture their actions vividly in my mind, as if they were amplified.
Zek-.
I placed the sleeping cat curled up around me in the palm of my hand. Now I see that it is emitting a magical power that is unbelievable for its small size.
From noble mtl dot com
When I was normally insensitive, I had no idea that Kungkungi exuded so much presence and magic.
It was indeed the best dog squirrel.
“Kkeungkeung, let me borrow your magic power for a moment. Expanding magical power.”
Hwaak-.
I tried to spread my magic over a wider area, feeling like I was borrowing the magic of Kungkung.
Feeling that all senses become sharper and sharper.
Sniff-sniff-.
I felt a faint smell of alcohol at the tip of my nose. It wasn’t just the smell of alcohol, it was the smell of medical alcohol used to disinfect various things.
There was also a faint smell of sweat and sweet lipstick. If you listen more carefully, you can also hear a very faint but hot breathing sound.
“Who is there?”
I asked into the air.
“Ever since I became a dog squirrel, I’ve been feeling a strange presence, but I thought it was just my mood. But no. Someone was around me. “All day today.”
Ttogak-.
There was a sound of footsteps.
It was the sound of shoes.
# # #
Yuari.
She recently gained a new ability by defying her spirit.
It was “Hidden.”
It is not that the body becomes transparent like the ghost spider, but that one’s mana is completely hidden from the world and is perceived as ‘not there’.
That was Yuari’s “Hidden”.
But─.
“Who is there?”
Haildo seemed to sense the presence of Yua Lee, who was watching her nearby.
Yuari was greatly embarrassed that her skills, which had never been discovered before, were destroyed.
So─.
I ran away without even looking back.
Passuk-.
Yuari disappeared at a rapid pace.
Haildo twitched her nose where Yuari was standing.
“This smell….”
There is a story that dog squirrels can picture information and even the appearance of another person in their mind just by smelling them.
So, it is said that dog squirrels come by scent even from far away places in search of companions and mates.
Something similar was happening in Haildo’s mind, who had strengthened her senses by borrowing the magic power of a dog squirrel.
Its weight is probably around 59Kg.
Rather than being overweight, this type of person weighs more because they have well-balanced and trained muscles like an athlete.
She is 165cm tall.
Her foot size is 230mm.
Considering the information she received through her senses of smell and hearing, she probably looked like a woman.
And after combining this information, the image of two women appeared in Haildo’s mind.
One of them was Yuari Yu.
But the image of her infant Lee was quickly erased from my mind.
While Yuari was hiding her presence all day, she was watching herself.
This is because Haildo could clearly say that the Yuari he knew was not the person to do such a thing.
Then, there is only one suspect left.
“… She is that woman… ! A woman with a bird-like mask… !”
