102 – 16: I discovered something strange at the beach today.
Gwitae has never been treated as a human being.
I’m not trying to lament about the miserable life I talked about before, I’m just telling the truth.
Her biological mother cursed at her, calling her someone who should not live, and tried to strangle her, which is her first memory of her mother.
She did not naturally learn to walk and run like other children. She said she was not a human but an evil spirit, so she first learned how to run to avoid the exorcists who were trying to kill her.
People point fingers and curse, calling it ominous. You can’t even walk down the street in crowded places without wearing sunglasses or something like that.
Very occasionally, there is someone who knows her power and pretends to be friendly with her, but his true intention is that he is someone who uses her power to take advantage of her personal interests. She eventually revealed her true self.
She was insulted, hated, and suffered because she was a monster. People who are hypocritical and full of lies.
Does she need any more reason than this to curse the world?
Gwitae hated the world. She detested pretentious and hypocritical people, so she felt more at ease with her evil spirit, who was nothing but a curse.
She must have been even more so because she had the skill to control and wield her evil spirit.
If the world she hopes for comes true, she will probably be able to become a freer person than anyone else.
Then, the black mud that had accumulated in her precious heart could disappear.
People cannot be trusted. The world is just hateful. Evil spirits can be dealt with by trampling on them.
Dream and make plans for the future you want. Although she was a ghost who had been secretly working with evil spirits like beasts. Recently, there has been a change in her life.
Because he has a special power that is unrivaled in this world, if he joins hands with him, he can shorten the planned plan by dozens of steps. There is no longer any need for the protagonist she thought about.
But that man is not so wretched that he could dare to take hold of it and wield it.
A man with rebelliousness engraved in his bones.
For a subject with such a personality, the values of a man who strangely adheres to law and morality seemed strange and incomprehensible to Guitae. Because he was that kind of person, the Academy could not easily touch him.
A person who has strength, will, and stubbornness, but does not wield power.
Gwitae has also seen many people, so she knows that if she wants to borrow the power of such a person, the only way is to pay a fair price and ask for it instead of trying to use it.
The way to cheat is with a handshake. He can’t forgive someone who takes advantage of him and deceives him, and if a relationship breaks out, he can only use the powerful card of Lee Jun once.
No, even that one chance wouldn’t be used properly considering his personality. He will definitely find out that it is a trick and destroy Gwi-tae’s plan.
That is why Guitae wanted to maintain a close relationship with him. Until now…… She had never been in an intimate relationship, so despite the awkwardness, she did her best.
Yes, his presence will be the biggest change and difference in her life.
She even told him about her own skills.
Gwitae uses her skills better than anyone else, but she did not tell anyone about the skills she used.
Because it is a skill that deals with evil spirits, I have been careful because if it is known, it may be heavily marked by exorcists or targeted by the plum blossoms.
Nevertheless, letting a man named Lee Jun know about his skills was a choice driven by half-passionate emotions.
She had a lot of skills that she could do. When she was young and didn’t know anything, she wanted to reach out to people and show others what her powers could do.
She was used each time and eventually abandoned. The people who tried to use her erased her from the world, but those experiences taught her many things and enlightened her.
Humans are beings who use and deceive others. That’s what she realized in her life.
But Lee Jun did not do that. She reacted indifferently to seeing her abhorrent power of harnessing evil spirits.
She doesn’t know if she’s just not interested or if she has other ideas. Such a reaction was surprising and strange to her.
He is a strange person. It was so strange that she couldn’t figure out what this man wanted.
“Little one. Now, I know it’s a funny thing to say in this situation. Listen to me because I am older than you. There will be too many sh*tty things in life. But set the line based on your standards.
No matter what you are, you are human. No matter what anyone says, he is a person. No matter how sh*tty life is, if you think you’re human, you’ll be lucky too.”
“…… “Are you bragging?”
“No. It’s raining. “I hope you meet someone like I met you.”
“… ….”
Now it is no longer possible to sum up his existence with one word: strange. He should be called an idiot.
Where could there be such a person? Humans are selfish and hypocritical creatures. He is a completely different being inside and out.
But the man in front of me was truly saying that he wished he could meet someone like that.
You’re bleeding from the nose and saying things like that in front of a powerful evil spirit that you don’t know where it came from.
Like the red mask, it has enormous spiritual power that seems to surpass that of Class A. It is so huge that it seems as if all the water ghosts of this sea came together.
As Guitae was hit by the huge waves and storm-like wind caused by such an evil spirit, he wondered if he had heard wrong.
What is the point of saying something like that when everyone could die? Even those words contained no lies or hypocrisy.
‘Who the hell is this person…? ….’
Seeing Gwitae frozen in shock, he said that he would help him if he wanted to run away.
Are you being considerate of yourself in this situation? What on earth does he do? Are you stupid?
Guitae watched him blankly, his body stiffening as if he had been hit hard on the head.
He went beyond Class A and showed off his overwhelming physical strength against a gigantic evil spirit that was over 10 meters tall.
That evil spirit, which heals its wounds by constantly absorbing the water ghosts wandering the sea, and which cannot be exterminated unless its core is destroyed as both singular and multiple, was an unexpected monster to her.
Even according to the man’s claim, since he possessed a sacred object called Yeouiju, the power of the divine spirit called Wooshin did not work on that evil spirit.
Against a monster that can already be said to be the master of the eastern sea. The man broke through all the attacks head on and separated the orb from the hand of the evil spirit in the form of a dragon.
It was a quick, quick flash, like a fired bullet. The hand of an evil spirit that is cut off and scatters in the air.
At the same time as the man shouted, the huge water ghost was destroyed by the hand of the spirit that had been ignoring and laughing at it until now.
It had several meanings.
I thought it would all end with me thinking about it and watching the evil spirit that seemed to corrupt the entire sea in curse and sorrow disappear before my eyes. It wasn’t the end.
Gwitae saw a blinding lightning strike.
The severed hand of the evil spirit changes into a human form, holds a bead in its chest, and holds a curse even more vicious than before.
It resembled the blue dragon Ushin, muttered something, then smiled maniacally and spread out its territory.
A dark barrier containing a pitch-black deep sea. A huge, unpleasant barrier that gives off the fishy smell of the sea. The barrier that unfolded before the divine spirit Wooshin could do anything was clearly something that could take Lee Jun’s life away.
Lee Joon dies. Such a thought passed through Guitae’s mind.
Even if he died like this, there was actually no problem for Gwitae. Rather, it was beneficial.
His power is fascinating and he shortens her plan by several steps. In other words, if she opposes him, the plan she made will be greatly distorted.
It is better to be allies than to be hostile, but due to his personality, he is bound to be at odds with Guitae.
Then it would be better for him not to be in this world. If you judge it rationally, it is so.
But Guitae did not even think of killing him. Why?
A short time of less than 1 second. The waves crash and the cold wind hits her cheek. If nothing is done like this, Lee Joon will die.
Gwitae took a deep breath and looked ahead. It is extremely difficult to kill evil spirits inside their native realm.
Basically, how to deal with evil spirits that can use a unique domain begins with pulling them out from within the unique domain.
Her previous victory over Red Mask was due to the specificity of her skills and the relatively weak power of her unique area, taking advantage of the limitation that the evil spirit of Red Mask was the answer.
But that evil spirit is different. The thing that appeared separately was a monster with power comparable to the previous Red Mask.
Even if you are an A-class exorcist, if you face the unique territory that such an evil spirit has expanded without any preparation, you will die. For the future she hopes for, she doesn’t have to do anything like this.
In the first place, she had no way to do anything about it.
‘No, there is.’
Actually she has one method.
It is a method that cannot be used by ordinary humans, but it is a power that only she can use, as half of her blood belongs to her evil spirit.
Unique area.
But Guitae has never shown this power to anyone. I hate using it in the first place.
Unique territory is a curse that only evil spirits and possessed bodies can use.
Extreme strengthening of the curse that forms the basis of evil spirits. A curse on the world that uses barrier techniques to burn the curses of evil spirits.
And being able to write something like that was already proving that Gwitae was not a human being.
It is possible because she is the child of an evil spirit, and it is a miracle possible because her skills allow her to completely subdue and control evil spirits. I might be able to make an excuse like that.
Gwitae did not use this in any other case.
Even if the skill is revealed, it can be dismissed as just having an extremely special skill. This, this, that excuse doesn’t even work.
Even if she uses this number, her changing self cannot be considered human.
If you think rationally, there was no reason for Guitae to save Lee Jun by exposing his own shame.
But Gwitae had put her hands together and made a seal without realizing it.
From noble mtl dot com
She begins to build space, drawing out her spiritual power to its limits. Her head tells her to leave it alone, but her body moves as it pleases.
“Unique domain development.”
Why are you doing this? Although she has doubts, her body moves.
A pitch-black shadow spreads, encroaching on the air. Countless evil spirits under Gwitae spread in the form of shadows and encroach on the world.
The unpleasant sight, as if the mud in her heart was coming out of reality and swallowing everything inside her, was so terrible that she could not bear to see it with her own eyes.
This alone is the worst, but immediately afterward, pain rushes through her body. My vision turns red, and animal horns, not human, sprout from my forehead.
If anyone else saw her, they would exclaim that the devil from her Bible had appeared.
Disgusting and disgusting. No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like a human. A mocking curse calling her a monster, not a human, passes through her ears and bloody tears flow from her eyes.
It was a disgusting and painful force, but its destructive power was enormous.
Quad deuk! Two distinct areas collided, and from a common sense perspective, Guitae should have lost. On the contrary, her domain wins.
As if that wasn’t enough, he tried to devour an evil spirit that looked exactly like the divine spirit Wooshin, but the evil spirit ran away instead of fighting, cutting off its own arms and legs.
Lee Jun begins to fall into the sea while still alive.
I was exposed to something I didn’t want to show to anyone. But more than that, I was glad that Lee Jun survived.
He looks at himself. He is so embarrassed and wants to somehow get rid of the horns that have sprouted on his body by plucking them out.
As the sight of those eyes stained with disgust and hatred flashed through her mind, pain as if a knife had been stabbed into her heart rushed to her. The mud accumulated in her chest boils and feels painful.
Gwi-tae, who had forgotten how to breathe, looked to see what the man he rescued from the water would say, and then Lee Jun said something. When I heard that I was thankful, I burst into tears.
He said he burst into tears? It’s embarrassing and shameful. When Guitae came to his senses, he was already in an unknown back alley of the city.
Realizing that she was sheltering from the pouring rain under the eaves of a building, Guitae hid her face between her knees, feeling the heat rise from her face.
This situation was unexpected, but there were many things for Gwitae to think about.
It turned out that the strengthening of evil spirits through casting, which she wanted to know, was actually possible, as a water demon appeared after absorbing a powerful casting that was presumed to be her Yeouiju.
Now we have to think about how to use this.
Another thing to worry about was the fact that the main character could not come because a large number of evil spirits appeared and attacked the citizens.
The evil spirits that lead such a large number of evil spirits and attack people are the evil spirits that are her collaborators. I had to find out what purpose they had come here for.
And finally, she must sort out her relationship with Lee Joon, who exposed the side of her that she desperately wanted to hide.
And most importantly, as the mud in her heart falls away, she must deal with the embarrassment that arises as unfamiliar emotions arise.
There is too much work to be done right now. But I couldn’t open my mouth.
Guitae continued her silence, taking in the gaze of the man sitting next to her, catching his breath, and the spirit Wooshin looking at her. After a while, she opened her mouth as she heard the sounds of police cars and fire trucks.
“…… You are truly an amazing person. “You look at me like this and say thank you, even if it’s a lie.”
“Do you think I’m someone who can’t even say thank you? Pestilence. I’m already mad because I can’t even handle that damn piece of meat. Mr. Lee.”
A man who sulks and grumbles like a child. He seemed more annoyed at not being able to exorcise the demon than at surviving.
Seeing that, Gwitae burst out laughing and curled his body deeper, but at that moment, he trembled at the feel of the sharp horns protruding from his forehead.
A horn that has not yet disappeared. In response, Gwitae shrank his body.
His self-hatred boils and burns. This cannot be cut out. He could be seen as a cheap price to pay for using power that was outside of the realm of human beings, but he hated it so, so much.
Every time a car passes by, he sees himself blurry in the water pooled beneath his feet.
Eyes are pitch black and have no whites. Horns sprouting from the forehead. No matter where you look, it doesn’t look human.
‘You are not human! You were never born! ‘You monster!’
“Ha.”
The curse of the person I will call my mother who no longer exists comes to mind and a sound like a sigh comes out.
Gwitae was close to sighing in self-deprecation for being in such a pitiful situation, but the man next to him probably didn’t see it that way.
He said, frowning at the pain he felt in his body.
“He doesn’t trust people. Hey. Do you see people as ungrateful people? … ? Good. “Then, I will help you later.”
“…… “You’ll help me with anything?”
“No. “Only what I want to help.”
“What is that…?” ….”
“I’m older than you, then. “Would you like to help kill someone?”
The sight of him speaking so confidently made me laugh because it was so absurd.
Then what are you helping me with? He realizes that he has a purpose for being friendly, and that he has no intention of killing anyone even though he is willing to help.
“Then what can I help you with?”
“Anything except killing someone.”
“Ha. Do you know why I’m approaching you? No, rather. “Do you know what I will do if you say that?”
“Do you think I’m just saying this without thinking?”
The man stopped his words there. He pulled Wooshin, who was still staring at him, into his arms and stroked his head. He spoke, revealing his smiling figure in the shadows of the dark night.
“You saved me even though you didn’t want to show it, but isn’t that the right thing to do? Oh, of course, if you cross the line, your head will break.”
Seeing him pretending to hit something with the blade of his hand, Guitae felt an unfamiliar emotion, not the one he felt when rotten mud piled up in his chest, and he gritted his teeth and lowered his face.
I still don’t know why I tried to save him even though I didn’t want to show him like this.
Gwitae had an inexplicable confidence that he would have made the same choice if he had the chance again.
Early night. Falling rain. The two of them sheltering from the rain under the eaves.
Gwitae sat with the man, even forgetting the cold, until the sun rose the next day. When the sun finally rose, he got up and said he had some business to do.
And the place the man headed to was not a hospital or any place like that – it was the police station.
“Because work is over. “You should turn yourself in for hitting someone yesterday.”
“Are you crazy?”
Gwitae truly wondered where this person was wandering around with his sanity.
