“I’m glad, though. It’s been resolved somehow.”
“yes. It’s all thanks to you, Yoosung.”
“What did I do? Rather, Mahesh suffered more than me.”
As I said that, I looked at the brown-skinned Egyptian ghost floating next to Ryuji.
“Well. It’s good to thank you. contractor. Without me, that girl would not have been possible.”
If it wasn’t for Mahesh’s existence, Ryuji would definitely be… No, now it’s Chiaki.
I wouldn’t have been able to accept Chiaki.
Of course, Chiaki is a ghost with tremendous yin, so it would not be strange if he died as he was if he possessed an ordinary person.
However, because Mahesh, who possesses extreme power, already exists in Ryuji’s body, he was able to miraculously maintain his balance.
Should I call it the so-called harmony of yin and yang?
I think I did a lot of power-up thanks to that, but I’m afraid of how strong I will become.
Sasha got into the car after the possession was released and went home, and the four of us were the only ones left, and we had a conversation we couldn’t finish.

Maybe other people will think it’s weird.
Two good-looking high school students are talking into the air.
It was also the reason that he deliberately selected a rare park as the meeting place by paying attention to such a gaze.
“How have you been?”
“uh? I… 」
In particular, Ryuji and Chiaki talked without any awkwardness, even though they had not seen each other for a long time.
Thanks to this, Mahesh, who became a duck egg on the Nakdong River, sat down next to me, giving them a lukewarm gaze.
“It’s a good time.”
I asked Mahesh like that.
“By the way, Mahesh. How old were you before you died?”
“Why are you asking such a thing all of a sudden?”
“No, there is no particular reason.”
Then Mahesh replied with a grin, as if it was bland.
“I died when I was a little over 30. He died fighting the clan of the night from across the Nile with his warriors.”
“Clan of the Night?”
“These are those who claim to be descendants of Set, the god of war. It was a confrontation with our clan who worshiped Goddess Basted, the daughter of the sun god Ra.”
Is it the sun and the night?
Something smells like rice cakes.
“Even though I, the great warrior of the sun, died in the last battle, the clan of the night was on the verge of destruction, so it must have been completely cut off by now.”
“No, that’s a flag.”
“Well? What do you mean?”
“When people usually say something like that in a comic book place, it’s like, ‘Wow! Actually, the Night Clan was still alive!'”
“Fufu, you sound really funny too. Cartoons are just cartoons. How will the legacy of a clan that disappeared thousands of years ago continue to this day?”
When the most unrealistic being in the world said such a thing, I had nothing to say.
“Anyway, this conversation ends here. Let’s talk more solidly.”
“Right. Then let’s talk about something else.”

Mahesh said, stroking his chin.
“As far as I can see, you have great qualities as a warrior. So, to be honest, it’s a bit pricey. Leaving the raw stone as it is.”
“No, it’s only difficult for me to say things like that.”
“Actually, in a time of peace, an excessively strong force could be poison. I don’t intend to push my opinions blindly. It is not good for the dead to interfere with the living in the first place.”
“…don’t you think there is something inconsistent with your usual behavior?”
As far as I know, because of the contract I had with him, when I graduate, Ryuji will travel all over the country to break the seal.
Because of this ghost who wants to fight the strong.
But the pharaoh who heard me said hahaha! He smiled cheerfully and patted my shoulder.
“Ryuji, that guy is already deeply connected with me, so it doesn’t matter. It was all fate that he met me in the first place.”
“fate?”
“Something that must happen, or something that must happen. It can be expressed in any way depending on the person speaking it. The fact that he threw himself into the sand dunes to save his family, and that he met me there and signed a contract with him, is only one of the great currents. It would be correct to assume that it was originally going to be like that.”
I knew for a long time that Mahesh wasn’t an ordinary ghost, but it seemed like he had some great secret.
However, it must have been far-fetched for me as a third party to dig out the secret.
“In that sense, I have high expectations of you.”
“If you look forward to it?”
“Originally, destiny is like a waterfall on the Nile that cannot be reversed, but the people around you are twisted little by little, big or small. As a warrior and a priest, I can feel it.”
“……”
To be honest, I was very surprised to hear what he said.
Because Mahesh was seeing half through my essence.
“I don’t know if that will be a good thing or a bad thing for me, but at least let me go in the right direction in your opinion. That’s all I want from you.”
After saying that, Mahesh got up first.
“Let’s go back. contractor. The sun will set slowly.”
Then, while Chiaki and Ryuji were roasting sesame seeds, she replied, “Huh? Is that so?” and got up from her seat.
The way home was the same anyway, so we left the park and walked towards the sunset.
***
It has been almost a week since the second semester started.
Even the children, who were initially reluctant to attend school, are gradually getting used to a regular life.
I was one of them, and my school life was going well.
But recently, something I’m concerned about has happened.
“……”
“Ryu-chan? Why is it all of a sudden?”
“No, I feel like I’m feeling something.”
I turned my head reflexively, checked that no one was there, and tilted my head.
Something stings in the back of my neck from a few days ago.
At first, I thought it was because of my mood, but as the suspicious gaze continued, I was extremely concerned.
‘Chiaki guy, not when you need it.’
Until just a week ago, it was tiring to deal with Chiaki, who was next to him, who whispered that he was bored.
It seemed that it felt too natural for him to be next to him.
Anyway, it was in the middle of talking about jumping, so it was time to continue the conversation with Rika again.
sting!
I jumped up from my seat at the gaze I felt again from the back of my head.
“Who is it!”
Then I heard someone running behind me outside the back door of the classroom.
When I hurriedly opened the door and went out, I could only see the back figure running away.
Satoru, who came out one beat later, said.
“Isn’t that Ayabe-senpai from the newspaper club?”
“Ayabe-senpai?”
“Why, the person you interviewed when you broke the dojo.”
Hearing those words, I remembered the past for a moment.
‘How do you feel right now, Yoosung Kim?’
‘Ah, please do the interview through me, the manager.’
… That’s the person Rika was dealing with back then.
“But why is such a person watching me?”
“Are you being watched?”
“It must have been about five days.”
“Are there not enough articles to be published in the school newspaper these days?”
He said that he belonged to the newspaper department, so it was not without possibility.
“But that senior didn’t prepare for the center exam?”
Do you have enough time to follow me all day?
Hearing my question, Satoru shrugged and answered.
“That person is very good at studying first. He’s going to be in the top ten in the third year, right?”
It was even more a mystery that such a person followed me behind my back for five days.
“If you’re curious like that, why don’t you go and ask yourself?”
“What?”
“You’re the student council. Get rid of them with the authority of the dark student council.”
Saying that, Satoru pretended to cut his throat.
The classmates who were watching it begin to talk.
“Kim-kun is talking about seniors?”
“Are they buried in cement and dumped in Tokyo Bay?”
“I won’t see you from tomorrow.”
It felt like something was terribly misunderstood.
When I look at Satoru, who is the culprit, with an axe’s eye, what a! get hot! He hurriedly ran to his seat.
After being left alone in the hallway, I sighed a little and decided to think about the rest of the work at lunchtime.
***
Lunch hour.
When I visited the student council for lunch after a long time as well as to consult with the newspaper department, I found the vice president traveling in front of a laptop and asked.
“Why?”
“Hold on! I could have caught it with just a little bit more! Suddenly, aggro jumped into the bed next to me and died!”
Hearing those words, I glanced at the screen of the senior’s laptop.
Dark fantasy-style games that are popular these days were running on the screen.
“…be strong.”
After I said that to the mentally shattered vice president, I looked at the president sitting in my assigned seat.
“Chairman, have you eaten?”
Then the president smiled slightly and shook his head.
“Not yet. Somehow, I thought something good was going to happen today.”
Saying that, he got up from his seat and sat down first on the sofa.
“Boa Hani, Yoosung-kun doesn’t seem to have eaten yet, so let’s eat together.”
“Yes, thank you.”
I gladly accepted the president’s invitation and sat down on the sofa opposite.
