7 – What You Need to Recover

Two days ago, Se-Rin Lee woke up from a strange feeling. It felt like the fluff all over my body sensed something foreign and surged up, and it was as if my organs related to my instincts sensed a threat and woke up. I felt the same way.

Just then, this Serene opened her eyes and got off the bed, and the demon whispered in her ear.

[Something is being ceremonious. ]

Her demon, in the form of her red camel, carried her as it were and moved her soundlessly. As if treading lightly on the sand of the desert, the devil’s hooves slammed into the ground without leaving any trace or sound.

That’s where they got to…

[Isn’t this the room where your brother, who loves bugs so much, stays? ]

‘Don’t say that… That’s weird…’

Her older brother, a man with a bizarre relationship who stays with her family until they reach adulthood due to special circumstances, even though they are not related by blood. It was in front of Park Jin-sung’s visit.

[Then what should I say? Should I speak like your sister? Yes if it’s your sister I think it would have been expressed as a non-blood related family register lease living together mate. ]

‘It’s even weirder when you say that…’

The devil and Lee Se-rin grumbled at each other in front of the door without any tension. The camel, with her silver hooves planted deep in the floor, smiled tearfully from her ears and continued to tease Seline, and even as Seline rolled her eyes at the mischief, she did not hear the devil’s words. Accepted everything

hahahaha, I did exactly what your sister said, but you’re only complaining to me. ]

‘It’s not my sister. It’s her brother…’

[Since you set foot in the world first, isn’t it your sister? ]

‘It’s because I gave in from the stomach. With her sister’s generosity…’

[hahahaha, I don’t know how the twins go up and down like this. If you’re a devil and a human and you’re twins, you’re the first, so… The Fallen Angel I know is also struggling to stand above his older brother. ]

The camel laughed silently, raised her foot, and pointed at her doorknob.

[Now, my contractor. My cute contractor who wanted to see through the past and know who was born. For those of you who cannot hold back your curiosity, there is a secret right in front of your eyes. ]

‘Oops, I couldn’t help but wonder…’

[I’m not criticizing. Originally humans are cute, isn’t it because of the way they poke here and there out of curiosity to uncover the secret? As my hobby is finding secrets, I feel love for such a figure. ]

‘Yes. Everyone wants to know if they have a secret… This is normal…’

Gulp.

Lee Se-rin, without realizing it, put her hand on the doorknob and hesitated.

‘Yeah, but… Seeing your brother’s secret makes me a bit hesitant…’

No matter how curious she is, she is a person who must solve questions without fail, but she felt strangely guilty that she secretly peeked into Jinseong’s room, with which she was awkward for some reason. It was because even though she wondered what it would be like to see the room with her family, the thought that it was not a crime to voyeurize strangers at the thought that blood was not connected lingered together.

Especially since she thinks that after this year, she will become independent and less likely to meet her.

[So you should see it now. I don’t know what kind of ritual I’m doing, but if I don’t see it now…]

‘Ah, ahead… I don’t know when or when I’ll see you?’

[ It is true. From now onIt may not be a ritual, and even if another opportunity comes by chance later, it is highly likely that it will be a different ritual, and if your brother dramatically improves his skills as a shaman, you can prepare for someone spying on you. ]

‘Ha, but…’

[It is more so if you are independent there. Now that your brother is married, do you dare to come to this mansion and perform the ceremony? Do you think you will be able to see the ceremony, which will surely be held in the house you have prepared? ]

In the end, this serine couldn’t win over her demonic whispers.

No, as if she had no intention of winning at all, she grabbed the doorknob naturally.

Pretending to be invincible, she threw away the guilt that was bubbling up in a corner of her mind and opened the door slightly, letting herself be entrusted to her curiosity.

The door opened without a sound due to the power of the demon hiding, and when the gap widened enough that they could barely see the scenery inside the room, Se-rin Lee and the demon looked around the room.

‘Ugh!’

But the moment she brought her face to steal a peek at her, this Serene almost let out an unbearable moan.

‘What is this smell?’

It smelled like grilling meat, like burning her hair. There was also the smell of meat that had been rotting for a long time, and it smelled sour and like filth from a sewer. It was a strong smell, as if the mucous membranes of the nose were being hacked with a needle and a knife.

From noble mtl dot com

[Huh, what the hell did you do to smell like this? It smells worse than the cauldron where a witch intoxicated with ergot is brewing. ]

‘My, it smells so bad. However… Why can’t I smell this outside?’

[ …Hmm. ]

Tormented by her stench, this serine, clutching her nose, let her grumble pour out. But the demon behind her looked around her room with slightly ferocious eyes, as if he had noticed something in her.

In the room, white smoke spread like fog, as if something had been burnt, and it was impossible to look right in front of her nose. Black shadows danced in the room, swaying to and fro on the candles on the floor, stretching and shrinking, their swinging arms squirming and wriggling through the smoke like tentacles.

[The snake of the shadow, you see the snake of the shadow. ]

Realizing that something was wrong, the devil raised the power of clairvoyance and put it on his and Lee Se-rin’s eyes.

‘Uh?’

And the moment her power of clairvoyance was used, Seline covered her mouth in surprise.

‘What is that all about?’

What caught her eye was a stage.

It was made of rotten wood, and humus was spread like a carpet on top of it, which was made of rotten wood. Various objects were placed on top of the clay bowl, which was cracked and looked like it was about to break at any moment, and each of them aroused disgust.

‘Head… I have a head.’

Head.

The heads of all kinds of creatures were there.

Snake’s head.

Fish’s head.

Heads of worms piled up like mountains.

Even the head of an elk that looks like it has been dead for a long time.

Heads of all kinds climbed onto the podium and rolled their eyes toward Jinseong.

“-Behold, you pitiful things who died and were buried in karma. Here, inside and outside, your ego has become infinitely heavy. Follow the path of life that you have been entrusted with. Is the road,Come here and follow it to pursue your self.”

There was no shortage of expressing that the appearance of Jinseong, which receives the gaze of numerous heads, is literally possessed of a demonic spirit. Jinseong held a small cylinder in one hand and shook it, and held a bell the size of a fingernail in the other hand and shook it.

With daughter.

[ Contagios Magic? No, it’s much more primitive than that…]

The demon looked at it and tilted his head.

With daughter.

“Come, follow life into the den. Rest. Worms can fly even if they don’t grow wings, and snakes will sprout even if they don’t become dragons. Even if they don’t have legs, they can spur the ground and swim through the air without water.” .Come, cross the sea of incense, put on the wings of smoke and come here.”

Jinseong’s consciousness eventually came to an end.

The white smoke rising from the candle moved to the podium wriggling like a snake, and wrapped around her hair placed in a clay bowl as if a real fairy were wearing a winged robe. And the head began to float in the air as if someone had held it in a hand, and at the same time, as if it had become a single entity, it turned its head toward the cylinder and flew away at high speed.

Two-woong

Two—ung

As if throwing a ball into a cylinder by throwing it with your hand, the numerous heads with rolling pupils began to fill the cylinder. Snake’s head, worm’s head, snake’s head, worm’s head, fish’s head…

Eventually, when it was the turn of the elk’s head, the elk’s bone fragments began to crumble like sand, and they flapped their wings furiously as if they were a swarm of insects, completely filling the cylinder.

Widely.

Jinseong smiled when the cylinder automatically closed the lid and a bluish snow-shaped shape appeared on the surface of the cylinder.

Passes…

And as if knowing that the ceremony was over, the candles in the room went out all at once and stopped blowing smoke, and the smoke that filled the room was sucked into Jinseong’s nose and mouth. The platform turned into a dark liquid, like ice melting under the strong sunlight in summer, and melted into the walls of the room, extending in all directions as if it had a will.

The room was clean as if nothing had happened.

“Huh-ooh.”

Little sigh.

A satisfied smile.

Jinseong was smiling in the center of the room.

[Let’s step back. ]

‘Yes?’

[Now that the sorcery is over, if you do something wrong, you might get caught. ]

‘Yes.’

[Hmm, it’s called witchcraft, so when I thought about the rituals performed by the people of this peninsula, it was a very primitive form… What kind of sorcery should we call this… I’m curious…]

Lee Se-rin and the devil closed the slightly open door and went back to their rooms without a sound.

[My contractor, it’s getting late, so you should go to sleep. ]

‘Huh… Since I’m awake by this time, can’t I just stay a little longer and go to sleep?’

[No. If you don’t sleep properly during your growing years, you won’t grow up properly. All growth must be done properly so that human beauty can bloom, so you should go to sleep. ]

‘Okay…’

As soon as the demon entered her room, she scolded Se-Rin Lee to put her to sleep, and only then did she take her eyes off her and headed for the window after she saw Se-Rin Lee sinking into her sleep.

[Hmm, it was a really strange sorcery. Not from this peninsula. It’s not even from my hometown…]

The devil in the form of a camel bites his tongueHe reached out and licked his nose, continuing to chew on the ritual.

Then suddenly, really out of the blue, an idea came into the devil’s head.

When the smoke moved like a snake.

The very moment when countless heads flew through the sky and dug into the barrel.

It seems like Jin-seong and his eyes met.

That’s what I thought.
