Episode 37

“What are you going to do with the blood that Cheongga abandoned you?”

“It’s not really what I want to do. It’s not something I earned.”

“Then what? The school year is different?”

“First of all, it’s a team.”

“He really doesn’t know English.”

However, unlike the last time, there was no sense of hostility in Cheong Ji-yeon.

“There will be a lot of challenges. Their obsession with bloodlines is no joke. Maybe there will be a direct dispute with Cheongga.”

“… … .”

“She’s great at cleaning, but it’s better to stop thinking that she’ll be able to stop any threat just because she’s behind the scenes.”

“I know.”

But it didn’t matter.

As long as he played the minion of Ambassador Jin Myung in front of the previous Chung Ha, he is destined to confront both her and the Qing family someday.

And if you think about the things that will happen later than that, Cheongjuhwa is a necessary talent. I had to make it mine.

“Because I knew Saun uncle personally.”

I was a little surprised at that. If it was Cheongsaun, it was the name of the father of Cheongjuhwa.

“I won’t forgive you if you even use it as a discard card.”

“… There is no such thing. Because he is the person I need.”

Cheong Ji-yeon quietly nodded her head upon hearing that.

Then, caressing his neck, he released the necklace that was hanging there.

charak.

A necklace emblazoned with Cheongsim-ok (靑心鈺), one of the three main elements of Cheongga. I looked at her with a surprised expression when I saw the thing that Ji-yeon Cheung had brought out.

“Why are you giving this to me?”

“It sounds like you want it. The last time I saw it, did my eyes go back to me?”

Did I really?

I accepted it with a puzzled face. At that, Ji-Yeon Cheong continued to speak, immersed in reminiscences.

“After all, it’s something I was forced to take on. The original owner also said that if there is someone he wants to pass on someday, he can give it to him.”

It was the inner part of the story that I didn’t even know about.

Either way, it’s an incredible achievement. If you can have Cheongshimok, it will be an important key to the story in the future.

“I will not return what I received.”

“You don’t get it even if you give it. Think of it as a dowry.”

With that said, I received the Cheongshim-ok and hung it around my neck right away. Then, suddenly, he asked a question in embarrassment.

“What about the dowry all of a sudden?”

“If you get it, you should go out too.”

Quang.

From behind the closed door, a brief laugh could be heard from Jiyeon Cheong.

I felt it last time, but I really don’t know English. Taking a deep breath, I slowly moved forward.

While carefully touching the Cheongshim-ok hanging around his neck, while thinking about the future in his head.

***

Finally, the short and long period of training for the defense force has come to an end.

There were moments when I was heartbroken due to an unexpected crisis, but in the end, I succeeded in getting the best income.

First of all, he leveled up two steps, and although there was a minus, he got his first A-rank attribute.

‘Spirit burning is a useful characteristic until the second half.’

Even after absorbing the hundreds of thousands of ghosts that were attached to the goblin, there is no shortage of fuel for the time being.

It could be said that it was literally a thousand words.

“… Burn it?”

Next to me, a bulldokkaebi spoke to me with a blank expression.

The words were ugly, but they probably just saw me in a good mood and just talked to me.

Its appearance was somehow cute, and I lightly stroked the bulldokkaebi’s head.

Whoops.

Shh.

“By the way, what’s his name?”

Cheongju-hwa, who was watching it, expressed his doubts with a curious face.

Although it is marked as Hwagakgwi (火角鬼) in the status window, it is only a name according to the classification of the species, and it is difficult to see it as a name.

“I don’t think there is.”

“Then did you build it?”

Obviously, names are important to a food psychic. Because that was the law that could further strengthen the connection with the workhorse and bring about more synergy.

As I pondered, I looked at the goblin with a blank expression on his face.

Gold hair with short hair that reached down to her neck. It was like seeing a dog in a country house to follow me without thinking.

I answered Cheongjuhwa with a slight glance.

“Dangchil?”

“…Did you turn around?”

In the end, after 30 minutes of dramatic debate, the bulldokkaebi’s name was compromised with Gongsam-i.

Although fatigue increased unnecessarily, seeing Gongsam who seemed to be in a good mood in his own way, I wondered if it was okay.

‘by the way… … .’

After breaking up with Cheongju-hwa, I sat down and thought deeply.

After going through the Yeongwol Island attack and this incident of red demons, one fundamental question came to my mind.

‘As long as there are variables in the country, it is natural for the story to change.’

But there is such a thing as flow. There must be an inflection point somewhere, and the situation must change accordingly, but in a strangely out of the way, something different from the memory is happening.

Such was the perm characteristic of Yoo Ha-on, the first main character, and such was the change that occurred in the resurrection ceremony of Gsondae and the appearance of the rook.

There are still too few things I have done for the Butterfly Effect to have occurred, so how can Bi-hyung change the rituals and the lineup of youkai that appear in the event that he has been preparing for before?

Even with regards to Yuhaon’s perm characteristics, there was absolutely no room for me to change anything.

I had my doubts about him.

I wondered if this world might have a different storyline from the 1st Exorcism I know.

And, incidentally, I knew of one piece of information that could support that hypothesis.

‘There was speculation that it was under development, but the last difficulty was never revealed.’

There are three levels of difficulty in the world of Exorcism High 1, which I am originally in, easy, normal, and hard.

However, as the popularity of the work gradually increased, the inside of the file was dug up by curious users, and the existence of an undisclosed fourth difficulty is revealed there.

There is no official name. However, users called it this way.

‘Hell difficulty.’

The main character, Ha-on Yoo, has lost her perm characteristics due to changes in events. Could it all be just a mere coincidence?

‘It’s never going to happen.’

I was sure

My sense as a player and my sense as a developer were telling me the answer.

‘Certainly.’

The place I’m in right now was a world in Hell difficulty in Exorcism Part 1, which no one has ever attacked.

***

After the defense training was over, me and Cheongju-hwa went back to the academy.

Although I spent quite a long time in the defense camp, I still have more than three weeks of vacation left.

For that reason, I planned to visit Gokseong, where Yoo Ha-on and his party left for training after testing the results obtained through this practice to some extent.

‘As long as there is a possibility that this is a world in Hell difficulty, the plan must be completely revised.’

As far as I know, it was at a level that the dispatched exorcists and Yoo Ha-on’s party could work together to command, but I didn’t know there were variables that I didn’t know about.

If one of the future protagonists dies as a result, it is an irreparable loss.

That’s why I thought I’d join them at least before the case got serious.

Whoops.

Whoops.

The first thing I tested when I was seated at the training ground was the newly acquired soul white burning property.

Of course, it was not used at its maximum firepower due to the limitation of consuming the absorbed soul. However, as a result of testing in various fields, it was possible to experience the effect to some extent.

‘If this is enough, the spiritual power that has been lacking in the past can be filled quite a bit.’

In fact, he succeeded in deploying for the first time the Changcheon wall magic that had not been used in the battle against the boss.

In the future, it seemed that the future techniques that were not used due to lack of strength could be used more actively.

‘… It must be said that the foundation has been established to some extent with this.’

Considering the miserable level at the time I first fell here, I achieved great results in a really short time. Now, it’s not unreasonable to see him as a talented academy cadet.

“For the sake of it.”

Fuwaak!

“… Burn it?”

Next, we tested the abilities of Goblin, Gongsam, who had signed a new shikigami contract.

I had expected it to a certain extent as I had been directly involved in the actual battle, but Gongsam’s specifications were also quite high.

Due to the fact that he is based on a goblin, he has excellent basic physical abilities, not to mention the power of the fire it emits.

Even because of the fire nature of purification, I was able to take a superiority over gold magic tricks and other monsters, so it was clear that it would bring tremendous synergy if we joined forces with me.

‘… If it’s like this, what’s the point of holding the fight against the opposite s*x?’

Especially if your opponent is a goldsmith, you will be able to start a battle with a huge advantage.

‘I got a sense of it.’

Although Cheongshimok still exists, it is not something that can be used right now anyway.

So, I slowly finished preparing and decided to head somewhere with Yoo Ha-on and his friends.

It was then that the situation began to change suddenly.

tyring.

That evening, while they were preparing to head to Gokseong, a message arrived from Yoo Ah-in, Seo Ji-an’s aide.

【Help the lady.】

It was nothing more than a signal that signaled the start of another incident.

***

Obviously, just before the summer vacation started, Seo Ji-an suddenly disappeared from the academy.

Since I haven’t been in touch since then, this message was quite embarrassing for me as well.

‘What the hell is going on?’

That Yoo Ah-in urgently asked me for help.

‘Looking at the situation, it seems like it’s a Daejin Industrial business… … .’

At the same time, articles related to the Daejin industry are pouring out on the Internet. If so, it was most likely a problem related to the competition for successor to Daejin Industry, which Seo Ji-an is currently immersing in.

I headed straight to the place indicated in the message the next day. And there I met Yoo Ah-in, who was waiting for me,

“… You came. I have no excuse for suddenly asking for help.”

Yoo Ah-in’s face was not good even with empty words.

As she had hardly ever changed her expression, she was able to grasp the seriousness of the situation with that alone.

“I’ll tell you the details as we go.”

After that, I started heading back to Seo Ji-an’s place with Yoo Ah-in, who had prepared a means of transportation.
