Myst, Might, Mayhem Chapter 168

< Episode 49 Variable (4) >

-You really?

“yes. “I had a relationship.”

‘!!!!!!!!!!’

Cheongryeong’s expression hardened at Mo Kyung-un’s straightforward expression.

I thought he was a stone-faced guy who had no interest in relationships between men and women, but I didn’t expect words like this to come out.

Even if I became a vengeful soul, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

But the moment Cheongryeong remembered that, his face turned red and his expression became distorted.

‘······Wait a minute, that middle-aged woman looks just like me.’

At this, Cheongryeong could not hide his embarrassment.

Even though the atmosphere is different, if you look at their appearance alone, you and Wei So-yeon are so similar that you can almost think of them as sisters or twins.

But you had a relationship knowing that?

At that moment, Cheongryeong pictured himself in Wei So-yeon’s image.

Maybe that’s why

-you! you! It’s going really well.

“yes?”

-That middle school girl resembles me…

Cheongryeong could not bear to continue talking.

I tried to ask him if I had a relationship with him even though I knew he looked like him, but I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t continue talking.

‘This kid is really…’

Are you asking because you don’t know why this is happening?

It would have been okay if it didn’t look like him.

However, when she saw that middle-aged woman, she would have thought of herself, and having a relationship with her made her feel not only embarrassed but also uncomfortable and strange.

Could it be that this bastard was thinking of himself while sleeping with that girl?

And so on.

Then Mok Gyeong-un said.

“Hmm. I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I don’t think there will be any problem. “If there is, it would be better to deal with it before then.”

-······.

Cheongryeong frowned at Mo Kyung-un’s words.

Am I making too much of a fuss on my own?

Looking at this guy’s attitude, he seemed cool-headed about everything, just like usual.

Does that mean that he really didn’t have any feelings or selfishness in having a relationship with a middle-aged woman named Wi So-yeon who looked like him?

‘······Is it any weirder to hope that this guy would have those feelings in the first place?’

If you think about it, Mok Kyung-un didn’t really show any emotions other than his murderous obsession to find the person who killed his grandfather.

The smiling face was also just a false emotion meant to reassure the other person and put them off guard.

The only time he smiled sincerely was when he saw blood.

Considering this, it is really nothing more or less than having a relationship for a purpose.

Although it is questionable whether this guy has any desire for the opposite s*x in the first place.

‘If it’s something like that, it’s okay to pay attention…’

There is no such thing.

I keep getting worried.

I thought that after becoming a vengeful soul, all emotions other than resolving resentment would have disappeared, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

I couldn’t help but feel worried and uncomfortable, thinking that it would have been better if I didn’t know.

However, I didn’t even bring this up anymore because I was afraid it would look weird if I made a fuss about this guy when nothing was wrong.

Then Mok Gyeong-un came up to her and pointed at something.

“But what is that?”

-that?

“yes. “No matter how you look at it, it looks like the portrait painted on that scroll.”

-······.

Cheongryeong kept his mouth shut at Mo Gyeong-un’s words.

Even if that wasn’t the case, it seemed like he would ask about himself in that scroll.

‘Maybe I should have just torn it up.’

I was worried that this guy would be suspicious.

But I couldn’t bear it.

That was the last trace of himself left in the world, and he…

At that time, Mok Gyeong-un sighed and smiled.

“It looks like a peony, wearing such a beautiful red bridal gown and a gold crown. “I guess there was a wedding at least?”

‘!?’

Cheongryeong’s eyes wavered at Mo Kyung-un’s words.

[It looks like a red peony.]

A voice that ripples through my head.

A hundred years had passed and now even my memory was fading, and that voice came to mind.

She slowly looked at Mo Qingyun.

It’s truly unique.

I can’t believe I’m hearing those words from a long time ago again through this sentient being.

I can’t help but feel really nostalgic.

‘hmm?’

A strange look appeared in Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes.

I couldn’t help but be puzzled by the vague expression on Cheongryeong’s face, which I had never seen before.

Is there a story behind the picture in this scroll?

With a face like that, I couldn’t ask anything more about the portrait in bridal attire.

But then something came into Mok Gyeong-un’s field of vision.

‘!?’

It was a censer in front of an old altar.

It is a shrine that looks like a place no one visits, with dust piled up and cobwebs everywhere.

However, the only clean things in the shrine were the scroll portrait and this incense burner.

Traces of broken incense in the incense burner.

And it’s not just the floor in front of it where dust piles up.

‘Is someone visiting here regularly?’

Otherwise, it couldn’t have been like that.

In this old shrine, there is a hanging scroll with a portrait of what is presumed to be the image of a young spirit, and he visits this place regularly…

Could it be that they are blood relatives or acquaintances related to Cheongnyeong?

It was then.

-Startle!

Mo Kyung-un looked in a certain direction.

Then, he took out the wooden doll he had in his arms and hurriedly sent a message to Cheongnyeong.

-Cheongryeong!

-I felt this too.

She too felt almost the same as Mo Qingyun.

It was a very subtle energy, but it was almost identical to the main force wave.

That meant that the owner of this main force was very close.

Mok Gyeong-un made a hand sign and recited a small spell.

Then, Cheongryeong’s body changed into smoke and soon penetrated into the wooden doll held by Mokgyeongun.

-SSSSSSSS!

Mok Gyeong-un sealed the spirit inside a wooden doll and placed it in his bosom.

And as I was about to go out, I stopped.

He sensed that the faint main force was being felt outside the door of the shrine.

‘It’s fast.’

So, first of all, I tried to hide myself by jumping to the ceiling using the Gyeongshinbeop.

It was right then.

-Suuuuuuu!

At that moment, the surrounding area was covered with dark shadows, and Mok Gyeong-un’s new form, which was about to hit the floor, stopped in that state.

‘!?’

What on earth is this?

It was such a strange phenomenon.

My body, which was trying to jump, is frozen in this position and cannot move.

It was as if my entire body was paralyzed and I could not feel any of the sensations in my body. This was my first time experiencing this.

I have to hide myself right away. What’s going on?

It was a car I was puzzled about.

-Kkeeeeeek!

The door opened and someone came inside.

Although the shrine was covered in darkness, it was clearly visible to Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes.

It was a man who looked to be in his early to mid-40s, wearing a gray military uniform with a yin and yang drawn on it.

Although he had a somewhat ordinary-looking face, Mok Gyeong-un was able to tell that he was a person from the Wonsalgak thanks to the robes he was wearing.

‘Bangsul?’

So, is it because of witchcraft that your body has become stiff now?

If that were the case, I would be really surprised.

What kind of magic is this?

All five senses cannot be felt, and only consciousness is intact.

-Rebirth? Rebirth? Why are you doing that?

Cheongryeong also urgently asked about the strange phenomenon that happened to Mok Gyeong-un.

However, even though he was conscious, he was unable to move his entire body, so Mok Gyeong-un was unable to respond to her words.

Why can’t I move my body?

-Jump, jump, jump!

Bangsa approached with the sound of footsteps.

Seeing this type of radiation, Mok Gyeong-un thought that this technique was more dangerous than anything he had known before, even though he did not know what it was.

Where can you find such a fraudulent technique, a technique that stops everything except consciousness?

Isn’t this a method that can kill anyone if you put your mind to it?

-Rebirth! Rebirth!

The young man’s voice rang loudly.

She believed that Mok Kyung-un’s condition was dangerous and was wondering whether she should immediately destroy the wooden doll and leave.

– Damn it!

As Bang Bang approached her almost ten steps away, she ended up breaking the wooden doll and trying to get out.

I was in a situation where I would wake up like this.

-Click!

When Cheongryeong exerted his magical power to destroy the wooden doll, it cracked.

It was that moment.

-Stop!

-uh? you?

Cheongryeong, who was about to break the wooden doll and leave, stopped.

-Are you okay?

-yes. Suddenly all my senses came back.

I don’t know why, but the moment Cheongnyeong cracked the wooden doll to break it out, the feeling in his whole body returned.

But something even more bizarre happened here.

The very moment my senses came back, the figure of Bang Bang, who was walking, disappeared.

It wasn’t the concept of ‘moving quickly’.

It suddenly disappeared before my eyes, as if it had never existed from the beginning.

It was like, ‘It became unrecognizable.’

-no?

-······What on earth is this?

I definitely felt the main force beyond the door of the shrine.

And didn’t he walk right in front of you?

But suddenly it disappeared.

Since my senses had stopped, it was difficult to even determine the presence or absence of energy as it disappeared without a trace before my eyes.

-I need to get out of there first.

-I agree. Hurry up.

I didn’t know if it was a trick or not, but if I couldn’t figure this out accurately, there was no way to deal with it.

The only answer was to get out of this place.

-Pot!

Mok Gyeong-un flew the new model outside.

* * *

Same time.

-Rurg!

Bangil Jo Tae-cheong, who was sitting on the roof of the old pagoda and making the sword seal, had blood streaming down his forehead.

At the same time, Jo Tae-cheong frowned in disbelief.

What on earth is going on?

Although there were some restrictions, the Chochigeumjutsu time-space jeonmanjeok law, which could not be solved unless the caster understood it, was suddenly broken.

Fortunately, no living thing was touched during the method, so the aftermath was small.

However, this was an unexpected variable.

‘What is that guy…?’

This is not the first time that Chochi Geumjutsu broke in the middle, but the situation was completely different then.

This was possible because the monster transcended the human realm.

One, the boy in the darkness whom I had just seen through the time-space translation technique.

It was so dark that it was hard to see even from ten paces away, but at first glance, it was a 17-18 year old kid who hadn’t even reached maturity yet.

There was no way a kid like that could have done something like that.

From the beginning, when the pre-construction law was imposed, nothing could be done.

At that time, Jo Tae-cheong’s expression became distorted and his expression changed.

Then he spoke in a hoarse voice.

“Don’t be overconfident just because it’s gold. “There is no perfect technique in the world.”

As soon as those words were finished, Jo Tae-cheong’s face returned to its original state.

Then,

“I know that arrangement. However, this technique does not include living beings as objects of recognition. You know that too, right? Wait… really?”

-Wow! Wow!

Jo Tae-cheong frowned again and spoke in a hoarse voice.

“Hehehe. “You found the answer.”

As soon as he finished saying those words, Jo Tae-cheong’s face returned to its original state, and the corner of his mouth turned up in a frown.

“Right.”

A high-ranking vengeful spirit that swept through the inner chambers of the Heaven and Earth Association.

By predicting the path of the spiritual power moving while escaping the two food spirits, the location that was guessed was that old shrine.

Even so, it was a car that made me curious about what it was trying to hide.

But it seemed like I found the answer with this.

* * *

Meanwhile, Mok Kyung-un was quickly heading somewhere.

Cheongnyeong asked Mok Gyeong-un.

-Where are you going? First, back to carcinoma…

-no. I need to hurry before then.

-What do you mean? The radiant guy who uses strange, unknown techniques is probably anxious to find you and his true identity, but for now, it’s better to be self-respecting until a solution can be found…

-So I think we need to hurry up.

-what?

-I saw his face, but he also saw a glimpse of my face. It won’t take that long to find it.

-You really?

-If I could kill him, I would.

As Mok Gyeong-un said those words, life flickered in his eyes.

The place where Mok Gyeong-un was heading was none other than the vicinity of the old tower where Wonsalgak’s manor was located.
