< Spider Web 5 >
An old man who asks me to take good care of the fairy tale and then begins his farewell to the fairy tale.
The old man spoke again, stroking the spider’s head with trembling hands.
“Yohwa, please follow this Confucius. Your father is now old and can no longer take care of you. Do you understand? Gulp! Gulp! If you cannot overcome your hunger and suck other people’s genitals, people may harm you. Please follow this man and live a long life.”
After the old man finished speaking, tears fell from his eyes, and strangely enough, tears also fell from the tentacle legs of Namgung Seol, who had been listening to the old man, and flowed to the floor.
It’s amazing that real tears fall from those eyes, but it’s even more amazing that they can express the emotion of sadness.
Looking at that, I thought that the old man had really raised the spider called Yohwa with great care.
If a pet can understand human speech or emotions and react to them, it means that the pet has developed a good rapport with its owner during the raising process.
The intelligence, ability to understand human speech, and responsiveness to the owner’s emotions are proportional to the amount of time spent between the owner and the pet.
‘To that extent, I would have practically lived with her like a daughter.’
A slight desire arises at that sight.
A talent like that is rare to find here.
The old man asked cautiously, wondering if he could help raise the magician since he was an experienced person.
“Old Master, would you like to come with us to Sacheon? Wouldn’t it be better to go with us rather than just part ways?”
He may be old, but if he’s been raising demons for twenty years, he must have a lot to learn.
When I asked in a cautious voice, the old man answered with a tearful smile on his face.
“Your Majesty, I am very grateful for your words. But I am no longer old enough to endure such a long journey. And my family’s graves are here, so how can I leave? Cough!”
It is true that he looks quite sick and is also too old to be going on a long ship voyage.
Moreover, if the family grave was located here, it was natural to want to be buried here.
So I nodded with regret and decided to ask what I was curious about.
“Then, could you share with me your experience in raising a fairy? I guess it’s my first time with a landowner like that.”
An old man nods his head, wiping away tears at my words.
The old man answered with a happy expression.
“Ask me anything and I will answer to the best of my knowledge.”
Since you can obtain the breeding know-how as it is, the words of an experienced person are like the bible.
I decided to ask the old man the first thing I was most curious about.
“Ahem. What I’m most curious about is how to give it that yang energy···.”
Since nothing is more important than food, the most curious thing is, of course, how do we solve this guy’s meal problem?
I was always curious about how to give yang energy, even though I was told to, so I asked the old man about it first.
Then the old man’s absurd answer is heard.
“You can just let me wash it.”
“Suck, suck!?”
When the old man suddenly replied that he could just suck it, he looked startled and said, “Please suck it.” The old man held up his finger and said,
“Yes, you can let her suck your thumb. It would be best if you let her lick your palm or any part of your body. It seems that if you sleep together, your energy is transmitted.
But why are you so surprised? Is it still too early to touch it?”
‘Oh, that, that’s right. Of course it would be the cow’s, finger. I was needlessly nervous.’
Of course I thought it was a finger, so I answered the old man’s question while wondering why I was surprised.
“Oh, no. You can touch it.”
So I approached the old man, crouched down next to him, and patted his real head, and the old man looked pleased.
“As expected. My eyes weren’t wrong.”
“Then, which mouth is it? Is it your real mouth?”
And when asked whether he should put his finger in the spider’s real mouth, the old man put his finger in the mouth of the pedipalp, that is, the tentacle legs imitated by the spider, and said:
“No. I actually use it sometimes to numb something and take the yang energy this way.”
Certainly, the pedipalps are organs used both for hunting and mating.
It was understandable that it was used to suck out energy like yang energy.
“Take a look. Here. If you put your finger in your mouth, the person who has had their yang sucked will immediately become what you consider the most beautiful.”
And just as the old man said, Pedipalp, which had the appearance of Namgung Seol, began to change in an instant from the crown of his head, like waves spreading out.
-Slurp.
Her changed appearance is that of a country woman in her thirties.
It wasn’t the kind of appearance one would call beautiful, but it was probably the face of the person the old man loved the most.
As I stared at the old man with that thought in my mind, the old man nodded and said as expected.
“Yes, this is my already dead wife. Knock knock! Knock knock! Knock knock!”
Now that I think about it, he’s an old man who’s old and sick, but he gave his yang energy to Yohwa.
The old man began to cough, as if he was going to suffocate.
“Are you okay!?”
Cold sweat beaded on the old man’s forehead.
When I asked with a surprised expression, the old man nodded with a bitter smile.
“Yes, I really wanted to see this face before I die, so thank goodness. Don’t worry. I only gave you a little. Would you like to try it? Knock knock!”
It was when I put my finger into the mouth of Pedipalp, who looked like a country woman, at the old man’s words to try it once.
I felt like I was running at full speed and my energy was drained, and then the guy’s appearance started to change from the top of his head.
-Slurp.
But something strange happened.
What has changed is not the human form, but the appearance of a red, faceless mannequin.
The old man opened his eyes wide in surprise at the sight.
“What is this!?”
A gaze looking at me with wide eyes, as if extremely surprised.
The startled old man and I were reflected in the spider’s real eyes.
“How is this?”

It was clearly said that she would transform into the most beautiful appearance, but rather than transforming, it felt like her disguise had been released.
A panicked voice came out of the old man’s mouth.
“I’ve never seen anything like this before. This is clearly the only time a demon appears before it takes human form…”
It was nice to see the spider’s true form, but I felt the hot gaze of the Poison Squad warriors on the back of my head.
I thought, this is going to be a big problem.
What the Namgung family warriors and the villagers around Hwangsan praise is Namgung Seol’s beauty.
The reason why Yohwa was able to maintain Namgung Seol’s appearance was because most of the villagers recognized Namgung Seol as the most beautiful woman in the area.
That’s why he could continue to maintain Namgung Seol’s appearance.
Perhaps, just like that, our party’s warriors will recognize their older sister as the best.
If we think about what the great lord of Gupae said in Haenam Island, it is clear that the warriors of our family were those who praised my older sister’s beauty.
Tang Hua-eun, the pride of Tang families and the most beautiful woman in Central Plains.
But that guy sucked my yang energy, but the demon didn’t turn into my older sister?
Because I’m sure you’ll think this is tantamount to treason.
When you suck me, the fairy must definitely change into your older sister’s appearance. Definitely!
And what if my older sister finds out about this?
It was a really serious problem when I asked for a chance and then showed a different side of me or didn’t show my older sister side.
“Oh, maybe my body is paralyzed and it’s not changing properly!”
“Oh, that could be true. Cool!”
After roughly explaining the situation and avoiding the crisis for the time being, he asked the old man a few more questions and asked the old man’s master to take him home.
And then I ran straight to my older sister.
No matter how much I thought about it, I thought that the reason the demon didn’t transform into my older sister was because I hadn’t experienced my older sister myself.
‘Even if I liked poison so much, would my true self have come out because I liked it more than my sister? This must be for another reason.’
I thought that rather than just watching and appreciating something, I needed some kind of skinship that would make my older sister feel something inside my head.
That is why I asked the servants of Namgung family to find the direct lineage of Namgung family.
He grabbed the wrist of his older sister, who was talking to Namgung Seol in the pavilion where he had once met Namgung Seol, and spoke.
“Madam, I have something urgent to tell you, so please speak to me for a moment.”
“Cow, cow dragon. Why?”
“oh!”
Two women blushing at my wild behavior.
My sister looked surprised, but didn’t refuse.
My older sister, pretending not to be able to win, grabbed my wrist and dragged me behind the secluded grassy area inside Namgungga.
As I stopped to check my surroundings, my older sister asked me with a nervous expression.
“Little Dragon, uh, why are you doing that?”
I answered my sister’s question with a calm voice.
“I hope you listen without misunderstanding. No. It wouldn’t be bad if you just misunderstood.”
“yes?”
Yeah, since it came to this, it might have been better to just misunderstand it.
“Madam, I know it’s sudden, but could I hug you?”
“yes!?”
My older sister was startled when she was asked if she could hug me.
But now it’s an emergency.
If the fairy turns into my older sister, it will be good for me and my older sister too.
I stared blankly at my older sister. She had a bright red face and was wiggling her fingers.
And the ants spoke with one voice.
“Ah, you figured it out···.”
My sister asks me if I figured out something when I asked her to hug me just once.
When I blinked, wondering what she meant, my older sister suddenly explained that it was a misunderstanding.
“Well, I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t sure. I only saw it in books, so I’m not sure. That’s why I’m going back to my family to check with my grandfather and father for sure…”
‘what?’
The answer of the sister who doesn’t know English.
But my sister must have interpreted my gaze differently, as she closed her eyes tightly and nodded.
“Yes, that’s right. The landlord’s name is Inmyeonjiju (human-faced spider) Shi, the ten-year-old poison.”
‘No! You said you were given teenage poison!?’
I thought it was an unusual spider, but it’s a teenage poison.
My older sister, who was a tea lady, spoke while digging the ground with her toes, which was different from her usual behavior.
“I, I never intended to fool you, Little Dragon. Well, it’s my first time hearing about bodies changing. I thought it would be best to make sure of it···.”
I wondered why my sister was so embarrassed, but when I thought about it, it was clear that our contract had a condition that if I caught one teenage poison, my sister would become mine.
I guess he was a bit taken aback by the fact that it came sooner than expected.
Still, a contract is a contract.
I looked at my sister without answering, and she nodded while spreading her arms and closing her eyes tightly.
Does it feel like they’re giving a reward?
After a brief moment of having my older sister engraved in my head, I arrived at the training ground while repeating to myself a million times that I thought my older sister was the prettiest.
As I put my finger into the mouth of the slightly revived boy before my sister’s warmth had cooled down, the boy slowly began to transform into my sister’s appearance.
‘Okay!’
And only then did the poisonous snake in the Tang family show me a look of respect again.
‘I’m telling you, there’s nothing easy in life.’
***
The human-faced monster recovered its health in about two days.
“I’ll take it out tomorrow, so just be quiet for a day.”
-Kishi!
Another thing we find out as the fairy awakens is that the fairy is a much more gentle child than we thought.
It felt like I couldn’t stand hunger when I didn’t have yang energy, but when I was full, Yohwa was very obedient and listened well.
To begin with, spiders are not very active animals, so they spend most of their time quietly sleeping.
When we tried to get Namgungga out of the cage, he broke the cage himself and came out, so it seems he is not weak or cowardly.
That was the day I left Namgungga.
Bad news awaited Yohwa.
This was because, when I went to the old man’s house to say hello for the last time, I found that the old man had returned to the embrace of his family.
-Kishii···.
A ghost who held onto a dead old man and cried for a long time.
Instead of a shroud, the old man was wrapped in a fairy’s thread and buried next to the old man’s family tomb to which the fairy had guided him.
“Old man, may you be reborn in paradise. I will take good care of you, Yohwa, for the rest of my life. Yohwa, will you not go with me as your father said?”
-Kissit!
After a simple funeral for the old man.
We hurried our steps and arrived at Ankyung, the closest port to Namgungga.
He was barely allowed to board the ship after giving bribes to the ship owner, who was embarrassed by the fact that he had to burn the ghost.
And as soon as we got on board, the boat started to go upstream.
To Sacheon, where the Dangga and Seokcheok are waiting.
