31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 284)
Kang Seol put his hand on his face and groped. He seemed even more embarrassed than Chi-woo and Jin-ryeo, who were watching him..
“Snowfall, why are you like this??”
“…It's a face I don't know.”
“really?”
“uh.”
Jinryeo narrowed her eyes..
“He's a handsome guy... It's not like I've forgotten the original face or anything like that.….”
“Sure, he's handsome.”
“oh! But that doesn't mean he wasn't naturally handsome.!”
As she said, Kang Seol's current appearance has changed into a very handsome man..
‘First time seeing this… . A face like this.’
I couldn't help but be embarrassed because his face was replaced by a face I had never seen before..
If he had gotten infinitely closer to the essence like Chi-woo or returned to his childhood like Jin-ryeo, I would have recognized it right away, but it was difficult to keep track of it as he changed into an unfamiliar appearance..
‘Who on earth is this? The face of someone I don't know... Is it really me??’
Even so, I couldn't remember it at all..
He was handsome, but he had no distinguishing features, and other than the fact that he had tear spots under his eyes, there was nothing special about his appearance..
‘This is an imprint on my soul? This man? … why?’
Your appearance in the ghost world is an imprint on your soul. It was so strong that it invaded the soul, whether it was someone else's or one's own, and left a mark..
Intense probably means it's impressive, so why don't I remember it?.
I would have guessed if there was at least some resemblance, but there was no resemblance at all..
In fact, Kang Seol was nervous right after learning that this was a ghost world. I'm afraid that I might reveal my appearance in heaven, where I was wearing a mask..
It may not necessarily be seen as something specific about Kang Seol, but since he was aware that someone was watching him, including the madness merchant Janet, it was better not to reveal his appearance at that time..
I was worried because of this, but what appeared was an unknown man..
panting…
Chiwoo looked around..
It seemed like something was bothering him..
In fact, it was the same with snowfall..
That's why I still felt anxious right after I came here..
“…Where is Seolhong??”
Chiwoo was running around..
Chubby buttocks and extra pounds made it difficult to imagine Chiu's slim and slim appearance..
“ah! I'll look for it too! I, that… It must have the appearance of a bird or a living creature.?”
Jinryeo also toddled around and searched the surrounding area..
Snowfall also released crows in all directions to check..
Dozens of views come to mind in an instant.
However, it was not necessarily advantageous for the search. Since the surrounding terrain was a rocky area, if Seolhong was moving closely together, it could have been easier to find if you were looking for it yourself..
‘by the way… Is this what the scenery in your world actually looks like??’
The surrounding scenery is extremely desolate..
The grass was dry, as if it had not been able to absorb a single drop of water, and the sandstorm continued to blow..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
After the hot, dry wind passed by, the chewing sand in my mouth gave me a very unpleasant feeling..
If I were to choose the most appropriate expression for the landscape of the ghost world, it would be an entirely gray world..
Jeopuk…
Jeopuk…
‘footsteps!’
While the crow and the group were struggling, footsteps were heard from the square. Maybe there was a road over there too.
panting…
“Is it snow red? snow red!”
panting…
Chiu quickly ran to the sound of someone walking..
“Wait, Chiwoo.!”
“It's definitely Seolhong! Able to know! I smell that guy!”
Chiwoo running with his tail spinning wildly.
“let's go together!”
Jinryeo also ran after Chiu..
Chiu and Jinryeo turned around here and headed towards someone who was walking from a place where it was difficult to see..
Soon, their images also disappeared from the bend..
and came right back.
panting…
“this! It's not Seolhong! Who is it?”
“Hey, someone I don’t know is coming! I'm not a ghost….”
- Is this a newly formed comedy duo??
- Hahahahaha that puppy is exactly Chi Chi’s true appearance..
- Maybe it's because it's yellow, so I'm happy haha
- It's definitely a Sigorjav species. noble lineage!
Kang Seol thought their reaction was strange. They must have guessed that Seolhong's appearance had changed, but they reacted like this..
‘It's not Seolhong? no, she's right.’
The person walking was clearly Seolhong..
Because I could feel her energy.
‘So, has your appearance changed as much as me? what… You'll know when you see it.’
Sigh…
A visitor finally appears.
When Kang Seol saw the visitor, he immediately realized why Chiu and Jinryeo were embarrassed. Because now, Snowfall was also feeling that embarrassment..
Seolhong’s appearance had completely changed..
While Jinryeo went from an adult to a child, Seolhong went from a girl to a mature woman..
“Look, it’s Seolhong, but it’s not Seolhong.!”
Seolhong did not grow up the same way. There was a slightly foreign feeling.
“…Everyone, you're safe. thank god.”
His voice was Seolhong's, but his appearance was someone else..
Eyes whose depth is unknown, solid and slender lines, even the atmosphere revealed on the outside..
“…this.”
Seolhong looked like her mother..
sword dancer, oil painter.
* * *
“My appearance….”
Seolhong, who had the appearance of oil painting, was embarrassed. Her clothes had become so small that she thought it was strange, but she had no idea that it would change her appearance..
“What the hell is this….”
Snowfall gave Karen the clothes she had originally intended to wear. Soon, with Jinryeo's help, Yuhwa changes from her small clothes to the clothes that Kangseol gave her..
Surprisingly, it was a perfect fit as Karen had a similar body type..
- and;; It's not a joke;
- mother… Sobbing… This is why you made Yongje fall in love with you too.…
- I'm jealous, Hongcheon!
- Hongcheon, the worst tyrant on earth!
Seolhong kept looking down at her clothes to see if her new body felt awkward, and then looked at Chiwoo looking up from her feet and asked..
“But why did Chiwoo become a puppy??”
“It's not a puppy! It's a wolf!”
While they were arguing, Kang Seol suddenly came to his senses..
‘This is not the time to be like this.’
Adventure 33-(Special) ‘Land of the Demon King’
You succeeded in rescuing the survivors left on the island, and only one final goal remained..
That is, defeating the ghosts and escaping Gi Island with the group. But it seems to have failed.
Something left behind on Ki Island has sucked you and your group into an unknown place..
For some reason, everyone's appearance has changed here..
You must survive and return.
Objective: Survive and Return.
Be careful, this adventure is very dangerous.
Be careful, this adventure changes from moment to moment..
Current remaining time 「Unknown」
“I'm glad everyone is safe. First, let's start moving..”
“i get it.”
When Seolhong talked to Yuhwa in the form of Yuhwa, it felt like he was really talking to Yuhwa..
However, the group was talking about various things based on what happened..
Doo doo doo doo…
The sound of a carriage was heard in the wasteland..
“Is it really a person??”
When Chiwoo turned his head in joy, Kangseol denied it..
“No way.”
“then… ghost?”
“maybe.”
“Should I fight??”
“Let's watch for now. There's only one.”
“good! This is how I look, so can you talk to me instead??”
“…okay.”
Doo doo doo doo…
The carriage stopped near the snowfall group..
When I looked closely, it was a cart and the thing pulling it was not a horse..
At first glance, it looked similar to a camel with two humps on its back, but bones protruded from the humps and its teeth looked fiercer than those of a camel..
“woah… woah….”
The coachman calmed the guys down and stopped the carriage..
A person with a bent back and a cloth wrapped around his neck. That face was quite ugly..
Because it was a ghost.
“…You guys are human.?”
flinch…
Seolhong and the others looked at the ghost with wary eyes..
“Kihihi… Don't be too wary. It's been a while since I've seen humans in the land of ghosts. Recently, there have been a lot of cases of people crossing over with their lives still intact because of Yaksha. It's been a while since I last saw you.”
“……”
“how is it? Looks like you need help?”
“Help... what can you do to help?”
“Hop in the carriage and I'll take you to the nearest city.”
“There's definitely a price to pay.….”
“Ahaha… In kind is enough. Like gold or something. Looks like you guys have got something.”
“…Are those things needed here??”
“then! Because there's no one who doesn't like shiny things.”
Snowfall narrowed her eyes..
A choice came to mind.
[An unknown ghost appeared and offered me a ride in kind to a nearby city. How will you respond??]
1. It seems suspicious, so I immediately reject it..
2. Negotiate the price to be paid.
3. Instead of getting into the carriage, offer different conditions..
4. It is clear that he is a righteous person who appears during suffering, so he gets on the carriage without any doubt..
……
“All right. then.”
“It’s nice because it’s refreshing! It’s a wagon so you’ll feel dizzy, so try to ride it yourself.!”
Before getting on the carriage, Seolhong whispered.
“Something seems suspicious. How could a ghost be so friendly?.”
Kangseol smiled brightly..
“I have an idea. Please trust me.”
Seolhong smiled..
“I always believe.”
Snowfall rode next to the coachman, and two people and one horse rode in the luggage compartment..
Doo doo doo doo…
The carriage started running again.
It felt like it was much faster than a regular carriage..
The ghost said, pointing to a camel-like creature..
“Hehehe… If you were human, this would be your first time seeing this Gurdo.?”
“cloud… I saw it for the first time.”
It's my first time seeing this.
Seeing it in person.
Snowfall asked several questions.
“What is your name??”
“name? hmm… Call it Jeonggi. Because that’s my name when I was alive.”
The man seems to be the type that died and became a ghost..
“Regular, thank you for your favor..”
“Well, it's only narrow-minded people who are hostile to humans. Especially here in the ghost world, even ghosts do not believe in ghosts, so being human is no different. is not it?”
“I will take those words to heart..”
* * *
A full day passed, and although the group slept, Snow Seol did not sleep..
The next day, the carriage set off again..
For a long time, there was nothing but wasteland..
“But, somehow it ended up here.?”
“…Looks like he's caught up in the border.”
“Oh my... You got caught up in the gap created by the Yasha..”
“Do you know about Yasha??”
“then! Is there anyone in the ghost world who doesn’t know him? He's as famous as the Ghost King here..”
“ghost king….”
“I know about humans and ghosts?”
Jeonggi’s eyes became fierce..
Kang Seol did not readily answer yes..
I just smiled inexplicably.
“The ghost king is someone you have to be careful of..”
“careful?”
“Yes, the reason why all the ghosts don't run out to the real world right away is because they are watching the ghost king's opinion..”
“Hmm….”
In addition, Jeonggi talked about various things..
By cleverly mixing truth and lies.
“And again….”
“But it is.”
“huh?”
“Why did you cover his neck with a cloth??”
Jeonggi's eyes sank..
“aha… Ahaha… It's no big deal, it's just a little unsightly..”
lie.
At first glance, when I lowered my head, it was clear that the shiny thing was wearing something made of metal..
‘I have a rough guess... It's not time to step out yet.’
snowfall smiled.
“okay.”
“okay. Oh, and….”
“for a moment….”
“what's the matter?”
doo doo…
“sound….”
“sound?”
Doo doo doo…
“Can't you hear the sound??”
“If it's a sound….”
Doo doo doo doo…
“someone is chasing us.”
“Are you chasing me? where… this! Hey!”
Doo doo doo doo!
A spirit that only urges Gur after warning of snowfall. His expression looked quite serious..
“Is there a problem?”
“that… that… Hey, that's it….”
“I'd like to help if I can. What are they….”
On the horizon, a group of riders with black manes were running towards the carriage. It's clearly targeting the wagon..
“Oh, it's a group of thieves! If you get caught, everything you have could be taken away.!”
“okay….”
“What a carefree way to say I see! Think of something, I helped you!”
“Hmm….”
Kang Seol placed his hand on his chin and made a gesture as if he was thinking about something. But in reality, I wasn't really thinking of a solution..
Well, if you remember, it's about what to eat for lunch today..
Meanwhile, the black rolling was getting closer..
Jeonggi became impatient and screamed..
“hey!”
“Jeonggi, I understand that because of the unique breeding method of black gourds, only a certain class of people are trained in the noble world..”
“…….”
“It's an organization called the Heuksaldae..”
Jeonggi’s face became expressionless..
Rather than being shocked, the reaction was, “How did you know that?”.
“…what are you.”
“The main mission of the Black Death Squad is tracking. maybe… They often target those who have committed sins.….”
“Shut up, before I kill you right now.”
Chorak-!
Snowfall loosens the cloth covering Jeonggi's neck..
“In this land, anyone who disobeys the ghost king's will will have a special chain tied around their neck... that is….”
A chain with a unique pattern was tied around Jeonggi’s neck..
“It would look exactly like this.”
“…so?”
“why did you deceive us?”
“Tsk tsk… Are you cheating? Have I done any harm to you just because I wore the wheel of atonement??”
“cost… In the ghost world, things from the real world are useless, so what did you plan on taking them and using them for??”
Jeonggi showed his true colors.
“Did you think you would receive gold jewelry or something in return? you're welcome! Of course you would have quietly entered my mouth.!”
“Were the black squad chasing you??”
“Yeah, it's a shame, but even if I knew it now, it's too late.”
“…….”
“I will use you as a hostage and escape! Meal comes next. If you understand, just wait quietly and put it in your mouth.!”
Doo doo doo doo…
Kang Seol paused for a moment and then answered:.
“Sorry, regular.”
“are you okay. Even if you come and pray now, your future will not change..”
“I don't know anymore.”
“…what?”
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Snowfall released the momentum it had been holding on to..
In an instant, an exhilarating power was conveyed to Jeonggi..
A power that Jeonggi could not even imagine.
“What is this….”
“From the beginning, I knew.”
“you… you….”
“get off.”
Snowfall kicked the spirit.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Wow!!”
Jeonggi screams and falls to the floor..
- Oh, it's a robber.!
- It's called hitchhiking! He said it was hitchhiking.!
- Yes, this is the Hitch High Kick you ordered here.!
Snowfall snatched the reins and whipped Gur..
“Hey!”
Doo doo doo doo…
However, the group presumed to be a black squad was still running towards the carriage, without the slightest interest in the fallen Jeonggi..
I expected that if I dropped their energy, I would be able to beat them, but things didn't go that way..
“Was it a mistake??”
For some reason, that black group appeared from the beginning targeting Kang Seol and his group, not Jeonggi..
- Routine : ????????????? Then why do I…
- sorry… I thought it was a transfer
- Jeonggi will remember this.
- I feel sorry for humans….
At that time, words flowed from them that made Kang Seol hurriedly pull the hand that was holding the reins..
“We are the messengers of the Demon King! stop the carriage!”
“Ghost King? … Now I'm a ghost king?”
They were the demon king's minions..
“The Demon King Duouksini sent us..”
