Subdued Soul Chronicle

“Who is that?”

“Who?”

Seol Young and zaha asked at the same time and she answered

“When I first came here, thre was a lot of noise around about this certain ghost harassing people and it turned out to have the name Mita.”

“And when was this?”

“it has been a while. Around a hundred years?”

The two were surprised with her calm answer

Seol young asked.

“So you have been living here for a hundred years already? How can that be? it was just a few months back that your soul was released from the bottom of the lake.”

“I don’t know either. I know nothing. well, I….”

Jung Myung reached for the clothes and pulled something out.

“I got cursed.”

Seol Young and Zaha were surprised once again when they looked at the item. An orb with light shining.

They were able to understand it.

Zaha frowned at this. his eyes shining in spiritual qi.

“isn’t that the evil orb which the fake shaman had?”

“The wishing jewel which distorts the truth and grants the wishes of the people. It caused the flood.”

Seol Young immediately remembered that.

“You remember.”

Jung myung nodded.

“you two killed him at the time and then relieved me of my resentment. But in reality, he left only after destroying the village and that doesn’t change the truth.”

She continued to look at the orb and said,contemporary romance

“I wondered what the hell happened to me for a hundred years. To sort it out one by one. when I first met the two of you, it was….”

“A fantasy world created by the minds of the ones who died and miss Jung Myung. A world where the same day repeats again and again.”

Seol Young said

“Right, that is right. I was locked in with the villagers not knowing that we were all already dead, not knowing the same day was even repeating itself. Then, I met you and got released….”

Jung Myung held out her palm.

Blue letters shone on the small hand. A talisman engraving

“In this way, I received the talisman written by Seol Young, the wish for us to be reorn. It is the world of spirits where life stays for 49 days after death. In wudang theories, it is called as mid world.”

Seol Young just looked at her.

What will happen to the soul that he wrote to have a rebirth of?

This was the first time he was hearing the answer.

“But, in the infinite space that transcends time and space, I found a strange orb. The other spirits didn’t know what it was, but I did. The beads were talking to me. promised to making the wish of mine come true…”

“And you made the wish?”

“Rather, the or looked into the longings of my heart.”

“What was it? you wanted to live forever?”

“No.”

Jung Myung spoke in a low voice.

“it is that I wanted to repay the favor of the two nobles wo saved the other souls and mine.”

Silence fell.

They felt grateful, but….

Zaha said

“But the beads ability to grant isnt righteous one….”

“Yes….”

She looked away.

Zaha mumbled

“Things here seem to be going fine.”

“Do not do it now.”

Seol Young said.

“Aren’t all demonic things like that? we used the demonic qi of the God of Cataclysm, but there nothing we don’t use to do it. after all, thanks to the mis we managed to get information which we wouldn’t in the world.”

Jung Myung smiled watching them talk.

“You are still the same. After so many pears passed… ah, right it is hundred years only for me.”

Seol Young sighed.

“Right. we are only a few months of change, so ti is natural we didn’t change. Well. is there anything you can tell us about Mita?”

“Yes. Come this way.”

She gestured to the two. The place she pointed at was the large hole in the middle of the giant tree. The inside was very huge. Lanterns lit here and there and there were also furniture made.

“Is this the shrine?”

She nodded at Zaha’s question.

“yes. When I first opened my eyes in the world and opened my eyes it was the tree I saw. As I said, there was this evil thing running around.”

She continued.

“People spoke of this Mita woman who died and became an vil spirit. Everyone kept quiet, so there wasn’t much details. Mita was probably not from Silla.”

“She wasn’t?”

“yes. But the status was high. And it is said to possess the powerful power. but she died in a horrible way… that is why she is said to have turned into demons and caused bad things.”

Jung Myung said diligently, searching memories.

“No matter how hard they tried they couldn’t exorcise the evil spirit of Mita and so people dug her grave. The body was taken out and divided into several pieces and a new tomb was built at the boundary between this world and the next. And that is how I tried to seal Mita.”

Seol Young and Zaha faced each other.

“I think the record we were looking for is exactly what it says.”

“it is the boundary between this world and the next.”

Zaha looked at her.

“But that didn’t work?”

“Yes. Well, Mita is a disaster walking around with darkness. What you are both saying is right. none of the methods even worked, but the tree god, which had been protecting the land since ancient times, had the power to stop it. this tree.”

She looked around the cave like place.

“At the time, this tree was on the verge of dying, but the dark qi couldn’t invade inside. I knew that and did everything I could to save the three. Thanks to that, in this place, the life of this tree didn’t get cut down. The wood spirit born from this tree travel the land and protect it.”

“One of the wood spirits found demonic qi similar to it on the bridge…”

Seol Young glanced out.

“I am sorry for before. I purposely did that to find out what power was blocking the God of Cataclysm.”

Jung Myung looked at the two.

“If all this happened due to my wish….”

She looked down at her hands.

“then my mission is to inform of the important information about this evil spirit and make you go back to your original world, safely.”

Zaha asked

“There should be a way for us to head back, right?”

“… there is.”

Jung Myung replied.

There was this strange tone in her words and when Seol Young tried to speak again.

His eyes flashed and then the body of Jung Myung collapsed.

“Miss!”

Seol Young and Zaha got to her in surprise. A thin stream of blood was flowing down her mouth.

“Blood…!”

“It is alright!.”

She waved her hand

“Because a maiden gave up the secret of a heaven, I am being warned. Because I was trying to inform you, which is a taboo. I thought it would be safe in here, I guess No.”

She wiped her lips and lowered the voice

“There is a way to speak the secrets of heaven without being caught. But we need to be prepared. You should head back and rest. I wll contact you petty soon.”

Jung Myung spoke with firm confidence. It felt like her experience of staying here for 100 years.

“I understand.”

The two decided to follow her words.

When they moved to say goodb ye, the wood spirits were gone. It was the same with the one who attacked them

Only the clothes they removed were lying there. Taking it, they went out

And as soon as the came out, the forest light vanished. Only the giant tree In the middle of the forest had a bright light around.

If it wasn’t for that, they might have thought everything was a dream.

“I didn’t expect to meet her like this.”

Seol Young mumbled and Zaha asked.

“is she fine though?”

“Yes. She was right about it being a warning. But we need to be careful though…”

“For now, we do what she says.”

“Yes.”

They went back to the city and into the palace to collect their clothes within and it was time to go home

But

“… where is the home?”

Seol Young was troubled.

“Since you aren’t kicked out of White tiger and not in white robe shouldn’t there be a different place?”

“Wait.”

Zaha said

“Coome to think of it, you are of a aide status in here.”

“Yes.”

“And aide is paid slave to the governor.”

“Do not put it like that. I am just someone who receives and helps the governor and next in line to be the governor. Of course, I didn’t get this because I asked.”

“Still, the aide leaves the place and come stay at mine, it was like when Jin Rim used to be my aide 8 years back.”

Zaha looked at Seol Young.

“be mindful now. my place has rules. No drinking, no pipa and no GO.”

“What is this now? there were no such rules in the original world?”

“High governor and governor are the same to you> high governor can do anything and no one would say a thing, but the governor is a different role. Every move I do should be that of disciplined. Seol Young-rang, if you are with me, then you need to walk right.”

“… I know.”

The two of them walked at the streets of the capital in the moonlit roads however, there was not a single person who passed by and they were tired.

Holing the sack of clothes Zaha said

“Seol Young-rang, it is boring to walk, so should we bet?”

“Fine.”

They decided to monster hunt those hiding around. Whoever catches more wins.

“He who loses will carry it all. How is it?”

“Nice.”

Just then, a wild cat with six tails appeared

Seol Young caught it and handed the body to Zaha.

He won the next bet as well, and handed over the blue rainbow sword. After winning the bet, he had to take off the robe and hand it over

As they kept betting, the path came t an end.

“….”

Seol Young was lost in thought.

‘Weird. I was winning at first though.’

One robe, two mittens, with long cloth, blue rainbow, other sword, his own rove and Zaha’s robe…

Sel Young was holding it all. And Zaha was walking by the side as he said.

“it is a pity that I don’t find anymore baggage to give. Shall we continue this even after heading home?”

“We cannot drink, play pipa or play GO, but we can bet? Nonsense.”

Moving around the corner, they flinched as the house came into sight.

But it felt strange

Lighs were bright all over. the noise could be heard from beyond the fence. It was completely different from the original one.

“What is this?”

Zaha mumbled as if this was absurd.

“Why is my house like that?”

“Looks like you have guests.”

“Isn’t it time to celebrate? The morning moon is so bright though?”

“it is well…”

Seol Young replied and then paused.

Two people stood ahead of the gate with lanterns in hand at first, they thought it was the couple.

Byt NO

Dressed in the former attire and people Seol Young meeting for the first time. but strangely, it looked like he was watching in from the mirror…

‘NO!’

Despite the darkness he was sure of it, so Seol Young mumbled

“… parents?”

At that very time they turned their gaze away.

The son carrying the pile of luggage and governor leisurely walking beside.

And they looked face to face

“….”

Zaha was flustered.
