Chapter 113 – Chapter 113 – Origin Wisdom (2)

A white space with no way of knowing where it ends.

It was quite dreamy to see the vast expanse of a white horizon with no sky or ground.

There was no time to lose sight of something like that.

What I had to look at, no, what I had to feel was the dagger’s trajectory flying from somewhere.

Wickedness.

‘Come.’

The feeling of being pulled tight told me that the dagger had been cut down.

I opened my eyes wide and recognized the place where the dagger had appeared.

Right shoulder, back.

It was expected to be the starting point of the axis.

I immediately judged the sharp piercing sound that passed by my ear.

That’s where Hongma-dong uses Chukji.

“Shuttle land”

Widely.

I snapped my fingers.

It was because he forcibly drew the result while completely ignoring the intermediate process of the formula.

It was an unstable axis, but it didn’t matter.

Even if it was unstable or staggered, all I had to do was move to the back of the side where the dagger was slashing as quickly as possible.

Hoo-wook.

The gaze wavers.

My sense of direction was twisted, but I immediately extended the dagger I was holding forward.

As I expected, Hong Ma-dong would be in the middle of drawing a dagger in front of me.

A strategy to target the moment when Hongma-dong uses the axis and counter it with the axis.

I was certain of victory and drew my dagger.

“…?”

There was no sensation in the fingers.

Looking blankly ahead, there was a floating dagger.

‘Shit…!’

I hurriedly tried to use the retainer again, but before that, a sharp pain spread from the side of my shin.

Fuck!

My eyesight fell to the floor.

As I was rolling around on the floor, Red Devil, who had just kicked my shin, clicked his tongue.

“No, junior. I heard that if you put a counter on your senses so ignorantly, you’ll get into trouble. I’ve told you several times that when shamans fight, they basically put one or two of these things on.”

“It’s not just one or two.”

Lying face down on the floor, he replied despondently.

“I make three or four fake landing spots and scatter them, how do I know where the real ones will appear?”

“Your junior will know. I think I just felt it roughly, didn’t I? I think I narrowed it down to two out of three or four.”

“……”

I didn’t ask questions like how did you know that again.

It was because I had already gotten tired of it, and Hong Ma-dong made fun of me every time I did that.

“Still, you’ve improved a lot, junior. This is an exceptional speed of development, you can believe it.”

Hong Ma-dong hummed as he received and threw the dagger into the air.

Judging by the fact that he was sitting on a chair I had made for him a long time ago, it seemed like a sign to take a short break.

Then I got up and put my butt on the ground.

“Rather than that, keep telling me what you said earlier, Junior. Didn’t you say that Kim Ji-hye cut off her wrist after killing the phoenix?”

He was wearing sunglasses with large eggs on them, though he couldn’t see the expression behind them.

I could roughly guess what Hongma-dong’s mood was like with his mouth twitching.

“Hey, really, my resentment is alleviated. As expected, Kim Ji-hye is hot.”

Hong Ma-dong, who doesn’t normally use swear words, spat out swear words as an exclamation.

Apparently, Hong Ma-dong, who is anti-yōkai, seemed quite pleased with the fact that the phoenix had only one life left and became an idiot.

“Aside from that, they said they imposed sanctions on anything else.”

I’m not anti-yokai, but I’m also thick with phoenixes, so I handed over the words Kim Ji-hye told me.

Hong Ma-dong gave him a standing ovation.

“Yes! Let’s just cut off both of my wrists for this. Seeing that old man hesitating and not being able to wipe his shit after he poops, I really don’t think I’ll have any regrets.”

After making a vulgar joke, Hong Ma-dong giggled and laughed for a while.

Whirly Rick.

For some reason, the act of throwing the dagger seemed to ooze joy.

“By the way, junior, it’s vacation this time, so what are you going to do? Just looking at it, I don’t think Kim Ji-hye will leave it alone.”

“I decided to visit the Tailed Fox Clan to get ‘Prayer Wisdom’.”

Prognosis of origin.

After listening to Miho and Kim Ji-hye’s explanation, I contacted Morgan and found out again.

Wisdom of origin was a much more mysterious ritual than I thought.

A consciousness that can read the fragmented future and change it to the good side unconditionally.

I had no idea what kind of ceremony it was just by hearing this explanation, but after hearing an example, I could understand what it felt like.

Once upon a time, a yokai was given a prophesy to ‘watch out for the sky’.

There is no fragmentary and specific explanation, but this one word made the youkai really wary of the sky.

It is said that he was able to avoid a meteorite that suddenly fell the next day.

As the name suggests, this foreknowledge tells us the source from which things begin.

How can I solve this problem.

The magical power of this foreknowledge, which gave me advice on the sources of the greatest events I would encounter in the near future, was priceless.

“What is it, you say prayer foreknowledge? It seems Kim Ji-hye has prepared it well this time, even if it’s a tribute to the foreknowledge, it would be enormous.”

“You know?”

Let’s be surprised by the fact that Hong Ma-dong knows in detail about the prophecy of origin, which was only handed down to yokai.

Hong Ma-dong raised his chin as if recalling the past.

“Of course, I tried to assassinate a certain high-ranking noble from the side of youkai in the past… But it failed thanks to the origin knowledge.

“You’re pretty meticulous.”

Sometimes, whenever Hong Ma-dong brings up old stories, he realizes how meticulous Hong Ma-dong is, unlike his sly appearance.

“Then I told you, junior. A shaman must be extremely detailed and meticulous. So, don’t over-simplify like before, and give a proper reason to see through the story.”

Tuk-tuk.

Hong Ma-dong got up from his seat.

Hong Ma-dong, who threw the dagger in the air and received it, raised his mouth.

“Actually, other people don’t work so hard, but I think juniors can follow suit and work hard.”

“Turn it off.”

Thinking that the pain would start again, I let out a sigh and stood up too.

Then, as I had recently developed a habit of throwing a dagger into the air, I raised the bankruptcy sword in reverse.

“But there is a fighting style like this. Isn’t it a specialized fight before shamans?”

At my words, Hong Ma-dong applauded as if he was admirable.

“You’re quick-witted, junior?

“Why? Didn’t youkai extremely hate it and shaman extremely praise it?”

“That’s right. I’m a super-loving shaman, but…”

Hong Ma-dong smiled mischievously and then lifted up his slightly lowered sunglasses.

A smile was erased from the corner of Hongma-dong’s mouth.

“Anyway, I think it’s the sorcerer side, not the monster side, that my juniors will be picky about. It’s hard if you don’t go through the shaman war, which continues to engage in psychological warfare.

“… Is that so.”

Even if the outside wasn’t reliable, the advice Hong Ma-dong gave me was always useful.

I prepared to run into Hong Ma-dong again.

Hong Ma-dong laughed at my attitude, then swung his dagger around and grabbed it like I did.

“If I get too strong and hurt a shaman I know, don’t say anything.”

Before running away, I gave one last word to Hong Ma-dong.

Hong Ma-dong laughed, and then he said a word.

“As I wish, I’m backwards, so I’m not really a fan of it anymore.”

Whiik.

Two daggers were thrown into the air.

Widely.

The sound of a dagger landing on my palm overlapped, and two voices rang out.

“”Cheapland””

Empty space with nothing.

Above them, two new figures appeared and lowered their daggers at each other.

First day of vacation.

In the other world, I would have enjoyed my first holiday just lounging around in my room.

I didn’t have time for that right now.

“It’s okay.”

I took a look at the luggage I put in the suitcase I used on the last school trip.

Underwear, toiletries, and whatnot.

After confirming that I had roughly packed everything, I shouldered the suitcase.

Since the vacation started and I moved to a room near the shadow branch outside the academy, the structure of the house that came into my eyes right now was very awkward.

Still, after visiting the Tailed Fox clan, it was the house where I would continue to live during the vacation.

I looked around my house once to get used to it.

A spacious house suitable for a family of four.

No matter how you look at it, the structure of a large house still felt awkward.

“Let’s get out quickly.”

Miho texted me that he was waiting outside, so I hurriedly dragged my suitcase and went outside.

As soon as I stepped outside, a familiar limousine greeted me.

“Han Jun-ah.”

I also saw Miho wagging his tail.

Miho had a very happy expression on her face, perhaps because she was glad that she was going to the Tailed Fox Clan with me.

Hehe~ I don’t need luggage. We’ll prepare everything anyway, well.”

“No, but in case you don’t know.”

As I dragged my suitcase and approached the limousine, one of the tall men next to Miho reached out to me.

“I’ll take care of it, Bocchan.”

It’s not as much as Kim Cha-ryeok, but a yokai man covered in ragged muscles took over my carrier.

“Thank you.”

That’s how we set off as the tailed fox clan.

After driving for two hours at a fairly fast pace because there were no vehicles on the road, a village appeared.

Miho twisted his tail and said to me.

“We’ve arrived, Han Jun-ah! This is the land managed by the Tailed Fox Clan.”

“Really? Can I get off now?”

Admire the peaceful surroundings and prepare to disembark.

Miho smiled mischievously.

“No? I have another 20 minutes to go from here.”

“… 20 more minutes?”

“Then you have to go in. In the first place, it’s not the end, it’s the central area where the shrine is located.”

“……”

She knew it roughly, but experiencing it firsthand made her realize how much Miho was the daughter of a great clan.

And naturally, I realized how high my position was.

“What’s wrong, Han Jun-ah. You look like you’re losing your strength?”

“No, it’s just something strange.”

After laughing dejectedly, I watched the scenery outside the window going into the mountains.
