Chapter 27 – Episode 27- Witchcraft, Youkai Academy

Snow woman

After hearing that word, which is probably the name of the youkai clan, an image naturally popped into my head.

It seems that I have seen Snow Woman once in a comic book I read at the recommendation of Kim Cha-ryeok.

“My name is Yu Seol-hee. Who it is… You’ll probably know as soon as you see it, so don’t worry.”

“How do we meet?”

When I asked Kim Ji-hye, Kim Ji-hye answered me as if not to worry.

“Since I put all of you into the class with the snow woman, we’ll meet today. After going to the other side of the world and doing this and that, I’ll probably stop by the class for a while to introduce you guys during the closing ceremony. At that time, Get used to it.”

“Yep.”

The clock hands were already pointing to half past twelve.

As Kim Ji-hye said, I began to organize daily necessities packed in a bag one by one with a painful heart.

Throwing away half-used toothpaste and underwear.

Kim Ji-hye told me bluntly.

“And, I told you, the other side of the world is the world your father and mother copied through witchcraft.”

“You said it.”

Checking the weight of the bag, which had been reduced by half before I knew it, I answered Kim Ji-hye’s words.

“So there’s a lot of ’empty land’ in that world.”

“You mean there is a lot of land that no one uses, right?”

“Yes, they were monsters who lived together with people in the first place. Of course, in the other world where the earth was moved as it is, the land remains, so there are some uninvited guests mixed in.”

Kim Ji-hye must have remembered the uninvited guests, so she frowned.

Kim Ji-hye, who once smoked a cigarette as a habit, handed me an amulet.

After handing over a stylish amulet with red lines drawn on yellow paper like the last time, I habitually checked the back side.

Seeing that there was no phone number or other writing on it, it seemed that this amulet hadn’t been used yet.

As I was looking up at Kim Ji-hye, Ji-hye Kim explained to me.

“Youkai who eat anything and call their own bodies. Shamans who are heavily armed with fucking ideas are playing the game these days. That’s why, I’m giving it to you just in case.”

“How do you use the amulet?”

“Just tear it up.”

I tried to fold the amulet in half and put it in my arms.

Having just heard Kim Ji-hye’s words, I trembled and looked at the talisman again.

When Kim Ji-hye saw me like that, she smiled.

“Put it in roughly, because it won’t tear at all.”

“I’m still afraid of something.”

Eventually I put the stiffly pinned amulet in the inside pocket of my clothes.

Jihye Kim continued her words after I placed her amulet in her arms.

“The efficacy of the talisman is to call me. If your talisman is torn, I can detect it right away, so just hold on.”

“… It’s kind of creepy.”

Hold on until Kim Ji-hye comes.

I think I was talking about the worst-case scenario, but when I remembered the situation, I wondered if I could survive.

Realizing that I was making a disgusted expression, Kim Ji-hye shook her hand, as if telling her not to worry.

“Don’t worry, I’m not admitting you to the academy for nothing. Most of the time, even those crazy people won’t touch this academy, and it’s going to be okay because you already have a new thing stored in your body.”

Dragon armor.

This divine object, which absorbs shock to the point of death, melted into my body to such an extent that I forgot its existence at some point.

Just in case, when he groped his stomach to check for the dragon’s armor attached to his stomach.

Our house bell rang with the sound of footsteps walking along.

Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~

Get up and approach the intercom.

A familiar face appeared.

“Hanjun, it’s another world! Are you ready to go to another world?!”

I didn’t even pick up the intercom, but I heard a loud voice from outside.

On the screen over the intercom, Kim Cha-ryeok was smiling brighter than anyone else.

While I was sighing at the sight, Kim Ji-hye spat out a word.

“He’s a real madman.”

It was a word I could agree with a hundred times.

* *

After Kim Cha-ryeok arrived, our house became noisy.

It was because Kim Ji-hye was frightened when she saw the luggage brought by Kim Charyeok.

“Are you really crazy? I can’t even take it with this much luggage.”

“It can’t be! Reduced, reduced to this extent?!”

A huge carrier like you’ve never seen before.

I don’t know what the hell was in that suitcase, but it was swollen to the limit.

When Kim Ji-hye snapped her fingers, the zipper of her suitcase opened as if her magic had been manifested.

At that moment, things rolled out of the suitcase with a popping sound.

The objects protruding from the carrier were spectacles.

Protein supplements, chicken breast, dumbbells and discs.

Kim Cha-ryeok’s suitcase was filled with sports equipment.

“…You just buy it over there.”

“It can’t be! How can I put these things that are like my children?”

At my words, Kim Cha-ryeok was frightened and picked up the fallen items.

On the topic of a guy full of muscles, Kim Cha-reeok, who delicately organized things again, proudly looked back at me.

“Hanjun, don’t worry. Even if you go to another world, shouldn’t you continue exercising? If you need it, tell me, I’ll lend it to you anytime.”

Kim Cha-reuk whimpered and closed the zipper of his suitcase.

Kim Ji-hye bluntly looked down at Kim Cha-ryeok, and she declared.

“If you don’t take all that shit out of your luggage right now, I won’t take you to the other world.”

“That… It can’t be!”

Kim Cha-ryeok looked back at Kim Ji-hye with a shocked look.

I, who had never seen Kim Cha-ryeok in shock before, was also in shock.

Kim Cha-ryeok trembled and said to Kim Ji-hye.

“This is my life!”

Lifting up the warak carrier, Kim Cha-ryeok firmly revealed his will.

Seeing that, I asked Kim Ji-hye.

“Do you sell something like that over there?”

Jihye Kim sighed.

“You guys seem to treat the other world as a real another world, but they sell everything. Sell everything.”

At that, I approached Cha-Ryeok Kim and showed him my black card.

“If you go over to the other side, I’ll buy you everything inside, so leave it there.”

It was me who actually got a lot from him while working out during vacation.

As if to return the favor, I persuaded him to go over there and buy me dumbbells and other exercise equipment.

“Hanjun, but what is that black card?!”

“I told you, back in the day, my parents were shamans in the other world. But I guess my parents had a lot of money, no, seriously. “

“Um…! It’s a bit burdensome, but then I’ll leave it alone!”

At my words, Kim Cha-ryeok opened the suitcase.

“What are you doing?”

I didn’t understand why they opened the suitcase they were leaving behind.

However, I was soon astonished at the eccentricity he unfolded.

“Um…! But, isn’t it a waste? These are all muscles.”

This is because Kim Cha-reuk dipped the chicken breast he brought in protein supplements.

“It’s my first time trying it, but it’s surprisingly not bad!”

“……”

Kim Ji-hye silently smoked a cigarette and looked away from Kim Cha-ryeok.

Having lived frugally up until now, I understood Cha-Ryeok Kim even a little bit, and left him alone.

And a few minutes later, Miho arrived at my house.

Unlike Kim Cha-ryeok, Mi-ho had only one small bag tied behind her back.

“Miho, Jim looks fine.”

I asked Miho as I watched Kim Cha-reuk eating chicken breast on a large carrier.

Miho also glanced at Kim Cha-ryeok and smiled awkwardly.

“I’ve already moved all my stuff from my parents’ house, so I didn’t have anything to pack.”

When Miho arrived, Kim Ji-hye gathered us together and put us in a black van.

Leading the black Ben, we arrived at an abandoned house.

Kim Ji-hye, who had stirred up her abandoned house as if she was used to it, stopped her in a certain room.

“Now we move.”

Jihye Kim snaps her fingers.

Then my vision reversed, and I arrived at ‘the other side’.

The world my father and mother created.

I woke up in a tidy room, not in a shabby abandoned house, and took a step forward feeling a thrill of excitement.

* *

The place we arrived was a certain distance from ‘Witchcraft, Yokai Academy’.

So, in Kim Ji-hye’s new car, they set off for witchcraft and ghost academies.

The scenery outside the window was quite amazing.

Unlike our world, which is packed with apartments and shopping districts, this world is full of grassy fields.

Maybe, I thought that there was enough land to live comfortably.

Not only the surrounding scenery, but also the monsters moving on top of it were amazing.

Basically, it was interesting to see if the monsters had their own characteristics.

There were monsters with half their bodies made up of tails like snakes, and there were monsters that were small like little kids but had old faces.

As I stared at the scenery outside the window, Miho giggled at me.

“Han Jun-ah, are you curious~?”

When I came over to this world, Miho, who showed her ears and tail without hesitation, put her chin on my shoulder and whispered.

“Yeah, it’s amazing.”

I nod my head, and again I am enchanted by the scenery outside the window.

Miho looked at me and waggled her tail.

Kim Cha-ryeok was looking out the window with deep eyes, twitching his muscles in the passenger seat.

The look of Kim Cha-ryeok, who seemed to be thrilled and sad, made Kim Ji-hye sigh.

After moving for a while, we arrived at the ‘Spells and Demons Academy’.

“… That’s cool.”

The sorcery and yōkai academy had more features than I had imagined.

The entrance is decorated with stylish statues and the grounds are swaying with flowers and grass.

And looking at the academy with old-fashioned buildings that can only be seen in Europe.

I had high expectations for my new school life.
