Requiem of Subdued Souls

Chapter 146: Ghost City (10)

Blue Dragon True Troops, took out his divine object.

The flute which contains the power to subdue the evil. Wanting to show off the results of training in front of Zaha, Seo Geom infused spiritual power into the beginning.

There came a muffled sound which spread from the flute at once. It is a sound that stimulates the evilness within the body and makes it explode from inside.

‘But those things aren’t even monsters, are they even creatures?’

Seol Young was a little puzzled.

Even though there is no way Seo Geom didn’t know, he continued to pressurize the opponent.

At some point, the air began to sparkle.

Aha.

Sel Young finally realized Seo Geom’s intentions.

It is true hat those poison things are just creatures. However, working for the Devil Lair Lord, they must have come into contact with the evil energy.

Seo Geom tried to find the Gu insects through the traces.

Phat!

A mighty flute sound ignited sparks. The bugs floating in the air wriggled painfully. But they didn’t disappear.

Zaha said,

“Seo Geom-rang, there is no need to waste your spiritual power.”

“I will handle the back.”

Seol Young stepped out.

White smoke began to rie in response to Zaha;’s aura which seemed thick. It was telling them where this colorless and odorless poison was.

.

Seol Young hurriedly ran around to escape the Gu. He activated the ring and then held the sword.

Instantly, darkness took over his sight.

The baby dragon opened its mouth wide.

Gulp.

It sounded like a auditory play on him. the Gu insects attacked by the flute disappeared right then.

And that wasn’t all. Senior Oni gulped everything he could. Everything was disappearing. As if nothing was even there.

“How dare you…”

Zaha raised the sword of his and used spiritual qi.

A golden halo like light spread around. It spread evenly around without any blind spots.

“Good. The poison in the air has disappeared.”

Zaha lowered the sword.

“A colorless, odorless poison. It is a shame that the guy here was using it and prepared it all in advance. If I hadn’t known, we would have been dead in an instant.”

Then they looked at Seo Geom.

“Exploding is good but gulping is a lot cleaner.”

“Yes.”

Seo Geom looked down at the young dragon seated on the ground with legs spread out.

“it is quite a lot.”

He knew the ability it had ad the gaze was guessing it.

“Senior Oni is truly amazing.”

Seol Young replied

“The only problem is that they are young to crawl, so it need to give it one after another.”

He lifted Oni put it into the ring.

This is the second time he has dealt with the technique of the Gu poison, and now he felt confident.

“Now you know that he doesn’t stop.”

The spiritual qi was moving in the hand. While he was dealing with the Gu insect, the qi was moving in his hand without realizing.

Seol Young drew something similar to a talisman on the air, but it didn’t form right.

Instead, a silvery glow stretched out and illuminated the front.

The walls turned transparent. Scenes unfolding simultaneously multiple rooms. Many voices and many forms… it overlapped at once.

At the end of it was a logn shadow

“Devil Lair Lord!”

Seo Geom’s sword was clenched.

The next moment, the bamboo leaf righteous weapon of Seo Geom rushed ahead of the Lord. But the shadow vanished

“As expected, it wasn’t the real body.”

Zaha walked forward through countless overlapping spaces.

A long curtain began to hang over the spot where they saw a Lord and it had the image of snake biting its own tail.

The symbol was clear.

“What is beyond this?”

He gazed at it with the golden eyes. It seemed like he wanted to see it through…

“I have no idea about this.”

And soon gave up.

Seol Young approached and said,

“We all have to be careful. This entire place is messed up.”

“Keep your thoughts and head straight.”

Seo Geom also said,

“Nice. Then we move? Let us see what is there.”

Zaha lifted the curtain at once. And the eyes shone up.

A roaring noise came over them.

Under the tent, there were rows of stalls like this where people were moving

“The market again…?”

Saying that Seol Young turned back.

But he could see no one. he was shocked.

“High governor? Seo Geom-rang?”

He called for them but could hear nothing. not only did his sword too vanish, but there wasn’t even the ring on the hand.

‘Even senior Oni?’

He couldn’t figure out what happened.

Seol Young stopped after looking around. He saw the flag and the word ‘alcohol’ was written in large letters. Workers busily came in and out with jars of alcohol.

A familiar middle-aged man was standing at the entrance which surprised Seol Young.

“Back again?”

Seol Young was more confused.

This was the first time he came to the city and the alcohol house.

“Do it right! do not spill!”

There was Su Ryun who was supervising the workers and looked at Seol Young. She was surprised too.

“hey, newbie, I don’t know what you said, but I found the Ghost Room.”

Flags fluttered behind her as she said.

A snake going for its own tail. A symbol of eternal time which circulates.

‘Have I come back to the starting point then?’

However, this wasn’t the first place. It was just the alcohol bar here. Seol Young looked around and hesitated.

People who were busy buying and selling things were familiar.

‘…!’

And h immediately remembered.

When he was a child, he lived in Mount Toham. Sometimes there was abuse, both physician and verbal, there were times he clung to people asking them to help.

Everyone knew of this

Horrified of it

‘Market of Memories.’

Those words popped into his head. It didn’t feel right. it seemed like he had to find everyone fast.

Seol Young looked around as he made his way through the people in the market.

But then,

Among the crowd, someone suddenly grabbed the arm

“…!”

All too instant.

He tried to shake the arm off, but the opponent held on tightly.

“Let us talk.”

The opponent said.

“You don’t know how long I looked for you.”

The voice made him go still.

Suddenly, he realized that he was back to being a child. The child with hair and dressed in silk clothes, the henchman of Devil Lair Lord.

Seol Young dragged by his opponent. He as finally released in a dark place behind the clothes shop around.

“You recognize me?”

The opponent showed off a wide black hat.

It was a neat and nice face o a young man who seemed to have a boyish innocence left in him. and he heard the voice which he recognized.

The sight of him made his heart flutter.

From the meeting for the first time at the swamp of demonic being to when he puked blood.

Things of the past came rushing.

‘Why didn’t you keep the promise? Why did you abandon me?’

He thought he forgot the resentment within the heart, but he didn’t.

However, Seol Young didn’t express anything outside.

“Baek Eon hwarang.”

He bowed his head and said

“What business do you have with me?”

Baek Eon looked at him.

The wild child had transformed so completely that he couldn’t be recognized, and greets politely with no emotions on the sleeve.

It was a face full of mixed emotions.

“In the end you…”

Baek Eon bit his lip

‘What of it? it is all your fault this happened. This wouldn’t have happened if you took me!’

Seol Young clenched his fist and the nails dug into the skin.

“If you have nothing else to do, I need to head back.”

After saying that, he looked at the hand of Baek Eon which was holding his.

“Leave me.”

But Baek Eon seemed to have no intention of it, he held tighter.

“It is our fault.”

“Let go…”

“Father is in critical condition”

At those words, Seol Young hesitated but then he was back to normal

“I feel for you. I hope Mister BAek Sang recovers.”

“t wont happen.”

Baek Eon’s voice trembled and Seol Young realized.

The desperate way to hide traces of agitation beneath that face. He could even smell medicine from him.

“I am sorry, the promise couldn’t be kept. I really am. But it wasn’t that we didn’t come to pick you, but more like we couldn’t.”

Bae Eon spoke silently.

“I was supposed to come with father but then he disappeared and we searched around a lot, found that he was collapsed on the side of the road on the path to death. In the meantime, unknown enemies attacked us. After barely managing to get out, I sent Hyo Wol to come find you but you had vanished.”

His calm words hit Seol Young like a shock.

‘Lie.’

He looked at Baeo Eon.

And calmly said,

“He is treated in all ways but father didn’t regain consciousness. And I only recently found out. That you were poisoned by some strange colorless, odorless poison.”

“Colorless and odorless…”

“The poison is barely out. However, the person is already weak with the serious injury and he is now no different from a disabled person.”

Seol Young’s mind thought back.

Baek San fighting against the countless enemies on the snowy field. To think such a brave man is now like…

‘It has to be a lie.’

“My fathers continues to look for you even after losng everything. He told me numerous times to get you back. if it doesn’t happen then, those words will turn into his dying wish.”

Each word from baek Eon seemed to carefully spoken, like a truth to the dead.

Seol Young remembered meeting Baek san at the inn for the first time and travelling together. He was going insane. Wanted to shout out

’’A lie. Has to be a lie. How did that happens, I want to see it with my own eyes and believe it.

He wants to follow Baek Eon right away

But…

There was this voice in his head which said,

‘You are the subordinate of the lord, how can you do that? with the head of White Tiger troops, you will be taking disaster there.’

The clenched hand began to bleed and Seol Young said

“I hope he recovers.”

The emotionless words got repeated.

“…”

Baek Eon looked at the child and let go of the hand. And left without a word. His figure vanished in the crowd and Seol Young stared blankly.

Is this what it means to have heart break?

Baek Eon rang came for him all through these and he couldn’t go with the guy.

‘O shouldn’t have done that’

He suddenly thought

“Great rang! Great rang!”

He ran without hesitation pushing through the people.

That moment.

A ghastly feeling spread

“…!”

Seol Young was startled which brought him to senses and before he knew it, he was standing on the symbol of snake biting the tail.

‘A trick!’

He quickly moved pulling out his sword sword and swung it. the aura which seemed like a curved slash was used

But he couldn’t avoid the many things which came for him

Pat!

An invisible killing Qi slashed through his arm and blood gushed out with a sharp sound.
