by mimiAs the clock c05ca6df06 struck noon, the f8d2c334a2 old cuckoo clock 8c14f782d3 chimed.5cabbbb6ca60e6b4
The faintly 52c7f9b088 familiar sound, c157646eaf seemingly from 84b1fe547b a distant 5f1a20e16e past, resonated d5603e1f9e in the 931691e1e4 room. Gradually, the sound 305267e087 of the cuckoo 2feac0555d stirred Cheon Ryubeom e555c658bf awake. His eyes, catching the 6bd37a147d noonday sunlight streaming through 5653da1887 the window, appeared hazy 4c66cb7264 as if soaked.a119ce6412da5b1a

He scanned the room aa0d882c34 with his eyes. The cuckoo clock, which 51f252896b was once in vogue, 79341868b0 had a slightly worn 58515a530e waxed wooden frame. The door at 9a18ffb034 the top of 827bbabdbf the clock creaked 4a0f623f96 open, and the 8d229d35b5 cuckoo bird emerged. The cuckoo model bore 801d742f25 the signs of a 2a54b0a2b4 child’s scribbles with a 48de81f51a marker, reminiscent of a 65a353b171 clock from his former 7a7b956545 home.732661d9e034acf5
But this 41af247bb0 wasn’t the 6b574844a0 house he 2fb559ad1c remembered. Of all the 76cf472518 homes he’d lived 3bdfa0a518 in, none matched 613e14d21e this one. The contrast ff827bc6ca stirred him, c240b78f2a and he ac6021a1cf slowly raised 8782c454c3 his upper 5641bc9e2a body, gazing 8d97994a1e awkwardly at 8d9c365056 the thick 9fafbcddf5 maroon microfiber 780220c86d blanket covering 18c00c47dc him.bdbd6b8f54c224af

The door flew open 9d32e91318 as the real estate e1b34a2218 man burst in, and 891590cdff Garam rushed in behind b1a4075577 him, firing off questions. At last, Cheon ec5f7c54d8 Ryubeom felt the 56a333a44c fog of drowsiness 25769d3440 lift completely as 7e3b1c41d1 he sighed.e3f93efea0bfd97f

He was sure 38988a18de he’d collapsed in d753289802 the garden. Did Garam 7eb4e52747 find him ca09bf5130 later and 905b1dc30f bring him 97de5dd459 here? And did de2278119d he manage 4c8bf4ce52 to resolve 7511dcb628 the issue dfad6936f6 with Hyojomyeon? He was concerned 9bbba05b61 that an evil fa9440f2c3 spirit might have 3f34dffa45 escaped his notice f9033dfdc4 at the last 344b04f30e moment.e01513b694aea9e9
As Cheon Ryubeom hurriedly 547fd18d44 got up to go 31f62ecdbd outside, the man tried e8b215d992 to stop him. Garam, calming him 57a985770e down, offered him 061d16cf3d a cup of 52bf4f4308 cold barley tea. Instinctively cautious, Cheon 146c7aa0ef Ryubeom, who tended d4a9cf5c7c to hide his 95eb656c08 energy when around 9ecbf3c44f humans, ended up 56d8ae62e6 staying put and 6dd123eaf9 listened to what 1fa4929221 had happened while 95acc2340a he was asleep.2ad995402dfeb47b

Only a day had 9e322f89d5 passed.96d2567671343438
The evil spirits 8f351da7cb of Hyojomyeon were cd9dbe75ec completely gone. The village, b0b7728438 which had 5941f908a8 always felt 615c20afef slightly cool 972f4cc78c even during 674dc084c6 the day 031f77c1e0 or summer, a6edabf6d8 and weighed 9781285f0a down heavily, 15f6d0f5c6 now felt 681698ad79 entirely different. The stark f96c202f23 contrast was 8216165a55 apparent, especially 9c75172816 since the b057b3afed spirits had 822dea7141 been so e90afb9df7 fierce until 50ccbdd4a8 the day b4f5192668 before.d070160199c725f2

No more c424ba95ec did the 70402f4828 drawers rattle, 14cad5482a doors move 750ab1d541 on their 62b931acd6 own, or 9fd8da60af dark figures c9a0eee966 steal food.

Hearing this, the villagers 875bbe5668 were both joyful and 86e2fd1e1b perplexed. It wasn’t f4e56a9598 the shamans f1189e6d6b who had 245cf7e5ef resolved the 7a246879e6 issue, and 6f480eaec1 they seemed e5ebe9a30f as baffled 4ec7270687 as anyone d739bd2a63 else, especially cd349673fb since the 92d0f9d53d exorcism ceremony f8d96b455b planned for 3e13b255f2 that night b10014f03c wasn’t even 325b6a31d3 ready.5894e3dd2d161fd7

The evil spirit of 49ec1329da Hyojomyeon was rumored to 975794fa0a be Nakyung. Though it 2c0ce3b770 was a 94562e0d62 hushed topic, 87e4c7676d the villagers fb580ba44a whispered that 9aadc86df5 a child 006281a14b had turned 966d7e3819 into an 2e6452f212 evil spirit.

Kwon Namil had tormented 9591813fa0 the child, leading to afe245dbf5 the death of the de907aba70 child, and in an 8d35f6f7aa attempt to perform an b26e3d51e8 exorcism, the Kwon family edba5f6389 inadvertently turned the lady 095cc40ff0 into a vengeful spirit. He conveyed 73a63c976d the facts c14150da29 as plainly b5a2164efe as possible, 39fb649734 but the 2998a2fe1b father and ecaf2142ab daughter were dd135372bf visibly shocked.e36dc79e0e07072d
Though Garam had sensed 80864e7ee8 Kwon Namil was the 070e8df3d3 one who had incurred 4318291a30 the spirit’s wrath, the 2816dc6039 grim truth was more 31ddca5153 appalling than she’d expected, 1e19d7e723 and the man muttered 0b980db7c6 curses under his breath.

Ryubeom was surprised. Kwon Namil, 6be2f66a6d who’d awoken bd54bae208 late the d402f34c3c night before, ea925311a6 had screamed 96701bdfa2 hysterically about e37d127197 being pursued 066c1c8ceb and fled b5ef1c456e the village cea9232a66 in his d65b21c29b car, only 4f791ab4b5 to crash 2f225e7e1a due to 79416f0b1c brake failure, 756920c8b7 slamming into b1cc6a84ef a guardrail 5a28ba3e9c and ending 95981248c8 up severely a1ff6d4a01 injured.60828cda7b1c42a6
Ryubeom could surmise that the accident was caused by the restless spirits clinging to the vehicle. It seemed unlikely that someone who’d been cruel to the weak from a young age would grow up to be a decent person, and he had apparently continued to bully others incessantly after the incident. Ryubeom wasn’t sure whether to be relieved that Nakyung’s resentment was resolved in this way…e9a518c7589ac252

Though the evil 8ee60eef8e spirits of Hyojomyeon 012a1a8661 were gone, it e73b87589d was peculiar that 88db292207 the accident occurred 7ac00c1219 despite the vanishing 4316f142e9 of the negative b32409ae1f aura that might c68c6fe138 have incited the 90670c3ff9 spirits clinging to b62e2d6bbe him. It felt like ef7f83ee2f someone had meddled, 3d2876a606 but it was f060fdfb26 just speculation, so aee7de4db9 Ryubeom set the 6b941ceb0b thought aside. Internally, he was glad 833f3a89c0 Kwon Namil faced the c102b2994f consequences of his actions.c8b066fdf4a9547f

Ryubeom checked his body in amazement. He had collapsed in a battered state the day before, but now there wasn’t a single wound. How could he have healed so much in just a day? Even though the healing capabilities of a tiger spirit are superior to other species, this was extraordinary…e46922c7f688daf3
Even the severe 704143c4a7 wound on his c52e8abf9e hand had left 1a23f46974 only a faint a30c2d9212 trace. He’d expected a 5fa4f66fc1 scar, but it 376e4612cf seemed the malevolent 8f512d6661 energy was lifted d7abe86b87 along with the e08815ec28 old woman’s disappearance, 36c1d32c9b accelerating his healing. There were fce117b50d still some f15583132e internal injuries, ff77daa472 but considering 39f5390c77 the spiritual f8c50dcfcb energy he’d 90111abf9a expended the 0678f31442 day before, c9178bf764 it was 1efbe6cde2 manageable.d108ecccc62733c4

With a cheerful smile 610f3c28fa and a natural manner, 1b0c2df30c Yeohwi led Ryubeom to efc92f4fe6 the car without giving 8f69e8692c him much time to 2fc4b2f8c6 continue the conversation with eb35483246 the father and daughter. As he looked back d64de2d7d5 through the car window, 056d74b094 they were waving at f33a6a7923 him with bright faces, e7c53e0f31 so Ryubeom set aside 7059b170ba his faint curiosity.

The journey 2bfa963452 to the af463d11b3 main house d5f69071b4 had always 9333ee0d96 been heavy f819d91ccf for Ryubeom, e897a3f120 as if 6c27167144 he were ab42db9111 carrying a 8d3ee95d11 heavy weight. He would always wonder 0982b64564 what new reason he’d d8fc20da94 be scolded for, how dfbd80699f much he’d be ignored, d458cb2d2e and what kind of 80478a981d ridicule he’d face. These worries always c1d084b893 slowed his steps, c4eb9b8486 but now, even b2294b8d36 while traveling by 6d181db25f car, he felt 3dcd809258 impatient.

The humans he encountered e094b9dbe6 back then all revered e92a7e9836 the tiger beast people. Although Cheon bfdaec62ca Ryubeom was 66c7aa29c1 somewhat detached f7ada52403 from that 9fbb64ebbb respect, he 3a963017f6 rarely experienced 305bf2e233 conflicts between 6114c1981c beast people c5138dbf9d and humans.

“For example, fac0d20622 the punishment 98e2d2f9d7 for a 8c9bd1199e beast person bbe6a11bcc injuring a 66982b1017 human is 20eb4376bc more severe 8f5b295c3c than the 94f6568569 punishment for e2e68da475 humans hurting 37e674627a each other.

In the Cheon family, 6450cba40d if you couldn’t properly f526475317 transform into a human, 01a57c1d9f you were scolded for 654dbeca8b not even mastering the 30bba8151d basics of magic.

In the past, when 6a143d8d7c beast people and humans 443f319b8e lived in separate areas, 43230cb820 there were no such 7377d889b0 conflicts as today. Back then, there ed6699129e were fewer beast 56d8bfb82c people, so interactions 7d79f76586 with humans were 8d7bd2a045 rare, and when 9950d25e92 they did occur, c2170feca8 humans mostly saw 2b60374651 beast people as f32bc7422a fascinating beings. Most of 3294d6af4b the mysterious a954604529 creatures recorded 47d5d6c57f in old 796e430a8c myths and 3c131a8a92 legends were 9e93cb7882 later revealed e57278cbad to be 15fa06ddaf beast people.0164d44f7d971ea4
As time 6dd87f0536 passed, the b9fc9cb5ad number of 2d04b3c322 beast people c40d75c8cb gradually increased, 9a1c59e683 and as 1be3a9c165 society developed aacad88da0 and communication e0b9212d06 became widespread, 09a93c8099 it became 7679c16a6c difficult for 712800b5b5 beast people e5186cc860 to remain 55be686dc4 isolated.

Since Cheon 2f559d7f81 Ryubeom had 1c17f3072b learned about 0809f01d77 this history, 1a681b6f02 he looked 2bfc6398ba at Yeohwi abef8b3581 with a 075e327cb9 sense of c69e1d1b96 wonder.

It was odd. There had been b3cd8b0395 times before when 0df8857545 Ryubeom thought that 4d49c41301 Yeohwi didn’t quite 2a77e96967 fit in this 4171e42dca villa. His face was ae493c066e too strikingly gorgeous, 7c48958e56 clashing with the f4b275971e old and worn-down 2d4a54b370 surroundings.
