Garim’s phone call had c3b2087bc7 an impressive effect.29d0b9e76feff99f

Although it was made f67649b9d4 in the early hours c1a4d774f8 of the morning, she 0877ccf9fe received a promise that 594905dc81 they would arrive before 717e9ef921 noon.

The person Garim 614a8c6254 spoke with was 93ca8fd484 Kwon Namil, the b28eb820e0 only son of ec8757dd28 the Kwon couple. While it was unfortunate a0bb22e2c3 that the couple couldn’t 0c4aece896 be summoned as they 56910ec148 were overseas, Ryubeom decided 36af158b64 to make the most 9296454aa1 of the opportunity. With the exorcism 824f43a082 ceremony scheduled to 20915ba1cb begin at midnight a991d6ceba the next day, 75555c7469 they needed to 5cb8630f13 find clues as f89a234dd4 soon as possible.338624a29d86340d

From an 8f4af80326 hour before f753eb745b the meeting e7b2a378de with Kwon c4d895001d Namil, Ryubeom 11b24ec368 busied himself e8584a8862 with preparations. He pulled ba5fbfb314 out items e996acae32 from the 59c2ce4758 large bag 3fcd56210e he had 137f3cea02 brought from e73242f66a the family, 5311bf1c5e items that 7fb605d376 would be 5c08a35211 useful for e026f33a84 the task 1cde5fac29 at hand. He wrapped 9e71e4d763 a string 92540f929a engraved with b8b2714fec spells around d21de1c85a his arm a5ce4a10c7 and covered c3ce1e112b it with 2705cbe915 a sturdy 550412d4b5 arm guard 14fa2d7056 to conceal da2333c7d4 the magical 640803fe5b energy from 2bd9d0cbd4 the evil 5c7c35d2d7 spirits.b15ca20f199280ed

Ryubeom had ac0ad7b264 never passed 38ea7db8a4 the regular e6b7f6d939 spell tests 00c7579e21 in the ea18629081 tiger family. He couldn’t handle spiritual 412ea886be energy properly, and the 31e04885bc elders often clicked their 601735c276 tongues, saying he lacked 1f80689761 spiritual power from the 10325724bf start. Even his f29ba78254 cousins mocked 3fbf2bd0a4 him for c3afc3d601 his clumsy db297a92d8 use of 304c1b7b03 spells. Nevertheless, Ryubeom had brought 6f11d32d9f various items from the a2794b7886 family, collected over time d78539ee0d during his activities despite 1cbc3bf057 not receiving any support 6dcd350a97 for the current mission.cd230d99294488ba

Ryubeom, who had 6f2f625545 been speaking excitedly, d35e7cfc0f suddenly realized Yeohwi 815b2dfcd0 had been silent.

Ryubeom awkwardly offered a 2aa7515223 ring, but Yeohwi smoothly b11b35dfd0 declined, saying that the a16e09ff6e young master’s safety was 35a485d0bb most important. Seeing Yeohwi’s usual smile, 5d3a037d75 Ryubeom dismissed the strange 09ec36d8e5 feeling he had earlier.

The meeting place was 8d81b2cf0f a pavilion a bit 98c78f2d03 distant from the white 4f82ad4af2 two-story house under the 2aa5ee9d89 mountain. It was deemed faaf7d63f1 too dangerous to 35783192bc take him directly 69e2be9ab5 to the haunted c03421d372 site.f37583c164a1cb0e

Kwon Namil 85bf5308a2 raised an 96f0b718f6 eyebrow as f6c6b1250d he watched f74ad3c8f0 Ryubeom approach.

Ryubeom was puzzled by his mocking remark. He wondered why this man’s attitude had changed so suddenly.700ea2964e0a33ad

While it wasn’t something taught or experienced in the tiger family, there were humans in society who looked down on beastkin. Some believed that beastkin lowered themselves and signed peace treaties just to blend into the advanced human society. They even thought that the act of beastkin assuming human forms proved who was superior.752533c8c7df73b9

These people didn’t dare to confront large, formidable predator-type beastkin but looked down on smaller or weaker herbivore-type animals. Commonly disrespected beastkin included small dogs, birds, sheep, and rabbits. While they might find them cute, they didn’t treat them as equals. If criticized, they would respond boldly, saying, “What’s the problem with being cute?” as if treating them like pets was a privilege.4488db0cd3ee5456

Garim, who had been watching from behind, was shocked. She didn’t know what kind of beastkin Ryubeom was, but one of them was a highly regarded fox beastkin! Of course, there was a possibility that Kwon Namil would look down on foxes as well. Garim watched the three nervously.19647406da7820f6

Ryubeom checked f7a753a87c Yeohwi’s wrist 06531baa03 with a bd141783ac puzzled feeling.

Kwon Namil, Mr. Kwon’s seven-year-old son, showed interest in Nakyung as she roamed around. He was fascinated by seeing a beast person for the first time.

Animal abuse had e632ffc790 long been something e5599db688 for which there c74c2798d1 was no appropriate 9ab796bd85 punishment, and such e01ad3ce80 loopholes allowed harmful 04b1077ef5 practices to exist 916699efc1 in peculiar ways ac4cfeca42 even in societies efc45e4a6e where beast people 23878350b7 lived.30df4e0b54f805da

With the unavoidable negligence 3bc29c824a of the servants, Kwon 99b6e65582 Namil eventually used toy 64547f377b bows and BB guns. When Nakyung 6a0f041509 flew in 15336a98c6 her bird cef5a2dd2d form, Kwon 0a022815dd Namil would 8181896319 pretend to 372be1be99 be a 183a87955c hunter and 6f925e5c6c shoot at f31f7fa242 her.

Holding Nakyung’s jewelry 96a43618b4 box, Kwon Namil a40cfcd139 held out a 74c9cfe3e5 ring set with 8c9d1724e4 opal. Nakyung didn’t f7289769e4 know what 9af5fbfde2 the gem d29c2dfe57 was, but 19f9e5adac she was a1acaca928 captivated by e3052f63fd the opal’s 0874d0084a colorful light 0327fed199 under the 5b04d31ed2 sun.

Early in the 73d8244c19 morning, the mayor 4ca7e4032c had come to 69b8978987 the mansion to 23910538e5 speak with his 8fc3714724 parents, and all 1b16820f12 the servants were f817df2886 focused on the 4d204cc8e1 guests, leaving him 22aa895b61 very bored. Besides, he had 85fc1657bb successfully lured Nakyung fd62825b6a by finding the ec160eb993 ring his mother ae1df97a64 had lost the 8b890c4ccb day before. After giving it 243dbe394f to Nakyung, he c61fb776d9 planned to tell d5be810281 his mother, “The e638a54219 crow stole it d6fd9237fe because it likes 0fae43bb77 shiny things.” He 94f7d65146 thought it would b3a8e51d56 be amusing to e3dffddf44 see the mother 148b62affa and daughter’s reaction.b25e0e6fa4a18f21

Nakyung, fleeing desperately, cc76c8fc2b ran into the c851b194c8 villa.

Rolling far away, 2477b3c5db Kwon Namil stood b83f7b2e4d up nervously and 52ac45df13 saw the villa 06eecbe6db catching fire. The wire he had 0f9b2065c1 tripped over was a 88548f2188 gas canister hose, and e739741928 the gas canister he 8d49859a54 collided with had fallen b0cbd6cf43 and exploded, taking down 4bc8f262d4 the neighboring ones.4337df3775a91cd7

Since the day when the mayor visited the mansion a few days ago, and the villa explosion accident occurred in the afternoon, Nakyung had not been seen. Recently, the grandmother in the kitchen had subtly mentioned that “the child often stays in bird form…” so it was assumed that the child’s curiosity had taken her far away. It was thought she flew around here and there because she was bored without anyone to play with, losing her way in the process.32b086928089964d

However, days passed, and c6cdf55f63 the child did not 8153502ee6 return, and at some 9cde29d792 point, strange phenomena began dcf428f3cb to occur in the 0a596f2c20 mansion. The drawers aa243e7a24 rattled and fae5d6433a wouldn’t open, 857c9a4e30 and the b94f619143 doors creaked 2533f5679a open and 2fc53eb74a closed repeatedly. Moreover, these 2f4b5c570c phenomena spread fdc39e6eb9 to other 0bcfb58fe1 nearby mansions. At that time, the 66630d3c67 mother was too frantic 6e0b12e380 looking for Nakyung to 1702b351f2 pay attention to the c397403beb strange occurrences.297f3c0eaa733c90
