Chapter 60 – 059 the Village – Yulkam

Houran’s soul, which returned to a clear gray color like the other souls, bowed deeply to Hwanin and expressed her gratitude.

‘If I release my resentment, will I be freed from the mixed state?’

Looking at this, I can’t believe that the soul is incapable of thinking.

And if you can think, it’s only natural that you can talk.

‘The reason I can’t have a conversation must be my lack of ability.’

Houran’s spirit gazed at her family with affection and compassion, then slowly dissipated, spreading her light cluster like a mist.

After a while, Hwan-in turned his gaze and looked at Ho-ran’s family who were praying.

“You are gone.”

=Thank you, Spirit Master. Thank you for letting go of the grievance of the deceased…… Thank you…….=

=Thank you, Mr. Soul!=
=Thank you!=

“It was something I had to do. Don’t worry.”

Hwanin, who was modest enough for Yurisa and the children to express their gratitude while hiding their tears, sighed inwardly at the gaze of the villagers watching him from afar.

Efforts to resolve one confusion were by no means insignificant.

In the case of this case, it was easy to solve because it happened in a small town, but in the case of a rather large town or city, there is a high possibility that all sorts of complex human relationships will become entangled and become annoying and annoying just thinking about it.

It’s not worth it to pour this much time and effort into something completely irrelevant.

= I want to give an example to Mr. Spirit. Please accept this.=

“I will not decline.”

Although Yurisa returned it with currency and gemstones that could be used comfortably, it was not very satisfactory considering that it took two weeks to resolve.

Rather, it was not enough to see it as a reward for mental labor.

‘Shall we hide the matter of the soul? Or did she ignore Hon-jae or find a way to force Hon-jae to become a Buddha? ….’

If Hwanin had to pick the biggest income from Yulkam for two weeks, it would be the increase in the number of soul beads.

The number of soul beads held increased by 8 from 16 to 24.

The sudden increase in the number of possessions had something to do with the warmth of the women’s belly.

Warmth not only replenishes consumed heat, but also has a relationship with the number of soul beads you have.

I found out about it two days after arriving in the village. While Lukil’s punishment was being executed, she held Sister Huini and Ennel together, and noticed that her number of soul orbs had increased.

‘Since I started hugging them, I heard that the rate of increase in soul orbs is strangely fast. Is there a secret like this?’

If you use psychic powers, psychic powers grow.

Even if he absorbs the warmth of a woman’s womb, his superpowers grow.

Even so, it was a time when women in the village came every night wanting to be hugged by Hwanin.

From the next day, Hwanin spent time with two or three people every night, excluding those who could cause problems, and as a result of absorbing the warmth of over 30 women for 12 days, he was able to increase the number of soul beads he possessed to 24.

Here, Hwanin realized that his psychic powers had grown a step further.

The abilities gained along with growth were ambiguous.

The ability to issue more diverse commands to the spirits.

To be precise, a slight but direct communication with the spirit was possible.

The souls still cannot understand what the souls say, but at least the souls can understand what Hwanin says.

Anyway, from a big perspective, being able to easily embrace women can also be seen as an income earned through spiritual activities.

However, Hwanin concluded that this had nothing to do with the attainment of mixed Buddhahood and purification activities.

Anyway, when a competent outsider visits the village, the village women approach him for a night out.

Even if she wasn’t a soul sage herself, she was recognized for her combat prowess, which means she would have been approached by women.

In fact, even before his ability as a spirit master was known, on the night of the welcome greeting, several women came to visit, so it was not wrong.

In order to get used to her newly acquired abilities, Hwanin wandered around town communicating with the spirits.

Having a complicated conversation with language means that when one side spoke, the other side conveyed the meaning with gestures and footsteps, but even with that much, most of the souls’ wishes could be fulfilled.

The soul achieved what it wanted and attained Buddhahood, and the villagers found peace of mind.

Hwanin gained greater respect from the villagers and gained the knowledge that a person’s soul can only be marbled with the soul’s consent.

It was information that had no merit, and it was a reward.

Because it was a human soul orb, there was no such thing as greatly increasing the power of the skill or increasing the effect, and gaining more respect from the villagers was useless.

“Hmm…….”

While lying on her bed, Hwanin looked at the 24 soul beads on her left arm, then turned his gaze to the blue sky outside her window.

‘Now it’s time to leave the village.’

For two weeks, I really eagerly hugged the girls and absorbed their warmth.

The events of the day flow in Hwanin’s mind.

The women who came every day were all beautiful.

Hugging Ryuhi, Epnis, Huini, and Ennel in the forest labyrinth, Hwanin guessed that all the women in this world might be beautiful, but his guess was true.

The elderly woman was said to have aged gracefully, and the middle-aged woman was overflowing with charm like the wives of conglomerates.

Young women were beautiful enough to be idols or actors, and children were as cute as child actors.

In addition to the ears identical to those of humans, there were two more ears of a beast on top of his head, and a tail corresponding to the beast, but it was not a big problem for Hwanin, who had a wide range of tastes.

But that’s only women, all men were skin walkers.

A skin walker with the head of an animal but the body of a human, with skin instead of skin.

Hwanin was very surprised when he first arrived at Yulkam. Men and women look completely different as species like that, but can they see descendants?

“…….”

Also, men, like women, had warmth in their heart and belly, but Hwanin didn’t even look at them.

It was because Hwanin was the one who would give up his ability neatly if he needed a man to develop his ability.

“I will die because of that.”

Hwanin muttered calmly and got up from the bed at the sound of wings flapping outside the window.

Quet!

“Have you come?”

Kuek. Quet.

The emergency food, whose voice seems to be clear as if the voice change is over, jumps onto the bed and enters Hwanin’s arms to fawn.

Hwanin, who was stroking the vivid green feathers of the emergency rations, held up the emergency rations with both hands.

‘Looks like it’s getting heavy again.’

This is close to 10kg. It’s the size of a goose and weighs three times that.

Hwanin, who played with emergency food for a while, thinking that he would grow up again soon, got up from his seat and grabbed a stone ax and left the room.

Anyway, thanks to embracing women hard for two weeks, now the only women who have warmth in the village are women who have ownership.

Since she was a Hwanin who had no intention of causing trouble because of a woman, she had no reason to stay in Yulkam any longer.

When I went down to the first floor, I saw the daughters of the village head who were trimming a mountain of wild vegetables and vegetables in the living room, and I lowered my head lightly and left the house.

=Ah, benefactor!=

Just in time, the person I was going to see was standing in front of the door.

Huini, a member of the Inlang tribe, smiled like a puppy and replied, bringing him into his arms. She stroked the wolf girl’s head and asked.

“What is it?”

=My father asked me to bring my benefactor to finish the window!=

“Good. I was just about to find him, too.”

After holding her arms, Ini and I are walking along the stone wall road, so the peaceful village scenery is pleasantly approaching.

The two weeks I spent in the village were very comfortable and pleasant.

After the mixed incident, the village chief treated Hwanin even more hospitably, and the village chief’s wife and children did not hesitate to take care of Hwanin.

However, I have no intention of staying here.

I want to look more into this strange world and find something to fight for. I want to develop my superpowers more, and I want to see the other four races that exist besides Luke.

“…….”

And I have to find the owner of the gold coin that brought me into this world.

KANG-KANG! KANG-KANG!

When I entered the village’s only smithy, filled with the regular sound of tapping iron and the sweltering heat of the blast furnace, a solemn man with gray wolf hair approached me.

=Are you here, Mr. Soul.=

“Yes. I heard from Huini that the spear is complete.”

=Come this way.=

Huini’s father, Belbido, guided Hwanin to a room prepared inside the forge.

A studio of about 10 pyeong, which is no different from the scenery I saw when I visited 10 days ago. In the middle of the table lay a black spear that glowed with ink right down to the blade.

Hwanin lifted up his window to check it out and gave a small admiration.

It is a great spear that cannot even be compared to when he used to roughly tie the blade together or when Huini attached the blade.

Looking at the elongated, water-drop-shaped, ink-colored blade that is perfectly attached to the black window sill, my heart flutters slightly.

Feeling more grateful as a benefactor who saved his child’s life than as Hwanin as a spiritual master, Belvido wanted to repay Hwanin in some way.

However, even though he was a blacksmith, he was a hwanin who didn’t want to ask for anything from people who made agricultural tools in a small village.

If Huini hadn’t shown her razor boar’s fangs and said that her father would make a nice spear out of it, she would have declined as usual, but I entrusted her with a used spear, thinking it was worth the money…….

“Excellent. I really like it.”

The weight of the spear itself, the center of gravity, and the shape, none of it is inferior.

The bumpy window frame has been finely trimmed, but the soft, unique touch, as if holding high-quality velvet, has not disappeared.

After swinging the spear and stabbing it like lightning, unlike the spear I used before, it took almost no effort to aim.

‘This is the real center of gravity.’

Thanks to this, I learned that the spear I used before was simply trash, not the one whose center of gravity was in the front.

=Would you like to cut the iron once? There is a steel scarecrow set up in the backyard to check cutting power.=

“Please.”

Hwanin, who came out to the backyard with Belvido, stood in front of a scarecrow with steel bars embedded in it. Holding the spear with both hands, Hwanin inhaled a little, then swung the spear as hard as he could.

Spark-

The moment the black light flashes once, the scarecrow splits in half and collapses.

=Wow~.=
=Huh.=

Her father and daughter could only admire. Whoosh- All I could hear was the sound of cutting the wind, but even the steel bars inside the straw scarecrow were cut.

Likewise, Hwanin was also surprised.

She struck the steel, but only a feeble cut was delivered to her hand. With this kind of cutting power, even Bardul with its excellent regenerative power could easily be sliced.

“Great. She would have regretted it greatly if I hadn’t asked her to remodel the window.”

= No. The skill of the spirit master who handles weapons is excellent. While honing their skills at the smithy in a nearby village, I saw warriors boasting about being spearmen, but I’ve never seen anyone wielding a spear as neatly as the spirit master.=

= My father is also true. Hundreds of monsters and beasts that benefactor killed in the forest labyrinth! Skills are of course great!=

At her daughter’s boast, Belle Vido laughed, feeling a complex emotion.

I hope you don’t get hurt while admiring someone you don’t dare surpass…….

Hwanin, who was appreciating the elongated drop-shaped spear blade, opened his mouth.

“Anyway, it’s amazing. The molars of the Blade Wild Boar Holy Beast were ivory, but they turned to ink.”

= The ivory color was maintained until the processing was finished. However, the moment it was combined with the window frame, the color spread as if permeating, and it turned out like this.

“Maybe it’s because it’s the teeth of a holy beast.”

= To be honest, I don’t know. However, I think it is an effect unique to black trees. I never dreamed that there could be a tree that is harder, more flexible and stronger than steel.=

“Do you think it is because this tree is a labyrinth specialty?”

=I don’t know much, but I’ve never heard of a tree like this found outside.=

“Okay……. Thank you anyway. I will write well.”

= Thank you for liking me. Then, we will tell you what to pay attention to when using it. Priority…….=

The blade boar’s fangs boasted strength comparable to that of the black tree. Even in the onslaught of that greatsword monster, the last molar had withstood it to the end.

That doesn’t mean it isn’t broken.

It is not bone, but it is similar to bone, so the more you grind it, the shorter the blade and the shorter the lifespan, and it is emphasized that if the core is cracked, its function as a weapon can no longer be desired.

=The properties are superior to steel, but the recyclability is not comparable to steel. Be sure to check the condition of the blade after each battle and discard it early if it is cracked. It was possible that the wild boar Seongsu-nim fought the greatsword monster because it was a whole molar that was not processed.=

It was said that it was difficult to write for a long time since it was processed so thinly.

“I will keep that in mind.”

=Ah, and Dorito seemed to have completed something for the spirit priest. If you have time, please visit us.=

“Yes.”
