Chapter 78 – 077 the Village – Etbruk
Was this what Abet gave me!
Hwanin planned to go around the village starting tomorrow and talk with the spirits in order to improve his communication skills.
I did, but I didn’t expect a conversation with the soul to take place in this way…….
At that time, his forehead tingled again, and Hwanin came up with another idea.
‘Is it a buff with an expiration date? It’s not good if it’s like that.’
“Soul Master…… Are you here?”
For now, I answered the spirit of the old man, thinking that the hypothesis about him would be confirmed with time.
“You’re right. Can you hear me?”
「Yes. It sounds very clear. It is truly a blessing from the Beast God to see the Spirit Master before leaving this land…….”
‘You can hear clearly. So, maybe the souls didn’t respond well before because I couldn’t hear my voice.’
She spoke to the spirit as Isilite, who was stoning beside her, widened her eyes and blocked her approach with her palm.
“To the extent that you speak directly to me. There must be a lingering lingering feeling that I really want to achieve.”
“That’s right. I had something I really wanted to convey to my wife and children, so I stayed on this earth, postponing even attaining Buddhahood……. I did, but I never thought that the Spirit Master would visit…….”
“All right. Then we’ll go straight to your house. I will tell the story for you.”
“Thank you thank you…….”
Turning his gaze away from the old man with a dog, who was slowly bending over, Hwanin pointed to Isilite at her village chief’s house and said,
“Go and bring Chief Mera.”
=Yes!=
It was something he wanted to do anyway, but he was a Hwanin who had no intention of giving up the side result.
However, since he cannot wake up the villagers at this late night, he calls only the chief who exerts the greatest influence on the village. If you show it only to the village chief, the reputation of the village will rise on its own.
After a while, Hwanin arrived at a log cabin near the wooden fence on the outskirts of the village with his soul and knocked on the door to wake the people in the house.
An elderly man and a middle-aged couple did not know who the man who came late at night was, but were surprised by Hwanin’s self-introduction.
During the day, I heard the news that a group of susa peddlers and a spirit priest had arrived, but the man in front of me was a spirit priest.
= Huh, Huh. Spirit Master, did something, whoa, happen this late at night?=
Village chief Mera, who arrived with Isilite just in time, asked pantingly in her pajamas that showed off her mature, mature figure, even though the landlords looked at what was going on at this late night.
“…….”
Without answering, Hwanin grabbed the shoulder of the human soul and let go. Seeing with eyes will have a bigger impact than words.
=Huh?!=
=Oh, my God.=
Sure enough, as soon as he pushed the gun, not only the family of the old man-dog tribe, but also the village chief Mera glared at her in amazement.
It’s faint in a place where there is nothing, but isn’t the family who had a funeral a few years ago, an adult in the village revealing themselves?
=Father?!=
= Honey…… !=
— ……. …….
= Hey, Mr. Spirit. What is my father talking about?=
The father is talking about something, but allhehears is whee-shh-like wind and his voice is not heard, so the son asks with a desperate expression.
‘Isn’t this level of training just showing the figure and not even conveying the voice?’
Certainly, the amount of energy delivered to Abet was close to 67% of the total. And now, about 10% of the training given to the old man-dog tribe.
If you deliver a little more Hungi, the story will work, but if you use more than that, the amount of Hungi will drop to less than 30%, and your body will get chills and your physical condition will deteriorate.
The amount of Hungi consumed during the day was so great that this was enough to deliver all the amount recovered so far.
Instead, Hwanin delivered the words as they were.
“Caterus, don’t trust Eirue. Trust her wife and thy mother……. You say.”
= What is that…….=
“It is said that he has remained as a spirit to tell this story. And…… I was relieved to see that he was in good health. He says I’m leaving now.”
Then, noticing that the father’s soul was gradually dimming and turning into light powder, the couple and his wife began to say goodbye to the human spirit with tears in their eyes.
After a while, the spirits of the In-dog tribe disappeared as several small light bubbles with a satisfied expression under the family’s send-off.
Hwanin lowered his hand without thinking, and his eyes narrowed as he saw the small light droplets floating in the air stick to his hand and disappear as if being absorbed.
After being thanked by the spirit family, Hwanin left the house with the village chief and thought about what had just happened.
‘Light powder and light drops were phenomena that occurred whenever the soul attained Buddhahood.’
And Abet turned into light powder and disappeared without a drop of light.
He can only see that it has something to do with something being conveyed to him. If so, does this mean that they grow by accepting the power of the soul in this way?
Is the blue one a strong spirit?
I summoned the light green and light gray spirits floating around, but the number of soul orbs did not increase from 24.
‘I’ll have to make all the souls in the village to become Buddhas and check the results.’
= Well…… Spirit Master?=
Hearing the voice of Chief Mera calling for the Hwanin, Isilite tightened her brows.
‘What is that, that thin voice that’s coquettish!’
Come to think of it, the way I dress is so ridiculous. Because it was flimsy linen nightgown, not only did her inner body show through, but the white pubic hair between her nipples and crotch was also clearly visible!
Of course, this was Isilite’s mistake.
It’s a linen fabric, so it’s very slightly transparent, but it’s just an extremely blurry silhouette, and it’s a normal nightgown with no nipples or pubic hair visible.
However, perhaps because of the passage of time, the stiff feeling unique to linen has disappeared, and whenever the wind blows lightly or moves, the fabric wraps around the body, revealing the curves of the woman.
“Yes.”
=I can’t understand what just happened with my hard head. If you don’t mind being rude, could you teach me a little bit at my house? Coincidentally, there are good wines and good quality cheeses for spirit priests to drink.=
Isilite, irritated by the village chief’s manipulative quality that was clearly visible to her, raised her eyes from behind her phantom.
Hwanin felt it too, but he didn’t care and looked at the village chief for a while.
It is said that she is the chief of such a small village, but just looking at her appearance, she is a short-haired beauty with a short hair that exudes the feeling of an actress in her mid-30s to early 40s on Earth.
He has a lot of calluses on his hands and has times unique to his job of touching soil, but he is a person who makes a living by working in the fields in the countryside. It’s strange that there are no traces like that, and I’m not so mysophobic enough to be offended by such a thing…….
“All right.”
Hwanin accepted.
‘Master?!’
Uh huh I thought you would say no to her master? My body also rejected it, so why?
“Isilite. You can stop following me today. Now go back to the inn.”
= Yes, yes…….=
To make matters worse for her, in returning herself, Isilite noticed with her womanly intuition. That the owner read the foxy chief’s intentions and even accepted them!
‘What? What? Wasn’t the master a homo? Then why would I refuse and accept an old woman like that?’
It was Isilite who looked at the backs of Hwanin and the village chief as they headed towards the biggest house in the village, embracing her confused mind.
* * * *
When the day broke, the little village was abuzz with the events of the previous night.
=Katus said he was really his father.=
= Huh, if he died, he would have attained Buddhahood in no time. He said that he had no regrets left until this point? =
= I don’t know that. Caiters is keeping his mouth shut. =
=Anyway, I don’t think the spirit master is from our Luke and family…… Can you guide our souls too?=
= According to the innkeeper’s daughter, she looked like Fleur. Is it possible because it’s Fleur?
=Oh, if it’s Fleur, sure…….=
Even Hwanin knew that the people of the village gathered and used it as the subject of a story.
Because Hwanin, who had been harassing Mera all night and making green onion kimchi, saw the village women’s eyes as soon as she left the village chief’s house.
Returning to the inn, Susa, who was eating with the party, stood up from her seat in surprise.
= Oh. Come, soul lord. Did you eat breakfast?=
“Not yet.”
= Hey, come here. Mr. Fusha? One more breakfast, please. A lot. =
= Yes? Four. Please wait!=
Susa, who gave Hwanin a seat, put on an apologetic expression, saying she didn’t know.
=I heard you went to the village chief’s house, so I thought you’d have breakfast there. If he had known he would come, he would have waited for the spirit priest.
“There was a situation. It seems that will happen from lunch, so don’t wait for me and eat first.”
= I will. By the way…… Did you have work at night?=
“Yes. I went out for a while to get some fresh air, but the spirit came to me first. I couldn’t turn away from the appearance of the wind, so I led him to Buddhahood first.”
Hwanin, who answered Susa’s curious question, saw that there was no emergency food on the first floor of the inn and called out by blowing a whistle.
Quet~ ….
A faint cry of emergency food could be heard from the second floor.
Soon after, the emergency rations appear on the stairs, whimpering like a puppy upon hearing a dog whistle, and jump into Hwanin’s arms.
Susa, who was looking at it curiously, gave a small exclamation and nodded to Hwanin.
=Yes, a visit from a spirit priest is a big deal in any village. People have been excited about the story of the spiritual master since yesterday.=
Instead of answering with a small smile, Hwanin started eating his own breakfast.
She split the steaming bread in half to feed the emergency rations, while eating salad and scrambled eggs herself, and ordered six more meat dishes from the inn waitress, if available.
=6 servings…… ?=
After working hard for over 7 hours, I’m pretty hungry. If you include emergency food to eat, it’s a little short for 7 people.
After a while, food cooked with unknown meat, including meat, steak, grilled chicken, and so on came out.
“My escort will come down later. Could she tell her that she can eat as much as she wants to eat?”
= Yes, yes. I will. =
Then, as they leave the inn, they start to sing Quet, Kuu~ as the emergency food that makes them feel good because they are full is following them.
Hwanin now knew how unusual emergency rations were.
It travels from Yulkam to Etbruk, and there are more than 20 of them in von Kuo alone. He ranged in color from straw to gray, but I’ve never seen one as unusual as emergency rations.
When he’s hungry, he gets angry, when he’s full, he sings that he feels good, and when he’s bored, he insists on playing, and then he does everything he tells him to do.
It should be said that she is a larva of Kue, and even Susa and Isilite, who have seen many young Kue, say that they have never seen a Kue that is as friendly and understandable as her emergency food…….
‘Is it a characteristic of green Kue or a characteristic of emergency food?’
As if to stroke her hair, Hwanin placed her head in Hwanin’s hand for emergency food, and when she joked with her beak, she bit her beak tightly and pulled her finger as if to say, “Stop talking, stroke her hair!”
= Oh! Master, hold on! I’ll leave right away!=
Hwanin, who was walking while playing with emergency food, stopped her steps and looked back at Isilite’s sharp cry that came from behind her.
A shadow moves frantically near the window.
She wondered if she had been awakened by the song of her emergency rations, but as if to prove that fact, Isilite’s brown hair was floating as she slammed open the door of her inn and stormed out.
=Sorry! I overslept!=
“You’d better get her hair done.”
Isilite, who shrugged her shoulders when she said it quietly as she looked at her brown hair that stretched here and there, realized belatedly that her hair was a mess and took a handkerchief from her pocket and tied it roughly together.
The look of her tied like that was like a natural wavy ponytail, as if she had touched it at her high-end hair shop, so I muttered involuntarily as it blended with Isilite’s atmosphere and her brown hair.
“It suits you well….”
=…… Yes?=
For a moment, she asked if she hadn’t heard, but Hwanin didn’t answer and turned her body around and started walking away.
Isilite ran after him and, somehow feeling a little fuzzy, touched the ends of her hair. She didn’t even know that there was a smile on her lips that she didn’t even know existed.
The village of Etbruk was a small village with few peculiarities.
The peculiarity is that the village raises Kue.
Due to the nature of Que, which does not breed well, the number was small, but once born, it was a village where the number of couples was always between two and three pairs because they grew up without any problems.
This time, the two pairs of Que each laid two or three eggs, so Susa bargained for one egg and spent two days buying other village specialties and items that could be sold.
In the meantime, Hwan-in wandered around the village and made all the spirits that stood out in her reach Buddhahood.
Seongbul used a method of conveying about 10% of the training to the soul each time so that people could see it, while relieving the soul’s lingering attachments through interpretation, and this method received a great response from the people.
‘As expected, the visual effect is the most important.’
If the visual confirmation method was not borrowed, Aura would have had to give her bereaved family the belief that she was a soul first due to the nature of her invisible soul, so the stage of attaining Buddhahood would have increased a lot.
If it’s Hwanin’s personality, there’s a possibility that he would have thrown it all away because of the annoyance. For that reason, the method she had learned when purifying Abet and attaining Buddhahood was very useful.
Hwanin, who resolved the lingering feelings of the soul one by one, realized that there were surprisingly few types of lingering lingering feelings.
They were the ones who lost their families and lovers in death at an early age, or those who were left with regrets about what they couldn’t say before.
Maybe that’s why, when they saw their families and lovers, they shed tears and said goodbye, and their raging emotions were replaced with respect for Hwanin.
As a result, the villagers of Etbruk showed a strong following several times that of the villagers of Yulkam.
That’s because he made the twelve souls into Buddhahood and received a return gift of close to 20 silver coins from his family.
‘If we can hear the voices of those who died without leaving a will and receive ‘sincere’…….’
The higher the social status and wealth, the greater the ‘sincere’.
That wasn’t the only achievement at Etbrook.
The wives and wives of the village, who felt their abilities as Hwanin’s soul masters, embraced him, so during the three days he stayed in the village, there were only seven women in his arms.
Thanks to this, I absorbed the warmth of seven people, increasing the number of soul orbs by 2 to 26, and I learned that being able to talk to the soul is not a short-term effect, but a permanent one, and the shining orbs that scatter when the soul reaches Buddhahood I also found out that it can be absorbed.
‘I’m assuming that it will increase my communication skills, but…… I’m not sure.’
The benefits of absorbing the glowing orb will be known after more souls are attained and the light orb is absorbed.
