Labyrinth Story 95

Chapter 95 – 092 Small Town Wayford

Helmar = Bere.

The 17th-generation descendant of the small city of Wayford and the brother of Aldgin-Bere, the current lord of Wayford Castle.

He overnight…… He felt both awe and awe at the spirit master who made 27 souls reach Buddhahood in a short period of time.

‘At that time, the spirit priest who visited the family took a whole week to make one of the family’s souls become Buddhas. But how can he achieve Buddhahood so easily?’

In particular, I was thrilled at the scene in which the alumni who did not even build a family tomb in the mansion on the street of the old family, who were greedy for the last time, reached Buddhahood only with words.

So Helmar set out.

He believed that if it was this person, he would surely solve his question.

“…….”

Seeing Helmar like that, Hwanin made an expression of disapproval.

Hearing Helmar’s identity on the first day and hearing Helmar’s questions, Hwanin intuitively sensed that he had been sacrificed as a dirty political trick.

The problem arises right there.

It means that in order to make Helmar a Buddha, you must jump directly into the political arena.

In the eyes of Hwanin, Helmar = Bere was too kind for a noble family. He was kind, and he was a good talker.

According to what I learned while collecting the basic common sense of this world, the majority of the barons were cases by case, but most of them were peoples who had reached the extreme of the consciousness of the chosen people.

Despite being such a tribe, Helmar had a fairly good relationship with the spirits of the Second Cemetery here.

Everyone must have had a sense of kinship due to the same illness as a wandering soul, but that was probably possible because Helmar had a good basic disposition and excellent speech skills.

Helmar is the younger brother of Aldzin=Vere.

In this world, discrimination against the enemy existed. It is common for the eldest son of the royal family, or the eldest son, to inherit everything in the family.

But Helmar died.

I didn’t know he was alive, Hel Mar said, but he knew after he died. That he died from poisoning slowly over a long period of time.

So Helmar said he wanted to ask his parents. He said why did he have to die.

‘Your parents didn’t kill you, your brother killed you. Maybe there was parental help as well. It could be that the Gojos who were overly loyal to Aldjin poisoned him.’

It was because the affinity of Helmar-Vere, who was not even the enemy, seemed to be enough to buy someone’s concerns.

Anyway, there are many possibilities, but one fact.

If he takes Helmar’s soul and enters the castle, he realizes that he is in danger too.

Seeing that he was expelled here without being buried in a grave in Wayford Castle, he must have hated it quite a bit. So, Hwanin did not want to go out. It was not his taste to intervene in politics like this.

A normal person would have refused Hel Mar’s request here with some twist or fabrication.

“Helmar. I cannot solve your regrets.”

However, Hwanin directly refused.

“Uh, why? Spirit Master is a great skill. Me too…….”

“You are the second son of the noble family. It is a sacred bone among holy bones.”

“That, what about it?”

Hwanin answered, thinking that Helmar had a vague idea of ​​why he had to die.

“I am also of royal blood from a distant country.”

It is said that we have to go back thousands of years, but since Koreans are no different from the descendants of Dangun, it is not wrong to say that he is of royal blood.

“Because I know what the bottom of the royal family is like, I don’t want to intervene in the family affairs of the powerful family, who can be called the royal family of this country, if possible.”

“…….”

Hwanin’s refusal made Helmar’s mind confused.

It was surprising that the spirit master in front of him was of the king’s blood, but it was not important.

Not wanting to intervene in household chores…… Why? Not well understood. Can’t we just go and ask?

The three souls are scattered and only Helmar remains in the shrine.

Hwanin looked back at Elkata and said.

“I am tired and I want to rest. Could you guide me to a place where I can rest?”

El Kata, who listened attentively to the conversation of her phantom, was shocked by her successive shocks, but suddenly came to her senses at her phantom’s request.

= Yes, Mr. Spirit. Come this way…….=

Then, she left the Udukoni sun Hel Mar = Bere and guided Hwanin to the cabin.

El Kata, who brought his Hwanin and emergency food to his abode, looked at him with his complicated eyes.

Quet. Coo~

“Let’s get some rest.”

Kuek! Whoops!

“You’ve been comfortable…… Not. Are you here? Do you like this place?”

Kuheh. Hee hee.

A gentle figure sitting on his bed and playing with his green pet bird.
He looks like a rogue who extorted rewards from the bereaved souls.
An angelic figure who uses extorted money to help the bereaved of other souls.
A devil-like appearance that ignores the right and duty of spiritual life, Buddhahood.

And the identity of royalty in a distant country.

Also, like the beast he showed when he hugged himself…….

Ielkata, who unconsciously recalled the weight of the man who pressed her down last night, hurriedly brushed off his thoughts and prayed to the earth god.

=…….=

Elkata couldn’t figure out what the Hwanin’s true form was.

A blessing bestowed upon his own kind. The Eyes of Truth and the Ears of Truth let us know that Hwanin had been acting without a single lie.

Can the appearances of the good and the bad coexist?

Is it possible to have a dual appearance of disregarding the Buddhahood of the soul while practicing the Buddhahood of the soul?

Do you have to be able to accept that kind of ambivalence to become a soul master?

“Eelcata. Are you okay?”

=Yes, yes?=

“The stench of the slums must have been hard on you. Please sit down and get some rest.”

A sweet, caring voice that came close at any moment and put her hand on her own forehead.

Her ears perked up, El Kata unconsciously covered his ear and then lowered his hand.

= Ok… That’s fine. Don’t worry.=

Although he refused, Elkata couldn’t resist the power that tugged at her hand. Only his hand is held, but as if the whole body is held, there is no strength.

Guided by his hand, he sat on the edge of the bed, and a cute and pretty green bird placed its head on his lap and looked at him with bright eyes.

EL Kata smiled a little at that cute figure and stroked his head.

The touch of soft feathers and the warmth of living life relieve the mental pressure I felt today.

=…… Soul sir. Can I ask you one thing?=

“Of course.”

El Kata, who did not have the courage to look into Hwanin’s eyes, looked at the green bird with her eyes closed as if laughing and opened his mouth.

=Why didn’t you save Mr. Helmar’s soul from wandering? Other souls…… If you were a spirit master, I think you would have led me to Buddhahood.=

Was it that his expression was bad because he kept thinking about it? Hwanin put a small smile on his lips at the question that felt like he was being honest.

Seeing that, El Katha tilted his head, not understanding why he was laughing.

“There’s an idiom about picking beehives where I live.”

= Beehive…… Are you?=

“Of course bees whose nests are attacked will be angry. They don’t have the intellect to think deeply, so they will try to attack any creature they see.”

Elkata’s complexion darkens when she realizes what Hwanin is trying to say.

Quet?

“Emergency food. Come here.”

Hwanin, holding emergency rations, continued the story while crying at Elkata, who blinked and bowed his head.

“It’s easy to listen to Mr. Helmar’s lingering feelings. It’s enough to reveal the identity I’ve been hiding and visit the castle of the Aldjin Bere 4th grade Baron to recharge Helmar’s aura. Then Mr. Hel Mar will be able to solve his posthumous questions.”

=…….=

“Do you remember what I said yesterday?”

= Mr. Helmar’s attained Buddhahood is mixed with high-level political issues…….=

“Yes. Mr. Helmar was poisoned. In his lifetime, he must have been a kind, sociable, and friendly person. But he doesn’t seem to have a wise intellect. Aldgin Bere, who was wary of his affinity, or Mr. Helmar’s parents, maybe someone who was overly loyal to them…….”

= He must have murdered Mr. Helmar…….=

“…… What do you think will happen if you take him to the castle in that situation?”

Elkata couldn’t answer.

It wasn’t because I couldn’t guess. It was because the fearful imagination spread endlessly.

“At worst, he is stupid, and at best, he is a pure person. The more angry such a person becomes, the more frightening it becomes. If the seeds of resentment and hatred in his heart germinate after eating the fertilizer of anger, he will change into a mixture. I cannot purify such a mixture. Mr. Helmar, who has been in such a state, will want the death of his family and friends. Can you guess what will happen after that?”

At Hwanin’s calm story, EL Kata covered his face with both hands.

As he saw his small face fit into both of his hands, Hwanin said as if he were going to kill him.

“Disaster will befall Wayford. The misery caused by the confusion, the oppression due to the anger of Aldzin Bere, and even the indiscriminate retaliation for the attempt to control one’s shame from spreading.”

=…… Does that mean Mr. Helmar can’t be saved…… ?=

“I don’t think it is necessary to release the lingering feelings and resentments of all souls. Just like there is a saying that ignorance is medicine.”

=Then who will release the resentment of the murdered person?=

“They believe they are standing above people. If we have to punish them…… That must be the work of the gods.”

=…… !=

As if his soul had escaped, he approached Elcata with a blank expression and held her cheek. El Kata’s delicate eyes tremble with her sorrow.

= That’s…… It’s such a sad story……. The blessing of attaining Buddhahood and purification, which should be directed equally to all souls, has to be split because of a few people…….=

“…….”

= I feel the most pitiful of myself for not being able to do anything even after hearing such a story…….=

Her Hwanin hugged her without a word, and El Kata also hugged her Hwanin’s chest without a word, shedding her little tears.

Hwan-in, who warmly and lovingly cared for El Kata, who was drowning in her sorrow, looked down at her exhausted, sleeping face and thought.

‘I’m curious if this tendency is a trait of El Kata, or a common trait of her soul seekers.’

He was a Hwanin who regarded the attainment of Buddhahood and purification of the soul only as a matter of business. However, El Kata seemed to view her work as a noble mission, or a similar love of humanity.

If the other soul masters are similar to Elkata…….

‘Shouldn’t it be better to pretend to be nicer?’

Touching her white neck and collarbones on her elkata, her own kiss mark on her immaculate chest, her phantom pulled up her blanket, covered her naked body, and left her cabin.

‘It is impossible to pretend to be nicer than this. Physiologically and physically.’

She has no reason to, and has no desire to, pretend to be nicer than this. If she has to somehow…….

‘It’s better to stop working as a spirit master and pretend to be an adventurer. In this case, her psychic powers should be decorated with special talents and gifts given between races.’

The people of this world have a special tribal talent.

For example, El Cata, a Fleur, has eyes and ears that can see through the truth in the words and actions of her opponents.

It is an innate ability called a watcher of truth.

The Lukrang tribe can transform into temporary animals with an ability called animalization and show off their physical abilities many times stronger.

So when you introduce yourself as a minority from a very distant place, everyone will understand if you explain it as a racial talent.

Because their appearance is also different from those of the 4 races and 7 sub-races.

As Hwanin walked out of her second cemetery, she saw her spirits hiding behind her as her eyes met hers.

‘If I leave everyone except Helmar alone, I will lose my lingering attachments and reach Buddhahood. It’s clear that there were only 31 souls in this large cemetery with thousands buried. Helmar is the biggest problem…….’

After thinking about it for a moment, Hwanin decided not to care.

If only he disappears, there is nothing to stimulate Helmar. Then, someday, you might get tired of yourself and achieve Buddhahood.

If he stays in reality for a long time and becomes mixed like Yulkam’s or Isilite’s Abet, then another soul priest will purify him.

‘I’m going to start investigating the labyrinth and visit three other cemeteries in earnest from tomorrow.’

Thinking so, it was Hwanin who moved to the Olts Hotel with emergency food.

But he couldn’t visit.

= Did you hear? A spirit priest came to visit our city!=

=Really? When? Where are you?=

= I don’t know. He appeared in the slum last night!=

= Huh? I heard you showed up on the main street?=

= Both must have appeared! Anyway, since the spirit master is here, the street will be even clearer~.=

Somehow, the fact that the Spirit Sage had visited Wayford had spread widely.

While visiting Susa’s mansion, most of the people gathered were talking about the spirit of the white hooded robe.

‘I personally asked the bereaved family and they also received a definite answer that they would never reveal it. Elkata is not a great person to break a promise either. Susan is a natural thing. Did the rumor spread in the slum area?’

The shacks in the slums are as good as having no soundproofing.

He brought the bereaved family out right away, but the sound must have leaked out in the process of giving the bereaved family their faith.

Upon arriving at her mansion, Susa, who had been waiting for her, came out to express her concern.

= Hwanin. The city is noisy, are you okay?=

“Yes. I guess I won’t have to worry for a while.”

Few people have ever seen him visit the Second Cemetery. The only people who saw it were the janitors working at the cemetery.

= Then you’re lucky. Anyway, I got a report from Brillitt. You want to relocate them to the village.=

Hwanin nodded as he was served tea by Susa’s wife, Anne Flint, in the living room of his mansion.

“There is no reason for them to stay in Wayford any longer. It would be best to move to a village to restore both a broken body and a tired mind. How much would it cost to relocate and settle three families?”

As he took three gold coins out of his pocket and set them down, Susa widened his eyes and shook his head.

= Hwanin. Don’t you remember how much the reward you received from Yulkam and Etbruk were? One gold coin is enough money for a family of eight to play, eat, and live for the rest of their lives. I think this is enough.=

“…… Only six ten silver coins?”

=Yes. One ten silver coin is donated to the village, and the other one is used to build a nice house, providing food and furniture.

“Well.”

= Too much money is poison for migrants. After taking care of yourself for about a year, starting farming from the second year and earning income from the third year, the remaining two years of money are savings for emergencies. So two ten silver coins are enough.=

“Susa-san, the cost of relocation was not included in your calculations.”

Haha. Hwanin-nim does a good job, how can you get paid for it? Even if it is not, if you arrange a migrant in the village, you will receive a certain amount of reward from the village head, so you can pay the fee with that reward.=

“It seems that I owe Mr. Susa several times.”

=Just being able to help someone like Hwanin makes me and my family happy.=

The meaning of helping the soul is similar to giving priority to a one-way ticket to heaven, in the sense of the earth.

Even if it’s not an indulgence, it’s like believing that it’s a big plus point for good deeds. This is also the knowledge I learned while studying society at Wayford.

Hwanin smiled bitterly and called the children of Susa, a boy and a girl snooping through the open door.

As soon as I waved my hand to come here, Gilleu and Eira came running quickly and their eyes sparkled with lively faces unique to boys and girls.

‘If this makes me feel comfortable, I’ll do as much as I want.’

He placed both hands on Ara’s head and spread the message to his son Zileu and his daughter.

=Wow~?=
=Wow!=

Hwanin spoke in a calm tone to the children who were surprised to receive the lowest-level program and liked it.

“Jileu, Eara. Your father is a very good person. Follow your father’s example and grow up to be such a great adult who can see the world with open eyes and hearts.”

=Yes!=
=Yes~!=

The two boys and girls rushed to her mother and jumped up and down saying that they had been blessed by her spirit master.

Ann Flind hugs those children, greets them with a smile of gratitude, and drives her children out of the drawing room.

=Okay? It is a secret that must be kept that the spirit master visited our house…….=

= I won’t tell anyone…… !=

= Me too…… !=

Susa bowed her head with a face of deep gratitude to Hwanin, who had heard a small voice through the closed door.

= He gave blessings even to the children, how should I thank him…….=

“It is a blessing that has no lasting effect, only temporarily makes you healthy.”

= Even so, the fact that Hwanin-nim directly blessed it doesn’t change.=
<brhaha,

= Senior Instructor Haien Jod of Senior Military Officer of Highern is looking for Hwanin.=
