Chapter 345 – Chapter 345: Mischief 2
The village where the combatants had escaped en masse was really easy to subdue. In the midst of team leader and Han Ye-ji’s arcing fire, when Song Ye-na danced with her sword, everyone fell down.
And the head of the fallen man was naturally collected inside the lantern.
‘Is that right?’
The woman who ran away with a club, the old woman who brandished her cane behind her, and the girl who hid in a hut and gave me a sly look at me, a man, were equally decapitated. Even though the village became so noisy, there was no additional support, so all the crying natives were amicably housed in the lantern.
Looking at it, I felt strange because it reminded me of the Western civilization oppressing the 3rd world rather than suppressing criminals, but what can I do? This continent has developed because it is more convenient to make people tell the truth than to waste time with interrogations.
As they devastated the village and moved forward, a familiar place appeared. On the way to the sanctuary, which he witnessed over and over again while interrogating Shin Chang-min.
It looks relatively grand because it is among the shabby huts, probably because they saved wood.
Since the village is not that big, as soon as you walk the road to the sanctuary, a large hut immediately catches your eye. In the dream, at this point, two strong women should appear guarding the hut, but they are not there because of the uproar in the village.
While comparing Changmin Shin’s nightmare with reality, he walked slowly and approached the sanctuary, but there were no obstacles. I thought that even if the village was in an uproar and some people were missing, the people who guarded the sanctuary would still be there.
“Shall we go right in?”
“Yes, even though it’s a sanctuary, I don’t feel any special magic. It’s because I got caught up in a prank of a fairy…”
The party doesn’t feel any tension, as if they don’t think they’re a threat. Even a tribe of shamans who hide in remote forests and attack tourists are just savages with clubs in front of swordsmen who cut steel into chunks like tofu. Not only clubs, but also flying spells could be cut down with a single sword.
Song Ye-na opens the door and enters, not paying attention to whether there is a presence or magic behind the door.
After that, as we enter one after another, all we see is an ordinary cabin.
Yes, it was the inside of an ordinary, cramped cabin with nothing in it.
※
Inside, there should have been a shaman woman similar to Jikimi, the manager of the sanctuary. It was because Shin Chang-min had a tattoo on a man with a special dye that turned his vitality into semen.
In the first place, in his memory, the cabin was enchanted and had a wide interior space. Aside from the dye jars, there are several carpets inside, so you can hang out with a man. However, what I could see in front of me was so cramped that I would have to fold a single carpet.
An empty cabin with no carpets, no dye pots, no lighting is absolutely not a normal scene.
“… Is this the sanctuary?”
“No, in Shin Chang-min’s memory of him, there was a spell in the cabin.”
Confused, so are the others. It wasn’t that they didn’t read Changmin’s memories, but the scenery in front of them couldn’t be called a sanctuary.
Everyone scattered and looked around here and there, but there was nothing to see. It’s a really empty cabin with no furniture to speak of, so if you look around the walls, floor, and ceiling, the search is complete.
The leader of the search team diligently ran his fingertips in all directions, whether it was just in case or hoping for a feat, but of course there was no noticeable result. It’s an empty cabin where you can’t feel witchcraft, magic, or any kind of energy.
“Did you say that you were under a spell?”
“Yes. It was like that in Shin Chang-min’s memory. A thick carpet was laid in a space several times larger than this.”
“Oh, I should have brought that man’s head…”
The shaman approached leaving the team leader behind and spoke to me. I’m the only one who has even the slightest information about this town. The words she murmurs in small words are a bit heinous, but even for her, it can’t be helped because she feels stuffy inside her.
How could the information you have about sticking a human head into a lantern come out of nowhere? It must be a way to find the necessary information using some kind of magic. I found a way to enter the village by digging into the mischief of the fairies, but there is nothing there?
Normally, you would be able to give various reasons, such as because of the fairy, ran away, or lack of information. Why? Anyway, since the town and the sanctuary have been found, it can’t be helped that the target that should be there has fled.
If it wasn’t for the Constellation that was by my side.
She is a woman from Southern Continent Shaman who entered her academy and proved her abilities. Considering the status of the academy, it would be nice to think that she followed her elite career path at a young age. Aside from cutting off her head her, it does n’t change that she is an elite lady with a bright future.
Now that she has made a huge mistake by her Constellation of her, she has no choice but to be impatient.
This world does not intend to show mercy in things related to the Constellation. No matter what the results that have been shown so far, roll up and eat the events directly instructed by the Constellation? With that alone, she would give way to other shamans. To put it bluntly, they are zealots who want to stone people to death if they become involved with the Constellation. She couldn’t be kind enough to smile and say that she made a mistake.
“Um, that, this…, Ah! As the spell is broken?!”
“That’s right, the magic that should have been on the village fence is also gone and led us to the wrong space.”
“The space beyond space, the magic of wandering that continues to lead you to another place, the fairy’s malice, not the prank of the fairy.”
Perhaps they sensed that it was their own crisis, the team leader and the sorcerer put their heads together and muttered earnestly. If there is no achievement here, even if I do not say anything, the eyes of the southern continent and the academy will follow them as losers and failures like a tag.
Two people desperately trying to figure out if they don’t want their career path blocked at a young age. All sorts of incomprehensible shamanistic knowledge and examples pop up and are rejected after being refuted by the other party.
Even in the midst of this, I feel that several hypotheses that have not been refuted are gathered and gathered. I can’t understand the theory, but the feelings between the two of them gradually flow in a positive direction. It belongs to a person who has found a ray of hope in the devastation that is close to denying reality.
“It’s more like letting go than wandering, right?”
“Maybe it’s a mirror image. It might be a subspace within a subspace.”
After all, should I say that experts are different? Song Ye-na and Han Ye-ji stood quietly next to me so as not to interfere, while the two busily moved. Like the minute and hour hands on a clock, it starts spinning around inside the cabin at different speeds.
“What are you doing?”
“Let’s go out. Even if we’re inside anyway, it’ll only get in the way.”
“Yes, I understand, Constellation. Then, shall we look around the village again?”
“Yeah, it’s not just the kids hiding, there might be other things hiding.”
Since the two moved while touching the wall with their hands, we quickly stepped out of the cabin. The target is the townsfolk who only looked around. It’s because I didn’t use my hands first for those who were quiet in the hut.
If you are hiding when everyone else is attacking, you’re probably too old or too young to be a non-combatant, and you wouldn’t know anything at that level. On top of that, I thought that if there was a chieftain in the sanctuary, she alone would suffice.
With that thought, she turned around and opened the cabin door.
“What is this again?”
“Ah, ah—is that so?”
“Oh…”
And what happened after that happened at the same time.
From the green light of the lantern that shoots straight towards the door like a light tracking an escaped prisoner, to Han Ye-ji who hugs my shoulder and avoids her body as if rolling to the side, and Song Ye-na who pulls out a The sword and cuts through the door like a ghost. In her frantic gaze of her, she even confirmed the team leader who was casting a strange spell on me using her bone bracelet.
So, just that far.
“What, why are you doing that!”
Because there was nothing outside the cabin. When I open the cabin door, what I see is not the scenery of the village we walked through, but the scenery of an empty cabin. Nothing looks dangerous, so why… ,
Another view of the cabin?
Ye-ji Han shyly scratches the back of her head and lets me go in her arms her, as if she thought there was nothing dangerous. Holding Song Ye-na’s hand and standing up from her seat her, I can see the scenery outside the door even better. So, without a road leading out of the cabin, when you open the door, the cabin continues to appear.
“If you open that door, will there be another cabin?”
“… Maybe it will. It will continue to come out beyond and beyond.”
It looks like a cube made by copying and pasting a square cabin.
“Anyway, the bitch called the chief seems to have been cursed by the fairies.”
“So you’re saying he’s wandering infinitely in this space?”
“Yes. It’s not like a maze though, so I guess I’ll have to keep moving forward to catch it.”
And the green light of the lantern was pointed beyond, at the closed door of an identically copied cabin. … Damn, how far do I have to walk?
