Chapter 867 – 858 Side Story Magical Girl Jihyul
It has been 10 days since the search for the body of an unrelated person meeting the conditions began.
Ji Ji-yul was shocked while helping Hwan-in. It was because of the number of bodies of unrelated people who followed him and found them.
The number of people who have been dead for about a week is 67 over 10 days.
‘There are so many suicides in Korea…’
Even though it is not nationwide and limited to studio apartments in Seoul, there are so many people. In a month, there are 201 people, and in a year, there are 2,400 people.
Of course, there were not only suicides, but there were also people who died because they were sick and could not afford treatment, or were injured and could not move because there was no one to help them.
What broke her heart was the death of a man in his late 40s.
In the will, the family was torn apart due to several business failures, and without parents or friends, he lived alone and was suffering from the double hardships of life and illness, and ultimately chose to commit suicide.
The part that upset her was that she left 2 million won in her will next to her, saying that she would use it to clean and organize her room when she died.
The contradiction of thinking about her own death and caring for the person who would clean her room while her life was difficult enough to think about her death shook her emotions.
Her father is the managing director of a fairly famous conglomerate, and her mother is a wealthy woman who rarely watches the Internet or TV.
As the eldest daughter of such a family, she grew up receiving plenty of love, so she was quite shocked by what could be called the bottom of society.
If she had been a self-made great sage who lived through difficult times in Nionebres, she would not have been shocked by something like this.
But it was a shocking thing for a girl who grew up in Korea, receiving love and protection from her parents.
You could think of it as a kind of ego conflict.
Her two thoughts are blended into one, the unification phenomenon she experienced when returning to Earth from her Nione Breath and passing through her dimensional membrane, plus her mental issues that cause her to wallow in her self-loathing.
She said, “That’s it. Let’s go back.”
“Uh, yes.”
And what added to her confusion was the fact that Hwanin did not just wander around looking for dead people.
A woman who was almost dying from malnutrition was given immediate food, about 3 million won in money, and deep core strength to fill her with feelings of hope and motivation, giving her the strength to live.
A young man who was suffering from depression and was losing his breath due to taking a large amount of medication was given an enterprising and uplifting feeling that he could do anything after taking off the medication and boosting his mental strength.
He healed and saved a man who had hanged himself and gave him hope in life, and he also helped a woman who tried to commit suicide by slitting her wrists in the bathtub by giving her the mental strength to shake off the gutter reality that was holding her back and move forward. He cast a spell.
Even now, I treated a dying woman who had acute pneumonia and had no money for treatment, and left some money by her side.
After leaving the building after Hwanin, Yul looked at his back and put his hand in his coat pocket.
Hiding his complicated feelings was shown through his actions.
‘How is that guy so strong?’
I heard everything about the man’s past from Lee Seul.
His parents died in a car accident, and he said he became a man after a legal battle with his cousin, a relative who was seeking his parents’ insurance money and inheritance.
How can a person stand tall like an old tree after going through two of the top three emotional pains a person can experience?
How is it that he is not standing alone, but is supporting ten people?
‘My heart shakes like a reed just because of Nionebres…’
… Is this the difference between the dishes?
“Why are you doing that?”
Ji Ji-yul, who had been standing blankly without realizing that he was looking at him, suddenly came to his senses when he heard Hwan-in’s voice.
“Oh no, nothing. He’s done good deeds, but isn’t it a bit of a waste not to show his face? “You helped me get out when everyone was losing their senses.”
“Because I have no intention of attracting attention. In today’s world, if you get even a little bit of attention, your face or name spreads quickly through social media.”
“Oh, yes. Right, right?”
“…”
Hwanin gives me a strange look at the words I blurted out without thinking because I was embarrassed.
It couldn’t be possible, but Ji Ha-yul’s face turned red, and he covered his face with his hands because of the embarrassment of having his thoughts discovered.
Ji Ji-yul returned home, took off his clothes and sat on the living room sofa with a blank expression.
He pursues leisure with purpose and lives a fun life with his prospective wives, so what am I doing? …
“…”
Ji Ji-yul brought the latest smartphone his dad bought him and sent a text message to his friend.
[Hayul] Hey₁
[Hayul] Lee Seul, what are you doing₁
[Hayul] Kim Yi-seul₁
All of Ji Ji-yul’s friends, a middle school girl, left. The only friend that the great sage Ji Ji-yul acknowledges is Kim Yi-seul from Uncle’s House.
His other women? Is it less than a friend or more than an acquaintance?
However, since they are all good kids with bright personalities and no sense of jealousy or envy, Ji Ji-yul is opening his heart little by little without realizing it.
As time goes by, she will naturally become a friend.
“… Is he in the kitchen again?”
Even after 10 minutes, the read mark does not disappear.
‘Or maybe they were gathered in the living room and couldn’t hear.’
At the house over there, after work is over, we gather in the living room and have a leisurely conversation or watch dramas or movies together, as if we are not tired of seeing each other for 6 years.
The little brother is in a vegetative state and just can’t breathe when he comes home exhausted from working overtime, the father is also often late because of work, and the mother is busy knitting to make scarves for her and her younger brother. It’s a busy house that is on a different level from the quiet house here.
Ji Ji-yul let out a sigh and sent a message to the game addict at his house.
[Hayul] Neri. Please tell Iseul to look at his phone
This time, the 1 mark disappeared in less than a second, but there was still no reply. Instead, a few minutes later I received a message from Iseul.
[Iseul Kim] I was trimming the ingredients.
[Hayul] I knew that would happen
[Hayul] I have something I’m curious about, Mr.
[Hayul] Did you have any plans before you came back?
[Iseul Kim] Master never acts without a plan
[Hayul] … All along?
[Iseul Kim] Yes
[Hayul] 😳
Among the group, except for Norn, who was Kueh, Iseul stayed with him the longest. If Lee Seul, who watches the man’s every move, says so, it is the truth.
“No, it’s amazing, really. “You always move according to plan?”
[Iseul Kim] There is always a big plan. The middle stem and small stem change depending on the time, but they don’t change much.
… But. I can’t imagine that guy acting without thinking.
[Hayul] Do you have plans too?
[Iseul Kim] Yes. I want to become a culinary researcher.
[Hayul] It would suit you very well
[Hayul] You like cooking
[Hayul] I also like researching materials
[Hayul] If you open a high-end restaurant, business will be great
[Iseul Kim] Thank you. But I don’t want to cook for strangers.
You’re saying I’m not a stranger, right? Ji Ji-yul lifted his mouth slightly and tapped the keyboard of his smartphone.
[Hayul] Do other kids have goals too?
1 disappeared immediately, but the post did not appear. As I was waiting, thinking that I was probably going to be laying bricks, a long message came up a few minutes later.
[Iseul Kim] Yuri is studying for a craftsman’s license. Anne hasn’t figured out what she wants to do yet, and Ayoung wants to try being a YouTuber, but her master told her to reconsider. Li Kang is very interested in her sports side, but she is still thinking about it. Her Norn still likes to play, and her Hwanyeon seems to be very interested in the environment. I heard Neri mumbling that she didn’t want to work, and it seems like the owner knows that too.
[Hayul] You break your sentences into shorter sentences… Too long
[Hayul] Anyway, thank you for letting me know
[Hayul] Tomorrow is my play day. Can I go in the morning?
I asked because I wanted to talk to him in person tomorrow, but the response was delayed again because I was asking the guy this time.
[Iseul Kim] Say it’s okay if the owner comes. I’ll even make breakfast for you.
[Hayul] ㅇㅋㅇㅋ He died tomorrow morningㅋㅋㅋ
[Iseul Kim] Why do you die in the morning?
[Hayul] That means you will eat that much!
[Iseul Kim] That’s an internet term, right? Neri got slapped for using Internet terms in front of her master. YYou, too,be careful.
[Hayul] Kkkk How did I get hit?
[Kim Yi-seul] He was being very obnoxious…
Ji Ji-yul exchanged messages with Lee Seul for a while, giggling, and then ended the conversation and was once again dazed in the quiet atmosphere of the house.
“…”
Soon, Yul Ji suddenly opens the door to her brother’s room, takes off his clothes, and wakes up his brother, who is lying on the bed like a corpse.
Ji Ji-yoon’s younger brother, Ji-yoon Ji, who moaned like a zombie while being hit on the back, muttered like a dead person.
“Why are you like this… Let me sleep for a while…”
Ji Ji-yun, who was trying to chase his older sister Ji Ji-yul away with his arms fluttering helplessly, was caught by his older sister, and his arms were broken and he cried out! I screamed until I couldn’t breathe.
Ha-yoon Ji, who was fluttering around like a shrimp due to the mind-boggling pain, jumps up and shouts.
“Oh please! I got off work after three days! “I haven’t slept for less than 6 hours in three days, and I have to go out at dawn again tomorrow?!”
“Okay, why did you join the company? “I heard that he went to another affiliate, not the company where my father is.”
When asked by Ji Ji-yul, who, like any other sibling’s older sister, let her brother’s anger go by barking, Ji Ji-yoon patted his chest and lowered his head in pain.
What on earth did this damn witch do in another world? She trained herself in magic and fighting skills to become as strong as a monster.
Even if you try to break her, you’ll just get crushed like when you got hit in the ring.
“… Because I want to become a person of high social status like my father. “The reason I went to engineering instead of going to electronics where her father was working was because I thought it would be difficult to learn a job under her father.”
“Have you ever thought about anything other than work?”
“Why are you suddenly asking that? Is it because you can’t find what you want to do?”
“…”
Ji Ji-yoon scratched her head and sighed at the sight of her sister closing her mouth without answering.
She hasn’t changed much since 7 years ago. She is more like a younger sister than an older sister.
Just as she disappeared, she suddenly appeared and made the bombshell statement, ‘I was in a different world all this time,’ and the human showed undeniable evidence to suspect that her head had gone awry.
Ji Ji-yoon, thinking he knew what her older sister was thinking, massaged her hunched shoulders and said.
“The world is different now than she was when her sister went missing,” She said. “If she studies mediocrely, joins a company mediocrely, and lives mediocrely, she will have no sense of accomplishment, and it is a difficult time for her to live in.”
“… So?”
“If you suddenly come back and don’t know what to do, why not find out what you can do? Things like finding a man I like and building a happy family, or working hard like a career woman and establishing myself as a member of society.”
Honestly, I don’t think that my sister will be a good mother and good wife like her mother. It’s fitting that she holds a high position in the company and wants her employees to death.
“Or how about finding a field where you can utilize that magic?”
“It’s crazy? This power is absolutely secret. If you talked in front of others—”
“I won’t. Even if I try, my evaluation will only be lowered after hearing crazy otakus, so why are you calling me crazy?”
That’s true, but Hayul felt bad for some reason and hit his younger brother on the shoulder. Then he screams and makes a fuss that his shoulder is broken.
“You look like a crazy, violent magical girl! Stop using your fists!”
“Write!”
“… !”
After glaring at her younger sister, who reflexively raised her guard at her own threat, Jihyul went out and got her a glass of water.
It’s not just water. A special recovery potion of the Great Sage infused with the ingredient structure of a stamina and rejuvenation potion.
“Drink.”
“… The color is really unpleasant. What is it on?”
At first glance, it looks like a mixture of grape juice and strawberry juice mixed with a hangover relief drink.
Ji Ji-yoon, who was looking at the strange drink with bubbles rising with suspicious eyes, drank it down in one go, wondering if his sister might have poisoned him.
No matter how disgusting the taste is, it will be less than the punishment drink that tastes like a raw egg dipped in rag water that I drank during college MT. I thought so…
‘It’s delicious, right?’
It’s sweet, sour, and slightly carbonated, making it easy to drink and providing a refreshing sensation that quenches thirst.
And Ji Ha-yun felt the fatigue that felt like a thick chain wrapped around her body disappear.
“Wow… What? All my fatigue is gone! Is this it? Magic potion?”
“Stop talking about that damn magic. “How many times do I have to tell you that it’s not magic, but a trick?”
“When it comes to drinking techniques, it doesn’t stick to your taste buds. And the Magical Girl Jihyo-yul looks better than the Magical Girl…”
Slam!!
“… Ouch! Ugh!”
Jiha Yul, who left a retributive palm print in the middle of her back, out of reach, left the room, leaving her younger brother struggling like a grilled squid.
What I can do…
An ordinary wise mother and good wife… When I think about it, why does this man’s face come to mind?
CClap I hit myself in the face to get rid of random thoughts, but the delusion does not stop and continues uncontrollably.
Married life with my uncle. It was a rough and hot night. Her stomach looks swollen like a pregnant woman. And the cute and pretty children born between you and me.
‘Ahhh~! What is this!’
How is this any different from an extremely hateful idiot who fantasizes about getting married, having children, and growing old together after just one conversation?
Ji Ha-yul was seen rolling around on her sofa in pain, pulling out her hair, and her younger brother, who came out to get a drink of water and witnessed the sight, made an expression as he saw her struggling. Br〉
Said Ji Ji-yoon, who drank water from the water purifier with a look on her face.
“If that’s the case, why not try starting a business? Or, you could analyze the ingredients of the drink you gave me earlier, make it into a special drink, and sell it. “If we dilute it and sell it, it will sell a lot, right?”
“What are you talking about?”
Ji-yoon Ji’s father, who had just come home from work, and his mother, who came out of the room, heard the story and became curious, so Ji-yoon Ji briefly explained what had happened earlier.
Her father, Ji Cheon-hyuk, and her mother, Mo Yeon-hwa, were amazed by its effectiveness.
“There is such a drink? “Is this a drink from the magical world?”
“Daughter, if you have such a good magic drink, Dad, why don’t you give me some too? “My dad’s face is turning yellow these days because we’ve been drinking a lot.”
“It’s not a magic world!”
“Hmm. When I say the world of magic, doesn’t it sound a bit strange? “I think the magical world is perfect.”
… Really. It’s the same thing that people say when they think they’re not their son’s father.
With her lips pouting, Ji Ha Yul takes water from her water purifier and uses her skills to create a special recovery potion in front of her family.
I gave it to her father and mother and warned them again.
“If you want to see your daughter being captured by the U.S. Secret intelligence agency and subjected to biological experimentation, keep casting magic spells like that.”
“You’re a secret intelligence agency. Haven’t you read too many of your novels?”
“Does it make sense that this kind of ability exists?”
“…”
After thinking about it, Ji Ha-yul looked pitifully at her younger sister who kept her mouth shut. After drinking the special recovery medicine, she spoke to her father and mother who opened their eyes wide.
“If you make something like this and sell it, people you know will notice it right away. Then it’s war from then on. “The serenity that her mother loves will disappear from that day?”
“Uh, um…”
Ji Cheon-hyuk stared at the remaining special recovery medicine with deep eyes.
Definitely that day… Considering the fairy who appeared in her dream, it is difficult to say that this was something that only her daughter experienced.
Here’s how her daughter came back, and she’s reluctant to talk about it.
Considering that, it would be normal to conclude that the magical world is eroding reality more extensively than one might think.
“I get it. From now on, talking about that will be strictly prohibited even at home. Neither you nor Hayun, make sure you don’t say anything. “It would be better to just forget about it.”
“I understand, honey.”
“Yes.”
And Ji Cheon-hyuk realized a sense of crisis that he should not simply assume that his daughter had returned.
You need natural camouflage. The best way would be to pretend to have amnesia.
After losing his memory and wandering around in another area, he was picked up by a kind-hearted old couple. When the old couple died of old age, he was shocked and regained his memory and returned.
‘To do that…’
Countless experiences and connections he had as an executive director of a large company come to mind. Ji Cheon-hyuk planned a plan that would make his daughter the safest.
Ji Ji-yul’s concerns were not resolved, but a few days later the family once again recognized the importance of the current situation.
Ji Ji-yul discovered the cause of the mental confusion that was tormenting him by chance.
“… So, when you cross the dimensional wall, your body breaks down into almost atomic units and then reassembles, and your body becomes better in balance, but that’s why I’m experiencing this mental confusion right now?”
“Okay. You are an Earthling, but through awakening in Nionebres, you reached superhuman status and lived for over 200 years. Can you be confident that there is no gap between the body, mind, and soul?”
“I can’t…”
“To put it bluntly, the great sage of Nionebres was mentally cornered. Even after 200 years, he was obsessed with revenge and was mentally unstable. To make matters worse, my body hasn’t changed much since the time of the trip.”
Hwanin pointed out that it was clearly an abnormal condition, but Ji Ji-ryul was unable to protest.
A few days ago, when he went to the department store with his younger brother to buy winter clothes, Ji Ha-yul was shocked by the response of the department store employee who saw him as his younger brother, not Hayun.
He was clearly his older sister until he tripped…
“If such a spirit and body passed through the dimensional membrane, disintegrated, reassembled, grew again, and reached puberty, your confusion would be explained.”
“…”
It’s been 3 weeks since I’ve been looking for an ID card. All that’s left is to get one piece, Namelia’s, and you’re done.
While walking around the studio apartment in Sillim-dong with Hwan-in and Hwan-yeon and talking about small things, Ji Ji-yul started complaining about things at home. When she said that her mental confusion had been going on for several months, Hwan-in pointed out the cause. …
‘It fits exactly.’
Comparing her photo from 200 years ago just before Tripping with her current self, her breasts and buttocks have gotten a little bigger, but other than that, there hasn’t been much change.
Her father is also close to 180 cm tall and her mother is also over 170 cm tall. Her younger brother is also around 180 cm tall, and her parents and her maternal family are all tall. But she wonders whether she will be 160 now.
Even the young female college students passing by now seem more mature than themselves.
Hwan-in waited for her female college students to pass by, looking sideways at her, and then she patted Ji-ha Yul’s head.
“I feel like you have concerns other than household chores, but you don’t seem like you want to talk about it, so I’ll try not to pry. However, my judgment is that confusion arises because your body and mind are growing.”
“… !”
Ji Ji-yul’s heart fluttered for a moment, wondering if his delusion had been discovered, and he desperately pretended not to be.
However, my heart starts pounding, blood rushes to my face, and I start to develop a fever. If things continue like this, the sly coach will get caught… !
If the man discovers that delusion, the only way is for him to bite his tongue and die.
Ji Ha Yul clenched his fists and made up his mind, but salvation came.
“There’s another person over there, Hwanin. “I think it’s a woman?”
“Hmm.”
His attention shifted to Hwan-yeon’s notification, and he quietly sighed in relief, thinking that Ji Ji-yul had survived.
And I tried to reset my mind, which was becoming more complicated.
For the past three weeks, she had been staying with Hwanin every day, and her delusions were gradually getting worse, like walking up the stairs.
That is the aftereffects of growing body and mind.
‘That means the confusion will naturally subside over time, right?’
That can’t be possible. How can the feelings that begin to flow from emotions be dismissed as confusion? During his days as a great sage, cool-headed reason points out that there is no such thing as chaos subsiding…
Ji Ji-yul’s girlish sensibility and monogamous modern man’s sense took pains to ignore such criticism.
Do you think I will fall for a pervert libertine with ten women?
“Underground rate.”
“Uh, huh?!”
“I’m just saying this just in case, but if something is difficult to resolve or a difficult situation arises at home, please tell me at any time. “We will help you.”
Ji Ji-yul’s heart tightened as he heard Hwan-in’s considerate story, and he could barely answer.
