The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism

chapter 8



“Kiaaa!”

Lee Soo-yeon’s eyes were colored with bewilderment at Ma’s gruesome scream.

But even when I tried to move, my lungs were squeezed and I couldn’t breathe, and I couldn’t even lift a finger.

ears.

A scream uttered by spirits, hardening the mind and body of a human whose resentment has melted.

Originally, this degree of return could not tie the movements of Lee Soo-yeon and other teaching assistants.

This is to the extent that they can defend themselves just by raising their spiritual power.

However, the problem was that he was ambushed before he could raise his spiritual power.

“Keuugh…!”

Suyeon Lee groaned at the sudden situation.

Before I knew it, the han I had taken out for practice had become an anima.

how the hell

It was impossible.

You have to build up your own karma, but it can become a spirit.

But how can you build up karma in the middle of this auditorium?

“Die!”

The spirit sighed again.

After becoming a spirit and gaining intelligence, it was already speaking human language.

And the anima moved.

The spirit’s hand turns into a giant scythe.

The Spirit, which no longer needed to be tied to a medium, immediately headed for the nearest human being, Kang Jin-woo.

Lee Soo-yeon’s expression hardened.

The symptoms of paralysis caused by ears will be relieved in a few seconds anyway.

However, with that amount of time, it was enough time for Kang Jin-woo, who would have been equally hardened, to be killed by Ryeong.

The moment she foresaw the death of Kang Jin-woo.

A twinge of lust sounded in her ears.

“No, f*ck!”

For some reason, Kang Jin-woo did not harden.

He was startled as he watched the anima approaching him.

“It moves! He said he wasn’t moving!”

He spat out his displeasure and hit the hand of the spirit flying towards him with a spanner.

The reaction speed could not be said to be fast, but the angle of the shot was clever.

Ryeong’s hand barely brushes Kang Jin-woo’s neck.

Although in the eyes of others it just seemed lucky.

To Lee Soo-yeon, it seemed like a thoroughly calculated move.

So, a possibility flashed through Lee Soo-yeon’s mind.

perhaps.

Will Kang Jin-woo exorcise that spirit like this?

If so, that was a huge deal.

A training center trainee with no experience exterminates spirits.

Has there ever been an exorcist with that much potential?

However, Kang Jin-woo once again betrayed Lee Soo-yeon’s expectations.

“Ouch, f*ck! Don’t be still, let’s do something about this!”

After repelling the spirit’s attack once, he quickly turned his back and ran away.

Also in the direction where the assistants are.

Don’t you know that assistants are hardened?

If you know at all, what an impudent act.

“ah···!”

It was then that Soo-yeon Lee and her teaching assistants were finally relieved of the paralysis caused by returning home.

Lee Soo-yeon didn’t even stop breathing and moved right away.

She took out the dagger she had hidden in her bosom and in an instant cut through the spirits.

“Ju…Porridge…”

This command is a newly created white command.

Because of this, the karma it accumulated was still insignificant, and it could not even handle the blow of Lee Soo-yeon, a veteran exorcist.

So, the spirit split in half and disappeared.

“·······”

After confirming that the spirit had disappeared, Lee Soo-yeon looked around with a confused face.

The trainees as well as the teaching assistants could not hide their embarrassment.

And Kang Jin-woo… ran away right in front of the exit before he knew it, and was sending a suspicious gaze this way.

***

After the situation has been somewhat settled.

Afternoon training ended there.

It was a natural measure because I was the last order of the practice anyway, and it was ambiguous to proceed with the training any further.

I left the auditorium with Kim Da-yeong and Lee Hyun-seok, whom I had been hanging out with.

“It must have been a big deal. Are you okay?”

“Yes, what…”

“I was really surprised. That scream… you said it was a deafening sound, right? It made me feel really bad and all of a sudden I couldn’t move.”

“I did too. It gave me goosebumps.”

Kim Da-yeong and Lee Hyun-seok chatted about what happened a little while ago.

But I couldn’t focus on their conversation.

My ability to see the level.

There has been a change.

A frame that made it look like a game screen with HP barrels.

For the first time, a certain sentence was floating in the translucent square box that was a part of it.

<The monster has fallen!>

<Experience is distributed according to contribution.>

<Level up! You have reached level 2!>

<Skill functions are opened.>

<The quest function is opened.>

I did something, it was like a game log.

In addition, the content was that skills and quests were opened.

“under···!”

I checked it out and couldn’t hide the feeling of collapse.

Yes, the game screen was floating, but there was no way I could only see the level.

However, after gaining the ability, I thought it was just a decoration because there was no response even if I shouted at the skill window and status window dozens of times.

To think this was a form that only unlocked when you leveled up.

Recalling the ugliness of a few days ago, I sighed.

Right after seeing the level, I shouted at the status window in the personal training ground.

The look in Lee Soo-yeon’s eyes at that time was still vivid.

A look beyond just an ordinary idiot, as if looking at a twisted idiot from the nether world.

That night I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t sleep well.

It was just because the level was low.

“No, that’s okay…”

I shook my head and forgot the painful memories.

I looked at the game frame again.

Then, as expected, there were new letters at the bottom of the frame that had not been seen before.

S and Q.

It must be an icon representing skills and quests without thinking too deeply.

I looked at S first, and without having to say anything, the skill window immediately opened.

“hmm···”

There wasn’t much to see in the skill window.

There is only one thing, a smash.

it’s smash

I didn’t remember learning.

However, I remember seeing it in the item description of Monkey Spanner.

I did something, but was it a skill rather than a simple stat?

I focused my attention on the smash.

It was to know how to use it.

Then kindly help was printed.

<When using a skill, aim at the target and shout the skill name.>

“·······”

So look at me and hold a monkey wrench in front of the ghost and smash—-shi! Are you saying that?

It seems that there is still something to be ashamed of.

After closing the skill window in a bad mood, this time I opened the quest window.

But the quest window was empty.

A black screen with no text written on it.

Well, since I’ve never received a quest, it’s only natural that I don’t have anything.

“Eh… tsk.”

I expected a lot, but the income was not much.

No, it’s a quest anyway.

If you opened the skill window, wouldn’t it be normal to give at least one skill?

At least it would have been nice if they gave me something like a fireball.

While I was spitting out my dissatisfaction inside, I heard Lee Soo-yeon’s voice.

“Mr. Kang Jin-woo. Do you have a minute?”

When I looked back, Lee Soo-yeon was there.

What do you have left to say?

I sent the two people I was with to the dormitory and approached Suyeon Lee.

“I am really sorry about this. We were careless.”

Then, Lee Soo-yeon apologized to me first.

Well, it’s okay to apologize first.

‘Cause I would have died if I did.

“I will contact you separately after discussing the compensation for this with the head of the training center.”

up to the reward.

The response wasn’t bad.

So I opened my mouth with a smile.

“Oops, no. The instructors also worked hard, but everything like that.”

“It is a natural action. By the way . . . may I ask you a few questions about this matter?”

Well, that’s about it.

I nodded.

“Can you guess why Han suddenly became a spirit?”

guess

It must have been because of the sudden appearance of a level 1 Han.

Level 9 Han swallowed it and became 10, so Han evolved into an anima.

It was obvious without looking.

So I passed the story on to Lee Soo-yeon.

“A new resentment has arisen? No way···”

However, Lee Soo-yeon’s attitude was cautious.

“If that’s true, it makes sense that we didn’t notice. It is not easy to detect the newly born resentment and the karma that is embracing it at the right time. Moreover, it is even more so if there is a stronger demon nearby. but···”

Lee Soo-yeon glanced at me and opened her mouth again.

“Han doesn’t show up for no reason. Of course, this is not to say that Kang Jin-woo’s testimony is not believed, but all occurrences of demons must be caused by someone’s death.”

“Then it’s obvious.”

“What do you mean?”

“Was that a knife? After all, isn’t it that someone who was stabbed there died?”

“that···”

After hearing my words, Lee Soo-yeon thought for a moment.

But soon, as if he had guessed something, he opened his mouth.

“I’ll check in a little while.”

Then he called somewhere and got back right away.

It was a little blank face.

“What Kang Jin-woo said was right. The knife is the weapon involved in the robbery half a year ago. There was one death at the time, but in fact there was one more victim. He was seriously injured and was being treated in a hospital until recently. However, the victim is said to have died a little while ago.”

“Then it was right that Han was born.”

“Yes that’s right. Thanks to Kang Jin-woo, I was able to know the truth.”

Lee Soo-yeon’s gaze calmly passed me.

“I have one more question. How was Mr. Kang Jin-woo able to move even after hearing the ears?”

“that···”

I hesitated for a moment to answer.

However, when I thought about it carefully, it was not something to hide, and there was no one to listen except for Lee Soo-yeon.

So I spoke right away.

“I’m so used to peers.”

“Peer…?”

“yes. When I was a hero, I was told to bloom with such a powerful cry. At that time, I was very tired of listening to it, so it doesn’t work that much. I wonder if it’s Dragon Fear.”

“·······”

Lee Soo-yeon was silent with a delicate face.

It was a look of doubt and leaving, not even understanding.

But I couldn’t help it either.

Because I was just being honest.

If you don’t want to believe it, don’t believe it.

“Do you have any more questions?”

“Ah… no. Rest then. I will see you next week.”

The conversation with Lee Soo-yeon ended there.

I went back to my room as is.

***

Two women opened the heavy iron door and went inside.

Inside, there was a huge space made of pure white marble from the floor and walls to the ceiling.

An incredibly colorful cavity for a deep basement.

Moreover, what filled that cavity were numerous weapons.

The number is in the thousands or more.

But not one of them was the same.

It was because each one was not a mass-produced item, but a treasure with a story and legend.

In the church, sacred things are called holy things.

And a woman stood in front of one of the relics.

“·······”

Age is early 20’s.

Her silky blonde hair came down to her waist.

The slightly raised eyebrows gave off an extremely sharp atmosphere.

With her monastic name Monica, she glared at one of the long spears tied in gold and immediately picked it up.

“This is it.”

“That’s . . . Moses’ staff.”

Another woman who came with her was delighted.

“It’s not as good as Abraham, but Moses ranks high among leaders. Can you really afford that? If I did something wrong, would I die?”

The woman asked with intimidation.

But Monica immediately nodded.

“No need to worry. Because it chose me.”

“I am confident. great. Then break the seal.”

At the woman’s words, Monica cut off the golden string that bound the spear.

Then, tremendous spiritual power emanated from the spear in Monica’s hand.

But it slowly went quiet after only a few seconds.

It quickly became quiet as if nothing had happened.

The woman applauded.

“Great, Monica. To really be chosen by Moses’ staff is extremely satisfying.”

“Thank you, chieftain.”

“With this, another sacred object has entered our tribe.”

The woman said with a happy face.

“By the way, you said you were leaving for Korea next week, right? Isn’t it too soon?”

“In Korea, you must complete a state-run education course to qualify as an exorcist. Because of that training, my schedule was pushed back.”

“Was there a rule like that? It’s a country that likes control anyway. Monica, too, did you dare to ask for an appointment to be sent to such a country?”

The woman turned and walked towards the exit.

Monica followed suit.

Then, at the door, the woman turned to Monica.

“The reason you are going to Korea is because you want to get revenge on that demon?”

“yes.”

“Whoops… You’re still honest, Monica.”

The woman with a wry smile walked out the door.

As the woman and Monica left the reliquary, the thick iron door closed by itself.

“But be careful. Korea is an area where dark spirits have appeared three times in 20 years in that narrow land. Not only that, but they also install demons and monsters. Thanks to that, the church is also gaining power, but the devil is also strong.”

“I am prepared.”

Monica bowed her head deeply and answered.

The woman smiled softly.

“great. Then I look forward to seeing results, Monica.”
