I was a student at ILJIN. I stared at him with a grim face. Something about him frightens me.
I moved sideways, and he went to the hyenas I killed.
“Okay.”
He sat down, touching the body of the hyena, making a noise. He was obsessing over it.
He moved while everyone avoided him. They couldn’t grasp the situation. That raised questions.
Was he a decisive person, so he acted fast, or he just knew the hyenas were coming?
He diligently roamed and gathered the hyenas he killed. It seemed that a couple of tattooed arm people were asking why he was collecting bodies. Then their faces turned red and retreated. They seemed to have heard insulting words.
After that, it was unusual to see them gathering and chatting together. The fight seemed to be going on soon.
I cried because I was anxious, then there was a popping sound from the sky. As I lifted my head, firecrackers were bursting like fireworks at the amusement park.
“What is this!?”
As the colorful flames went out and smoked scattered, strange creatures popped out of them. Their shape was similar to that of a human, but their skin was red as if painted with blood. Their eyes looked very odd, like an egg yolk. Two horns raised on their forehead.
The freak creature attracted people’s attention by flapping their two wings on its back.
“Oh, uh.”
“What is that?”
“It’s a monster.”
“It’s not a monster; it’s a devil.”
People screamed in surprise. They reminded me of a devil, especially with their long tail and the trident they were holding in the right hand.
Everyone is staring at the devil-like monster, and Poison hasn’t even looked at it. I smirked as I stared at him, cutting the hyena’s belly with a dagger. An intense flame burst, and monsters appeared, and he was in his own world.
Is it so important to split the hyena’s belly?
At that moment, I decided to follow him. He picked up a dagger and entered the hyena’s boat, but the tattooed men moved towards the monster. Seeing their touching shoulders and glaring eyes reminds me of mafia organizations.
Are they mafia?
I set the dagger to one side and turned my attention to them. Like a sumo wrestler, a tall, fat young man pounced towards the air and s
creamed.
“What kind of monster are you?!”
The mysterious creature leaned back and replied.
“I am your guide.”
While asking a question, he didn’t expect the monster to answer. When it replied, the sumo guy stuttered.
“Uh, uh, uh, the monster is talking.”
The monster bounced his fingers and politely moved his hand, like a waiter guiding a guest.
“I am astonished to know that I look like a devil in your culture. But I am not a devil. I’m more of an angel, so call me an angel. ”
The sumo guy looked back and
answered him.
“Angels don’t have horns.”
I noticed the sumo guy was shorter than the tattoed guys who moved together. However, he was taking complete control of the surrounding atmosphere.
I saw a mafia boss.
The man, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, separated from them, turned around next to the gangsters, and came forward. Then, he sharpened his voice and opened his mouth.
“Are you trying to kidnap us?”
He wanted to be calm. So he started speaking in a calm tone, but he failed because he faltered at the end.
Yes, it’s hard to keep calm when that monster is in front of you.
The self-proclaimed angel pointed to the sky with a trident.
“It was all done above. Unfortunately, I don’t have that ability. ”
The gangster boss yelled.
“So, you are really planning to take us!”
“Please calm down. I can’t guide you properly. ”
“I can’t be calm!”
As the boss rolled his feet, the sumo guy threw the spear he used to kill the hyenas. He wasn’t a sumo wrestler, but a spearman. I thought that a self-proclaimed angel would be stuck in the window and die.
They shouldn’t kill the only one who knows the situation.
It was useless to worry. The self-proclaimed angel reached out and grabbed the flying spear and returned it to the owner at a faster speed.
The thrown spear stuck in the owner’s ship.
“Ahh!”
The sumo guy screamed as he was holding a spear stuck in his stomach and dying. A self-proclaimed angel shook his index finger from side to side.
“Attack on guides is prohibited.”
Then he frowned and added.
“You can’t beat me.”
He looked insulted because he was treated like a preschooler. His eyes looked frightened.
“This bastard!”
As the boss cursed and moved the ax in his hand, his men lifted their weapons all at once. It seemed that they would run right away at the command of their boss.
The self-proclaimed angel warned with a soft voice.
“If you mess with me, you’ll die.”
The boss’s eyes trembled more severely than before. At that moment, I noticed that the boss is not angry; he is frightened.
He came out strong to hide his fear. I couldn’t be wrong.
I was right. The boss lowered his ax and tilted his head.
“Why did you kidnap us?”
“I want to give you a gift.”
The boss was sarcastic, pointing to the sumo guy who died.
“Is that a gift?”
“You are all chosen. Blame me all you want, but if I leave you here, you’ll die.”
The mafia boss shouted.
“You mean you can go back?”
The self-proclaimed angel twirled his tail.
“Of course, I can go back.”
“Please go back now.”
“Not now.”
“Why not?”
“I haven’t received a gift yet.”
As the self-proclaimed angel pointed to the hyenas, the mafia boss couldn’t keep up. His hands trembled when he took his glasses off and rubbed them on his hem.
The mafia boss exclaimed.
“That’s crazy, hyenas, as a gift!”
“Split the belly and take out the little beads.”
As soon as the self-proclaimed angel said that, I looked at Poison. While everyone was paying attention to the self-proclaimed angel, he had already found several beads.
That person! He knew it in advance!
How did he know that there are beads?
I looked up at the self-proclaimed angel and raised my voice.
“What will you do with the beads?”
“Eat it.”
“Eat it? That? Why?”
A self-proclaimed angel laughed.
“The beads will give me strength.”
Will the mysterious bead from the hyena’s stomach give strength?
I am very suspicious. I doubt it can give someone real powers.
What are your intentions?
I blurted the question.
“Why are you trying to help us?”
“Your world will face a big crisis soon. It will take a lot of power to overcome it. Overcome your trials by having power, and go back to save your world. “
The gangster boss said coldly.
“I am not interested in saving the world. The world has done nothing for me, so why should I save it? I hate it. I won’t, so please let me go. “
The devil-like angel waved his finger.
“It’s not possible. You were selected, and so you cannot refuse. ”
“Is there really no way?”
“There is a way to pass the test.”
“Except for that?”
“There is nothing but death.”
