Chapter 165 Magic (2)
“Mahwa? It’s definitely not in the form of a flower.”
Baek Eun-kyung nodded her head as she looked at the flower patterns painted on the victims’ bodies.
“When did the demons appear?”
“The association said it would take about 10 days to investigate.”
“Did all the corpses of demons come from Gwangju?”
“okay.”
If he found the traces of demons in 10 days, it would be quicker, but Baek Woojin’s expression darkened.
“Several guilds are searching, but the identity of the demons has not been revealed yet. There is no refusal because it is a task that my father directly gave me at the request of the association.”
“I didn’t mean to refuse from the beginning.”
“Okay then.”
Baek Eun-kyung got up from her seat.
She made eye contact with Baek Woojin for a moment before turning her head.
“The departure is tomorrow at 6 am. Don’t be late.”
Baek Eun-kyung did not wait for Baek Woojin’s reply and left her break room.
“Well… .”
Even though Baek Eun-kyung left, Baek Woojin continued to look at the pictures of her mission book. Her hardened expression did not seem to be unraveling.
– Do you know this demon?
“He was the one who had a huge accident in Japan before returning to the demon tribe called Caliburn.”
– A huge accident?
“okay. Because it killed ten thousand people in one moment.”
– Do, ten thousand units?
“I can’t see this flower.”
Baek Woojin pointed to the black floral prints in the form of flames engraved on the victims’ bodies.
“When Caliburn turned the Magi into poison and injected them into humans, this flower pattern came into being. Anyone with this pattern will obey Caliburn’s orders.”
– Is it brainwashing? That’s an annoying ability.
“But brainwashing is not the true power of Mahwa.”
– What else do you have?
“Caliburn cuts magic in order to feed humans into seeds.”
– Seeds, nutrients from seeds? What do you mean?
At the unexpected words, the voice of darkness rose one level higher.
“Caliburn has a special ability to grow a tree called Magical Water.”
– Magical water?
“It is a tree that grows with human vitality and mana, and burns with the magic of demons. No, it would be better to see it as a giant magic bomb rather than a rebuke.”
-Well, that means that 10,000 people died…
“okay. In a previous life, Caliburn grew a magical beast at once and then exploded it, killing countless people.”
Everyone knew it because it was so terrifying, nobody expected it, and it happened so quickly that it could not be dealt with.
“Caliburn has drenched the souls of dead humans, tainted with Magi, and became terribly strong.”
– You didn’t know that there was such a huge magic gathering?
“You said that the magical water is a tree that grows with human energy and mana. No one can feel it unless he injects magic energy into the seeds to grow the magic beast.”
-Then you don’t even know where the seeds of the Magical Water are?
“Of course I don’t know.”
In case of Japan, the original place, it is impossible to know where the seeds are in Gwangju or where they are popped.
[A new quest has arrived.]Caliburn is a strong yet cautious demon who enjoys genocide. Eliminate him and the Demon Beast to stop the horrific massacre.
Condition: Remove the seeds of Caliburn and Magical Beast.
Quest Acceptance Benefit: You can see who the magic flower is.
Reward: 2000 points. special title.
-Wait a minute! Even when magic happens, the magic doesn’t show up?
“So it’s hard to find.”
– The rewards are good, but this quest will be quite difficult.
“Well… .”
Baek Woojin repeated his memories before his return.
As he recalled information about Caliburn, a method came to mind.
“I need something important.”
-item?
“I need items, but the most important thing is my acting skills.”
Baek Woojin pulled out his cell phone and dialed somewhere.
His gaze continued to be fixed on the demon.
**
Baek Woojin and Baek Eun-kyung arrived at the Gwangju branch of the Association of Talented People.Unlike Baek Eun-kyung, who brought an escort and sword, Baek Woojin did not bring anyone.
“What do you think about the fact that even though the medical school is not even bringing Moon Ju-young?”
“I am enough alone.”
Baek Woojin made a proud expression with his arms crossed.
“… .”
Baek Eun-kyung looked at Baek Woojin with an annoyed expression and went into the branch of the association, and Baek Woojin followed him with a dazed expression.
“You are here!”
A middle-aged man in a suit in front of the conference room on the 3rd floor bowed his head toward Baek Woojin and Baek Eun-kyung.
“My name is Jaejin Heo from the Demon Search Division.”
“This is Eunkyung Baek.”
“… This is Baek Woojin.”
Baek Woojin looked at Jae Jin Heo’s thick left arm and greeted him belatedly.
“It is an honor to meet you two. The meeting will start soon, so come in.”
Heo Jae-jin opened the door of the conference room and guided Baek Woojin and Baek Eun-kyung.
‘After all, only the strong have gathered.’
Baek Woojin nodded his head, grasping the abilities of the people in the meeting room.
Even those with the lowest level of ability are in the late 5th grade, and the strong ones have surpassed the 7th grade.
Since it was a mission to search and eliminate demons that could not be caught by their tails, they were all strong men whose names and faces were known.
– Aren’t you destined to be with him? we met again
Heuk-am giggled at the Jeok Yeon-hwa sitting in the middle.
“Junior! long time no see.”
Jeok Kyung-hoon, who was next to Jeok Yeon-hwa, waved his hand.
“You also came. After all, there are demons, but there is no way they can be left out.”
Jeok Kyung-hoon looked at Baek Eun-kyung and smiled.
Baek Eun-kyung did not respond to Jeok Kyung-hoon’s words and sat down in the empty seat.
“It’s still cold. How’s your junior?”
The enemy Kyung-hoon shrugged his shoulders and looked at Baek Woojin again.
“Yes.”
“Did you grow up again?”
Jeok Kyung-hoon, who was looking at Baek Woojin, widened his eyes.
Baek Woojin grew up and appeared again in a short period of time. He seemed to be growing like a sprout, not a person.
“It’s Yeonhwa. You must give up catching up with this friend. This is a bit harsh.”
It was a joke, but it was sincere.
Jeok Yeon-hwa is also a genius, but Baek Woojin was completely different.
If he had been vigilant, he would have caught up with himself.
“Hey, why are you saying that!”
Enemy Yeon-hwa blushed and shouted at the enemy Kyung-hoon’s words as he was embarrassed.
Unlike usual, Baek Woojin didn’t play pranks on Jeok Yeon-hwa, and sat roughly in the back seat of Baek Eun-kyung.
“Hmm, can I start the meeting?”
Heo Jae-jin coughed and looked at Jeok Kyung-hoon.
“Oh, I’m sorry. Get started.”
Enemy Kyung-hoon slightly bowed his head to apologize and straightened his posture.
“thank you. So let’s get started. Currently, more than 30 demon victims have been identified, and most of the victims were located in Nam-gu, Gwangju.”
Heo Jae-jin pointed to Nam-gu on the map and continued.
“A black flower pattern appears on the body of a victim who has been attacked by demons. The strange thing is that there are no wounds from Magi anywhere.”
“then… .”
“Does that happen without any injuries?”
The talented frowned at the bizarre phenomenon.
“People with black floral prints die sooner or later. The time we figured out was about six to eight days.”
‘also.’
Hearing Jaejin Heo’s explanation, it became more clear.
Caliburn was growing the seeds of a maryeongsu somewhere in Gwangju.
Since 30 people were revealed, the number of people who actually became the nutrient for the Magical Water would be 5 to 10 times his.
“It will be easier to explore by evacuating the citizens of the Nam-gu side to the West. From now on, we will do the regional layout. first… .”
Heo Jae-jin informed his talented people which areas to explore in turn.
“Those who are capable of the new sword and white family, please take charge of the four places at the end.”
Baek Woojin and Baek Eun-kyung, along with some talented people, took over the area at the end of Nam-gu.
“Then move right away. Gwangju is large, but there are many talented people who are already searching, so you will definitely be able to find them.”
When Heo Jae-jin finished speaking, the talented people got up and started moving to the location assigned to them.
“I’m in charge of Songchon-dong and Yangchon-dong.”
“Are you going alone?”
“okay.”
“I admit that you are strong, but it is dangerous to go alone. The demon’s abilities have not been precisely revealed. My swordsmen… .”
“I do not need.”
Baek Woojin waved his hand.
“As you may know, I captured two intermediate demons alone. As soon as this demon appears in front of me, I will immediately cut off his head.”
“Don’t be cocky. You do not know the fear of demons.”
“Of course I don’t know the fear. Because it’s not scary.”
“you… .”
“Anyway, I’m going alone, so don’t let anyone go.”
Baek Woojin left the meeting room with a sad expression on his face.
“That child!”
Baek Eun-kyung wrinkled her brow and looked at Baek Woojin’s back.
Her expression was as cold as ice.
“Why, why are you doing that? I’m not that kind of person… .”
“Ttt, I said it was weird today, so I’m already fed up with my arrogance.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa was embarrassed by Baek Woojin’s changed attitude and tone of voice, while Jeok Kyung-hoon kicked his tongue and made a bitter expression.
“… .”
Min-Jun Jang, a level 6 capable person, was sitting at the back and watching him from start to finish.
**
– What did you do?
‘Acting for traveling alone.’
Baek Woojin was walking alone in the empty Songchon-dong.
-Then why are you doing that?
‘Why? I’m doing this because it’s impossible to find Caliburn.’
– Impossible?
‘Caliburn is very vigilant and is good at hiding magic. How can you find such a person in this wide Gwangju?’
Finding Caliburn hiding in Gwangju is something no one can do.
‘That’s why I was trying to call him this way.’
– Are you calling? Demon guy?
‘okay.’
Baek Woojin nodded his head slightly.
‘Caliburn wants to quickly gather mana and vitality to grow the magical beast. Then who are you going to target?’
– You must be talented. Not only the life spirit, but also a lot of mana.
‘right. Among them, even if you go alone, you will be aiming for those with strong abilities.’
– Oh, then…
‘okay. I was trying to be the bait for myself.’
Baek Woojin made a hook like a fishing hook with his fingers.
-The operation itself is fine, but will the demons come to you? you wouldn’t even know you were there
‘That’s the second reason I acted arrogantly.’
-Huh?
‘You didn’t know it, but there was only one person in the meeting room who was being manipulated by Caliburn because of the magic bloom.’
– Me, really?
‘okay. It was because of him that he acted with such pride.’
In a previous life, Caliburn did not draw the mana of some talented people, but used it as a spy.
As expected, he also made his own spy in Gwangju.
– Anyway, the hair is real.
Darkness stuck his tongue out to Baek Woojin’s strategy.
He suddenly wanted him to do something strange, and he never thought he would have such a purpose.
– So who is he?
‘Who do you think you are?’
– Hmm, there was one strange guy. There was a guy watching you without going out from the back. It was him too!
‘no.’
Baek Woojin snorted.
– Oh, no?
‘okay. It was painted on the left forearm of the person I first met with the association employee.’
– Whoops!
‘I also struggled to hide my face.’
When I first saw Heo Jae-jin, I was surprised to see the magic flower on his arm.
-Once you know that, you can track him down right away.
‘Caliburn is very careful and has a good sense of humor. As soon as you feel my energy, you will run away. Even if he catches him, he may not be able to find the seed of the Demon Spirit.’
In addition to catching Caliburn, it was not good to move hastily because you had to deal with the seeds of the Demon Spirit.
– So if he comes to you, is there any way?
‘of course.’
Baek Woojin nodded his head with a confident smile.
‘I can destroy seeds and dispose of Caliburn.’**
Heo Jae-jin went to Seo-gu to take a break after a shift in duties.
He stopped in front of a two-story building in a crowded residential area, not the accommodation provided by the association.
“Come down.”
A young man’s voice was heard.
It was low, but there was a morale that shook the mind, and it was a voice that would make you goosebumps just listening to it.
“Yes.”
Heo Jae-jin’s eyes turned cloudy like a rotten egg.
He went downstairs and stopped in front of a young man sitting in a rocking chair.
He was a man with an attractive appearance enough to slap a celebrity on TV.
But there was a cool magic flowing from his eyes that made him nauseous.
Woowook.
A black mist came out of his mouth like cigarette smoke.
This monster wearing a human skin was the demon Caliburn.
The association and talented people thought that Caliburn was in Nam-gu, but he was in the center of the West as if to make fun of everyone, and it was also in the center of a residential area.
In addition, he used Jaejin Heo, who belongs to the Demon Search Division, as his spy to obtain all information.
It was the appearance of demons who were making fun of humans.
“Report.”
“A meeting, a meeting… .”
Heo Jae-jin talked about everything that happened at the meeting.
Since he was grasping the Association in this way, Caliburn could not be caught until he was caught.
“The right guy has come.”
A sympathetic smile bloomed on Caliburn’s lips upon hearing about Baek Woojin.
It was the best prey for a person with high purity mana who traveled alone.
There were also two demons, so there was a high possibility that he was being negligent.
“Where is he?”
“So, Songchon-dong. Eww… .”
Heo Jae-jin suddenly drooled and his body trembled.
“Tsuk, is it broken?”
Caliburn looked at Jae-Jin Heo and clicked his tongue.
The purpose of magic is not to brainwash, but to inject vitality and mana into the seeds of the demon spirit.
That’s why humans with magic spells can’t be used because of problems like that after a week.
“Fulfill the purpose for which you were born.”
A large seed in the shape of a rugby ball appeared from Caliburn’s hand.
This seed is the seed of the magic spirit that he made.
“… Yes.”
Heo Jae-jin sobbed and walked and grabbed the seeds.
The seeds flashed red, and Jae-Jin Heo trembled all over his body and foamed at his mouth.
“Turn it off!”
Heo Jae-jin’s body shrank and his vitality and mana were sucked into the seeds of the magic water.
“Bye!”
Heo Jae-jin was as dry as a mummy, and his breath stopped.
The seeds of the Magical Water gleamed in white and blue light that did not match the name.
“Almost done.”
Caliburn looked at the large seed of the demonic number with his proud eyes.
He had been collecting them step by step before coming here, so the completion of the magic number was not long.
“Shall we go see the guy who will become a new manure?”
**
Baek Woojin was kicking the pebbles like he was annoyed and returning to the association.
– He doesn’t show up. It seems your prediction is wrong.
‘Then you will be destroyed.’
-Sometimes even monkeys fall from trees. It’s time for you to be wrong, too.
‘It is, but I wish it wasn’t now.’
Baek Woojin frowned.
If this goes wrong, he doesn’t end up with no reward for himself. There will be huge damage.
‘Is it necessary to pursue people with magical powers even now? ’
As Baek Woojin sighed, a violent tremor occurred from Sircon’s Holy Spirit bracelet on his left arm.
It was invisible because of the black cannon, but it was shining.
Woowook.
At the same time, Baek Woojin could feel the thrilling magic behind his back that made his feathers stand tall.
-This…
‘come!’
Baek Woojin looked at his thigh once, hiding his blooming smile, and then turned around.
