I’m the Only One Who Can’t See Ghosts - I’m the Only One Who Can’t See Ghosts chapter 35

35 – Noble Yu Hajin (2)

Emotions are truly bothersome.

Although it certainly exists within my heart, I cannot determine when it entered or when it will leave. So, when did this anger that now fills my heart come in?

I stared at the massive door opened by the director of the research lab as I pondered.

Why did I shatter the headache of the subordinate of Cheonsu with a soju bottle?

What made me so angry that I broke my promise with my younger sister?

Since then, everything went wrong. I couldn’t control my anger.

Why didn’t I pretend to be afraid of ghosts at the Pian Station?

Was it because the anger surged inside me as I thought about being scared of ghosts in front of the blood on the floor of the Pian Station?

Was it when I faced the one called “Dreamer”?

Why did I act like it didn’t bother me seeing the young psychics suffer in the DMZ? Why did I get angry when I tried to act like other psychics?

And now, why am I so angry?

Where does this anger come from?

The ones held as experimental subjects, the humans tortured to protect them, Giriyeon, who cried as her mother was cut off.

When they think, anger wells up.

Was I really such a just person?

Even though I abandoned my own family.

“Haah.”

It doesn’t matter where this intense anger came from, even if they curse and call me a fool. Today, I will crush these bastards.

After glancing at my deteriorating face, the director of the research lab muttered, “Why is it opening so late?”

Shoo—

White smoke spewed out from the door.

The massive door fully opened.

Behind the door was a hall-like, massive room.

In that massive room, there were only transparent glass cabinets and something black inside the cabinets. Such a waste of space.

“That is the Black Sheath of the Spirit’s Confine, Heukcho.”

The director of the research lab pointed at the cabinets.

Inside the cabinets, the Black Sheath was a long, black object. It was not thick enough to be called a sword, didn’t have a handle, and wasn’t sharp. However, it resembled a sword.

It looked just like a scabbard.

So, without even realizing it, I said:

“A scabbard?”

“The words of the King are correct. Heukcho was the strongest scabbard among the Spirit’s Confine and the only scabbard capable of confining the Black Sword.”

The director of the research institute seemed to be excited as he spoke rapidly.

“A sheath that can completely suppress the Dark Sword. Do you understand what that means? If the sheath is a physical phenomenon, but its origin is due to psychic abilities, then it means that complete nullification is possible.”

The director didn’t stop talking.

“It means that even if a skilled practitioner of Ki Gong destroys a mountain with Ki Gong, the kinetic energy of the rocks rolling down can be eliminated using the Dark Sheath. And if a master of the Sun-Moon Five Virtues Technique sets a mountain on fire, that heat energy can be nullified using the Dark Sheath. Of course, such miracles are only possible by expending one’s enlightenment. Isn’t that fascinating?!”

“Shut up.”

Why is he so noisy?

I’m getting irritated.

Anyway, I roughly understood how to use that thing.

It means that it can ignore the physical phenomena caused by the residual psychic abilities. If I have that, I won’t have to suffer from getting hit by stone fragments like at the Pian-yeok Station. No, hold on.

“Can it only nullify when it comes into contact with the Dark Sheath?”

“Yes, that’s correct. Only physical phenomena that come into contact with the Dark Sheath can be nullified.”

Hmm, it’s not as great as I expected.

If it’s a visible threat, I can avoid it anyway, and if it’s too fast to see, I can’t block it with the Dark Sheath.

But it’s definitely better than nothing.

I said without hiding my annoyance.

“I’ll take it. Bring it to me.”

“Yes, I will bring the truth to your excellency.”

When the director pressed something, a transparent display case opened, and the sheath, called Dark Sheath, slowly came forward.

The director held it with both hands and politely offered it to me.

I muttered as I held the Dark Sheath.

“I will meet Gi-ryeon and then go.”

Let’s release Gi-ryeon, who is said to be extremely powerful.

And let’s destroy this place.

It’s a norm for the experimental subjects trapped in the laboratory to escape, and it’s a normal sight for a secret research facility to meet its explosive ending.

Today, let’s really make a big commotion.

Gi-ryeon lost track of time within the insanity that was consuming him.

It was painful, bitter, sad, and hateful.

He had forgotten what he had once dreamed of as his true self.

Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill.

I kill. I kill. I kill. I kill. I kill.

Giriyeon’s heart was filled with murder.

Clang- Clang-

Even though the prison door opened, Giriyeon didn’t move a muscle.

After all, it must be someone who came to torment him.

And that pain would also be swept away by time.

“Hah, I’ve even received a vow not to steal my secret techniques, so I won’t do any eavesdropping or surveillance.”

A man’s voice could be heard.

However, Giriyeon still didn’t move.

“After taking a closer look, he just seems to be in his twenties. Is this person really the strongest master of the Taekwondo and the Taekwondo Gate?”

Upon hearing the words Taekwondo and Taekwondo Gate, Giriyeon flinched a little, but still didn’t move.

“Giriyeon-ssi?”

“I kill.”

“What? Ah, I’m not an enemy, I’ve come to rescue you.”

“I kill. I kill.”

“You like killing. But shouldn’t you save the innocent people and victims who have been captured here, instead of just killing the bad guys?”

“I kill them all.”

Trying to protect the innocent people, but look what happened to himself.

Betrayed and ended up in a place like this.

Now, he will live only for himself.

He will kill them all without hesitation.

After finishing his thoughts, Giriyeon’s gaze became ominous.

Upon hearing those words, the man fell silent.

The man spoke again.

“Well, if you’ve been trapped in a place like this for a long time, it’s natural for your mind to go haywire. But your gaze seems fine, you seem like a proper crazy guy.”

“I kill. I kill the ordinary people too. I kill you too.”

“But I will still save you.”

But Yu Hajin had no choice.

Because Giriyeon had to strike him in order to collapse this place.

But Giriyeon didn’t understand that.

Save the person who claims to kill oneself?

Where can such a crazy fool be found?

It’s as if it’s not the same person as before.

Thinking of his past self, Kiryeon clenched his teeth.

“You’re unpleasant. I’ll kill you.”

But the man ignored Kiryeon’s words and touched the golden rope with a seal. Whoever tries to untie it will receive curses that are more than ten times what Kiryeon has.

If the man had come here unharmed, he was undoubtedly a master.

If he was such a master, he would definitely recognize the gold seal contained in that rope.

But the man started tearing off the ropes without saying a word.

You free the person who knows they will be cursed when they die?

Kiryeon widened his eyes, watching the scene.

“Why are you so stubborn. It’s harder than tearing off a chain-link fence.”

The man who had undone all the gold seals that bound Kiryeon said.

“I’ve heard that Kiryeon fought for many people. And then ended up trapped in a place like this.”

Kiryeon looked at the man silently.

He was a man with a cold yet somewhat forgiving face.

“So?”

The man did not answer Kiryeon’s question.

He just turned around and left the prison.

The man left because he thought that if he used his humble speaking ability to comfort or apologize, it would only anger the mad Kiryeon. But in Kiryeon’s eyes, the man’s actions appeared differently.

“Are you trying to show through actions? I want to kill you. You’re not like my old self.”

Just showing his back without a word.

That meant showing the answer through actions. Kiryeon really wanted to know what that answer was.

And if the answer was pathetic, he would kill everyone here along with it.

“You’re quite bothersome. You’re bothering me too much. You’re bothering me so much that I might go mad.”

Kiryeon murmured as he got up from his seat.

Kiryeon was born as a dual existence and was one of the strongest among the strong. And he was the pinnacle of Gongchi, a technique that only deals with positive and negative energies without using soul engraving, spiritual alchemy, or psychic resonance.

In other words, it meant that Kiryeon had no one besides himself who had a perfect chance of winning in this world, except for the transcendent existence who was not in this world.

Kiryeon manifested his fundamental oath and instantly restored his body, as someone who had fully understood the life belonging to the positive energy.

Afterward, he lightly stretched and focused positive energy in one hand and negative energy in the other.

“Yin and Yang Energy Manipulation.”

And she crossed her body, bringing her hands together as one.

“Breaking Wave at the New Year.”

With those words, the prison that confined Giriyeon disappeared.

* * *

“Your Majesty, did you have a good time? Giriyeon is currently-“

Ignoring the words of the Head of the Research Institute, I ran frantically. Giriyeon is about to escape.

Where is the best place to stage a protest in this research institute?

There was only the experimental subject storage facility to hold people captive.

The saying that it is good to confine people also means that it is good to stage a protest from within. It seems I have no choice but to escape to that place.

Rooooar- Crashhhhh-

The entire corridor began to vibrate with a tremendous noise.

When I looked back, the corridor in the distance seemed to have tripled in size.

“She was really a damn strong woman!!!”

If she goes crazy, she can do the work of ten people all by herself!!!

She’s just a living bulldozer. A living forklift crane!!!

I shouted when I saw the security forces rushing towards me.

“Halt the intruder immediately!!! It is an order as Your Majesty!!!”

“Proclaim the truth to Your Majesty!!!”

The security forces heard my words and rushed towards the distant corridor.

And then, the noise resounded once again.

“Hurry, we need to get the people out!!!”

Run, damn it!!!

And so, I arrived at the experimental subject storage facility.

And I quickly dialed a number. When the door opened, I was met with the terrified gazes of numerous people.

“You fools. I knew this would happen. So, you’ve come to save the criminals after all.”

At that moment, a chilling voice came from behind.

Unlike our Nayu, it was the appearance of the insanely fierce Giriyeon.

Giriyeon was completely naked, with blood smeared all over her arms, looking at me. Except for a somewhat distorted expression, she had the charisma of a Western mixed blood beauty, giving me the feeling of a war goddess from Greek mythology brought to life.

Her combat power is probably incomparable to that of the war goddess.

The goddess of war, Giryeon, spoke.

“Ah, it’s so funny. Aren’t you just like the old me?”

Giryeon pointed at me with her finger.

I clenched my fists tightly, as if holding a sword, feeling nervous.

“But since you did me a favor, I’ll let you live if you leave this place.”

“Can I take the people with me?”

“Of course not. You still think loosely like the old me. Who else will fix this if not for me?”

Giryeon smirked and shouted.

“Yin-Yang Energy, self, show your power. Destroy. Twilight.”

Giryeon traced her finger from left to right.

What is she doing?

But soon after, screams from the people were heard from behind.

“I can’t believe it, what kind of power is that?”

“Mom, I’m scared.”

“It’s okay, everything will be fine.”

“That person used that instead of us…”

What the hell. I didn’t see anything with my own eyes. But seeing me not do anything, Giryeon suddenly exploded in anger.

“Are you just standing there quietly to protect the culprits? I never thought there would be another idiot like you besides the old me in this world!!!”

Giryeon wiped her eyes with a strange expression, laughing.

“How pathetic. So pathetic!!! Guys like you should fix that habit from the start.”

Giryeon took her stance again.

With both hands forming different seals, it was a strange posture of gathering them together and stretching out her hands.

“Sound Energy. Utter chaos. This is a technique that forces the Moon and the Five Elements back. You weaklings can’t handle it. Run away.”

Giryeon laughed softly as she spoke.

But I couldn’t see anything with my own eyes.
