My Girlfriend Is a Shaman - My Girlfriend Is a Shaman chapter 50

50 – Knowing your future spouse #7

A terminal scream came from Jewoong’s severed head.

━━Kihihihi

Jeung’s head and torso, separated by the sword of Gunung, were left shaking for a long time. The sight of the straw doll moving while dismembered was extremely bizarre, but it was not dangerous. Soon, the screaming coming from Jewoong’s head stopped, as if he had run out of breath.

“Jinwoo, another problem has been solved. The soul has disappeared.”

“It’s gone? Is that true?”

“I can feel the unclean energy disappearing.”

Sera said to me with a smile. Sera, who had developed a spiritual spirit, informed me that the soul residing in Jewoong had disappeared. But I couldn’t rest assured. I took the EMF meter out of my coat and tried it out.

One light on the EMF meter came on.

At this level, it meant that there were no ghosts nearby. Lee Eun-sook’s soul, which had been residing in the temple, clearly disappeared. I finally felt relieved. Everything must be thoroughly checked. Because the moment you thought it was over was the most dangerous.

“Let’s clean up properly and then go back. I have to let Da-jeong know that the work is done.”

“I’m glad I know the law of command. If I hadn’t known, I would have been in a lot of trouble.”

“Your notes are a treasure.”

If we didn’t have a notebook recording my father’s story, we would have had a hard time figuring out the method of worship on our own. It’s surprising, but I thought it was a good idea to make notes in advance when I was young. If I hadn’t had the notebook, I would have forgotten most of those countless stories.

We cleaned up the inside of the haunted house. I picked up Jewoong and Tonpa and erased our footprints and fingerprints by wiping them with a handkerchief. Other than that, there was no need to touch anything else. The house was a mess anyway, so even if we threw some things, it didn’t change much. A full-length mirror was simply broken in an abandoned house.

“Let’s go out.”

“It’s already Sunday. This weekend was also full of thrills.”

We climbed over the window frame and went out of the haunted house.

After that, I went out to the side of the road far away, caught a taxi, and went back to Hyehwadang. When we arrived at Hyehwadang, the morning sun was already rising.

We opened the door of the shrine, entered, and called Da-jeong.

“Dajeong, it’s all over.”

“Okay, it’s over…? What?”

I saw Da-jeong curled up covered in a blanket. The dark circles around Da-jeong’s eyes had become even darker, as if she had not been able to sleep all night inside the shrine. I told Da-jeong what happened early in the morning.

“The mirror ghost that tried to harm your brother. I came after exorcising it.”

“How on earth did you do the exorcism?”

“I broke the mirror that the ghost was in. I threw a doll at the ghost that came out. After that, I cut off the doll’s neck and it was over.”

I showed Da-jeong the Jewoong she brought from the haunted house. Jeung’s separated head and body were severely swollen. If the head had not been cut off right away, the spirit would have exploded and the ghost would have come out again.

“This is actually a straw doll used during exorcism.”

“I see… Did you curse the ghost with a straw doll?”

“It’s not a curse, but it can be said to be a trustworthy ordinance.”

Dajeong nodded his head. Since they were also members of the mystery site, they showed me a straw doll with its head cut off, which made them feel at ease.

“So you can rest assured now.”

Da-jeong’s face was in tears as her brother was taken to the hospital and she was tormented by a ghost.

Dajeong finally looked relieved.

Tears flowed down her cheeks.

“Ugh… Thank you so much. If it weren’t for you guys, both my brother and I would have died.”

Dajeong got up from the floor and bowed her head towards us.

It was a greeting filled with sincere gratitude.

“Ho, do you guys need money or something?”

“No? I don’t receive or receive anything.”

“Wow… But please give me your phone number. I want to repay you.”

We didn’t particularly ask for compensation from the people we rescued. Sarah and I were both satisfied with the task of exorcising evil things. Of course, that didn’t mean I refused to give it to him.

“Repayment?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. I’ll give you my number.”

We gave Da-jeong our cell phone number. I don’t know how he was going to repay me, but since he was a high school student, it didn’t seem like it would be anything special. Da-jeong said thank you, bowed her head, and left Hyehwadang.

Dajeong’s reward came right back that day.

It was around lunchtime on Sunday.

While we were eating at Hyehwadang, our cell phones rang at the same time.

━━Wow!

“What is it?”

“Is it sweet?”

“I think so.”

Sarah and I turned on our phones.

A gift from Da-jeong arrived on our phones via KakaoTalk.

It was a department store gift certificate. Dajeong sent us each a 300,000 won gift certificate via KakaoTalk. There was a message written on KakaoTalk asking people to accept it as it was a small gift.

[This is a gift certificate given to me by my mother who works at a department store. It’s a small gift, but please accept it. If you need more gift certificates, I can send you more. There are a lot of them in our house.]

Two gift certificates worth 300,000 won were sent. I had no idea that a high school student would send this much money as a gift. Dajeong’s family seemed like a pretty well-to-do family. Sarah and I got unexpected pocket money.

“Sera. Da-jeong sent me a gift certificate? It’s worth 300,000 won.”

“I got it too. Let’s go shopping today. The weather is getting warmer, so I want to buy some new clothes.”

“Shopping…?”

“Okay, shopping. Let’s buy clothes quickly and come back.”

Shopping.

The moment I heard those words, I got a little nervous. Women’s shopping had a very different meaning from men’s. Unlike men who only buy what to buy, women shopped for a long time as if they were at a museum. The same was true for Sarah.

“You’re only coming back after buying real clothes, right? You’re not planning on looking back and staying at the department store until evening, right?”

“It’s true. Don’t you believe me?”

“The last time I went to the department store with you, we walked around all day…”

“It was because it was sale time back then. Today is different.”

For now, I decided to trust Sarah.

After lunch, Sarah and I left for the department store.

Mirae Department Store.

It was a department store in Seungcheon-gu. Here I was able to use the gift certificate I received from Dajeong. When we arrived at Mirae Department Store, we exchanged the mobile exchange voucher we received via KakaoTalk for a real gift certificate.

“Let’s go over there.”

“Isn’t that a place that sells clothes?”

“Let’s just go. I suddenly want to buy cosmetics.”

As expected, Sarah didn’t just buy clothes and go home. As soon as she arrived at the department store, she took out her card and walked around the place as if it were her own home. She started at the cosmetics section, went through shoe stores, and even clothing stores.

“Jinwoo. Isn’t that blouse okay?”

“Well.”

Of course, Sarah would look pretty no matter what she wore. But I didn’t necessarily go out of my way to pick out her clothes. To begin with, I had a really bad sense of choosing clothes, so it was a bit difficult for me to confidently recommend her clothes to Sarah.

Anyway, Sarah chose her clothes on her own without me telling her. I walked around with Sarah and bought her clothes that I would wear for her. Sarah put not only her clothes but also her favorite products into her shopping bag.

“You can’t buy all that with 300,000 won, right?”

“Of course I have to spend my own money. Did you really think my shopping would end with 300,000 won? Absolutely not.”

“It wasn’t.”

“Jinwoo. I’ll buy you clothes too. If you need more money, tell me.”

“It’s okay.”

As expected from a rich family, she had no hesitation in spending money.

It was after shopping was over.

Sera had several shopping bags in her hands. All items that could be delivered were items left over after delivery.

“Huh… I bought everything.”

Sera held up shopping bags and looked relieved.

As we were leaving the department store, we passed by the accessories store near the entrance.

It was then. A butterfly-shaped hairpin in the store caught my eye. It was a butterfly hairpin with a pretty blue color. I thought Sarah would look pretty if she wore that hairpin. I secretly tried to tell Sarah what she said.

“Isn’t that hairpin pretty?”

“What is it?”

“It’s shaped like a butterfly. That one.”

“Hmm.”

I could confidently recommend hairpins.

However, Sarah’s reaction was calm.

There was no particular change in expression.

“Not so good? I think it suits you.”

“No… It’s pretty, but it’s too flashy. There are a lot of hairpins in my house anyway.”

She made a recommendation, but she didn’t seem to be particularly interested in Sarah. We just passed the store and went out of the department store. After that, we went back to Hyehwadang and had dinner. Suddenly, Sarah opened her mouth with a casual expression.

“Jinwoo. I’m going to take a short walk.”

“Shall we go together?”

“No. I’m just going to digest it by myself.”

In the evening, Sarah left Hyehwadang again. She seemed like she was going for a walk.

I let Sarah go without much thought.

8 O’clock that evening.

Shop on the 1st floor of Mirae Department Store.

━━Tadadadadak!

Sera ran back to the department store. She told Jinwoo that she was going for a walk, but she actually wasn’t. She had gone out to buy something again at the department store.

“…Hello.”

“Uh, welcome, sir.”

It was late, but the accessory store on the first floor was still open. The store owner welcomed Sarah with a puzzled expression. This was because Sarah was running so quickly that she was out of breath.

“Hey, customer. Isn’t this the person who came with a male student during the day?”

“That’s right. I came to buy a hairpin.”

After Sarah calmed down, she looked at her stall. On the stand was still the blue butterfly hairpin she had seen during the day. Sarah pointed to her butterfly hairpin with her finger and she said to the store owner:

“Please give me this.”

“Huh…? Wasn’t this item too fancy to buy?”

“I just gave it a try. If a boy just buys her because he picks her out, she seems like an easy girl.”

“Gasp.”

The store owner was quick to notice.

She nodded as if she understood what he meant and wrapped her butterfly hairpin.

“Here we are, sir.”

“Give me all the similar products. I’ll buy all kinds of butterfly hairpins in this store.”

“Wow.”

The store owner took out all types of butterfly hairpins in her store.

Sarah swiped her card and paid for the lump sum. Her shopping bag was filled with butterfly hairpins. Sarah took out the blue butterfly hairpin that Jinwoo had chosen and looked at it.

“hehehe, hehehe…”

Laughter naturally flowed from Sarah’s mouth. She pretended to be cool when Jinwoo was next to her, but she didn’t need to do that anymore. In fact, she wasn’t cool at all with Sarah’s inner thoughts. When she was at Hyehwadang, she was anxious that the butterfly hairpin had already been sold.

‘I said this suits you, right?’

Sera later secretly planned to wear the butterfly hairpin that Jinwoo had chosen for her. Jin-Woo could have said these words to himself, who appeared arrogantly wearing a hairpin, pretending to be indifferent.

━━Wow, Seraya. You look prettier when you wear a hairpin.

━━hehehe.

━━I think I’m falling for you.

The moment she imagined the passionate reaction, Sarah’s cheeks turned red.

It became a shameful expression that I couldn’t show to Jinwoo.

“hehehe…”

Sarah walked out of the department store with her face flushed and her smile flowing.

A department store employee greeted her from behind with a nervous expression.

“Hello, customer.”

“Yes.”

The cool breeze outside cooled Sarah’s cheeks.

Sarah thought as she held her shopping bags.

I’m afraid to confess to someone I like.

But if she is afraid of confessing, shouldn’t she just make the other person confess to her?

I fell in love with Sarah so much that once a confession came out of my childhood friend’s mouth, it was all over.
