The Nature of Possession - The Nature of Possession chapter 135
135 – EP.7 Reunion-1
***
The first thing to come back is the sense of smell.
My nose pricked at the acrid smell.
then hearing.
The sound of metal ringing from afar comes.
and time.
When I open my closed eyes, something familiar floats in front of me.
[Number of dimension shifts: 7]
okay. I lay down on the bed to sleep for a while, but he died just like that.
Glad no one killed me.
Emma… I hope it took a long time to decipher.
And even if I know the contents of the article, I hope I will continue to live.
I thought natural death might be the condition to end this f*cking dimension shift.
Because that damn pigeon b*tch wants me to ‘suffer and die’.
So, I thought that if she died a natural death, there would be a gap in her curse and it would end.
but the result was unsuccessful.
Even if someone dies, the natural dimensional shift continues.
All that remains is to kill yourself.
I don’t have the courage to try this yet.
– Cough Cough
Sore throat and dry cough.
Okay, let’s stop thinking about the previous dimension.
Because I can’t be more involved.
What happens next doesn’t matter.
“What is this?”
I turn my eyes and look around.
First, the house comes into view. Not a modern house made of concrete, not a mansion built with bricks, but a small house with earthen walls.
A room so small that you can reach your feet when you lie down.
raise your body
I wondered why the sunlight was coming in hard even though it was a house, and there was a big hole in one wall.
There, broken wooden boards and household items are scattered on the floor.
“War? Disaster?”
I wonder if it was broken by war or hit by a typhoon.
If you see a burning smell coming in from outside, it’s more likely to be the former.
It was a bit easier last time, right?
As soon as you move, isn’t the war too difficult?
Get up and check yourself.
The clothes are rags. There are some scratches here and there, but it doesn’t look like it was burned.
“It seems like he just can’t live.”
I don’t think I’m living a prosperous life, whether it’s the house or the clothes.
Looking at the clothes, I think I’m from the East, and looking at the agricultural tools abandoned outside, I think I was a farmer before.
Looking at the hole in the wall, open the door and go out.
“Wow….”
The situation outside is even worse.
There are houses with blown roofs and houses with collapsed walls.
And the corpses of people lying around.
– Woo-wook
Nausea comes up.
It reminds me of the work of Heukcheongyo.
A high mountain built by the dead.
Memories that I thought I would have forgotten come back to life and come to mind.
Oh, now is not the time for this.
First of all, I need to figure out where this place is and get some help.
I have no strength in my legs because I have been lying down for a long time. Step on the staggered path and look around.
It took a lot of courage and cunning to go past the corpses that were left unattended.
I clutched my nose and walked as far away from the corpse as possible.
As I was walking along the widening road, I saw a place that looked like a yard where people were gathering in the distance.
If I go there, I think I might be able to meet a living person.
By the way, when I came, the state of the corpse was strange.
If there was a war, the body would not be intact because it was pierced or cut by something, but everyone is fine without any trauma.
Instead, they are all in a dried-up mummy-like state, whether it’s because they’ve been exposed to sunlight for a long time or because they’ve been severely decomposed.
The skin is shrunken without elasticity, and the cheeks are sunken.
The pupils were cloudy, as if covered with a white film, and there was not even a hint of vitality left.
“Is this… a corpse?”
Visuals like something you’d see in a zombie movie.
Thinking so, I entered the plaza.
I look around, but there are still corpses, no living people except me.
A situation where you don’t know what to do.
I decided to throw an adventure number.
“Here! There are people!!!!”
I tried to make a loud noise, but maybe because I didn’t eat anything, it didn’t come out as loud as I thought.
I put my hand to my mouth, made it like a trumpet, and shouted again.
“Here! There are people!!!!”
I shout again.
Hear this and hope someone comes.
If it was someone who would help me, I would scream with hope.
However, despite my voice, the surroundings were still quiet.
Is there no one
Let’s call it one more time.
“here…!!”
In an instant, with a blunt impact, the body rushed forward.
I fell to the ground and something stepped on my back.
“Oops! It hurts!”
“You bastard… Reveal your identity.”
Even when I was restrained, I was relieved that someone had come.
At least he’s someone you can talk to.
“Mo, I don’t know. When I woke up, the town looked like this.”
“Don’t lie! I’m sure there are no survivors. Where did you send the ganja from? Or are you also one of the monsters?”
A young voice continues to question me as I spit out incomprehensible words.
“I don’t know!”
I struggled and protested, but the more I tried, the stronger the force that trampled on me.
Unable to move, I continued to scream and express my innocence.
“Clean your feet.”
I heard a mature woman’s voice, different from the one that had been questioning me.
And I saw the shoes worn by the protagonist of the voice in front of me.
“But Master. He’s a suspicious person.”
“Seeing that he doesn’t feel any evil energy, he must have been hiding somewhere. He’s seen a lot of bad things, so let him go.”
The woman’s voice lifted the pressure on her back.
“Get up.”
I got up at the sound of a woman’s voice.
The person who told me to release me was a middle-aged woman with a nice figure and a strong body.
“Please understand that this happened because my student was so meticulous.
“Yeah… well… but was it a war? Everyone…”
“It must have happened unintentionally and didn’t grasp the situation. Anyway, this place is messy, so please follow me. I’ll talk to you at the right place.”
Saying respectful words to me, the woman led me.
I had no reason to refuse, I nodded and followed her.
“Ah, before you go, say hello to my student. This is also a fate.”
The woman cast her gaze behind my back, and then I turned to face the person who had been restraining me until now.
Hair tied back, sharp eyes, and a slim face.
I rubbed my eyes and looked at her again.
“Hey, I suppressed him because he acted suspiciously, so don’t feel unfair.”
With a sullen face, she puffed out her cheeks as if she didn’t like me and muttered.
“…..”
Seeing that face, I couldn’t utter a word.
The woman took a hug and introduced herself.
“Namgung Soyou, the 37th disciple of Yeomryun Gong. This is my name.”
A girl with the face of Master, who had been sent to the other side of memory and forgotten for a while, looked at me indifferently.
