6. The Jangsan Tiger is Dismissed.
“Where is she?! ”
No matter how much I shouted, nothing answered in the haunted house.
My girlfriend, who was scared, had me follow her, but she disappeared at some point.
She said on message she's hiding somewhere in the haunted house...
I wanted to call, but according to the haunted house safety rules, calling is not allowed, so I had no choice but to contact via messages.
In the eerie atmosphere, relying on the flashlight from the received message, I took step after step forward.
“Answer if you hear me!”
“Here......”
A voice like an echo came from somewhere.
Her voice.
Since even running would violate the rules, I approached the direction the voice was coming from at a quick pace.
“Here...... Come this way.”
The voice came from a certain closed room.
When I stood in front of the door, I hesitated.
She is behind this door. Still, I didn't want to open the door.
[14th rule. Do not open doors inside the haunted house. This rule is absolute. Even if you hear any sound from inside, do not open.]
Cold sweat ran down my back.
“I’m here now, so it’s okay. So come out, let’s go quickly.”
I tried to make her open the door herself.
“I’m too scared, I can’t move. Oppa, take me out a bit......”
She was probably inside too, so if I open the door, nothing bad would happen...
Thinking that, I reached for the door, but felt a strange unease.
My girlfriend is two years older than me.
But...... calling 'oppa'?
Last time when I asked to call me oppa, she completely ignored it...?
“Baby. When is your birthday...?”
“When are you asking that now?!”
“First, tell me. If you tell me, I’ll come in.”
“Okay. My birthday is....... ■■■■■■.”
“What? When is your birthday?”
“I told you. I told you, so come in quickly! I’m really scared right now!”
“Ah, okay. I’ll come in!”
If I ask more, her favor towards me will drop a lot.
In the worst case, if we break up...!
Without thinking more, I opened the door.
And what was revealed was......
“Hi hi hi hi hi!!!!!”
.
.
.
Thud.
As soon as the muscular man opened the door, he collapsed.
He faced the Japgwi waiting in front of the door.
“But..... why did I use my ability to lure people?”
It was fun though.
Probably because the instinct from when I lived in Jangsan still remained.
The ghost threw thumbs up with both hands.
It meant she was satisfied too.
Here is the Haunted House interior. A person has fainted. What should I do?
Sent a radio, a few seconds later radio came back.
[A person fainted... Is it a joke?]
[No.]
Quiet for a few more seconds.
[Sorry, but from today, you are dismissed.]
[Eh... ?]
Damn, this is my first day at work?
[Why?]
[Rule 17 for employees: When a person faints inside the haunted house, report after coming out from inside first. Since you violated this, sorry, but you have no chance. Our security team will come soon.]
No more radio after that.
What does “no chance” mean? No chance for reinstatement?
But I soon understood the meaning.
Because from the back of the haunted house, agwi, not ordinary Japgwi, were crawling out.
Due to intense obsession left behind in life, the soul can't cut off from the world and turns into a ghost.
According to that, agwi have much stronger obsession than ordinary Japgwi.
Because they are poor souls who starved to death.
In normal cases, just clinging to humans to induce appetite and make diet fail, but in such a place with strong yin energy...
Krrrluk...!
Agwi in terrifying human form drooled thickly on the ground and approached the fainted person.
If I don't stop them, this man will turn into a corpse drained of all yang energy in his body.
Agwi don't bite flesh, but tear off yang energy attached to flesh.
The problem is...... these guys are troublesome for me too.....
“What to do.”
My eyes changed to vertical pupils.
The Japgwi who met my eyes hurriedly ran away, but the agwi didn't even look.
That's why I hate agwi...!
I grabbed the head of one agwi that approached closest to the man.
A terrifying appearance like a skull filled with the water of the River Styx.
Crack, crunch!
The agwi's head made a sound like chewing bones attached to samgyeopsal and shattered.
Still, other agwi didn't think of running.
Some even drooled while looking at me.
“Coming... (crack!) Coming... (crack!) When are those security team guys coming? (crunch!)”
.
.
“Security team, listen. It says a person has fainted inside the haunted house.
One employee will be sacrificed, but it's unavoidable. We will clean up the things inside in our own way!”
The haunted house was already under control.
The rest is for our security team to handle.
“Charge!”
Simultaneously with the signal from the security team leader, the security members scattered to various places in the haunted house.
“Not here!”
“Not here!”
“Not here either!”
“Here too!”
“Not here!”
Answers came from the security officers who entered each room.
“Something is here!”
Other security officers, hearing the voice, went to the room where the answer came from.
“Wait!”
However, only the team leader felt something wrong and stopped the security officers.
“How many members does our team have?”
“Including me, 6 people!”
“Our team is all here...... but why is the answer coming from over there...?”
“.... ....”
“Prepare.”
They walked stealthily following the team leader to the room where the answer came from.
“Security team, you sure came fast.”
The time from the end of the radio to their arrival was about 5 minutes.
Sufficient time.
It was enough time for me to burst all the agwi's heads.
I looked at their appearance.
They looked like ordinary security team, but yang energy was coming out from various equipment.
Clearly, rookie exorcists.
Seeing 6 people coming at an agwi, it doesn't seem like they have high fighting skills. But no reason to kill them here.....
“Are you an employee?”
The muscular man who seemed to be the team leader asked.
“Yes, employee. No, since I was dismissed, now I'm not an employee?”
“How did you survive? And where are those things?”
“What? How did I survive...?”
“Don’t joke. We are the security team.”
[(Don’t joke. We are the security team.) Security team? No matter how you look, they are rookie exorcists who only believe in amulets.]
Thud.
“.......What did I hear?”
The team leader, hearing my perfect voice mimicry, sat down on the spot.
“Suppression!”
“It's a person, but really suppress?”
“He's not a person! Suppress now!”
The team leader seemed to be the one with the highest skill among them.
The others were fooled by my cute appearance that triggers human protection instinct, but he seemed to be gauging how skilled I am.
Still, being bad at skill in front of me was the same.
Thud, thud, gasp!
“Okay. I sent one, will more come in? Or should I try talking?”
These guys' hand-to-hand combat level was really poor.
Originally, Japgwi would melt upon touching amulet, so maybe no need for hand-to-hand, but to catch a hwansu like me with a body, hand-to-hand was essential.
No, even if I have hand-to-hand, it won't work? Well, to fight a tiger, you need AK-47 level.
The next guy tried to pounce on me while looking at me.
But the team leader stopped him with his arm.
“Conversation... was it? Let's listen.”
Showing that he is not just calling himself team leader, he calmly looked at me and said.
“Talk to the person who hired you, not me. Where, as an exorcist with no skill. If I met you in the old days, you would have been in my stomach.”
“Gum......!”
.
.
It was one person doing all of them.
They said the male voice was also done by that person.
“Human?”
“Not human....”
“Real”
“This wasn't a joke?????”
