The Tiger's Voice Fame Explodes
The security team leader knocked on the door, trembling not just a little but completely shaking.
From inside, a voice came out like a woman's with a twisted, unnatural pitch, as if possessed.
"Manager? Is anyone there?"
"Come in! I'm right here! What do you want?!"
The voice was high and low in a weird way.
"One staff member is looking for the manager. May I come in?"
"Come in! Would I harm you? Haha! Come in quickly."
The manager seemed completely out of his mind.
Hiring this kind of guy... sigh, not living life.
The door opened with a loud, sharp sound from the oiled hinges.
The manager's appearance was not only far from the voice's owner but also perfectly suited for a 'beauty' by human standards.
"The staff member who said they wanted to see this body.......
...... Hello. Nice to meet you. It must have been hard coming all this way. Would you like a cup of tea?"
The manager, upon seeing me, offered me tea in a clear, crisp voice...?
"Manager?"
"Security team leader, step outside for a moment."
"Yes."
The security leader closed the door with an incredulous expression.
"According to the report, you cleaned up the things in the haunted house... Really outstanding skill."
The manager smiled brightly and spoke to me in a friendly tone.
It was awkward.
Too awkward.
The entire vibe from the person's speech and smile felt overwhelming.
On my first day in this human body, I had made such an expression.
Noona, what's your name? I'm Sanbeom.
I felt self-loathing rising up my spine.
A thousand years old, and I have to call her noona! The mountain lord who used to make people tremble with fear is gone! Damn it! Shib a.
Noona? Ah, right, I'm noona. Yeah, my name is 'Kim Ara'.
I got caught! This is exactly what the Six Scorpions do!
By enduring the self-loathing, it was worth calling her noona.
From the reaction earlier, it was clear.
That guy was something pretending to be human.
It had the ability to perfectly deceive even exorcists with disguise.
Fox... no, if it was a fox, it would have struck first before thinking.
"Noona, what kind of sports do you like?"
"Me? I like ssireum... Why suddenly that?"
It was over.
I had turned the perfect general who had no place to retreat into.
In the world, there are all kinds of weirdos and powerful beings, but among them, there is a peculiar tribe that loves ssireum.
Dokkaebi.
Not the middle-aged man with a sword stuck in his chest or the Dokkaebi who appears as the scenario progressor in a collapsed world, but the real Dokkaebi.
"Hey."
"........."
"Recently, the world has gotten better. Dokkaebi are standing tall in front of the mountain lord."
The position between Dokkaebi and mountain lord is roughly like tenant and landlord.
The Dokkaebi hide in the mountains, and the mountain lord is the owner of the mountain, so he can always drive the Dokkaebi out of the mountain when he wants.
So, the Dokkaebi always have to bow when they see the mountain lord...
"You noticed it well. But what can I do? This isn't your mountain, and it's my Dokkaebi Ground."
The manager now showed an expression matching the voice from earlier, glaring at me.
In other words, he had lost his courage.
"Want to fight now?"
"Even if it's okay. I don't have confidence here."
The Dokkaebi Ground is a place where Dokkaebi have stayed for a long time and accumulated energy.
Even I would have a hard time fighting a Dokkaebi here.
"Why fight? Let's do it by the rules."
"Rules?"
"Yeah, rules."
I executed the phone app and pressed number 444-666-4646.
"Yes, this is the Netherworld Bureau..."
"What are you doing right now.........?"
"My nest is being illegally occupied by a Dokkaebi. Where is my nest? It's Lotte World..."
When I got to that point, the manager snatched my smartphone and hung up the call.
It seemed he had figured out the situation.
As the laws of the afterlife were modernized, now the mountain lord could use other places as nests instead of mountains.
Since there are no special procedures to set a nest, as long as it doesn't overlap with other mountain lords, he can set it as a nest anytime.
And the mountain lord and Dokkaebi are landlord and tenant.
If I set this place as my nest, I gain the right to evict the Dokkaebi who came first.
It's an unreasonable right, but that's something the high-ups in the afterlife should handle, and I just need to enjoy the right as it is.
"Hey, what do you want? If you came to find me, there must be something you want, right?"
"Severance pay. Give it to me."
"After half a day of work, what severance pay..."
"You here are the manager, right? Should I give you a call? There doesn't seem to be any other mountain lord nearby."
"Got it. I'll give it. I'll give it, so solve one thing for me."
"What?"
I asked with a discontented face.
"That... I gathered yin energy to make the haunted house creepy, but somehow it started attracting more yin energy... The Japgwi are getting attached. Please solve that somehow."
The situation where yin energy accumulates and attracts more yin energy. It happens in haunted houses.
In such cases, there is a very effective solution passed down since ancient times.
"Burn them."
"Eh...?"
"Have you seen any Japgwi that died burning in fire?"
".......No."
"Fire is the best tool for exorcism. Whether you burn them while chanting or smash them and incinerate all the waste, I recommend burning them with fire."
"Not just burning them! How much money did I spend to make the haunted house? Not that, how to handle the energy..."
Come on, if it's burning, I'll burn it, but so many words.
"Other methods... Building a elementary school on top and tearing it down... Ah, right!"
"Did something come to mind?"
The manager looked at me with an expression expecting some brilliant idea from me.
"Do you know about collaboration?"
"Yes, I know."
"In humans, if those with especially strong yin energy gather, it actually produces strong yang energy. We can use that."
Those with strong yin energy in humans are not only other humans but also the Japgwi avoid them. When they gather for a specific purpose, they have effects beyond good.
"I completely understand!"
"Your head is good. Then, put in the money."
"Understood!"
.
.
.
I didn't think the haunted house part-time job I thought was easy money would be fired in just one day.
5,000,000 won has been deposited into Sanbeom's account.
First, I got the money, but I need to find another place.
"I, the tiger, am not the kind that gives you food and saves you when we meet, and as the mountain lord, I have to take money...!"
Ding.
Huh? What?
25,000,000 won has been deposited into Sanbeom's account.
What? Really what?
Am I seeing things?
"One, ten, hundred, thousand... two thousand five hundred...?"
Driiiing!
I calmed my trembling heart and answered the phone that came with the notification.
Sanbeom-nim! We hit the jackpot! Our anime is the top this quarter! Crazy! And did you receive the money transfer?
"Yeah, I did. How much was it again? It was definitely 2,500..."
Compared to total sales, it's insignificant! This is all thanks to Sanbeom-nim!
"Me...?"
Yes! From episode 1 to 11, it was normal, but after the final episode ending credits revealed that the voice actor was Sanbeom-nim, it spread like crazy on the internet as viewers realized it. And not even a famous voice actor, but it blew up like this!
"Good."
The money will keep coming in from now on. I calculated it, it seems like at least several billion will come in. A collab cafe application has already come in!
Several billion... It's an unimaginable amount compared to my monthly salary.
To think that such money would come into my hands!
"Kuhahahaha!!!!"
A sob came out from my throat on its own from joy.
Hee, is there something bothering you...?
"No, no. I'm just too happy. From tomorrow, I have to quit the part-time job right away! Then call me when you send the money again."
I hung up after saying that.
Good, stay calm, stay calm.
With the mind of Laozi who created wuwei, letting nature flow... Money is just a value created by humans......... Amazing! Shib a!!!! Money! Money! Money! Money! I like money!!!!!!!
I couldn't stay calm, and in a state of extreme excitement, I roamed the house shouting like crazy, eventually ran out of strength and collapsed on the mattress.
Even lying on the mattress, my heart was glowing madly, and I felt like at least one of my limbs shouldn't tremble.
Ding!
Another notification came. What kind of news this time?
