Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return

Episode 189

Dan So-mi procrastinated and opened her eyes.

For some reason, I felt cold, and when I exhaled the steam, pure white steam came out.

I slowly got up from the bed and looked out the window.

When I looked at the dark night sky, I couldn’t see a single moonlight.

I lowered my head and looked around, and there was new white snow piled up.

So much so that the entire yard was filled with snow.

“Pee…”

It was cold, but I couldn’t sleep like this, so I had to go pee. This is because I could see what kind of nagging I would get if I peed on the blanket.

I got up from my seat as if kicking off the blanket and quickly got dressed. I rubbed my sleepy eyes, regretting that I should have brought the bedside table.

Perhaps because I was already shrinking from the cold, my short strides took me to a back yard that seemed even further away.

As I opened the door and went out, a cold wind blew through me, causing me to shiver without realizing it. In the cold wind that made even a good night’s sleep run away, I ran with all my might, hoping to get there as quickly as possible.

It was at that time that I heard a strange sound.

The sound coming from beyond the fence was quite sad. Dansomi held her hand tightly as she heard the sound that made even the listener’s heart sink.

“what?”

I tilted my head, opened the front door, and went outside. However, it was filled with pure white snow, with not a single footprint left, let alone an animal.

The moment I groaned and was about to go back again, I heard a sad sound from behind me again. Dansomi followed the sound without even realizing it.

I don’t know if it was a ghost or an animal, but I was disturbed by that sad, sad cry. Finally, after going for a while, I saw something.

My eyes widened in surprise when I saw it.

It was definitely the cat I saw last time, a small creature the size of my palm. The sight of him climbing up a high tree and bursting into tears was extremely sad.

I looked at that figure blankly and took a step without realizing it.

The startled cat quickly looked at Dan Somi.

Kya—!

The cat showed its teeth and threatened.

It looked so surprised that the fur on its tail stood up.

Soon, he quickly jumped from tree to tree and disappeared from Dansomi’s sight.

“oh! wait!”

Dansomi ran after him without realizing it.

In fact, I couldn’t even see where it went. It was partly because the fog had become too thick, but it wasn’t easy to chase after a small cat moving around so nimbly.

I fell while running and got up again to find that image.

The small cat stared at Dansomi, who had fallen down, then stood up again and then disappeared again as if hiding.

Sweet Somi’s cheeks puffed out as she felt like she was taking medicine.

Normally, she would have given up the moment she fell and turned back when she felt she was getting further away from home, but now Dansomi was determined to catch the cat without fail.

Meow –

A small cry was heard.

When I looked to the right, I saw Dansomi looking down from a tree.

Are you not chasing me anymore?

Dan Somi smiled at the gaze that seemed to ask that question.

“Wait there!”

I ran furiously again.

The moment it saw the cat chasing it, it also ran. It was so fast that it disappeared in an instant before my eyes, but Dansomi moved in the right direction as if she could see movement.

And at some point, a large vacant lot appeared.

“Wow…”

This was a place she often came too.

Because this is where Namgung So-hye trains with Dan Woo-hyeon. However, the place I was seeing now had a very different feel, so I fell into the illusion that it was a completely different place.

Perhaps because the sight was like seeing another world, Dansomi was unable to move for a while and just looked around blankly.

Then something caught my eye.

A cat was lying on the ground.

Compared to what I saw in front of the house, it seemed a little bigger. Although they looked similar, they felt different, so I tilted my head and approached them.

Dansomi approached stealthily.

Eventually, the moment I walked up to him and touched his body, I realized.

“He’s dead…”

My body was already cold. Because the weather was so cold, decomposition had not started, but it seemed like he had been dead for a long time. But the strange thing is that there are edible things lying around.

The moment when Dansomi tilts her head in puzzlement.

Meow-!

A small cry was heard.

Dan So-mi, surprised, turned her head. The small cat that had disappeared a little while ago was seen sneakily approaching Dansomi, looking at her eyes.

There was something in its mouth, a small minnow I didn’t know where it came from.

The little cat put it down in front of the dead cat’s mouth. I tried to tap it with my hand as if telling it to eat, but there was no way I could eat it as it was already dead and a corpse.

Dan So-mi shed tears at that sad sight.

The little boy didn’t even seem to know that the big cat was dead.

If not, it might be that I didn’t want to admit it.

“Are you mom?”

Meow to the question! He let out a short cry. Only then did Dansomi realize that the dead cat was the little cat’s mother.

It hurt me even more.

“Wait a minute….”

Dansomi boos! and tore the hem of her skirt. Even if it was a body that couldn’t even feel any sense, I didn’t want to leave it lying on the ground like this.

The torn skirt was laid out on the floor and the body was carefully placed on top of it.

Then he looked around for something, took a small stone in his hand, and started digging in a suitable place.

“are you okay! Somi will do something!”

With a bright smile on his face, he started digging. However, digging the frozen ground with a child’s hands was not an easy task.

Meow-! Dan Woo-hyeon

opened his eyes at the sound of a small sound .

Realizing that there was an uninvited guest in the yard, he cautiously got up from his bed and opened the window.

It snowed.

The landscape, which was like a pure white sheet of paper, stimulated his vision, but his gaze naturally went up to the sky.

“New moon….”

The moon is not visible.

It seemed as if the moon itself had disappeared, rather than simply being obscured by clouds. It is commonly called new moon (期月) or new moon (新月), and refers to the day when the moon is not visible.

On days like this, I was full of ghost energy.

There was also a story that it was because the demonic energy that had been blocked by the moonlight was released.

It was a day when yin energy flowed strongly, so it was a day where you had to be more careful about your appearance than ever before.

Dan Woo-hyeon slowly went out.

The pure white snow field was filled with the imprints of children’s feet.

I was impressed when I saw it.

Because my ear and yin energy were so strong, my senses became dull. You don’t even notice that Dansomi is going outside?

He sighed and walked without realizing it.

It moved little by little, and before I knew it, it was moving at a lightning speed. As I moved a little further, following the small footprints, a thick fog enveloped Danwoohyeon.

The fog, full of yin, could not be considered natural and gave an alien feeling. Dan Woo-hyeon immediately realized the identity of the phenomenon.

“Is it Sakwol Tomb?” A young animal that grows by eating sexual energy from the moment it is born.

That was Sakwolmyo.

The night of the new moon was the cats’ favorite day because the sound, which was richer than ever, greatly helped their growth.

Of course, there were also spirit creatures targeting Sakwolmyo.

At that time, a rustling sound was heard nearby.

Dan Woo-hyeon heightened his five senses to the extreme.

Something was circling around Dan Woo-hyeon quickly, like a wild animal stalking its prey, without revealing itself. Dan Woo-hyeon stopped walking and turned his gaze to focus on one place.

Sparkling golden eyes were visible through the bushes.

An ordinary person would not have been able to find it because of the fog.

The hidden thing must have thought that Dan Woo-hyeon’s stopping was an opportunity, so it jumped out from the bushes and rushed towards me with its huge maw wide open.

Sigh-!

Dan Woo-hyeon moved two steps to the left with a light movement.

The huge claws, which seemed like they could never be avoided, tore through the air, and the being that had lost its goal nimbly landed on the ground and ate it.

Crying-

Soon, a crying sound was heard.

That low crying sound gave goosebumps all over my body.

If it weren’t for Dan Woohyun, I wouldn’t have been able to stand still.

“Is it a white tiger?”

Dan Woohyun looked at Baekho with a rather interesting expression.

Although it does not reach the level of the commonly called Four Directions God, encountering a white tiger was quite surprising.

There weren’t many of them, and it wasn’t common to see a white tiger as big and strong as the one in front of you right now.

Although its power has not yet reached that of the divine beasts of legend, it seemed to be at the top of the list of spiritual creatures.

“Was this the territory?”

Crying –

Dan Woohyun stroked his chin and nodded.

There were many places near Sega where the energy was felt rather strongly, and I now realized that it was because it was none other than White Tiger’s territory.

I thought it would be really cool to catch it, feed it to Somi, and hang the skin in her room.

But soon he burst into laughter.

“Get out of the way.”

Dansomi’s safety was the most important priority now. Looking at the white tiger’s mouth, there was no trace of blood, so it does not seem to have eaten or harmed anyone.

That was a good thing, but now it is the night of September.

A night full of darkness was never a good environment for a child, so it was necessary to find Somi as quickly as possible.

That’s why his voice was colder than ever.

If you don’t get out of the way, you will die.

It was that kind of warning.

however.

Kwaaawang-!

A huge roar that shook the earth spread out frighteningly. The small insects held their breath at the sound, and the sleeping birds took off and fled.

Dan Woo-hyeon could also feel the tingling power.

“It’s pretty good.”

However, the cold voice still remained. There wasn’t even the slightest hint of agitation.

Although it was a long time ago, I didn’t know if it was because I had experience fighting for several days and nights against a stronger spirit than this.

“Say it again. “Get out of the way.” Baekho blocked Dan Woo-hyeon’s path

.

The white tiger did not even move like a pillar, as if it had no intention of watching the humans who entered its territory, or as if it was trying to protect something.

In the end, Dan Woo-hyeon’s hand stretched out. phut-!
