Subdued Soul Chronicle

Chapter 140: Ghost City (4)

The one who opened the door was a warrior guarding the city.

What is he doing here?

The warrior looked at Seol Young and Zaha with doubtful eyes.

Then I will bring the drink you ordered to this room.

Do not be late.

The two pretended that one was ordering, and the other was taking the order.

The warrior turned around without saying anything, as if his doubts had vanished, but then.

Suddenly, his head swelled up as if it had been blown.

A huge mouth appeared on the back of its head, and it rushed to attack them.

!

Seol Young ended up using his Righteous Weapon.

Instantly, pitch-black darkness covered the place, and

Gulp.

There was a sound like that, and the warrior disappeared without a trace inside Onis mouth.

And it was done. As if to prove it was done, black smoke rose and seeped into Seol Youngs card.

Seol Young frowned.

What was that?

I dont know either.

Zaha said as he put his sword back in its sheath.

Wasnt that a warrior? Or are all the warriors here like that?

Anyway, I guess we shouldnt be too careless about anything in here.

He felt strange about how his head swelled up. He never wanted to witness it again, so Seol Young looked at Oni, who was sitting on the ground, and remembered.

Wait. He must have had some money?

Seol Young grabbed the baby dragon and said,

Senior, throw up what you just swallowed.

The thought of not wanting to see such a thing again vanished at the thought of money, but Oni didnt seem to care and laid down on the ground. Then it swayed its short legs.

Seol Young asked it,

Why are you pretending not to know it? Senior!

The baby dragon looked the other way, and there was Zaha at the corner.

Senior, did the High Governor tell you to act like this?

What would I have told him? Do not put the blame on me.

Zaha approached and pulled the mouth of the baby to the side.

Look, Seol Young-rang. This one didnt hide the warrior, but it swallowed him. It cannot take him out, so just give up.

.

Seol Young looked at Oni, who was rolling on the ground.

Senior is useful, but Id rather use my own weapon if possible.

With that thought in mind, he flipped the card around his neck.

Each kill made the card turn black. But it was still a long way from becoming completely black. Zaha also looked at his own card.

If we kill them one by one, I have no idea how long it will take for our rank to go up.

Just lure them all together and kill all of them at once. The Devil Lair Lord will know, but

Its better to be quick than step on something bad.

They quickly arrived at a decision, and the two looked at the room number.

Black Lotus, 13th room.

It was the 13th room on the right side of the Black Lotus Area.

Fine.

Seol Young took Oni, who was on the ground, and put it back into the ring.

I will gather as many preys as possible. Both of us have to be around level 6 to step into the next realm.

Do not worry about it. Deliver the alcohol properly, and do not drink in between.

What kind of guy who delivers would do that? Delivering so casually or drinking?

Seol Young said.

There were things they had to be careful of in the Ghost City. They should never eat the food here. Eating the food here would make them part of this world. If they did something wrong, they couldnt go back to the real world.

After checking a few more things, Seol Young left first. When he returned, Su Ryun was snooping around.

Seeing Seol Young arrive, she sighed.

Why are you so late? Do you know what will happen?

I got a little lost.

Be careful. It isnt good for a worker to vanish like that here without knowing anything. You are different from us. Work properly.

Right, they were ghosts, and Seol Young was alive. So there was discrimination.

Now, take this.

Just then, another worker gave Seol Young a rice ball.

Ah

Seol Young pretended to drop it by mistake and picked it up. While doing so, he wrote the Chinese character Seek on the ground, and Su Ryuns face changed.

The bell rang, and the errand boy called out,

Newbie!

Yes.

Seol Young gave her a glance and walked away.

On the wooden plaque, an order for a drink to room number 13 was written. That was where they would hunt.

Fast.

In addition to all the special skills, it seems like he had already gathered the prey.

Seol Young found the alcohol that was requested and put it on the tray.

I will go deliver this and come back.

He told the owner and left right away. The hall was filled with loud sounds.

I have brought your drinks.

Seol Young opened the door.

The room was so packed that there was no space to step on, and it was bizarre how all kinds of beings were there.

I have this bad drinking habit

Zaha was currently acting sloppily, and even his clothes were disheveled. He was too preoccupied with entertainment, not knowing he was prey. His entire body was focused on acting.

Have a drink. Isnt this a welcome party?

The beings who were drinking together with Zaha suddenly became quiet when Seol Young appeared.

Everyone looked at Seol Young without hiding their feelings. All of them wanted to bite into this appetizing dish.

Look at them dreaming.

Seol Young acted like he didnt know anything. He closed the door, pressed the lock, and then went inside with the jar of alcohol.

Everyone was looking at him.

Here it is.

Seol Young put the jar down and glanced at Zaha, who nodded and brought his sword to his hand.

And the next moment, a golden light shone.

All the heads of the beings around Zaha were cut off at once, and at the same time, the things around Seol Young also collapsed.

They didnt notice anything until Seol Young took a sword from one of them and cut them all down. His movements were too fast for them to realize it.

As expected, looting is possible.

Seol Young thought so as he swung his sword. It was thanks to his skills and speed, even though his spiritual qi was weak.

And so, the hunt began on both sides.

Euk!

Kuak!

All the ghosts and demonic beings were trapped inside and taken down without a single one of them being able to escape from that place. Not even a scream came out, and they collapsed in piles.

It wasnt long before Seol Youngs sword broke, so he picked up another one and went back to killing.

If only I had Blue Rainbow

Seol Young threw that thought aside and focused on hunting. Black smoke was sucked into his card each time a monster fell. The card was slowly becoming dark.

Suddenly, he had a thought,

Is this what loneliness is?

The world of the weak. A system in which ones level increases as one kills their opponents.

The market itself was like that.

Pat!

In no time, the level 9 on the card turned to 8.

Zaha asked from across the room.

Seol Young-rang, are you in level 6 yet?

Im still in level 7.

Still?

Zaha clicked his tongue and threw the dying ghosts to the side. However, it wasnt enough to raise his level.

In the end, the hunt ended with Seol Young unable to rise to level 6.

It is fine because there is still one left.

They looked outside.

It should come soon.

Since it was such a fuss, even the Devil Lair Lord must have known about it.

Seol Young shook the sword so the blood on it would come off.

And Zaha saw that.

Can you give that to me?

No.

Seol Young threw the sword.

I need to find the right weapon before he comes.

Bodies were piled on the floor as if a war had happened, and Seol Young went through them to find a weapon that he could use.

A proper weapon.

Zaha also searched the bodies.

Seol Young was surprised to see him searching as well.

Seol Young asked with wide eyes,

What is this? You said you dont want to touch corpses?

I can only get out of here safely when you can get out here safely. Ah, I found it. This is perfect for you.

What is it?

He looked at it with half interest. Zaha held something.

It was a stick.

And Seol Youngs face became cold.

What kind of madman would use that as a weapon?

Right. If you use this as a weapon, you will be considered a crazy guy.

He put the stick into Seol Youngs hand, and.

Crack.

It broke.

Fine. I will find another one if you dont like it.

Without changing his expression, Zaha went back to searching the corpses.

Seol Young was shocked.

Arent you being too much? I thought you were really trying to look for something, and there you go

Ah, I really found it.

Zaha said again.

Seol Young didnt turn to him.

This is for real! It is no joke, Seol Young-rang. If it is a lie, I will not blame you even if I die.

At those words, he turned around, and Zaha was removing a corpses belt.

He is tricking me

Seol Young was shocked.

Take this!

Zaha threw it.

He decided to ignore it and just stared at it coldly. But did that shabby belt just suddenly turn into a silver snake and fly?

It flew towards Seol Young.

!

Only then did he realize that the belt was a soft sword.

It was a soft sword that was made of iron and was known to be flexible. Because it bends freely, it could also be used as a belt.

Insane

Seol Young hurriedly reached out his hand before the soft sword hit him.

Because of his quick movement, he was able to grab the handle of the sword, and his eyes went wide.

As he was watching him, Zaha said,

Seol Young-rang seems surprised. I told you it wasnt a joke.

Yes. It was an attempt to murder me

What now? Murder? I did it for you. I told you to be careful at all times.

No. That

He was about to talk back, but Zaha stopped him.

Shh. Here it comes.

A lie.

He wanted to say that, but the atmosphere felt so dark outside.

The Gu revived as the Devil Lair Lord was aiming for Seol Young.

Bang!

The locked door opened up, and he could feel the evil energy. Seol Young trembled without even realizing it.

I will kill you!

He swung the sword.
