I’m the Only One Who Can’t See Ghosts

45 – Even if you are caught in a tiger’s den (3)

I could not shake off Baek Yurin.

Why is her strength so strong?

Even though she is a woman, she is much stronger than most men.

No, it was not just a level of strength.

This was abnormal.

It felt strange that I could compete even though I was a little stronger.

“A person, after six years, I felt the warm touch of a person.”

Baek Yurin whispered, bowing her head while holding onto my wrist. Six years, does that mean she had no contact with anyone at all for six years?

“But how does my, my voice sound?”

“Just, a pretty girl’s voice…”

“Ah, hehehehe.”

Baek Yurin chuckled with a miserable smile.

“It seems like it sounds like a scream from a demon in this world. Then, you might like my singing too. I used to sing well.”

A scream from a demon in this world?

So, her voice sounds like that to other people?

In an instant, I remembered a YouTube video I saw before.

There was a video of a boy in the United States who was being bullied because his soul looked like a demon. The boy argued that he wasn’t a demon while crying, but people tried to exorcise the demon while holding a cross and reciting the Bible.

From Noble mtl dot com

People fired a 12-gauge shotgun at the boy without any hesitation. They didn’t seem hesitant at all.

The comments also roared that the boy should be killed quickly. But in my eyes, that boy was just a foreign elementary school student.

Just like Baek Yurin in front of me now.

I think Baek Yurin is really beautiful.

But people will see something different from me.

Come to think of it, there were many strange things.

The shelter that fell into extreme fear when they saw us.

The girl living in the mansion deep in the tiger’s den.

And she herself said she was a powerful soul that could be metaphorically referred to as a demon, not a monster.

I see.

Baek Yurin was the tiger.

Damn it.

Right now, I was in the tiger’s den.

Without even realizing that my eyes were shaking, Baek Yurin grabbed hold of me and continued to murmur something.

“I’m good at dancing, and I can sing well too. And, they say I’m pretty. Hey, I can also do naughty things. I don’t really know what they are, but I’m a genius at trying hard. If you teach me, I’ll learn diligently.”

“Um, wait a minute.”

I smiled desperately in an attempt to persuade Baek Yurin.

“People say that inner beauty is more important than outward appearance. I mean, I like your outward appearance, I just don’t know your inner self well…”

“…Don’t look at my inner self. Never.”

Grrr- Baek Yurin’s grip tightened.

Crazy, if it weren’t for me, my wrist would have already been crushed.

“I’m pretty, right? You’re not touching my fur like other heavens, but you’re touching my skin. Isn’t that enough? Urgh, why does this keep dragging on?”

Baek Yurin’s expression was strange.

Although it seemed expressionless, I could sense anger.

“Just stay with me. When I say nice things.”

When you say nice things?

Showing your true colors, tiger.

“That won’t do.”

I pulled Baek Yurin into my embrace. And then, Baek Yurin whimpered and reflexively shrunk back, murmuring something like “Gyaak.” It was in that moment.

I released the wrist held by Baek Yurin.

And I immediately ran backward.

“Why do I get involved in these things every day!!!”

My hollow cry filled the hallway.

* * *

“Why do I get involved in these things every day!!!”

Yoo Hajin’s cry reverberated through the tiger’s den.

Yoo Hajin rushed in the opposite direction at full speed.

However, the servants of this house were waiting there.

“Watch out!!! Dropkick!!!”

Yoo Hajin attempted to break through them with a dropkick, but they paid no attention to their own bodies and rushed towards Yoo Hajin.

“The Master’s orders are absolute. You cannot leave here.”

“The Master’s orders are absolute. You will be devoured by the Master.”

And most of them were ability users.

That is also a very powerful psychic ability.

“Crazy, I guess it’s like a pervert or a celestial who can pass the Heaven and Earth examination because of its strong physicality?”

Although Yu Hah Jin was overwhelmed by punches, he couldn’t easily bring him down.

So Yu Hah Jin escaped to another corridor. However, when the housekeeper behind him formed a contract, that corridor collapsed in an instant.

“This is insane.”

But Baek Yoo Rin, perhaps still startled by the previous embrace, was calming her surprised heart from a distance of a hundred meters.

Yu Hah Jin quickly looked at another corridor.

That moment.

He heard the sound of air exploding.

All the furniture in the corridor shook and fell, and on the floor, long scorch marks appeared as if shells had passed by.

And Baek Yoo Rin stood in front of Yu Hah Jin.

Yu Hah Jin was speechless by Baek Yoo Rin’s ability to cover a hundred meters in less than a second.

Baek Yoo Rin muttered with a flushed face.

“Take, take responsibility.”

“What, what for?”

“You, you hugged me. That, that means you’re interested in me.”

Is that how it works?

Yu Hah Jin was momentarily bewildered and shook his head.

“No, you were trying to kidnap me.”

“W-Well, anyway. It’s not my fault now.”

Due to Baek Yoo Rin’s absurd logic progression, Yu Hah Jin immediately composed himself. How many psychics has he defeated until now? Even if it’s a tiger, he didn’t think he would fall behind in close combat like this.

“I’ll use the tiger as a hostage and escape!!!”

However, this thought of Yu Hah Jin’s was shattered in just three seconds.

Baek Yoo Rin’s hands and feet were faster and stronger than Yu Hah Jin’s common sense. Even though he had no knowledge of striking techniques, Yu Hah Jin could do nothing but be pushed back helplessly.

Yu Hah Jin had no choice but to clench his teeth while holding his guard up.

“Ugh!!!”

Baek Yoo Rin had been an idol trainee.

She had never believed in anything like a shaman before the day of her psychic awakening.

Therefore, Baek Yoo Rin didn’t know any techniques used in psychic battles. She didn’t know how to use vows, contracts, or speak spells or incantations.

However, Baek Yurin was a strong person.

Not just any strong person, but one who was revered within the heavenly line.

A strong person who was judged solely based on their spirit and physicality.

Because of this, Yu Hahjin could only continue to be left behind.

“No, what, don’t you use any special abilities?”

Even if he had to resort to desperate measures, like playing dead when joining both hands together, Baek Yurin never showed any sign of such behavior.

Because of this, Yu Hahjin could only be bewildered.

Yu Hahjin even tried touching Baek Yurin’s skin, thinking that maybe he had enhanced his body with special abilities, but Baek Yurin only blushed and murmured like this.

“Hey, that’s too much.”

“T-That’s not what it looks like!!!”

However, Baek Yurin was also feeling a bit flustered.

Because his tiger’s claw punch didn’t have any effect.

“If it was any ordinary opponent, they would’ve fainted from that one hit.”

But his real hands and feet were effective.

That’s why he was able to push through.

Baek Yurin, born with the soul of a strong tiger that could be called a foreign spirit. The evolved body that endured such a soul was already among the top in the category of superhumans.

And because this body existed in reality, Yu Hahjin couldn’t easily overpower him. But Yu Hahjin was skilled in this kind of fight.

“I’ve got the gist. I know your patterns.”

“What?”

Before he knew it, Yu Hahjin was holding onto Baek Yurin’s wrists. And he twisted those wrists backward.

“The deceptive warrior’s subjugation technique!!!”

“Ow, ow!”

After Yu Hahjin managed to bring Baek Yurin down, he couldn’t help but meet the gazes of others. It was because the servants were clearly looking at him.

“Oh, right, damn it.”

“Master, I’ll assist you.”

Yu Hahjin was skilled in hand-to-hand combat.

But there’s a saying that there’s no business in brawls.

In the face of the counterattack from the freed Baek Yurin and the servants, Yu Hahjin could only utter a single word as he lay defeated.

“S-Surrender. Please don’t eat me.”

In this way, Yu Hahjin was dragged to the tiger’s room, bound tightly with thick chains. In the tiger’s room, he was thrown onto a massive bed.

And Baek Yurin climbed onto the bed, breathing heavily.

“Um, Mr. Tiger?”

“Huff, huff. Call me Baek Yurin, I don’t like being called a tiger.”

“Why do you keep touching my pants?”

Yoo Hajin squirmed, resisting his touch.

“Uh, I’m not planning to use you like a bad man, you know? I can do anything for you, like playing the fool.”

“Then let go.”

“Not just that. Ugh, huff. I was never good at talking.”

But Baek Yurin’s touch didn’t stop.

“H-How do you take this off?”

Baek Yurin just ripped the pants apart.

“Uh, ugh. Men all like this kind of thing. Right?”

“Ah, no. Wait.”

And Baek Yurin’s touch moved towards that spot on Yoo Hajin.

* * *

In the new office-tel, Lua Ville, there was an old elevator.

It was the elevator that Yoo Hajin occasionally used.

And now, the old elevator in Lua Ville was moving. The display on the elevator showed floors like 1327 and &%-floor.

And with the letter saying 1st floor, the elevator doors opened.

Inside the elevator, there was a man and a girl.

And their clothes were covered in blood.

But the man casually bit on a cigarette, as if blood meant nothing.

“So Sojin, is this Omegatech really as capable as they say?”

“Well, this elevator was actually a collaboration between Omegatech and your Ilwol Five Demons. Don’t you know that, even though you paid for it with your money?”

“Well, I thought it was a subsidiary company of the Sokgye.”

Upon hearing that, the girl laughed.

“Old man, don’t underestimate science and technology. Especially when it works so well for old farts like you. You ignored this kind of technology, thinking it was just a useless weapon. Even Yoo Hajin fell victim to this latest technology.”

“What? Yoo Hajin?”

The girl proudly took out her smartphone.

“The Omegatech Spy Underwear. If someone other than Yoo Hajin touches his panties, I immediately receive a signal. Yoo Hajin, who avoids all kinds of tracking abilities, doesn’t even realize that he’s using this.”

“Wow, he’s really determined.”

The man raised his head.

And then, the man exhaled a puff of smoke before saying a word.

“And when a man and a woman have an affair, usually the underwear is something they take off themselves.”

“Really? Old man, please explain in detail.”

That was the moment.

The girl’s smartphone started to glow.

The girl looked at the screen of her smartphone and muttered.

“…Who is it?”

In an instant, the girl emitted such a chilling aura that even the man was taken aback, and she flew up into the sky.
