The Shaman Wants Transcendence

44 – How to Enjoy the Festival

“Fox, fox. What a good animal.”

Jinseong recalled the red foxes he had seen while working as a mercenary in England.

Like stray cats with good affinity, which are common in other countries, red foxes did not avoid people, but often showed clever ways such as tricks or aegyo to get food. In addition, his intelligence was so good that he could even be seen using the bus or subway.

Thanks to the foxes that were spread out like that, Jinseong was able to use witchcraft easily.

He could easily collect parasites such as heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis) and Echinococcus, and used the collected materials to carry out assassination requests.

In particular, it was very good to disguise it as a natural death because it looked like it died from allergies when it was killed by causing an anaphylaxis reaction with Echinocox.

‘I’ve been using fox skins like that, and I really miss them.’

Moreover, the use of foxes does not end with collecting parasites.

The fox is an animal that symbolizes ‘wisdom’ in most countries. It was described in both negative and positive aspects, but it had good versatility because it had a thing called ‘wisdom’ in common.

Of course, since it is an animal related to wisdom, many of the spells cast by foxes have an effect on wisdom. Although there were differences among spells, most of the fox-related spells improved brain function, and thanks to this, Jinseong used to carry fox skins and cast spells on his colleagues every day.

‘I avoided it even if I told you to walk me later. Tsk tsk tsk.’

Activation of brain function.

But the brain is a very, very delicate thing.

There was no problem in activating it artificially.

Problems in the frontal lobe resulted in over-concentration, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex lost taste and greatly reduced application ability, or orbital frontal lobe damage caused anger control disorders.

In addition, some wizards’ magic became unstable due to brain wave abnormalities, and there were problems in combat due to dopamine nervous system abnormalities.

In order to solve the problem caused by that, he casts a spell on the fox skin again, and thanks to that, the brain function is further damaged… The vicious cycle was repeated.

Criticism?

There were people who did.

However, most did not criticize Jinseong.

In the first place, it is a mercenary’s daily life to do everything to survive in battle, and to drink designed drugs before the start of battle. No matter how much Jinseong’s witchcraft damages the brain, is it worse than drinking medicine?

Especially after World War 3 broke out, most of them were half-conscious, so they didn’t think much of buying the present by selling the future. It’s not about cutting the brain, it’s just a little bit of a breakdown, but the general opinion was that there was no need to mess around with it.

‘The life of a mercenary was rough, but it was rewarding.’

Of course, I hated Jinseong and distanced myself from those who cared too much about my body.

It was the reason that he destroyed people with parasites and consumed the lives of his comrades like bullets.

They did not hesitate to call Jin-seong and Jin-seong’s colleagues crazy, and they would be frightened at the sight of a fox, let alone a fox skin.

“Fox. Fox.”

Jinseong suddenly thought of Iarin.

‘Martial arts imitating beasts. Fox there hmm.’

He’s somethingAs if contemplating, I took out my phone and looked at Rise.

RiSe quietly stood one step behind Jinseong and slightly bowed her head, which seemed to follow Jinseong respectfully.

‘Mukurikokurinoinugami would, so to speak, belong to dogs. And since the fox is also a dog…’

Rise’s long, straight hair reflected the light from the lamp and shone. Perhaps because of her divine power, her hair, which was exceptionally shiny, seemed to shine and flow like her lustrous thread.

Jinseong turned around behind her and gently stroked Rise’s hair with his hand. RiSe seemed a bit surprised by this, but she relaxed and closed her eyes as if she was going to surrender herself to Jinseong.

“Hmm.”

Jin-seong felt the hair slipping from his hand as soft and smooth as smooth silk. I also felt the flow of divine power that quickly reached the ends of her hair and then returned to her body, as if a signal was flickering on an optical cable.

“The overflowing divine power flows even through the hair.”

The divine power generously poured into Rise overflowed to the point that it flowed through every single strand of her hair.

‘It would be nice to send a text first. Anyway, if both of them receive the fox, there is no truth and there is only profit.

Jinseong thought so and sent a text message to Arin Lee.

Then, thinking deeply about who was in power related to Tottori Prefecture, he and Rise headed to their lodgings.

『Is life tolerable in Russia? I am doing well in Japan. Thanks to the good information, there was some harvest, and now I have some spare time, so I’m going to take a look at the festival. But when I saw the festival, I thought of you, so I texted you like this. Even if it’s an international exchange, there will be holidays, so it would be nice if we could make time to come over to Japan and watch the festival together. And there are connections to introduce and gifts to give. 』

Arin smiled at the long text on her cell phone that she confirmed after her martial arts training was over.

“This bastard, I’m finally contacting you.”

She read her text slowly with a look of gladness and joy on her face.

Tadadak!

Fault!

She didn’t just run, she jumped over the window and climbed the tree outside the window, moving like an animal, arriving at the room in an instant, and knocking on the window as she was accustomed to.

“…You fool.”

Lee Se-Rin frowned slightly and opened her window, and she let her nag fly at Lee A-Rin, who jumped into her room like a cat.

“I told you not to go in and out of the window. Because I always go there like that, Russian students call me Puma Корея́нка!”

“Why~ Puma Korean girl. In English, Puma Korean girl! Doesn’t it sound like a hero’s name? It’s cool~”

“That… Ha.”

Se-Rin Lee let out a small sigh at the sight of A-Rin, who listened to her nagging with one ear and let it flow through her one. Then the cold wind came in. She hung up the window and locked it.

“So, so… What else is this time?”

What an accident she had when Ia Lin came as her exchange student.

It was her daily routine to go about her eccentricities on fictional days.

She skipped her class and went up to the rooftop to sunbathe because the sun seemed nice.Isn’t it, doesn’t it get drunk after seeing a bear drinking beer? . I even met the bear often and became friends drinking cola and beer.

“It’s not enough to get a warning this time, is it?”

That’s why Se-rin Lee’s way of speaking was naturally worried.

Not worrying about Iarin, but worrying about warnings and penalty points.

However, Arin Lee said that she didn’t think she was always causing her accidents, and she got angry at Serin because of her red flag, and she held out her smart phone to her and shouted.

“Hey! Look! I got a text message from Longbi!”

At that, Serene handed her her smartphone and read the text slowly.

‘Is life tolerable in Russia? .’

Jinseong’s text, which started with asking how he was doing, was really long.

It was so long that I wondered if it might have been stuffed all the unsent information into one place.

Se-rin Lee, who had been reading the text for a long time, stopped writing at the moment.

“It smells like a target.”

Gift.

As if she was stuck in that word, Lee Se-rin stopped looking at her.

[ A gift, a gift. It is very easy for words to emit such a nasty stink. I don’t know what kind of secret I’m harboring that makes me so terrible. ]

The devil also frowned as if his nose hurt from the stinging smell.

The camel’s frown made his face look crumpled, so it looked funny, but his face was full of seriousness.

[A gift is a word that probably holds a secret, and if it is related to a secret, it is my domain. So, Contractor, lovely Contractor who likes to see secrets. You, too, will be able to feel a bit of a sense of what this word exudes. ]

This Serene frowned at the stink, zoomed in on the text, and placed her index finger over the word ‘gift’. She then closed her eyes.

With her eyes closed, Lee Se-rin saw a golden thread floating in the air. It had a meaningless shape floating in the air like an epilepsy, and when you close your eyes with a bright light in front of you, the light leaks in and dazzles you. It didn’t work.

However, at that moment, vibrations shining in silver spread out and wrapped around the golden thread, and the golden thread swayed and moved to form its shape, and it looked like a picture drawn with golden thread.

‘Fox.’

The golden thread drew the shape of a fox. The golden fox had lustrous and shiny fur, perhaps because it was made of golden thread, but it had smooth and beautiful fur that looked as if water droplets would ride on it. The fox was eating something, wagging its two tails, and it was flat and square.

‘Hand.’

But that pleasure is short-lived. A huge hand touched the fox.

The hand, reminiscent of a giant’s, was a whitish-dark color that made it hard to see as if it were made of blank space under closed eyelids, and it gripped the fox violently as if it were about to squeeze it.

Then, moving it as if kneading it, isn’t it changing the golden thread into the shape he wants!

And the shape made in that way is a human figure.

The appearance of a person…

‘Uh?’

A person’s appearance changes.

A human figure that looks like a child holding crayons in his hand and drawing roughly is crushed.All. The shape is crushed, becomes a skein of thread, becomes a bundle, is released again, and the shape becomes clear. A small circle embedded in the middle like a nucleus, and a line of a large circle drawn around that circle. Then, as if lightning spread, thin threads spread out from the circle in all directions, and they stopped moving from a certain line as a starting point and made another shape as if they had collided with a wall.

The figure is a form created by two gently curved lines.

Its appearance is like snow.

Eye.

From person to eye.

The human form changed to snow.

The shape of her eyes curved into a crescent moon as if she were laughing.

“Ugh!”

This Serene couldn’t help but open her eyes abruptly, screaming at the thrill she felt in her eyes at that moment.

[ Her? What is this? ]
