The master learns from the disciple, and the disciple learns from the master.
About
In this world, there exist Gwi (ghosts), Mae (goblins), I (monsters), and In (humans). Gwi are the spirits of the dead, Mae are the mischievous pranksters, I are the cruel monsters, and In are the humans.
Goblins harassed humans, ghosts caused them suffering, and monsters tormented them with cruelty before killing them.
Humans could only endure without any means to fight back. Pitying them, the Snake God (Sa) shared his power with a human.
The human who received the power of the Snake God, the sixth of the Zodiac, used it to drive the goblins far away, but for some reason, they could not repel the monsters or the ghosts.
Monsters could hide or change their forms at will, and ghosts remained invisible to the lowly eyes of humans.
The human who had received the power prayed fervently to the Zodiac for even greater strength. Impressed by this, the Tiger God (Ho) bestowed upon humans the power to drive away ghosts.
Humans who could now repel ghosts and goblins, even if they remained helpless against monsters, were called Exorcists. Up until the modern era, humans chosen by the Zodiac became Exorcists and protected people from evil.
However, a few chosen humans began to abuse their power. People called those who committed evil deeds with that power the Akbanchi (Evil Traitors).
As the perception of Exorcists among civilians soured due to the Akbanchi, Exorcists eventually withdrew from the public eye and were no longer seen by civilians.
As time passed, the Zodiac began to hesitate in their choices, and eventually, the number of Exorcists decreased significantly.
Unable to watch this continue, the remaining Exorcists gathered to create a sanctuary. The place where they settled became invisible to civilian eyes through the power of the Zodiac.
The Exorcists who settled there prayed to the heavens.
Allow us to carry on our lineage, even if it is just among ourselves. Please, believe in us. Believe in us, who have survived tenaciously despite the betrayals of so many. Please, place even the last shred of hope in us. We shall write our own history. Please, believe in us. Please, let us be able to protect everything. No, it does not matter if we cannot protect everything. Please choose the descendants of all of us who settled here, so that we may at least protect each other.
The Zodiac looked upon them and then turned to God.
And God's command was given:
"Believe."

Early dawn.
Halfway up a high mountain stood a shrine. It was a massive traditional house where an Exorcist stayed with two disciples.
The house was noisy again today.
