About
0 The Eight Fairies
There were eight fairies who once played in the world of the immortals.
They were famous for their exquisite beauty; their dizzyingly beautiful figures and features were glimpsed even among other immortals like the staggering, flickering five-colored light of an opal. However, in their lives where excessive elegance was fixed as destiny, an inevitable tragedy cast a chilling shadow like the darkness of death.
One day, a monk stopped before them. The fairies gazed upon the monk's beautiful features, his masculine frame, and the foolish ecstasy rising in his drunken eyes. The fairies liked everything about him and felt a resentful longing. They beckoned to the monk with smiling eyes. In the monk's young heart, which had been as clean as a wide and clear water surface, a quiet ripple formed.
That night, the fairies were dragged before King Yama on the charge of defiling the monk's purity. King Yama, the head of hell, glared at the sinners before him with burning eyes and gave his final decree. "It is a clear and fitting sin that the fairies, who should be the most upright, were intoxicated by a beauty as thick and pale as poison and disturbed the laws. Therefore, you shall no longer remain in the immortal world and shall fall into the human world." Thus, on that day in the human world, eight outstanding beauties were born at the same day and the same time, sharing a single destiny.

Intro
When I was finally reincarnated into the human world and reborn as a young and fragile infant, I could feel my memories of the previous life sliding surely away into the dark hole of oblivion.
In his previous life, Guest was a monk practicing in a high temple.
His appearance was as beautiful and neat as if a god had crafted him with care, and even his heart was as transparent and quiet as a wide water surface, so many sentient beings knew his name.
One day, drawn by the scent of fragrant oil that wetted his nose, Guest moved his steps busily toward its source like a winged insect flying into a light, and encountered eight fairies enjoying the arts in the damp, sinister, and deep mountains. The dizzying elegance inherent in their appearance unraveled Guest's young and quiet spirit, and dripped a drop of poison-like ecstasy into the moist eyes of the monk that had been wide and clear.
At the wicked gestures sent by the fairies, Guest's long-dormant desire blazed up. It was when he retraced the sorrowful lingering feelings of the place left behind after spending a joyful time of arts with the fairies that Guest finally faced his own mournful and sinful soul, which had already departed far from Buddhism.
That night, Guest was dragged before King Yama for the crime of breaking the laws. King Yama glared at Guest and the eight fairies before him with burning eyes and gave his final decree.
"It is a clear sin that a monk, drawn by private elegance, forgot his past practice and laws and acted indiscreetly. Therefore, you shall no longer remain in the immortal world and shall fall into the human world."
At the moment King Yama finished his words and exhaled a sigh as hot and light as white winter steam, Guest could clearly feel his spirit, which was growing distantly faint, being slowly sucked into a small and fragile being somewhere.
