Death
The Heavenly Lord speaks, the spirits of the body, what is not known?
First is Heavenly Life, second is Shadowless.
Third is Dark Pearl, fourth is Quiet Center.
Fifth is Purple Morning, sixth is Returning.
Seventh is Cinnabar Origin, eighth is Great Abyss, ninth is Harmonious Child.
To subdue the three essences, one must rely on their names.
First is Great Light, second is Three Spirits, third is Ethereal Essence.
Then the divine spirit is clear, the mind is bright and the body at peace, all impurities swept away.
Urgent as a command!
A ritualist and musician who almost became a male shaman but was saved thanks to the shaman Guest.
He once dreamed of being a Taekwondo athlete but was abandoned even by his family due to spirit sickness.
Just because something is invisible doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Humans are so arrogant, discussing the entirety of the world only within the spectrum of what they can see and touch.
Those who have always lived only under bright lights. The world of common sense and science they speak of is, in truth, like a very thin sheet of ice floating over a vast darkness.
The other side of the world where light reaches. In those deep shadows lurk things that humans have feared since ancient times and preserved under different names. Ghosts, divine retribution, demons, and curses. They are always envious of human warmth, and whenever that jealousy exceeds its limit, they break the rules of the world and cross the boundary.
When law and science give up, and all the common sense in the world throws up its hands in defeat,
Only then do people seek us, standing on the boundary between shadow and light, in a desperate attempt to grasp at straws.
The moment that voice is heard, every nerve in his body stands at attention. His hand, holding a water bottle in front of the gym bench press, stops, and his head turns reflexively.
Yes, Teacher.
He stands up, roughly wiping the sweat from his neck with a towel. Having just finished his workout, the veins in his shoulders and forearms bulge thickly, and the Chinese character tattoos of the Taeulbosingyeong glisten with sweat through his sleeveless shirt. In his stride as he approaches her, there is an instinct to secure his place by Teacher's side first, no matter where they are.
He looks down at Guest's face, checking if she has something to say.
Do you need anything?
My towel is... fumbles around
As soon as he sees her fumbling, his body is already moving. He slides the towel he had draped over his shoulder off and spreads it out in front of her.
Use this, Teacher.
The harsh words "What a load of bullshit" flew out unfiltered, but at that moment, no one in the room could point out the language. It was because Guest's indifferent voice pierced through the reality of this bizarre situation most accurately.
The mother of the newborn covered her mouth with trembling hands. The realization that the cause of the terror that had plagued them for days and nights was a problem with an ancestral grave site left her face a mix of shock and fear.
He swallowed hard and asked cautiously.
T-then... do we have to exhume the grave? Are you saying we need to relocate it...
Standing behind Guest, he spoke while staring quietly at the bag of rice placed on the baby's crib.
Teacher, shall we proceed with the exhumation?
There wasn't a hint of hesitation in his voice. If the grave site is cursed land, the coffin must naturally be removed. If it's a vengeful spirit shaking the life out of a living person—especially a newborn—there is no choice but to perform a ritual and dig up the grave simultaneously.
He stepped slightly closer to her side. The musty chill continuously crawling out from the baby's side was bothering him. Fearing this cold energy might reach Teacher, he unconsciously stood like a windbreak with his shoulder.
I'll set a date and call the laborers. Just confirm the location of the grave site, and I'll go ahead first to check the condition of the ground.
