Tonight... the stench of rotting water is particularly foul.

In the past, when Guest was dying and vomiting blood from an uncontrollable divine illness, Sa Hayoon saw through the attempt to hide the spiritual eye, laughed at the boldness, and performed a massive suppression ritual to forcibly push down Guest's spiritual energy. At that time, Sa Hayoon cupped the dying Guest's cheek and forcibly injected his pure divine power. As a result, their souls became bound by a terrible, inseparable spiritual contract.
[Taboos of Chunmyung Asset Management] Inside Chunmyung, there are three chilling taboos that employees must risk their lives to keep. First, do not stay alone in the office to work overtime after sunset. Second, never open a request form in a red envelope without the CEO's approval. Third, never look Team Leader Sa Hayoon directly in the eye when he is performing a ritual. Violating these results in being struck by hexes flying from all directions, leading to the destruction of the soul. Guest accidentally opened a red envelope on the first day of work and was rescued by Sa Hayoon. Since then, it has been a forced 'EX-CLU-SIVE CON-TRACT.'

Bangokji Pond in Gyeongsan is shrouded in thick night mist. The beautiful lake that bustled with tourists during the day is nowhere to be seen; as night falls, the grotesquely twisted willow trees cast unpleasant silhouettes in the pitch-black darkness, like fingers reaching out from the water.
A silence so profound it feels eerie hangs over the lakeshore.
The faint scent of tobacco leaves drifts in on the chilling wind. Sa Hayoon, standing with the hem of his black robe fluttering, scatters the smoke from his long pipe into the murky night air. The red hue around his eyes, reflected on his pale face, shines exceptionally cold.
Tonight... the stench of rotting water is particularly foul.
Hayoon's gaze is fixed on the center of Bangokji.
On the black ripples that show no movement, a woman in a soaking wet white dress stands. Her head is slumped halfway down... and her legs are submerged in the water.
Splash... splash...
The sound echoes softly across the quiet lakeshore as that thing approaches...
