Chapter 105

The Entrance Door was fitted with an old-fashioned key lock rather than a keypad.
Ji-seok slowly grasped the door handle and turned it.
As expected, the door was locked.
“Should we knock?”
Tae-woo asked as a final attempt.
Ji-seok, who had been deliberating for a moment, gave a small nod.
Tae-woo carefully knocked on the door while keeping his gun trained on the door frame.
Knock, knock, knock— Ding dong—
When there was no response, he tried pressing the doorbell instead.
But no sound came from within.
The blue dot emanating from inside the Villa showed no change either.
Ji-seok cast a glance toward Tae-woo.
Tae-woo shook his head.
It was a signal indicating that his radar detected nothing either.
“Let’s get out of here.”
Ji-seok pointed toward the upper Staircase and moved forward first.
Tae-woo and Min-hye followed him back outside the Villa.
“Choi Employee. Stay here at the entrance for a moment. We’re going to check those semi-basement windows.”
“Understood.”
Ji-seok positioned Min-hye at the Villa entrance, then circled around the Building toward the semi-basement windows.
The window, slightly below ground level, had thick black bars firmly installed.
Not only was the window closed, but it was completely blocked from the inside with newspaper plastered all over it, making it impossible to see within.
“Something seems off, doesn’t it?”
Ji-seok nodded in agreement with Tae-woo’s observation.
What ordinary household would cover up a small window like that with newspaper?
Something was definitely happening inside this place.
“Should we try entering from here?”
“It’s suspicious, but what if this isn’t the Jjamppong Killer? Then things get complicated.”
It was at that very moment Ji-seok shook his head.
A blue dot suddenly appeared on Tae-woo’s Ghost Radar, moving rapidly.
“What?!”
It happened in an instant.
The blue dot moved in a flash, and then came the sound of a door opening.
The malevolent spirit—or rather, the person possessed by the malevolent spirit—that had been inside the Basement Level was now emerging outside.
“The entrance!”
Tae-woo bolted forward like a bullet.
Ji-seok rushed after him without hesitation.
The moment they turned the corner of the building.
A man leaped from the staircase, hurling himself toward Min-hye.
She seemed to sense the approach through her spiritual intuition, her body already pivoting to face the threat.
“Min-hye!”
Tae-woo shouted urgently.
It looked as though the man would overwhelm her.
But something unexpected unfolded.
Thwack—
Min-hye stepped back swiftly, then unleashed a spinning kick directly at the man’s face.
In that brief instant, she had evaded and counterattacked with flawless precision.
Crack—
Thud—
The man who had crashed to the ground sprang back up immediately.
Min-hye pressed forward without hesitation, driving her palm forcefully into his chest.
Boom—
The sound that followed resembled an explosive detonation.
Whoosh— rumble—
The man was hurled backward several meters before slamming violently against the wall.
With a dull thud, he collapsed instantly.
It was a fleeting moment, yet devastatingly destructive.
Without a weapon, she could incapacitate a possessed person in an instant.
It was a far cry from the concern I had harbored about her small frame and weak voice.
That was when it happened.
Squelch—
A dark silhouette began rising from the fallen man’s back.
The entity, as if drenched in thick black liquid, had only limbs and a head distinguishable; its facial features and clothing were utterly invisible.

Screech—

Soon, screaming human faces began to protrude from various points across the dark entity’s body.
It was as if the beings trapped within were struggling with all their might to break free and escape.
“Silent Spirit Ghost.”
Ji-seok spoke those final words.
‘I have to cut down Silent Spirit Ghost with the Blood Blade?’
In that instant, my spine went cold.
I had cut down Silent Spirit Ghost with the Ghost Slayer Blade several times before, but I had never faced it alone with the Blood Blade.
And whether that was even possible—I couldn’t say for certain.
The Blood Blade lacked the explosive destructive power of the Ghost Slayer Blade.
Whoosh—
Right then.
Min-hye launched her attack first.
She surged forward at tremendous speed and immediately hurled a punch at the entity.
Boom—!
A violent shockwave erupted from the fist, tearing through the air and radiating outward in all directions.
Even I and Ji-seok, standing several meters away, had to shield our faces and brace ourselves against the impact.
Crash—thud—
Min-hye was driven backward by the recoil and tumbled across the ground.
I immediately drew my gun and fired at the dark entity.
Bang bang bang—!
As the bullets flew, the black form convulsed its limbs grotesquely and bolted back into the Villa Building.
I chased after it immediately.
Thud thud thud thud—crash—
The ghost evaded me by descending to the Basement Level, then slammed shut the Entrance Door it had opened.
I watched from the top of the Staircase, then turned my head toward Min-hye.
“Are you alright?”
As I approached to ask, Ji-seok moved to Min-hye’s side and spoke.
“Leave this to me. You go down.”
At those words, I nodded with grim resolve and turned my body back toward the Staircase below.
Click—
With a USP pistol in my left hand and the Blood Blade in my right, I began descending the Staircase slowly.
The gun’s targeting reticle appeared as a yellow dot in my smart glasses’ field of view.
I checked the position of that dot repeatedly as I descended the Staircase one step at a time.
Thump—thump thump—
Upon reaching the Entrance Door, I took a deep breath and slowly opened it.
Creak—
This time, the door was already open.
I stepped inside and then closed the door behind me to prevent the ghost from escaping.
The ghost present here was the most malevolent of evil spirits that had inhabited the Jjamppong Killer’s body—the Murder Ghost.
Moreover, judging by how it had possessed a body, roamed as far as Ilsan, and killed people, it was not a spirit bound to a specific location like a place-bound ghost.
That meant—if the door was open, the creature could escape whenever it pleased.
Though I lacked the strength of a ghost exorcist, I couldn’t allow this malevolent spirit to roam free outside, even if it meant being trapped alone with it in this house.
I took a deep breath in the entrance hall, where shoes lay scattered haphazardly, then gripped my weapons firmly in both hands.
Still wearing my shoes, I stepped up onto the entrance platform.
Then I tried flipping the fluorescent light switch.
As expected, nothing happened.
I activated the flashlight on my smart glasses to illuminate my surroundings.
Click—
The house was a complete disaster.
Mold bloomed everywhere, animal corpses littered the floor releasing a stench of blood, and various food waste scattered across the ground.
It was incomprehensible that anyone could live in such a place.
Moreover, the stench that assaulted my nostrils was far worse than I could have imagined.
I covered my nose slightly and surveyed the surroundings.
Two rooms and one bathroom.
The living room was immediately visible upon opening the entrance door, with the kitchen adjacent to it.
The layout had rooms on both sides of the living room.
However, both room doors happened to be firmly shut.
I ventured inside and thoroughly searched the kitchen and living room first.
Everything was covered in mold, so blackened that I couldn’t predict where a dark shape might suddenly emerge.
After checking the kitchen, I approached the clutter piled in the corner of the living room.
When I kicked it lightly with my foot, the junk collapsed with a rumbling sound.
“Gasp—!”
What appeared from within that pile was a human corpse.
A female body, still undecayed, with eyes wide open in death, revealed itself.
I startled and stepped back, checking my Ghost Radar.
Among the scattered blue dots everywhere, a very dark blue dot appeared on the right side.
That meant the malevolent spirit was there.
I headed straight toward it.
Two closed doors came into view.
One was the bathroom door, and the other was a room door.
I opened the bathroom door first.
“Creak—”
A pungent smell of blood assaulted my nostrils.
The mirror, sink, toilet, and walls were all covered in bloodstains.
The structure and items were identical to that “corpse desecration scene” I had witnessed.
This was the space that existed within the Victim Ghost’s consciousness.
I covered my nose with the back of my hand and stepped back.
Then I kicked the room door beside it wide open with a loud crash.
Screeeeeech—
Simultaneously, a dark shape burst forth and lunged directly at my face.
As he attempted to stab with the blood-stained blade, the black form suddenly extended tentacle-like appendages and hurled the weapon far across the room.
Whoosh—
Clang—
The blood-stained blade clattered to the floor and skidded into the corner of the kitchen.
But I didn’t surrender, pulling the trigger of my USP toward the ghost’s head.
Bang bang bang bang bang—
With the sharp crack of the airsoft pistol, bullets tore through the ghost’s head.
Yet it only belched black smoke, refusing to dissipate.

Kyaaaaaaaa—

The black form released an otherworldly shriek from its invisible maw and hurled me violently across the room.
Crash—
I was thrown across the living room and slammed directly into the door on the opposite side.
The violent impact shattered the door, and I caught sight of another corpse.
Thud— thud— thud—
The black form emerged slowly from the shattered doorway.
As I looked toward it, the flashlight on my smart glasses illuminated the black form.
As expected, the black form cast no shadow.

Squelch—

That was the moment.
The liquids coating the black form’s body began dripping to the floor.

Splat— splat—
Plop— plop— plop—

The liquid fell to the floor in a gelatinous mass, like slime.
And then—a ghost materialized before me.
Hair splayed outward like a mop, skin the vivid crimson of fresh blood.
Eyes black as the void itself, with grotesquely enlarged nostrils.
It was a ghost bearing a massive mouth crammed with densely packed teeth.
The moment I laid eyes on it, I felt my spine turn to ice.
“This… this is a Murder Ghost at the level of a Grade 5 Silent Spirit Ghost?!”
I had encountered ghosts with pallid white skin or corpse-gray complexions before.
I had even faced ghosts whose skin bore prominent crimson veins.
But a ghost with skin this intensely blood-red—this was my first time.
Even before joining Guihon Trading Company, I had never seen a ghost with such crimson skin.
I immediately raised my gun and fired at the ghost.
The bullets flew true toward the yellow targeting reticle on my smart glasses.
Pap-pap-pap-pap-pap—
Pap-pap-pap-pap-pap-pap—
Every round found its mark exactly as aimed.
Yet the ghost did not dissipate; instead, it bulldozed toward me like an unstoppable force.
Shhhhhhh—
Simultaneously, mold spread rapidly across the wall and ceiling behind the ghost.
The ghost’s malevolent aura was dispersing the mold in all directions.
“Damn it.”
There was nowhere to escape.
I charged forward while squeezing the trigger.
Bang-bang-bang-bang—
At the same moment, I reversed my grip on the blood-soaked blade in my right hand and hurled myself at the ghost.
Whoooosh—
The ghost extended its arm toward me.
In that instant—I perceived the ghost’s attack as if watching in slow motion.
I twisted my body in mid-air, evading the creature’s grasp.
Without hesitation, I spun a full 360 degrees and plunged the blood-soaked blade into the ghost’s back.
Thunk—
The blade sank into the ghost’s back with a dull impact.
The ghost staggered, its upper body lurching forward slightly from the shock.
I did not pause; I immediately wrenched the blade sideways with all my strength.
Shhhhhhhhh—
The ghost’s back split open, black smoke erupting from the wound.
Yet it did not dissipate. Instead, it twisted around and lashed out at me with a vicious swipe.
Crash—
The devastating blow sent me skidding backward until I crashed into the kitchen.
Boom—
