Episode 134
“My lord!”
A subordinate holding a torch in one hand came looking for him.
“It would be best if we set off again once dawn breaks.”
He turned back to Yunhui with an uneasy expression. Something was dangerous.
Even the sky above looked dark. Clouds were slowly covering the moon.
* * *
“What is all this! We suffered for days and nights just to come to this crumbling place? Damn it. I told you the last house was better. There’s not a soul to be seen anywhere near here.”
Seoryeong was horrified looking at the rough cave. Then she took out soft silk from her bundle and rubbed it against her cheek. She was truly spoiled.
“This is precious! It’s all going to get dirty. How is this any different from being a beggar.”
“Even if it gets dirty, as long as it pleases your heart, it’s a good enough item. Don’t throw it away and use it for a long time.”
“Use it for a long time my foot! I hate grimy things the most! How about praising me for wearing this old worn-out bracelet?”
Seoryeong fussed as she took out several old clothes from her bundle and spread them on the floor. Then she carefully laid expensive silk on top of them as if it were very precious.
Only then did she smile as if satisfied with her sleeping arrangement.
“Ah. I thought I was going to die getting here! Phew…, really. Give me some water!”
Jeongan handed the small bottle from her waist to Seoryeong.
Jeongan’s gaze was subtle as she watched Seoryeong drinking water intently. Jeongan didn’t take her eyes off Seoryeong who was making gulping sounds.
Jeongan took the small bottle that Seoryeong handed back, but didn’t drink the water and tightly closed the lid.
“So-o exhausting, exhausting… My eyes are closing on their own…”
Seoryeong roughly wiped her mouth with her sleeve and flopped down on the floor. Then she fell fast asleep in an instant.
Jeongan looked down at Seoryeong and slowly took out an old, rough blanket from her small bundle to cover her.
Riiip-.
Then she tore a talisman by Seoryeong’s pillow.

Hihihik! Hihihihik!
Hihihihihihihihihihihihihihik!
In the distance, someone could be seen laughing madly and thrashing about. It looked like they were dancing merrily, or stamping their feet as if unable to control their body from rage.
Even though it was just a silhouette seen from behind, it made the back of his neck stiffen with tension.
Every time the head shook, disheveled hair fluttered like a mane.
“Who are you?”
Yunhui mustered courage to call out to that person.
Hihihihik…
That thing that panted and laughed quietly – could it really be human?
Unconsciously, Yunhui staggered backward. The sound of dry branches breaking under Yunhui’s feet could be heard.
After a short snapping sound, the continuous sound of something brushing over his feet could be heard.
Rustle- rustle-.
Centipedes crawled over Yunhui’s feet in white socks. There were countless wriggling legs.
When he unconsciously looked down at the disgusting sensation, what Yunhui saw wasn’t just his own feet.
“Ugh…”
The feet of ‘that thing’ which had been quite far away just moments before could be seen. He couldn’t bring himself to raise his gaze upward. His whole body had stiffened.
Those feet, stained with grime in places and with wounds bursting open with blood flowing, stood still as if rooted in place.
Rustle-.
While he was frozen for a moment, ‘that thing’ slowly extended its foot and touched it to Yunhui’s toes…
“Your Highness.”
At that moment, Yunhui’s eyes snapped open.
Myeongdo was calling him.
Just as Yunhui, awakened from the nightmare by the quiet voice, was about to respond.
“Shh…”
Myeongdo spoke as if telling him to be quiet.
Following his gaze, there was the shadow of something. Could it be that thing? Had it finally come into reality?
Gulp. Crown Prince Yunhui swallowed.
Myeongdo slowly drew the sword from his chest from its sheath. Yunhui also picked up the sword by his pillow and said.
“Who are you. Reveal your identity.”
His tone was refined, unlike someone who had just been having a nightmare. Then a clear, beautiful voice flowed from the shadow.
“I greet Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
Slowly reaching out to remove the bamboo hat, what was revealed was a nun with a benevolent smile.
* * *
“Ah, that scared the hell out of me…”
Reporter Wi was surprised when he looked at his watch. Only about 20 minutes of had passed.
Because of the smooth scene transitions and continuously appearing horror scenes, it felt like a long time had passed.
“Jjang Director really knows how to control the pacing well.”
The nun Jeongan greeted Yunhui and then respectfully offered him a talisman. It was a talisman written with her blood.
Perhaps judging her as a dangerous person, the talisman was received by Myeongdo who stood firmly blocking Yunhui’s front.
“What is this. Explain.”
“Evil things are targeting Your Highness.”
“…Why.”
When the strange incidents that he couldn’t even tell Myeongdo about came from Jeongan’s mouth, Yunhui, who was behind Myeongdo, spoke up. Jeongan said calmly.
“It is to go against the natural order.”
“Natural order… Why? Am I some kind of sacrifice to those things?”
Yunhui asked with a self-deprecating smile. It was remarkable that Yunhui, who suffered with such nightmares every day, was still sane.
He had endured solely through mental strength. Without relying on anyone.
“Yes.”
Jeongan, who had been smiling gently until just before, hardened her expression and said.
Whoooo-. A sharp wind blew from far away. Myeongdo looked at Jeongan fiercely.
“How rude.”
Despite Myeongdo’s intimidating restraint, Jeongan didn’t yield and only spoke the truth.
“It is because a life that should not be alive has been forcibly extended.”
“…How do you know that. That matter could not have leaked outside.”
“Because one who cannot ascend to the heavenly position covets that position, the evil things try to go against the natural order.”
The scene changed and a flashback began.
Young Seonghui could be seen. Because of Seonghui who had fever blisters on his body every day and coughed up blood, the palace atmosphere was no different from a house of mourning.
“Quickly! Quickly call another physician!”
“Your Majesty, please calm yourself…”
“They’re all quacks everywhere! Ahhh! Ahhhhh!”
Seonghui’s mother and the mistress of Yeomho Kingdom’s Inner Palace. The Queen was out of her mind.
She grabbed the physician’s collar like a madwoman.
The court ladies outside ran around busily carrying white cotton cloth. Seonghui’s blood stains were splattered like flowers.
“Your Majesty. I…”
It was dawn as she personally tended to Seonghui, dismissing everyone else and wiping his sweat while nursing him. The head court lady who was closest to the Queen approached, leaving someone behind her.
“Yes, it’s you… You’ve come!”
The Queen hurriedly rushed toward the shadow behind the head court lady. The Queen smiled brightly, seeming overjoyed, perhaps having heard rumors about her.
“They say you can even bring the dead back to life? I trust only in you.”
The woman receiving the Queen’s welcome stepped forward. The shadow slowly receded, revealing her face.
The woman smiled brightly with an unfocused expression, her eyes seeming to look nowhere in particular.
“It is an honor for this lowly one to serve such a noble person…?”
Her words trailed off strangely. She was Yeomga.
[♨The Occult Boom is Coming Coming Gimyodam Episode 1 Bulpan♨]
-Every time there’s a sale I cover my eyes… Sales are scarier than actual ghosts, damn it ㅠㅠㅡㅠㅜㅠ
-Ah I think something cursed got on my screen ah what do I do
First, try wiping it with some water… holy water would be even better
Damn, this is insanely sexy
-Are you by any chance a current shaman at Geumbit River? You seem suspicious as fuckㅜㅜㅜㅠ
Having saved Prince Seonghui, Yeomga continued to forcibly extend his lifespan from behind.
Whenever his body ached or he saw illusions, Prince Seonghui would seek out Yeomga.
Yeomga was gradually building her power bit by bit.
The sound of a flute creating tension rang out. The cuckoo’s call grew louder as if it had come much closer.
Back to the present.
Jeongan spoke to Yunhui with a serious expression.
“Whatever methods they use, everything will flow according to the natural order. So you must return to your rightful place. Do not let go of anything.”
“My rightful place… Just how much do you know?”
“Allow me to greet you again.”
Jeongan bowed to Yunhui with a resolute expression.
“Your Majesty.”
* * *
“Ah, not scary at all really.”
IP 85.152 muttered while half-turning their gaze away from the screen. If it seemed like the shift key was pressed in their voice, it was all just imagination.
Gimyodam Minor Gallery
[No need to go to a water park this summer, fuck I’m already soaked]
[Simply divine… From now on I’ll call her Bitkang the Radiant…]
[They kept saying something really big was coming and damn, something absolutely insane came ㄷㄷㄷ]
Looking at the cell phone in their hand, IP 85.152 calmed their heart. Beyond the screen, the story was steadily progressing.
Yunhui didn’t believe Jeongan’s words.
His older brother was simply weak in body, but was a kind and upright person. He cared for the people more than anyone.
“Since you seem to know everything, I’ll speak comfortably. Yes. My brother and I planned to switch places when the time came. I have no intention… of becoming king.”
Otherwise, there would be no reason to drag that body all the way to a remote village.
“The position I currently occupy is… at most, yes. At most temporary.”
Yunhui’s voice trembled.
“So why would my brother… why on earth would he do such a thing. It’s all nonsense.”
His brother knew better than anyone that Yunhui had no desire for the throne.
All the countless days they had shared together couldn’t all be lies.
“Please tear one of the talismans I give you each night before sleeping. That will protect Your Majesty.”
“…”
Jeongan put on her bamboo hat and gestured with her chin toward Myeongdo, who was holding a bundle of talismans.
Following her gaze, that place was.
“In half a month, head east. If you go toward where the sun is closest, you will meet one who can guide everything according to the natural order.”
Myeongdo’s handkerchief tied to a tree branch was swaying in the wind.
It was impossible. How could the handkerchief they had tied far away have moved to the tree right before their eyes?
But just as when she came, Jeongan disappeared like a mirage when she left.
Yunhui’s expression was complex as he looked at where she had vanished. It was because he instinctively felt suspicious.
Even though he didn’t want to, it felt like a corner of his heart was crumbling.
He should trust his brother, but he couldn’t bring himself to…
He didn’t want to believe those words, but he ended up believing them…
What should he do to maintain their brotherhood without suspecting his brother?
Yunhui slowly clenched his hands with force. Veins bulged over his fists. Beside such Yunhui, Myeongdo opened his mouth.
“…Your Majesty.”
Whether her words were true or not, Myeongdo had to confirm.
“I will go.”
He was a chief secretary.
He had a duty to reveal the truth, and if it was true, it was a matter of preventing the foundation of this country from shaking, and if it was false, it was a matter of catching the schemes of mere shamans and nuns trying to manipulate the country.
Either way, it would be a disaster for the people.
Chief Secretary Myeongdo decided he must cut off this malice of unknown origin with one stroke.
For his lord, for the people, and for this country.
Thump- thump- thump-.
Like his resolve, the sound of drums echoed.
Whether it was the sound of his heart beating or the sound of Yeomho Kingdom’s future collapse was still uncertain.
Before long, the cuckoo’s call could no longer be heard.
“When will Han Yeoreum appear…”
It was when IP 85.152, who had been watching tensely in front of the TV, muttered.
“Oh! It’s Han Yeoreum!”
Yeoreum finally appeared on screen.
The reason IP 85.152 had turned on a drama they normally wouldn’t even watch. That Han Yeoreum had made her full-scale appearance in .
