Chapter 62

Yeongang repeatedly clenched and unclenched his fists.

From deep within his body, from his dantian, something cool began to boil up.

The blood flowing through his veins surged, forcibly opening the dormant power within.

Whoooosh—!

Suddenly, a fierce downpour began.

‘Not even a bolt from the blue… but a downpour from a clear sky?’

Haesoo, who had glanced outside the ancestral shrine door, blinked at the heavy rain falling only in this specific area.

From a clear sky without a single dark cloud, localized heavy rain was pouring down only above the shrine’s roof.

“Water…”

Jin Dowoon, who had been standing like a faithful wife’s stone, was the first to step outside the shrine.

Jin Dowoon’s body was instantly soaked.

“Older Brother! What is this…?”

Yeongang asked in confusion, but Jin Dowoon didn’t answer and just looked down at his damp clothes clinging to his body.

Soon, as he reached out his hand, as if rewinding, the moisture left his wet clothes and they instantly became fluffy and dry.

The rainwater that had left his clothes danced and curved according to Jin Dowoon’s gestures.

“Oh… really.”

Yeongang still seemed unable to believe it as he clenched his fist with a dumbfounded expression.

Then the scattered raindrops instantly condensed to form a massive sphere of water.

It contained enough water pressure to shatter any decent-sized rock.

“This is… the power of the True Dragon that controls water and calls forth rain…!”

Jin Dowoon, having regained the long-lost power of the Jinryong Clan, couldn’t contain his overwhelming emotions.

All this time, watching their father and mother as heads of the manor, and even little Moa grow stronger, the brothers had been secretly anxious.

Now that they had gained this power, they would be able to lend a hand when there was a need to protect Moa.

“Little one! If anyone messes with you, I’ll blast them away with water!”

Yeongang grinned fiercely as he shot the water sphere up into the air.

Pop!

The sphere burst, scattering refreshing water droplets in all directions.

Watching this, Moa clapped and jumped up and down.

“Haesoo oppa, let’s also… huh, you don’t want to? Okay!”

Moa reached out her hand to Haesoo, but seeing him shake his head, she ran outside by herself.

“It’s a water park!”

Moa stomped her feet in the rainwater puddles, splashing around.

Though she looked like a drowned rat, the siblings’ laughter was clearer and more refreshing than ever.

“You should come too, oppa! It’s fun!”

As Moa frantically gestured to Haesoo, he squeezed his eyes shut and opened them.

It’s not muddy water, but clean rainwater…

Muttering this, Haesoo slowly walked outside and flicked rainwater at Moa’s face.

“Oh my!”

“…Haha.”

When Moa got sulky at Haesoo but ended up laughing anyway, Haesoo also stood awkwardly before bursting into laughter.

“Jin Cheonryong, we truly thank you.”

Jin Wonbaek, who had been watching the children laugh and play with gentle eyes, bowed deeply.

Then Jin Cheonryong spoke to Jin Wonbaek, Jin Saheon, and Jaseonghwa in a quiet voice.

[Protect that child well. If my thoughts are correct… she’s a very important child.]

As Jin Cheonryong said this, his gaze was fixed on Moa, who was hopping around imitating a frog.

‘Now it’s done… everything is truly complete.’

His daughter-in-law had become healthy, and his beloved grandchildren had gained new power.

The guilt he had harbored, wondering if his family and clan had declined because of the curse that befell him, was finally lifted.

As the long-standing burden was washed away completely, an utterly peaceful smile spread across Jin Wonbaek’s lips.

It was the moment when his body and mind—everything—was finally completely healed.

Ding—!

At that moment, a clearer notification sound than ever before rang in Moa’s ears.

-Main Mission: Heal ‘Jin Wonbaek’ (Success)

‧Rewards:

(Stage 1) Beep-beep Vroom Car (Unclaimed)

(Stage 2) Guardian Spirit Growth Stage 3

“Huh?”

Moa blinked several times.

Come to think of it, everything had happened so quickly that she hadn’t noticed at all.

She had forgotten to receive the reward even after healing Grandfather!

‘Why is this showing up now?’

As Moa panicked, Somi answered from inside the bracelet.

[Stage 1 was healing that old human’s body, and Stage 2 was completely healing his mind too, I guess.]

‘Oh… Grandfather’s heart was hurting too?’

Did his heart hurt because his body was in so much pain?

Thinking this, Moa opened her mouth in a round shape.

[And I postponed the Stage 1 reward.]

‘Eh? Why?’

[I needed some time to adapt.]

‘Huh?’

[If you get a car, who’s going to drive it?]

At Somi’s words, Moa tilted her head.

‘That’s right?!’

***

Back in her room, Moa pestered Somi.

“Hurry, the vroom car! Show me the vroom car!”

She wanted to satisfy her curiosity quickly, but since she couldn’t show it to other people, she had rushed back to her room.

[This vroom car can become my new body. Instead of a driver, I can possess it… I can slip right into the car and drive it!]

Somi explained proudly.

The reason for postponing the Stage 1 reward until now was that Somi could only enter this vroom car after growing into a Stage 3 Guardian Spirit anyway.

[Now, I’m all ready. Here you go!]

With Somi’s shout, the reward claim button in front of Moa’s eyes flashed.

Then.

-Guardian Spirit Growth: Stage 3

‧Possession ability available

Somi’s body gained a new skill and surged with vitality.

At the same time, a small crack appeared in the air.

“Ow!”

Something popped out of the crack, bonked Moa on the head, and rolled down to the floor with a tumble.

It was a fist-sized ambulance toy. It was so detailed that it even had a cute siren attached.

“It’s a toy car!”

[A toy? How disappointing! Look carefully!]

Whirr—

Click!

The wheels of the vroom car that had been lying upside down on the floor moved by themselves and righted its position.

And the smart watch screen on Moa’s wrist briefly flashed with light.

Right after that.

Flash!

The vroom car puffed up like popcorn and grew to the size of an electric mini car that could carry Moa.

At the same time, an emoticon expression appeared on the car’s windshield like an LED display.

[Ta-da! Finally escaped from that cramped watch!]

Vroom, vroooom!

The little car spun in place while making engine sounds like a living creature.

Somi, who had existed like a ghost, finally obtained a physical body suitable for interfering with the real world.

Moa stared intently at the (-_-) emoticon that appeared on the windshield.

‘That indifferent and annoyed-looking expression… that’s!’

No matter how she looked at it, that was Somi!

“Wow! Somi became an ambulance!”

[To be precise, I connected to this little car. From now on, I’ll carry you around and protect you.]

Somi demonstrated with some flashy cornering as if showing off.

Watching it weave around the objects and furniture scattered throughout the room, it truly deserved to be called a best driver.

[Come on, try getting in.]

Displaying a wink like (-_【), the little car stopped in front of Moa and opened the back seat door with a click.</p】

“Ooh… amazing.”

The inside was nothing special.

There was just a chair for Moa to sit on and some empty shelves.

“It’s empty?”

Moa climbed into the little car, sat down, and looked around.

As soon as she said it was empty, Moa’s watch flashed again, and a thermometer, syringe, medicine bottles, and other items were neatly organized.

[You have to come in and sit down once for it to sync up.]

It seemed like several items had moved out from Moa’s watch to here.

“So I can do treatments in here too?”

[Well, if you help the little car grow…?]

At those words, Moa nodded.

After all, to call this an ambulance, the inside looked like it was only for one person.

If it grew large enough for a stretcher someday, it might truly do ambulance-like work.

[But there’s one really good function right now! Get out and I’ll show you!]

“What, making me sit down and get up again?”

Moa grumbled as she climbed back out through the opened door.

She said that, but her eyes sparkled with curiosity about what the good function was.

[Stealth mode!]

As soon as Somi finished speaking, the little car disappeared transparently.

“Huh? It disappeared!”

Moa was startled and looked around.

[You can become transparent like this even when you’re riding! Perfect for hiding, right?]

“Ooh! Now it’ll be easier to go see Brother Hwi!”

Moa clapped her hands.

Then the emoticon changed to a somewhat troubled expression.

[That would be difficult.]

“Huh? Why?”

[In stealth mode, you can only move for exactly 1 minute.]

The distance between the garden where Goseol stayed and the abandoned pavilion where Danhwi was located was a bit farther than that.

At those words, Moa stuck out her lips and grumbled, then was startled and opened her eyes wide when Somi suddenly made the little car small and came out.

“Why are you suddenly doing that?”

[Put it away quickly!]

“Uh, okay.”

Moa followed Somi’s instructions and picked up the little car, carefully putting it in her pocket.

And shortly after.

“Miss! Something terrible has happened!”

Sehui entered the room with Yehui, both wearing urgent expressions.

“What’s wrong? Did they serve bad snacks?”

As Moa shuddered at the thought, Sehui shook her head.

“No, a messenger came from the Imperial Palace.”

“A messenger?”

“Someone who brought news that His Majesty is looking for you. It’s an order to enter the palace immediately because ‘Goseol’s’ condition is critical.”

The news that something had suddenly gone wrong with Goseol.

Moa frowned as she felt the hard texture in her pocket.
