by fnovelpiaPeople who reach high positions are often given various nicknames to describe them, and this was no different for Yu-hwa.
Fox of the sky.
The Witch of Fate.
The owner of Cheon Sang-ru.
Although each name has its own meaning, they were all connected by Yuhwa’s ability.
Clairvoyance.
Clairvoyance is the saying that when you look at the sky, you will understand the principles of the sky; when you look at the ground, you will understand the principles of the ground; and when you look at people, you will understand the principles of people.
Yuhwa was able to confirm many things with her clairvoyance, and thanks to that, she was able to be called the top.
A fox that truly has the will of heaven in its heart.
Recently, there was one thing that even a painter like that could not read even if he stared at it with his eyes wide open.
Gumiho.
A fox monster that escaped from Cheonungok.
While I thought it was an illusion that the spirit of the nine-tailed fox had appeared in the fox bead, I found it difficult to ignore it and pretend not to see it.
So he tried to look at the nine-tailed fox, but he couldn’t see it at all. The leaves of the World Tree were blocking his vision.
I can’t tell if my supernatural powers are really weakened and I’m seeing things as if they’re hallucinating, or if I’m seeing things correctly but I’m mistaken. It’s just frustrating.
‘If it really is a nine-tailed fox…’
We need to find it as soon as possible.
We must return it to Cheonungok while its tail is still small. Otherwise, the world will be twisted.
The problem is that there is no way to find it. Yuhwa let out a long sigh of worry. Then the fox bead lit up. It was a connection signal.
“Elderly, this is Hoyeon.”
The voice beyond the beads belonged to Hoyeon, the administrator of Cheon Sangru. Yuhwa cleared her throat and cleared her throat.
It was definitely a young woman’s voice.
“What’s going on?”
“A guest has arrived.”
Yuhwa’s eyes narrowed.
“I told you to be quiet since you won’t be seeing anyone for a while.”
“I sent it back, but he asked me to tell him something… Oh, no. I think I lost my mind for a moment.”
Beyond the beads, Hoyeon shook his head. It was a strange thing.
Hoyeon would normally have struck down a request from an unidentified tribe like a sword. How dare he tell such nonsense to a supreme leader like the sky.
However, the moment I heard his request, the option of refusing did not occur to me. I reported to Yu-hwa as if I was under a spell, as if I was under a spell.
Hoyeon will never know that Karami’s plausible words from the skill [Negotiation Master] have penetrated his mind.
“I’m sorry, sir. I will step aside.”
“Wait a minute.”
Yuhwa stopped Hoyeon from disconnecting.
There is a saying in the world.
There are two things I hate the most: one is giving an explanation halfway through, and the second is…
“If you start talking, finish it. What did you want me to say?”
“That’s really useless talk… That’s… …The nine-tailed fox came to visit… .”
“Gumiho?”
Yuhwa’s eyes sparkled.
My head was already full of thoughts of the gumiho, and why did the gumiho come to me at such a perfect time?
“But it wasn’t a gumiho. It only had three tails.”
Yuhwa’s pupils shook with a thud.
Already has three tails?
“Where are you… .”
“Yes?”
“Where are those two now!”
The shout of oil painting falling from the opposite marble.
It was the first time that even Hoyeon, who had been assisting her for a long time, had seen Yuhwa fidgeting like this. Hoyeon spoke in a tense voice.
“Ah, I sent it back earlier!”
“Bring me now!”
***
“Ugh, ugh… I’m sorry. The old man… wants to see you.”
Hoyeon guides Karami and his party with a breathy voice.
In fact, Karami, who had expected me to call right away, was waiting outside the building. Thanks to that, I was able to find it quickly without much trouble.
However, there was a reason why Hoyeon’s complexion became shadowy. It wasn’t because he was physically weak, but because of a psychological reason.
It was because his superior, the usually calm Yuhwa, was showing signs of impatience. Hoyeon’s heart also started pounding.
“From here, just follow the hallway.”
The place where Hoyeon stopped guiding was not the room, but the hallway.
The owner of Cheon Sang-ru, Yu-hwa, is a person who is tightly covered with a veil. There are eyewitness accounts that she is a wrinkled old woman, but there are also eyewitness accounts that she is a pretty woman.
Even the administrator Hoyeon has never seen Yuhwa’s face in detail.
When she needs to talk, she contacts Yuhwa through the beads she was given, and she always wears a veil when she goes out.
The veil doesn’t budge even when the wind blows, and even when I occasionally see her face, it is covered by a hazy cloud.
So, even if you want to see it, you can’t.
“Thank you for your guidance.”
“Haa… No. Have a good time.”
Hoyeon, with a face wrinkled with fatigue, muttered that today was a strange day and left.
Karami took Lin’s hand and started walking down the hallway.
Walking down the hallway felt strange.
Although the building was large, it felt like walking through an endless staircase. No matter how much I walked, there was no end to it, and even when I turned the corner, when I looked back, there was only a straight hallway stretching out.
A space beyond the world’s logic.
It was a magic trick performed by Yuhwa.
‘Anyway, it’s useless.’
Lin, who was starting to get annoyed, screamed at the top of her lungs.
“Rin I hate this place!”
Lin’s scream echoes loudly.
Pakang!
A cracking sound, like glass breaking.
The magical curtain surrounding the hallway parted. The endless corridor changed shape and a large sliding door appeared.
“Well done.”
“Hmm!”
He patted Lin’s head, who was sticking her nose up, and opened the door.
Hwaak.
A cool breeze blew.
What unfolded before my eyes was white and blue.
Below my feet, pure white clouds spread endlessly, and the sky is a clear blue. There are clouds in that sky, and there is another sky above that.
A world above the clouds floating in the sky.
It was the sky.
“Jjuin! I opened the door and it was the sky!”
“That’s right. It’s just like the heavens.”
When I looked back, there was only the door I had come in through, and no walls or anything like that.
This was also a space created by Yuhwa’s magic.
“I’ve been waiting.”
A graceful and beautiful voice heard from the sky.
The clouds that had been faintly billowing across the blue sky slowly parted, and a white light descended through the gap.
The fog rolled down like a fog machine on stage. What came down, surrounded by a soft light, was a pure white fox.
Her white tail, like a fairy’s wings, fluttered, and her flowing silk clothes spread out like waves in the air.
The elegantly descending Yuhwa lingers in the air, its toes barely touching the ground.
Took.
Landed lightly.
‘The directing is fucked up.’
It was Karami’s frivolous impression upon witnessing the awe-inspiring sight.
“Are you the guests Hoyeon was talking about?”
“That’s right.”
“Hello. I am the owner of Cheon Sang-ru. My name is Yu-hwa.”
A sacred atmosphere where it seems like you shouldn’t speak carelessly.
The beautiful appearance does not seem to belong to a terrestrial creature.
It seemed as if the fox might have tricked him into cutting open his stomach and taking out his liver, but Karami’s expression was indifferent.
‘This old lady used disguise again.’
An old woman who has lived for a thousand years but acts like a pretty girl and doesn’t act her age.
The shell is a pretty girl, but inside, she looks like a middle-aged male YouTuber. To Karami, who drank a whole drum of red medicine, she looks like nothing more than a drunken old lady.
“Fox Granny!”
“Grandma… ?”
Yuhwa looked down at Lin, who was running towards her.
Pink fur.
Three tails.
On the outside, she looks like Sammiho, but Yuhwa’s clairvoyance cannot be fooled. There are six powerful energies stirring inside her.
It was definitely a gumiho.
Even Karami came with him. The blessing of the World Tree flows beside him. He was the one who was thought to be an elf.
I don’t know why the World Tree blessed him, but it felt like my stuffy insides had been cleared out.
It wasn’t that his supernatural powers had weakened or anything.
“Why did you come to see me?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t stand it. Can you please let go of that disguise?”
“How do you… … .”
There are not many people in the world who can see through Yuhwa’s disguise.
Yuhwa narrowed her optics and glared at Karami. Karami shrugged her shoulders slightly.
The disguise technique loses much of its effectiveness once its identity is revealed. Yu-hwa sighed and released the disguise technique.
Her flawless skin becomes wrinkled and her back becomes bent. The graceful woman disappears, leaving only the appearance of an old woman.
“Is it okay now?”
“Oh my, now I can live.”
“Hmm, I think it’s pretty cute.”
“Ugh… .”
I decided to stop joking because Karami’s expression was really bad as he was vomiting.
“How did you know?”
“Because I’m a slave trader. I’m confident in my ability to read people.”
You think you can see through my disguise just because of that?
What an extraordinary race of people.
Vigilance against Karami increases by two levels.
“It seems like you know more than I thought. That’s why you came to see me.”
I can tell just by looking at the nine-tailed fox that he brought along.
“I will take responsibility for this child and send him back to Baekungok. I will also remind the Hoyo tribe of Baekungok of my role. Thank you for your hard work.”
Yuhwa reaches out to Lin.
Lin, who had avoided the touch as if he was about to collapse, quickly clung to Karami.
“Huh?”
Yuhwa’s hand cuts through the air.
Lin, hugging Karami’s leg, glares at Yuhwa.
“I’m sorry, but this child is my slave.”
“What?”
“Lin is a slave to Zhuyin!”
“Rin… ?”
There certainly seems to be a strong connection between the two.
You really think he gave a name to a nine-tailed fox and even formed a master-servant relationship with her? Is there such a crazy guy?
“I worked so hard to bring this child to you, and now you’re sending him back? I can’t do that.”
“What the hell are you talking about! It already has three tails. If it grows any further, many people will be put in danger.”
“I don’t know about that, but I’m going to raise Rin until she becomes a gumiho. So I came to ask for help from Cheonho.”
His words were obviously sincere.
I plan to raise Rin into a nine-tailed fox.
At that moment, Yuhwa begins to see things through Clairvoyant’s eyes.
The pitch-black light that surrounds Karami.
The destiny granted to him.
Yuhwa knows what that light means.
“You are destined to die soon.”
He is destined to die, bearing all the misfortunes of a nine-tailed fox.
