Chapter Index

    I went into the room with something to drink, and I was sitting in the perfect seat.

    As winter approaches, the best spot for this is against the wall in the kitchen.

    If you look at it that way, there’s no smoke at all… … .

    Well, it was strange to have no fuel in the first place, so let’s say that’s true.

    “What brings you here?”

    When I asked a question, Gumilmil smiled bitterly.

    “Isn’t that too obvious of a question?”

    “Humanity has such a culture.”

    Of course I know that, but there’s no reason to show up in a place that’s almost lost interest now.

    “You’re using strange language.”

    “The body of the first snow is human, but what’s inside isn’t human.”

    I decided to spill everything I know.

    The fact that it’s not a person is surprisingly important.

    While I’m at it, I’d like to leave behind some things you should know.

    Since I have been constantly emptying myself since I was young, I have no ego, so it is difficult to see it as something I really desire.

    “Do you know Eunjae’s name?”

    At my words, Gumilmil nodded her head coolly.

    “Anyone who doesn’t know the name of the god of martial arts is not a martial artist.”

    “Cho-seol is Eun-jae’s granddaughter.”

    Soo-oh looks at me from behind with a very surprised expression. Oh, I guess he thinks I’m someone with an important position in the Heavenly Demon Sect.

    “Granddaughter? No, but… … . As far as I know, Eunjae’s descendants are extinct?”

    He looks like he really doesn’t know. He just knows that something unfortunate happened and he disappeared.

    That’s because the configuration didn’t explain to Gumilmil about Eunjae.

    “When the construction team came, there were 11 people in total. Cho-seol’s parents, siblings, uncles, and cousins.”

    When her father’s name was mentioned, Gumilmil’s eyes opened wide.

    I guess I’ve never heard of it through any other route.

    Now that the opportunity has come, I want to tell you what you need to say from the first snow’s mouth before it’s too late.

    “He killed Cho-seol’s entire family and took her away to be used as a guinea pig to uncover Eun-jae’s secret.”

    That’s actually how it happened. It was manufactured as a single pill with the help of at least these two places: Woljedang and Jigwandang.

    “After that, the position of Cheonma was transferred from Guseongyong to this Cheonma, and Cheonma decided to use Choseol for Jeonyang.”

    And Gumilmil’s expression distorted as if she had guessed that this story was quite disgusting.

    “Cheonma, who found out from the information Eunjae left behind that he had made a contract with something, brought that something. In order to bring that something, he prepared a child named Choseol, who was most closely related to that something, and put that something inside her.”

    Ta-da.

    I pointed to myself.

    “It’s me.”

    Do you understand what I mean?

    At my words, Gumilmil’s pupils shook.

    “Why are you telling me that?”

    Yeah, I guess that’s a bit random, isn’t it?

    I don’t know about Gumimil yet.

    Right now, outside of Cheonma Shingyo. A place called Murim Alliance is trying to invade Cheonma Shingyo.

    They will do whatever it takes to get rid of me and my harvester.

    Even if the Cheonmasingyo wins, there will be damage.

    It’s not predetermined who dies in war.

    So I said it when I could.

    Okay, so now let me ask you a second question.

    “What brings you here?”

    Gumilmil blinked several times as if trying to understand what I was saying.

    “You don’t like that I came to you.”

    “I don’t have any feelings. I just wish you could be like Oh Myeong-seong? But shouldn’t you know Cho-seol’s story? I use Cho-seol’s body, so I have that much loyalty.”

    You could say that I’m working on raising her favorability rating in advance, in case she acts like Rebecca after I disappear.

    Rebecca seemed to have explored my memories, but will this one do the same?

    Will I be swept away by cold memories without knowing much?

    Or, before I leave and wake up again, my body may completely disappear.

    If they were coming now, I think they would burn them without leaving a single body behind.

    Still, you need to prepare in advance.

    “What the hell are you?”

    “I don’t use names because they’re not necessary. I only use the name of the body when I come out into reality like this.”

    I call it by many names, but there isn’t one that I like.

    And when asked about my identity, I deliberately answered with my name, because there is no such thing as an identity that I can reveal.

    Actually, I’m still searching for my true identity.

    “Yeah, I see. You’re not going to answer.”

    Gumilmil sighed softly.

    “I heard that you bring blessings to people, so I came to find you.”

    And after a brief pause, I told him why I was there.

    That means, someone came to find me at my request.

    “You’re a villager.”

    “That’s right. They couldn’t come to you, so they asked for help from someone like me.”

    Huh?

    “I’ve never stopped people from coming here?”

    “Since last year, this place has become a restricted area. Don’t you know?”

    impact.

    The reason why people don’t come has been revealed.

    Why on earth?

    Since when?

    Just in case, I have never forbidden you from searching Cheonma’s memories or looking back at scenes you have seen so far.

    I looked into it, wondering if it was the work of the Insimwon who was watching me, but they only nodded when the Heavenly Palace Lord asked them to prevent people from going that way.

    oh.

    Were you the lord of the Heavenly Palace?

    Ah, yes. Jo Jung-woo, the guardian of the Heavenly Palace, was definitely one of the important guardians, but in other words, he was just one of many guardians.

    I’m not at the level to hear everything the Heavenly Palace Lord does.

    Well, if something suddenly appears that can create a person like Cheonma, it’s not strange to limit it.

    The headquarters of the Cheonmasin Church itself is managed by the head of the Cheon Palace, so it is a restricted area. If it was said that it was restricted because it was a place where the Cheonma was close to, the other heads would have understood.

    I thought they were harassing me at Woljeongdang, but I guess it wasn’t just there.

    “Let’s go right now. Is there anyone sick?”

    I stood up from my seat.

    People are looking at me like I’m weird, but how could I miss the opportunity to make a harvester?

    “My leg was completely crushed when the load I was piling up collapsed on me while I was working. Can you fix that?”

    That’s what I’m asking.

    “Haven’t you seen how Cheonma got better?”

    “Yeah. Actually, I still don’t know how a man became a woman, and if that’s who I am.”

    Is that so?

    Let’s briefly cross-reference the memories of composition and obscurity.

    Ah, I see. Eunchun used the Heavenly Demon Singong to stop them for a moment, but was killed by Oh Myeongseong’s Absorption Technique.

    And they looked outside to see if there was another attacker.

    Out of their sight, the composition descended downwards.

    And then, a little later, suddenly, people started walking and running down the broken building. I guess they felt some kind of energy that I couldn’t feel.

    And then I saw a huge purple light obliterate the composition.

    It means that I saw it after the Heavenly Horse was resurrected.

    “That’s right. Go and see for yourself and you’ll know.”

    Gumilmil’s worries were short and his decisions were quick.

    “Let’s go.”

    So Gumilmil and I went out. I stopped going and looked back.

    “So-o.”

    “Huh? ”

    “Just do what you want without worrying about what others think.”

    You still look like you don’t understand what I’ve just said. It makes sense, since you’ve never thought about a monster swapping bodies.

    Half of the expression is filled with fear.

    So, I left her alone, meaning to follow if you want, and to stop if you don’t want to, and walked along with Gumilmil.

    “You’re raising him pretty badly.”

    As soon as I went out the door, Gumilmil spoke to me.

    “Is that so?”

    “I’m an outsider, but didn’t that kid hear that you weren’t originally a first-timer? Couldn’t you have been a little more gentle?”

    Be kind… … .

    “Mr. Gumilmil. Should I be kind to you?”

    I asked with real curiosity.

    At my words, Gumilmil stared at me intently and then avoided my gaze.

    “I’ll close it. Right now, I feel like I’m standing in front of the gates of hell that shouldn’t be opened.”

    No, even though you said it was a monster, isn’t that a bit too harsh? It might be because you talked about the first snow when you came here earlier.

    But I had to tell this story someday.

    I didn’t think about it in the first world, but I learned from Rebecca that if you can, it’s better to do what the first snow should do.

    It seems like they’re mixed.

    There was a brief silence.

    And then suddenly Gumilmil called me.

    “First snow. Soo So-jo is coming.”

    So you decided to follow me in the end.

    I nodded and continued forward. So-oh was faster than me anyway. And by a long way.

    And soon after, Soo-oh joined us. I thought he was following me, but he suddenly grabbed my arm and stopped me.

    “Let me ask you one thing. Has the first snow been the first snow so far?”

    I nodded, thinking that it might be odd to use formal language, but it was understandable if I felt a little awkward.

    “That’s right. The owner of this body had no ego in the first place. He was raised not to think, so he was alive but dead.”

    “Let me explain in detail,” Soo frowned and nodded.

    “Okay, then that’s fine.”

    Back to informal speech.

    I don’t know what he was thinking, but Soo kept urging me to go again, so I started walking again.

    And after arriving at the village, we headed straight to the place that Gumilmil had guided us to.

    Of course, soon after entering, Insimwon joined in. Gumilmil frowned when he saw Insimwon, but Insimwon only said one thing.

    “I have no intention of interfering with your actions.”

    Gumilmil looked at Insimwon’s hair and guided us with an expression of understanding.

    And the western outskirts.

    We arrived at a place where the houses were gradually becoming shabby and groaning could be heard. The air was filled with a strong smell of medicine and there were people lying around everywhere.

    Most people just have a rash or some scratch or something, but this one didn’t.

    A legless man lies there, his whole body drenched in sweat, while a woman of similar age looks on with a wistful expression as she looks after him.

    And he was the first to spot me and made a surprised expression, then he saw Gumilmil next to me and hurriedly got up from his seat, but he staggered and fell.

    “Cheer, Lady Cheonnyeo? And Lord Seonggo!”

    I walked up to the man and helped him up.

    “What are you doing to the patient! If you make him sit like that, he’ll bleed!”

    A man who appeared to be a doctor came running from behind. His leg was cut off, and the wound hadn’t healed properly, so if it continued like this, it would burst.

    I tell the man this.

    “I’ll give myself to you, but later, when you’ve finished everything, I’ll take everything you have. How about that?”

    Whether you are unconscious, dying, or alive, I know that you will definitely hear these words and definitely be able to answer.

    He agreed and I poured myself into it.

    The man swelled up and then hardened like porcelain, then slowly broke apart and a man came out.

    His hair has turned purple and his skin is pure white, but it’s still him.

    The man, who had been looking at his own body several times in surprise, soon noticed me and tried to bang his head on the ground, so I grabbed his shoulder to stop him.

    “You showed me kindness then, so no need to say hello.”

    He’s one of the villagers who took me out before.

    But good intentions turned into evil.

    Well, what can I do?

    I was unlucky.
