As much as it hurts to talk about how vicious a woman Seon Ga-eul was, it can be summed up in one simple line.

Young Min Ji-young.

As she is that kind of woman, I don’t think it’s a big problem to use this woman’s mana powder to swindle out those who try to eat the corpse.

Therefore, a very tight strategy must be planned using this woman.

The head of the company has already approved the progress of the plan, and all that remains is to implement it as planned.

In order to prepare in advance for the great shock that will occur in this country, I decided to meet with someone in Jeju Island in advance.

[Hello.]

“…I didn’t do anything wrong.”

Seogwipo City, Jeju Island, the living room of a spacious house with a clear view of the sea beyond the veranda.

A woman with tangerine hair, wearing only a white shirt and dolphin pants, who had just finished her first drink by boiling ramen in a nickel silver pot using a textbook called ‘The Essentials of Extraordinary Skills’, looked at me and was shocked.

[I didn’t come to execute you. Instead, I should die.]

“Hey, please explain.”

Ji Cheon-hyang put down the ramen, straightened her clothes, and knelt down before me.

Although she looks like an ordinary woman with an ordinary physique, she is a Class A person with special abilities who protects Jeju Island.

[Do you want it to be long or short?]

“Can I listen to it while eating ramen?”

[of course.]

I sat down on the sofa and turned on the 80-inch TV in front of the woman, the A-level hero who is the protector of Jeju Island – [Ji Cheon-hyang] Kim Min-young.

[Let’s talk while watching. first of all-]

Oh, yeah-

In the video, a shirtless foreign man is burying his neck towards a woman wearing a dress.

Just in case, I turned my head upward to the right, and surprisingly, contrary to what I could see, there was a sign saying that children under 15 were not allowed to enter, which made me even more embarrassed.

[Are the videos these days of that level? But do you watch things like that while eating ramen?]

“Oh, no. It’s a movie. What’s wrong with something like that appearing in movies?”

[I stopped by at a bad time. I’m sorry, I’m in the middle of watching a movie, but it’s a desperate mission.]

“Ugh. wait a minute. Just 3 minutes.”

Ji Cheon-hyang ate the remaining ramen in one go, placed the silver pot in the kitchen, and headed straight into the room.

Sreuk, sreuk, shoot.

“Next time you come, please don’t pop up to the window and knock.”

Ji Cheon-hyang, dressed in a suit after changing clothes, brushing her teeth, and straightening her clothes, bowed in a straight posture.

“If they tell me to die, shouldn’t I at least know the reason and die? No matter how desperate the mission may be.”

[You haven’t seen Project Jeju, right?]

“……Yes?”

[You didn’t check your email.]

I pointed to the TV, and Ji Cheon-hyang tapped her Taegeuk watch and scanned the TV.

“Ah.”

Unread mail, 999+.

Ji Cheon-hyang blushed and looked through her mailbox, and soon found an email that was written like a spam email.

“I will check it right away.”

[Watch and listen to the explanation. It’s simple. I am saying that you, who are a class A talented person and a hero, should play the role of a dead person.]

“Lyrics status…? Pretend to be dead for about two weeks?”

[okay.]

Ji Cheon-hyang looked up and down the message with a stern expression.

“…So to conclude, let’s pretend that I was harmed by the devil? And you’re going to catch the guys who are running for my dead remains, beat them up, and then use that to set up another trap?”

[yes. Well, it’s okay if it’s not you. But if possible, I wish you would do it. The recommender is me.]

“The guardian of Jeju Island has died.”

[That’s it.]

The guardian of Jeju Island was killed by the devil.

Naturally, the world will be looking for someone stronger than Class A, and there is one suitable talent for that.

[A gap period before an S-class female professor came to Jeju Island with her students. At that time, another S class will stay on Jeju Island and protect it. However, it will not be easy for someone who has just arrived to protect the large land called Jeju Island.]

“Well… no matter how S-class they are, there is no one who can protect Jeju Island as well as me.”

This woman.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is an S-class limited to Jeju Island.

The overall ability is A level, but in Jeju Island it is S level.

Lee Neung and the environment of Jeju Island made it possible for her to perform at the S level here.

“But if I die, even though public security is public security, won’t it just make things more unstable and the situation more complicated? I don’t even know who the devil that killed me is.”

[Everyone will know who it is. They’re going to pretend that an A-list woman who died on Jeju Island turned into an evil spirit and went on a rampage.]

“Who is it?”

[Seongaeul.]

“Ugh….”

As soon as Seon Ga-eul’s name was mentioned, Ji Cheon-hyang frowned.

“I was wondering why you came to see me…”

[You and that woman have a bad relationship. The justification is sufficient.]

“A cause is a cause, but being treated by that woman is a bit…!”

Ji Cheon-hyang pounded her chest with an aggrieved expression.

“It’s good to fake your death, but to be killed by that woman… Wouldn’t it be better if you were executed by a goblin?”

[Then does that mean you have committed the same crime as Nutcrasher?]

“ugh….”

[And if that happens, it could end up in a situation where I really have to kill you. Be quiet and take your medicine.]

I put down a capsule in front of Jicheonhyang.

[If you eat it, you will fall into suspended animation. To be honest, it’s as if you’re dead. When others see you, you’re alive but in a vegetative state without consciousness. There is no need to worry.]

“Don’t I have to listen to everything people talk about behind my back? I’m lying in a hospital room, in a coffin, and I might have to listen to all the strange things being said to me.”

[I think it costs money every time I get criticized. Since this project in Jeju requires a significant amount of capital, the amount you will receive will also be quite large. Above all….]

Whisper quietly.

Very quietly, I presented an item that would tempt Ji Cheon-hyang.

“…Is that really true?”

[okay. I don’t think you plan on staying in Class A forever. If possible, I should move up to S-class and defeat Armored Taejo somewhere other than Jeju Island.]

“But that’s not ability, it’s weapon….”

[Uh huh. Equipment is also a specification and ability. Please don’t say things like that carelessly.]

There is no need for further conversation.

I lifted the goblin bat and aimed it at Ji Cheon-hyang’s back.

[So, are you ready to be attacked by evil spirits?]

“Now, wait a minute. Before I die…before I faint!”

Ji Cheon-hyang held the capsule in her hand and pointed at the TV.

“I still want to collapse while taking care of my image…!”

[good.]

I pointed to the TV.

[I’ll pretend that you collapsed while practicing your abilities.]

Bah!

I swung the goblin bat mercilessly at the back of Ji Cheon-hyang’s head.

* * *

At that time, H Apartment Park in Jeju City.

Wow!

“Aaagh?!”

“What, what?!”

“Villain?!”

People who were playing tennis in the park suddenly startled by the sound of a window breaking and look around.

Pieces of glass falling from the sky were about to hit people, and those who were frightened closed their eyes tightly, protecting their heads.

“Uaaap!”

A uniformed agent on patrol quickly summoned his magic power and swung his fist in the air.

The wind blew towards the glass shards, shattering them once more, and blowing away the flower beds instead of people.

“Thank you…!”

“This way first! Wow, it’s not just glass that broke! It was broken by someone with special abilities!”

The agent quickly assessed the situation and checked the floor where the glass was broken.

From the first floor to the top floor, places where the veranda glass may break are –

“Top floor? Oh, that’s ridiculous! Over there, Jicheonhyang?!”

Kihahahahaha!!

A creepy laugh.

The scream that was like an ear-piercing scream sent chills down everyone downstairs, and those in the park watched.

“Um, what is that…?”

White fog flowing from the top floor.

It was as if a ghost had escaped, and the fog swirled around the top floor a few times and then disappeared.

“That floor is…Jicheonhyang…?”

“Try contacting Ji Cheonhyang’s Taegeuk Watch! Damn it, I won’t take it!”

“Oh, let’s go up! Come on!”

Coo coo coo.

The agents clenched their fists and hurriedly ran up the stairs.

On the top floor, after climbing dozens of flights of stairs, a strange and eerie scene unfolded from the hallway.

“Rain, villain…?”

“No, maybe it’s the devil…?”

” That’s ridiculous. So, Ji Cheon-hyang is the devil…?”

There were claw marks all over the place, as if they had been attacked by an animal.

The front door was open, and the agents risked their lives and carefully entered Ji Cheon-hyang’s house.

“Huh?!”

In the middle of the living room.

Ji Cheon-hyang was injured and collapsed.

Ji Cheon-hyang’s entire body was covered in blood, as if she had been fighting for her life against something.

“Well, that is…”

Next to the broken window, there is something written on the glass wall.

The writing appeared to be covered in blood, as if a serial killer was announcing his first murder.

-I’m back.

“Who, who….”

“Now, wait a minute…! Oh, that mark!!”

The mark engraved next to the phrase symbolizes a certain woman.

round circle.

Straight lines extending in eight directions.

And of course, red.

“[Witch of the Rising Sun]!!”

Aaaa!!

* * *

[The evil spirit of Seongaeul places a curse on the guardian of Jeju Island.]

The first start of Project Jeju.

[Ji Cheon-hyang falls, and the perfect defense is no longer possible. Then naturally… the hunting cats will start coming to Jeju Island.]

Collapse of public order on Jeju Island.

[Shall we spread the rumor? The Witch of the Rising Sun, the evil spirit of Sun Autumn, is looking for her body. His soul has become a devil, and he is looking for his ashes buried somewhere on Jeju Island.]

On the rooftop of a hotel in Seogwipo, I took a thermos and placed it on the floor.

[Those who obtain the Eldritch Life Vessel will obtain Grade A Mana Powder.]

I put my foot on the thermos, or rather the life vessel.

This world.

[A missing Class A psychic has been resurrected as an evil spirit. An evil spirit strong enough to attack the guardian of Jeju Island and put it into suspended animation.]

Those who drink the mana powder of the strong.

[Seon Ga-eul’s special ability, A-level ability… If you can make it your own by drinking bone powder, then of course you should come, right?]

You can make that person’s abilities your own.

[The evolution capsule is abandoned here, and there is no way the villains will miss it.]
