Episode 82
Episode 82: The Hungry Mansion (6)
The items I took out were salt, red beans, and several large candles.
“Yes, it’s an Eastern tradition. By combining these, you can create a basic exorcism barrier.”
“Okay… … “I see.”
The corner of Heo Sang-hyeon’s mouth twitches. Are you laughing at me? You’re working hard to control your facial expressions.
It seems like I know what I’m trying to create.
Although I said out loud that it was a basic barrier, this is really a barrier that is the most basic of basics.
Even people without magical abilities can make it, but it is a beginner barrier that is less effective. He said, trying to suppress laughter.
“Is this okay…?” … ? I’ve seen other solvers create similar barriers in the past… … He failed.”
“Well, just watch.”
And one more thing.
A necklace with a large metal disc.
The round metal disc is decorated with complex Sanskrit characters and patterns symbolizing the Big Dipper.
It is too large to be dismissed as a necklace, but it is an item made to be worn around the neck anyway.
It is an incredibly valuable item. My hands were shaking slightly when I handed this to Heo Sang-hyun… … .

It is a thousand times more important than a legendary sword or a magic wand.
An ancient god’s famous sight to ward off the terrible nightmares that come every night. Now I can’t sleep without it.
I couldn’t bear it anymore and eventually added a word.
“Because it is a very precious item. “Never lose it or break it.”
“what is this?”
“If I begin to form a barrier in earnest, the ghosts will rush in.”
“Does this keep the ghosts at bay?”
“what… … “It’s better than nothing.”
Heo Sang-hyeon looked at the ancient god’s famous scene with a skeptical expression.
‘I doubt it.’
But there is no use looking at it that way. It’s actually an item that prevents possession.
Perhaps because he thought there was no harm in wearing it around his neck, he eventually hung the ancient god’s famous mirror around his neck.
“I feel a little strange.”
“It’s probably because of sensitivity.”
It is not just a decoration.
Since it is an artifact that emits magical power on its own, a person with sensitivity like Heo Sang-hyun can sense the feeling.
“Now let’s get to work.”
We sprinkled salt and red beans in every corner of the living room, set up candles, and lit them.
Heo Sang-hyun is still following me around with a suspicious expression on his face.
“Before, a ghost suddenly attacked me from behind.”
Even though you said that, you probably have a different purpose.
As the number of barriers increased, the atmosphere inside the living room changed.
Woooooo… … .
In a more sinister and dangerous form.
The magic power fluctuates, and the ghosts howl.
At the same time, Heo Sang-hyeon also begins to look increasingly anxious.
‘It’ll start to move slowly, right?’
The barrier is almost complete.
Just add two more candles and you’re done.
However, I intentionally delayed and took my time at the last moment.
The goal is not to complete the barrier.
In the first place, I have no intention of completing this barrier and subduing them.
Moreover, as Heo Sang-hyeon said, attacks usually begin before this barrier is completed.
[System: The ‘Enhanced Vigilance’ trait is activated.]
The [Enhanced Vigilance] trait alerted me to approaching danger.
“You’re here.”
Woooooooo… … .
At that moment, the air begins to stir.
Something blurry comes from beyond the wall.
bubble? performance? Fog? Human shadow?
Like dust in your eyes?
It is a surreal mass that is like a stain that has been rubbed incorrectly in this space and reality.
They are strange creatures that are difficult to explain. A spiritual being that exists solely through emotions, thoughts, and magical power.
Among the ghosts that flocked to this mansion, the strongest and most poisonous appeared.
I aimed my butcher’s hook, trying to focus my attention on the grotesque writhing creatures that seemed to oscillate between reality and non-entity.

[The ghosts living in the mansion were angry. Their tangled thoughts and strange will try to penetrate your mind. Concentrate your mind.]
Oh, get out of the way so I can’t see you!
[System: Attempts to resist mental erosion with the mental strength stat… … Mental strength test failed.]
‘Damn, I wasn’t even expecting it.’
– Let’s be together… … . Speak your desires… … . Join us… … Let’s do it together… … . The door must be opened… … . The hour of destruction is approaching… … .
The voices of ghosts began to be heard.
Their flaccid spiritual bodies wrap around my body.
but.
[System: Activated by the exclusive attribute ‘Abyss Madness’. Nullifies the mental erosion effect.]
I’m so sorry!!!!
Golden sparks bounce and push away the ghosts.
– Wow!
The ghosts that had been united as one were split into several branches.
‘Well, it’s definitely effective.’
Even the existence of the abyss could not break through [the madness of the abyss].
This kind of trivial specter is lethal just by being splashed by the sparks it produces.
– what! What! This!
– This light! This pain!
It’s incredibly loud.
“Why don’t you tease me more?”
I laughed at the ghosts for a moment and lifted the butcher’s hook.
The gloomy magical powers that had spread like fog around the area began to fluctuate.
The ghosts are trying to create artificial physical force by moving the magical power accumulated around them.
The commonly referred to phenomenon of poltergeist.
As the decoration cabinet on one wall opens, the decorations and plates it contained float in the air.
The picture hanging on the wall, the poker hanging next to the fireplace, and a small round table appeared in the air.
“Can I just pick that up and throw it?”
– Woooooooooo!!!
Along with the sound of ghosts crying, objects floating in the air rush in.
[Distortion field]
I activated [Distortion Field] to protect Heo Sang-hyun.
Buuuuuung!!
The objects that flew in had their orbits bent and flew in the wrong place and got stuck.
bang! Kwasik! Wow!!
“Would it be an attack like that?”
You can also deflect bullets flying at close range, but this is too trivial.
– Gwaaaaah!
Suddenly, the ghosts swell and begin to scream.
“what?”
It is not the power of ghosts.
Someone is artificially giving power to the ghosts.
‘Are they slowly revealing their true colors?’
– Gwaeeeeeeee!!
The sofa placed in the center of the living room floats into the air. Man, antique leather sofa!
“Hey, that’s expensive! “Don’t touch my sofa!”
Oh, it’s not my sofa yet. Anyway, this will soon be my sofa!
[Evil gaze]
It is a curse that reduces the enemy’s mental power or influence by exerting the influence of the negative dimension.
Paaaaaa!!
Extremely refined purple magic energy is released towards the ghosts.
“Put that down, you bastard!”
Kigigigigigiggig!!!!
This is a magic that requires a power struggle using pure mental power, not an intelligence stat.
Anyway, my mental strength stats are at an average level.
There may be some corrections made to the intelligence and magic stats, but it’s a bit tiring to have such a fair battle of strength in a den of bastards.
I took some amulets out of my pocket and threw them away.
It is a perm amulet that has the power to banish evil spirits.
– Gwaeeeeeeek!!!!
The moment the amulet flew in, their energy was greatly diminished.
Kwazijijijik!!!!
I instantly raised my mental power and took away most of their influence.
Whioooooo!!!
The ghosts who were pushed out by the storm-like magic power and the unstoppable magic power fell into despair.
– Argh! stop! stop!
– You horrible bastard! Damn you!
“Who says you ghost bastards are such horrible people?”
They eventually ran away screaming.
I thought it was going to hit the wall, but since it was an intangible ghost, it passed through the wall with the same momentum and disappeared.
“Phew, I should have done this a long time ago.”
Only the precious decorations were ruined.
“What are you…?” … That’s amazing… … .”
It’s Heo Sang-hyun’s voice.
“Many people have come here over the years… … I’ve never met anyone like you. That’s an incredible skill… … .”
“what… … “This isn’t really that big of a deal.”
They thought they were creating a trivial barrier, but they seem to have been surprised to see that they were just pressing down on the ghosts with force.
As I said before, the barrier was not created to catch ghosts.
I looked up at the ceiling for a moment.
I can feel magical energy stirring beyond the ceiling, that is, on the second floor.
‘The location is suitable… … .’
I plan to complete this barrier and kill the guy hiding on the second floor with one blow.
I focused my mind and looked around.
The magic power raised by the ghosts around them has subsided.
Magical power that is so dark and rich that abnormal phenomena can be seen even by ordinary, non-sensitive eyes.
‘It’s a sumptuous feast.’
When I played computer games, I didn’t know what this felt like.
I was already able to control the magical power left behind by the being of the abyss.
The magical power floating around in this mansion can be made mine right away with minimal refining.
He took out a small glass bottle containing purified water from his pocket.
He slowly tilted the bottle, sprayed the purifying water on the butcher’s hook, and then cast a spell.
[Absorption]
Whioooooooooooooo… … !!!!
It is a magic that absorbs floating magical power.
The butcher’s hook began to absorb the magic power floating around with great force.
‘Of course, a vacuum cleaner is the best for cleaning a dirty house.’
The ghosts peeping outside the living room scream.
– stop! stop!
– What are you doing! Damn you!
– that… … That’s our magic power!
“Come on, it has nothing to do with you guys anyway, right? “Get away from me!”
It is not a magic that purifies or absorbs ghosts.
A magic that simply absorbs magical energy that has lost its owner and is wandering around.
Nevertheless, the reason they struggle is because no matter how strong the ghosts are, they cannot have any influence on reality without the magical power to project their thoughts.
‘Anyway, bugs don’t attract bugs to a clean house.’
I moved slowly with the butcher’s hook, which was absorbing magical energy, held out in front of me.
Although it was likened to cleaning, it really was like holding a vacuum cleaner and moving slowly.
Hwioooooooooo!!!
With its enormous output, it completely absorbs the magic power of the approaching area.
– Gwaeeeeek!
As the magic power in the rooms and hallways begins to disappear, orders hidden here and there begin to scream and surge in all directions.
The number is greater than the ghosts that attacked earlier.
Moreover, it rushed towards me with extreme venom, as if it were a cornered rat.
“yes. “You’re out, you bugs.”
This is no big deal.
The moment you try to respond to their attacks by raising your magic power… … .
[System: The ‘Enhanced Vigilance’ trait is activated.]
The [Improved Vigilance] trait detected a powerful flow of magical power that was moving irregularly.
someone.
Preparing an attack spell.
‘The location is… … ?’
Right behind my back.
There are ghosts pushing in from ahead, but they are not important.
I hurriedly raised my magic power and turned my head.
This is Heo Sang-hyun.
A distorted illusion appears on his face along with a bizarre smile.
He extended his hand towards me and activated a spell.
A hand stretched out towards me. Magic power is concentrated.
“[Psychic explosion].”
Advanced magic of the command line.
‘If you get hit directly from this distance… … Dangerous… … !’
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The grudges and hatred of the ghosts, and the spiritual bodies themselves explode, and an enormous shock rushes towards me.
