RPPL C2
For a moment, goosebumps erupted as his hair stood on end, and Bipa shot up and backed away. Seeing that nothing jumped out, he thought he might have imagined it and breathed a sigh of relief. “How is it?” “It hasn't become a saetani. Probably…” Although there was a distinct and powerful energy, it wasn't one. Bipa waved his hands wildly around the crock. Whoosh, whoosh, with each wave of his hand, the energy thinned slightly. Examining the entrance, he saw that wicked…-

Belatedly, the government slaves began to put out the fire in the storehouse. Bipa and Muyun sat on the rubble of the collapsed inner quarters and watched. “Why aren’t those people questioning us?” Muyun asked. Bipa, who had been staring blankly with his chin in his hand, answered. “Curiosity is a luxury you can only afford when you have the time. When the immediate problem is too big, it’s bound to blind you. After they clear the storehouse, they’ll wonder how to rebuild this…-

RPPL C18
“Wh-what is this!” In the meantime, the government office slaves appeared one by one, screaming. Each held a sickle, a rake, or a pickaxe in their hands. They appeared with great vigor, but it was short-lived. As soon as the Goeigong raised its head from the wooden floor, they were startled by its enormous size and began to back away. The Goeigong was not a creature that originally held a grudge, nor was it a Dokkaebi; it was merely a monster. Yet, the fact that ordinary…-

Night fell. The moon rose. It was a new moon. Moreover, the fog was still thick. Muyun’s vision wasn’t dimmed just because one of his eyes was covered. However, Bipa, perhaps not fully awake, yawned and held Muyun’s hand as they walked slowly. They had just secretly slipped out of the house. “Which way should we go?” “We can check with the wound left on your neck.” At Bipa’s words, Muyun touched the nape of his neck. Sure enough, the skin was raised in a welt. Touching the…-

“I see. You must be deeply grieved.” Bipa offered his condolences slowly. As if spurred by his words, the lamentations continued. “He is a good child. He has never done anything to earn anyone’s resentment. How could such a tragedy occur? And my child is not the first. As you must have heard on your way here, half the village is filled with the sounds of wailing. It’s not just the children who are disappearing. An elderly mother, a wife, a husband, it doesn’t discriminate, hiccup.…-

RPPL C15
After three and a half days, they arrived at a tranquil village encircled by a meandering river. By the time Bipa and Muyun set foot at the village entrance, the sun should have been well up, but the sky was so overcast that it felt like dawn. A misty rain was drizzling down. Muyun's eyes traced the mountain range that unfolded like a folding screen behind the village. When it rained, you could see the mist surging up from the ridges. Watching the smoke-like mist flutter up to the sky on the wind, he…-

Bipa didn't answer. Unaware that Muyun was hiding and listening, he simply avoided the village chief's gaze. The chief's eyes, much like his bustling footsteps, were also hesitant. He looked at Bipa, then at Bipa's hands. "And besides, you too.... I remember when you first appeared in the village. How..." The chief, his hair frosted with white, shivered slightly as he said this. Bipa's appearance had been eye-catching at first, but now that it hadn't changed a bit from back then, it had become…-

RPPL C13
Muyun's fingernails had all grown back. A long time had passed since the broken nails fell off and new, pale ones grew in, yet Muyun did not leave. It wasn't as if anything special had happened in the meantime. The only change, perhaps, was that the small, palm-sized vegetable patch had gotten slightly bigger. The two of them lived like any ordinary farming couple, self-sufficiently. However, Muyun had grown a little. It seemed he had been thin and small from malnutrition, because once he started…-

"Hah..." Only then did Bipa flop down onto the ground. The pain was indescribable. The children seemed to be slowly waking up, but he didn't have the luxury of explaining to each one, sending them home, and comforting them. However, as soon as the children came to their senses, they staggered off somewhere and disappeared, whether it was their own home or not. Only Muyun, who was the last one left, stood tall in his spot. He looked at Bipa with a pale face, and when Bipa was about to collapse…-

The first place he looked for after entering the village was a large apothecary. It was only then that Bipa realized he hadn't brought anything with him. Still, he couldn't just turn back. He began to knock repeatedly on the wooden floor of the apothecary with his palm. "The sun has set, so go away!" A fierce yell came back from inside. But Bipa did not back down. "A child is sick. Please, come out!" "Is there only one or two sick children? If he's meant to die, he'll die, and if he's meant to…-
