RPPL C9
By the time Bipa arrived home, Muyun had woken up from a light sleep three times. He couldn't sleep properly. When he closed his eyes, Muyun was back in the crock. No matter how hard he pushed, the lid wouldn't open, and his strength was draining, yet no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't break the walls he was trapped in, couldn't close his eyes and rest. Bipa opened the gate made of bush clover and laid Muyun down on the wooden porch. The back that had accumulated body heat cooled as the…-

“So when should I come to pick them up?” At Bipa’s question, the owner, taking out his measuring tools, moved slowly with a changed attitude. He even let out a huge yawn. “Look at the kid’s state. He needs clothes quickly.” As Bipa, who was anxious for the child, urged him on, the owner glanced at Muyun with a sharp eye, then tilted his head and asked in a deeply lowered voice. “It’s not… that, is it?” “That?” “Ah, you know. They say kids have been disappearing…-

Leaving the sea of grass, they saw the entrance to a village bustling with people at its end. Thatched-roof houses with earthen walls, a large, well-structured house, and behind them, a tile-roofed house that exuded an air of dignity as it looked down upon the surrounding homes, were all tangled together. Unlike the destitute graveyard where Bipa lived, the village was thriving. “Do you remember where you used to live?” Bipa asked Muyun, his gaze upon the noisy crowd somehow displeased. Muyun,…-

“…….” There was no answer. I wonder if he really can’t speak. However, when it came to talking to himself, Bipa was second to none. He was used to just rambling on without expecting a reply. Usually, Saetani was performed with a five or six-year-old, but the child didn’t look that young. “Are you eight?” He shook his head. Bipa counted up, nine, ten. Only when he reached eleven did the child nod his head. He was too small to be that age. It seemed he had been starving for a…-

Bipa kicked Haesol’s knee. The part of the knee revealed by the kick was already dirty with dust. Haesol immediately frowned. “You’re going to sleep in a place like this? Are you crazy?” “I’ll take care of it. Besides, aren't you leaving now? Just get the hell out of here, and stop nagging.” “Bipa. Why are you so dishonest? I distinctly heard you say 'don't go' earlier.” So annoying. Bipa felt like snatching Haesol’s dokkaebi club and swinging it wildly. But Haesol used…-

He would converse with Bipa, yet he spoke down to him. He implied there was no need to converse with Muyun at all. As if to inform them that he himself was the sky, and Muyun was a being stuck to the earth. The pit of Muyun’s stomach turned ice-cold. A nobleman who showed unreserved intimacy to the have-not himself and Bipa. Up close, the difference was even more stark. Jealousy felt pointless, and the shame was intense. “Still, I should at least know your name.” “…It’s…-

Muyun is not Bipa. He didn't ask why she was here or try to soothe her. He crouched down in front of her and simply stared. The girl's guard was up against his ominous, dark red eyes. “What is it? What are you doing? Huh? Are you a shaman, by any chance?” “Not really.” He had never received a spirit, so he wasn't a shaman. Muyun reached out and unceremoniously snatched the girl's hand. It hurt, like a hand made of Siberian ginseng thorns. Feeling the pain as well, the soul began to wail…-

"You're being... really nice to it." When Muyun muttered sourly, Bipa stopped the hand that was stroking Suni's coarse fur. "Well, it's good-natured and cute?" "Cute?" Muyun's gaze was fixed on the fox. The more he stared, the more Bipa strangely tried to hide Suni, which only made Muyun's gaze sharper. Like a knot being pulled tighter and tighter, the tension wouldn't ease. "It's a kind-hearted spirit. It likes people, and it's just been a long time since it's seen someone who won't harm…-

The weeds, which had shot up like mushrooms after rain, had already grown to reach Bipa's waist, and it was clear that if he placed the child down, it would be buried within them and impossible to find. For Haesol, however, they only came up to his thighs. Haesol crossed the field as if parting waves. “Let’s go to the river. It would be nice if there was a boatman at the port with a big enough heart to take me.” “Haesol, it would be better for you to just run all the way to the…-

Turning his head, Bipa looked surprised for a moment. Muyun's gaze wavered. He swallowed dryly and added. “If… a secret I wish to bury arises in a season when there is no snow to dig up.” Was he seeking an answer, or was he trying to hide it forever? Even Muyun, the one asking the question, didn't know. Bipa was lost in thought for a moment. Muyun clenched his fists and waited for Bipa's reply. If he says to tell him, if he says to speak if I cannot bury the secret… “A secret must…-
