Subdued Soul Chronicle

Chapter 175

Chapter 175

Zaha climbed the stairs and headed to the back of the Hwarangs Hall. He entered one of the several annex buildings that were being managed by the Hwarang troops.

Seol Young knew what he was planning on doing even though he had never gone inside.

Archives?

Right.

While pointing to the records all over the place, Zaha asked,

Do you know what this is all about?

This is a summary of the cases that the Hwarangs have resolved until now.

Before going to investigate the evil spirit, Jin Rim brought out an old record of the Hwarang troops and read them to him.

They said they wanted to find the records of the incidents quickly, so they were organized by their year, right?

I do not remember them being this clean. It seems like Jin Rim did a lot of work.

Zaha found a key in the corner.

Anyway, Seol Young-rang. This archive contains more than just case-solving records.

Um?

Instead of answering him, Zaha unlocked the door with the key and went inside. Again, it was full of records, and they were all sorted by year.

Seol Young asked,

What is this again?

Unsolved ones.

Zaha said,

A case that had to be closed because the answer couldnt be found. A case that had to be stopped because the victims vanished or the investigation had been given up. Or just a story All of those.

And he began to skim through them from the recent logs and went back.

And then he stopped at a certain spot.

I knew it was this.

Seol Young approached and looked at it.

A man living in Shihui County met a woman on the street and married her. But the attitude of the woman was different from that of normal people.

Terrified of that, the man joined forces with several others to kill her and they buried her in the mountains.

But the woman dug herself out and rose up to kill the man and the villagers

In the very next paragraph, Seol Youngs gaze stopped.

The womans name was Mita. However, after that, she disappeared and couldnt be found anywhere.

It was clearly written as such.

It is the same with the 6th Wonhwa whom we think is the God of Cataclysm. The names also somehow overlap, but

But they have one more thing in common. A woman who suddenly appeared caused a bizarre incident and then vanished.

Zaha said while finding a brush and paper to copy it.

I thought the fact that the evil spirit had both signs of the present and the past might be a change in eras. And it seemed to be right. She also appeared after she was no longer a Wonhwa, too.

Then, of course, it was right to look for it among the unsolved cases.

If it had been resolved, she shouldnt have reappeared.

Seol Young finally understood Zahas thoughts.

Then maybe you can find more if we search?

Maybe?

And the two began to rummage through the records.

And going back to the past, they brought out more things.

There was a certain shopkeeper selling mirrors around Wang Gyeong.

When he looked into the mirror, he saw a beautiful woman instead of his reflection, and the person said the womans name was Mita.

People rushed to buy this mirror. However, all of them were found dead the next day.

Accusations came, and the merchant suddenly disappeared before being caught.

While this record remained

A new maid entered the house of Lee Byul Chun, and she was very beautiful. A fierce fight broke out between the master and the servants over this maid, and dozens died that night.

The maid named Mita disappeared that day.

There was also a record like this, and

A strange shaman appeared in the palace. This shaman held a golden stick in her hand.

The golden stick was known to have the ability to revive the dead, so it was said that it was the same as the legend in the past.

The people of Gun Hyun worshiped this shaman called Mita. But after she left, the people died in a horrid manner and began to go insane.

That was what the records said.

Over the past 100 years, there have been sightings of a strange woman named Mita haunting people.

I should have known this

Zaha mumbled.

She appeared so many times in the past, and it even got recorded, but no one knew about it.

Even we found out about it just now.

Isnt this the clothing of the Sun and Moon troops? Why do I have them on me?

I want to ask you the same thing. Why are you wearing them?

It was like he was possessed by something. Then the two of them walked around the building, only to stop again. The front yard was noisy.

Baek Eon, Song Ok, and Hyo Wol were talking to someone, and the moment Seol Young saw the person they were talking to, he was shocked.

Baek San.

In the form of a general with red armor and a red cape, he was laughing while being around his son and disciples.

Teacher!

Oh, if it isnt the sub?

Baek San slapped Seol Young on the back with a laugh.

This guy! How dare you go out of the White Tiger Troops saying you dont like it, and then call me Teacher now?

Seol Young was shocked.

Uh? Me?

Baek Eon laughed.

Father, if you say such things, Seol Young might head to the corner and cry alone. He is just getting used to it.

Baek San laughed again.

If you wanted to come back this fast, improve your skills quickly. Losing a bet on drinking and changing the troops! The Hwarangs will make you the first one to do it! Right, Governor?

.?

Zaha looked at all of them.

Then, after meeting His Highness, we should listen to how our Seol Young has been doing. Come on, kids.

Yes.

Baek Eon, Song Ok, and Hyo Wol followed Baek San as they winked at Seol Young and stuck their tongues out.

And then they noticed someone walking across the street and stopped to greet them.

The person was Zaun. The person she was with was wearing the robe of the Golden Ring troops.

No?

Seol Young looked at Zaha.

His face was becoming weird, and after everything that had been going on, this Hwarang seemed to be his dead brother-in-law.

The couples conversation could be heard.

I really wanted to handle that work

Right. Let us do what you want, wife.

Zaun was so engrossed in their conversation that she didnt see Zaha or Seol Young. She was just looking at her husband the whole time and only looked back after she entered the Hwarangs Hall and vanished.

How

Zaha mumbled.

The situation was so absurd that even his painful memories of his brother-in-law seemed to have changed.

Seol Young-rang, are we dreaming together?

But this isnt a dream

It was real.

Everyone was calling Zaha the Governor and Seol Young his assistant. While they were walking as if they were possessed, it was still nice to see all of them now.

Great Heavenly Pavilion Head!

Seol Young and Zaha hurriedly ran.

How did this happen? All the people killed by the God of Cataclysm are still alive!

And with her reading the heavens, she must have something to say about this change, right?

Then they stopped at the pavilion, but then

Governor! Aide! What stupid trick are you trying to do by destroying the shrine?

Uh?

What? God of Cataclysm? If these two are put together, you two would be that!

She passed by and sneered at them.

When Jin Rim said he was quitting, I should have acted more to stop him!

.

Seol Young and Zaha were shocked as they watched her leave.

That made it clear.

Zaha spoke,

I dont know how, but this isnt the world we used to live.

It seems like a world where the God of Cataclysm didnt appear.

Despite saying that, they couldnt believe it.

But that was the truth.

The two looked at each other, shocked.
