Chapter 41

Seo-ryeong looked at Seol, stunned.

Almost like she couldn't understand why Seol became so cold to her.

"Wh-what are you saying all of a sudden? Are you hurt somewhere, ahjussi?"

A person without a shadow.

If you want to find the clever, wicked Shades, you must first pay attention to someone like that.

The first thing Seol confirmed the moment she approached him yesterday was whether she had a shadow or not.

In other words, Seol had just been pretending to fall for the Shades's tricks.

He played the role of the naive but blunt man who was helping the pitiful woman with her injuries.

'As expected, a Shades did appear.'

Seol remembered the words of the magician dispatched for the barrier stone who registered his spirit containers.

- Ah, right. There's also been a troublesome issue that has arisen nearby recently.

- A troublesome issue?

- Some of the Adventurers who have come as support have disappeared...

- Have they gone missing?

- That has been the conversation internally. However, we would need some time to do a search operation since the Magic Tower is also in a busy period.

It was clear that the missing Adventurers were all likely killed by the Shades.

Seol continued to wait for an answer.

A few moments later...

Seo-ryeong... no, a Shades which had taken Seo-ryeong's form answered.

"Why are you acting like this, Seol... You're scaring me."

"What happened to Seo-ryeong? No... When did she die?"

Snap...

Seo-ryeong's face started to distort.

The white in her eyes slowly disappeared until they looked like frog eggs.

And then, a heavy, frightening deep voice came out of her mouth. It was like a demon had possessed her.

"Haha... You're pretty good?"

Turn!

Turn!

In an instant, all of the Venta and people faced Seol.

The Venta had crimson eyes. However, the people looked like mummies. They had all of their energy sucked out of them.

'So there was a reason why they only showed me the back of their heads.'

If Seol messed up, he could also end up like one of the mummies over there.

Seol activated his golden Eyes of Perception.

[[Shades: Shadow Black Spirit]

Rank: Rare

Estimated Level: 12~16

The Shadow Black Spirit has phased into the physical realm during the opening when the barrier stone broke down.

Not only is it clever and cruel, it is also cautious.

Individually, it is quite weak. However, if it combines with Venta, the Light White Spirit, it becomes quite formidable.
