I’m the Only One Who Can’t See Ghosts

19 – The Ear King (1)

* * *

In this world, there is a word called “seowon” (oath).

A seowon is a word used when one vows to the sky to fulfill one’s own desire.

And there is a fundamental seowon in the soul.

It shall apprehend every soul as the queen of souls.

Gather all flames and illuminate the world.

Respond to the heavens and unfold its will on Earth.

This kind of seowon is called a “geunbonseowon” (fundamental oath).

Some people call it a “gwimun.”

In terms of heaven and earth, a person who completely realizes their fundamental seowon is called a “jisun” (enlightened person), and if they can manifest their fundamental seowon, they are called a “cheonseon” (heaven’s line).

+My oath.+

+My fundamental seowon.+

And even the evil spirits had their own fundamental seowon.

Because they also had souls.

No, they themselves were souls.

Most of the evil spirits’ fundamental seowon were similar.

To eliminate all negativity and make this world pure.

Negativity in breathing, negativity in eating, negativity in speaking, negativity in making smiling expressions, negativity in making crying expressions, negativity in loving and sharing warmth, negativity in hating and spreading violence, negativity in dancing, negativity in sleeping, negativity in babies wiggling their fingers.

All that evil will be purified.

Purify the humans who are the embodiment of evil itself.

Most of the souls referred to as demons had engraved such fundamental aspirations. And if they fully understood those fundamental aspirations, they were called Grade 1 demons.

By purifying countless humans and consuming their souls, and by continuously training, demons could manifest their fundamental aspirations.

Once they could manifest their fundamental aspirations,

Those demons would be called Demon Kings.

“My demonic gateway is being manifested.”

A soul that was once called a demon began to speak through the vocal cords. A Demon King could form a physical body capable of challenging not just simple Yin Gods, but also Yang Gods.

In other words, after becoming a Demon King, a real physical body exists in reality.

In a place once referred to as Bulgogi GP,

There was a man who looked at his own hands as if they were strange.

Surrounding him were numerous corpses.

The appearance of the corpses varied.

Corpses with their eyes gouged out, corpses with their heads split in half,

Corpses with their upper and lower bodies severed.

However, they all had one thing in common. Each and every one of those corpses had a facial expression captured by immense terror.

“Congratulations on receiving a new title of nobility.”

The demon with a physical body said.

Next to him was another demon with a physical body.

“All the humans who enter this area today will die!!! Especially the offspring of the phoenix must be killed!!!”

“Leave the bamboo forest to the both of us, and you devour the phoenix quickly to stabilize that realm. Well, Bamboo Forest, clouds fly at a fairly fast speed, so you might escape.”

The three Demon Kings laughed.

Seeing that sight, a man who had been hiding brought the muzzle of his gun to his temple and pulled the trigger. But the bullet did not fire.

“Grruh. Grruh. Grruh.”

The three demons looked at the man who survived. He tried to bite his tongue and commit suicide, but it was impossible. His mouth had already disappeared.

The man could not scream.

* * *

Gamlo confirmed that something unusual was happening.

The complete annihilation of the GP clan, which he thought would be the safest.

This was clearly impossible without the intervention of other Demon Kings.

“I thought it was just one guy coming for support. So I planned to quickly deal with the support and eliminate the newly born prince.”

It was the role of the test takers to hold onto the newly born prince until they could eliminate the prince who came for support. However, they did not anticipate that the prince would bring reinforcements.

There were rarely any cases of the princes uniting without the guidance of the prince.

Kamro looked at the man and woman who appeared in front of him and spoke.

They were all princes.

And not just any princes, but ancient princes who were famous for annihilating several cities.

The old man with bloodstained lips was called Guro, and the young woman with bloodstained hands was called Chahwa. They were both skilled princes who had killed tens of thousands of humans.

“Kamro, that’s quite a arrogant thought.”

“You damn b*tch! Do you dare to disrespect us?! I will crush your corpse to pieces!!!”

Just speaking was enough to mentally contaminate with the presence of the prince. It was unbelievable that such a prince would appear in two bodies. Kamro laughed bitterly and formed a pact.

“The tiger is going to prey.”

“Such arrogance. All the other Heavenly Lineages, except for you, know that they have gone to seal the cracks in the Great Divine Gate. Especially the main force, the Tigers, there’s no way they would be absent.”

There are traitors in the Celestial Realm.

Kamro sent out a bitter laugh and transmitted his voice.

+Lord Guju. Gather the survivors and escape from the Demilitarized Zone. All the test takers and support forces must escape together.+

+What are your thoughts, Kamro?+

At that moment, Kamro thought of one man.

That man was named Yoo Hajin.

+I will fight back.+

For the sake of humanity, it was only right for the Heavenly Lineage himself to survive and sacrifice everyone here. There was almost no possibility of the test takers surviving and becoming Heavenly Lineages capable of facing the princes.

“But that man wouldn’t make that choice.”

Therefore, Kamro decided to fight today. When Kamro didn’t flee, the princes tore their lips grotesquely and shouted.

“Open the Divine Gate.”

“Open the Divine Gate.”

Kukung- Kukung- A loud noise could be heard from a distance.

This kind of loud noise is often heard when things aren’t going well. For example, like me being an extra in a Michael Bay movie or being chased by an electric rat with two friends.

“Tsk, why are you scaring me like that?”

I kicked a pebble out of frustration.

Because I was feeling uneasy.

“Captain, it seems that there is a possibility of the Ear King appearing on our side. The celestial energy is very unstable.”

“You’re right. If he had appeared elsewhere, the test would have already ended. There is nowhere for him to escape.”

“What should we do if the Ear King appears? Captain…”

The children kept scaring us by saying that the Ear King had appeared.

So I quietly searched for the Ear King on Kaerowiki.

“I searched for no reason, damn it.”

“It says, ‘The Ear King is the pinnacle of actual demons… practically impossible to exterminate without a strategic-level supernaturally gifted individual… Recently, a small town in Spain was annihilated… If you meet him, you should commit suicide as soon as possible. This is not Neopolitan humor but practical advice…'”

There was nothing but a merciless tone.

After seeing that, I made up my mind.

If the Ear King appears, I have to run away like hell.

What can we Bronze Silvers do when only strategic-level supernaturally gifted individuals can exterminate him? It’s fortunate if the trolls don’t show up during team fights.

“Eek! Look! Over there!!!”

“Cough, cough. Cough. Ugh.”

“It can’t be, it can’t be, it can’t be.”

Suddenly, the children started having seizures.

What’s going on? Could it be that the Ear King appeared over there?

Will the man read the letter I wrote and delete the computer files for me?

I’m f*cking terrified, goddamn it!!

I stared at something that was approaching through the thick forest.

“What is that?”

It was a man. And he was walking around with his lower body exposed, showing off his dangling genitals. His arms and legs were so skinny that he probably weighed thirty to forty kilograms.

“If he has four Taekwondo black belts, I’ll treat him to rice cakes.”

Well, one thing was for sure, he wasn’t a demon because I could see him with my own eyes.

“Hey, you cowards, don’t be scared!!!”

Even though I yelled at them not to be scared, the children continued trembling.

“Hey, you pervert!!! These kids got scared because of you, f*ck!!!”

When I yelled at the man, he laughed as if it was amusing and said, “I’ve never seen a human who goes crazy like this. Are you so overwhelmed by fear that you’ve forgotten about the fear itself? Humans truly disgust me.”

What the hell? This naked man is completely insane.

“For someone who showed courage, I don’t sense any supernatural abilities from you. Alright. Let me remind you of fear again. When I melt and kill a few of those guys over there, fear will come alive again. Then I’ll slowly start devouring you.”

I took out the extensions from my waist.

The extensions I brought with me to fight against a powerful assassin named Guon suddenly ended up in the hands of a crazy person who appeared out of nowhere in the thick forest.

“Speaking of which, who is Bongchu? Ah, it’s that kid.”

Without saying a word, I aimed the electric shock device at the crazy person’s neck.

Since he’s also looking for Bongchu, this bastard must be one of the assassins.

Great. These extensions were bought to mess with you guys.

“Beep, beep.”

The pink girl shed tears,

Terrified, she made strange noises.

Just before the man’s hand touched the chick’s cheek,

I pressed the button on the electric shock device.

* * *

Unable to withstand the unbearable pain, Kwiwang screamed.

From Noble mtl dot com

“aaahhh!”

What the hell? What kind of ability can penetrate through Kwiwang’s defensive technique? He himself flies and is impervious to all human abilities. The ki waves of the Gongpa School, the fiendish waves of Ilwoloaakmoon, the true fire of Jinga, everything!

How dare these disgusting humans cause me this much pain.

At first, they gnawed at their limbs until their bones came out, and later, they gouged out their brain while still alive.

The woman who suffered that in the underground pit later begged to be killed and ate all her comrades.

With an evil laugh, Kwiwang looked back.

But that laugh soon disappeared.

“For God’s sake, don’t touch the chick, you bastards.”

The man had his knuckles wrapped and was in a boxing stance.

“Eighty-four punches.”

According to the rules of the old ladder, the terrifying barrage of blows continued at one hit per second. Each hit tore flesh and broke bones.

“Eighty-four punches, this technique is not like this…”

“Mudamudamudamuda!!!”

In just a few seconds, Kwiwang felt his life being threatened.

“This is ridiculous!!! I am a mollusk’s ectoplasm!!! Mollusks have hard shells!!!”

However, the man seemed to be completely disregarding such shells. He was accurately striking Kwiwang as if there were no such shells. It was a clear demonstration of the overwhelming difference in attack and defense, even for a high-ranking ectomancer like himself.

“Is it true that I, the Crown Prince, am lagging behind in the workshop carriage…?”

The pinnacle of humans. A supreme-ranking official of the Three Heavens and Earth.

Could it be that an unknown ability user of the Three Heavens rank is here?

The man’s attack momentarily paused.

At that moment, the Crown Prince smiled, revealing his toothless gums.

“Embodiment of Shadows. Poisonous Shells.”

As if to make the Shapechanger regret engaging in close-quarters combat, he opened his armor and poured out a cursed liquid. The man would dissolve without a trace.

However, the man seemed unfazed.

No, he seemed completely unharmed as if he hadn’t been attacked at all.

“Hey, because of you, the Crown Prince showed up and scared me!”

“Y-You, you are the…”

“Rubber-rubber thrashing!!!”

The man’s merciless beating resumed.
