Chapter 70

"Well, it's all superstition…"

"But you said your grandmother was a mudang."

"Apart from that, I don't really like that kind of shamanism."

Chandeul looked like he was sick of it, despite having claimed he had certain vibes. Sajun tried to explain it with logic.

"It's similar to how the son of a fried chicken place family wouldn't like fried chicken so much."

"Grandmother Samsin is the deity who protects children. You know, kids don't get hurt easily even when they fall from high places, until they're 11. They say it's all thanks to Grandmother Samsin's protection. That's why they give offerings to her until the child turns 11."

"11…"

Myohan couldn't recall when he had heard about it. He frowned, but then Jagyeom gave answer to his question. He moaned deeply and said,

"…That's when I started changing into a rat."

"Oh."

Myohan could then remember what Jagyeom had said. He had started changing into a rat around his 11th birthday.
