Chapter 24 – I Take Refuge (Namu) (7)

The being exposed itself for a brief moment and went into a craze. Every time it struggled wildly, the talisman burned more quickly.

“Woah.” Chi-Woo clicked his tongue when he saw the talisman getting charred black. It had been a long time since he saw a talisman burn so fast.

—Kuhuhhhhhhhhh

When the talisman finally turned to dust and scattered away, the being howled in rage. Ru Hiana shielded her ears from its ear-splitting shriek.

‘No. It’s all wrong…!’ Ru Hiana thought everything was over when she saw the stunned look on Chi-Woo’s face. The ghost shook violently and rushed towards them. With a surprised look on his face, Chi-Woo moved his hands quickly. He took out a new piece of talisman and stamped it on the rushing ghost.

Haaaaaaaaa!

From the talisman came a pouring path of flames, burning vibrantly in the air.

—Kiahahahahhhh!

A painful scream incomparable to the one before rang inside the pit.
