As soon as I confirmed that she was Lim Jisoo, I scanned our surroundings. If Bae Jaemin appeared here as well, we’d be in terrible danger–we’d be completely trapped.

At that moment, Lim Jisoo spoke first as her eyes followed my gaze, “Are you searching for Jaemin-ie?”

“……!”

“He doesn’t really need to be here. I’m here, after all.” With that said, Lim Jisoo flipped the dagger into the air. The dagger coiled around her neck like a fish before rising into the air, wings spread as it aimed its blade at us.

I thought that dagger might be the same one that neutralized Seo Dawon. As they folded and flapped, the dagger’s wings looked similar to the one I saw in my first [Vengeful Ghost Memory].

At the same time, a terrible thought crossed my mind. If the dagger impaled its target with its wings folded and unfurled them from within the target’s body… then it wouldn’t be easy to remove that dagger.

‘The thing they couldn’t touch even after Dawon-ie fell… It’s probably…’

Lim Jisoo burst into laughter as if she thought my intense stare towards her dagger was amusing, “I heard you revived Seo Dawon–it seems you know a lot about his situation? How he died and all.”

“……”

“You’re right. I broke Dawon’s spine and sealed his magic with this.”

“……”

“Since then, I’ve been using this as a ‘lucky mascot.'” Lim Jisoo smiled as if she were making fun of me. Simultaneously, Woo Ragi’s arms wrapped around me even tighter.

Startled, I looked at him; Woo Ragi was smiling up at Lim Jisoo. However, that smile didn’t hide the Swordsman’s bloodlust.

“I’ll make a prediction.” Woo Ragi hurriedly aimed every point of his [Echoblades] at Lim Jisoo. She still had a grin on her face, but, when he fanned out his [Echoblades], she responded by summoning a long black staff.

“You’re going to die today—intestines all torn apart from that ‘mascot’ of yours.” Woo Ragi’s smiling face was simply blinding. It was so beautiful and vicious that it almost made me forget his normally sullen and sour expression.

Lim Jisoo twirled her staff once before leisurely mocking us, “Omo~ But you’re so scared that you’re shaking.”

“Didn’t we tell you? Your younger brother also died while shaking and scared.”

“……”

However, when Woo Ragi talked about her brother, her leisurely expression crumpled into something more ruthless.

Her eyes gleamed as she glared at Woo Ragi. “You….”

She was about to say something, but Woo Ragi activated his skill first, “[Hundred Blade Heavenly Flower].”

After invoking the skill, Woo Ragi covered my eyes with one hand as if he were blindfolding me.

Even through his makeshift cover, I could feel intense light exploding in the near distance. The roar of what seemed to be countless meteors falling in all directions made me block my ears as well.

Meanwhile, I could still clearly hear Lim Jisoo’s evil voice ranting at us, “I knew it was you bastards! You sons of bitches! Where did you bury my brother?!”

“Bury him? Did you think we’d hold a funeral for him or something?”

“…What?”

“We just casually melted him down into medicine. Because it’d be a bother to do much else.” Woo Ragi didn’t waver and laughed when Lim Jisoo’s bloodthirst escalated, “I remember having a lot of fun since he kept begging us to save him–that he’d do anything to live.”

“……”

As I stayed obediently in the Swordsman’s embrace, I felt an unsettling aura that made the fine hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

“Ha. Haha…. Fine. Now that I think about it, maybe he’s alive as a zombie right now since he died with so many regrets,” Lim Jisoo said.

“Don’t you dare compare your brother–a human trash that’s better off dead–with a high-quality person like me.”

“……”

“Just look at my face… It’d be a loss for the nation if I were to die.” Woo Ragi chuckled.

His brazen tone was so similar to that of Seo Dawon, I couldn’t help but relax. Those two were truly close friends.

However, that moment of levity was short-lived. Soon, a cold wind blew at us. Woo Ragi shut his mouth and leaped high into the air.

And that cold feeling–the feeling that something was freezing rapidly–continued. As he leapt, Woo Ragi uncovered my eyes; only then could I see what was happening.

“This is…” The scene in front of me did not instill confidence in me; I couldn’t believe Woo Ragi was so blatantly taunting her. I had no idea what she’d done, but Lim Jisoo had frozen all of the [Echoblades], except for the one in Woo Ragi’s hand. They were unable to move, as if they had been nailed together.

Lim Jisoo’s hair had turned silver; as she swept her hair away from her face, she looked at me, “Necromancer, can you bring any dead person back to life?”

“……”

“Can you save my brother as well? Then I might spare you from Woo Ragi’s fate of getting demolished.”

My hands trembled at her formidable power–she had changed the weather in our immediate area from no precipitation to sleet. But, somehow I managed to hold myself together. I bit my lip, “Your brother isn’t at the level to sign a contract with me.”

And before Lim Jisoo could respond, I quickly summoned, “[Woo Ragi].”

“…You.” Woo Ragi tensed, sensing something was amiss. However, soon, the force behind the dummy’s arms weakened, and we descended. He didn’t let me fall and crash. Instead, after that momentary weakness, he held onto my body with a stronger and more robust force.

The dangling hair tickled my cheeks. When I looked up, a fully corporeal Woo Ragi was staring down at me. At the same time, I felt a sharp pain, as if someone was slitting my stomach with a knife. I kept eye contact with Woo Ragi, carefully composing my expression and hiding my frown.

‘So, I feel pain if I summon servants simultaneously.’

However, despite the ominous pain, I made the right choice to summon Woo Ragi. After all, the summoned Swordsman was much stronger than his [Dummy].

The blueish aura that surrounded the [Echoblades]–an aspect of Lim Jisoo’s summoned snowstorm–disappeared, and the swords were able to move freely again. Lim Jisoo’s expressions, oscillating between surprise and frustration, made it clear that Woo Ragi’s abilities in his summoned state far surpassed what he could accomplish while possessing a [Dummy].

No longer trapped by a thin layer of frost, the [Echoblades] aimed at Lim Jisoo again; she, in turn, produced a gargantuan shield over her body.

“I can’t believe it…” Lim Jisoo murmured, astonished.

Woo Ragi opted to ignore her and looked blatantly at my face. Lowering his voice to a whisper, he asked, “…Hey. What the hell did you do?”

Swallowing the blood crawling up my esophagus, I shook my head, “First, we need to deal with Lim Jisoo…”

Woo Ragi’s expression darkened, but he soon sighed briefly and grit his teeth. “…[Heavenly Annihilation Blade].”

He began to use more and more powerful skills.

However, my body had already deteriorated by that point. I buried my face in Woo Ragi’s arms and eventually spat out the continuous tide of blood coming up.

I immediately felt Woo Ragi’s body flinch. I knew I couldn’t hide the scent of blood at point-blank distance, but I had no choice. I didn’t want Lim Jisoo to know about my condition.

Though I regretted spitting blood on my clothes, fortunately Lim Jisoo was none the wiser. She was busy frantically defending against the [Echoblades].

“…Make sure to capture the Necromancer alive!” She shouted.

“Yes!”

Even though Woo Ragi was summoned and had access to his more powerful skills, the situation didn’t improve that much. Lim Jisoo’s men had somehow surrounded us without us noticing and joined forces with their superior.

“[Temptation].” Lim Jisoo’s skill shot us all into darkness.

Woo Ragi responded by keeping quick on his feet. However, his movements and attacks were still quite restricted, as he had to carry me in his arms.

“Nnngh… First, how about getting out of here? You can hide me, and…” I suggested, cautiously. And Woo Ragi…

“Close your mouth and shut up.”

“……”

He snapped at me through gritted teeth. However, the hand that held the back of my head against his chest was so soft and surprisingly gentle. After firing off a few more powerful skills, he began to distance himself from Lim Jisoo and her horde as I had suggested.
