Subdued Soul Chronicle

Chapter 197: Three Thousand Worlds (21)

The meeting room was so quiet that one could even hear their own breathing. Several leaders stared at Seol Young.

Summon the God of Cataclysm?

Eventually, Jin Rim spoke.

I have no idea what Seol Young-rang intends to do, but the High Governor said that eight years ago, none of the methods worked, and now you want to head out and settle the matters alone.

Yes.

Zaha said.

Everyone elses eyes turned to him this time.

That evil spirit comes and goes on its own, and it wields huge power. If we could summon it to this side, we thought the situation would be more favorable. It might actually work to a degree.

Zaha calmly explained it as if it werent a big deal.

The method I used in the past was only possible once, so I cannot do it again. But now that we have a fragment of her deceased body, we can try it again. If Seol Young-rang summons her, she will have to get dragged by us.

Everyone held their breaths and listened, not wanting to miss a single word.

Due to what happened to her eight years ago, the powers of the evil spirit havent fully recovered.

Zaha continued.

It is trying to gain its power back by causing these supernatural calamities and bringing fear into people, but we have blocked them all. So it seems to be trying hard to get stronger.

He looked around at everyone who was listening.

There hasnt been a major disaster yet, but once it starts to move in earnest, there is no turning back. So for me, it is now or never.

Like Seol Young-rang said, holding a peace ritual is an idea that no one has ever thought of. Also, that will not be the way the Hwarangs do.

Zaha spoke in a relaxed tone.

But I saw it with my own eyes. Through the peace ritual, the powerful evil spirits also gave up their obsessions and left. It is really effective, and I dont see any reason not to try it.

But High Governor.

Hwa Un, who was silent until then, spoke carefully.

I am only asking this out of curiosity, but isnt it possible to fail with it? The God of Cataclysm is definitely not one who

Right.

Zaha nodded his head.

Seol Young-rang, what do you think?

Of course, I dont think that talking with her will work either.

Seol Young replied.

If we had been able to communicate with her, we would have defeated her a long time ago. But she is not a normal evil spirit. Over the years, she has turned into someone like a demi-god.

Right.

Jin Rim nodded.

Even though we call it an evil spirit, it crossed the level of a spirit a long time ago. We dont call it a God for nothing.

But still, now we know its story and identity. I know the reason she exists. It isnt for nothing that there is a saying, Knowing the history of the demons and Gods can make you command them. Knowing their identity gives us power over them.

Seol Young continued,

Its power might be too strong, but a peace ritual can calm the spirit against its own thoughts. After strongly suppressing it, it will have no choice but to accept our words and eventually let go. That is the purpose of the peace ritual.

Jin Rim frowned.

That isnt normal.

Right. That is why I am telling you this now.

Seol Young looked at all of them.

Someone must stop her from escaping during the ritual. Are there any warriors willing to help with that?

Everyone went silent.

Seol Young started solving supernatural calamities to clear his name, but no one expected that to end with such a dangerous spirit.

Of course, it was natural that Seol Young also didnt expect it.

But he didnt seem afraidhe wasnt even trying to avoid it. Rather, he was coming up with countermeasures as if he had been waiting.

How could that be?

Was it possible that all of this was a conspiracy with the evil spirit to ruin the Hwarang troops? Depending on how one looks at it, it could seem suspicious.

However, the eyes of the leaders didnt seem to think that.

Were Seol Young-rang and the High Governor tracking the God of Cataclysm at the time when Hyung returned?

Was that why they wanted to see the Wonhwa Tower?

They recalled all that they had experienced or heard about. A lot has happened since then.

Seol Youngs gaze was now different from the first time he was falsely accused.

We, the Blue Dragon True Troops will cooperate.

Seo Geom spoke first.

We, the Red Vermilions, will cooperate too.

Hwa Un also said that right after.

I will cooperate.

Even Mu Won, who had to limp because of Seol Young, nodded.

But

Unexpectedly, Baek Eon, who should have agreed first, stayed silent.

He looked confused.

Then Baek Eon looked at Seol Young.

Our youngest has already made up his mind.

It was the same situation when he first set out to solve the supernatural calamities that were happening. Then, wasnt it their job to set aside their concerns and help him?

Baek Eon nodded his head.

The White Tiger Troops will also cooperate.

Then the entire Hwarangs have agreed.

Jin Rim said so.

Our Golden Ring Troops will participate in the ritual

He thought for a moment, and then he said to Zaha,

Actually, I was thinking about it too.

What?

Lets rest for today. If you come to the front yard with Seol Young-rang tomorrow, I will show it to you.

Jin Rim blocked any questions right then.

The leaders of each troop should talk to me.

Yes, Governor.

Baek Eon, Seo Geom, Mu Won, and Hwa Un gathered around Jin Rim.

It meant that he wanted the others to go and rest, so the two of them turned around.

Its not like they can make a surprise party for.

Zaha came out and said,

Well, the die was thrown.

Seol Young flinched.

He finally notified the others about the rebirth of the God of Cataclysm, and he couldnt help but be anxious at the thought of a battle in the future.

The sound of die only made him more nervous.

Do you have to choose such a thing to sound satisfied? What is wrong with you? I still feel my body throb at the blow I received from the evil energy.

Is that so? You are softer than you look. I didnt realize because I got healed.

Zaha tapped his right arm. It was a conversation without much thoughts, but

The moment they were about to talk more, it popped into their heads.

.

They had forgotten what they were even arguing about.

-Come in and get treated before your conversation gets longer.

The familiar face of another Zaun, who tried to heal her brothers injuries, came to mind.

Zaha also went speechless at the thought of it. The human mind is so strange.

It didnt matter much to him, and he wanted to come back home. The last time they briefly ran into each other, they left without regrets.

He wanted to come back to this world to put his mind at ease, but now that he had returned,

The world without the God of Cataclysm.

Seol Young lifted his head and looked up.

The sky over the roof of the Hwarangs Hall was blue. The more they looked beyond the clouds, the darker the blue clouds became.

Time passed differently there than here, and another us who should have come had never appeared. So even though it seems like a lie.

Seol Young mumbled.

What we went through was not a hallucination. It was real. And it existed too.

Right.

Zaha also agreed with that.

In front of the Governor, I said it was a dream, but no matter how much I think about it, it truly wasnt a dream. It was real.

Right? I understand why Buddhism speaks about the Three Thousand Worlds. Just the thought that there is another world like that and can give us comfort like.

Just then, the door to the office burst open. It was Mu Won. It seemed like he had been given an order by the Governor.

Mu Won looked puzzled at the two. His eyes looked unsure, but he still greeted Zaha.

High Governor.

Yes. I am going.

Yes.

Mu Won-rang.

Seol Young also greeted him.

Mu Won silently nodded and passed by.

As he descended the stairs, his leg was limping slightly.

Well, our interpretation isnt wrong either.

Zaha suddenly said,

The theory of the Three Thousand Worlds explains how vast the universe we live in is. There are billions of worlds just like ours. Doesnt this world suddenly feel small and insignificant, like dust? If the world is so small and insignificant, then how small will the person in it be? And how small will that persons heart be? Resentment, anger, and affection are so small.

Seol Young thought again.

Then, when he looked up, Zaha was walking down the stairs alone.

Seol Young quickly followed him.

Zaha glanced back and asked,

Why are you following me?

Because I am someone who depends on others, I hate the concept of dying alone. I need to do my part.

Can you not go there? Wont Baek Eon-rang come soon?

I will head to Mount Seondo anyway.

Seol Young responded coldly.

But before that, we have something to do. It is good that your injury has healed. For the ritual, we need you at your best. Maybe it just happened to fit right in front of the skull wall And Ah, right. I need to play GO a couple more times.

Zahas face contorted.

As if he didnt know what to say, Zaha stared at him with his golden eyes without saying a word.

Seol Young-rang, that isnt GO.

The next day.

Because of the words of the Governor, Seol Young got up early and headed to the Moon Palace.

He went to the Hwarangs Hall and asked the trainees, but they said the High Governor hadnt come yet.

He must have lost a lot of sleep because he lost too much in GO last night.

Seol Young thought to himself and asked,

Did the Governor ask me to come?

Yes, then. He will be in front of the yard right away. Go ahead. We will tell you when he comes out.

The troops were excited for some reason.

I get it.

Seol Young headed to the yard first. Since early in the morning, a buzzing sound could be heard.

Something black flew above the heads of the people.

What was that?

Seol Young stopped.

Then someone shouted,

What! I am scared! Go away!

Monk! Calm down and cross this way!

But can the poor and weak monk be there alone Ackl!

Seol Young immediately recognized the owner of that voice.

Wasnt that the monk who was almost killed by Sa Daham?

Monk Do Cheol!

He was so happy that he almost forgot that he was in the front yard of the hall and was shouting.

But why did the monk come to the palace?

Curious, he broke through the crowd and went inside.
