Chapter 27 - Ghostbuster (11)
Chapter 27: Ghostbuster (11)
TL/ED – Enuma ID
At first, when the rampaging ghouls started dying to something,
the ranch staff thought that Kim Mi-ryeo, the owner of the workshop, had done something.
But they soon realized it was a mistake.
Е nǔ_m̂ а́. ìd
The situation had become far more horrific than the ghoul rebellion could ever compare to.
With their faces pale as death, the staff, terrified, pointed the smuggled automatic pistols toward the corridor.

“Gather up, everyone get together and get ready to fire!”
Clinging to their sanity, they formed a firing formation.
A plain corridor where nothing could be seen. But something was there.
“W-wait! I’m still- S-save me! Somebo-!”
Ėn um̆а̌.і d̆
A fallen staff member screamed as they were dragged into a side passage by something.
Crunch-Crack-!
A dreadful sound was heard, and red blood began to flow out from the side passage.
“―!?”

The staff could bear it no longer. To shake off the terror.
There was only one way. At the moment that thing emerged.

“Fiiiire!”
Bang! Bang-bang! Ratatat!
They opened fire toward the invisible thing that had been killing off the other staff one by one.
“Huh?”
But something was wrong. The bullets flew straight through the corridor. And then,
“Haaa….”

“W-what?”
One of the staff’s bodies was lifted into the air. Everyone’s eyes turned upward.
…The ceiling. It had approached them along the corridor ceiling.
“Aaaaah-.”
Before the scream could even finish, the staff member being dragged was shredded.
Crunch-

If a human body were fed head-first into an invisible shredder, it might look like this.
Blood and flesh were torn apart and scattered in all directions.

In an instant, the body lost its human shape.
One of the staff, driven by terror and fury, screamed.
“Aaaagh!”
He pulled the trigger toward the transparent monster clinging to the ceiling. …But-
Е̌ ǹ üm̊ а
Bang! Bang-bang- thunk.
The bullets bounced off, unable to penetrate the transparent monster’s body, and fell to the floor.
“…Grrrr.”
In the silence, a disturbing growl echoed.

Thud.
The shredded corpse, with some of the lower intestines still attached, dropped to the hallway floor.

And immediately after, the head of the staff member who had fired exploded and vanished.
They realized it. ‘That thing’ hadn’t come through the ceiling because it feared the guns or was at risk of being hit.
It had simply come through the ceiling because it didn’t want to get hit.
Maybe it was even… a kind of game.
“…Haha.”
“Aaaaaaagh!”

A hollow laugh came from the lips of the staff who realized the truth, and from the others, who still didn’t know what was hunting them, a scream of terror erupted.
They tried to run, but there was no escape.
In an instant, flesh burst, blood splattered, and they died.
It couldn’t be seen, but it definitely existed.
Was it beside them now? Behind? In front? Left or right? Above? Below?
“Gaaaah….”
Е nù m̌.a
Ah… it was in front of them.
Crunch-!

The invisible vampire, Grizzly, bit and killed the last staff member who had been in this place.
He shook his body from the sting of the sharp little pellets fired by the humans.
“Gyaaa~.”
Tilting his head, he checked the next direction.
Ë n u mа
He located the staff who were fleeing toward the exit.
Even without their uniforms, he could identify those who had worked here, just as his master had mentioned.
With the smell of the slaughterhouse.
“Haaa….”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Grizzly moved swiftly, seeking out the prey that reeked of both livestock and human blood.
Not a single one would be allowed to leave the basement.

A basement hallway scattered with the corpses of ghouls and staff.
Yo-han was in the middle of doing push-ups and squats there.
It wasn’t that he suddenly felt like working out.
It might not be of any interest to others, but-
If he met Si-on later without a drop of sweat and his breathing too calm, wouldn’t it look a bit weird?

“Hoo….”
Once he had worked up a light sweat, he stopped exercising and began walking again.
Obviously, I didn’t want to stick around because the corpses were disgusting.
I’m not a corpse lover or a psychopath.
Looking at them gives me a headache.
-Or so I thought, when suddenly, right in the middle of the path,
En̈ û m a
the face of a staff member, separated at the torso, appeared, dead with a terrified, resentful expression.
“……….”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
They were killed by Grizzly due to my order to kill them all, but aside from thinking it’s disgusting, I don’t feel much else.
They were people who butchered humans under Kim Mi-ryeo anyway.
I’m relieved, in fact. It’d feel gross if I ended up killing someone who was completely unrelated and innocent.
I hope I’ll only ever get tangled up with bad guys from now on.
Wе b̈n̄о̆ ṽēl̆ Е̇ n ŭ mа́
A ridiculous smile crept onto my lips.
…Well, not that I killed them because they were bad guys.
I killed them to establish an alibi for my own safety.
On the flip side, if they’d been innocent people completely unrelated to me, I would’ve still killed them all the same.

This might be out of the blue, but there’s a saying called Mencius’s theory of the goodness of human nature.
As opposed to Xunzi’s theory that humans are inherently evil.
Еṅǔ ḿ a . і ď
These two are often brought up like a hamburger and fries combo.
Mencius’s idea is a soft and gentle-sounding theory that says people are originally good.
But it can be interpreted in different ways.
Mencius once said this:
“If one lacks benevolence, he is not a human.”
The feeling of pity for others.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
If you don’t have the heart of compassion, you’re not human.
Humans are inherently good. So, if you’re evil, that must mean you’re not even human.
Mencius, after all, was a man who openly discussed overthrowing dynasties in front of kings.
“Humans should be good by nature… so why are they acting like such damn savages? …Strange. Are they even human?”
“Let’s overthrow the dynasty, kill the tyrant, and make someone who truly pities the people king instead.”
I sometimes think maybe the theory of innate goodness was created to gaslight kings into thinking they were virtuous rulers.
Е n̊ ũmа̄
In contrast, Xunzi’s idea that even black-haired beasts can become good through education feels a lot gentler.
Well, in the end, it’s like this.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
I walk through the blood-soaked path strewn with corpses.
If Mencius saw this, these guys and me.
He’d probably say… not human.
Still, let’s not get too depressed. Life is meant to be lived positively.
Е̄n u̇m̂а
Disqualified as a human? No, qualified as a beast.
Qualified as a Wizard.
I passed by the corpse lying in the middle of the hallway, its face twisted in unjust death, and moved forward.
If two beasts’ territories overlap and they go bam! into each other,

one dies, one lives.
That’s how it is.
Е n̄ u m̂а .i d́
Should I call it this side of the industry? It hasn’t been long since I stepped into the wizarding world.
But I get it.
Whether you meant to or not, once you’ve stepped into this world, you can’t afford to be half-assed.
If you’re half-assed, you die.
That’s why this, too, was my desperate struggle to survive against a government agency.
Clenching my fists, bending my knees, I kicked off the ground and ran.

Breathing heavily, I moved my arms and legs.
“Haa- haa-.”
Using the basement map I saw in Kim Mi-ryeo’s room, the central control room, I ran toward the exit.
As I neared the exit path-
“Yo-han ssi!”
Had she let the couples escape and come back for me?
Е̇n̈um̄_à
I had figured government agents would be arriving around now anyway.
Si-on spotted me running ahead and shouted.

“-!”
Good, now this is the decisive moment.
If I really have talent-
“Ru-run!”
Е ñ ů m̄ а̃
Now’s the moment! Explode, talent!
I shouted loudly toward Si-on.
“Ruuuun!!”
“Huh?”

KWAHHHHHHH-!!
A deafening boom echoed as the hallway wall shattered.

“Gaaaaaaaah-!”
Of course, it was Grizzly. After killing all the staff and ghouls, he waited.
and then appeared right on the cue I gave him, breaking through the wall.
He deliberately smashed his surroundings in an exaggerated way as he began the chase.
Bang-KABOOM-KRASH!
Si-on, who had been running toward me, immediately turned around.

Running beside me, she said,
“Yo-han ssi! Follow me. I’ll guide you to the exit! Hang in there!”
“Yes!”
I gained quite a bit from this underground workshop, but I’m sick of it now.
So let’s end it here.
That’s why…

A scene that would be disappointing to miss in horror movies with monsters and creatures.
The climax scene.

“GAAAAAA-!”
The chase scene with a monster!
Directed by Kim Yo-han. Starring Kim Yo-han and Grizzly. Special appearance by Shin Si-on.
Running, running, running toward the exit.
Е̂n̄ū m̂а.. i d̆
“Go up the stairs!”
Si-on said that and sent me up the exit stairs first, pulling out her pistol to buy time.
Seeing that, I grabbed her wrist and went up the stairs with her.
“It’s no use!”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“-?!”
Wait, this woman’s pulling a gun during a staged game of tag. She’s scary.
Ẅ é b̂n̂о̀vе l Е̇ n̈ũ m_а
Where exactly does she think she’s going to shoot our Grizzly?
Si-on quickly made a decision.
“Huh!”
Suddenly, my body was lifted into Si-on’s arms. With a deep breath, she leapt up the stairs in one go.
She kicked open the basement door.
And finally, we escaped the wretched underground.

Stepping into the sunlit grass, Si-on and I burst out.
And now, the monster that came from the basement into the outdoors would classically,
“Gya… gyagya… gyagyagyagyagya!”
Dissolve in the sunlight.
Of course, naturally, he returned to the grimoire. He doesn’t actually take damage from sunlight.
But since he’s an invisible vampire, it might be good to let the government agents mistakenly believe he’s weak to sunlight.

…More importantly, Grizzly’s acting is terrible.
Anyway, panting with a shocked expression, I looked toward the basement entrance, where Grizzly had just been.

Then, slowly and cautiously, with a trembling voice, I said,
“…The one that appeared at the university.”
At those words, Si-on flinched and looked at me.
“Huh?”
Е̇n̄ u ṁ а̂ .і d
Tch- maybe I shouldn’t have said that. Was that too forced?
You know how in movies there’s always that super obvious line dropping a plot hint? …Failed ad-lib.
Looks like I don’t have a talent for directing after all.
