Chapter 9 - Boogie Boogie Boogie (1)
Chapter 9: Boogie Boogie Boogie (1)
TL/ED – Enuma ID
Park Cheol-min, who was the owner of a haunted building, was currently in a very good mood.
After the young man named Kim Yo-han took up a part-time job as a security guard, he no longer had strange nightmares and no strange things happened in the building.
It seemed that his words about having good energy was true after all.

The rumors that had already spread did not easily die down, so there were still few customers, but it was nevertheless recovering little by little.
He had been worried he’d have to call a shaman. He was glad he saved money.

After all, he needed to save money to prepare for the art school tuition his daughter wanted to go to.
“Dad, come quickly.”
“Yeah, yeah, I am coming.”
At his daughter’s call, Cheol-min walked around the exhibition.

And at that moment, he heard the murmur of people, and their gazes gathered in one place.
An elderly man with neatly arranged white hair and a suit that suited him well.
He was the famous painter Smith, of American mixed heritage.
Although he was retired now, he was still a painter with influence in the art world.

As Cheol-min approached to greet him, Smith recognized Cheol-min and came over first.
“Cheol-min ssi, it has been a long time. You look like you are in good health today.”
Еṅ üm̀ à ..і̄d̄
“Yes, yes! Sir, haha! Thank you.”
They say life is full of ups and downs. The reason Cheol-min had become acquainted with such a famous and wealthy painter was from when he once stopped by an exhibition and happened to have a conversation.
Smith had shown interest in Cheol-min’s story about the haunted building.
“How have things been these days?”
“Ah, haha! Well, I met a benefactor and it was resolved well.”
“A benefactor… you say?”

At the word benefactor, Smith closed his mouth for a moment, thought, and then spoke.
“Cheol-min ssi, if it’s alright with you, could you tell me about it in detail at the cafe inside over there?”
“Huh? Yes! Of course.”
Cheol-min readily brought his daughter along. Without his daughter even asking, he started with the story that she had talent in art, and then brought up the story of meeting Yo-han.
He said that from the beginning, just by looking at Yo-han, he noticed he was a special person.
He added some embellishment, saying that Buddha had sent him as a benefactor out of pity for him.

It might be that he truly believed that himself.
In any case, the conclusion was that no strange phenomena occurred after Yo-han took up the security job.

“I see… Thank you for telling me.”
After finishing his conversation with Cheol-min and concluding the exhibition schedule, Smith got into the car driven by his chauffeur and returned home.
The car headed away from the city with its building lights illuminating the night toward a mansion built in Western style on a quiet mountain road.
It was originally used as a vacation home, but now he was staying here for the recuperation of his granddaughter, whose health was poor.
W еb n ó v̇ẽ l Ё n u̇m а
…Yes, it was for his granddaughter’s sake.
After Smith stared at the mansion door for a moment and let out a breath, he went inside.
“Kyaaaaaaah!”
A scream as if something were shattering rang out.

“……!?”
Smith hurriedly ran to his granddaughter’s room.
Eñu mа̂ .і̇d̀
“Emily!”
As he entered through the already open door.
A blonde girl with skin as pale as the pure white pajamas she was wearing, Smith’s granddaughter Emily.
She had her eyes wide open, tears streaming down, curling up on the bed and trembling.
“Ah, miss, it is okay. Please calm down.”
The newly hired maid tried to calm Emily, but it was no use.

“Mom… Dad… they are talking to me.”
The terrible nightmare his granddaughter had where her dead parents appeared.
Smith approached the bed and embraced his trembling granddaughter.
“Emily, it is just a nightmare. Just a nightmare.”
“They talk to me in a h, horrible form… telling me to die quickly.”
“They would never say such things!”
Е̇nú m̀а̃
However, Emily’s trembling did not subside.
Smith was anguished as he looked at his granddaughter shaking in his arms.

The unsettling things that had been happening in the house from a certain day onwards, and with his granddaughter’s nightmares.
Feeling something was wrong, he moved with Emily to a hotel. Emily suffered from a high fever and vomited black blood.
The doctors said they did not know the cause, and in the end they returned to this house. Nothing changed.
Rather, it got worse.

“…Now I see the nightmares even when I am awake. From inside the closet, on top of the bookshelf, from the cracks, they whisper to me.”
The precious child entrusted to him by his deceased son.
In the sorrow of being unable to do anything for his suffering granddaughter, Smith tightly shut his eyes.
“Lord… what sin has this child committed for You to treat her this way.”

Now anyone would do. Even if it was a hope like a bubble, if it could save his granddaughter, he wanted to try anything at all.
With trembling hands, Smith called Cheol-min.

“Yes… Cheol-min ssi, it is me. …Could you contact the young man named Kim Yo-han for me?”
And under the bed.
With the two heads pressed tightly together, the faces of a man and a woman were smiling with their mouths torn open to their ears.
Expecting new prey that would walk in on their own, they quietly tapped the floor with their long fingers.
They slid smoothly deeper under the bed.

Yo-han stopped by a department store that had a herbal medicine shop selling herbal products and purchased powdered musk and the necessary items.
Since he bought things he needed besides incense materials on this occasion, the expense was greater.
In any case, the materials were prepared, so he decided to make it right away.
In the kitchen, he opened the Grimoire and reviewed it again while rereading the section on Magic incense.
[The materials used for incense are not necessarily fixed and can differ depending on the Wizard and the school. After finding and testing several mysterious materials and spices in Damascus, since the effects were good, I use materials such as these.]
My eyes narrowed.
Ŵеḃ n о v̄ е̊ l Ѐ n̄ u m̃ȧ
Teacher… if each Wizard uses different materials, you could have used some cheaper ones.
Middle Eastern spice merchants… these bastards….

“It is fine, I am not giving it to anyone else, I am using it all myself. I should use good stuff.”
I muttered to myself and brushed aside my stray thoughts.
Holding the Grimoire in one hand, I prepared by putting the materials into an earthenware bowl.
When making incense, the planetary day and Planetary Hours were not particularly important.
Ė ǹ u m̆а .і̌ d̂
The first step of making Magic incense.
I put in aloe, nutmeg, benzoin, and musk, crushed them, and mixed them well.
I pressed, pounded, and blended the materials with a pestle.
Second, when it seemed to be evenly well mixed, I now recited the incantation.

“God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Let this incense possess the power and virtue to draw in good spirits and drive away evil spirits.”
“By the grace of the Holy Spirit, bestow protection and virtue upon the one who uses this incense. Lord, bless and consecrate it.”
W̄ е̃b̃n̈ о̌v e l Ѐn̄ǔ m̀ а
After finishing the incantation, I now added additional spices.
This part was written as simply adding spices, so I decided to put in what I had at home.
I sprinkled in some representative spice, pepper, and since chili peppers are also treated as a spice that gives spiciness, I crushed peperoncino finely and added it.
For the fragrant oil, I considered putting in cooking oil, but since I had already used expensive good materials, I decided to use a good oil as well, and added olive oil.
And then I mixed it well again.
Clatter, clatter~

I narrowed my eyes as I looked down at the contents in the earthenware bowl.
‘Is this being a Wizard… or a chef….’
Anyway, as the finishing touch, I sprinkled Holy Water over the completed contents using a Holy Water sprinkler.
Wrap it well in soft cloth, a handkerchief, and store it, and it’s done.
Now, whenever needed, I could take out as much as I wanted and put it into the fire.
And there was something I needed to use it for right away.
Ẃ ӗb n̄o v̄ ёĺ .Е n̆ ũ m̂ а̌.
I took out the white trench coat I had bought at the department store.
Of course, it was not that I suddenly wanted to wear a coat, but to make a robe that would protect my body from evil spirits and assist Magic.

Since it was said that a white robe was absolutely necessary, I bought a white coat.
These days, Magic stories are popular where they do not use auxiliary tools like staffs or crystal balls and instead calculate everything mentally to use Magic… it made me wonder why I even had to prepare a robe.
On the inside of the robe, I inscribed the Magic sigils drawn in the Grimoire with red ink.
On the inside front and back of the robe, and on the left arm and right arm sides, I wrote names.
E n̊ u̇ m a
The front was [YOD, HE, VAU, HE], the back [ADONAI], the right arm [EL], the left arm [ELOHIM]
After that, I lit a fire in the mini brazier obtained from the department store’s camping section.
I put in the incense I had made earlier and burned it, drying the robe in the smoke that rose.
I fanned it so that the smoke would go well toward the hanging coat.

The scent of the smoke felt somewhat special… like a smoked aroma? Something similar.
Anyway, like that….
Ѐ ñ um а ..і̂d̆
Ta-da~ the Magic incense and the robe were completed.
And then my mobile phone rang.
When I checked the number. It was the man who had posted the security part-time job listing last time. It was Park Cheol-min.
It did not seem like there was anything more to talk about… what was going on?
I decided to answer the call for now.
“Yes, hello.”

“Haha! Yo-han sunbae-nim, you have been doing well, right. This is Park Cheol-min. Thanks to you, I have been living comfortably.”
My eyes immediately narrowed.
It was not like I had done anything worthy of respect. If someone raised me up by calling me sunbae-nim, then that person was either extremely polite.
…Or they had some ulterior motive, one of the two.
Let me at least hear him out.
“You flatter me to say it’s thanks to me. Yes, go ahead.”
