Walking in the Moonlight.

He just ca to investigate if it were a calamity, but he ran into that demon, Seo Geom, and the Blue Dragon Troops.

On such a nice night, he had to enjoy himself.

‘Let’s go back to the lodging quickly.’

Zaha quickly wanted to head back to his ho, so Seol Young avoided that direction.

But…

As he passed through the bustling streets illuminated by moonlight, familiar laughter reached his ears.

What?

Seol Young stopped with a puzzled look.

On the other side, there was an outdoor drinking bar. Hwarangs were dressed in purple robes and sitting together.

At first glance, there seed to be a lot of them, even Mu Won-rang, who lost his leg because of Seol Young, was there. As for what they were doing…

…it was insane.

He was pouring tea for Zaha, who was sitting across from him.

‘He said he was going ho! Is this his ho?’

Seol Young hid back to a pillar at the shop entrance. And he heard their conversation.

“If we had gone to the temple without knowing the situation had co to an end, we would have been told that the Black Tortoise Troops moved in vain.”

“You shouldn’t care about what they say.”

“Still, it matters. Great-rang. It is a sha that the High Governor had to return just to inform us. Only the High Governor cares for us like this. You must have been in a rush to return.”

“Ahh, no. I did say I was going ho, but it was only because I wanted soone to overhear it, so I could evade the person tailing .”

“Uh? Soone is tailing the High Governor? Who is that guy who is sick of their life?”

“Who can it be? A person who bothers and follows , claiming to catch my weakness.”

“No, the Ghost Demon…”

“Shh, quiet. I lied about heading ho and got rid of him, but maybe he is following again.”

Saying so, he looked around.

‘That demon is really…’

Seol Young’s body trembled in rage. However, he knew very well how difficult his position would be if he were caught. That is why he had no choice but to hold himself back.

Would the hem of his robe flutter, or would his hair be seen? Seol Young went still, unable to move, and Zaha continued to walk.

‘Please go. Please just.’

At that ti, the door to the place he was hiding behind burst open. Seol Young was so surprised that he almost scread.

The old man who opened it was also shocked. But when he saw who it was, he looked happy.

“Hwarang, please help !”

“Shhh. Lower your voice. What is it?”

“The place across the street is the guesthouse of my son, but while it was left closed and vacant, a ghost entered it. Please kick it out.”

Listening carefully, it seed plausible. If he could go and quietly catch the ghost, when he would return later, the troops, along with Zaha, would have left as well. Besides, maybe that ghost was a clue to the calamities.

“I understand.”

Just then, the Black Tortoise Troops suddenly stood up, and taking advantage of this, Seol Young went into the empty guesthouse.

As soon as he stepped inside, he felt that there really was a ghost here, so he looked around.

At that mont.

The old man’s voice ca from across the street.

“Oh my! There are Hwarangs here too! There is a ghost hiding in the guesthouse of my son! Please get rid of it!”

“Ghost? Now is not the ti for tea! Everyone, get up!”

Seol Young, who was taking out a talisman, went stiff.

‘No, that old man! He asked so why is he calling soone else? If he was going to ask for help, he should have asked just one person!’

He hurriedly tried to leave, but it was too late.

“In here?”

Zaha, Mu Won and the others were entering.

‘This isn’t good.’

Seol Young hid himself in the dark space on the stairway leading to the second floor of the guesthouse.

It didn’t seem like a good idea, but it couldn’t be helped.

“It feels really eerie in here.”

Zaha and the others wandered and looked around.

‘Ah, this is bad…’

Seol Young pushed himself deeper into the darkness. Then, to make matters worse, sothing white appeared in front of his eyes.

A ghost with loose hair. It was standing right in front of him, and looking straight at Seol Young, who was hiding there.

‘Go way!’

Seol Young was threatening with his eyes, but the ghost continued to linger in front of Seol Young, as if it were enjoying it.

Soon, one of the Hwarangs spotted the ghost.

“High Governor, Great-rang! There seems to be sothing over there!”

Heuk…

Seol Young felt his hair stand on his body. At all costs, he had to avoid getting caught.

With that thought, Seol Young hurriedly cast a powerful spell on the body of the ghost. Swish! Light flashed, and the body of the ghost began to swell and rise to the ceiling.

“Get rid of it!”

Zaha’s sword, Mu Won’s weapons, and all the Hwarangs pierced their swords. Then they stopped right in front of Seol Young’s nose.

Needless to say, the ghost vanished.

“It was a lot more dangerous than I thought, right? Old man, it has been resolved.”

“Thank you! Thank you!”

People ca flocking, offering thanks and praise, then left in a hurry.

“Phew…”

Seol Young ca out and sat down. The evil night goblin in the corner of the guesthouse crawled out.

“Ehhh, don’t kill ghosts. They are fun.”

Seol Yong was so exhausted that he didn’t care to talk and just sat. He wanted to go sowhere and be alone.

‘Let’s go back to my room quickly.’

Seol Young managed to get himself up. But then he saw a small bottle of alcohol lying on the table in the guesthouse and a note tied to it.

“What is this now?”

“Ah, that?”

The goblin asked.

“The man dressed in black and had demonic qi left it there. He told us not to open it because there is so ritual character written on it to prevent the ghost from coming back.”

“…?”

Just looking at it, it made no sense. Was the demon up to sothing odd?

Seol Young grabbed the note and opened it. Then he went stiff.

‘Seol Young-rang, stop playing and head to bed early.’

That was written on the note.

He did think it couldn’t be the case, but it seed right that the guy had deliberately led him here.

Seol Young bit his lip in anger.

“Just wait and see…”

“Oh, the person who says ‘just wait and see’ usually isn’t scary at all.”

The goblin chuckled.

Seol Young looked at it, and he wanted to snap its head.

The next day, people in the capital found sothing strange. On the street in front of the guesthouse that was haunted, there was a goblin with its eyes closed and tied up. And a sign around its neck that said, ‘I will not tease others again’.

People shook their heads and whispered.

“Just what happened last night?”
