Chapter 111

The daughter of the Eight-foot Monster has been resurrected.

Although she has been revived as a yokai, not a human.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Damn, that’s crazy. Just looking at her, I thought I could win, but seeing something like that makes me think she really is a Great Yokai.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─ㄷㄷ Is Reubangyi a god?

【Handsome Licker】─I witnessed a miracle… *lick*…

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Maehwa, can all Great Yokai do that?

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! For a Dolharbang, that’s impressive!

【Maid】─Not really impressive.

【Qkrnfl892】─Phew. I thought she was just going to eat her.

【Maehwa Tree】─I was surprised too. It’s the first time I’ve seen a Dolharbang create a yokai.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Maehwa, answer me.

【Yoho】─Anyway, it’s good. It hurt to see Eight-foot crying.

【Meng Yao】─Happy endings are nice sometimes.

【Min Ji】─It really worked… And that stone sculpture is so cute.

【Big Girl】─A combination of a giant and a small person.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Maehwa, you’re ignoring my chat again.

［Pop. Pop. Pop…］

The Eight-foot Monster’s eyes turned red.

He sniffled and carefully lifted his daughter.

［Posun…］

［Dad! I had a scary dream! Hug me!］

The Eight-foot Monster…

No, judging by what Popo said, his daughter’s name seems to be ‘Posun.’

He had terrible naming sense.

Anyway.

Leaving the father and daughter to enjoy their emotional reunion, I approached Reubangyi, patted her head, and expressed my gratitude.

“Thank you, Reubang.”

［Reubang Reubang.］

Reubangyi trembled.

She seemed to enjoy my touch.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─I should ask that Dolharbang to resurrect me as a yokai when I die. Eternal life sounds awesome.

【Min Ji】─Just die peacefully.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─?

【Drifting AI】─I will speak. If you desire eternal life, ask me.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─I want it! My mom too!

【Drifting AI】─I will speak. Request accepted.

I turned my gaze back to Popo and Posun.

Posun, sitting on Popo’s palm, looked around her body and tilted her head in confusion.

［Huh? Dad, why is my body like this? It feels so small, and my skin color is weird, and my whole body feels hard.］

［Pop…］

Popo hesitated to answer.

It was understandable.

If he told her she had become a yokai, Posun might be shocked.

I decided to explain it for him.

After all, it was something that couldn’t be hidden.

***

You were killed by the villagers.

Your soul was still lingering in your body, so with Reubangyi’s help, you were resurrected.

Unfortunately, you are no longer human but a yokai.

I kept the explanation short and simple.

［Posun… I’m sorry…］

While I was explaining.

Popo, who had been fidgeting nervously, apologized to Posun in a trembling voice.

But Posun didn’t seem to care at all.

［Huh? Why are you sorry, Dad?］

［For resurrecting you as a yokai…］

［What does it matter if I’m a yokai or a human? You’re a yokai too. I’m actually happier being a yokai like you. And if I hadn’t become a yokai, I wouldn’t have been able to see you again.］

I was inwardly impressed by Posun’s response.

She was surprisingly mature for her age.

［Posun…!］

Seemingly moved.

Popo burst into tears and tried to hug Posun, but at that moment.

*Hop!*

Posun jumped off Popo’s palm and landed on the ground.

Then she leaped up and perched on my shoulder.

Posun opened her mouth wide and stared at my face.

［I’ve been feeling this since earlier, but you’re really handsome, Oppa. Even more than Dad!］

［Pop?!］

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Damn, this little girl is already flirting with a guy. Should I kill her?

【Handsome Licker】─You’re going to kill her right after she was resurrected? *lick*.

【Min Ji】─Guburi, are you good at fighting? You always say you’ll kill someone.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Yeah, I’m good at fighting.

【Min Ji】─Honestly, I think I could beat you even in a wheelchair. ㅎ

【Drifting AI】─I will speak. If you’re at a level where you could die from Gyeongsaeng Guburi, you’d probably die from a squirrel’s headbutt.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Stop talking nonsense, you bastard. You wanna fight?

【Yoho】─Gyeongsaeng, you’re really barbaric. Losing to a little kid? ㅡㅡ

【Maehwa Tree】─She’s not a little kid anymore; she’s a yokai.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow. Maehwa, do you exorcise cute yokai like that too?

【Maehwa Tree】─If it were the old me, I wouldn’t hesitate. I’d kill her on sight. A yokai is just a yokai.

【Min Ji】─Maehwa, you’re trash.

【Min Ji】─Oh, typo. Maehwa, are you trash?

【Big Girl】─It’s a bit much to exorcise a yokai that isn’t even evil.

【Maid】─Wow! Maehwa, you’re bad!

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Being an exorcist isn’t as cool as I thought.

【Maehwa Tree】─But I don’t exorcise yokai that Se-hoon knows.

【Qkrnfl892】─Do you exorcise other yokai without asking?

【Meng Yao】─Exorcise without asking. ㅋㅋㅋ

【Maehwa Tree】─I used to.

【Qkrnfl892】─And now?

【Maehwa Tree】─I don’t know. Stop asking. ㅡㅡ

［Posun… You used to say I was the coolest… Pop…］

［You’re still cool, Dad! But not as cool as this Oppa here!］

Posun was bold and overly honest.

Seeing her express her feelings so openly, she was mature but still a child.

［Pop. Pop. Pop…］

Popo hung his head with a sullen expression.

He seemed deeply shocked.

His beloved daughter was showing interest in a man she just met and even said he was cooler than her dad.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─ㅋㅋ Popo’s pissed. What a crybaby.

【Yoho】─Popo, don’t be upset. ㅜㅜ

“Posun, your dad’s upset. Go apologize and comfort him.”

【Min Ji】─That’s right! After all he’s done for you! *smack*!

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Min Ji, you bitch! *smack*!

［Okay! I’ll go comfort him!］

I carefully picked up Posun, who was perched on my shoulder, making sure not to break her.

As I was about to hand her back to Popo.

［Reubang? We need to get further away from the village, Reubang!］

Reubangyi shouted urgently.

She was looking towards the village entrance.

When I turned my gaze there, a strange sight unfolded.

The ground split open without a sound.

Black mist erupted from the crack like a fountain.

The mist was rapidly engulfing the entire village.

“…It’s better to move away, as Reubangyi said.”

I didn’t know what the black mist was.

But it looked dangerous, so I decided to take the yokai and retreat a bit from the village.

After walking quickly for about a minute.

I glanced back to check on the village.

“What the?”

The black mist had already cleared.

Not only that.

The village had disappeared along with the mist.

【Yoho】─Huh?

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─What the hell? Where did the village go?

All that was left in front of us was a vast, blue plain.

While I was staring in shock at the vanished village.

I felt someone poking my back.

“Surprised?”

When I turned around, I saw the Defense Team smiling brightly.

***

The Defense Team continued the story they hadn’t finished earlier.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─So why the hell is that Defense Team chick here?

【Handsome Licker】─Just ignore her. There are plenty of stalkers among Se-hoon’s viewers. *lick*.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Defense Team, what happened to the villagers?

【Min Ji】─They said they dropped them into hell.

The Defense Team said they came here through a portal.

To drop the villagers into hell.

A friend had set up the portal for them.

‘…Well, it’s not unbelievable. They wouldn’t have been stalking me all this time.’

Then they brought up the Hell Escape Hotel.

The Hell Escape Hotel.

It was a place actually connected to a world called hell.

【Drifting AI】─I will speak. Everything the Defense Team said is true.

“Real hell… No wonder it didn’t seem like an ordinary hotel.”

“You catch on quick.”

“You wouldn’t chase me here just to lie.”

The Defense Team added that after watching my broadcast.

They went to hell with some acquaintances, rescued some humans, and took down some demons along the way.

“And all the people you saw at the hotel were demons. The clown was a mid-level demon. The three-headed dog was a mid-level monster. The ones you fought while breaking through the walls and trials were low-level demons.”

I didn’t remember the last ones, but I nodded as if I did.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─So all those things at the hotel were demons? ㄷㄷ

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! The clowns were demons too!

【Maid】─Wow! Demons are weak!

【Meng Yao】─I didn’t watch the broadcast then, so I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’ll ask Jujijoa.

The Defense Team’s story continued.

To summarize.

The Great Demon they saw earlier was too valuable to kill and seemed useful, so they subdued and brought it back.

Demons treat most humans as sinners.

The Defense Team was called the Sinner of Sloth.

No need to worry about being called the Sinner of Violence.

That was about it.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─But how did Gyesekkihoon beat the Great Demon just now?

【Yoho】─Because he’s the Room Master.

【Min Ji】─Se-hoon can even beat the Demon King!

【Handsome Licker】─Probably not that much. *lick*.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Defense Team, what happened to the villagers? Asking for the second time.

【Qkrnfl892】─Maehwa, who would win in a fight between a yokai and a demon?

【Maehwa Tree】─The yokai would win. One Queen-level yokai could destroy hell. ㅋ

The Defense Team turned on their phone and checked the chat.

After reading Maehwa’s chat, they immediately refuted.

“What are you talking about? Yokai can’t beat demons. Didn’t you see that Dolharbang scared earlier?”

【Maehwa Tree】─The yokai would win.

“The demon would win.”

【Maehwa Tree】─ㄴ The yokai would win, you idiot.

【Meng Yao】─Are you kids? Arguing over this.

“…I can’t talk to Maehwa. I’ll just ignore her.”

【Reverse Rape Mania】─Defense Team, what happened to the villagers? Asking for the third time.

【Min Ji】─They said they dropped them into hell earlier. Stop asking before I break your fingers.

【Reverse Rape Mania】─ㅇㅋ…

【Big Girl】─So, Defense Team, what exactly are you?

【Yoho】─Yeah. You don’t seem like an ordinary circus magician.

“Oh right. I didn’t explain that.”

Just when I thought it was over, the viewers’ additional questions started the Defense Team’s story again.

***

To summarize what I heard in a short and bold way.

The Defense Team is actually a mage who returned from another world.

That one sentence explained it all.

【Min Ji】─Now we have someone from another world. You don’t know when to stop.

【Yoho】─There are aliens too, you know.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─So it’s not a demon but a mage. Sexy. Can I become a mage too if I reach level 30? ㅋㅋ

【Qkrnfl892】─I can believe everything else, but the otherworld returnee setting is hard to accept.

【Balloon Gum Collector】─Wow! I’ve actually seen someone from another world! They exist!

【Maid】─Wow! They exist!

【Reverse Rape Mania】─ㄷㄷ A mage… Cooler than an exorcist.

【Maehwa Tree】─Want to die?

“Guys, I’m only revealing my identity because it’s just Se-hoon’s fixed viewers here, so don’t go blabbing about it.”

【Handsome Licker】─Take off your clothes and do a dog dance while begging. *lick*.

【Min Ji】─Why would we? ㅎ

【Yoho】─No one would believe us anyway? The Red Clown’s magic tricks looked like real magic, so this reaction is expected.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─Wait a minute! So you’re saying the Red Clown’s magic show was all real magic?

【Drifting AI】─I will speak. That is correct.

“That’s right. It was all magic, not tricks. So, Guburi, do you want to become my fan again?”

The Defense Team asked with a smirk.

They seemed excited to dominate Guburi in the chat like before.

But contrary to the Defense Team’s expectations.

【Gyeongsaeng Guburi】─You damn scammer!!!

Guburi was furious.
