I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul Chapter 27 - faqwiki.us (2024)

No, that’s right.

Common sense tells us that when we look at these items, we think of entrusting them to someone with material items or crafting skills, but don’t think of putting them in our mouths, right?

– At first, I also took it to the production awakener. However, it was sent back after being told that it was not a material item.

“Hmm.”

– It’s a by-product of a hard-won boss monster, so you can’t just leave it in your inventory. After trying various things, I finally figured it out.

I imagined Seo Ji-han carefully gnawing on a piece of horn while thinking about all sorts of things.

It’s hard to control my facial expression when I think of him with that cold, handsome face.

While I was struggling to control my expression, Seo Ji-han added one word.

– As far as I know, I’m probably the only one who knows this.

Seo Ji-han was proud that he had received very valuable advice, but I couldn’t express my sincere gratitude.

The horn of Kergis was truly tasteless.

And I wasn’t the type of person who could tolerate bad food for long.

Thinking about the future makes me very worried.

“I have one more question: Can I eat it with sauce?”

This was an important issue.

Fortunately, Seo Ji-han nodded.

Although it was a bit absurd.

– As long as you eat it all, it doesn’t matter what the method is.

That’s a good thing.

“I’ll just eat here today.”

While I was talking to Seo Ji-han, I was gnawing on the horn every now and then, and my stomach felt like it was going to explode.

And since it had no taste, it was difficult to eat a lot.

How long will it take to eat it all?

I think it will take at least a month.

– Put the horn back in your inventory.

“I tried to do that. Because if anyone sees it, it’s a big deal… … .”

After retrieving the horn from my inventory and looking at my phone, I saw that it was already approaching dawn.

For some reason, I felt tired.

As soon as I realized the time, I felt very tired.

Without even having time to admire the nice hotel bathroom, I washed up and lay down on the bed.

The cushioning is amazing.

As I turned off the light and lay down in bed, the city lights poured in through the window.

When I was in the semi-basem*nt, it was dark even with the lights on, but here it is bright even with the lights off.

When I looked out the window, thinking about closing the curtains, I saw Seo Ji-han perched precariously on the terrace railing.

Because it was a high-rise building, the wind would have been very strong, but his hair was calm.

Seo Ji-han sits alone and looks down on the city.

The translucent light, which made it difficult to tell what it was thinking, looked dangerous as if it would disappear at any moment.

What is he thinking now?

What will happen to us in the future?

My future, which I thought would be one of working at a company, building a career, saving a small salary, and living simply to prepare for retirement, has completely disappeared.

I was feeling both excitement and anxiety as I faced an unpredictable future.

I wonder if Seo Ji-han feels the same way I feel.

Even he couldn’t have predicted a future like this.

If I die at the end of my life, what will happen to Seo Ji-han?

Could it be that I have to stay forever alone in that all-white soul stone?

It’s so scary to even think about it.

I fell asleep looking at the solitary and lonely translucent back.

Tomorrow, I will find a good temple for Seo Ji-han.

* * *

Once I gained new skills and was able to envision my future as a combat hunter, I naturally stopped looking for a home.

If you join a guild and become a full-fledged hunter, you can spend as much money as you want without having to investigate the source of funds, so there is no reason to go through the trouble of looking for a cheap house now.

I planned to stay in the suite until I gained skills, joined a guild, and could spend money without restrictions.

To be honest, I was very reluctant at first because of the price of the suite room.

But not now.

Ironically, the more money I spent, the more my sense of money grew.

No, I think it would be more accurate to say that you get used to the situation.

In the past, I spent a lot of money that my monthly salary could not cover, but the cash in my inventory showed no signs of decreasing.

After seeing that, I realized that a few million expedition degrees had become a small amount to me.

Thanks to this, I didn’t waste money at all when reimbursing the broken semi-basem*nt room.

Somehow, I felt like I could understand why Seo Ji-han clicked his tongue and asked if he only had 100 million.

I was having a very monotonous day because I didn’t have to work.

These are days when I wake up, eat Kergis’ horn, watch some TV or go out for a while to find a good temple, and then come back and eat the horn again.

After eating all the horns, I would be able to work as a combat hunter in the guild, so there was nothing to worry about.

My only worry now was Seo Ji-han’s future, which I don’t know what will happen next.

For that reason, I visited the temple for him again today.

“There are a lot of people.”

– I know.

People were gathered in small groups and chatting in the front yard of the temple, where the midday sunlight was dazzlingly shining.

There were many people who came with their families, and quite a few people came alone.

Actually, I thought there wouldn’t be many people because it was a weekday day, but I was quite surprised because there were so many.

I guess it’s because it’s a famous temple.

The website was very poor, but I suddenly gained some confidence.

It’s already my seventh temple, so I should have some income.

“Let’s look for a monk.”

Seo Ji-han nodded his head and followed.

In fact, Seo Ji-han looked astonished when he first visited the temple.

He also sarcastically told me not to do anything unnecessary.

However, I was equally at a loss for this situation, so in the end, I was pushed by logic.

Seo Ji-han, do you want to live as a ghost forever?

What are you going to do if something goes wrong?

I have to try something!

Well, I said this to him, and he eventually agreed.

He seemed quite shocked that he was verbally pushed to me, but who knows.

“I heard that same-day reservations for Cheondojae were possible here, so I made a reservation.”

I deliberately searched for a temple that was good at Cheondojae on the Internet.

This place specializes in Cheondojae, and since Cheondojae is held almost every day, it was very easy to make a reservation.

The temple’s website had a banner that said ☆Buddha attainment★specialized☆ in flashy yellow and red letters, which made it a little less trustworthy, but wouldn’t a place that does this a lot have the ability?

– under… … .

Seo Ji-han, who seemed to be following along, suddenly held his face with an expression of self-destruction.

When I was looking at the website earlier, I was very distressed and thought, ‘I can’t believe I have to resort to such a scam.’ I guess this is an extension of that.

Actually, I’ve seen Seo Ji-han look like that so many times that it’s not even surprising to me anymore.

Ranking No. 1, your mentality is a bit weaker than I thought.

“Oh, why are you doing that again? Let’s hurry up and have the will to achieve Buddhahood. “It is to attain Buddhahood diligently and vigorously.”

– under… … .

He clenched his fists and stamped his feet to try to raise his will, but Seo Ji-han still just followed him at a shaky pace.

There’s no need to walk because it moves automatically when I go anyway, but I always walk like that.

“Anyway, where is the monk?”

– Isn’t that the bald guy in the robes over there?

“You’re bald!”

I shouted in shock at the almost blasphemous sound, but quickly closed my mouth.

In the eyes of others, it was as if I, who was walking quietly, was the only one shouting that I was bald.

Seo Ji-han laughed happily when I realized belatedly that I had been tricked and glared at him.

Ha, I accumulate merit.

– I’m telling you, I don’t believe in this. If it were normal times, I wouldn’t have even bothered to see it.

“I guess so.”

I responded rudely and approached the monk he pointed to.

Knowing my approach, they first put their hands together and greeted me.

“hello. “This is Son Mo-a, who made a reservation at Cheondojae today.”

“Ah, you are the Buddhist monk who is said to be leading the nameless spirit family.”

It is said that Cheondojae usually needs to know the name of the person to pray for Buddhahood.

However, since there was no way I could confidently say, “Please pray for the soul of Seo Ji-han, the number one person in the rankings,” I simply requested that I want to transfer all the people who died in the explosion that created this dungeon.

I was glad that the temple only praised it and said it was great, but didn’t find it strange.

“It will start soon. Eat it this way. Oh, have you eaten?”

A monk who was pointing to a Buddhist temple suddenly asked a question.

It seems like it was a little after lunch time.

“Yes, I ate it.”

Today too, I ate a lot of hotel kimchi on Kergis’ horn.

Thanks to diligent eating, Kergis’s horns had shrunk considerably.

Hmm, how much did you eat?

Horn of King Kergis

When I opened the notification window, I was deeply moved.

I ate almost six meals a day solely from the horn of Kergis.

Thanks to eating until my stomach exploded, I was able to eat this much in 10 days.

If I could cut it, I would have cut it and added it to various dishes.

That wasn’t easy because you could only cut it with your mouth.

If you really wanted to, there was a way to spit out what you put in your mouth and put it back into the dish, but I didn’t feel the need to go that far.

Actually, I tried frying a piece, but there was no change at all. The texture and taste.

If the state of the horn does not change no matter what you do anyway, it is more efficient to just eat it with some other food.

“is it so? You can eat at the restaurant over there, so go ahead and eat at least a little bit. “You might be hungry by the time the ancestral rites are over.”

“thank you.”

“you’re welcome. Shall we go?”

Ah, I really want to do that too.

I heard that the wild vegetable bibimbap served here is very delicious.

However, since I had to go home and eat the horn again, I had no choice but to ignore the restaurant.

As I followed the monk into the shrine, there was a sacrificial table and candles lit.

After briefly exchanging greetings with the monk who would preside over the ancestral rites, Cheondojae began.

While people stood reverently praying for Seo Ji-han’s soul while chanting Buddhist scriptures in a low voice, Seo Ji-han himself looked very bored.

Is it effective or not?

“How are you feeling?”

I asked him a question, and Seo Ji-han answered without even looking at me.

– Not good.

Hmm, it’s a disaster after all… … .

When I see Seo Ji-han standing gloomily and without an expression, I suddenly feel worried.

Maybe it’s because it’s in the shadows, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a ghost itself.

Aren’t you getting an exorcism rather than becoming Buddha?

I felt a little anxious, but I tried my best to turn my attention to things like Buddhist paintings and the pretty temple ceiling interior.

I got bored listening to Buddhist scriptures that I couldn’t understand, so I quietly picked up my phone.

At just the right time, I received a phone call from someone.

It was an unexpected sender.
