Chapter 70: [70] World of Vampire Detective [43]
"Stop! Detective Moon!"
Moon Ji-hyuk turned to look at me. Soon after, his face was filled with shock.
"Taker...?!"
Moon Ji-hyuk collapsed to the ground. It seemed he had suffered a significant mental shock upon learning my true identity. Well, we had been getting along quite well lately.
'...Well, it's not just that. His physical condition is a mess too.'
Moon Ji-hyuk's eyes were trembling violently as he looked at me.
"...That sword. Were you Jeokgwang?"
I glanced at Baek Sang-gi. I wondered why he had suddenly stepped forward, but perhaps it was because of me.
"That's right. I am Jeokgwang."
I answered with a smile. According to the conversation overheard through the wiretap, Baek Sang-gi didn't seem to have any desire for the Orb of Life. His current goal was to feed the Orb of Life to Moon Ji-hyuk and turn him back into a human.
"So you were human after all."
I ignored Baek Sang-gi's words and approached the Flower of Life. The most important thing right now was the Flower of Life. I had to ensure that the Flower of Life could fully bear four Orbs of Life. Of course, the most crucial point was that it shouldn't be taken by anyone else. I kicked Moon Ji-hyuk to create some distance. He was too close to the Flower of Life.
