Chapter 296: Cheonma Uses Magic (5)

The bird that had approached with quick steps shook its head.
“Cute.”

A tiny baby bird with a white belly beneath brown feathers. It was so small, smaller than my fist, making me question if it was indeed a spirit, but its cuteness was undeniable. Though its ability as a spirit was questionable, it wasn’t unusual—after all, the cuckoo bird, which had a contract with Jin Dallae, was also a spirit.

The little creature, hopping toward us, circled around the three of us before chirping in a low voice.
[What, haven’t you seen a spirit before? Should I gouge your eyes out?]
Despite its cute appearance and voice, it spewed merciless insults that created an intense contrast. The atmosphere around us grew chilly.
