Seoul Object Story

The battle between the Crimson Reaper—or rather, the Gray Reaper—and the Hungry Ghost Reaper was finally over.

The result was quite unexpected for the little sister.

The Hungry Ghost Reaper, with its flashy yet nimble movements, a blade that could cut through anything, and even a flame that could burn everything around it, had been defeated!

When the Gray Reaper won, the Golden Reapers who had been watching the fight with sparkling eyes jumped around in all directions, creating a festive atmosphere. Whether it was because of their genuinely happy expressions or the mind corruption of the Golden Reaper affecting them, the little sister watching felt a flicker of joy at the Gray Reaper’s victory.

While observing the Golden Reapers bouncing around so excitedly that they bumped into each other and rolled, she heard a strange sound.

Cough-! Cough-!

It was such a faint sound that she wouldn’t have heard it if she hadn’t been right there.

No way, it couldn’t be!

She tried to ignore it, thinking it was a hallucination stemming from the hope that her older sister might be alive. If she lowered her head, expecting to see her older sister still lying motionless, she felt like her heart would shatter.

Cough-! Cough-!

Then, the faint but clear coughing sounded again.

Was it an auditory hallucination?

“Unnie?”

The little sister lowered her head, her voice trembling, and there she saw her older sister looking up at her with slightly opened eyes.

Seeing her sister’s eyes open, she couldn’t help but cry again. She knew she should say something, but all she could do was weep.

“I told you. I won’t die unless they cut my throat…”

The tattooed woman lifted her hand with difficulty and wiped away her sister’s tears, smiling weakly.

“Eung”

The little sister nodded wildly, clutching her sister’s hand as if to prevent her from running away.

Meanwhile, the Golden Reapers were clapping their tiny hands to celebrate their reunion. Then, they scurried off somewhere and returned with a large chunk of marshmallow, holding it out to her as if offering a treat.

It was a massive piece of marshmallow, golden brown and well-roasted.

The piece was as big as her head, radiating an ominous presence.

As she glanced around a marshmallow as big as a person’s head suddenly popped out of nowhere. Then, she saw a large chunk of marshmallow in the corner of the charred living room.

And around it, there were a lot of Golden Reapers, removing the parts that were completely burnt while only eating the good parts.

Was there always a marshmallow there?

The little sister took a little bit and ate it. It was so delicious that it was hard to believe it was a regular marshmallow.

“Unnie, this is delicious. Do you want to try it? Or is it okay for you to eat it?”

It was so delicious that the little sister tried to give it to her older sister, but when she remembered that her lower body had been cut off, she ended up asking her whether it would be okay or not for her to eat it.

Of course, the severed lower body quickly recovered the moment the older sister regained consciousness, so it looked fine on the outside. However, the younger sister thought that since it was such a big wound, it might not have fully recovered, so she couldn’t help but ask.

“It’s okay. Except for the dizziness due to lack of blood, I’m fine.”

“Then let’s eat together!”

The younger sister smiled brightly and put a piece of marshmallow in the older sister’s mouth. The woman narrowed her eyes slightly as she ate the piece, feeling something strange.

She is too cheerful for the situation, is it because of mind corruption? I’m sure I gave her some medicine…

However, the woman was too badly injured to do anything, so she could only be suspicious.

The marshmallows that the younger sister and older sister ate were really delicious.

However, in the background of the two happy sisters, there was a sad sob.

“Kyuuu.”
