Subdued Soul Chronicle

Chapter 102: Moon Palace Eight Ghosts Story (2)

The place was so wide that no special words could be used to describe it.

But now, looking at it, he noticed several unbelievable things.

Several ladies-in-waiting were holding on to one child, and they were desperately trying to keep the child from making any noise.

That alone was shocking enough.

But that was not what surprised Seol Young.

It was the childs appearance.

He doubted his eyes.

Isnt that the Princess?

He couldnt figure out what had happened. There are two Princesses in Silla now.

They were twins who were born on the same day, and they were supposed to be six years old now.

Seol Young also saw them a couple of times. They were white, cute, plump, and timid children.

But they looked completely different now.

Eup! Euk!

Her mouth was groaning. Her eyes were white, and there were black veins along her temple. The Princess had a monstrous appearance, and she was struggling a lot.

Her small feet were hitting the stomachs and chests of the ladies-in-waiting holding her.

Even if she was a child, it looked like her kicks hurt a lot, but they didnt make any sound, and they held onto the Princess with all their might.

And he soon found out why.

It was to show Seol Young.

Go closer and take a look.

A low voice could be heard.

It was the person who told him earlier, Well show you first, and then we will talk.

She was Zaun.

Since it seemed to be an urgent situation, Seol Young approached the princess, and at that moment, another smell that was hidden by the perfume hit him.

Dirt?

The smell of dirt was coming from somewhere, and remembering that fact, he took a closer look at the princess.

Eup! Euk!

It was a beasts voice. Her eyes were unfocused, and her chest pushed ahead. Deep in her skin, her veins changed from black to blue and then from blue to black. Her black blood vessels were clear and spread out like spider webs all over her face.

It was when he took a closer look

Euk!

The Princess, who had been acting out in anger, suddenly pulled her hand back and bit the hand of a lady-in-waiting.

Blood poured out.

The one who was bitten held back her screams, and the other ladies-in-waiting just lowered their heads.

I cant. I cant take it any longer

Bring it here.

Zaun commanded.

And they immediately brought something out.

As soon as the smell of food permeated the room, the Princesss gaze turned there. Before she could even walk without tripping, she opened her mouth,

Oh! Ohh!

It seemed like a cry of hunger. As soon as the ladies-in-waiting let go of her, the Princess rushed at it like a beast and scooped the food with both hands, stuffing it into her mouth.

No! That!

Because it looked like she was also about to eat the bowl, the ladies-in-waiting had to pull it back hurriedly. And then she scratched and bit their hands, making blood drip down.

Ah

The Queen sighed.

The other twin Princess was watching this from the arms of her nanny. Unable to stand it, she buried her head in the arms of her nanny.

Zaun turned toward Seol Youngs side,

Still, she is quiet when eating

Quiet?

Seol Young asked,

Since when did this start?

The ladies-in-waiting who were taking care of the Princess answered,

Six days ago.

Suddenly? There must have been a reason.

Th-That

The ladies-in-waiting hesitated.

Talk. Just like you did to us.

When Zaun persuaded them, they said,

Because it was violated.

Violated?

Yes. The Eight Ghost Stories

What is this now?

There are eight ghost stories about the old palace of the Moon Palace It has been spread by mouth for generations among us ladies-in-waiting I would never even dare to speak

You are saying that you are going to not speak about it even when the life of a child is on the line?

Not that

The woman tried to open her mouth like she wanted to speak, but then she passed out.

Seol Young was surprised.

A curse?

When she tried to say something, there was this powerful force. She tried to keep calm and then speak, but it didnt work.

I feel bad now.

He hurriedly took out some medicine and handed it to the eunuch. Fortunately, the lady-in-waiting woke up as soon as the pill was put in her mouth.

Fainted. Huh

The Queen mumbled with a pale face.

It seems to have gotten worse.

Zaun replied, and she looked at Seol Young.

Even if you ask anyone for the reason, no one can answer it. Until yesterday, their tongues would go stiff, and this is the first time they have fainted today.

It is building up inside.

The Queen sighed.

Why is such a thing happening? Just what do I have to do?

The Princesss well-being is a concern, but right now, the problem is the festival. She has to be treated and shown to the public in her normal appearance. If that doesnt happen

Zaun stopped there.

It was understandable.

According to the tradition that started during King Yuris time, the Princesses would compete in weaving out of good faith.

What if this truth comes out then?

What if it became known that this had happened to the Princess?

The morality of the Queen would be questioned, and it would turn into a messy scandal. In addition, there were many women working hard to serve the King.

All of them were from great families and worked hard to take the role. And even Seol Young knew how fierce the battle was.

Of course, that didnt mean that the status of the Queen would change due to it. The Kings mother also openly said that she valued the Queen.

Still, the Queen was looking anxious.

The Princess became a wolf right before a big festival. I was handling this on my own, so I asked Lady Zauns help. I thought that with her help, the problem could be solved without anyone else knowing

I tried to exorcise the evil spirit with the things I know, but that didnt work out. On the contrary, the evil spirits attacked me. And then I ran into Seol Young-rang, and so we asked for your help.

Zaun continued.

At that time, the Princess, who had finished eating, started behaving badly again.

The ladies-in-waiting grabbed her, but the powers she held were too strong now. With each move she made, the candles flickered.

The Queen was terrified.

Try to do something! It doesnt matter what you usea sword or anything else. Just do something!

For now

Seol Young raised blue energy on his hand.

What the Princess is experiencing now seems to be a phenomenon called possession.

Possession

Another soul has taken over the body of the Princess. It appears to be a very powerful one too.

When Seol Young let the energy go from his hand, a small gold line formed around the Princess.

First, let us find out what it is. Everyone move back and let the Princess come here.

But if we let go of the Princess

Let go. If you stay together when the golden ring forms, it might move into another body.

What are you doing not moving away?

When Zaun spoke again, the ladies-in-waiting reluctantly left the Princess.

Aaaaahhhh!

The Princess screamed and threw herself at the people, but the golden ring blocked her.

The Queen was surprised.

Ajin!

She will not get hurt in that state. It wouldnt hurt her.

Zaun said.

No matter what they were saying, Seol Young had no time to care about them. He had to concentrate when dealing with a spirit.

Who are you?

He raised the spiritual qi on his sword and asked, but the evil spirit didnt answer and continued to scream.

Answer me. Who are you, and what is your purpose for entering that body?

Only monstrous sounds returned.

There was no way he could easily get an answer.

Seol Young still asked, despite knowing that.

It must be subdued right away.

He reached out as fast as lightning and placed the sword on the Princesss head.

The sword shone in blue.

Ahhh!

The Princess screamed.

It sounded like someone was trying to say something, but Seol Young couldnt hear them.

The identity of the possessor was one thing, but the fact that a 6-year-old got possessed was what bothered Seol Young.

If done wrong, her little body would be harmed during the process.

He had to be calm at a time like this.

The feathers turned into stones, the stones into boulders, and so on. He gradually increased the weight he was putting on the sword and pressing down on the Princess.

Then, she slowly began to kneel down, and Seol Young gently touched the Princess.

But then.

There was a small explosion.

And Seol Youngs eyes flashed. The shock he felt was hurting his head too.

Seol Young hurriedly pulled back the sword and got up.

What?

It was just a showdown of spiritual power. He and the evil spirit competed over who had more force, but then someone intervened.

To put it more precisely, it seemed like something that he had been involved with before.

A being with some kind of strong power.

Seol Young had been through a lot of bad things since he was a child, so he was being cautious with this child. No matter how horrible the situation was, he was dealing with a small body.

If he didnt, then the child would be seriously injured.

What is this?

He frowned and performed a detection spell.

Incantation letters spread everywhere, and at that moment, a burst of energy, just like earlier, erupted from under a chair.

Seol Young immediately went there.

He looked under the chair and immediately picked it up with a cold face.

You lied to me.

He set the thing on the table.

A rosary bead.

It was a thick rosary bead with Sanskrit writing on it.

.!

The faces of the Queen and her ladies-in-wating went pale.

Are you 18+?
