Friendship?? (1)
1.
Despite its monstrous appearance, the monsters head was quite vulnerable.
Using his spear, Siwoo plunged it into the center of the creatures forehead (or somewhere close to it). It didnt even shriek, rather it twitched once before dying.
As light vanished from its eight eyeballs, its flesh began to melt.
The tar-like, dark body almost liquified, slipping through the crevices amidst the debris.
Among the swirling black liquid, Siwoos and Sharons gazes were drawn to a certain glimmering object.
Eyeballs No, they were crystals that were embedded in the body of the Mother Homunculus.
Ah Ah! Ah!
Sharon, quick! Pick them up!
Having stood by Siwoos side the whole time, fearing that the Mother Homunculus might cause one final round of chaos, Sharon suddenly cried out.
In her panic, she swiftly gathered the crystals, while Siwoo rushed over to help her.
He didnt want these valuable crystals, even more valuable than gold, to vanish into the buildings cracks.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
This reminded him of a certain scene in Spirited Away.
For a while, they were occupied with collecting the crystals.
Because of Siwoos clumsy use of his telekinesis, they ended up spending a full two hours to collect everything.
In total, they managed to gather around 4,091 crystals.
According to Sharon, they weighed around 5,4 kilograms.
Which meant, they could get 5,4 billion won if they were to exchange it at the Witch Point.
F-Five B-Billion
After confirming the final count, Sharon staggered with her mouth agape.
Siwoo expected shed be jumping for joy, but it seemed like the huge amount of money just left her dumbfounded instead.
When her body started to wobble, Siwoo lent support by holding her in the waist.
Earning five billion Is like Working 600,000 hours at the convenience store
H-Hey, snap out of it!
Im going crazy Oh, Im so happy What do I do?
The huge amount of money, equivalent to winning the lottery, wasnt the only thing that they got. Siwoo actually stumbled upon something else.
A heart-shaped piece near the Homunculus heart.
Every part of the Homunculus, save for the crystals and this piece had melted already at this point.
As he watched Sharons half-ecstatic, half-fainting state, he also gazed at the heart in his hand. There was a complicated emotion in his face.
Its size barely matched his fist, but it looked incredibly eerie.
If he were to place it in a glass case, itd resemble a preserved heart specimen.
What do you think this is, Sharon?
I dont know Ehe Ehehe Five billion
Laughing joyously, she clung to Siwoo as if she was high on morphine.
Their skinship wasnt excessive, but he could feel her soft chest pressing against his arms as she embraced him tightly.
Haah
Seeing her so happy made him chuckle involuntarily.
In his opinion, she did deserve this kind of reward in her life.
While he was thinking as such, Sharon, who had been giggling uncontrollably, suddenly stiffened up.
Oh!
She remembered something.
Della.
Because of her loss to Della, she had lost her hunting ground.
Which meant, if they lingered here any longer, she might silently swoop in and snatch away all their spoils.
I-I cant let that happen
Noticing her suddenly trembling like a squirrel, Siwoo looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Lets go back. Quickly.
Why? Is something wrong?
Sharon instantly regretted her words.
If she were to mention Dellas name here, itd blow her cover of having seen through his lies to her.
Therefore, she quickly straightened up and acted nonchalant.
Ah, well Im just tired. Lets go home, watch a movie and get some late-night snacks.
But you told me youd be treating me to dinner tonight.
And finally they decided to split the heart-shaped object open.
Siwoo extracted a bit of his shadow and created a scalpel out of it to cut the heart.
Contrary to its appearance, it had more of a stony texture than flesh, so he needed a considerable force to split it open.
Hmm
When they managed to slice it open, something appeared out of it.
Is this A crystal?
A Homunculus crystal.
Quite a big one, about 5 cm in diameter.
They expected something amazing to come out of it, but it turned out to be just a crystal.
Well, I was excited for nothing.
However, Sharon examined the crystal even further. She held it up to the light and saw it from different angles.
Suddenly, her expression turned serious.
Hm? Did you notice something strange?
Yeah. This thing is a little weird.
What about it is weird?
Normally, when a Homunculus dies, the body slowly disappears except for the legacy it possesses and its crystal, just like what we saw today.
Okay
Sharon set the crystal aside and inspected the split heart on the table.
But for some reason, this thing remains intact. It isnt a crystal or a legacy.
As Siwoo lacked a broad understanding of magic, he struggled to comprehend Sharons words.
With a serious expression, she continued to talk.
Someone must be behind this.
Someone?
Yeah. I dont know who it is, but they did something to this crystal. Due to interference from the outside, even if the Homunculus dies, it wont disappear.
Are you trying to say that they were using the heart to control that Homunculus?
Could be, but we cant be too sure of that. It could be there to enhance its power, there are endless possibilities But, judging from the crystal wrapped inside its heart It involves some ritualistic enhancement through human sacrifice
Then, she began to dissect the heart bit by bit.
Hearing such a serious matter coming out of her mouth, Siwoo opened his eyes wide.
Human sacrifice?
Yeah, most likely A Criminal must be behind this. Anyone can tell that this is a humans heart.
Well, not me, apparently.
The split heart suddenly appeared grotesque to him.
I knew it seemed too small as the heart of that enormous monster. But, fucking hell, its actually a humans heart?
Well we dont need to overthink about it. I just need to report it to the Witch Point tomorrow while exchanging the crystals.
Really?
Yes. Ill take care of the matter from now on. You should take a good rest, youve been through quite a lot.
Sharon was correct.
Siwoo was completely drained, both mentally and physically. He didnt even have the energy left to think about anything else.
Considering the days hustle, taking a night off without overthinking things would be ideal for him.
Rather, it was a much needed reward for him.
Still up for a movie night?
Of course.
Okay, Ill take a warm shower first.
What do you want to watch, though?
Its been a hectic day today, so lets watch something calming. What do you think?
Sure, Im down.
Having decided what they wanted to watch, Sharon headed to the bathroom for a shower while Siwoo sprawled on the sofa while sipping a chilled beer.
