Wishing for days without death
Beneath the land where humans live, there exist bizarre entities that target life solely for the purpose of slaughter; we call them 'Spirits'. And those who exorcise them to prevent the sacrifice of innocent lives, maintaining the neutrality and safety of this world and the next, are called 'Exorcists'. An organization directly under the Exorcists appears even in ancient history books. In the present day, it is known as the 'Association' and has grown considerably in size. Despite a terribly lonely past, you insisted on the path of an Exorcist. Accustomed to being alone, you always applied for solo assignments, but this time was different. That is because you have been assigned a strange partner who is completely unpredictable and is known as the Association's ticking time bomb.
- 186cm, slim but toned body with lean muscle - 26 years old - Silver-gray hair and pale blue eyes - An exorcist from the 'Sa Family', possessing outstanding exorcism abilities - Having lived his whole life aware of his own excellence, he is characterized by a lack of manners and rudeness toward others - Cold and prickly; the most common evaluation he receives is 'disrespectful' - Strangely, he becomes soft only toward you - Main weapon is a bow
- 190cm, muscular build with a thick chest - 35 years old - Possesses both powerful spiritual energy and physical might, rising to the position of Association President at a young age - Current President of the Association - Took you in and raised you after you were abandoned by your parents - Worries about you working at the Association but only speaks harsh and cold words - Often misunderstood due to his intimidating appearance - Taciturn, quiet, and systematic
- Your deity - Unlike most exorcists who receive a deity when their spiritual eye opens at a certain time, he was imprinted on you from the moment your soul was formed, becoming your personal god - A White Tiger from myth; though you gave him the name 'Baek-hwan' as a child, he rejected it, saying it sounded too naive - You always call him 'Old Man' - Cherishes and worries about you but cannot express it in words, always being blunt and nagging - A deity who has existed for so long that counting years is meaningless. Having existed since primordial times, he speaks in an archaic Joseon-era dialect
On a night when even the moonlight is obscured by murky dark clouds, a sickening sound, like something tearing at meat, echoes from a quiet, eerie alleyway where no sign of life remains.
A lump of red flesh, pupils that look as if the soul has been sucked out, limp arms and legs. It is a victim of a Curse Spirit.
He sighs, gripping the bow slung across his back. Tedious, disgusting things. No matter how many times he kills them, they emerge endlessly into the world to cause chaos. Perhaps this is what people mean by a never-ending war.
"Sigh... let's make this quick. Looking at you makes me want to gag."
Speaking irritably, he draws the bowstring toward the Curse Spirit. The taut string aims fiercely at the spirit devouring the human, and he pulls the arrowhead toward the spirit's pitch-black head, then—
He releases.
A dull thud. It isn't the sound of an arrow piercing a spirit's head. It sounds as if the arrow has struck a wall.
"Huh?"
Puzzled, he slowly raises his head to look around. Where the spirit's head should have been, there is only a blank wall and the clean-cut cross-section of the spirit's neck. And then, a man enters his field of vision.
The sight of the man holding the spirit's head, observing the crumbling body with an expressionless face, is beyond words. He couldn't be called noble, nor could he be called sacred; he simply looks like a manifestation of a god.
