The Shaman Wants Transcendence

17 – Harvest

Inside the wrapping cloth are gold pieces.

They were jewelry made of gold and Japanese gold coins identical to those carried by Japanese lucky cats.

“It is of great size.”

Jin-seong thought that the fortune-telling of the fetish he had created was correct, and took out a gold coin and gently stroked it with his hand.

Swoop.

The gold coin touched by Jinseong trembled as if it were alive, then softened and changed its shape, and the wrinkled surface swayed like waves and gradually became smoother. And in the process, the letters engraved on the gold coins flowed down as if they were melting, and eventually turned into black drops and dripped onto the floor.

“-.”

Impurities disappear.

The gold coin changed its shape by rocking and waving several times, and in the process, things unrelated to gold fell to the floor in the form of water droplets.

The bizarre work stopped only when what had been a gold coin turned into a sphere the size of a fingernail. The sphere, the size of a fingernail, was emitting the characteristic sparkling light of gold, but what was unusual was that it had a circular shape engraved on it, as if a baby had made it crookedly while holding a colored pencil.

Jin-seong felt a little sorry for the small sphere that gave off a strange feeling.

“The purity is not high.”

What is the reason to give an excessive reward to a dog?

Rather, if there were a lot of valuable things, I would have felt a sense of incongruity.

Jinseong flicked the golden sphere with his fingernails and inserted it into the wrapping cloth.

With Tang.

With the sound of metal clashing, the marble that settled down reached the floor as it rolled in the gap between the jewelry and the gold coin.

“-.”

The golden orb, the size of a fingernail, trembled at Jinseong’s words.

“Gold is something that can flow and move. However, its shape resembles a nucleus and has a hard and round shape, so it really resembles a living creature.”

With Jinseong’s spell, the gold beads fluctuated like water balloons and changed their shape over and over again. As if alive, the gold beads, resembling the original, but barely trying to maintain the original, completely collapsed the form with the continued words of Jinseong.

“Like things will resemble like things.”

The golden beads lost their shape and became tentacles that stretched out. All but a very small, speckled orb moved like a living creature, extending its branches to other objects, and the objects caught were buried in the sphere as if it were being swallowed. It was like a formless snake swallowing and preying on its prey, and it resembled the shape of the slime that the summoners call it.

Clink.

That’s how the gold beads were called out. Incoming jewels were wrapped to absorb the gold part, and those that did not correspond to gold were gathered together and began to be spit out.

Clink.

Tang-Gang.

In this way, all the gold items that the Japanese money lending company had as an emergency fund and slush fund were lumped together.

Chu-Lung.

The gold lump that absorbed all the gold objects into itself moved and shook its body as if it were a real slime. And soon, as if recognizing his master, he silently crawled to Jinseong using his upper legs and rode up on his body.

Swoop.

The golden slime, which pulled out its long and thin body, moved like a snake and burrowed between Jinseong’s armor and disappeared.

“Still, you’ve collected quite a lot for a dog. Judging by the weight, heavy things must be really useful.”

Jinseong smiled with a satisfied smile at the weight of the golden slime that came into his arms, and approached the president who was breathing lightly with light steps.

The president was still trembling, staring into the air as if possessed by something.

“ॐ-.”

Jinseong pressed the president’s philtrum with his pointed fingernails.

Then, the pupils, who had been changing their shapes like crazy, regained their place, and instead of their dazed expressions, emotions began to fill them.

Tup.

Jinseong grabbed the president’s arm, which shrank and inflated like a balloon, and whispered in his ear.

“Is it painful?”

Hearing that, the president rolled his eyes and looked at Jinseong, and as if very surprised to see him, the shape of his pupils changed again.

“That-that-that-“

Fear, astonishment, pain, and many other factors drove it to a sound like an old man’s dying voice right before the end of his lifespan, and Jin-seong laughed as he saw it.

“Don’t worry. You will be freed from that pain.”

Mya-ong.

As if agreeing with Jinseong’s words, the clumsy cat in the man’s arms cried.

Meow-!

The cat escaped from the man’s arms and ran to the desk without being called. Then, as if waiting for an order, he quietly knelt down and stared at Jinseong’s face.

“That, that, that girl, zua-she…I…”

“Eat.”

Me-eeeooooo!

Permission was granted, and the cat’s mouth opened up to its ears. The cat’s mouth enlarged like a snake opening its jaws to eat, and its size increased as if it were rubber.

Eventually, when the size became large enough to swallow a person’s head.

Quadruped!

The fruit on the neck disappeared in an instant.

Miiiii Krrr.

The cat melted his hair in an instant like melting delicious candy and turned it into his own flesh.

“Death is so futile.”

Purple.

Like a dog, a body fattened by serving and being loyal to the enemy of the nation.

Myeong, who seemed to enjoy a thousand years of life, was harvested in vain.

“However, dogs are destined to be boiled when their use is over, so this must be their fate as well.”

Jinseong muttered, picking up the blood flowing from his torn neck and putting it in his mouth.

“Um. This isn’t it.”

It tasted like sweet blood, but it was different from the blood Jin-seong was looking for. What he wanted was not human blood like ordinary pigs, but blood that was more like waste, something that couldn’t be used.

“It is useless even after death, so life is truly fleeting. So I chanted an incantation and prayed for the rest of the spirit and body and the return to heaven. Om Mani Padme Hum. Om Mani.”Padme Hum. Om Mani Padme Hum (ॐ मणि पद्मे हूँ).”

Jinseong, as if he were a monk himself, chanted with one hand as if he were a monk.

Meow.

After exalting the spirit of the deceased boss, Jin-seong opened his closed eyes and turned around to walk towards the man with a blank expression.

“Do you want a chair? I’ll buy you one later when I earn a lot of money.”

He talked to Jin-seong as if he hadn’t seen anything even though something terrible had happened in front of him.

“Ohm-“

Jin-seong went out of the president’s office while listening to the man’s words.

“Huh-billion.”

“Huh, huh-billion.”

“Suar… Let’s go…”

Now that the fruit has been confirmed to be ripe, it is time to harvest it.

Say it over and over again

Witchcraft is truly a strange science.

It is correct to imitate nature and imitate its power, but there is no way to know what form it takes. That’s why people say witchcraft is a miracle and a mystery that is not standardized and systematized.

Unlike other studies that use mana, magic, and energy belonging to natural forces, the energy used for each spell is also Jung-gu heating. Some use natural force, some use life force, and sometimes they use power of the earth, luck, and even lifespan.

In addition, it is known that witchcraft uses symbols, but there are actually overflowing witchcraft that do not use symbols, and there are witchcraft that use meaning and there is magic that does not use meaning. As is well known to people, there is magic that mimics a certain object, and there is magic that summons or possesses something like a contractor or summoner.

Witchcraft is so comprehensive and abstract that it cannot be classified as one.

However, the type of sorcery is so diverse that it is unpredictable, so you don’t know what will pop out. Unlike magic, which is easy to predict because it is based on elements, or martial arts, which are necessarily expressed based on the body because it is based on qi.

“Ohm-“

That’s why I was able to create novel and creative things, unlike other abilities that require rules and frameworks.

Quadduk!

There is something called Toxoplasma gondii.

Also called Toxoplasma gondii, Toxoplasma, etc., It is a parasitic parasite that lives in cats.

Kwadeuk!

Parasites are so mysterious that they often make the seemingly impossible possible. This creature called Toxoplasma gondii also shows such an appearance.

This parasite, which uses cats as its definitive host, invades the cat’s body through an intermediate host, grows into adults, and lays eggs. Toxoplasma gondii, a parasite that can reproduce only in the body of a cat, exerts magical powers to reproduce.

Host control.

Toxoplasma gondii control their host.

On the subject of a parasite that is invisible to the naked eye, it is to manipulate the host to be eaten by the cat.

Mice are the main intermediate hosts of this bizarre parasite.

After entering the rat’s body, the toxoplasma gondii begins to control the rat’s brain. The parasite that migrated to the rat’s brain took over the cerebellar amygdala, causing it to develop a liking for cats.In addition, attention and caution decrease, and the sense of crisis about danger decreases.

The mouse, which ran away when it smelled the cat’s urine, behaves as if it had left its liver out of the boat.

Meow!

Kwadeuk!

So the mouse gets eaten by the cat.

True to its name, which is in the shape of a bow (to’xon), it breeds by shooting mice as arrows.

However, there is another amazing thing about this parasite.

It is parasitic in all vertebrates.

Since it can reproduce only in cats, it cannot lay eggs, but it can use all vertebrates as intermediate hosts.

Of course, this also applies to humans.

This is called toxoplasmosis.

When humans are also infected, the brain is affected.

Miyaaagh!

Kwadeuk!

Like rats, they are more adventurous, less alert, and less likely to avoid danger. And like mice, they develop a crush on cats, which usually comes in the form of liking the smell of cats.

Jin-seong’s witchcraft uses this property of Toxoplasma gondii. This magic, which he created himself in the form of primitive magic, not excavated somewhere, makes the person selected as an intermediate host similar to a mouse through Toxoplasma gondii.

Meow?

Of course, you can’t make them biologically similar to rats. It’s because a person can’t have a mouse gene unless they do a living experiment.

Instead, it is to overlay the symbolism of the mouse on the person.

Similar things give birth to similar things.

It is to tie together what both humans and rats have in common, make them resemble rats, and cover the symbolism as well. This is an application of the ‘Seonggwang Eunsangje (聖光銀象祭)’, a witchcraft ritual in which he gained enlightenment in the past.

Rats have whiskers.

Man has a beard

Rats have front teeth.

Humans also have front teeth.

Rats have great vitality.

Humans also have strong vitality.

In this way, commonalities are tied and tied together, and mice and people are also tied together. As a result, people do not become like mice, but they gradually become like them.

His beard grows thin like a rat.

Like a rat, the front teeth continue to grow.

Just as rats have strong vitality, humans also have strong vitality. Muscles develop, body size increases, vitality circulates in the body, and fertility is strengthened.

And as they gradually resemble each other, people are endowed with the symbolism of the rat.

The rat is an animal that has symbolized wisdom, fertility, abundance, blessing, and misfortune since ancient times.

Regardless of the East and the West, rats come out as clever animals, sometimes helping someone with their wisdom, and appearing in a funny way of stumbling over their own tricks. So, a person who resembles a mouse becomes smarter and better at speaking like a mouse.

Rats appear where there is a lot of food to eat, so a lot of rats translates to a lot of food and plenty of room in the house. So, in old stories, rats were often described as rich people who piled up grain. Thus, a person who resembles a rat will have a rich life, will not have a stomachache, and will have good luck.

Instead, rats appear when plagues circulate, and rats appear without fail when disaster strikes.Even when a dead body is piled up like a mountain, it is the rat that always reveals itself, so it is the same form that appears after smelling a disaster. So the rat was also an animal that meant disaster.

And toxoplasmosis is what corresponds to this disaster.

The target of this sorcery is infected with the brain, and courage rises and does not avoid danger. In addition, when the sorcery becomes stronger, he begins to see illusions. The fantasy couldn’t be determined in detail, so it couldn’t compare to the illusion magic performed by wizards or witchcraft performed by witches, but it was possible to a sufficiently usable level.

Shah! Ha ha!

For that reason, the man took the ugly, rotting cat with him, thinking it was cute. And through the medium of the cat, Jinseong’s sorcery spreads to other people in the loan company, incapacitating them all.

But…

Kack!

I guess I couldn’t neutralize everyone.

Jinseong looked to one side.

“Huh-billion! Whoops!”

What I saw there was a well-trained man holding a knife and a cat cut in half.

The man was staring at Jinseong with his body leaning against the wall, gasping for breath, holding a wooden sword that looked hard, and at the man’s feet, the body of a cat was visible with the neck and body separated, revealing a cross-section of a white moldy cat.

“Looking at the supernatural resistance, you’re an unmanned person.”
