" how long will you be able to endure
the pain "



i walked inside within the walls of songrim as i received a message from one of the mages that park jin the leader of songrim is looking for me , i walked inside the secret room only to be welcomed by heo yeom and park jin. i bow immediately stopping beside heo yeom " did you come with yul? " heo yeom asked

" animnida " i said while i shook my head , my eyes traveled to the girl who's laying down on the bed. my brows furrowed and i was about to ask park jin who she is but then we heard footsteps , i look towards the person and saw seo yul. he did the same as he entered , he bowed then stood beside me. sparing me a glance before shifting his gaze to the body

" is she naksu? " i heard yul asked while my lips slowly parted as i realized what's happening

" yes " heo yeom answered so she is naksu heo yeom pulled down her collar which revealed a blue mark " this mark shows that her soul has left the body. remember this mark " heo yeom said sparing a glance to the both of us " when someone tries to switch bodies , it leaves a blue bruise like this right on top of their heart " does that mean she switched souls?

" does that mean her soul escaped her body? " yul asked

" she seems to have tried , but i think she failed. this proves that her soul has escaped her body. but we found no signs of her soul having another body " park jin replied , i just stared at her blue mark intently. this is the first time i have seen it , but my attention shifted to yul. he suddenly took something attached on naksu's clothe

" it is a whistle " yul said , i looked at the whistle. it's similar to his whistle back when we're kids

" a whistle? " heo yeom asked

" i once had a similar one myself back when i had a pet bird " yul answered

" did she have a pet bird? "

" i think she had it for quite a while "

"it looks like an important item , she may have been a assassin who killed people like it was nothing , but she was still a human. she must have had a story of her own " heo yeom said , i noticed that yul's gaze shifted to naksu is it the same whistle he gave to the girl that we met at danhyanggok?

.

" is it her? " i asked him as we both walk down the hallway

" who? "

" i mean , do you think it's the same person that we met on danhyanggok before? " he stopped on his tracks which made me stop too , he grew silent while staring at the floor does he still like her? " aye nevermind , forget what i said. i'll go now " i was about to walk away but he grabbed my arms which made me stop
