Chapter 67

The voice Seol heard from the darkness was definitely a woman's.

"You know who I am?"

"Aren't you Chao, a shadow summoner from Kongory?""

"It seems like you've investigated quite a bit about me. But even though I might have stayed in Kongory for a while, I'm not originally from there. Still, it's nice to meet you. What's your name?"

"Snowman."

"I've never heard of you before, that's a bit unfair. Even though you know my name, I haven't even heard of yours."

Step. Step.

Chao slowly stepped out of the darkness.

Fwoosh!

And instantly, she disappeared before reappearing right in front of Seol. It was at incredible speed.

Chao let out a punch, aimed at Seol.

Grab!

Even so, Karen was able to stop it with her hand.

Karen laughed, "Your jokes are a bit much, lady."

"Oho! You have a good shadow."

Release.

Chao slowly pulled back her fist. Karen also let her go without any trouble.

'She found out that Karen was a shadow.'

Even though fooling ordinary people was easy, fooling an experienced shadow summoner like Chao was too much.

Seol questioned why Chao acted that way.

"Why did you do that?"

"Just cause. I did it because I was curious," said Chao while spinning around.

"Still, it's such a strange world. Even though I, the homeowner, come in here through the windows, an uninvited guest like you is boldly walking through the front door."

Chao mentioned how Karen broke down her door.

"Why don't you just go through the door too?"

"Because I lost the keys."

"What?"

"Based on your reactions, I shouldn't make jokes. It's because people are chasing after me. I already have a habit of not leaving behind any traces, so... it's just something like that."

Seol calmly told her why he was looking for her.

"People believed that you went missing."

"Ah, are you from the Prophets of the Dark? No wonder... It makes sense why you'd know me then. Don't tell me, are you from Kongory?"

"Not anymore, but yes."

"Then it must have been the nerds there who sent you. They're so kind, really... but, what should we do?"

Chao's eyes flashed in the dark.

"I don't plan on going back to Kongory anymore."

"...Oh no."

"Yeah, you came all the way here for nothing. Congratulations!"

Despite Chao's mocking congratulations, Seol coldly responded.

"It's fine. All I had to do was deliver a message anyway."

"You... This wasn't the only reason you came to find me was it?"

"It was just something I could do while I was on the way."

"What do you want?"

Chao was now on guard at Seol.
