Chapter 5

“The grandfather said this house was a blessed home . Every incoming landlord succeeded . ” (t/n: i dont think she’s talking about her actual grandfather)

“That’s what the granddad said?”

“Yes! You don’t know how much you’ve been saying to me . ”

“……”

“But I was surprised to find out about the ghost when we met a little while ago . ”

Did you buy it without knowing…

She’s got a little sister, and I don’t think there’s a reason to come into that ruffian house .

A blessed house? Will you leave the house after all the success? Even the grandfather lied to the fullest . If I had sold such a thing, I wouldn’t have reduced the price of my house . This was the grandpa, the owner of the house, who turned a blind eye to the heroine . Unaware of that, Annmarie laughed as brightly as the sky .

“I guess there was a misunderstanding . I think he was worried about me, too, but I’ll let him know that he was mistaken next time I see him . ”

…Is the heroine okay

Of course, there’s no such thing as ghosts in that house, so it’s okay to just live . But apart from that, I thought, how can she be so gullible, can she even get through this tough world . Oh, as it proves that a good man exists for the main character, in the ending part of the novel, her rich grandmother will get the inheritance and return their fortune .

So it doesn’t matter .

“I’m glad there are so many good people living in my neighborhood . Please take good care of us(she & her sister) from now on . ”

I drew my lips along the bright woman in front of me and smiled thinly .

“Yes, me too . ”

*********

“Hmm, I just want to move on . ”

That evening, I looked out the window at the sunset and thought rather seriously . At first, I just didn’t want to worry about it, but as I went through the meeting with the heroine, I felt a steaming sensation . According to my experience, this instinctive intuition is not to be ignored .

“Eup!”

At that moment, a noise from under my feet disturbed my ears, but I ignored it . I saw the woman standing at my door earlier, and I could see her growling . (?) I have been thinking about Coco for a long time . It’s been a long time since my previous life’s memories came to my mind . Since I almost lost my feelings at the lab, I’ve been missing them . This feeling was similar to when I met Lakis Avalon . Maybe that’s why I liked the heroine a little bit……

“Woah! Ugh…”

“Oh, shut up, I can’t think . ”

I was caught up in a feeble sentiment and then dragged back into reality . The person who was stunned under me was completely awake, and the noise from the eardrum became more intense . I glanced down and looked at the man I sat on . A man hanging in the air was shaking like a cocoon in a white thread . It was so disgusting that I still sat cross-legged on the man’s back and moved the thread holding his body to the ceiling . As the body began to shake back and forth in midair, the sound of quick breathing sounded inside the silent room .

“I like this house . The ceiling is high and the soundproofing is good . ”

“Huh…”

“How much is a house like this? 5,000 gold coins?”

Before I knew it, all the men stopped fighting and were groaning to death . This was a mansion and a chapel . The distance from the ceiling to the floor was about 10 meters . So unless he was very unlucky, he wouldn’t die if he fell, but he was a terrible man .

Does he have a fear of heights?

“Well, if you’d listened, you wouldn’t have had any reason to be like this in the first place . ”

Well, it wasn’t for me to know, so I swung the body of the man hanging in the air back and forth, appreciating the red evening scene outside the window . It was quite a leisurely and peaceful scene just like this, but it wasn’t the case at the bottom . People who came up to me, to protect the man, were lying on the ground in a pool of blood .

But don’t get me wrong .

I’m in the middle of a job right now . I meant that I didn’t have a hobby of playing games with people . My purpose today is to get some information out of this guy…

“Ah, I’m getting a little annoyed…”

Actually, I accepted it because it paid a lot of money, but this kind of request was a little annoying .

Pop .

I slowly began to reduce the number of strands fixed to the ceiling .

“I just want to make a commission to receive a fine payment . ”

Snap .

As the thread broke and the body fell down slightly, the man’s breathing gradually became unstable . Finally, when there were only a few threads left on the ceiling, I casually lowered the white-faced man’s face and asked, looking at him .

“Mister, can’t you just tell me what I asked you for?”

Then my pedestal began to throb again .

“Eup! Eup…!”

The eyes that looked at me changed . I could feel the sincerity of what I said . I guess I finally thought of saying it . I loosened the mouth of the man I was blocking .

“No, the location where the document was hidden…”

He answered what I asked earlier with a shudder . The truth is that the man’s life was told to be spared by the client . But the man who didn’t know that was desperate . Fallen outside the large window that filled the wall of one side is now red . The man is more of a coward than I thought, so I could go home early today .

***

After a while, I walked alone through a narrow alley .

Come to think of it, dinner wasn’t ready . I’ll grab something when I get home . Then suddenly I noticed an old lady walking with a heavy load . There was no one else around . I turned my foot toward the line of sight .

“Grandma, let me help you . ”

“Ayu, it would be heavy . ”

I did not think it was that heavy because my body was strengthened when I was in the lab . If I had to do it, I would pull the thread out of my hand and support my weight . I could control the hardness and thickness of the thread I pulled .

“Thank you . I’m just here thanks to you . I’ll give you some of this . ”

Thanks to the grandmother’s warm heart, I got two apples I hadn’t seen before .

“Thank you, granny . ”

In fact, I don’t do these things because I had a strong sense of respect for adults or because I had a high sense of morality . Every time I take on a job request, I’ll do a little good thing . I was trying to make ends meet, but I knew it wasn’t really a good thing to do . So it was a decision . Of course I didn’t feel guilty about doing this .

After a while I went home and prepared for a late dinner . I was going to have a simple sandwich with fresh lettuce and tomatoes with the whole wheat bread I bought in the morning, and with bacon & sauce . In fact, after being at the institute, I didn’t have all the nutrients, but I was still eating all three meals . I took the groceries out into the kitchen, and I was about to cook them, but I suddenly slipped my hand toward the window . A half-clear white thread that stretched out according to my will penetrated the curtain .

Sfx! (it says 촤 르륵! but i can’t find a translation)

As soon as I made a small gesture again, the thread moved and put a curtain on the window . The interior of the house quickly became dark because of the custom-made black curtains . This time, the thread that stretched to the other side lit the light . Of course, there was no electricity here, so it wasn’t a real light . It was a thing made by eastern alchemists . All household items, including food heaters, portable freezers and gas stoves, were created by alchemists in the east . Of course, its appearance was very different from the modern ones that I knew, but its use was similar . It was a very easy-to-use, semi-permanent structure, and even if an aristocrat paid a low price, it would still have been a huge success . The alchemist made a large quantity of goods and distributed them at a low price . So now you can see it among common citizens like me .

For your information, The great alchemist was one of the masters in the novel . Of course . I’m the one who didn’t have that much weight in the bull’s eye? Things on the market, named after him, had the abbreviation ‘DS’ . Of course, he wasn’t my favorite male character in the novel . But it was true that life became convenient, so after praising him for a while, I started to make sandwiches again . The materials stitched on the slender silver thread danced alone in the air .
