Chapter 2

Black Magic Awakening (1)

“Ahh! Hah!”

Before he knew it, a day passed since he met the corpse under the bed .

However, Kang-jun’s daily life hadn’t changed much . The power of Hwanmong and black magic remained in his head, so he thought it was just a dream .

After all, it was unbelievable that there would be a corpse under the bed of his goshiwon .

“Hah! Aang-!”

But what were these strange sounds? The moaning sounds were coming from the room next to him .

He knew that the goshiwon was divided into small partitions . A goshiwon was a simple shack so there was no way it was soundproofed .

However, it was the middle of the day and the guy next door had brought his girlfriend over .

‘Damn! I really don’t want to hear these sounds . Damn bastard! You should go to a motel . Or end it quickly! Please!’

At first, Kang-jun had placed his ear to the wall of the room to not miss even one small noise . But that only lasted a short time . It wasn’t delightful eavesdropping on the love affair of others .

Then .

At that moment, something strange happened! The room next door became quieter . Usually they would be far from finished . No, it would just be the beginning . That guy had a lot of energy .

“Aw, what the? You’re already done?”

A woman’s voice mixed with complaint and disappointment could be heard .

“…Yes . All my power suddenly blew out . I’m sorry . ”

Kang-jun was surprised to hear the words from the next room . It was good because Kang-jun didn’t want to hear anymore unpleasant moaning . However, it was certainly strange .

‘Wait! Don’t tell me this is the black magic power?’

But then Kang-jun shook his head .

‘That is ridiculous . I have work in the evening so I should sleep a little bit . ’

Kang-jun lay in bed and closed his eyes .

Then something flickered above his head .

Unfortunately, he didn’t see it as his eyes were closed and the words disappeared .

‘Damn! If I try to sleep then that hell will come again . ’

He closed his eyes but couldn’t sleep .

He felt restless .

It was due to the affection from the room next door . Doing it in the middle of the day!

Anyway, he somehow had to get to sleep . Especially if he wanted to work at night .

However, he closed his eyes but couldn’t sleep because he kept thinking all types of thoughts .

After approximately two hours of pretending?

“Ah! Hah!”

“Ohh-!”

The uproar started again in the next room .

‘Ah! Again?’

Kang-jun frowned .

Did he regain his energy? What a great guy! Kang-jun admitted it!

But now wasn’t the time to admire such things .

‘I can’t stand it anymore!’

Kang-jun’s eyes flashed open . He was going to yell at them to stop or go to a hotel .

‘Please stop!’

However, the woman’s voice rang out before Kang-jun could speak .

“Eung? What? It is already over?”

“Oh, s-sorry . ”

“What? You are weird today . Are you cheating on me these days?”

“No . My body just isn’t good today . I’ll drink carp juice . ”

“Bah! That’s it! What juice?”

The atmosphere in the next room was abnormal .

Kang-jun sat there with a bemused expression . Why was this unusual thing happening?

It was silent but something strange was going on . Why did the guy next door keep on losing strength?

It happened twice .

Then Kang-jun’s eyes shone .

‘Yes! This can’t be a coincidence . ’

Once was a coincidence . But two consecutive incidents can’t be a coincidence .

At that moment .

‘En? What’s this?’

Welcome letters appeared in front of his eyes .

‘Black magic energy?’

However, the words faded away .

Kang-jun’s expression was blank .

‘What was that just now?’

He saw something that looked like it came from a game and then it disappeared .

‘Am I hallucinating?’

Maybe it was due to sleep deprivation .

Then .

Come to think of it, those words were familiar .

Black magic energy! That’s right . The words from his dream last night .

‘Perhaps?’

Kang-jun’s heart beat wildly . Maybe the black magic power phenomenon that happened last night was reality and not a dream .

“This is ridiculous . A futile delusion . ”

He couldn’t think of it as a delusion no matter how odd .

“Hyu!”

Then Kang-jun sighed and shook his head .

‘Damn! Well, okay . Let’s say this is true and it is black magic . Then it shouldn’t be used like this!’

He didn’t want to absorb energy from womanizers .

‘No . The abilities of black magic still aren’t clear . ’

Kang-jun used his imagination to think of various things it could be used for . Fantasy books made him try to feel for mana in order to chant spells .

‘Status window!’

Kang-jun even tried to summon a status window . This was similar to a novel or a game .

‘Huhu, if there really is black magic then I can’t live like a fool . ’

However, he tried this for a whole two hours .

It reached 8 p . m . and he no had results . He was now hungry . Besides, he had to go to work shortly .

Then it wasn’t true . He was mistaken .

‘Let’s cook some ramyun . ’

Kang-jun opened his door and left .
