The cold raindrops drenched the city. Under the rain, Specter stared at the sky where the band of light that brought the Heavenly Demon away had come from.

"Whoo, whoo...” He sank to the floor with a sigh of exhaustion. "I thought I was going to die."

Relief. He had no thought other than relief.

‘My determination to kill the Heavenly Demon with my own two hands is still there, but...’

If the Heavenly Demon was expelled even a second later, Seo Jun-Ho wouldn’t have been able to avoid a fatal wound. The Heavenly Demon had become that strong after absorbing neigong from two neigong chips. The Heavenly Demon had become an existence that could harm him in just one second.

"…Damn it."

The raw fear was still there. It was such a lethargic feeling as if he was sitting naked in front of a huge beast with its fangs exposed.

"Stop trembling, Contractor. It is all over."

A small hand above his shoulder patted him and comforted him. Seo Jun-Ho responded by forcing his trembling body to calm down. "I’m trembling because of the rain. The cold is making me shiver."

"Of course, did I say something?”

She smiled as if she knew everything.

Seo Jun-Ho flipped his wet and sweaty hair back before saying, "Yeon, stop this damned rain. The cold is making me tremble.”

- I shall...
