Seoul Object Story
Chapter 231: Jade Wall (6)

A place deep inside the Garden of the Mini Reaper had turned into a place akin to a hospital.

It was bustling with Mini Reapers constantly being moved from the courtyard of Sehee Research Institute and Black Reapers who were nursing the Mini Reapers who had become lead dolls.

While their mom was fighting, the Black Reapers worked hard to move the Mini Reapers, and before long, they were able to move all the injured Mini Reapers.

However, the Black Reapers only moved the Mini Reapers and had no idea how to treat them.

What should we do?!

The Black Reapers looked at each other, panicking. Then, a certain Black Reaper who always enjoyed watching TV with its mom raised its hand and expressed its will.

Bandage!

?

Most of the Black Reapers didn’t know what a bandage was, but they received information in an instant from the Black Reaper who knew about bandages.

Then, after countless Black Reapers scattered around and brought bandages back, they began to mummify the mini reapers.

Because of that, round balls made of bandages began to form in large numbers in the depths of the Garden of The Mini Reaper.

*********

Plop-! Plop-!

I slowly continued to walk toward the green jade man who was muttering loudly to himself. I hoped that he would realize that nothing would work and would be terrified.

The green jade man was scary, but it didn’t look that high-ranking, so it seemed that no matter what he did, he wouldn’t be able to harm me.

“Go back to your original form, lead doll.”

A soft voice accompanied the waves that swept over me which neutralized the mini reapers before.

Creak-! Creak-!

As my skin turned back to lead, the sound of an unoiled machine could be heard throughout my body.

“Go back to your original form.”

“Go back to your original form!”

“Go back to your original form!!!”

As I continued to approach without a care, the green jade man continued to emit waves as I felt frustration welling up in his heart.

It’s useless.

I used a large amount of firewood and turned the lead-turned parts back to their original state. And then I walked towards him again.

Plop-! Plop-!

As I approached him, the faint sense of helplessness and bewilderment that I felt from him grew bigger and bigger. But I wasn’t done yet. He was still far from despairing as much as he had tormented the Mini Reapers.

While I was building his despair, the green jade man suddenly changed his attack method.

A huge sphere made of jade and the enormous power gathered inside it.

Anyone who could sense energy would immediately realize the purpose of that sphere.

Area destruction.

It was a method of attack to kill all the humans in the vicinity.

However, since it was a physical explosion, there were quite a few methods I could use to counter it. I could block the explosion by isolating the space, or I could summon the Garden of The Mini Reaper to send the explosion back to the way it came from.

And there was also one other method. However, it was a method I didn’t want to use. That method was to use the Halo which had the ability to nullify all abilities.

However, the explosion was prepared quicker than I thought, so I panicked and used the most reliable and least useful method.

When I put the Halo on top of my head, I was struck by a pain that I never got used to no matter how many times I experienced it.

My whole body was burning, and it felt like I was going to fall apart.

But the effect was certain.

Instead of an explosion, a jade sphere that emitted intense light just remained in the air.

The explosion that should have completely obliterated the surroundings turned into white flames and began to fall all over Seoul like cute snowflakes.

It was pure white snow, one that had no physical shape, so neither did it pile up nor could I touch it.

The flames falling from the sky began to softly light up the dark night sky.

“H…how?”

The green jade man was very confused when he saw the white flames falling from the sky.

Then, as much as I felt pain from the halo, I glared with all my resentment towards the man.

*********

The green jade man who saw my expression slightly backed away as if he was a little scared. Then, as if trying to shake off his fear, he took another step forward and started controlling the green jade around him.

He turned the jade sphere into a wall and shot numerous rays.

He gathered the green jade and used it to strike like a hammer.

All kinds of attacks flew towards me.

I continued to ignore it with a blank expression. However, I had a slightly different thought.

Didn’t the halo that blocked ability not erase the ability that was created, but prevented the use of the ability itself?

However, that green jade man could use his ability within the halo area. Instead, the ability that was created was being nullified by turning into a white flame.

What’s the difference?

As I was thinking that, the scale of the green jade man’s attack was getting bigger.

The light that was initially aimed at destroying a narrow area gradually expanded its range, and now it was firing a light cannon that was destroying the entire research lab.

There hadn’t been an attack that defeated my Halo yet, but I decided to stop using it. After all, since the Halo wasn’t working as I expected, something unexpected might happen.

It wasn’t a high-level attack like the attack of the Giant Jellyfish, but the range of destruction was extremely wide.

And humans die even from those low-level attacks.

This place wasn’t a faraway place like America, it was close to Yerin, so it was dangerous.

I reached out and grabbed the space so that the attack wouldn’t cause any more harm.

Squeeze-!

Then, with the sound of solid jade breaking, part of the green jade disappeared into space.

Crack-! Crumble-!

Every time I clenched my fist, the green jade crumbled and disappeared.

“No! No, no!”

The green jade man groped for its missing wound as if looking for the missing jade.

I thought it wasn’t worth much because it regenerated in an instant…

But looking at his actions, It must have been more precious than I thought?

The tail of my mouth curled upwards, then I continued to tear the space. I did it until the huge green wall standing like a folding screen behind the green jade man completely disappeared.

When the green wall completely disappeared, the green jade man fell to his knees as if in despair.

“…”

And then, like a crazy person, he opened his mouth and continued mumbling in a way that made no sense.

The moment I thought it was time to wrap this charade up,

A certain being suddenly came into existence without giving any sense of discomfort, as if it had always been nearby.

[ Insufficient. ]

[ Utterly insufficient. ]

It was something ominous and hideous.

Even though it was right in front of me, I couldn’t feel it properly.

Even though it was right in front of me, it was a ghost-like being that I couldn’t see properly.

A human-shaped monster made of crushed flesh and ominous red jade.

It looked so ominous that I instinctively used my ‘eyes’.

< ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ >

But its killing condition was not properly visible to my eyes.

*********

The killing conditions for the monster that suddenly appeared was not visible.

Until now, although the destruction conditions were somewhat mysterious, they were always shown properly.

Like Steel Tower’s <Nostalgia> or Hungry Ghost <Stone Made by the Object of the Beginning.>

This was the third time that the killing condition was not properly visible.

Steel Tower with ever-changing killing conditions.

My killing condition, which was not visible at all.

Lastly, that ominous being whose destruction conditions were hidden by ■.

What should I do with an Object whose destruction conditions were not visible?

While I was thinking about that, the situation started to flow in a strange direction.

Crunch-! Crunch-!

I started hearing the sound of something hard being bitten.

The strange red being that seemed to be the green jade man’s comrade began to eat the green jade man,

It started from the head.

“Uh… why?”

The green jade man had his head grabbed, and he had an expression of disbelief.

“Forgive me! Oh God!”

At first, the green jade man was thrashing wildly.

However, as more and more of his head was eaten, his movements became slower, and in the end, he just lay there motionless.

“Save me… Save me.”

At the last moment, he reached out his hand toward me and said softly, begging me to save him.

Just like monsters whose brains were eaten, the green jade man, whose entire head was eaten, changed as if his soul had been sucked out.

It seemed as if he had been eaten by some origin, he was left lying around like a jade statue without even regenerating.

[ Insufficient. ]

[ Utterly insufficient. ]

The red monster, who had eaten the green jade man’s brain, looked at me and muttered that it was not enough.

[ I need your blood and flesh. ]

Then it started walking slowly toward me. It was staggering like a zombie.

It stretched its hand forward and slowly.

It slowly moved forward with a vague presence. Then, suddenly, it disappeared from my sight.

[ Insufficient. ]

And then it appeared right behind me and muttered so.

As soon as I felt someone grab my head, I opened my mouth wide as if screaming in surprise.

!

I almost screamed loudly, I was so surprised that I forgot that I couldn’t make a sound.

Of course, no sound came out of my mouth, which had no lungs, and the spatial control I used because of the surprise tore the surroundings apart.

However, even at the moment when the space was torn apart, the monster was not hit at all.

It felt just like a hologram or an illusion, but it still existed in that place where the space was broken apart.

All the techniques I used because I was surprised were ineffective, but only one had an effect.

Summoning the Garden of the Mini Reaper.

As the garden unfolded beneath my feet, the monster was pushed out of the space.

Woah, that was surprising!

As the distance between the monster and me widened, my firewood which had been shaking wildly in surprise became a little calmer.

Then, I put my hand on my heart and calmed my mind.

After that, I stared blankly at the indestructible monster.

The monster was wandering around as if it couldn’t see me in the Garden of the Mini Reaper.

Moreover, the monster was moving as if the Garden didn’t exist at all.

When I walked into the Garden of the Mini Reaper from the west side, it felt like I was popping out from the east.

What the hell is this?
