Chapter 360

First, we moved to Koo Hui-seo’s mansion to find a solution. We gathered in a room not unlike a reception hall and brought up the topic that we were unable to finish earlier.

However, the problem was that Moon Issak’s whereabouts were currently unknown.

We had assumed the investigator was on leave and keeping a low profile at the mansion, but when Koo Hui-seo secretly sent guild members at my request, Moon Issak had already concealed his presence. Moreover, judging from the mansion’s condition, he had been absent for an extended period.

As soon as we heard that, Seo Dawon looked at Bang Eunji. Without even hesitating–and without any verbal instructions–Bang Eunji opened her mouth, “[Chaser].”

The whites disappeared from Eunji’s eyes, and her entire eye was dyed black. And, as if she weren’t fully present in our location, she looked around. However, even after using the skill, she ominously didn’t talk for a long while.

Eventually, after an hour, she said a bit angrily, “If Moon Issak isn’t dead, then he’s with someone who can defend against tracking skills.”

It seems she was a bit furious at not being able to locate her target.

Upon hearing that, the servants soon adopted grim expressions.

“Did he recover?”

“Who helped him? Since he took a paid leave of absence, it can’t be anyone from the association...”

“......”

Kim Olim and Choi Kyung-sik muttered to themselves; soon, the servants all looked at me. As soon as they did, I could guess at their unspoken words.

Dawon covered his mouth with one hand and looked down; before long, he noted, “...He must be searching for Lee-kyung-ie.”

I too had vaguely guessed that, but the mere thought that he still hadn’t given up on me made my jaw tense. Who knew that Moon Issak would be able to roam around, intact and fine...

‘I was too kind to him at the end.’

I should have ordered him to kill himself.

As I regretted my actions, Woo Ragi clicked his tongue, “That bastard, he must know that we’ve been revived somewhat.” His tone conveyed his annoyance.

Kim Olim also didn’t look too happy as she was concerned about the same thing, “Considering how he sought help from some collaborators and escaped... he must definitely be keeping that fact in mind.”

“If he can avoid [Chaser], then it’s virtually impossible to track him until he shows himself first, right?”

Not only did our carefully laid plan fall into disarray at that moment, but we now have another thing to pay attention to–to guard our backs–while in the midst of attacking Bae Jaemin.

Just then, Seo Dawon raised his head. He looked straight at me and said, “Moon Issak’s goal is Lee-kyung-ie. He may be wandering around Koo Hui-seo’s mansion right now.”

I flinched and my shoulders shook at his words–but that wasn’t because I was afraid of Moon Issak. However, Dawon-ie seemed to interpret my gestures slightly differently, he hesitated to continue speaking, pursing his lips in deep thought.

I clenched my fists and looked at the Servants. They all pretended to look indifferent, but I could sense that they were paying close attention to me. “Well, maybe I should... go outside the mansion. Moon Issak might appear, then.”

“......”

This wasn’t the safest method, but we didn’t have many choices left with our limited time.

Kim Olim observed a short silence before shaking her head, “Don’t overdo it. First, let’s try to gather some more manpower through Koo Hui-seo...”

“You know we don’t have time for that.” For the first time, I cut her off and spoke forcefully.

Kim Olim shut her mouth, but didn’t seem to accept my opinion. The same was true of the other servants. “...Of course Moon Issak’s goal is Choi Lee-kyung-ssi, but wouldn’t it be too dangerous to just leave the mansion when we don’t have any idea what sort of state or condition Moon Issak is in?”

I stared at Choi Kyung-sik before turning to look at Garam-ie.

Garam-ie was obediently sitting on the floor, cross-legged. His eyes, raised aloofly like a cat, were fixed firmly on my hand. His gaze, tracing the back of my left hand, was persistent and sticky.

To try and cut off Jung Garam’s focus, I crossed my arms, covering my hands, and called out to him, “Jung Garam.”

“Hm?”

So far, there hasn’t been any significant change except for a slight increase in levels and stats.

When I saw the title, <Sweeter than Candy>, I couldn’t help but think of Moon Issak. Without lingering further, I started to scroll down, slowly scanning my class skill list.

It seems as if my class skills increased by one every time I gained another servant. However, the descriptions were brief, and there were many skills I had never used before. So, I didn’t have a good sense of how to utilize them. I wasn’t sure how to use them effectively.

“Anyway, I’m sure I’ll figure them out once I use th.... Huh?”

However, my plan to seriously focus and study the skills was waylaid as soon as I read the description of the last skill–the one I had gained after my new contract with Bang Eunji.

Bewildered, I reread the description of the final skill. “Necromancer’s... I-It wants me to do what?!'”
