As my name was mentioned, Nari’s tense gaze turned chilly. Despite using perception interference to remain invisible, Nanhee in front of her was still looking straight at herself. Nari clenched her lips tightly, and Nanhee continued speaking.
“Yeah, that’s right. It’s you, Nari. There’s only one friend with such a soul, and that’s Yang’s daughter. I couldn’t fail to recognize you.”
Nari let out a deep sigh. Sensing that she could no longer deceive the woman in front of her, Nari slowly released the perception interference. Psionic energy scattered in the air like dust, and Nanhee and Nari faced each other. Nari spoke first with a hesitant tone.
“Hello. I’m sorry for barging in like this.”
“…You’ve grown a lot, Nari.”
It was a blunt but polite tone. Nari was always kind to her grandparents. Wasn’t the only person who took care of her when she lived alone the convenience store owner? Because of that, she couldn’t treat Min Jaewon harshly, and she couldn’t behave rudely to the elderly woman in front of her.
“Even if you say so, I don’t remember. Neither you nor this person called Nari.”
Nanhee laughed at that remark. She slowly approached Nari. Now that Nari thought about it, a green aura was subtly emanating from her entire body. Nari raised one eyebrow in confusion.
“Isn’t it… not good to emit that?”
Psionic energy, a superior form of psionics, could create illusions, but energy could be converted into power and used.
However, unlike psionics that use the power of the mind, the limits of aura are determined as it is known to use the power of the soul.
“…Well, I guess I have to introduce myself again.”
Every time she took a step, the aura flowed out, and green jewels in the shape of lotus flowers bloomed, shattered, turned into smoke, and repeated the process until disappearing.
As Nari stared at her with fascination, Nanhee laughed. Then she reached out her hand, signaling a handshake.
“I’m Arahan, the incarnation of the goddess, and a disciple of Kang Hana. You can call me Nanhee.”
“A disciple?”
Nari, with wide-open eyes, looked at Nanhee upon hearing those words.
Because she had only heard of a connection, she had never thought of being a disciple.
It was not just an influence, but a disciple. Nanhee laughed heartily at the stunned Nari.
“Well, twenty years ago, I awakened alongside your mother, and I learned a lot from the side. From handling this power to the mindset, everything.”
After hearing Nanhee’s words, Nari hesitated for a moment but then shook hands.
Wrinkles and refreshing aura were felt. Nari blinked at the unfamiliar sensation, then soon lifted her head as if trying to regain her composure.
“Um, what is this place?”
“This is a memorial hall dedicated to your mother. Also, it serves as my living space.”
“Here?”
Nari looked around. It was just an endless corridor and a spectacle of frames.
Whether she sleeps in the corridor or resides in another room.
“Don’t worry, I’m living well. I’m not sleeping in the corridor. This place is the optimal environment to preserve my life entirely.”
“You can read minds?!”
As Nari quickly stepped back upon hearing her own thoughts coming out of Nanhee’s mouth, Nanhee laughed.
If she could read minds on top of freely using her skills, it might be a bit dangerous.
Nari, who had been relying on the protection of the Archseat, the highest authority in the mental realm, looked genuinely perplexed as she stared at Nanhee.
Seeing Nari’s reaction, Nanhee laughed again.
“I can observe your actions, so I can see what’s in your heart. I’ve never intruded into your mind.”
[The barrier is still solid, so don’t worry, says the Controller of Chaos, gently patting your head!]With the assurance from the Controller of Chaos, Nari felt a bit relieved and snorted.
Thinking that her thoughts weren’t so easily revealed, she seemed to read even that, as Nanhee continued.
“It’s not that your thoughts are sloppy. I have heightened senses due to my six senses.”
“…You really know everything.”
Nari, who had been swallowing her complaints, rolled her eyes and murmured.
Seeing her reaction, Nanhee burst into laughter.
“Ahaha, you’re really just like your mother.”
“Dad and Panbok, they say. I am.”
“That means your souls are alike, doesn’t it? I was really surprised because you two look so similar. Maybe my son would have recognized you at once.”
Alike in soul. I have no idea what that means. It’s not like our personalities are similar, and saying our souls are similar…
“Does that mean our personalities are similar?”
“Well, you could say that. Your mom and you, both wrapping fragile and beautiful glass craftsmanship in sturdy packaging.”
“My mom has a better personality than me. I saw the photo frame, but I don’t say such awkward things to people I just met.”
“Appearances can be deceiving. Inside your mother, there was emptiness and suspicion. And deeper inside, there was a jewel-like kindness.”
With a firm step, Nanhee turned to look at the frame. The photo was still there. Opening his eyes slightly, Nanhee spoke.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
