The summer god leads five lions.
02. Fox God's Bead


When Yeonjun approached Yuhwa again, this time the seasonal god stopped him.


이지은
Choi Yeonjun!!!


최연준
Grandma!!

Yeonjun pointed at Yuhwa with a grin.


최연준
Who is this guy that swallowed my fox bead?


이지은
This is my child.


이지은
And now you are the summer god you must serve.

Yeonjun, hearing the seasonal god's words, laughed in disbelief and said.


최연준
As anyone would like.


최연준
I can't accept that human as my master.

Yeonjun walked briskly and extended his hand to the seasonal god as he continued speaking.


최연준
As promised, I took good care of the temple before the summer god came. Give me freedom.


이지은
Fox God Choi Yeonjun. You know full well that you can't leave this place, right?


최연준
That's what I'm saying


최연준
Give me freedom

Ji-eun, who had been quietly listening to Yeon-jun, smiled and said.


이지은
You killed the summer god.


백유화
Huh...

Upon hearing those words, Yuhwa wrapped her arms around his neck. Ji-eun gently embraced Yuhwa and patted her.


이지은
Don't worry, baby. That guy can't kill Summer Shin anymore.


최연준
under......


최연준
Okay, seasonal god.


최연준
Instead, give me back my fox bead.


이지은
good.


최연준
What is the method?


이지은
You'll know when the two of you make a lion's oath.

After hearing Ji-eun's words, Yeon-jun trembled and shouted.


최연준
Season God!!!!!


이지은
Okay, that's it.

The seasonal god kissed Yuhwa's forehead and disappeared like smoke.


백유화
that...


백유화
A pledge... how do you do it?


최연준
what?


백유화
No... I have to find that fox bead.

Yeonjun chuckled and stroked Yuhwa's cheek. Then he slowly brought his face closer.


최연준
A pact?

When they came close enough to feel his hot breath, Yuhwa closed her eyes tightly.


최연준
It's simple. Just kiss.


백유화
crazy

Yuhwa pushed Yeonjun hard.


백유화
Uh, do I really need to look for the fox bead?


최연준
under...

Yeonjun said with a sigh, running his hands through his hair.


최연준
If it weren't necessary, I wouldn't be here.


최연준
Are you one of the stupidest people?


백유화
You are human too, so don't act human!!


최연준
what?


최연준
What am I, this great fox spirit? A human?


최연준
It's so amazing

Yeonjun nodded once and fox ears and a tail appeared.


최연준
Do I still look human?

Yuhwa shook her head.


최연준
Okay, now let's try to get the marbles back.


백유화
Should I...try it?

Seeing Yeonjun's face distort, Yuhwa quickly apologized.


백유화
sorry


최연준
If he were just human, I would have killed him.


백유화
why?


최연준
I will absorb the spiritual power in my bead.


백유화
Spiritual power?


최연준
Yeah, I can use my powers with that.


최연준
Damn... I have to explain all this in detail


백유화
I'm human too, so I'm not absorbing it?


최연준
That can't be true.


최연준
Because you are a summer god


백유화
what do you mean?


최연준
It means that God does not covet the things of the divine beast.


최연준
It's a good thing other ghosts aren't involved.


최연준
Maybe everyone was trying to kill you for my fox bead?

As Yuhwa listened to Yeonjun's words, the memory of when she was hit by a truck flashed through her mind.


백유화
So that's why I'm dead...


최연준
Okay, I have to find a way.


백유화
how?


최연준
To a god other than the seasonal god


최연준
...Let's quickly ask another god to remove the beads from your body.


백유화
...huh



최연준
you...


최연준
You are a walking death!!!

Yeonjun, who had just saved Yuhwa from a car accident five times, shouted.


백유화
Who knew I was doing this because I wanted to die???


최연준
I'm worried!!


백유화
Then just let him die!!!


최연준
What if my marble breaks? What if it falls into someone else's hands? Huh???


최연준
I have no choice but to protect you!!!


백유화
Then let's do it here!!


최연준
What here????


백유화
Right now, in this place,


백유화
kiss!!!!

Then suddenly the world went dark and a black ideology appeared.


집념
Beads... beads...


최연준
crazy...


백유화
Hey... what is that...


최연준
Thought body.


최연준
He's a guy who feeds off people's emotions. Judging by his appearance, he seems to live off obsession.


최연준
It's getting annoying...


백유화
You kill me!


최연준
You can't do anything without beads!!!


집념
Eat. Summer shoes. There are beads.

In an instant, the black smoke that had tied up the oil painting took it away.


백유화
Whoa!!!


최연준
human being!!!

Obsession hung the oil painting on a huge tree in an instant.


집념
Calling, friend.

The obsession grew and grew, little by little.


최연준
Because the beads can be made again...


최연준
Ha... It took 3,000 years to make...


백유화
Save me, fox...

Just as I was about to leave Yuhwa behind, unwilling to take the risk, I heard Yuhwa's barely audible voice.


백유화
please...


백유화
Save me...


최연준
Ha... I'm going crazy, really

Yeonjun clenched his teeth and quickly climbed up to where Yuhwa was.


최연준
Listen carefully, human.


최연준
This isn't to save you


최연준
It's for my beads.

Yeonjun wiped Yuhwa's tears and slowly kissed her. Feeling a sense of subordination, Yeonjun slowly closed his eyes.

Feeling the strength building, Yeonjun began to crave more. He wanted her to open her mouth. He needed a more intense divine power.


백유화
Huff, huff...

Yeonjun bit Yuhwa's lip lightly.


백유화
town!

Yeonjun quickly dug into the gap between her lips, which were slightly parted in protest. Feeling the fox bead enter her, Yeonjun slowly opened his mouth, feeling a faint sense of regret.


최연준
Look at you, human


최연준
How strong a fox I am.

Yeonjun hugged Yuhwa and created a blue flame with his other hand.


최연준
Maybe it's because it's summer, but my flames are blue

As she threw the flame into the black obsession, a loud noise was heard. Yuhwa covered her ears at the loud scream that felt like her eardrums were being torn.


최연준
Will that be enough, human?

Yeonjun blocked Yuhwa's ears with his spiritual power.


최연준
The seasonal god is right


최연준
He said that if we made a pact, he would tell us how to get the bead back.

Yuhwa glanced at the disappeared obsession and asked.


백유화
What is the method?


최연준
kiss


백유화
what?


최연준
I think it's a kiss.


최연준
I'm back and I'm done, do it again.

Yeonjun lowered his head and kissed Yuhwa again. The beads were already well within his body.


최연준
'When I was the messenger of the summer god last year, I didn't crave the divine power of the summer god this much...'


최연준
'Is it sweeter because it's human?'

Yeonjun slowly closed his eyes and gave her a longer and deeper kiss than before.
