Around three thousand Murim people were scattered around the world. Most of them were staying and active in their hometowns. The reason behind that was that New Murim League had not yet bought a building that could accommodate up to 3,000 people. And also because of various reasons that accumulated in their hometowns after returning to Earth for three years.

Although Supreme Dharma had explicitly prohibited relationships, the existence called human would always long for their hometown no matter what.

So, after occupying the ‘House of Goblins’, Yoo Seodam used his lifespan to make three ‘portals’ for them.

One in Beijing, one in New York, and one in London.

However, those who entered through Beijing could only return to Beijing, and those from New York could only return to New York. It was impossible to enter from Beijing and exit in New York. In order to make it possible, he had to invest more than 10,000 days of life. Yoo seodam didn’t do it because he think it was a waste.

Also, he left an additional portal there. It was none other than a portal that connected the Floating Garden and the House of Goblin.

This portal wasn’t available to anyone else and could only be used by a few selected people who got his permission. It would make traveling to ‘New Jungwon Moorim’ easier because they didn’t have to book a flight.

After completely eradicating the Goblin remnants who had completely lost their mind, modern-style buildings began to be built in the House of Goblin.

The buildings built by the Goblins had many mysterious structures that could not be explained by modern science. There were cases where buildings were hung in the air, or even on the clouds.

Yoo Seodam had a thought to recruit some scientists to uncover the principle, but he felt that it would not be as easy as it seems because it was something that was related to the mysterious ‘Sorcery’ used by the Goblins. Unlike Magic which attempts to identify all phenomena through calculation, Goblin sorcery uses another mysterious form of energy. It would be difficult to understand even with the help of the flowerpot and Yekaterina- No…..

‘Wouldn’t it be possible to know if it was Aracelli? She even achieved dimensional travel by herself!’

By the way, the funds that the New Murim League had saved up until now were completely wiped out. They used it to build buildings, connecting the internet, electricity, and ether. In addition, Jungwon Moorim means that in the end, each family would establish their own residence with some distance from each other.

(T/N That social distancing…)

They were already deciding which family would get which land. Looking at that Yoo Seodam once again realized that they were real Murim people.

Of course, the headquarters of the New Moorim League and the residence of Seol Jungyeon would be the House where the ‘Great King of Goblins’ once resided in. It was located in the center of the world, with high mountains in its vicinity and an upturned cliff reminiscent of a space station that stood sideways.

Looking at those building, Yoo seodam believed that in the past, when Goblins were still sane, they also had their own culture. Considering that the spirits of the Floating Garden had also lost their reasoning after their world came to an end, it seems like ‘destruction’ might be something that took even the essence of life .

“Amazing! Really amazing…”

Shin Hye-ji exclaimed as she busily took pictures of Seol Jungyeon’s new residence, where the internet and electricity were all connected. Of course, all of those pictures would be posted on Seol Jungyeon’s Social media and YTUBE later on. “This will completely elevate Murim’s status!” She shouted and excitedly ran around.

“Master! Can you please stand there?”

“I have work to do…”

“Please, just once! We need to take a picture and upload it!”

“······.”

Seol Jungyeon looked at Shin Hye-ji with confused eyes. She let out a long sigh before walking towards the position that Shin Hye-ji chose. As she stood there, the ray of setting sun was reflected on her platinum hair which danced around together with the wind. In this scarlet world, it seemed like she was the only one who shined. Even those light pink eyes, which clearly showed annoyance in them, somehow radiates a mysterious yet elegant vibe.

Seol Jungyeon’s dazzling appearances had a magical power that attracted the attention of not only Yoo Seodam and Shin Hye-ji, but also everyone. As evidence of that, the Earth’s engineers who were allowed to enter the dimension to work had completely stopped on their feet.

“Uh….”

When Shin Hye-ji forgot to press the shutter of her camera and stood blankly, Seol Jungyeon asked.

“Are you done?”

“Oh, no! Not yet! Ooh, you would be in trouble if you move!”

“…What kind of trouble are you talking about?”

“Anyway, it’s a big problem!”

Shin Hye-ji immediately uploaded the photo to Stargram without any corrections.

“Would you like to see it Master? Here, please check the comments.”

“Well…. There are too many hieroglyphs.”

“It’s emoji! Emoji!”

“Ah.. right.”

While the other Murim people adapted to the modern times since their return three years ago, Seol Jungyeon was trapped in the middle of nowhere and couldn’t do that at all. She was completely ignorant of modern culture.

Fortunately, Shin Hye-ji was always on her side to explain how to handle machines and other modern culture. So, it seemed like Seol Jungyeon had finished adjusting to modern times to some extent.

“Have you seen it? It hasn’t been a few seconds since it was posted, but so many people have already liked Master’s post.”

“…….”

Many people like her. Somehow after hearing those words, Seol Jungyeon had a bitter expression, but soon she once again smiled brightly.

“That’s a relief.”

“So, this time I’ll teach you how to write it. Later, if I don’t have time, Master can do it by herself.”

Shin Hye-ji taught Seol Jungyeon various things about social media. And amongst all, there was one function that piqued her interest.

It was ‘follow’.

“Did you say that if I do this, I can see other people’s posts?”

“Yes.”

Currently, Seol Jungyeon’s Stargram account had 0 follow and 20 million followers. It was still increasing by dozens of people every second. For anyone who was hungry for attention, this amount of interest would surely make them go crazy. but Seol Jungyeon seemed to have no interest in anything like that.

“Follow….”

Seol Jungyeon was busy pressing this and that with a frown on her face. And after some time, the frown on her face was completely overtaken by a bright look.

And then, Shin Hye-ji’s smartphone, which she kept inside her pocket, vibrated. When she took it out and checked it, a follow request from Seol jungyeon came to her Stargram account.

‘Wait a minute…..’

Shin Hye-ji’s eyes darted anxiously. She slowly raised her head and met the eyes of Seol Jungyeon who smiled brightly.

“Accept it.”

“Uh…, that’s….”

Shin Hye-ji stuttered. Seol Jungyeon was a social media star whose followers were increasing by dozens of people even at the moment. Every single one of her post always makes the internet go crazy. So, what will happen when someone with 0 follow suddenly follows someone?

Shin Hye-ji shuddered at her own thoughts. However, Seol Jungyeon didn’t give her any breathing space. She once again asked, however now she had a slightly depressed look on her face.

“…Why didn’t you accept it?”

It’s a very subtle expression change that could only be noticed by Shin Hye-ji. After looking at such face, how could she refuse?

“Of course I will accept it!”

Eventually, Shin Hye-ji closed her eyes and accepted her follow request.

[Notification off]

And turn her notification off. For the time being, she decided to keep her account sealed.

In the process of transforming the House of Goblins into New Murim, I had nothing to do. However, I’m staying in the dimension because I want to make sure there’s no problem with the dimension itself.

<There is no problem. However, in order to stop the dimension from perishing, the process of planting life is necessary.>

For that reason, there was no other choice but to hire a large number of gardeners to work in this dimension. It was much better aesthetically and mentally to hire a beauty gardener than to farm haphazardly like the spirits.

However, I couldn’t stay here any longer. It was because of a single email delivered through Yekaterina.

The email that started with the words [To magician Yoo Seodam] and ends with [We would like to visit you.]. Honestly, there were a lot of people who approached me because of Magic and Martial arts, so I wasn’t very fond of those who call me ‘Magician’. But it was an exception this time.

First of all, the person who contacted me wasn’t just anybody, but he’s the Secretary General of the ‘International Supernatural Phenomenon Association.’

Secondly, they contacted me because of something related to ‘Supernatural Phenomenon’.

When you hear the words ‘Supernatural Phenomenon’ the very first thing you would think of was ‘Huh? Isn’t that just a dungeon gate phenomenon?’ However, they were completely different.

Dungeon, deformed dungeon, gate and the Great Rift phenomenon were collectively referred as ‘Supernatural Phenomenon’, However, most of them had already scientifically clarified.

However, very occasionally, a phenomenon that couldn’t be explained scientifically occurred. It wasn’t a dungeon, gate, or a Great Rift, but truly an unscientific supernatural phenomenon. Very few people had experienced it, but everyone who has gone through it always gave the same statement.

‘It’s not the normal supernatural phenomenon. I could only say that it was a very strange supernatural phenomenon.’

But it was almost a myth, and it was never directly proven.

It was only natural for the Secretary General of the International Supernatural Phenomenon Association to contact me, who was a guild master of a guild that related to both Magic and Martial arts as well as a magician about something related to ‘Supernatural phenomenon’.

So, since I was in America right now, I decided to meet them.

After telling Seol Jungyeon and Shin Hye-ji that I would go back, I went to Park Seong-ho.

“Secretary Park Seong-ho, long time no see. You’ve worked really hard.”

“Oh.. It’s just you.”

“There’s almost no Murim people here, huh?”

“Well, most Murim people are really computer illiterate. But, sometimes, there are some unique individuals who work as either a lawyer or doctor… Well, still, to be honest, it would be more comfortable to have someone who was once working in the hunter industry like me, don’t you agree?”

The New Murim League no longer consisted of only Murim people.

Since me, their ‘Military advisor’ wasn’t someone who was originally from Murim. Park Seong-ho too, wasn’t someone from Murim. He was originally the Deputy Director of Korean Hunter association.

“By the way, I heard that Seol Jungyeon was going to teach you her Mugong, but I heard that you postponed it.”

“What can I do? Even though my dream has always been acquiring Mystical ability, but well… I don’t have time to do that now. I haven’t exercised for a long time, so I lost all my muscles. I’d rather retire like this and cultivate future generations.”

“Huh…. So you were thinking that way.”

It was unthinkable for me to put off my lifelong dream like what Park Seong-ho did. At the same time, I feel very sad for him. He was kicked out from the Hunter Association just because he didn’t have superpower and had to waste his time working as a Guild Secretary.

“Anyway, please pay more attention towards Master. I think she wants to see you more often, but she’s not doing it because she’s afraid she’ll be a nuisance to you.”

“I see……”

I feel sorry again after hearing Park Seong-ho’s words. But it can’t be helped. I was in a position where I couldn’t just stay on Earth alone. Even when my job is that of a hunter, I can’t hunt that much, so I don’t know what the hell was even happening.

Unlike Another League, who completely relied on Yekaterina, New Murim League was working properly thanks to the help of the skilled Park Seong-ho. In addition, they also had the unexpected explosive effect of social media initiated by Shin Hye-ji, and ‘New Murim Land’ that became the hub where all people of Murim could gather. So their development will be even faster in the future.

After greeting several more people that I knew, I left Murim Land and immediately called the contact number written in the email.

Then, the other party received the call even before the first beep ended.

“Hello. It’s Hunter Yoo Seodam.”

-Oh hello Magician Yoo Seodam. “Pleased to make your acquaintance.

I’m not really a magician, I’m just a hunter.”

-Thank you for contacting us.

“Yes. You contacted me regarding a supernatural phenomenon. Can I inquire it further?”

-It is something that can’t be discussed through the phone…

“Well, I guess so.”

-Do you have any preferred time or place to meet? I’ll go to meet you myself.

“It’s okay anywhere while I’m in America….”

That said, it’s boring to talk while relaxing at a cafe while having some coffee or sashimi.

“If you tell me the place where the supernatural phenomenon occurred, I’ll go there.”
