Han Yuram's Emerging Soul

Hey, did you hear a growl?"

Yeongwan began to visibly sharpen his hearing, as did Ling Fei.

"Yes, I heard it. I heard the growling sound Yeongwan was referring to."

Lee Gon and Bai Lu seemed to be getting ready to take out their swords. As for Asahi, he was holding his magic staff tightly.

"Wait, what's that over there?"

Taeshin pointed in the direction where he saw a black shadow walking quickly from the left side to the right side. Feeling something strange and suspicious, Taeshin followed where the black shadow went.

"Hey, Taeshin, where are you going!" Lee Gon shouted out.

However, his shout went completely unheeded. Taeshin was instead busy chasing the black shadow, until he didn't realize that he had gone too far away from his friends.

"Where did Taeshin go?" Lee Gon looked around for Taeshin, "ah, never mind, let me look for him."

Lee Gon decided to look for Taeshin who left to chase the black shadow.

"Uh, where's Yeongwan? Wan~ah!" shouted Bai Lu who realized Yeongwan wasn't with her. She decided to leave her friends and look for the little boy named Yeongwan. Without realizing it, Bai Lu had also gone too far away from the others.

"Where did everyone go? Hey, Han Yuram! Where are you going?" Asahi shouted out then followed Bai Lu from behind, to catch up with him.

One by one, everyone began to drift away. Once everyone began to separate, they realized that this was one of the plans of this illusory forest, to have them all spread out and look for each other. If they were separated, perhaps this would be an easy way to defeat them quickly.

"Where am I? Why aren't the others there?"

Choi Bai Lu, who started to realize he was separated from his group of friends, immediately ran and looked for everyone.

"Ling Fei! Lee Gon! Yeongwan! Kang Taeshin! Asahi!" shouted Bai Lu as he began to call out to each of his friends who had disappeared from his sight.

"Did I get lost? Why have I been circling around this place?"

Bai Lu looked confused because it seemed like he kept passing the same place over and over again, and was stuck in this illusory forest alone without any of his other friends.

"How is this? How do I get to see my other friends? What should I do?"

While Bai Lu was trying to find his other friends, Ling Fei was seen running here and there in search of his siblings. He looked panicked and also worried because since earlier, he had been unable to find his brothers who had gone nowhere.

"How is this? Did I get lost? Han Yuram where are you? Lee Gon! Asahi! Kang Taeshin! Yeongwan~ahh!"

Feeling that his efforts were in vain, Ling Fei finally gave up. Starting to feel thirsty, he searched for a spring near the forest. Once he found the river, Ling Fei smiled widely as he ran towards the riverbank, to drink the small amount of water there.

As he was fetching water, someone suddenly hit him from behind, causing him to fall unconscious and lay helplessly on the riverbank.

"What should I do? They all disappeared like the earth swallowed them up. Now, I'm completely trapped in this illusory forest! I'm so unlucky!"

Asahi grumbled to himself. He was annoyed that he had to be separated from his other friends in the illusionary forest. Without realizing it, someone from behind her hit her head so hard that Asahi also fell unconscious and unconscious.

One by one, they began to lose consciousness. Yeongwan, who was lost, fell unconscious when he ate a mangosteen he found from one of the trees, because he felt he was getting hungry.

Lee Gon himself also fell unconscious when he accidentally saw something in the illusory forest. An unknown person hit his head so hard that he lost consciousness instantly and fell to the bottom of the dirty ground.

"Han Yuram please help me. What should I do?" Bai Lu looked panicked and desperate, for now she was completely alone and had to struggle alone to escape the bondage of this illusory forest.

"Go towards the East, Yuram in the future!"

"Who is it?" shouted Bai Lu suddenly, as he heard someone's voice, but there was no form.

"I am the Han Yuram of the past. I'm inside your soul," he said disembodied, but his voice could be heard clearly by Bai Lu.

"Wait, how can that be?" asked Bai Lu, not understanding.

"I can't wake up from my current soul, before your purpose and your task of coming to the past is completed."

"My purpose? What do you mean by that, Yuram~shii?" asked Bai Lu even more unable to understand what his statement meant.

"I can't answer your question any further, because I also have a mission that I must carry out while you carry out your task. All you can do right now is go to the East. There will be someone waiting for you. Use your mind, your eyes, your hearing, and your heart so that you can get out of this illusory forest. That's all I'm saying to you, Yuram~shii Go!"

"Hang on, Han Yuram! Don't go!"

Han Yuram's voice from the past just disappeared. In fact, this was a golden opportunity for him to talk to her longer. Even though he couldn't meet his true form. However, his voice alone was more than enough representation.

"Should I go to the East according to what Han Yuram said to me in the past?" muttered Bai Lu, looking confused and uncertainty clouding her mind.

After deliberating and thinking about many things, Bai Lu decided to go to the East according to Han Yuram's request in the past.

Will Choi Bai Lu succeed in getting out of this illusory forest trap? Will he manage to save his friends? Then, what is the fate of Kang Taeshin? Does this illusory forest have a purpose of its own?
