Martial Arts Returnee's Game Broadcast-Chapter 371: Spirit World

 Ha Eung Eung and Mark 2 had many questions about the Spirit Realm, and the light spirit answered them obediently.

"I’m a baby spirit,"

"If I use all my power, I can only shine brightly until I recharge."

"Older spirits can shine brightly too."

The usefulness of the answer was secondary, but the voice and cautious attitude were incredibly cute.

"So cute.""I bet Mark 2 would be like that if only her soul remained.""I want a spirit contract.""When can we get 1 player 1 spirit?""Hmph, I don’t have a spirit.""I’ll trade my cat for a spirit.""What breed is your cat?""Sgorjabr breed.""Is it an expensive breed? Do you have a pedigree?""It’s a country mutt...""Country mutt, haha.""No pedigree, haha.""You can’t trade a mutt for a spirit!""Why not? Spirits only shine and have no use anyway, right? 😭😭"

The players’ first impression of spirits was somewhere between "Too bright, it’s painful" and "Small and insignificant!"

"Question. Why did you emit such a blinding light in front of Master and Mark 2 at first?"

"I thought you seemed weak, so I blinded you."

"Once I take your sight, you’ll crawl on the ground."

"I can play with you for a long time that way."

"...Master. Mark 2 is scared of spirits."

After all, spirits are typically pure beings, not necessarily good beings.

Spirits are creatures of curiosity with no concept of good or evil.

Like children ripping off dragonfly wings or stomping on ants, they destroy simply because they want to.

They don’t even realize that it’s evil.

They have no reason to consider the circumstances of insignificant life forms.

"I’m sorry to the people of the continent."

I had made these terrifying, purely evil creatures appear in the game, and it was obvious that the human world of Gladiator Raising would go into chaos.

But what kind of people lived on the continent, and what kind of players were they?

"It’s Mark 2! Hit her!""Give me my money back!""Wow! You know the Silent Swordsman!""I can’t resist fireworks, it’s a public confession!""So, Master, when are you going to raise the half-demon?"

"No, I’m not really sorry."

There’s a saying among players: "Every player has a game suited to their level."

For Gladiator Raising players, the spirits born of primordial evil and pure innocence were probably fitting for their level.

The continent, either way, had to prioritize interrogation.

[Where did you learn telepathy?]

"Telepathy is cute."

[The ability to transmit voices in your mind.]

"Spirits can do it. It’s a superior ability of spirits that lowly creatures from the middle realm can’t use."

Mark 2 grabbed the spirit’s backside again.

"Eh, don’t bother me."

Unlike Mark 2, who had some sense of self-awareness, spirits tended to fall into species superiority and often looked down on others, whether they were strong or weak.

I was certain that anyone who shared a bond with these crazy spirits had to be out of their mind.

[Are all light spirits like you, weak?]

"No. I’m a baby spirit. I’m a light spirit born from a little spark of a bonfire."

[What can stronger spirits do?]

"We can shine brightly, then blast light everywhere, like Pyaaatt and Pyaaahhh."

"Us babies can only resist strong light when we work together."

[Then, could you guide us to the stronger spirits?]

"How strong are these spirits?"

[Spirits strong enough to take us to the Spirit King.]

"Fantasy feature: Spirits are divided into low, middle, and high rank.""There’s even an ultimate rank?""Spirit King is genderless, that’s the norm.""How does it work without gender?""I don’t know, they probably don’t do it.""What a tragic life form.""A species that never knows intimacy...""Is that why they became so cruel?""It’s convincing."

Light spirits are generally specialized in dazzling light.

After walking for a bit, the dazzling light flew up into the sky, swirling. Thanks to capturing the spirit, I now understood the meaning of "bright light before conversation."

"How rude. These spirits think Master and Mark 2 are /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ lowly creatures. I must show them who the true apex predator is."

These lowly light spirits, full of excitement at blinding their prey by taking their sight.

Because of them, the plants in the Spirit Realm, which thrived on the light, grew very tall.

No wonder Mark 2 preferred to travel through the bushes, avoiding the light.

‘This is the way of the animal.’

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

In the Spirit Realm, there was a path dug under the bushes to avoid the light spirit’s dazzling attack.

Squirrels. Snakes. Rabbits.

Small earth creatures made of clay occasionally poked their heads out from the bushes, staring at Ha Eung Eung and Mark 2.

"Master. These are strange animals."

[They’re probably spirits.]

"Yes, they’re earth spirits."

Mark 2, curious, squatted down and approached a small rabbit.

The clay rabbit, which had been staring at Mark 2’s outstretched hand, suddenly turned and kicked up a mound of dirt with its hind legs just before Mark 2’s hand could touch its body.

"Eh! Eh, eh!"

Mark 2 tried to cover her face with one hand, squinting her eyes and attempting to stop the dirt mound with the other hand, but it was useless.

Soon, from the nearby bushes, an earth mole and an earth squirrel jumped out, tossing dirt with their front paws, and an earth snake spat dirt from its mouth, showering it from above.

"Hahaha.""What is this? Hahaha.""The Spirit Realm initiation ceremony is tough.""Dirt terror, hahaha.""Spirits are so aggressive, hahaha."

"Master...!"

I wondered when she would show that she was living strongly.

I had some doubt whether a spirit contract would really change anything.

I understood that she was conserving mana, but wasn’t she just passively enduring too much?

Thud.

Thud.

Ha Eung Eung lightly struck the ground with her front paw, and a wave of dirt surged, falling noisily over the earth creatures.

Startled, the earth creatures scrambled to run.

The light spirit sparkled with pride as she watched them flee.

"Good. They were lowly creatures of the earth. Even their fleeing is ugly. Hehe. So inferior."

"......"

These spirits really had terrible personalities.

After meeting and chasing away the wild earth spirits three more times, we finally arrived at a large stream where a strong light spirit appeared, shining brightly.

"Huh? What are you looking at? Do you want a beating?"

Unlike the baby light spirit, this one’s voice could clearly be heard despite the distance.

Ha Eung Eung recognized the power hidden within it.

Chunri Jeon-eum

Telepathy over long distances.

This technique transcends ordinary telepathy, transmitting thoughts over vast distances, unlike regular telepathy which works only within a range of about 20 meters.

This technique required tremendous internal energy if one didn’t know the right method.

"Chunri Jeon-eum is a technique that works best in familiar terrain."

Usually, elders from clans, high-level masters, or guardian spirits who live in specific regions use it.

Unlike humans, who like to wander outside their territories, spirits who live in a defined region use this technique more frequently.

"You’ve been found out. I’m scared, so I’ll run now."

The baby light spirit, scared, quickly ran away.

Mark 2 was disappointed, but Ha Eung Eung grabbed her arm and shook her head, signaling to let her go.

"Master. I’ll take good care of the sparkling one. I’ll feed her well, and if she doesn’t listen, I’ll scold her."

[Spirits aren’t pets.]

More importantly, if I tried to raise such a wicked creature, Mark 2’s eyesight would worsen.

Good vision is essential for a martial artist, so I could never allow a harmful creature to be near.

"Still not gone? Hehe. Do you all want to be punished like her?"

Unlike the baby light spirit, which had the shape of a firefly, the adult light spirit who could also use Chunri Jeon-eum had the form of a girl floating in the sky.

"Could you turn off the light? Let me see my body.""Ew!""Now I understand why it was so bright after the light faded...""The bright light spirits were trying to hide their hideous su-gwi-ja-pok-byeong.""Seriously, are you people getting mad since the evening? Are you all like this when you just woke up?""Teacher... It’s already time for dinner...""The su-gwi-ja-pok-byeong wakes up when humans sleep.""Why do I feel like I’m getting blamed for being stuck with you?""That’s what su-gwi-ja-pok-byeong does.""Human-shaped spirits are so cute.""For real, their voices are so cute.""Doesn’t she kind of look like a mesugaki?"

<Apple-buyer-happyperson donated 10,000 won!>

"Ugh. Just a little shine, lucky firefly. It suits my front door light more than a mesugaki."

"Wow.""The original mesugaki has arrived!""Take me, Apple-buyer-happyperson.""I can shine too, from my head.""Domestic incandescent bulb chatroom, hahaha.""Domestic front door light chatroom, hahaha.""These mesugaki fans have been living their lives waiting for this day."

What exactly is this shining girl spirit doing? Under everyone’s gaze, the girl inserted her finger into the lake and...

Bzzzzzzzzzz.

The entire surface of the sea gleamed brightly.

Drip...

Drip...

Fish-shaped water spirits appeared, writhing as they rose to the surface.

"Hehe. Bugs that can’t even breathe outside the water."

"The weakest spirits in the Spirit Realm, comparable to humans."

"Just a little shine, and they show their bellies. Hilarious."

"Hahaha.""This really sounds like a mesugaki."

The evolving baby light spirit, now a girl light spirit, had turned into a wild mesugaki spirit.
