Chapter 217 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work — Part 2

Chapter 217

Kim Soleum experiences a temporary return to human sensation through the effects of Nostalgia Kitty, feeling the clarity of human skin and hands before the illusion breaks, revealing his true grotesque form of divine hooves and melting flesh. The realization that the item only grants human physical sensation but not human emotional stability causes a surge of unbearable fear and despair. After moving a Badger Mask wearer to a bed, Kim Soleum escapes his containment cell during a High-Grade Darkness containment failure, using thick black smoke to navigate. He moves through the facility, bypassing security, and reaches the 17th floor Research Team 1 office. There, he confronts the night-shift researcher Kwak Jekang. Kwak Jekang, driven by scientific madness and ecstasy rather than fear, offers a 'Red Finger'—a Twilight Grade Darkness that enforces vows through death—to ensure Kim Soleum's cooperation. Under threat of death via smoke suffocation, Kim Soleum forces Kwak Jekang to vow never to go against his will, subsequently severing the researcher's pinky finger joint to seal the vow. Having secured a forced ally, Kim Soleum returns to his cell with a new objective: to uncover the secrets of the company and the truth of his existence. Upon returning, he finds the entity 'Brown' (Good Friend) waiting on his bed.
