Chapter 456 — Got Dropped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work

Chapter 456

The villagers swarm Kim Soleum, declaring him the 'fortune of Jisan.' Agent Bronze, following Bureau manual protocols for when an agent is captured, decides not to fight the crowd but to retreat and return with proper preparation. He hands Kim Soleum a five-colored shoelace as a last resort for escape before running toward the entrance. Kim Soleum loses consciousness and wakes up in a tile-roofed house, his legs tied with a gold rope. Two villagers bring food and alcohol, performing a raffle where one stays behind. The villager remaining is Baek Saheon. Baek Saheon reveals he manipulated Kim Soleum into drawing the special prize to ensure he himself was no longer a target. Baek Saheon explains the horrific nature of the ritual: the 'chosen' are enshrined as gods, return with different faces and an inability to speak, and eventually hang themselves in the shrine, only to reappear and play in the traditional band. Baek Saheon expresses a mix of terror and relief, noting that because Kim Soleum has been chosen, the festival is over for him and he no longer has to return to the village.
