"Because I want her;
Now, here, everywhere"

THEA FOLDED HER arms and watched as the man in front of her displayed a strong sense of superiority upon realizing his power. Jeok-bong stood casually by the boxing ring, occasionally touching his nose as though it held immense value to him. At the same time, Ms. Chu and Mun appeared to constantly shower him with praise.

"Jeok-bong discovered his power" Mun expressed his pride as Jeok-bong revealed his exceptional powers "He could be our only hope in locating the evil spirits who avoid the territory"

"You got that special power after smelling cow dung all your life?" Jangmul jokingly inquired. They were astounded as they had never come across such a capability before "I've never heard of such a power before"

Thea had to acknowledge that Jeok-bong's power was as distinctive as Mun's, yet the abilities of the others were equally remarkable, without a doubt.

"So you gained the power since your nose got bushed, right?" Mo-tak inquired once more to confirm that he understood correctly what Jeok-bong and Hana had shared upon their return from an unforeseen encounter with an evil spirit

Thea had observed a change in Hana's demeanor after she came back from the unexpected encounter. Being familiar with Hana's personality, Thea could sense when something was troubling her. However, this time, there was a distinct sparkle in her eyes, indicating that something had occurred which brought both joy and nostalgia. And Thea had a notion about the incident that had affected Hana.

"Yes" Jeok-bong nodded eagerly, wearing a confident grin on his face

"You're incredible, Jeok-bong. You found the evil spirit without the territory" Ms. Chu commended Jeok-bong, recognizing his exceptional skills

"I didn't do anything special. How should I put it? I didn't need to try, so it's like an innate talent. Gosh, I'm blushing" Jeok-bong declared, showcasing a slight air of superiority as he concealed his face in shame

"You still have a long way to go. You can't even pinpoint the origin of the smell" Hana exclaimed, she playfully sat down on a wooden chair near the table, displaying a mischievous grin on her flushed lips

"Jeok-bong. Can you even tell the smell apart from cow dung?" inquired Thea with curiosity, leading to Jeok-bong's facial expression disappearing entirely. He promptly crossed his legs and directed his gaze towards Thea simultaneously

"I think you've yet to understand this innate gift of mine. I don't throw up just because I smell dung. In that case, I would've thrown up my entire life" Jeok-bong clarified, confidently using hand gestures to emphasize his point, which Thea could clearly observe

"Hey, that actually makes sense. You have a blessed nose. You do" praised Ms. Chu, further boosting Jeok-bong's sense of self-importance

"Anyway, I did catch the evil spirit, thanks to you, so well done" Hana expressed her appreciation complimenting him on his success, evident from the slight grateful smile on her red lips
