A pretty girl, dressed in a beige coat, looked out of her balcony at the beautifully illuminated Seoul. She approached the metal fence that stopped her from falling down the balcony and rested her arms on it, sighing. Her eyes danced from one place to another, following the night stars. A cold breeze made her flinch and running her fingers through her raven locks on her forehead, she headed inside her cozy home.
Kang Seulgi walked to her kitchen to prepare a cup of ramen. She is a well-known witch hunter, but for the wrong reasons. She was not only the worst of them all but also poorly trained and has never actually caught a single witch. It was her third year still being what they would call a rookie, since she hadn't made her debut yet by catching a witch, on top of that none of her seniors wanted to coach her, just because of the rumors.
"Another year like this, Kang" She told herself as she took out a cup of instant ramen out of the cabinet. Her parents practically begged her to study a real career and major in something, anything. She was stubborn enough to convince them that this was her calling and at the end managed to even get a small apartment from them. It was something small but cozy enough for her to live, located in the heart of Seoul, her apartment was all white with grey ceramic flooring, white couch, white bed, white cabinets, white walls. It was a little bit annoying for Seulgi to see all that white, but never bothered to redecorate anyway, she had no money after all.
She placed her cup on the kitchen island and prepared the water, in the meantime, she contemplated the steam coming out of the metal teapot, what would her life be like if she actually had studied anything else? Would she be rich? Would she be famous, but for good reasons? She shakes her head in disapproval, I just need to concentrate a little bit more, she thought. While pouring water in the cup of ramen, her phone vibrated, she didn't bother to look at the notification thinking it was her mom so she ignored the message and headed straight to the living room to watch a variety show. After she finished eating, she fell asleep for a while and woke up until 12 am when she checked her phone.
The message was from her boss and read:
Kang Seulgi, meet me tomorrow, I have a very special offer for you and I think this mission will change your life completely.
She bolted off of the couch and jumped happily while cheering for herself, did a celebration dance and ran to her room, not forgetting to turn the TV off. Seulgi opened her closet to reveal her clothes, all different colors and styles. She picked all black, coat, pants, heels, everything, looked for her pink book from the academy that has all the theory on how to hunt a witch and threw her body on the bed while hugging it tightly.
"It's your chance, Seulgi... show them what you've got!" She cheered and finally prepared to sleep. The whole night, the hunter couldn't stop rolling over and opening her eyes to take a peek of the hour, waiting for it to be day already, just like a little kid in Christmas. Her alarm went on and woke her up at 8 in the morning, she jumped out of the bed and took a speedy shower, had a toast for breakfast and rushed downstairs to catch a cab. After five minutes or so, she finally managed to catch a cab and headed to her boss' office.
"Good morning Mr. Park" Seulgi greeted her tall and young boss.
"Good morning, Seulgi" Chanyeol greeted her as well. The man was only two years older than her and had already caught five witches in a row making him the best witch hunter in Seoul. He's tall as hell and seems oddly younger than anyone in the office, making the people mistake him for a dongsaeng.
"Did you sleep well?" He asked, motioning her to sit on one of the leather chairs in front of his desk. Entering his office was like stepping inside of one of those 'antique' stores, all filled with strange devices, possessed dolls trapped in their cages Annabelle style, silver crosses, amulets, holy water, anything one could imagine, sitting on his wooden shelf, behind him.
