The Marrying The Grim Reaper
Chapter 01: The Soul Ball of the angel of death
On a clear day, spring seems to be over.
The steps of the residents of Seoul enliven the streets in Gangnam district.
The district is famous for its beauty.
A petite thirty-three-year-old woman ran while holding her laptop bag.
His long hair that was painted a dark brown color and was still half wet fluttered.
“Hahh.. tired once.” Lee Yumi stopped suddenly as her breathing started to fumble.
Lee Yumi is an online novel writer on one of South Korea's hot online novel platforms named X-Vel.
This morning he had to meet the editor at the X-Vel office located in Gangnam district.
Early in the morning Yumi had to take the subway from her home in Yongsan district to Gangnam district. Then he had to walk a kilometer to get to the X-Vel office.
Bruck.. Bruck..
People who are chasing time accidentally hit Yumi's body.
“Hah.. better I pull over for a while.” Yumi pulled over in front of a pastry shop, she gulped down some mineral water and intended to continue on.
Yumi rested for a while while watching the people who were crossing the street.
“Oh?? Awasssssss.” Yumi immediately ran towards a uniformed student who was crossing the street, but the traffic light had turned green.
BRUISES…
BRUISES…
Yumi managed to hug the student.
SEEEE!
A man dressed in all black pulled Yumi's body until his embrace on the student's body was released.
'Was that what came out of my mouth? Soul balls?? No way!' Inner man it is.
Something glowing from the man's body came out and entered Yumi's body through her mouth.
CIIIIIIII..
The sound of the tire squeaking of a delivery truck that braked suddenly.
The truck stops right behind Yumi's body which is currently in the arms of a man she doesn't know.
This incident made a rowdy rider and pedestrian.
“Mwohaneungeoya?? Pikyeo!” The truck driver pulled his head out of the window while shouting.
*Mwohaneungeya?? Piky! \= What are you doing? Move aside!
Yumi breaks away from the arms of a man dressed in all black and wearing a long black coat anyway, really not the right clothes for summer in Seoul.
Yumi trains the schoolgirl she likens towards the side of the road.
“You okay?” Ask Yumi to the student.
“Yes, eonni okay?” Ask the student to Yumi.
*Eonni \= Calls for older women spoken by women.
“Hmm. Next time don't cross recklessly, danger.”
“Iya, I'm sorry.” The student passed by, the mysterious man followed her.
"Hmm. The man is suspicious? Why is she following that student?” Yumi ran towards the mysterious man.
“Who are you? You've been following that student?” Yumi held the man's hand.
“YOU SAW ME??” Surprised ask.
‘What kind of question is it?’ Inner Yumi.
“I have healthy eyes, of course I see you. So who are you? Why have you been following that student since?"
“Shortly... a minute.. Can you really see me? Can you touch me and hear my voice??” The man looked confused.
“You're pretending to be crazy? In order not to be caught if you are following the student earlier?” Yumi began to get carried away with emotions because the man's response sounded strange.
“Of course I have to follow that student because..”.
“Arrrgh... arrrgh? Why does my stomach hurt so much.” Suddenly Yumi felt her stomach hurt so much that she was unconscious.
The people around Yumi panicked to see her.
“Agassi, are you okay?” A middle-aged woman was shaking Yumi's body.
*Agassi \= Miss.
“We should immediately take him to the hospital.” Said another woman.
“Jeogiyo.. Aren't you with this woman? Why are you keeping quiet? Quickly carry him.” Someone invited the sturdy man to talk.
*Jeogiyo \= Excuse me/sentences to attract someone's attention.
“I??” The man looked puzzled, he was drowning.
“Iya you! If indeed you do not know this woman at least use your humanity to help her, she is fainting!” The middle-aged woman scolded the black-coated man.
‘Humanity feelings? How do I know that feeling? I am not human! I am Han Gyu-Sik, ANGEL OF DEATH.' Gyu-sik Inner.
"Why even glare at ha?" Gyu-Sik is getting sprayed by the middle-aged woman.
Ninot..
The sound of ambulance sirens distracts all attention.
Health workers took Yumi on a stretcher into an ambulance.
"Company him."
"But I'm.." Gyu-Sik tries to escape.
"Hey young man!! Put on a little bit of your humanity! Let's get in!" A man pushes Gyu-Sik into an ambulance.
'What the fuck? Why am I visible to humans?' Gyu-Sik sits next to Yumi who is still unconscious.
"You're his girlfriend?" Ask the health worker sitting next to Gyu-Sik.
"Well, that's right, isn't it! I don't know him." Answer Gyu-Sik in a tinge.
'This woman foiled my duty to take the life of that teenager. But how did this happen? For two hundred and seventy years I have been an angel of death only this time my duty can be thwarted by men. Weirdo!' Gyu-Sik is busy with his own thoughts while continuing to stare at Yumi who is still drowning.
'Don't you think what I saw was right? Soul balls came out of my body and into this woman's body??' Gyu-Sik is still guessing about the extraordinary event that happened just now.
'How was the fate of the teenager? When he didn't die?' Gyu-Sik was really busy thinking about the incident earlier.
Finally the ambulance arrived at the hospital.
Health workers took Yumi to the emergency room.
"Sorry. Come with me." A nurse invites Gyu-Sik to come with her.
Although she does not know why she had to follow the nurse, Gyu-Sik follows her.
"Please fill in and sign here." The nurse takes Gyu-Sik to the patient data filling table.
Gyu-Sik looks at the patient form that the nurse is offering.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know that woman. I just met him."
"I am his guardian." A middle-aged man dressed in all black came over.
"Timjangnim you've finally come." Gyu-Sik was relieved his superior had come.
*Timjangnim \= Honor call for team leader.
"Okay sir, please fill it." The nurse delivers the form to Dong-Bong.
"Timjangnim what really happened?" Gyu-Sik panic.
"Shut up, wait a minute." Dong-Bong writes Yumi's patient form.
Dong-Bong is the team leader of two death angels, he is Gyu-Sik's superior.
Dong-Bong hands the form to the nurse, then walks towards the IGD room.
"Timjangnim what happened?? I really don't understand the situation." Gyu-Sik tailed Dong-Bong.
"Wait a minute, I have to see the boy, I want to make sure of something."
...----------------...
Yumi started to open her eyes.
"Where am I?" Yumi sat down and looked around.
"Hospital?" Yumi tried to get out of her treatment room, she flicked the white curtains.
A lot of IGD views.
"Excuse me. move aside.. walk away. give way." Some medics pushed the wheeled stretcher, carrying a young man whose face and body were bleeding.
Yumi shuddered in horror at the unusual sight.
But wait for something more unusual.
"Bahhhhh.." Yumi covered her mouth with both hands.
Yumi saw the young man's spirit come out of his body and followed a man in black.
The man in black and the spirit of the young man walked right in front of Yumi, passing Yumi just like that.
Yumi walks after them until she exits the IGD room.
"Wait..What is this?" Yumi stood right in front of the man in black.
"Hmmm? You see me?" Asked the man with a confused looking face.
'What the hell? Same question as the man. This question is popular, right?' Inner Yumi.
"The guy earlier? Who?" Ask the man in black who turns out to be an angel of death.
"Oh? Can you hear what I'm saying in your heart??" Yumi is confused.
The angel of death suddenly saluted.
Yumi grew even more confused, "Why did you suddenly salute me?"
"Yumi Lee?" Dong-Bong's voice from behind made Yumi turn her head.
"You're the man you were, right?" Yumi pointed at Gyu-Sik.
"Timjangnim what the hell is this? Why do people see us?" Ask the angel of death.
"You've gone there, finish your work." Dong-bong.
"Neither Timjangnim." The angel of death and the spirit of the young man disappeared.
"What the fuck??" Yumi's eyes opened wide, she couldn't believe what she had just seen.
