Holy Idol [EN]: Chapter 213

“Go over there.”

Rembrary nudged Sagamjae toward the rift. Sagamjae, caught off guard, asked in bewilderment, “Me, go?”

“Should I go, then?”

Sagamjae steadied himself, stood his ground, and protested to Rembrary in a low voice, “My face can’t get too messed up.”

“My face can get messed up, but my abilities must not be compromised.”

“Is that why you went on live TV to see ghosts?”

“Plenty of people see ghosts.”

Jongwoo, still sitting on his butt, muttered, “What is going on? What is going on?”

Rembrary asked Sagamjae again, “Is anyone dying today?”

“They’re not on my list.”

“So, no one is dying?”

“If they’re on another list, they’ll die.”

“You… are no help at all.”

Rembrary sighed, and Sagamjae followed suit.

“The rules are quite strict here.”

“Don’t talk to me. I am in a very bad mood right now.”

“…….”

Sagamjae looked at Rembrary, dumbfounded. *What is this? He’s pouting already? Is that really the holiest of holies?*

He seriously wondered what criteria this person met to become a Saint.

“Just this once.”

“What is?”

“I’m helping you just this once.”

Having been together for so long, Sagamjae eventually stepped forward.

“It’s dangerous!”

As Sagamjae approached the power line, a staff member, surprised, tried to stop him. However, Sagamjae quickly brushed past the person. He also lightly avoided the power line wriggling like an electric eel.

The staff member’s eyes widened at the sight.

Regardless, Sagamjae confidently approached the rift and stepped on the hand holding and shaking the power line.

The hand fluttered in surprise as it was firmly stepped on, but when Sagamjae pressed down on the back of the hand with his foot, it couldn’t escape.

Meanwhile, Rembrary took care of the fallen people and dragged them to the side.

Of course, in the process, he naturally used his divine power to quickly heal the injured.

“I’ll help!”

Seeing this, several others quickly ran out.

*Good people. But not helpful.*

When another staff member transported a patient that Rembrary was about to carry, Rembrary clicked his tongue in regret. *Does that person know they just took away the opportunity from someone who could have naturally recovered?*

In any case, as Sagamjae prevented the power line from thrashing further, many people besides Rembrary rushed to take care of the fallen. Thanks to this, the situation was resolved quickly.

Around that time, the sound of sirens came from outside.

* * *

―Our Yeonwoo is the kindest crazy person in the world ㅠㅠ

―Wow, manager…… beauty isn’t just about the swimsuit. The heart is even more amazingㅠㅠㅠㅠ

―Joseon Hwarang staff and actors, everyone worked hardㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

―Still, it’s fortunate that it ended like this; it could have been a really big accident if something went wrong ;;

―Seriously, how did they manage the power lines on the set? Are they crazy?

ㄴOther staff members aside, shouldn’t the person in charge be held responsible?

ㄴLooking at the short video that was uploaded, the power lines were thrashing around like giant eels

―F*ck, the antis won’t even click on articles like thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Uyeonwoo, who you call crazy and a trash, is more helpful to society than a hundred of you

―The antis are probably holding their mice and crying that Uyeonwoo would never do thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

―Aren’t they hating on Uyeonwoo because they want to hate, so they want Uyeonwoo to be crazy?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

―Uyeonwoo is one thing, but Uyeonwoo’s manager really suffered this timeㅠㅠㅠㅠ I’m sorry for criticizing your swimsuit for being too revealingㅠㅠ

While Rembrary was getting a check-up at the hospital, Jongwoo searched for articles about the incident.

Most of the articles that only covered the incident itself focused on whether the filming site was okay, whether the environment was poor, and whether more attention should be paid to safety.

However, articles that focused on the actions of Rembrary and Sagamjae were full of praise.

Occasionally, malicious comments were posted, but fans and the public worked together to bury them.

*Public opinion changes quickly. But it’s fortunate that it’s positive in this incident.*

Jongwoo was relieved but still checked a few more related articles just in case.

In fact, it was fortunate that he could afford to look up articles so leisurely when the idol he was in charge of was getting a check-up at the hospital after a major incident.

That meant that Rembrary and Sagamjae were not hurt at all.

At that moment, the door finally opened with a click. Jongwoo put down his phone and looked up. Rembrary was coming out in an examination gown.

“Jongwoo *hyung* [older brother/male friend]. Do you have a pen?”

He came over and asked in a formal tone. Having become accustomed to Rembrary’s royal tone, Jongwoo momentarily got goosebumps but pretended to be calm after spotting a doctor not far away and asked back, “Why a pen?”

“They asked for an autograph.”

When Jongwoo took out a pen from his pocket and handed it over, Rembrary took the pen and approached the person in front of the examination room door.

When the person quickly handed over a small notepad, Rembrary scribbled an autograph. Since they wouldn’t ask a sick person for an autograph, Rembrary must have looked fine to that person.

But wasn’t he signing for a bit too long? Waiting for a while, Jongwoo glanced at the paper as Rembrary kept writing something. He was writing about the blessing of God.

*Oh dear.*

Fortunately, the person receiving the autograph liked it.

After the signing was over, Jongwoo asked Rembrary when they came to a place with few people, “Is your body okay? When will the results come out? You’re okay, right? Is there anything else hurting? But can you not write about God in the autograph?”

“Ask one at a time.”

“Should I ask again?”

“I don’t know when the results will come out, I’ve already said several times that my body is fine, and nothing else hurts. Why the God talk in the autograph? Don’t you like my blessing?”

“People with other religions might feel bad.”

“People with other religions will think of their own religious gods and accept it.”

“…….”

*Is that so?* Jongwoo momentarily fell for Rembrary’s words and tilted his head.

“Okay. Let’s go now. I’m tired. I want to go back to the dorm quickly.”

As Rembrary yawned and walked to the hospital waiting room, Jongwoo followed, still tilting his head.

However, before arriving at the waiting room, Director Lee ran up and hugged Rembrary this time.

“Our angel!”

*Angel? Angel?* Jongwoo looked at the director with goosebumps.

*Why is that director acting like that?*

Then, he remembered that Director Lee was also among the people Rembrary dragged and moved to a safe place.

“In the world, well, anyway, most of the rumors in the entertainment industry are trash! How can they say such things about such a kind kid!”

The director let go of Rembrary, patted him on the back, and then hugged him again, patting him on the back as if he was overwhelmed with emotion again.

Seeing that, Jongwoo tilted his head again. But looking at him now, the director seems fine. Why was he passed out on set? Did he just faint from shock?

Jongwoo looked at the energetic director suspiciously. He thought the director would be seriously injured since he was one of the people lying on the floor. He looked as fine as Rembrary.

Rembrary poured out divine power while transporting people, and thanks to that, the director’s body became much healthier than before, and his complexion also brightened, but Jongwoo, who didn’t know this, couldn’t help but feel awkward.

“I am glad that at least the director recognizes my gentleness.”

“Of course, of course. I know it well now.”

The director patted Rembrary on the back and winked.

“Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Writer Yoon and make sure to increase Woobaekyeon’s role and importance a lot!”

He was about to say that, but another actor approached.

The director smiled slyly with a ‘you know what I mean?’ expression and stepped aside.

The approaching actor was also an actor whom Rembrary had moved from a dangerous place to a safe place while they were passed out.

That actor, who also played Rembrary’s mother, ran up to Rembrary, tearfully saying, “Oh, my son!”

Meanwhile, the director asked Jongwoo, “Where is Sagamjae? I heard he risked his life to stand on the power line? Really… does LLL [the entertainment agency] only pick angels? How can there be so many people like this?”

“I know.”

Jongwoo didn’t know that Sagamjae would risk himself like that, let alone Rembrary.

Jongwoo sniffed his nose, feeling proud for no reason.

“He’ll be getting a longer check-up because he was standing on the power line.”

“Was he hurt?”

“He looks fine to me, and he insists he’s fine too…….”

* * *

Sagamjae, who was very fine, was now looking at his face, which was displayed in large letters on his phone.

Humans were exclaiming, ‘Is that person the manager?’ ‘Does LLL look at faces even when hiring managers?’ ‘A hero with that face is risking his life to save people. Are you crazy? There’s nothing he doesn’t have.’

Another person might have felt embarrassed or proud, but for Sagamjae, who wanted to live quietly as a grim reaper, it was a very troublesome thing.

*Shouldn’t he have listened to that Saint’s request?* Sagamjae sighed and grabbed his head.

As if it was fun, Sajikjae sent a barrage of texts instead of comforting him, making him even more annoyed.

[You]

[Are]

[Done]

[For]

[Now]

[ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

*Whether this was a colleague or an enemy.* But while holding his phone tightly and catching his breath.

“Sagamjae.”

The voice that was like the beginning of this incident was heard.

When he quickly raised his head, Rembrary was walking down the hallway solemnly with his hands behind his back.

“What is it?”

Still, Sagamjae suppressed his confused mind and asked as usual. He thought it was because of that Saint, but in fact, he knew that this incident didn’t happen because of that Saint. Anyway, it was his choice to act on the request.

“How is your body?”

“I am a grim reaper, so I heal immediately even if I get a little hurt. But I wasn’t hurt.”

“That’s good. You have a lot to do.”

“…….”

“This time, it’s not about appearing in front of people.”

Sagamjae sighed and asked, “Then what is it?”

“It seems that rifts are often seen around broadcasting stations, filming locations, and stages. Do you know why?”

“I don’t know if it’s related, but there’s a story among humans that ghosts often appear in such places.”

“Before, only rifts were visible, but now, that hand… you saw it too, right?”

“Yes. Jikjae will have taken a related team and started an investigation.”

Rembrary looked around. There was no one. After confirming that, he approached Sagamjae more closely and asked worriedly, “I wonder if something similar to a demon king will invade here. Will such a thing happen?”
