The Third-Gen Chaebol Becomes a Genius Actor

Chapter 95: Evil Spirit (6).

Chapter 95 < Evil Spirit (6). >

Yunseo looked around as he stepped out of the filming set. He couldn’t get into the van since Taegyeom had the car keys.

“Ugh…”

It was unfortunate that the filming location was surrounded by nothing but grass and ruins, making it hard to hide his body. He dragged his trembling body as far away from the set as possible, but he had to stop halfway and lower his head because of the blood that was rising up.

“Cough!”

Seunghyun and Taegyeom moved their feet instinctively at the sound of someone vomiting.

“He’s over there!”

“My lord?”

Yunseo, who was writhing in the reeds, lifted his head sharply.

“What are you doing here?”

“Blood, blood!”

Taegyeom had such a keen observation. How did he see him when there was no lighting here? Yunseo scowled. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and saw that it was covered in blood.

Seunghyun scanned the area to see if anyone else was coming, and Taegyeom took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Yunseo.

“Didn’t I tell you not to come?”

How dare you ignore my words? He felt a surge of anger.

“My lord, we couldn’t just stay away.”

“That’s right.”

“If we didn’t come to check on you, Seohajun or Hongmina or the director could have been here.”

“Didn’t you think it was suspicious? If you just leave like that… everyone would be worried and follow you.”

And it’s the manager and the secretary’s job to check on this. Yunseo closed his mouth as he saw the two people who got along well.

“Let’s talk later.”

“When?”

“After this work is over.”

Taegyeom could be persuaded, but Seunghyun was not easy to deal with.

I’m the employer, why do I have to be flustered? Yunseo clenched his mouth as he felt a wave of emotions. It was probably because of the hallucination.

‘There’s no point in hiding it now.’

He rubbed his head nervously.

“Don’t you need to go to the hospital? Are you okay?”

“So you want me to quit when everything is set up because of me? I’m fine, okay?”

That’s true, but… Taegyeom walked ahead of Yunseo and muttered in a shaky voice.

“What if he does this every time he runs away…”

“Hopefully not.”

“Right?”

When Yunseo returned to the set, he felt everyone’s attention on him, even though they pretended not to look. He sat down and opened the script. It was the manager’s job to fix this.

“How are you, Yunseo?”

“I’m fine.”

“Really? Can you film?”

Taegyeom nodded his head as he glanced at Yunseo. Seunghyun stood behind Yunseo and crossed his arms.

‘It feels like someone’s drilling a hole in the back of my head.’

That’s why I didn’t want them to find out. It’s not a big deal, but they worry too much. Or is it not a big deal?

‘Well, anyone would be worried.’

Yunseo knew his body was fine, but they didn’t. And if something happened, the closest person would be the one to suffer. He felt a little better as he thought that.

‘I have a lot on my mind…’

The hallucination was quite serious. He sometimes showed his old self without realizing it… He could control his temperamental personality, but it was a problem for his acting.

“Where are you hurting?”

“I had to go to the bathroom.”

“It didn’t look like that.”

“You should know if that’s the case.”

Yunseo shrugged off Seohajun’s words and tilted his head back.

‘Ugh, this is annoying.’

Yunseo was also burning inside. When would he get used to this damn hallucination? He pressed his temples hard and tried to get rid of the ringing in his head. Of course, it wouldn’t go away just by doing that.

“Let’s resume filming!”

He got up at that and took a deep breath. He had no time to think about anything else.

The three of them found the altar that Heukyagyo used to use and were speechless at the horrible sight. Kim Leo turned around and gagged.

“Are you two okay?”

“We’ve seen a lot.”

“Me too.”

***

Park Sua and Father Raphael, who had visited the conflict zone in Africa, searched around the altar for any possible clues.

“We can’t leave it like this.”

The three of them, who couldn’t ignore the disgusting and horrific scene, became determined to find the true base of the Black Night Cult.

The scene changed, and the camera slowly panned over the back of a man sitting on a chair that was decorated like a throne in front of the eerie altar. A man with half of his face melted off, the bone in the arm of the cult leader crumbled with a creepy sound.

“Tsk… a half-baked one.”

His possessed body was not in a complete state. The leader flipped through the documents that the priest handed him, and he twisted his broken arm with interest.

The picture of Father Raphael in the article. The leader looked at the photo of the child that the body’s owner had brought with him and smirked.

“Bring him to me alive.”

It would be easy to transfer to a body of his own blood. It might be a bit troublesome since it was a priest’s body, but he could infiltrate it anytime if he found a crack in his mind.

And Father Raphael had a vague suspicion of this fact.

“The leader might be… my biological father.”

“What?”

“What did you say?”

Father Raphael brought out the documents of the victims of the devil worship ritual that he had found in the ruins and showed them to them.

“This person.”

“No, Father, I don’t understand.”

Park Sua frowned and asked, and Father Raphael calmly told them what had happened when he was young.

“That’s when I ran away with Father Leo and came to St. Peter’s Church.”

“Huh…”

Kim Leo washed his face dryly. He took a deep breath and said.

“I had a mother?”

“Of course you did, why wouldn’t you…”

Park Sua couldn’t finish her sentence. She knew well that the reason why Kim Leo had gone astray in high school was because of the finger-pointing at him as an orphan.

No matter how much Father Peter had become his father, he had secretly longed for the appearance of a child who grew up under loving parents.

Father Raphael also knew his feelings and silently spread the documents and showed him his mother’s picture.

“This person.”

“…”

Kim Leo, who found out that his mother, whom he thought had abandoned him, had actually sacrificed herself to protect him from the devil worship ritual, and the scene changed.

The three of them, who had finally found the true base of the Black Night Cult, finished their preparations and entered the base. Park Sua took pictures of the terrible atrocities that were happening in the cult with her phone, and the two priests ran forward to exorcise the leader.

“Sua, behind you!”

“What? Aah!”

Then, when the three of them let their guard down, a knife stabbed Park Sua’s side.

“Park Sua!”

Kim Leo kicked the cultist who stabbed Park Sua and pushed him away, and Raphael pressed Park Sua’s side to stop the bleeding.

“This won’t do. Take Miss Park and get out of here.”

“What about you, Father?”

“…I have to exorcise him.”

Kim Leo looked at Father Raphael’s resolute eyes and nodded.

“I’ll be back soon!”

Kim Leo carried Park Sua and ran outside. And then, the true face of Father Raphael, who had always been persuaded by Kim Leo’s argument and broke the principle, was revealed. He knocked down the cultists one by one and headed for the altar where the leader was.

“Son, didn’t you want to see your daddy?”

“…”

His face was distorted by the burn. Raphael knew that the leader had not fully possessed him.

“Daddy worked hard to raise you.”

“You are not my father.”

The leader’s goal was to create a crack in his mind by drawing out an answer.

“Well, yeah. I knew you’d say that.”

“…”

“Let me ask you one question. Do you know what I’ve been doing here?”

Father Raphael clenched his mouth. It was over if he got involved. He cautiously took out the holy water from his bag.

“Nothing.”

But Father Raphael, who could see his father’s face in the leader’s appearance, opened his eyes slightly.

“I just lit a fire in the human’s hearts’ desires. Just a little bit.”

“No, that can’t be…”

Then, the terrible situation was not caused by the devil’s command…

He unwittingly answered and closed his mouth. He had fallen for the devil’s whisper. The leader laughed with a torn mouth. It was creepy enough by itself, but it would probably be made more grotesque with additional CG.

“Look at me! What can I do with this body?”

His voice was croaky, as if he was singing. His body was twisted grotesquely due to the side effects of the imperfect possession. A forbidding aura emanated from his emaciated frame. Raphael’s shoulders trembled slightly.

‘He’s overwhelming…’

The actor who played the cult leader was a veteran theater actor who could lead a troupe. But he couldn’t show his presence in this fight. Raphael had to look like he was losing in the beginning. After a brief thought, Yoo Yeon Seo regained his composure and put on Raphael’s mask again.

“Did they lose their minds?”

Raphael’s eyes widened a bit.

[Why do I have to suffer like this! What did I do wrong!]

[It was fun… Please, spare me as I kneel and beg…!]

[Why? Why do I have to follow the law? There are so many fun things to do?]

The people he had cursed in Korea were insane, but they didn’t lose their sanity. Raphael’s pupils shook. He couldn’t afford to be weak in front of the devil, but he inadvertently showed a gap. And the cult leader exploited it skillfully.

Without a sound, the cult leader approached Raphael and placed his hand on Raphael’s bowed head. The camera captured this scene from a distance. It looked like he was receiving a baptism. A devil giving a priest a baptism, what a paradoxical sight.

“Who is the real demon here?”

Raphael lifted his head and looked at the cult leader, who used to be his father.

“Me?”

The cult leader smirked and brought his face close to Raphael’s.

“Or…”

You?

The cult leader said silently.

Raphael, or rather Yoo Yeon Seo, opened his eyes wide. He saw a white skirt and two legs behind the cult leader. His body stiffened involuntarily and cold sweat ran down his face.

‘Stop…’

He closed his eyes tightly and opened them again. The figure was still flickering behind the cult leader. Yoo Yeon Seo’s eyes became bloodshot.

“That’s weird.”

The script said ‘Raphael glared at the cult leader with clenched teeth’.

“Wait. Quiet.”

At the whisper of the assistant director, Choi, the director, put his index finger on his lips and stared at Yoo Yeon Seo on the monitor. If that was Yoo Yeon Seo’s interpretation of Raphael, he had to prioritize capturing it on camera without interfering.

‘This is my body.’

Yoo Yeon Seo faced the illusion head-on. A tear rolled down his cheek from his bloodshot eyes. It looked like he was grieving for his father, who couldn’t rest in peace, and glaring at the devil who had taken over his father’s body.

“No, I’m different from you.”

Yoo Yeon Seo’s desperate struggle to get out of the illusion matched well with Raphael’s acting to escape from the cult leader’s mind game.

“Get out of that body.”

You’re not someone you can mess with. Raphael took out a cross and confronted the cult leader.

***

“Cut, good job!”

“Thank you for your hard work!”

After spending almost a day on filming, they finally finished the last shoot of ‘Demon’. Yoo Yeon Seo casually greeted the staff and spat out blood secretly. The aftermath of the illusion was quite long. He wanted to go home and rest as soon as possible.

“What should we do first, bro?”

“Hospital, of course.”

“You heard, right?”

The atmosphere was getting ready to leave after taking the last group photo. Since they would see each other at the wrap-up party anyway, Yoo Yeon Seo quickly got on the van and sighed as he heard Lee Tae-gyeom and Im Seung-hyun’s conversation.

“Ha… I got it.”

It wouldn’t matter even if he got tested, nothing would come out… Yoo Yeon Seo decided to go along with them for now.
