Capítulo 291: Purify

*In the Present*

Siwan was staring at the spot where Yisub stood. He was quiet after hearing the ghost's story, contemplating many things. In many ways, Yisub was like him; a protective brother who only wanted a peaceful life for himself and his sibling. Even though he could not see the boy, he faintly felt his desperate pleas.

"Is this why you're making me purify his soul?" Siwan asked Junho. "Because I can relate to him more?"

"Yes," Junho replied. "That is the precise reason why I'm letting you do this. You…You understand spirits in a way I never can."

Siwan was not sure how to respond to that. Junho had given it a lot of thought and decided that it was time for Siwan to start learning how to purify spirits. 

Even though Junho was experienced, he could feel that Siwan possessed something which he did not: empathy. Junho may have purified many souls but other than a selected few, he did not feel particularly sympathetic towards them.
