Rejuvenation.


    It’s humanity’s dream, but so far, no one has seeded scientifically. In reality, no one has ever truly experienced getting younger.


    But in this ghost story world, I am experiencing it firsthand... actual rejuvenation!


    …Though my height has been cut in half.@@novelbin@@


    “Achoo.”


    “Oh, oh, be careful. Kids get cold easily, you know.”


    I fell silent for a moment, watching Agent Choi, who looked thrilled as he wrapped me in a nket.


    It was so absurd that I couldn’t even react.


    ‘This feels unreal.’


    I’m eight years old.


    Being reduced to an elementary school lower-grader was an incredibly bizarre experience.


    Those old cartoons where the protagonist instantly adjusts after getting younger? All lies. A child’s senses were several times sharper, their stamina strangely overflowing.


    I thought my shortened reach would make me waddle awkwardly, but surprisingly, I didn’t.


    “It’s because of goblin tricks.”


    Bronze Agent exined it neatly.


    Of course, that was neat by long-time yers’ standards—for a neer, it was anything but.


    So, I reacted appropriately.


    “G-Goblin tricks?”


    “Think of it as a supernatural phenomenon that deceives reality. It’s not a disaster, and it can’t be used for evil purposes. Because, well… it’s just a ‘trick.’”


    Hmm. That was a good exnation.


    I nced at the goblin fire embedded in my arm and recalled what I knew from .


    Goblin Tricks


    A mysterious ability possessed by certain agents in the Supernatural Disaster Management Bureau.


    It asionally manifests when an agent is assigned a spiritually attuned goblin-rted artifact.


    The specific abilities that emerge depend onpatibility with the agent, butmon ones include:


    <ul>


    <li>Shapeshifting</li>


    <li>Hiding objects</li>


    <li>Showing illusions</li>


    <li>ying with fire in midair</li>


    </ul>


    “You’ve probably guessed by now, but the Disaster Management Bureau is deeply connected with goblins. So, you can assume that even Captain of Xuanwu Team 1 can use ‘goblin tricks.’”


    Oh. He was directly telling me that there was a deeper backstory he’d share once I was more experienced.


    Thanks… I guess.


    “Wait, Jaegwan, you said too much! What do we do, newbie? You might get your memory wiped!”


    “……”
