Synopsis
Seol Yeong, a member of the elite Hwarang, is branded a harbinger of disaster due to his proficiency in necromancy. To clear his name and escape these false accusations, he is tasked with investigating and resolving supernatural anomalies. His journey takes a complicated turn with the sudden reappearance of Ja Ha, the legendary former leader who vanished years ago. This novel reads like a supernatural procedural set within a historical fantasy framework, echoing tropes found in occult detective stories. It is best suited for readers who appreciate atmospheric world-building and slow-burn mysteries. Those seeking a rapid-fire power fantasy should likely skip it. The narrative pacing is deliberate, prioritizing the investigation of abnormal incidents over immediate action. The standout quality is the intriguing conflict between the protagonist's noble standing and his stigmatized magical abilities.

Editorial Review
This title demonstrates a strong grasp of atmospheric tension, utilizing the Supernatural and Mystery genres to create a compelling hook. The central conflict—a protagonist fighting for social redemption while wielding a feared power—provides a solid emotional core. However, the current chapter count suggests a slow build-up that may test the patience of some. While the episodic nature of the abnormal incidents allows for creative world-building, there is a risk of the overarching plot regarding Ja Ha becoming secondary to the individual mysteries. The prose is functional, though the pacing occasionally lags during the investigative phases. Overall, it is a promising historical fantasy that rewards patient readers, though it lacks the urgent momentum found in more action-oriented webnovels.
