I followed the team leader and his people who escaped from the hole in the wall. The reinforcement from the team leader's side faced the reinforcement that Mathew sent. This was the plan B that the team leader was talking about earlier.I did not stay to watch the battle. It was too bloody for me.Although I become more acquainted to gore and scary things since I have become a ghost, it still makes me uncomfortable seeing living people dying before my eyes.I am used to seeing dead people who died long ago, not the people who died in front of me due to my interruption. I steeled my heart. This battlefield might have been caused by my meddling but it's unavoidable. No one was innocent here. I tore my eyes away from the confused ghost who saw their bodies drop dead on the ground. Nor do I approach them. All I should be concerned about now was the things the team leader was carrying.With that thought, I buried the guilt I was feeling ever since I saw Jack's soul wandering around the
****The majestic mansion that Mathew was proud of was full of dead bodies.After his father finally released him, he ran here first thing in the morning without even having breakfast. He could not even sleep well last night.When he saw the dead bodies at the gate and the bullets scattered, Mathew turned silent.When he saw the hole in the wall, his face darkened.He went inside the gate and he passed by a pool of blood, abandoned weapons, and dead bodies. But he doesn't care about any of it. His feet were only directed at one place.Ever since he arrived, the people behind him did not dare to make a sound. The longer their boss walked, the atmosphere in the air become more suffocating.Inside the mansion, the steel doors at the entrance were destroyed. Mathew glanced at it and kept walking towards the stairs, then to his room.When he saw the messy room and the opened entrance towards the basement, his face turned darker.He went to the basement and saw the activated traps. He disab
A/n: This chapter is fixed. Thank you for waiting. ***** Michael did really arrive by the next morning. I wanted to gossip about what happened at the banquet, but the man did not open up the topic. Michael ordered his men to immediately investigate the evidence while he checked the contents himself. I stared at Michael who watched the camera footage of the day the car crashed. He examined the pictures, phone recordings, and the other evidence in the USB silently. All of them have Victoria's involvement. I watched as Michael's expression collapsed little by little as shock, anger, resentment, and guilt intertwined. He staggered weakly while his red eyes did not look away from the screen. I suddenly remembered one of that bastard's passages in his disgusting diary. [...I should definitely be around when he learned of his adored mistress's wickedness. I wonder what expression he would make once he learned he was actually dancing foolishly around her palm? It would surely be hilari
He came here to visit? Who would believe him?Michael clenched his fist. "With a murderous entourage behind you?""Ah... these people behind my back? You see, my place was ransacked and some important things were taken. So I doubled my bodyguards and brought them here with me. There's no problem, right? But brother isn't robbed, so why are your people injured and your guards standing behind you?"Mathew eyes's were cold as he looked behind Michael's people. Michael looked at him with red eyes. "There is a bastard who robbed me of the life of my precious wife and my son's future."Mathew suddenly laughed. "Robbed? Didn't you read my diary? You weren't robbed. You abandoned them."Michael suddenly rushed forward and punched Mathew in the face. When the guard was about to push Micahel away, the guard behind Michael prevented that guard, letting Michael successfully land a hit on Mathew's face.It was a hard punch that I even heard bones cracking.I looked at Michael in shock. Then gave
The police were supposed to be arresting Mathew only. But since the situation seemed like there was a fight between two parties, disturbing the public's peace and damaging property, he arrested them all.Fortunately, the two parties did not struggle or try to run away.Michael would not run away since he was the one who arranged this in the first place. As for Mathew, he was lying on the bed and passed out.With Mathew out, the investigation was smoother. They turned Mathew's mansion up and down.The row of drawers was ultimately found. With the cooperation of Michael and the police, they opened the drawers and found the contents. As they expected, it was the dirty secrets of the people that Michael had dealings with.While the police took these collected files that branched out to several cases, Michael requested a separate case submitting the evidence in the USB and diary. He wanted to achieve justice for his son and wife. This case was prioritized and immediately, all the people i
The doctors and nurses came in and rushed forward. Their actions were practiced and smooth. However, the expressions on their faces were not good. The private nurse at the side was pale as she tried to dial a number on her phone with trembling hands.While there was chaos in the room, the three of us stared at each other, unmoving.Lucas glanced at me and smiled too. "Hey."I subconsciously replied while dazed. "...Hey."Ms. Lilian was still shocked. She must have never imagined that she would see her son like this again.Lucas slowly stood up."Are you leaving already, Mom?" He let out a sad smile. "Would you give your son a hug?"Ms. Lilian finally recovered from her shock. She immediately hugged her son while sobbing in her hoarse voice. "My son....my baby...Lucas...."Lucas closed his eyes. "I miss you too mom. I miss you so much...."It was a rare and moving scene.If only it was not a demon with the last bit of her consciousness hugging a half-demonized soul.At that moment, I l
Standing in front of the forest, I looked at back Lucas."Ms. Lilian and I would go up."Lucas shook his head. "I want to see my mother off."After Ms. Lilian and Lucas said those words to me in the hospital, we ventured toward the mountain where Sir Benjamin's house was right away.Ms. Lilian might be smiling, but I could feel the demon's breath getting stronger and colder with each second. Any moment now, her consciousness would collapse and the demon she was suppressing inside would erupt.Ms. Lilian also knows it herself that's why she asked me to leave right away.We have arrived at the foot of the mountain. Ms. Lilian and I have the same thoughts to go together up to the mountain without Lucas. Lucas was not a normal soul who died recently, but he was a person who had a seed of a demon. Ms. Lilian asked him about his red pupil and Lucas gave him a summary of his story. Learning that her son actually lives as a lost soul among the dead, Ms. Lilian was heartbroken. Alas, all of
...The suppressed aura that Ms. Lilian was trying to hold finally found an outlet.It erupted.Such a massive and frosty aura expanded all throughout the field of the mansion. Fortunately, there was a barrier in Sir Benjamin's gate, or else this demonic aura would envelop the whole mountain. I felt the oppressive aura of the demon. Just this cold aura was enough to attack my soul. My soul body froze and my feet were rooted on the ground.If the demon stood in front of me, while I couldn't move or run away, I might have been eaten on the spot. This was frightening.This aura...I have never experienced such a great aura of a demon before. It was as if I was facing a huge demon bigger than a mountain. My instinct told me that with one wave of its hand, it would send my soul to explode.Such overwhelming power....A name suddenly came to my mind.A Greater Demon.Lucas beside me was also affected greatly. His eyes changed. The redness on his pupil glowed in both of his eyes and the shad
