In the city of Naples, Italy:

"Investigative authorities are quickly reviewing the recent killings of women between the ages of 25 and 35 in Italy, according to a statement from the city. All case-related material will be provided on radio stations on a continual basis."

The signal appeared to be weakening, the sound of the broadcast station became unexpectedly blurry. No, it appears like someone is throwing a heavy item back at the radio, what a bizarre individual. A man is smoking and wearing a outdated T-shirt in a run-down house in the south of Italy. The home was filled with the stench of death, and the strong scent of smoke ascended throughout everything, causing a figure sitting in the corner of the house to cough up a few choking sounds.

"Shut up!" he yelled at the individual causing the cough to be muffled. The radio was broadcasting the news, delivering the newest details on the recent tragic case; the radio kept playing, making him uneasy; he had to u

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 9: ANCANTA'S DIARY

    I must admit that I am both furious and terrified since this boy is not only a demigod, but also an immortal. In essence, Aubrey is not eternal; rather, his time has been momentarily halted, or rather frozen. When Aubrey is the son of Hades, perhaps this is a privilege because he can halt his own age without being subject to the rules of birth and death for hundreds of years. However, the age freeze cannot be maintained indefinitely, and Aubrey will soon age as well, although surviving a few hundred years longer is already a privilege for him. At the thought of being immortal, I shivered involuntarily. Is it possible that I, too, am an eternal goblin? Not only that, but I have incredible powers, but when I have to exist for such a long period, everything around me gradually changes and I have to adjust, and I almost forget who I used to be. It was a heinous crime."When I left that space, everything outside changed," Aubrey explained. "I couldn't find my home in Rome, I didn'

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 10: THE BEGINING OF SECRETS

    Watson is preoccupied with files on his desk; it has been a long day, with five young girls inexplicably vanishing in a succession. Naples, as he had expected, was no longer as calm as it once had been. The weather in Naples has changed to fall, but it is still hot, so it is no surprise that people have been pouring to the streets to celebrate festivals recently, creating a chance for the murderers to strike."Mr. Watson!" yelled someone from behind him, causing Watson to jump and dump a slew of paperwork on the table. The person who called him was none other than Haster Phin, the police chief and a close friend of his father. Thanks to his father's grace, Watson has only been assigned to little assignments, missing persons cases in Naples, never allowing him to engage in any large cases, maybe because his father didn't want him to incur too much danger with this job, so he requested the sheriff. The sheriff strolled in, a bundle of paperwork concerning Pacular Whisker and th

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 11: DESTINY ENCOUNTERS

    My name is Hector Sparker, I am standing in a green meadow and listening to the wind trying to blow through my ears. I, a twenty-five-year-old young man, is enjoying an ordinary life to the point of mediocrity.“Hector..”, a distant call drew my attention, “Do you participate in the contest in the village?”That is Elena, Elena Ween, the girl I had been alone for so long. Elena is as beautiful as a lily, both fragrant and beautiful to ecstasy. My favorite is Elena's smile, that smile is like the power of the sun, it can erase all the darkness in my life. Today, Elena is especially beautiful in a long navy blue dress, which is my favorite color, and she is asking me to participate in the traditional Hill competition, the treasure hunt.“I have to join! I'll bring you the most precious treasure," I waved my hand, speaking loudly so Elena could hear.Elena when she heard my words, her cheeks flushed red from embarrassment. It's not that I don't know Elena's feelings for me, but I really

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 12: EXPRESS TRAIN TO BOLOGNA

    "I'm Hector, Hector Sparker..." I didn't hesitate to mention my whole name since I was curious about how things were going. "Could you please tell me how Sister Jane died?""She got a serious sickness and died, maybe because she was too elderly to live. Sister Jane had advised the sisters at the convent just before she died that if anybody called Hector Sparker came to them in the future and inquired about the death of a girl named Ancanta, they should give him this book. I believe you chose the correct book, and perhaps Sister Jane will be pleased as well."After that, the young nun immediately left, and I was still astonished when Aubrey's disruptive remarks jabbed me: "Obviously you know Sister Jane is dead, you know that person just now was just a spirit, however, also appeared surprised. It's true the goblin like to pretend. You can fool others, but you certainly can't fool me."“It's just that I'm touched, that Sister Jane died twenty years ago, her spirit could have left here a

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 13: REUNION

    All eyes were on the hated boy Aubrey. Actually, I was surprised too, because I didn't understand why he said such words, "young man"? Obviously, Aubrey looks younger than this cop, but he says it like that. He's always reminding me to be careful but he's careless, what a troublesome kid. I saw that Henry and Watson were both very surprised at Aubrey's change of mood, and I quickly laughed to dispel Watson's doubt. However, without giving me time to react, Aubrey quickly spoke in an innocent voice, just like the boy's age."My uncle keeps complaining about this, I'm just repeating what he said to me on the train, don't mind brother Watson. Oh Uncle Michael, didn't you come here to ask Uncle Henry about Pacular Whisker and Ancanta Sparker? Why are you so quiet, are you tired?"As soon as he heard that I was tired, Henry quickly opened the door and said, "Yes, I was careless and didn't notice that you two had come a long way. Come on, let's go inside first and then we'll talk later. The

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 14: I DON'T WANT TO DESTROY A HAPPY FAMILY

    “Is that boy asleep? What a child, he woke up and now he's asleep again." ,Watson entered and smiled, in his hand holding a tray of fragrant coffee cups. He looked at Aubrey with a curious look and continued, “If no one told me, I don't think this boy would be fifteen years old. He looks a lot more mature than he looks.”"When you're done, go out and help out with Mom, Dad and Mr. Lee here need to discuss some important matters. I'll talk to you later in the evening." Mr. Henry said with a very serious face, like a famous lawyer. “Oh yeah, how did you handle Pacular Whisker thing?”Watson's expression changed slightly, at first it looked like he was trying to calm down to talk to his father, but after the mention of the name Pacular Whisker, his expression gradually frowned. Taking a deep breath, Watson simply said, "I haven't investigated anything yet, there's something I need to talk to you about tonight."With that, Watson bowed to me and left the room. Watson's eyes met mine, and

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 15: DISCREDIT

    Watson flipped through the pages of Pacular Whisker files and started digging. The man went missing in Rome in 1455 and left a family of three dead. No, it's not three people, it's the dead two; The boy in that family has mysteriously disappeared and no one knows where the son of that family went. Watson flipped through the missing person files, which was not a difficult task for him. After more than three years working in Naples, he more or less learned how to look up the fastest.The image that appeared before his eyes was a blurry image; Perhaps the file has been around for nearly a hundred years, so the lines on the picture are no longer clearly visible. However, the name on the file is still quite clear. These are the family members of Pacular Whisker, Watson sees each name in turn: Drusilla Gray: wife of Pacular Whisker, formerly divorced and Pacular is her later husband. Aubrey Gray: Drusilla's stepchild with her previous husband. Ariana Whisker: Drusilla and Pacular's daugh

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 16: A DANGEROUS TRIP TO HELL

    I was gasping for breath, feeling like all my internal organs were pouring out. What the hell is that thing? I silently blamed myself. Standing in front of my body was Aubrey, he was holding a short sword in his hand, preparing to fight."Take us to the god Hades, Charon.." Aubrey said in a cold voice.I could clearly hear Aubrey calling that big horse Charon. Charon is no longer a stranger, at least to me, but to see Charon outside is the first time. It is said that if the soul dies, the soul will go to hell, then the first gate they have to go through is to meet Charon to register, then after being carefully checked by Charon, they can go down hell. Charon is a centaur or rather, the lower body is a horse, the upper body is a human. However, when I saw him face to face, I couldn't believe how big he was.“Kid, I have never heard of your name? Are you going to hell with a goblin?" , Charon spoke so loudly that it made my eardrums feel like they were about to burst.“I am Aubrey Gray,

    "I knew you'd come back, because that's your destiny, goblin, isn't it?"That spirit spoke to me with an overbearing attitude that made me extremely angry. I quickly grabbed the spirit's neck with my hand and made it cough.“Stop talking nonsense, Watson. If you have something to say, say it, or I'll have to come back!"“This place was once a chaotic battle, everything is now as calm as if there had never been a war.”I smiled and looked at the soul. That's right, more than two hundred years after that war, things are much more modern now. Humans also invented modern technologies such as phones or laptops to easily communicate with each other. Watson's soul and I are still the same, we are the remnants of that chaotic battle that year.“Will you take a walk with me?” Watson suggested.“I don't want to remember the sad things of the past. Maybe that pain was too great for me, the day I saw Aubrey leave…” Tears flowed involuntarily down my face, on the quiet street with only my shadow.

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 39: LARGE WAR

    On the ground, there was a real panic. The sky was pitch black, but there was no rain and no snow. In the sky appeared each cloud curled into thick chaos that looked extremely scary. Aubrey saw that scene, he unconsciously grabbed my hand. Perhaps it was as if Aubrey had foreseen the outcome, so he was a bit worried. The lingering cold air made all of us freeze. We had only been away for a few days when immediately things slowly turned chaotic. The wind was constantly blowing and the trees were hitting the windows so hard they broke.People rush to flee, everyone is fighting for train tickets, bus tickets to get out of this horrible place, but they don't know that this horror lasts everywhere, even if they run away. Death cannot be avoided anywhere. Perhaps Greedius was using his strength to absorb all the greed and selfishness in this world. He's getting stronger and stronger and I'm getting more and more scared. The fear reminds me of the day thousands of years ago when I turned int

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 38: HAPPINESS?

    “Are you really Aubrey?”Everyone must be wondering why I asked you that, right? Because after hearing Aubrey's call, I immediately ran towards the boy's call. I don't remember how long I ran myself, I felt like someone was urging me to run fast. I kept running and running on the desert beach without stopping and until I fell into a hole, in front of me was a white lily.That's right, I'm not dreaming, in front of my eyes is a white lily with a fragrant scent. The pale red interspersed flower looks a bit odd but I'm sure it's the lily because I've smelled it hundreds of times. I looked ahead and met my eyes was a boy. No, rather a young man between thirty and thirty-two years old. The boy looked at me and said welcome back to this world. It really took me a long time to realize where I was.“Are you really Aubrey?” I kept asking that silly question again and didn't seem to realize I'd asked it three times. I don't believe the guy standing in front of me, a handsome looking guy with cu

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 37: WHO LEAVES, WHO STAYS

    “Pacular…Is everything okay?” Enphinius cried out, causing Pacular to drop the glass he was holding. The hot coffee shot at Pacular's body causing him to involuntarily wince. “Oh Paul, are you all right? Why are you so careless?”Enphinius ran over and gently rubbed Pacular's burning hand, then gently bent down to pick up the shards of the glass Pacular had broken just now. A piece of glass cut into Enphinius' flesh, causing his blood to flow out. The Enphinius' blood that had just flowed out suddenly turned black and gave off a foul stench."Oh Paul, why is that?" Enphinius cried out in fear, "My blood..."Pacular looked towards Enphinius, he said nothing. Since Watson was controlled by Greedius, it seems that his master no longer cares about him. Obviously, Pacular's hand suddenly burned and turned into a very scary wrinkle. Pacular gradually feels the change in his person, he is both scared and worried, he does not know if he will become old and die like before.This isn't the firs

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 36: HEART SET RIGHT WAY

    I woke up in a big sandy beach, my mood seems to be worse today than yesterday. But I also don't know how long I've been here, maybe my time here is meaningless because I will forever be in this tasteless place. I was tired of looking at the wind and then at the sky, since the day I met Elena again, my heart has changed a lot. It was true that I didn't want Aubrey to interfere in my affairs, but a part of me wanted him to be able to fight with me.“Aubrey, what are you doing now? Will you remember me?” I asked myself as I asked Aubrey in the air, “I'm thinking of you. I feel this place without you, everything seems so boring but if I were here, would you miss me? In fact, I didn't want to go back to the real world at all because there was Greedius waiting for me like a wolf looking for prey. He was still waiting for me as if I were the best prey in all of his hunts. I saw myself and the people of Hill looking at me, hating me because I had become weak and begging the help of a demon.

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 35: ARROGATING BODY

    Watson looked at his burning house, he rushed forward in a panic when it was indeed his house on Mars Street that was on fire. The fire was three meters high, the flames were so large that a billowing black smoke could be seen. Watson let go of his hand in panic, dropping both the bottle of wine and the bouquet of flowers. The wine bottle fell to the ground and broke, causing the liquid in the wine bottle to flow near the mouth of the fire, catching fire more strongly, everything became more and more chaotic and scary than ever.“Dad…Mum…You two…Where are you?”Watson shouted loudly, as if his scream had echoed in the flickering flames. Watson ran him to his house, he hurried inside, ignoring the fire that was getting bigger and bigger. The inside of the house was even more chaotic than the outside, all the furniture was scorched and thrown all over the place. It seemed that a riot had just happened, so the space around him became so messy. Watson ran into the bedroom and then to the

  • WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HILL   Chapter 34: UNDEFINED LAND

    I felt myself drifting between an unknown place of space and time. In this place it's just me and a wasteland. I wandered alone in a vast sky as if the whole world was only me. I feel light, but my heart is heavy. It's strange!"Is any body here?"I cried out, hoping someone would hear me, but the only response was sounds coming from somewhere. I know that's my echo. I remember myself jumping into the River Styx and when I opened my eyes I realized I was here. I tried to find a way out of this place but all around me was sand and sand. There was no life in this place, not even a blade of weed or a cactus. I wandered around, but in my head I didn't think of anything. I feel so heavy inside, it makes me move and I can wander in this unknown space.“Aubrey…Ancanta…” I silently called out the names of the people I knew.Everything was still the same, just the way I came. A lonely silence. Actually, I thought to myself that I deserved this, I deserved to be punished like this. Memories flo

    "Are you awake?"Aubrey opened his eyes to find he was in a warm room. It seemed to be the room of the goddess Persephone, because he could hear the scent of flowers in the air. Aubrey was tired, he couldn't even open his eyes, he could only open them slightly. The scent of lily in the room made him feel comfortable, not too harsh but not too light."Where is this?" Aubrey groaned, maybe he was still in pain so his face was wrinkled, his legs numb as if there was a big mass on top of him. “Why am I here?”“This is my room, son. It's a heartless father to see his son like that, but this time I have to protect my husband, it was really hard for him this time." The goddess Persephone lifted Aubrey's head, then gently fed him from the hot spoon. "I've reheated the holy wine and some bread, eat some, Aubrey. You have become a lot weaker since we met that year.”“Uncle Hector…” Aubrey asked weakly, as if he didn't care about himself. “Did you find Uncle Hector, right?"Goddess Persephone si

    Enphinius sat at a roadside cafe along the Mars neighborhood, seemingly waiting for something. Smiling slightly, Enphinius held a newspaper in his hand, wrapped with something inside. All the people around did not notice the tattooed man full of body and full of dirt like Enphinius, perhaps avoiding such people has become a natural human reflex, so when he saw it, Enphinius, everyone unconsciously regarded him as invisible.Enphinius stood up when he saw someone walking slowly. He also quickly left the cafe, didn't forget to put a hundred dollar bill on the table and walked quickly towards that person."Oh my God!" Enphinius cried out, but the sound was very low, enough for the other person to hear. That person also panicked and ran over and caught Enphinius."Are you okay? Sorry, I've been busy lately so I didn't notice that someone was coming. I'm so sorry." The other also hurriedly apologized profusely, even though Enphinius did not notice his attitude."Miss Vivian Layer, isn't it
