Nodding in response, Harold then hung up before stepping on the gas as they sped to the crime scene. As Gerald had earlier told Rey, instead of being the perpetrator, Lord Van Tage was simply another victim. From what he could currently deduce, Lord Van Tage must have encountered something terrible with Fay which led to both of them being targeted and eventually killed… While Gerald had successfully predicted that Lord Van Tage would end up dying next, he was unfortunately a bit too late to prevent his death… Regardless, the trio soon arrived at Lord Van Tage’s home… The Elysian Labyrinth. Since it was well known that this was Lord Van Tage’s home and he already had a cult following, it was no surprise that several people were already there, looking immensely shocked. After all, hovering right under one of the house’s beams, was Lord Van Tage’s lifeless body! For a bit of backstory, after graduating from university, Lord Van Tage had dedicated his life to researching the fie

Chapter 1872

“From what I’ve managed to gather up till this point, the killer was never a human, but instead, a grudgeful ghost!” “…Come again? A grudgeful ghost? Are you absolutely sure, Mr. Crawford? This isn’t exactly a minor case,” replied Harold in a slightly doubtful tone. Truth be told, Harold didn’t really believe in ghosts. However, with so many supernatural occurrences happening before his very eyes, what other choice did he have but to believe? “Since you’ve hired me to solve the case, you’ll just have to trust me, Mr. Lee. Regardless, I promise you that I, Gerald Crawford, never lie about things like this! If you still refuse to believe me, however, then let’s not continue wasting each other’s time,” replied Gerald as he immediately turned around to leave. If his judgment wasn’t going to be trusted, then he may as well just leave. Quickly stopping Gerald from leaving, Harold then sighed before saying, “You misunderstand me, Mr. Crawford! I’m not doubting your capabilities at a

Chapter 1873

“…What… exactly are you doing, brother Gerald…?” asked the confused Rey. “I’m transferring some power into you so that you’ll be able to see ghosts like me from now on. However, be warned that these evil spirits can be much scarier and more vicious than you could ever imagine. With that in mind, I advise you to steel your will!” explained Gerald. Since this was going to be Rey’s first time seeing a real evil spirit, Gerald knew that the experience could be quite unnerving. With that, he made sure to tell Rey to prepare himself in hopes that his disciple wouldn’t end up just wetting his pants and fainting on the spot… “Got it, brother Gerald! I’ll be sure to keep myself in check!” replied Rey, determination in his eyes. Nodding in response, Gerald then led the way into the Elysian Labyrinth… Once inside, Gerald quickly summoned the Astrabyss Sword before saying, “Spirit Summoning Spell!” Following that, he began changing an incantation of sorts to summon any nearby ghosts.

Chapter 1874

Realizing that Rey was looking at the evil spirit, Gerald then replied, “I’ll be exterminating it so that it can’t cause any further harm!” Following that, Gerald took the Phangrottom Talisman out… and upon waving it before the evil spirit, it instantly let out a mighty roar! However, the longer it roared, the feebler it sounded, until eventually, it was reduced into nothing but ash… And just like that, Gerald had defeated the evil spirit! Thanks to the Phangrottom Talisman, dealing with spirits was no longer a major issue for Gerald. Rey himself could only stare dumbfounded by how easily Gerald had exorcised the evil spirit. To think that the Phangrottom Talisman was that powerful! “The talisman is truly incredible, brother Gerald!” exclaimed Rey. “Indeed. Why else do you think the Phangrottom Clan see it as a worthy treasure?” replied Gerald. If even the Phangrottom Clan treasured it, it was undoubtedly a powerful item… It certainly explained why people even risked thei

Now that the case was done and they were still awake anyway, Gerald and Rey returned home to get Juno and Yrsa out to have supper. Heading toward a local night market, the four found a nice stall and took their seats there. Upon sitting down, Rey couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow! To think that there’d be such a place in the city!” Rey, for one, had never come to places like this before, so he pretty much had no idea that locations like these existed in the first place. “…What? Didn’t you study here? How could you have spent all your years in this university without finding out about this place? Your university life was a complete waste!” joked Gerald before snickering. Chuckling sheepishly, Rey then scratched the back of his head in slight embarrassment before replying, “Still, that just shows that I work more and play less!” Though Rey unconsciously praised himself, the trio simply rolled their eyes in response. None of them could win against Rey when it came to narcissism!

Now that there were no further distractions and they were mostly done with their meals anyway, it was high time to discuss things more seriously. “Well, I’m thinking of starting a new office in a new place. If things work out, we’ll have our own established company that deals with psychic matters. That way, people will know where to find us if they have issues regarding such things,” replied Gerald. After solving today’s mystery, Gerald had thought about how the Great Council only dealt with matters between humans up till this point. If he established a company that specialized in dealing with the paranormal, those seeking help would be able to get actual results instead of having clueless investigators. What more, with the gates to the ghost world now open, more incidents like this would surely happen, which further prompted Gerald to give serious thought about the idea. Either way, after listening to Gerald’s suggestion, the trio immediately nodded without the slightest hesit

Chapter 1877

Shortly after, a scar-faced man walked up to the woman before scoffing, “Planning on going somewhere, boss?” “…Big Brother, we just run a small business…! We really don’t have any money to give you…!” replied the stall owner in a resigned tone. “Cut the cr*p!” sneered the scarred man before slapping her right in the cheek! Due to how hard he had hit her, the woman ended up staggering two steps back before having to lean against her cart to support herself… “Mother!” yelled the woman’s daughter as she immediately ran over to her to help her up. Following that, she glared at the scarred man before shouting, “You utter b*stard…! To think that you’d dare to hit a woman!” “Hmm? This your daughter, boss? She’s quite a looker!” sneered the scarred man, a malicious smile on his face as he walked over to the stall owner’s daughter before yanking her over to his side! “L-let go of me, you b*stard…! What are you planning to do?!” shouted the poor girl as she attempted to break herse

“You tired of living or something, kid? Are you seriously meddling in my affairs? Do you even know who I am?!” growled the scarred man as he continued glaring fiercely at Rey. “Don’t know, don’t care! Regardless, let them go already or I’ll call the Great Council over!” retorted Rey before fishing his phone out in hopes of threatening the gangster. Upon hearing that, the scarred man and his underlings instantly began laughing mockingly. Once he was done laughing, the scarred man then jeered, “Do you honestly think they’ll come over when they know we’re involved! Go ahead and call them then! See what happens!” Hearing that, Rey was slightly taken aback. To think that these hooligans weren’t afraid of the Great Council’s power! Shaking his head, the scarred man then signaled for his men to go after Rey, prompting Rey to instinctually take a step back… However, before he could take another, he suddenly felt a firm pat on his shoulder. Turning around and seeing that it was Ge

“Speaking of which, we’re not full yet, boss! With that said, why don’t you resume business?” said Gerald. “Oh! Just give me a minute and I’ll make more for all of you to eat then!” replied the stall owner almost instantaneously, a wide smile on her face. Since they had just saved her, it was only natural that she felt the need to repay their kindness with hospitality. With that, she quickly began setting up her stall again before getting to work… and not long after, a massive plate of food was served at Gerald’s table. “I’m truly grateful for your help today, so all this is on me!” declared the stall owner. Before Gerald or the girls could even reply, Rey was already saying, “You’re being way too polite, boss! It was only a small matter to us!” Upon hearing that, the trio could help but stare at Rey with raised brows, thinking how shameless he was. “Well, small or not, it was still a great help to us! Now eat up and do tell me if you need more!” replied the stall owner bef

Chapter 1880

Tonight, some people were simply fated to mysteriously disappear off the face of the planet… Soon enough, Gerald found himself hovering over the Hoklux Gang’s headquarters… As previously seen, the Hoklux Gang was a bunch of hooligans, and the head of the group was a vicious man known simply as Roger. From the rumors Gerald had managed to gather, he was frequently summoned to the Great Council for ‘coffee talks’. Upon phasing through the headquarters’ ceiling, Gerald was immediately greeted by the sight of the scarred man kneeling before a seated person—whom Gerald assumed to be Roger—while saying, “I apologize, master…! We truly are useless for being defeated by others…!” “That you all are! Rubbish! To think that all of you weren’t a match for a single man! You’ve truly embarrassed the Hoklux Gang this time!” retorted Roger as he glared at the scarred man. Hearing that, the scarred man and his subordinates simply lowered their heads, not having the guts to even look up. “Y-
