Chapter 433 Ghost
“Ehh… Angus!! My baby boy, where are you going?!!” yelled Aunt Hersha as she tried to follow them but found that the hidden floor was already closed.
The two aunts try to open the hidden floor again but don’t know which button to trigger it. They couldn’t open it with force as a powerful complex rune protected the trapdoor. Unless they want to destroy the Royal Palace, they will never be able to open it.
“Tch.. This is all your fault!!” blamed Aunt Extalia.
“My fault!! No, this is yours. You are the one that hinders me from my baby boy.” rebuked Aunt Hersha.
Then, the two women keep bickering with each other. They even pull each other’s hair, fighting like a teenage girl. Still, the two women are powerful and start to break things during their petty fight.
At the same time, King Leon kept his work, ignoring the disturbance on the other side of the royal palace.
“My liege, shouldn’t we try to stop them?” asked old butler Darius beside King Leon.
Both of them already felt the disturbance from the two women a long ago. However, King Leon seems utterly oblivious about it.
“Darius… If you want to find eternal peace, please don’t bring me.” said King Leon shortly before returning to his work and pretending not to hear any scream from the other side of the Royal Palace.
Hearing this, old butler Darius could only release a long sigh. He knows that even if his king gives up stopping them, then no one could stop those two women from fighting each other. On one side, there is a Heart Kingdom hero, Crimson Flash.
While the opposite side is Hersha Widespread. No one knows much about this woman beside her job as the head of the Widespread family branch in this region.
However, no one expects this businesswoman to be not only a full-fledged sixth-grade combatant but also a powerful combatant. There was one time she managed to beat up almost all the Hascua Kingdom’s leaders alone for cheating her.
The Hascua Kingdom may not have had a seventh-grade king like the other three big kingdoms in this area. However, their sixth-grade combatants are numerous. Combined with their strong economic power, they are a powerful nation with many hidden cards.
Yet, they almost face a huge crisis because they anger Hersha Widespread. Just by herself, she manages to beat almost every Hascua leader to the point of dying and extorting them for large amounts of compensation.
Although everyone knows the Widespread Family is a powerful international merchant family. No one expects such an expert inside their family. On top of that, she also stays in this area.
Based on her strength, she could become the executive or even head of the branch in one of those superior race kingdoms such as the demon, giant, or even elves.
In the meantime, Angus and his group keep falling into a bottomless hole. Based on the time they fall, He knows they must have been falling for a long time.
‘Hmm… We should have already passed a few kilometers mark. There is no way there are a few kilometers underground without being noticed.’
‘Moreover, we are still in the area of the anti-fly spell from the royal palace. It means this must be some kind of space manipulation rune or something.’ analyzed Angus.
While he is analyzing their current condition, Jayna tries to keep Anna, who is playing around in the air.
“Big sis… I am flying!! Wooo…” said Anna
Anna lay in the air and slowed her falling speed. Then, she changed her body posture and dived to accelerate. She keeps playing around excitedly without caring about their situation.
After falling for another few more minutes, “Angus!!” called Jayna.
Angus immediately grabs the two girls and kicks the nearby wall to jump into the big hole in front of them. The bottomless pit is actually a double trap with only one exit. First, people will fall into deep dark spaces and feel calm from falling after a while.
However, the space rune effect only works for a limited time before it stops and brings them into a real trap hole filled with toxic spikes. Combined with the darkness and the speed at which they fall, most people will fall into this deadly spike.
Even Jayna falls into this trap for the first time she is here. Unfortunately, she is well-trained to handle any situation and manages to destroy the deadly spike before hurting her.
However, she also needs to repair the spike trap later on. She needs to prevent any stupid intruder from trying to use the hidden path.
This is also why she prevents Anna from going alone inside this hidden path. With Anna’s personality, she will destroy all the repaired spikes even if she didn’t mean it. In the worst case, she even starts destroying everything.
After entering the hole in the wall, they arrive at a huge slippery slide and keep going up and down.
“Yahoo!! Hahahaha…” laughed Anna excitedly while enjoying the ride.
They keep sliding for a while before finally seeing a bright light at the end of the slide. Then, they come out inside an abandoned building from the wall. As soon as they ejected from the slide, the hole closed and turned back into an ordinary wall.
Angus notices the abandoned building they currently reside in is quite familiar. Just as he scans the nearby area, Jayna immediately drags Angus and Anna in a hurry trying to get out of the building.
‘This place… no way?!!’ thought Angus.
“Ehh… Isn’t this one of the abandoned buildings inside the Royal Academy. I never thought there was a hidden path connected to the Royal Academy and this building.” said Angus.
“Yeah.. Yeah.. we should talk about it later. Now, let’s get out of this place first.” said Jayna in a hurry.
“Big sis… There is someone here.” said Anna.
“Ehh.. There are people here?! But, I don’t sense anyone. Angus, did you sense anyone?!” asked Jayna back.
Angus shook his head as he didn’t feel anyone, ‘Wait… Someone?! not bubbles?’ thought Angus.
“Yup… She is behind, big sis.” said Anna casually.
As soon as Jayna turns back, she sees a white transparent thing with long hair.
“Get out~ Get out~” said the ghost.
“KYAAA!! It’s here!! The Ghost!!” screamed Jayna as she hugged Angus while closing her eyes.
Then, Jayna throws things from her storage device at the ghost in panic without looking.
“Jayna, calm down. It couldn’t hurt us.” said Angus trying to calm Jayna.
However, Jayna didn’t listen and kept throwing things. In the meantime, Anna approaches the ghost casually.
“Hi, Mr. ghost. Anna is Anna. Did you poop?” asked Anna seriously.
“Get out~ Get out~” the ghost ignored Anna and repeated its sentence.
Seeing Jayna in panic, Angus couldn’t help but create a blue flame on his hand. Ever since he had his regeneration, he never used this blue flame again to heal his internal wound. However, Angus never thought he would use it again to deal with this spirit.
Looking at Angus’ blue flame, the ghost seems to remember something before becoming invisible, trying to run away. Just as it tries to run away, Anna grabs it using her bare hand.
“Where are you going?! You still have not answered Anna’s question. Did you poop?” asked Anna.
The ghost is struggling to try to get away from Anna while keeping being invisible. But, she finds Anna able to touch her body like Angus when he uses his blue flame. Angus himself couldn’t help but be speechless at Anna since he even needed his unique blue flame to touch the ghost.
Yet, she somehow catches it barehanded. Still, Angus ignores this and tries to calm the panicked Jayna.
“Anna, bring that ghost to another place.” said Angus.
“Ehh.. Alright.” said Anna as she walked away while holding the invisible ghost.
“Jayna, calm down. The ghost is gone.” said Angus trying to comfort Jayna.
“Noo… You are lying. It’s a ghost!! It can’t be killed. It is still there.” said Jayna while trying to throw something again.
Leaving with no choice, Angus grabs Jayna and kisses her deeply. The familiar taste in her mouth calmed Jayna, but she still didn’t dare to open her eyes. After rubbing Jayna’s head for a while, Angus breaks the kiss.
“It’s okay. I am here. The ghost is already gone. Now, open your eyes.” said Angus.
Jayna opens her blue eyes slowly and looks at Angus’ black eyes. Seeing her boyfriend’s eyes and face, Jayana couldn’t help but feel warm and safe. Now, she completely forgets about the ghost and only thinks about Angus.
“Are you going to mate?” asked Anna from the side who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
“Not here, Anna.” replied Angus to the little troublemaker who could never read the atmosphere.
Then, Angus and Jayna begin to collect the things she had thrown. Despite Jayna’s insistence to leave the building as soon as possible, they still couldn’t leave her things here.
While collecting things, “Anna, what did you do to the ghost?” asked Angus.
“Ohh.. Mr. Ghost is a meanie. She keeps ignoring Anna’s questions. So, Anna let Onyx eat it.” replied Anna casually while petting Onyx on her hand.
