She immediately breaked free from Wyatt hands. "Oh no!. You can not touch me. My hands are not clean. I just touched the curse doll a while ago. You are likely to curse, "Achara acted like something big and terrible is going to happen.

"Wait, what?" Wyatt asked in disbelief. "You are kidding me, right?"

"No, I am serious." Achara responded with a serious look on her face. "Let me look. Yep, there's curse blood on your hands now. You are likely to be cursed." She looked at Wyatt's hands and nodded her head.

The truth is that it was some blood that Wyatt got from holding her hands that got tainted with animal blood a few minutes ago. The blood got tainted when she set up the fake ghost ceremony. The unlucky Wyatt happened to hold her hands at the right moment.

Honestly, she just sprouted out nonsense to avoid Wyatt from inviting her to the imperial army. Who would know that she would see such an interesting reaction. She felt satisfied.

" So, what is going to happen to me?" Wyatt asked. A tiny bit of anxiety can be seen on his face. Although he was smart, the nonsense that Achara sprouted happened to be the one thing that Wyatt was afraid of the most. It's ghost.

"If this is not resolved in time, the ghost might be able to follow you. Don't worry it cannot harm you physically yet."

"Yet? " Wyatt repeated this word with his eyes widen and voice sounding alarming. Achara words were like a roller coaster. One time, her word sounded relieving, and then she would talk like it was dangerous, making people anxious with emotional up and down.

"Yep. As long as the ash container does not break. " Achara answered. "As I treasure it very carefully, it would never break. You don't need to worry about this. "

Achara looked at Wyatt, who was not convinced and comforted, "You don't need to worry because it can never harm your real body. At worst, it will follow you everywhere you go. "

" I am sure a tough warrior like you will not be bothered by such trivial thing, right?" She asked intentionally.

Wyatt does not answer feeling dread. " Will it not be able to harm me at all?" he asked in a shaking voice.

" It can only mess you in your dream like cutting your body part in pieces, sewing your mouth like that curse doll over there, breaking your bones. But I guarantee it can not harm you in real life. So you are super duper safe." She smiled and put a thumb up.

However, that super duper safe does not sound so safe at all to Wyatt, but he was a little relieved. But it was not long before goosebump spread over his body because of what Achara said later. " Although the ghost is not powerful enough . However, it can make you feel pain in your dream. It's okay. When you wake up , all the pain will be gone. The ghost will not be able to touch a string of your hair in real life. It is that harmless. "

Achara also added that " the best part is that it can not do anything to you whether it is night or day time. It is that powerless. All It can do is stare at you. "

"Oh, and please don't bother about it following you all the time and staring. It is true that at night, when you are alone, it can creepily stare at you in the dark. It is also true that it can slowly come out of the dark and suddenly pop up its ugly face in the most unexpected situation. But that's where it ends. Although it can stare at you all day long and even stare at you when you are taking a shit. It's okay. It is just a spirit. They can not tell this to everyone. So, your secret is really super duper safe, too. You even get a new companion. " Achara scared him, acting like she was trying to comfort him.

Rui questioned her. " Then what about you.? You touched the blood too.?"

"That smart bastard." Achara thought.

" No one was supposed to touch the blood. It was okay for me since I will then do the purification ritual. This will strengthen the seal. " Achara explained

Wyatt gained back his composure. "I don't think ghosts are real," he lied and acted tough.

"Something that you never see doesn't mean it does not exist," Achara argued back.

Sean smiled, " I am so glad that I am not the one who got cursed."

Wyatt, who heard this stared dagger at the Sean.

"Ahem, although, I don't believe in ghosts. It is better to be safe, so what do I have to do to get rid of this?" Wyatt asked. ........ Updated on 17th November 2024 ( Sunday)
