Chapter 160: Visited By A White Lady (2/2)
”Damn you, Lawrend!”
Logan gained the ability to speak once again, and he cursed Lawrend.
Lawrend crouched in front of him and said, ”We're both in this special mission. If you fail, you won't impress the girl you like.”
Logan was taken aback when he heard it. He stared at Lawrend with wide eyes.
”What makes you think that you can do it better?” Logan asked him with gritted teeth.
”Results have already proven it,” he replied and shrugged his shoulders.
”You—!”
Logan was incensed hearing his reply. It was true, but he wasn't willing to admit it. His pride simply doesn't allow such a thing.
Lawrend turned to Nuon, ”I'll go now. It would take forever to knock some sense into this guy's head,” he said.
”I'll try.”
Nuon nodded his head.
”Goodluck,” Lawrend said to him before he left.
Lawrend entered one of the makeshift shelters that Nuon made. He inspected it, and he was impressed with what Nuon was able to make. It was sturdy and built well.
He closed his eyes and slept.
The night passed by peacefully. Lawrend opened his eyes the next morning.
”Huh.”
Lawrend looked at his bright surroundings in confusion.
'Surprisingly, he didn't make a scene,' Lawrend thought to himself.
He expected him to struggle away from Nuon and attack him in the middle of his sleep.
Lawrend left his shelter and headed outside.
There was a cold fog surrounding the area. He could see for at most, 10 meters(33 feet).
”A fog? What's going on?” Lawrend asked himself.
”One who was graced by the Heaven Empress, I offer you my allegiance.”
A sweet and calming voice whispered to Lawrend.
”Who!?”
Lawrend looked around him warily. These days, people kept whispering into his ear that he was starting to have PTSD about it.
”It's me…”
A beautiful young woman dressed in white floated over in front of Lawrend. She had chestnut-colored hair and a pale and almost transparent skin. That's right, she's a ghost.
”Daisy?” he called out to her in confusion. She looked exactly like Daisy that he had seen in that dream.
”What?” Daisy replied to Lawrend.
”I-Is that the Heavenly Empress!?” The ghost exclaimed in excitement when she heard Daisy's voice.
”Who are you? Why do you look like me?” Daisy asked her in a questioning voice.
”I don't know, but I serve the Heavenly Empress with all of my heart,” The ghost replied to her. She raised her hand and placed it over her chest.
”Don't tell me, she's one of your soul shards?” Lawrend couldn't help but ask Daisy with twitching cheeks.
”No way!” Daisy replied in denial. ”If she's one of my soul shards, I would have felt it,” she added.
”Huh? So she isn't?”
Lawrend stared at the ghost in front of him in confusion. No matter how he tried looking at her, she looked exactly like the appearance of Daisy that he saw before.
