Chapter 42: A strange voice (2/2)

A maid then opened the door.

”Is anything wrong sir?”

”Did you say something?”

”No sir, no one has been outside this room but me.”

”Sorry to bother you, let me know if you see anything.”

”Only you can hear me…” The voice whispered.

Lucas tried looking around his room to see if he could spot anyone but after searching around every corner of the room, there was nothing.

”I'm not here.. Come find me.” Lucas could nowhere the voice as if it was directly speaking in his mind.

”What do you want?”

”Find me. Help me and I will help you.”

Lucas curiosity got the better of him but he wasn't stupid. He went to his cupboard and grabbed a katana blade that his father gifted him for his twelve birthday. Lucas often trained with the sword as his father encouraged him to learn how to use the weapon in real life, to help him with the game.

If someone had broken into the house, the thief was the one that needed to worry not Lucas.

Lucas left his room and started to follow the direction of the voice. As he left the maid saw him holding the blade in his hand.

”Sir, if there is anything you need, I'm happy to get it for you.”

”Don't worry I'm going to train for the night before I go to sleep. Why don't you take a rest?” Lucas said as he smiled.

Lucas had always treated the maids and servants as his own family members. They had looked after him since he was young, more so than his own parents who were never at home. The servants also treated Lucas as a family.

Lucas walked around the mansion while the voice-guided him. If Lucas went in the wrong direction, it would say so. The mansion was like a maze. There were rooms inside of rooms and even places Lucas had never been to before.

Finally, after thirty minutes of walking around, he had eventually reached a huge double door. The double door was located in his father's training room in the basement. The training room was a huge empty space with many weapons mounted on the wall. They were also sword markings and even marks of blood all over.

Lucas could tell just from looking, how hard his father trained. As Lucas approached the double door the voice said.

”I'm in here, please help me.”

Lucas tried opening the door but it was locked. Clearly, this meant it wasn't some type of criminal who had broken into the house. Lucas then started to wonder what was truly behind the door.

Although Lucas didn't have a key. The lock wasn't strong enough to keep him from cutting it open with his blade.

Lucas hesitated for a moment. Then eventually decided to go in.
