Chapter 73 - Father (1/2)

Ever since Tom came back, I could feel the difference around me. I didn't know what was the reason for the change, but I could feel it clearly and it became stronger as day passed.

And, when I talked about change, I meant the presence of ghost.

Yeah, somehow my sensitivity towards them increased as I could sense them now. I could also see them sometime and I would be lying if I said I was not scared by their appearance. Most of them were in hideous state and some even emitting bad aura around them that made me feel fear.

The good news is they would not enter my room and the furthest they could do was haunting my balcony. Damn... that was my favorite spot.

Who said ghost would not appear in the broad daylight?

Wrong. It was just in the broad daylight, it tended to get brighter and their transparent body sometimes got even more transparent that people normally could not see. But, they were actually there all the time. A bit cloudy and I could see them clearly.

I used to dislike the brightness of the sun, but now I couldn't express how much I loved it and did not even care if I got sunburn because of staying under the sun for too long. Well, not that I would get one, I got a good sunblock cream to protect my skin. Haha...

At least, I didn't need to see them under the glaring light of the sun.

After Tom returned, I got back to my daily activity. Of course, I couldn't avoid meeting Sanji. As expected, he was asking me where I brought the ghost from before.

”She went away, of course.” I answered.

His sharp eyes as if wanted to pierce me. ”I didn't know you could pull out a ghost from someone's body that way. They thanked you, you know?” He said.

”Ah, I had no idea as well. I don't even know why I did that. Haha...” I let out a hollow laugh as I avoided his gaze.

”Well, it doesn't mean it can't be done. I knew someone who could do the same, only this person pulls it on top of the possessed one's body. It's like pulling out weed.” Sanji said casually.
