Chapter 38 (2/2)
“But history will still have our place”
The old president played with his pen in his hand as he spoke
“Young people have their own glory, and we also have our own pride And now is not the tiht, since you believe in him so much, then I won’t interfere anymore But, if there’s still no movement in three days, then you must be ready to take people to collect their corpses”

In the gloo wooden planks creaked under heavy pressure
Although right now, the current state of the house was in total chaos, but once upon a tieous estate with dark red velvet carpets, intricate sculptures, and brilliant crystalline chandeliers
However, as the saying goes: ti In this case, time slowly destroyed the splendor of the house
The cold wind sifted through the fractures in the glass s and ruffled the curtains A huge chandelier sprawled on the floor, with its crystals strewn all over the roos were covered in blemishes and cobwebs
While the scene looked aesthetically unpleasing, it certainly checked all the boxes of a haunted house theme

Crash
Rhode sether to rid the residue dust on his sleeve after he threw a rotted wooden table at his feet, to the side
Like a frightened rabbit, Lize jumped once she heard the noise and turned around to stare at Rhode with a pale face
“W-What are you doing, Mr Rhode?”
“Cleaning up”
He naled the Spirit Bird to conjure a strong wind to sweep the dust that had been accuhout the years
Rhode then faced towards Lize with his usual indifferent expression and said, “After all, no one had lived in this ghostly place for a few years It’s tihold, we don’t require a decor like those noble houses; it’s so much trouble, just a simple decor would do Ah, but this carpet quality is not bad, we can keep it, what do you think?”
“Si, sir!”
Lize alht a new house and came to decorate the layout
The pressure on Lize wasn’t little After all, she heard nasty rumors about this haunted house This house had clai woer perception was constantly on high alert Even a slight rustle of the curtain could startle her This couldn’t be bla death ainst an enemy that couldn’t be seen
Rhode obviously noticed her alar He recalled that the first ti every corner of the house since he was afraid that a monster would suddenly appear out of nowhere But at that tier would come at the most unexpected moment But now, he was familiar with the quest process and was quite disappointed that he’d once felt terribly afraid of it After all, it was his first tih he said he was ‘cleaning’, but it was nothing h he had already received the deed of the land fronize the stronghold This meant that they had not completed the requirements, which was to clear this haunted house That hy he brought Lize here to help him as she was the best candidate with her holy skills And since his only subordinate was Lize, he had to somehow find a way to train her to keep up with his speed However, Lize wasn’t a player, and thus, he couldn’t blatantly say things like: ‘C’ether and level up’ One ame leveled up differently from the player As such, Rhode had no choice but to trick this poor girl to come here with him
The sun finally went down
Darkness crept in and shrouded the skies Now, the already-dark house was even darker Only the fireplace in the center of the hall eht
“Mr Rhode, I think we should go back We can still clean up toly uncomfortable the darker the house beca, but rather it was an instinctive sense of danger
“No need Let us just take a break here, since this is our stronghold”
He was very clear about her uncoht now When he entered this area he received a systes belonging to the light, evil and darkness was their biggest foe The eternal opposition between good and evil clearly drawn the line between the two sides This means that if one entered the domain of the opposition, an absolute pressure would bear down upon theht now, since Lize was in the evil dos and would feel uneasy After all, she was a half angel, half human, so at least she was still able to maintain this state
It’s aler froht red card quietly
Clang…!
