Chapter 174 Hallucination? (1/2)
”What do you think about the event that Alex stops playing with Emily?” The moment Evangeline asked this, she expected the ghost to hesitate before answering. Yet the supposed ghost did the opposite, and answered without hesitation.
”I don't care about that... Now all have answered... Hey your name is Evangeline right? I know you like that boy called Alex.” After answering all the questions, the supposed ghost called Alice, talked to Evangeline, but this time it didn't echo throughout the room. This time Alice was actually whispering to Evangeline, or that's what it felt like.
”I know you like Alex, if you let me go, I can help you with your love life.” Evangeline even knowing that this was a trickcouldn't help but hesitate. It wasn't just her, everyone at this moment was being talked to by the supposed ghost.
”Don't you wish that you were like any normal boy? I can grant you that wish, if you just let me out.” Alex who was being offered such a thing was confused. He was confused not by the offer, but by the voice of the little girl, it changed tone and pitch also it was not echoing in the room anymore.
'This feeling is familiar... But what is it?'
While Alex was figuring out what was happening, Rachel was also having some trouble of her own.
”I know that you want to know how Alex really feels about you. I know that even though you think he loves you. You are never truly sure, since he has never said it directly. Free me and I can tell what it is that is in his heart.”
Rachel who heard the voice of the little girl right beside her was amazed. It was like Alice could read the deepest parts of her heart. At this point Rachel could no longer hear the ticking of the clock, but she could still smell the burning of a candle.
Kei was also being offered something by Alice.
”I know you want to know everything about the members of the Mercenary Club. Your curiosity is enormous. I can grant you the information you so desire, just set me free open your eyes and let go of the hand you hold.”
...
While everyone was being offered something by a ghostly voice of a little girl, Oliver was having a different experience. His head was aching and at this point it felt like it was going to explode. In front of his very eyes the scenery was changing into something hellish.
Oliver saw a very young him, standing in front of some soldiers that looked to be Berdonian. He using a pistol shot right in the middle of their foreheads. The young Oliver had no remorse in his eyes, and his face was like Alex's emotionless.
He kept on moving forward in the field of raining bullets. He killed a soldier, picked up his gun and continued to kill all that was in his way. Oliver saw this scene and was frightened at how efficiently his younger self was killing the soldiers and mercenaries.
Until finally Oliver saw a landmark that made him realize where this was taking place. This was the fields of the Hertia Province. Then this must be the battle nine years ago, when Berdonia lost the Hertia Province to the Southern Union.
