Chapter 49 - Peek-a-Boo (1/2)

Peek-a-boo, one disguised as a ghost, and the rest hid.

The rules of the game were straightforward. If a ghost wanted to win, they had to find the person, and if a person wanted to win, they could not be caught by a ghost.

This time, excluding Flanders, four people were participating in the competition.

One woman and three men, all caught by Flanders nearby.

“Alright, that’s all for the introduction. Next, I will give you contact and restraint.

“I’ll count to a hundred. During this period of time, I don’t need to tell you what you need to do.

“Whatever you want to do is up to you. However, I still have to warn you, don’t think about escaping.”

Flanders smiled as he looked at the four people who were sitting on the ground. With a gentle wave of his hand, the black ropes that had bound them were automatically removed.

At this moment, brook and the others noticed that it was not the rope that had helped them before but the hair.

It did not matter if they did not look at it, but they were shocked when they saw it. After the hair had separated from them, not only did it not fall off, it had instead condensed into a human shape.

It was something that they could not understand. Looking at the strange long hair, the four people were once again frightened.

As the strange long hair had already submitted to Flanders, the fear it caused could still bring fear points to Flanders.

[Fear points + 40]

[Fear points + 20]

[Fear points + 30]

[Fear points + 40]

Although the strange long hair was not very good in terms of combat strength, it did not mean that it had no other uses.

One could not limit one’s vision to combat. Mages also had scouting abilities, healing abilities, and other types of abilities.

It was naturally the same for strange things. There were strange things that were better at fighting, such as sword Apophis.

Naturally, there were also strange things that were better in other areas.

For example, long hair was strange, which was black. Compared to combat abilities, Flanders felt that its support abilities were more outstanding.

Hence, he had to develop more in this aspect.

As for combat, with sword Apophis, Flanders did not know what use black could be.

As the battle with Jarrosus, that combat level was already far from black’s ability to participate.

Therefore, during this period of time, Flanders was studying while also researching and developing black’s other uses.

His words sounded nice, but he wanted to give every chance to perform weirdly.

In reality, he did not want black to be idle.

Returning to reality, Flanders smiled and came in front of the four of them.

“Relax. I’ve already said that this is a game. There are wins and losses in the game. If you win, I’ll let you go free.”

“How does that count as the US winning?”

“When the sun rises, the light will once again appear in this manner. And I haven’t found you guys yet. That will be my victory.”

It was meaningless to play with a person to the point of collapse. If a person were completely despairing and numb, they would not be able to provide fear points.

This was not something Flanders was willing to see.

And it was necessary to put an end to this situation.

A game that was destined to fail and a game that had the possibility of continuing to live were two completely different situations.

“Alright, now the game officially begins!”

Storm of Ravens

Under the camera lens, Flanders was like a demonic god as pitch-black ravens flew out of his body one after another.

“The ravens will act as my eyes and monitor every corner of the manor.

“Of course, if that’s the case, you basically have no chance of winning, so I’ll restrict them. They won’t fly into the house.

“So, hide as much as you want and let us play happily!”

[Fear points + 40]

“Hahahaha.”

[Fear points + 70]

Flanders was not in a hurry to count out. He did not mind giving these people more time.

Looking at the increasing number of crows, Brook was shocked, but he quickly reacted.

Since the crows were Flanders’ eyes, it was most important to quickly hide in the villa and find a place to hide while there were not many crows.
