Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Victor’s mother was sick. Her illness ca very strangely. When Victor heard that Alia had saved the young master of the Spencer family, Oliver, and after what happened with the auspicious light just now, he wondered if he had a chance to invite the Walton family’s little ancestor over to treat his mother.
As Victor walked in, he instructed his assistant beside him, “Rember, in the future, when Miss Alia cos over, you don’t need to ask permission. Just invite the best cakemaker to make a cake for Miss Alia. Also, Miss Alia can’t eat anything too sweet. She’ll get cavities. She doesn’t like chocolate-flavored things. She likes fruit cake and fruit candy. Write this in the employee handbook.”
The assistant was speechless. Why was this written in the employee handbook?
In her sleep, Alia felt soone staring at her. She opened her eyes and saw an old lady in a green Tang suit staring straight at her. Alia was shocked and suddenly stood up.
Elr was shocked and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Alia’s eyes were still filled with fear. “Master, I saw an old Grandma in my dream. She was so scary.”
Elr was stunned and asked, “What kind of Grandma?”
Alia gestured. “It’s an old Grandma with sunken eyes, sunken cheeks, and green eyes…”
Elr asked, “Have you seen her before?”
Alia shook her head. “No.”
Elr narrowed his eyes. The skin and bones were sunken, and the eyes were green. This was the appearance of a dead person. Most importantly, Alia had never seen this person. Last ti, Alia could see Si Rufeng in her dreams because she had seen him in real life. Now, the dead soul that had barged into her dream was soone she had never seen before. This ant that so dead souls were starting to look for Alia.
Elr’s expression was solemn. “Mia, have you seen anyone else in your dreams?”
Alia shook her head and asked curiously, “Master, what’s wrong?” Her master’s expression was a little heavy.
Elr said, “Mia, you have to tell Master everything you dream of in the future, understand?” After a mont, he looked at Alia and asked, “Do you know why Master has always been by your side?”
Alia, who had just woken up, was still a little confused. She rubbed her eyes. “I know. Master, didn’t you say that Mom asked you to co? Also, you have to teach Mia divination and catching ghosts…”
Elr was silent for a mont. Previously, he had also thought that eting
Alia’s mother, Helena, was a coincidence. He had promised her to protect Alia for a period of ti because he was kind-hearted. However, later on, when he ca into contact with Alia, he realized that Alia’s life was not so easy to protect. She needed rit to extend her life. Now… He opened the notebook he carried with him and saw a line of bright red notes under Alia’s na: If she wants soone to die in the third watch, the person won’t be able to stay until the fifth watch.
It seed that only the King of Hell had this ability, right? Elr was a little confused. Back then, did he really et Helena, who was about to die, and ca to Alia’s side by a freak combination of factors?
Elr asked, “Mia, do you still rember the Soul-Retrieving Gourd that
Master gave you?”
Alia raised her hand, revealing her fair and tender arm. There was a red string tied to her wrist, and a small gourd was tied to the string. “I rember. It’s here.”
Elr raised his head and gently touched the Soul-Retrieving Gourd. “Master didn’t tell you before that this Soul-Retrieving Gourd has to be filled. If it can’t be filled, Mia might have to leave…”
Alia’s sleepiness imdiately disappeared. “Leave? Where is Mia going?” She had just t her uncles, grandfather, and grandmother, so she did not want to leave.
Elr pursed his lips. “Go to a faraway place and never co back.”
Alia pursed her lips and suddenly got up. She went to the washroom to turn on the tap and pour water into the Soul-Retrieving Gourd. The Soul-Retrieving Gourd was very small, and the tap flowed, but it did not seem to have poured any water in.
The corners of Elr’s mouth twitched. “Mia, this Soul-Retrieving Gourd is called the Soul-Retrieving Gourd because it can only store souls.”
Alia exclaid and was worried. “Then what should we do?”
Elr said, “Go fill it with ghosts. Just fill it up.” He opened the book and said as he read, “If you fill it with wandering ghosts, you need a hundred to fill it. If you fill it with malicious ghosts, you need forty-nine. To fill it with evil ghosts, you need eighteen.”
Alia nodded.. “I understand!” She leaned closer to take a look and asked, “Master, did the ugly auntie fill up the gourd?”
