Chapter 625: Chapter 625 Sam
Inside the Farm Convenience Store.
Due to the original shop owner’s death.
The establishnt is now taken over by a young lad, the straw-man youth who provided Han Dong with information about the church.
Despite being fully transford into straw due to a curse, the lad in the typical rural denim overalls, leather shoes, and hat, seed rather human.
He dishes out the Corned Beef Stew, cooked by his father, to Han Dong and his party.
“Thank you.”
Living amidst this peaceful countryside with these straw villagers poses no danger, and as long as one’s mind can accept it, it’s quite enjoyable.
After a hearty al, Han Dong also packs so fast-food from the convenience store to snack on during the journey… Saying farewell to the hardworking straw family with a wave of his hand as he leaves.
On their way back to the farmhouse where they were staying.
Han Dong and his party chanced upon a straw child sitting on a “Shell” along the countryside road… Even with the Little Demon Eye activated, no difference could be discerned between the straw child and a common strawman.
“Nicholas…is this an Other Resident? Why is there such a huge difference?”
It was difficult for Cass to label such an adorable child and the human demon, Miles, who had been hunting them, as Other Residents alike. The gap was simply too vast.
“Who knows?”
Han Dong draped an arm over Cass’s shoulder as they walked back to the farmhouse together.
Since the farm was completely safe and a special Other Resident was looking after Han Dong, they didn’t take too many protective asures… They took out two critical items directly in the farmhouse’s central hall.
1. The Resident Register – Derry Town
2. The Resident Committee Certification dal
Having defeated the matriarch and destroyed the underground workshop, thus completing the corresponding side quests.
Han Dong also received the Other Resident’s illustrative information about Misato Farm.
“Being able to gain information about Other Residents from side quests of not particularly high difficulty, enabling us to understand the various odd abilities of the Other Residents in advance,
This should also be one of Fate Space’s asures to intentionally lower the difficulty…”
In Han Dong’s illustrative book,

The secret of Sam’s origin.
So say that it was born on Halloween, transford from the divine nature of the festival itself, which worsened due to many young people wantonly destroying the pumpkin lanterns, and then combined with the fragnts of the shattered lanterns.
Resulting in a terrifying pumpkin monster, its body constituted of straw.
Others say that Sam was born in a sinful corn farm.
Witnessing the wrongdoings that occurred at the farm over a long period, the scarecrow also accumulated resentnt.
When the resentnt reached a certain level, it gave birth to its own consciousness and ford a sentient scarecrow.
Sam’s straw can easily draw out the soul of others, and the ‘Shell’ then severs the drawn-out soul.
For participants of Fate, any individual who satisfies either of the following two conditions will have their soul extracted by Sam:
1. When the ‘Straw Disease’ coverage exceeds 30%, Sam’s touch can extract the soul. When the ‘Straw Disease’ coverage exceeds 80%, Sam can remotely extract the soul.
2. The individual suffers direct damage from the ‘Shell’ (sickle), causing a ‘Gap in the Body’, and Sam can extract the soul corresponding to the wound by touch.
Once the soul is cut off, it can only be repaired by the system upon leaving the Fate Space.
Before that, the user will permanently lose their right to use the corresponding part (death is imdiate if the brain’s soul is cut off).
[Straw Disease]: A
When within Sam’s territory, the curse of ‘Straw Disease’ applies and is unavoidable.
The curse will intensify under the following circumstances:
1. Upon being injured by any Scarecrow.
2. Upon receiving a direct attack from Sam or his Shell.
The curse will be eliminated or reduced under the following circumstances:
1. Leaving Sam’s domain (eliminated).
2. Helping Sam complete special events (eliminated or reduced).
3. Obtaining potion within Sam’s [Corn Land Paradise] (reduced).
Note: The curse of the Straw Disease only causes the body to be straw-like and does not affect a person’s self-awareness, mobility, and other basic attributes, but soul reaping is affected.
[Lonely Sam]: Non-graded
Sam will take the initiative to interact with strangers upon eting for the first ti, and he will not display any hostility.
Based on strangers’ ‘expressed emotions’ and ‘perford actions’, he assigns one of the four labels – [Good Person], [Ordinary Stranger], [Unpleasant], [Bad Eggs].
Once a label is affixed, it cannot be changed by any ans.
[Good Person]: While in Sam’s domain, you will not be affected by the curse and can move freely. After helping Sam deal with so problems, you can receive corresponding rewards.
[Ordinary Stranger]: Will be affected by the curse. Cannot stay in Sam’s domain for a long ti but can help Sam deal with problems and receive so rewards
[Unpleasant]: Will be afflicted by the curse. Regularly attacked by Scarecrows other than Sam. Cannot trigger any events to ‘help Sam’.
In special circumstances, Sam will also attack.
[Bad Eggs]: If in Sam’s domain, will face absolute pursuit and horrendous curse addition – Don’t ss with a child!
Inherent Equipnt (Cannot be dropped, only the corresponding Resident can have):
‘Sam’s Corn Candy’
Grade: E-
Category: Sweets
Distance: 1 (nearest attack range)
Sam’s favourite snack. He will give the candy to strangers labelled as [Good Person].’
‘Soul Harvester (Sickle)’
Rating: B
Type: Lethal Weapon
Distance: 1-4 (maximum length of the sickle)
A terrifying weapon made by infusing the souls of evil people collected by Sam into the sickle – ‘Shell Specific’.
Combined with Sam’s soul attraction ability, it can directly destroy the target’s soul. The sickle itself possesses a high level of cutting performance, capable of destroying physical bodies and creating ‘Gaps in the Body’.
[Comprehensive Resident Ranking]: NO.7
“Seventh …”
Han Dong had so guess, after all, he had witnessed the whole process of the matriarch’s execution… Such a thod that can directly damage the soul is naturally quite terrifying.
Once Sam injures the body, it cannot be repaired before the end of the Fate event.
“It seems, Sam and the singing woman I t in the Other Chapter belong to the sa level.
The intensity of the Other Chapter is really horrifying.”
After browsing through the bestiary information, Han Dong turned his gaze to the ‘Resident Committee’s Recognition dal’ in his hand.
Ding Dong! [Resident Task] activated.
