Surviving in a School of Ghost Stories Chapter 116

I sat on a bench in the town park and exhaled. I was dizzy from the nosebleed, but after a while, I felt a little better.

“Senior, are you okay? Why don’t you go to the hospital?”

I was grateful that Easton had been worrying about the whole ti, but it was also burdenso.

‘It’s not that serious.’

When I shook my head, Easton gave up and stopped talking about the hospital.

Instead, he was kind enough to lend his handkerchief when it was soaked with blood and unusable.

“I’m really okay. Thank you.”

I felt a new emotion as I took his handkerchief and wiped my nosebleed.

Thoughts like what it would have been like if I had lived an ordinary life kept swirling around in my head.

If I had been born into an ordinary family and entered school as an ordinary person, I might have had a happier school life.

I liked studying and was greedy, so I might have even beco the student council president.

‘The sun is hot.’

I looked up at the sky. Even though it was late autumn, the midday heat was intense.

Just looking at the sky, it was so peaceful.

Then I thought of the Duke of Lauderdale and his daughter whom I had t a little while ago.

Leaving the Pope and the Crown Prince at the café, the Duke of Lauderdale and Lady Angela got up first.

They got up first, saying they would look around the town and see the school.

After receiving the guests and following them late, I found Lady Lauderdale standing alone on the town street.

“You said that Lady Angela received candy earlier. This may sound strange, but can you give that candy? I think it contains so bad ingredients.”

“Oh, that candy... Wait a minute.”

She readily handed the candy. As if she found the candy unpleasant.

That gesture made suddenly think of the Pope. The Pope who offered the candy was a bit strange, because the Duke of Lauderdale and Lady Lauderdale were there with him.

I hesitated for a mont and then asked her.

“Uh... didn’t the Pope act a bit strange earlier?”

Lady Lauderdale’s expression changed slightly at my question. She seed surprised, and at the sa ti, she seed terrified as if she had rembered that mont.

“Do you see anything there?”

“Yes. A little. The Pope looked like he was possessed by an evil spirit.”

“Actually, sothing happened when we first arrived on the island......”

It was said that when outsiders arrived on the island, the Pope vomited blood and collapsed.

And it seed like black shadows were eating the Pope. Above all, he recited a prayer of liberation with a strange and jumbled sentence.

The evil spirits would recite the prayer of liberation as if they were mocking humans. So that’s the characteristic of an evil spirit.

While I was seriously thinking about that part, Lauderdale Young-ae asked .

“Are you a shaman? Or a priest? Or is there a shaman or priest in your family?”

“No, not at all. I’m just an ordinary person born in an ordinary family. My family is also ordinary.”

“That’s strange. Anyway, it’s nice to et you.”

Lauderdale Young-ae had a refreshing impression. And she didn’t seem particularly interested in anything.

She was said to be a nun, but even though she was a priest, she didn’t seem to like the Pope very much.

Well, Father Cesario actually added to that. He really, really hated the Pope. He said that an unfaithful person beca the Pope.

Anyway, I warned Lauderdale Young-ae.

“Be careful. There are many strange things on this island.”

“I know. I learned a lot about the evil things sleeping here in the convent.”

“The convent?”

“Yes. I was in the convent where Sister Gloria lived a hundred years ago.”

“I see. If you ever experience anything strange, co see . Ask anyone about lody Hastings and they’ll tell you everything. I’m a famous person.”

“It’s an honor to be talking to soone so famous.”

“Not as much as Lady Lauderdale. Even this remote island village was buzzing with news of the convent.”

We exchanged a few more words, and then she said she’d forgotten and handed the Duke of Lauderdale’s candy.

While I was getting the candy from her, the Duke showed up.

The Duke of Lauderdale thought I was stealing the candy from Lady Lauderdale.

He snatched the candy from my hand, and in the process, he pushed slightly, causing to fall.

‘I’m not originally this weak.’

I’ve been feeling completely weak lately.

It’s not easy to co to such an extre conclusion based on a re exchange of candy, but after hearing the Duke’s apology, I understood.

There were several kidnapping attempts in the capital.

I thought that maybe that’s why I didn’t eat the candy.

Anyway, I felt a sense of emptiness in my heart as I watched Lauderdale’s daughter walk away while receiving the Duke’s utmost care.

I think I was jealous for a mont. I’ve never seen my father.

I don’t know what it was like before I lost my mory when I was seven, but it definitely wasn’t there after I was seven.

While I was stopping the bleeding with Easton’s handkerchief, soone ca looking for us.

“I’ve been looking for a long ti, but here it is! The extra edition has been published! It was published in a hurry, so there’s only a small amount. The village children will spread it!”

I saw Raven running into the /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ park. He was holding several extras in his hand that seed to have been published a little while ago.

Senior Oliver Henswix had faithfully carried out my request. It was like a reward for the courage test incident, or sothing.

“Why are you like this, Sister?”

Raven asked with a serious face, perhaps noticing my condition until he got closer.

“I just fell over.”

I answered roughly like that and glanced at Easton. He also imdiately noticed why I answered that way and didn’t say anything. He was a very perceptive kid.

‘He seems to be prickly, but he’s actually very considerate and takes care of people.’

I didn’t know he would take my side in front of his father and sister.

Besides, wasn’t this the first ti we t my sister, Lauderdale Youngae?

Easton didn’t seem to have any particular feelings for her.

“I don’t know why my body beca like a glass ball. You need to take care of yourself.”

Raven’s nagging began. I turned a deaf ear to his nagging and opened the extra edition.

[Student council president declares that he will not attend the sealing ceremony that will be the finale of the Night of the Dead. Student representative voluntarily resigns? Who will be the temporary student representative who will perform the sealing ceremony... ...?!]

In the extra edition, Noah-senpai explained why he will not attend the sealing ceremony as student council president.

The director of the St. Gloria Private School Hospital appeared and interviewed Noah-senpai, saying that he currently needs ntal and physical stability.

“Wow. The hospital director, who is hard to et even once, is interviewing you? As expected of the president.”

Easton muttered as he read the extra edition with .

Then, the extra edition listed who the student representatives who will attend the sealing ceremony will be.

However, since the top and second place students of each grade exercised their right to veto, and even the consent form with their signatures was made public, I was the only one who could do it.

[Night of the Dead, the 100th student representative is lody Hastings!]

The article was written in the extra edition as if it was completely confird that I was the one.

Even if the school officials tried to take care of it later, it was already too late.

The extra edition was distributed throughout the town, which was already bustling with festival preparations and distracted.

‘How should I use Vidar?’

I had control over the king, but I was worried about how to use it.

I didn’t know if calling him would have any negative effects on Noah.

‘But if there’s a problem during the sealing ceremony, it would be better to call Vidar.’

I don’t know why a king or sothing like that gave control and took on the role of a hidden card. But since I was given the card, shouldn’t I make the most of it?

Concluding that, I folded the handkerchief I was holding and put it in my pocket. My nosebleed had completely stopped.

“Should I check again to see if the candy was collected safely?”

Easton and Raven nodded at my answer and helped up. I gratefully accepted their kindness and got up from my seat.

Then we left the park and walked around the town streets, checking the list of stores that were selling candy and checking the items.

“Wow. What is this?”

My eyes sparkled as I looked at the street food.

The most eye-catching of them were fried potatoes sprinkled with sugar, chili sauce, and cheese.

“This looks delicious.”

After staring blankly at the fried potato dish, I felt Raven and Easton’s gaze and coughed politely.

I felt embarrassed in front of my younger siblings.

‘But it was my first ti to see a festival, so I was so excited that I didn’t even realize it... ... .’

I was embarrassed and scratched my head as I tried to turn around, but Raven and Easton each grabbed my arms.

“Wait, Sister. I’ll buy you sothing.”

“Have one, Senior.”

And then, before I could answer, they ordered a potato dish.

No, really, you don’t have to... ... .

I swallowed hard as I said that to myself and looked at the backs of Easton and Raven.

‘Huh? What’s that?’

At that mont, I noticed a crowd of people gathered at the end of the town street, making a fuss.
