Surviving in a School of Ghost Stories Chapter 98

I don’t know what happened.

I was just resting behind the cafe.

Suddenly, I was trapped in the ‘other world’.

This was definitely the ‘other world’. I knew it instinctively.

I was in a town, but it wasn’t a town. It was like looking at the other side of a mirror.

The student ghosts disappeared from sight as soon as they realized I was in the ‘other world’. Maybe that was a good thing.

I decided it would be better to hide in the nearest store and then run away to a familiar place.

The cafe where I worked part-ti was right next door.

Please, Leonard and Mrs. Lewis are there. Please.

I sll human.

Sothing unidentifiable kept looking for . I broke out in a cold sweat.

I escaped the clothing store where I was hiding and ran straight to the cafe.

I sll human.

I sll human.

I sll human.

And the voice was approaching at an incredible speed. It seed to be chasing after slling .

I turned my head slightly at the sound of the voice chasing closely.

A huge mass was running towards at a high speed from the end of the street in the town.

When I looked closely, it wasn’t a mass, but a man. A man with long limbs that stretched out like a spider and crawling on all fours.

He had a face, but no eyes. The places where his eyes should have been were flat. It was as if his face didn’t exist to begin with.

A long, wet, mucus-like substance left behind him as he passed by, twisting his limbs bizarrely.

It couldn’t have been anything but a creepy sight.

Cold sweat dripped down my forehead and sweat pooled on my palms.

I finally reached the café, opened the door, and went inside.

But as expected, the café was dark and there were no traces of people anywhere.

The floor was covered in blood. I don’t know whose blood it was. °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° The cafe was a ss. I looked around confusedly, lost.

Where, where should I hide?

I sll a human.

I kept hearing voices calling for from outside. My heart grew impatient. I had to find a place to hide.

‘lody, think.’

If it was ‘the other world,’ there must have been a dium that brought here.

‘The only dium was a candle.’

However, the candle disappeared the mont I entered ‘the other world.’

Where can I find a candle?

That was when.

“Here, here.”

I heard a voice calling from sowhere, but it was not from outside, but from inside.

The hair on my body stood on end.

I held the cross necklace around my neck tightly in my hand, tense.

Even when I wasn’t wearing my school uniform, I always wore this blessed cross necklace. Just in case sothing like this happened.

Of course, this necklace didn’t have a huge effect, but it did have a temporary effect in chasing away evil spirits.

“Here, here.”

I kept hearing a voice calling . But strangely, there was no poison in the voice. It sounded just like a person’s voice.

The voice of the guy chasing outside gave goosebumps from head to toe the mont I heard it.

But the voice I was hearing now inside the cafe sounded a bit strange, as if it had been layered on top of each other, but it sounded sowhat comfortable.

Could it be a survivor? Or a commander who had fallen victim to a ghost story?

I continued to look inside the cafe.

For now, there was no one in the store. I looked around and checked the ti.

The ti was 4 p.m.

When I was in reality, the sunset was almost over. It must have been around 7 p.m. at the most.

“This way.”

I ca to my senses and turned my head when I heard the voice again.

This ti, it was a little closer.

It was a sound from the kitchen. I slowly walked around the counter and ducked under the table.

Knock knock knock knock-

Kaaaah!

I could hear the sound of a spider spirit passing by outside the cafe. It must have ducked under the table at a good ti and didn't see .

It slls like a human

Where are you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The one wandering around outside seed to be very angry because he couldn't find .

Kwaang!

Then I heard the sound of soone slamming the cafe door hard.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

It seed like he was trying to co into the cafe. This is a big deal. I quickly looked for a way out.

The back door of the kitchen. That is, the door Leonard took out through.

Here he is. Here he is. Here he is. Here he is. Here he is. Here he is. Here he is.

Then I stopped in my tracks at the sound I heard outside the cafe door. Here it is, Lani. It was as if she had found .

Look. Here it is.

The next voice I heard ca from above.

Drop.

Drop.

Sothing wet was falling from above to the floor.

My body froze stiffly. I slowly raised my head, which was still motionless.

Then my eyes t with the man sitting on the kitchen table, looking down at .

No. To be exact, the man’s eyes were not there. But it felt like our eyes had t.

I found him.

The man smirked. The corners of his mouth were torn all the way to his ears, and the teeth that were exposed inside his lips were sharp and close together like awls.

I quickly rolled on the floor. To be exact, it was a floor covered in blood.

So I rolled on the floor, covered in blood, and hid behind the refrigerator.

Huh? Where... ... Where did you go... ... .

And when I covered myself in blood, I saw the thing looking around confused for a mont.

However, if there was even the slightest sound, I would recognize it like a ghost and run towards it.

I couldn’t move.

That’s when I thought, ‘This is a big deal.’

Soone grabbed my arm. I was startled and tried to shake it off, but I covered my mouth.

Shh.

When I turned around, I saw a boy. He was wearing the uniform of St. Gloria Private School.

He had soft brown hair and deep blue eyes like the deep sea.

The boy’s uniform didn’t have a na tag, so I couldn’t confirm his na, but he was definitely different from ‘those things.’

I couldn’t say for sure that he was a human, but he definitely wasn’t an evil spirit.

‘So he’s a commander?’

I looked at him, putting my weight on this side.

He hid under the table with my mouth covered, and I looked at the ‘thing’ that was rummaging around the cafe.

“This way, slowly.”

He eventually led inside the kitchen. We moved slowly.

I looked around while moving, looking for a candle. That must have been the dium that drew here.

If I could just find a candle, I could open any door and go out. I couldn’t see the candle that seed to be the dium.

“Are you looking for this?”

At that mont, the boy took out a candle from his pocket and showed it to .

“Huh?”

Shh.

The boy pressed his index finger to his lips and made quiet.

I glanced at the guy walking around the cafe with a nervous face.

Fortunately, he didn’t seem to have found us yet.

Soon, we entered the kitchen. As we slowly moved toward the back door of the kitchen, the boy asked .

“Is it the eve of the Night of the Dead? Did a lost commander drop this over there? I picked it up.”

The boy advised as I was quietly looking at the candle.

“Don’t be like and get out.”

“You...? Who are you? Are you human?”

The boy smiled bitterly at my question.

“I was human, but I think I’ll soon be no longer. I’m trapped here because I couldn’t find a dium.”

I was trapped. In the ‘other world.’ Because I couldn’t find a dium.

I looked at him, at a loss for words to respond to the confusing list of words.

Co to think of it, I’ve been finding diums to dispel ghost stories and exterminate evil spirits, so I hadn’t thought about what it would be like if I couldn’t find a dium.

If you can’t find a dium and get eaten by them, you die. And if you can’t find a dium and hide from them, you’ll be trapped in the ‘other world’ forever like this boy.

“Do you know what dium you ca here with?”

“I don’t know. My mories of when I was alive are getting blurry, so it’s not easy to rember.”

I couldn’t continue talking because of the sad story. The boy patted my shoulder with an indifferent expression as he watched .

We finally reached the back door of the kitchen. The door was slightly open.

That’s the door.

I grabbed the doorknob for the boy.

“You know what? The boundary between the ‘other world’ and reality is gradually disappearing. If the king’s seal is released, it’s really dangerous. Don’t be like and go over to the land and don’t care about ghost stories. No, just leave this island, okay?”

The boundary between the ‘other world’ and reality is disappearing. If the king’s seal is released, it’s really dangerous. I’ve heard this from Noah Sempai.

I said to him.

“How do you know that? Do you know where the king is sealed? Can you tell ? I need information about the king.”

“I don’t really know much about the king. I just picked up what the wandering commanders said.”

The boy shrugged his shoulders awkwardly. He really didn’t seem to know anything more than that.

I looked at him with a complicated expression and asked.

“I’ll help you find your dium. I want to repay your favor. What’s your na?”

“No. You can’t help . I don’t rember my na. Hastings, do you know what’s the difference between those things and humans?”

He checked my natag and called my na naturally.

“They don’t know their own nas, but humans know theirs. Don’t forget your na, no matter what.”

The boy who said that placed his hand over mine, which was holding the doorknob, and opened the door for , who hesitated.

“And don’t ever co here by mistake.”

With that, he pushed hard before I could say anything.

So I opened the door and went out.
