My Iyashikei Game

Chapter 358

358 Grade E Main Mission

The tingling of the bells was more intense than before. The bells seemed to represent something, it sounded like they could temporarily affect the headless guardian. As the tingling grew louder, Han Fei sensed the whole corridor changing.

The mouths of the unrecognizable heads mumbled something, it sounded like they were chanting the door guardian’s name. Red blood vessels were pulled out from the heads and the guardian turned increasingly corporeal. He didn’t look like a guardian who walked out from the door but a ghost trapped inside a door.

The blood vessels crawled around his body. His fingers that grabbed the guillotine knife tightened. He dragged the giant blade and then slowly turned to look behind Han Fei.

“Head, my head…” The voice echoed in Han Fei’s ears and he was spooked. Looking from the corner of his eyes, Han Fei saw something terrifying. The blood vessels were climbing into his ears to crawl into his brain.

“Your head is not with me!” Han Fei retreated as the door guardian raised his blade. Without wasting another word, he swung the blade!

The smell of blood crawled into his nostrils. Han Fei forced himself to keep his eyes open to avoid the blade but the blade was too fast. The moment he saw the door guardian move, the blade was already at his back!

A chill came from his back and Han Fei heard something being severed. ‘The Soul Chaser is still here?’ Han Fei wanted to turn around but the door guardian’s blood lines were beside his ears. If he moved too suddenly, the lines would pierce through his brain. There was less than 2 minutes left to the Soul Chaser mission. The Soul Chaser was desperate too. He needed something from Han Fei, Han Fei’s soul was an irreparable part of the ritual, he had to get it!

The soul bells shattered and Han Fei’s ears bled. He temporarily lost his sense of hearing but he could feel a hand reaching towards his brain!

He had goosebumps. As he turned around, he felt something touch the back of his head. Different from before, this time, Han Fei could feel something pulling at the thing deep inside his mind. All his memories, good and bad, were twisted into a rope. The rope reached deep into Han Fei’s mind. As the external force pulled, the memory rope slowly rose. The rope turned red, the deepest memory Han Fei had was bloody red in color!

The dark night was slowly dyed red. As the sole survivor of Happiness Orphanage, the things that Han Fei’s childhood psychiatrist helped to suppress were slowly coming up to the surface. Before the memory fully showed itself, Han Fei’s mind was already dyed red. Fragmented memory rushed into his heart. Han Fei’s pupils narrowed and Rest in Peace suddenly materialized in his hand.

He ignored the door guardian’s blood lines as he turned around for the 4th time, he pierced the blade at the thing behind him. The shiny blade reflected a face crying bloody tears. Han Fei saw a hand covered in Death Curse. In the middle of the palm was the word, Soul.

Currently the hand was dragging out another semblance of Han Fei from the back of Han Fei’s head. This dragged out Han Fei was different from the previous Han Fei’s. His forehead was bleeding and he had an exaggerated smile on his face like he was mocking the whole world.

‘Is that really me?’

This was the first time the Soul Chaser encountered something like this as well. He had pursued many souls. His hand covered in Death Curses could easily pierce through the body of the living and memory of the dead. But today he ran into a special soul, the soul was cackling at him!

The Death Curses on his arm boiled. Even though the Soul Chaser was already using all his strength, he could not drag the laughing Han Fei out. The soul appeared to be attached to something else, something buried deep inside that sea of red in the man’s mind. Han Fei was equally as shocked as the Soul Chaser. He looked at himself, who seemed to suffer from gelotolepsy. He was reminded of the old lady from Happiness Neighbourhood.

Fu Sheng had done something to Granny Meng’s memory. Whenever she was reminded of her death, a scary monster would reach out from the back of her head, turning the normally kind and friendly old lady into a monster. Back then, Han Fei was quite scared. He didn’t expect something similar would happen to him today. Compared to the monster that came out from Granny Meng, this soul that was pulled out from his mind was much more terrifying.

The Soul Chaser wanted to give it a second yank. But at that moment, the immeasurably sharp guillotine knife was already coming at him!

The arm that grabbed Han Fei’s soul was severed. The arm covered in Death Curses dropped to the ground. Han Fei finally got a good look at the Soul Chaser’s face!

Half of the man’s face had the word, Soul and Death Curse radiated from it, the other half was the face of the employee from Immortal Pharma!

The butterfly pattern grew from the corner of his eyes to his lips. He had been made into a true monster. He was like a puppet. His face was carved in pain, regret and sadness. He had once massacred the whole neighbourhood and now he had to personally collect these people’s souls. The saddest thing was until now, he had no idea if he had done the right thing or not.

When the Soul Chaser’s face was seen, the Death Curses on his body exploded. The face covered in Death Curse morphed to take on Han Fei’s resemblance. But probably because Han Fei’s soul hadn’t fully been drawn out, the transformation of the Soul Chaser didn’t go all the way through. With Han Fei watching on, half of the Soul Chaser’s face was screaming in pain. Eventually, this half of his face tore away from the Soul Chaser and they morphed into 3 different Han Fei’s. Engulfed in a cocoon of Death Curse, they were carried by an invisible force up to the top floor!

All three Han Fei’s were covered in Death Curses. The Death Curses hooked through their bodies, causing them unimaginable pain.

“Only 3? Butterfly, your Death Curse can’t even steal away a living person’s complete soul?” The Soul Chaser’s lips split open as he attempted a smile. This was the first time he wanted to smile since he was trapped at Ziggurat. The Soul Chaser’s mouth opened and Han Fei realized the butterfly tattoo had even grown into the Soul Chaser’s mouth. His entire body, both internally and externally, was dominated by butterfly tattoos.

The Soul Chaser was in a very dangerous and unstable state. He used the last lucid moment he had to turn to Han Fei. “The Night of Resurrection has begun. Summon back your lost souls and help me… kill the Butterfly!” Then the Soul Chaser’s body was shredded. His soul descended like snow before disappearing completely.

“Notification for Player 0000! You saw the face of the Soul Chaser when you turned around for the 4th time! You’ve completed the preliminary mission for Grade E Main Mission—Night of Resurrection! You’ve successfully triggered the Grade E Main Mission—Night of Resurrection!”
