Chapter 350 - Why Me??- Part 1
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Belle had a look of shock on her face, staring at her aunt who had been shot right at the centre of her head, in front of her by Lucas, who had returned home a minute ago. She was speaking to her aunt Irene, trying to get her out of the mansion as quick as possible. She had seen this before, this melted body and her eyebrows drew in together in a deep frown. A switcher...but there was something more in here because she caught sight of a shadow that started to slip away and Lucas snapped his finger for the shadow to stop that was trying to escape.
She quickly stepped away from it, seeing how the shadow was trying to move closer to each other, like threads going to a particular spot to create a creature.
"Is this is a spirit?" asked Belle, her hands had already pulled out the blue light from her hand.
"I didn't know we had a guest from the land of the dead," commented Greed to pull out his scythe.
"Why don't we send it back away?" asked Belle, it was because they had done it in the past. The first time when dozens of the spirits had come to take shelter in the Adams' mansion.
Lucas himself had pulled out his scythe, "They are various versions of spirits. This one is improvised. Switchers more or less creatures who are born from fusing, that starts from the spirits who consume souls and other things. When you kill the switcher, the spirit tries to run escape back to the dead to latch on something again."
As seconds passed by, Belle saw how the creature was getting a body. Hands and legs, where it looked like it was sitting on its heels with its thin hands forward.
She saw the resemblance of her aunt in the spirit as it appeared that it still had some essence in it. As the thought sank, she realised this meant her aunt was dead. How did she even come in contact with the switcher?
"Belle, move back," warned Lucas and she was about to ask why, but being the closest to the creature, the creature stood up and moved its hand to send her flying. Her body hit against the glass shelves. Glass pieces broke from the shield to fall on the ground and she flinched with the force she was thrown. It seemed like this one was extremely strong and it tried even to throw Lucas off, but when he raised his hand, it couldn't do anything.
But seeing Greed who stood behind Lucas, the creature attacked him, and he fell back.
"That's enough," said he and Lucas whispered something that creature a circle around the creature and he flicked his fingers to snap the creature like a little explosion that had Belle raise her hand to prevent the dust and smoke getting into her eyes.
"Was that my aunt?" asked Belle, confused as she didn't know what was what.
"Seeing how she was talking to you, I would say yes," answered Lucas. He had walked to her, giving his hand for her to take, and she got up, "Are you okay?" he inspected her hands.
"I am okay," Belle answered. Seeing the smoke started to reduce where the dust was settling down on the ground, she found the circle gone, and so was the creature, "Won't it come back?" she asked him.
"Not any time soon," answered Lucas.
She was torn in knowing about what happened to her aunt, but there was something else she wanted to confirm before that, "How is Penelope?" asked Belle.
"Breathing," and she felt relieved hearing this.
A weight was lifted from her shoulders, and she felt she could finally breathe even though the mess about her aunt was yet to be fixed.
When she had first met Edith, the oracle Grim had mentioned how she was supposed to help in saving the two stars as they would die and she had died too, to come back alive and she only hoped that she wasn't going to die for the second time. At least now she knew that there was no more need of her involvement when it came to the alignment of stars.
This meant she was free, and she could concentrate on the land of the dead now in bringing the Hawvert down who was trying to create problems by sending the other Grims against Lucas and others.
At the same time, Barron entered the mansion on hearing the sound that came from Lucas snapping his fingers. As he was stuck in the apple tree, eating apples one after another, the rabbit had not noticed Lucas appear in front of the door and going in.
"What happened here?" asked Barron, his head moving back and forth to see smoke. He moved his flabby hand in front of him, "Why is there smoke here?"
Greed, who stood up, cracked his bones after crashing against the walls, stared at Barron, "There was a switchers spirit in the aunt's body."
Barron looked back and forth, seeing people not panicking and having their scythe turning invisible, he said, "I am glad that you took care of the switcher. I wouldn't want to cover myself in the dust. How did we not find out? How did you find out?" asked the rabbit.
Belle stared at Lucas because he had told her to be careful, but who knew that they had a switcher in the mansion?!
"I found her complexion to be strange, but I thought it was because of winter. It was only after I saw the shadow behind her back I found out that it was the switcher's spirit," answered Lucas, "I thought you would find out what was going on by the time I found out. We don't know what creatures pop out and what they turn out to be. It is possible that Winston doesn't want to fuse the land of the dead and the living, but he also wants to fuse the creatures. To create a mutation between each other."
