Dark Tales Of The Unknown

Veiled Realities

As Lucian arrived at grand city, he saw dark energy covering the entire bellephantom street.

He could see hints of red in the dark energy surrounding the street, red energy symbolises malicious ghosts.

Lucian frowned, "this is not good, the list clearly said 4 more until she becomes a malicious ghost... But it's different here." He muttered as he checked the list.

*Christine, a half insane ghost on the verge of becoming a malicious ghost.

Status: Half-Sane

Warning! 3 more souls to become a malicious ghost*

"It has become 3..." Lucian frowned as he spoke, his expression serious.

'Was she always this strong? Why didn't any caretaker seal her? She only has 3 more to become a malicious ghost... Why didn't anyone seal her?' he pondered as his dark red eyes turned white.

His eyes returned to their normal color as confusion emerged on his face.

"Humans have no hand in this..." He muttered.

'i need to report it to the higher ups, something is amiss.' he concluded, his brows furrowed as his gaze stayed on the list.

"Are you slacking off again?" A deep and sharp voice resonated through the sky.

Lucian's eyes widened and the air fluctuated around him as if to reflect his feelings.

He turned around, his gaze headed towards the voice.

A man with dark black hair and blood red eyes, it was Casper.

"B-boss!" Lucian stammered as he greeted him.

After a brief awkward silence,

Lucian answered the question, "I just found something amiss about this ghost, haunting the bellephantom street and was about to inform you but... Here you are." He seriously explained, with an expressionless face.

Casper's eyes held amusement as he let Lucian speak without interrupting.

"The ghost's name?" He asked his gaze heading towards bellephantom street.

In his eyes, the place was surrounded with dark energy but red energy was slowly starting to emerge.

His gaze was devoid of emotions as he watched the red energy grow stronger.

"Christine, she is half insane but neither her grievance nor her resentment was this high when she died." Lucian explained some basic information about her.

Lucian peeked at Casper, he gulped before continuing.

"She killed the person who killed her and also the ones who resided in this street before and to this day she has been devouring the souls of those who use this street."

"She should have been sealed earlier." Casper lightly commented with a smile.

Lucian avoided looking at Casper before explaining, "yes sir, but somehow no one has noticed her till now, I only just came across her on the list."

'i...what should I do, if he decided to vent his anger on me...' Lucian's mind was occupied with his thoughts but he responded and acted normal.

"I don't know why no caretaker has sealed her Yet." Lucian said as he flipped the list in his hands.

"It seems like everyone has become lazy these days." Casper commented, his gaze devoid of emotions started at Lucian now.

Lucian felt like a weight was pressing on him, he felt his soul weaken as his boss's gaze stayed on him, it was like his soul was being slowly crushed.
