Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?-Chapter 316 Another Stranger In The City?
"Thank you, Grandmaster! Thank you!!!"
All 4 witnesses... Especially Elder Ming and elder Toma thanked Dorian profoundly.
Eh?
What was going on here?
The crowd looked at the situation, utterly confused by it all.
Seeing how swollen and red Elder Ming's eyes were, they felt they missed some juicy gossip.
Dammit! Who can tell them what is happening? Why were they unable to hear the drama through the wooden creaks, doors, and walls?
Why did everything go silent after a while?
Could it be that during that time, these people just had a staring contest with each other in silence?
'...'
No matter how they looked at it, the situation here didn't add up. Additionally, who is this old wrinkly woman with boils, a witch's long nose, hunched back, and creepy long black hair?
They didn't mean to be rude. But looking at the woman's face made them subconsciously take 2 steps back.
But wait... Even though ugly, underneath it all, they could still recognize who the old lady was!!!
How could it be Feizen? How could she change so much after entering the house for a few minutes?
F***!
Everyone was dying to know the juicy details, as well as confirm if their suspicions were true.
'Calm down... Calm down... This is a world of science. So how can this be possible?' Many inwardly murmured, thinking maybe the old lady was some close relative of Feizen they never knew about.
It was funny that they had grown up in the same village as Feizen's family and should know Feizen's relatives. Yet, they were quick to point the old lady in the 'relative' category and believe in science, rather than believing this was actually Feizen.
.
Very respectfully, Elder Ming and the rest escorted Dorian to his vehicle.
Before leaving the building, Elder Ming had already transferred what was owed to Dorian.
What surprised him was that these pendants were far cheaper than he expected.
For this, his gratitude should go to his Hulan Ming, who didn't overly affect him and his family with her ghostly aura.
A single pendant offered to him by Dorian was less expensive compared to the one Angzen wore.
Elder Ming was even more pleased, taking his of all pendants like treasures of gold.
He also wrote down the instructions on how to nourish himself and his family too.
But things didn't end there.
Dorian also sold protective talismans to every one of them, including Kizing.
You have to know that during this whole fiasco, Angzen had touched on the fact that ghosts aren't the only things moving around. What was scarier was Angzen's brief recount of his encounter in High Peak Town
The whole thing made their hairs stand erect. So how dare they not ask for protective charms?
Even if the charms don't protect them against the supernatural, they could also protect them against disasters and accidents.

.
Grab! Grab! Grab!
They even wanted to buy all protective charms they could afford.
And as Dorian had explained, some charms could last for a year, 2, and even 5. It all depended on the price. And again, some charms could last for a million years but worked on the principle of 'Chances.'
For some talismans, they were only suitable for up to 3 big disasters. Even if the next big catastrophe came a thousand years from now, the talisman would still work until the specified number of chances ran out.
This... This was also good too!
After today, their perception of the world has changed. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
Black was blue, gold was read, and the supernatural existed!
Following this, they also took Chan-ki's number, hoping to contact him if anything of this nature came up.
.
Bam.
Chan-ki closed the vehicle door and headed over to the driver's seat.
As for Angzen, he decided to stay behind and settle all matters.
At least now with all 4 witnesses on his side, they were ready to assist him in letting Feizen give all she owed.
He thought she would still be unwilling. But Feizen who was under the illusion she would change from a beast back to a beauty if she did do, was very much willing to oblige.
At least with her beauty, making more money would be super easy for her.
Anyway, he had to get enough money to rush back and pay off his loans.
Also, he wanted to see his brother-in-law and explained a few things.
Even now, he still hoped his brother-in-law would have the heart to love a 'beast.' Who knows... Maybe she would be the one to help break her spell?
Well, her appearance wouldn't change much. But maybe her heart would change.
Even after all she did, he wasn't cruel enough to wish her death or something so morbid.
Maybe this was the difference between himself and her.
Soon, the news about her deeds would begin circulating. But without any evidence, no one could send her to jail.
To be honest, it's going to be rough for her. But if she truly presented, he would wish her all the best.
.
With so much to do, Angzen had planned to round things up in no more than 4 days and take a direct trip back to the city with no stops.
That is... He couldn't afford to go through what he did in High Peak town again.
Shudder. Shudder.
Just thinking about it sent a chill down his spine.
"Student Dorian. Thank you so much for helping your teacher."
"Hmmm..." Dorian hummed through the half-winded-down window.
"Chan-ki."
"Yes, Grandmaster."
Vrmmm!!!~
Like so, the duo took off in hopes of arriving in Luxian city sometime tomorrow.
The drive was indeed a long one.
But unlike the calmness oozing off them, things were getting more interesting back in Luxian city. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
"Bastard, can't you look where you're going? Don't you have any respect for the elderly?"
"Hey, old man. Who the hell are you calling a bastard?!"
On the streets, a middle-aged man with overly long blond hair and very dark shades arrogantly chewed off a banana while arguing with an old man.
One look, and you'd know this guy was a scum of society, but not the type that looked intimidating.
No... He looked very childish, as though he were in his teenage stage of stubbornness.
But all this was just from first impressions. In truth, the man was far more deadly than many could know.
.
The youthful-looking middle-aged nonchalantly until he got to a certain hotel.
And only after he stepped into the elevator did his aura change.
Pushing his long blind hair aside, he calmly tapped the bottom of his earpiece. "No news yet."
Tut...
The conversation ended with the other side not saying a single word. This was how his conversations usually went in this line of business.
But what was his new job exactly?
The man took out his glasses and ran his hands through his hair, giving him an elegant look.
It was hard to associate him with the same man who was seamlessly arguing with an old man on the road.
His mission in this city was one he initially looked down on.
But after staying for a while, he quickly understood how difficult his target was.
Dorian D. Tian.
There was so much about the Tian estate and the Tain bit young around. Yet, his colleagues had faced a terrible nightmarish time there that no matter how he asked, it seemed to be a taboo topic.
All he knew was that some went to the hospital to have their little men checked. What's more, some also had deep internal injuries too.
He knew how strong Snake and the others were. So what sort of deadly dangers lay on that strange household?
.
Night Whisperer calmly walked into his hotel room and changed attire before meeting with his private team.
The clock was ticking, and time was running out.
What secret did the boy have to make the Ghus, Gias, and Hous friendly with him? And where was the secret hidden?
The boss had given him a mission to find all they could about Dorian's every move.
Yesterday, the boy pulled a fast one on them, leaving the city early in the morning. Of course, those watching him quickly followed through fast.
Too bad they underestimated how far Dorian was tracking and ran out of fuel. Just leaving the highway, entering a town or city, and stopping for that alone was enough time for Dorian to be long gone.
Dammit!
This was a chance to find out what secret bases or partners he was working with.
Stepping into the massive room his subordinates were gathered in, one of them quickly rushed to his side.
"Boss. We just got word from the inside girl Alice. She suspects something big will happen in 2 days involving all the Ghus, Gias, and Hous."
Night Whisperer narrowed his gaze. "Then we can't miss this opportunity. Tell everyone to prepare!!!"
No matter what, he was going to find every little secret the boy was hiding!
