Chapter 13

Penulis: Peachy
Eighth night. The first-floor main hall.

Chloe was already waiting for me, a huge backpack slung over her shoulders. She looked fully equipped.

"Ava!" she said with a sweet smile. "You're here."

I nodded. "Ready to go?"

"Of course!" she said, patting her pack. "I've got lights, ropes, and all kinds of protective gear."

We started down to the basement. The stairs were narrow, only wide enough for one person. Chloe went first, and I followed.

"By the way," she said as we walked, "the ghosts in the basement are a bit special. They're not as friendly as your 'roommates'."

"Oh?"

"They attack your mind with illusions," she said, glancing back at me. "They make you see your deepest fears."

"Sounds fun."

We soon reached the basement.

It was definitely different from upstairs. The air was thick with the smell of rot, and strange mold grew on the walls.

"This is it," Chloe said, pointing to a room at the far end. "The legendary secret room."

The moment we stepped inside, dozens of candles flicke

    The red light gradually faded.Ethan's figure was completely gone, leaving only a pool of blood on the floor.Chloe was tangled in the red chains, gravely wounded but still struggling."I… I won't die…" she snarled. "I created this game… I am the god here…"Just then, a massive vortex appeared in the center of the room.A silvery-white light poured out from it—a portal to the real world.But the vortex was unstable, flickering in and out as if it might disappear at any moment.【GAME ALERT: Portal energy is insufficient. A sacrifice of a precious memory is required as a power source.】"A precious memory?" I looked at my three family members.They were all injured, but they were still standing by my side.Pops spoke first. "I know what to do."He walked toward the portal, a gentle light in his eyes."My most precious memory…" he said slowly, "was the day I rescued a child from a fire for the first time.""That little girl hugged me and cried, calling me a hero.""That was the proudest mo

    "Even?" Chloe laughed, a crazed sound. "You think this is over?"She pulled a black crystal ball from her pocket and crushed it.Instantly, the entire mansion began to shake violently.Countless cracks split the walls, and a swarm of black shadows poured out.They were all the spirits she had enslaved."I'll tell you the truth!" Chloe shrieked. "This game was never random!""From the very beginning, this was a cage designed just for you!"She pointed at me, her eyes twisted with hate."I was jealous of your talent! Jealous of your beauty! But most of all, I was jealous of Ethan's love for you!""So I arranged the car crash!""I dragged both of your souls into this game so you would suffer for eternity!"Ethan stared at her in horror. "You're insane! Chloe, you're completely insane!""Insane?" She laughed, even more unhinged. "What's wrong with loving someone to the point of madness?""And now, you're going to die here with her!""That way, I can have everything that was yours!"Countle

    The seventh night.I was packing my bag, getting ready for tomorrow night's "expedition.""Are you really going?" Kael asked, sitting on the edge of the bed, his shadows churning anxiously."Yep," I said, folding a shirt. "If I don't go, how will I find out what game she wants to play?"Lily hugged my arm tightly. "I don't want Sister to go.""Me neither," Pops said, walking in from the doorway. "That woman stinks of malice.""That's why I have to go," I said, patting Lily's head. "If I don't deal with her, we'll never have any peace."The three ghosts exchanged a look."Wait," Kael suddenly stood up. "If you have to go, then let us give you something.""Give me what?"He walked over to me and placed his hand on the crack in his chest.The wound suddenly burst with a blinding light, as if it would tear his entire body apart.Kael let out a pained grunt but didn't stop."Kael! What are you doing?" I tried to stop him."Don't move," he said through gritted teeth. "This is the best protec

    On the fifth night, I lay in bed staring at the ceiling.Lily was on my left, Kael on my right. On the floor, Pops had started to snore softly.It was a strange feeling.Three years ago, I slept alone every single night. Ethan always said he needed his "personal space" and never spent the night.Now, I was surrounded by three "ghosts," and I had never felt safer."Sister," Lily suddenly turned over, her small hand grabbing my pajamas. "Can I stay with you forever?""Of course you can," I said, stroking her hair. "Forever and always.""What about me?" Kael's voice came from the darkness. "Can I stay by your side forever, too?"I turned my head. I couldn't see his face, but I could feel his nervousness."Silly," I said, reaching out to poke the crack in his chest. "You're my roommate. Of course we have to stay together."Kael's shadows trembled slightly, a sign that he was happy."Me too," Pops grumbled, rolling over on the floor. "Don't forget about me.""I won't," I laughed. "We're a f

    On the third night, there were only four players left.【GAME ALERT: Player Sarah has been eliminated.】I was brushing Lily's hair when I heard the news and just gave a small nod."Another one gone.""Aren't you scared?" Lily asked curiously. "Everyone else is dead.""Scared of what?" I continued to brush her hair. "We're doing great, aren't we?"Kael, standing by the window, suddenly spoke. "Someone is watching us."I followed his gaze.Down in the garden, a figure was hiding behind a tree, secretly looking up at our window.It was Ethan.He'd been standing there for three hours."He shows up every day," Pops snorted. "Stands out there like a stray dog begging for scraps.""Don't say that," I said, putting the brush down. "Dogs are way more loyal than him."Kael's shadows flared for a moment, clearly annoyed at the mention of Ethan."Want me to make him leave?""No need," I shook my head. "If he wants to watch, let him. It's not like he can see anything important."But Ethan's behavior
