Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 74 A Guard Dog For A Sister

Lilly bowed her head and drew on the dirt floor with a stick. “To somewhere far away where I won’t be able to come back.”

“…” To Josh, that sounded like Lilly was going to die if she didn’t fill the jar.He said nothing for a while until he could gather himself. “Are there more ghosts like Ms. Sumo Wrestler…?”

The faster they were caught, the better it would be for her.

He wasn’t going to watch her die simply because she failed to fill the jar of souls. He was only doing this because…All he did was make a calculation. He had to verify the results to see if he got it right.

That was all there was to it.

Pablo suddenly got closer to Josh to ask quietly, “Say, how can you see me?”

That jolted Josh who was just about to respond when the white-robed man faded away before disappearing.

That had him looking around in confusion. “Lilly, is your Master gone?”

Lilly looked beside him. “No, he’s right beside you!”

Josh suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck. It felt as if someone’s hand was on him which had all the hairs on his body bristling.

He fought the urge to look back!

Why does it feel a hundred times scarier when I don’t see it?!

Lilly suddenly cut in. “Josh, my master is asking if you’ve ever seen a ghost before.”

He stiffened. “No.”

Pablo rubbed his chin and frowned.

“Well, that’s a bit odd. How can he see sometimes but not others? Strange!”

In his hundreds of years as a spirit, he had never seen anyone like Josh unless they received external interference. Examples of that ranged from applying a dog’s tears onto their eyelids or having someone forcefully open their third eye temporarily.

Josh, however, was suddenly able to see.

One either had the eyes to see or didn’t…

“How is this possible?” Pablo flipped through his booklet.

Do not panic when in doubt. Let me see if I can find an answer here.

Noise suddenly began to fill the clearing.
