My Iyashikei Game-Novel

Chapter 293: 293

Whenever he saw a system update about Big Sin, Han Fei would be assaulted by complicated feelings. It was a good thing that Big Sin had levelled up to Grade F but the higher its level, the heavier the stamp of death on its owner. In other words, the happier Big Sin, the closer Han Fei was to death. It would take a really special kind of person to keep Big Sin as a pet.

“The skin of a Pure Hatred? This skin feels just like a normal human skin, I didn’t expect it to belong to a Pure Hatred.” Han Fei had never seen a Pure Hatred before. “The appearance of this skin confirms that there is a Pure Hatred at Ziggurat and they are related to the Butterfly.” Studying the skin with the butterfly pattern, Han Fei was contemplating how to make use of the human skin to its maximum potential. Seeing how satisfied Han Fei was with the human skin, Big Sin circled around Han Fei happily. It tried to brush against Han Fei but that almost caused Han Fei to die from soul poisoning. Han Fei only kept Big Sin for 3 days but his poison resistance had improved to an impossible level.

“Well done.” Han Fei with darkening lips turned to encourage Big Sin. After that, he started to ponder another question. Both the sea of flowers and Eight-Crown had been eliminated, so why hadn’t the Grade F Mission been completed yet? The security company wasn’t a unique locale so the Grade F Mission shouldn’t be that difficult. Standing in the hole, Han Fei noticed that without the suppression of the human skin, the weak Animated Regrets inside the dead bodies started to awaken. The Butterfly had taken everything away from them, leaving them with only pain. Hearing the incoherent mumbling from the dead bodies, Han Fei’s heart weighed with sadness. He took out Rest in Peace. “If one day I fall into the hands of the Butterfly, I will become like you, unable to live and unable to die.”

There were things scarier than death in the cryptic world. For these spirits trapped here, death was the final present Han Fei could give them. “I’ll give you closure, hopefully now you can rest in peace.” Endless hands gripped the hilt and a warm blade materialized. The blade dissolved the pain and consoled despair. It gave the souls which had been punctured by the roots the final farewell. Most of the spirits dissipated, but a small part which managed to retain their humanity until the end joined the Rest in Peace.

Most butcher’s knives would dull after multiple uses but Rest in Peace was the complete opposite. Its blade would only get sharper and brighter, the presence causing fear among normal spirits. This kind of blade shouldn’t exist in the cryptic world and it was only usable by Han Fei. After helping all the spirits seek release, the mountain of dead collapsed. Each guard uniform represented a human life, Butterfly’s sin was deep and unforgivable. Crawling out from the deep hole, Han Fei turned to the last lingering spirit—Bai Sinian’s senior, the guard responsible to teach new guards. He had taken Bai Sinian’s spot to die. He didn’t choose to drink the blood but stopped beside the pool. The flower had sucked out all the memory and humanity from him, Bai Sinian’s senior couldn’t remember anything anymore. He only had basic instinct left in him.

“Let him go, don’t let him suffer anymore.” Han Fei stopped before Bai Sinian. The latter hugged his senior’s body and had a complicated expression. He wasn’t ready for all these. After a long time, Bai Sinian slowly placed his senior on the ground and he knelt quietly beside him.

“Your senior has helped many people, you are just one of them. But in the end, he chose to die for you, have you really considered why?” Holding Rest in Peace, Han Fei didn’t console Bai Sinian but told him the truth. “Perhaps your senior saw some kind of hope in you, he believed that you could bring hope and continue his legacy of saving people.”

“Me?” No one had told Bai Sinian things like that before.

“I won’t know you better than your senior so you can choose to ignore me but I hope you’ll try to believe in your senior’s judgement.” With that, Han Fei eased the warm blade into Bai Sinian’s senior’s chest but he met with resistance. Undoing the man’s uniform, Han Fei realized there was a thick attendance registry around the man’s chest. It contained all the dead’s names and pictures, as well as everything they had done. The security company’s boss wasn’t lying. The Ziggurat treated the locals at Yi Ming Street as prey. If the company didn’t send suitable vessels to Ziggurat at regular intervals, the people from Ziggurat would come out themselves to hunt and it would cause a higher fatality. In a way, they indeed had protected Yi Ming Street but they were far from being able to call themselves the street’s guardian spirits. The thick attendance registry was soaked in blood. It was light but the things it contained were heavy.

Han Fei had no idea where Bai Sinian’s senior got this thing, perhaps he just didn’t want these people to be forgotten.

“I believe this is for you.” Han Fei handed the registry to Bai Sinian. After accepting it, Bai Sinian placed it inside his uniform and kept it well. This cowardly ghost appeared to have come to a decision and the change had begun.

Rest in Peace pierced again and this time it met no resistance. Bai Sinian’s senior’s soul entered the blade and the blade shone brighter. There was now another person joining Han Fei. “Rest in Peace has approved of your senior, and your senior has approved of me.” Han Fei pulled back the blade and he received the system notification.

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve completed Grade F Hidden Mission—Yi Ming Street’s Guardian Spirit! Obtained 3 free skill points!

“Completion rate is more than 90 percent, obtained additional Grade F Title—Yi Ming Street’s Guardian Spirit!

“With this title, you’ve gained the qualification to open all the altars on Yi Ming Street! Friendliness level with all spirits at Yi Ming Street increases by 3, all the Animated Regrets and Lingering Spirits will be less hostile against you. Pure Hatreds are not affected.

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve reached level 12, obtained 1 free attribute point!”

After getting the notifications, Han Fei realized the goal of this Grade F Mission was not to kill Eight-Crown but to provide salvations to all the spirits in the hole and become the real guardian spirit that they approved of.
