Infinite Mask Game

After confirming the end of the dungeon, Wei Miao's perspective quickly climbed up, overlooking the town of Sabo.

The colors in front of her eyes flowed like water, turning day and night. She saw the town's appearance turned upside down, the buildings and streets were broken down into bricks and tiles, turned into ruins, and then rebuilt.

All the turbulence stabilized in just a dozen seconds. At this moment, the layout of the town was exactly the same as in the Soul Requiem Realm, but with many more traces of life.

[Because you cleared the level as a Soul Hunter, you will be shown the Soul Hunter-related ending. ]

Wei Miao thought: "Is this... a town hundreds of years ago?"

It was dusk, and the deep red sunset stretched for hundreds of miles.

It was dinner time, and the few residents of the town shuttled through the narrow streets. The linen clothes and simple decorations on their bodies were very different from the residents in the future.

The clock tower in the southwest corner broadcast the time, and the street vendors were busy packing up their goods to go home, and the sounds of chickens and dogs barking were occasionally heard.

On both sides of the square, the sound of devout prayers could be heard faintly from the Holy Cathedral of Virginia.

Opposite was the mayor's residence, which was far less magnificent than the future town hall. It was just an ordinary small western-style building.

At this moment, a middle-aged man just walked out of the mayor's residence, closed the door, and walked down the steps.

He was wearing an exquisite red robe and a black wide-brimmed hat, looking mature and steady.

There was no doubt that he was the mayor.

Wei Miao's perspective began to follow him automatically.

He walked on the street, smiling and greeting every resident he knew.

Until he passed by a woman in red wearing a hood.

The mayor caught a glimpse of her face when she tilted her head. Her facial features were deep and regular, her skin was like snow, and she had green eyes that were completely different from the locals. She was elegant and noble, and her beauty was incomparable.

He stopped and looked back at the woman walking away.

Wei Miao recognized her at a glance: "White-skinned corpse demon."

The charm of the corpse demon was thrilling, and the mayor walked back home in a daze.

A familiar male voice sounded in her ears, with a sense of reminiscence in his tone: "My name is Herbert Pedder. My family is quite famous in the town of Sabo. With the help of my family's influence, I successfully became the mayor."

"I met her during my usual patrol in the evening. I fell in love at first sight. The delicate floral fragrance on her body bewitched me. At that time, I didn't know that this was the beginning of the disaster."

Day and night rotated, and every day, Herbert ran into her at a similar time and place.

One day, he couldn't help but talk to her.

She said: "My name is Bernadette. My hometown was robbed by mountain bandits and my family was destroyed. I wandered here from afar and wanted to stay in the town for a few days."

Herbert naturally invited her to stay at his home.

"During the few days of getting along, she behaved like a virtuous wife, considerate and gentle."

The perspective was pulled into the house.

In the dead of night, Herbert was awakened by a scream. When he rushed to Bernadette's room, he saw her pitiful appearance.

Needless to say, the next black screen, when Herbert woke up the next day, the woman had disappeared.

Herbert felt lost.

In contrast, the soul hunter's tone was calm: "After that, I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find her again. Due to my identity, I buried this matter in my heart. Only occasionally at night, I realized that I still missed that moment."

Day and night flow, time flies. After many sunrises and sunsets, the time of the story finally slowed down.

The perspective is still locked in Herbert's home.

In the middle of the night, a woman wrapped in a black robe knocked on Herbert's door and left an ugly baby.

"This is your child." The green version of Bernadette showed a charming smile, but the words in her mouth made Herbert feel like being struck by lightning.

He stood in front of the door, holding the little corpse ghost in his arms, watching the corpse demon leave without saying a word.

"I recognized the so-called child in my arms as a ghoul. So, I immediately realized Bernadette's identity - a ghoul. She deceived me for unknown purposes."

The soul hunter's voice fluctuated slightly: "I should have been angry and sad, throwing away the ghoul, and then taking this embarrassment to the grave... But I kept it secretly and raised it up."

In the past, Herbert's expression was very wonderful. After closing the door, he stared at the ghoul and thought for a long time before struggling to make a decision.

He raised the ghoul in the basement.

Many fragments flashed before Wei Miao's eyes.

The ghoul grew up in the dark basement, accompanied by sundries and candlelight. It played with a broken ball or fiddled with withered petals to pass the time.

The error-free version is reading! The first release of this novel.

Herbert taught it human language and knowledge, and its learning speed was no less than that of an ordinary human child.

But as it grew up, its appearance became more and more ugly.

It gradually understood its situation. It would ask Herbert for the sunshine outside and feel pain because of loneliness.

The upbringing, which was like imprisonment, lasted for many years.

Soul Hunter: "Little Bell is its name. I taught it everything about human society, but it is not a human after all."

"The corpse ghost is one of the lowest alien species. It should have been a corpse demon, but it degenerated into a corpse ghost because it was contaminated with human blood, but it has normal intelligence that is superior to that of corpse ghosts."

"It is an alien and cannot integrate into any group. No matter it is a corpse demon, a corpse ghost or a human, it will not accept it."

"But it is my descendant, and this is an unchangeable fact. I will not abandon it, and the family will not abandon any of its descendants. But this means that it has become my heaviest burden. I must keep the secret for a long time, protect it, and protect myself."

"I can't stand this oppressive life more and more. Every time I see little Bell, I will think of the foolish mistakes I made. Little Bell can't stand the basement for a lifetime. It tried to escape many times, but fortunately I stopped it."

"I can't carry such a heavy secret and live alone for a lifetime. I can't abandon little Bell, so I can only change it. I want to transform it into a 'human', so that it can live openly and honestly, so that I have a real descendant."

The camera moves from the basement to the study of the house.

Beside the oil lamp, Herbert is studying an old book carefully. The sack at his feet contains some small birds, fluttering up and down.

Herbert picked up the knife at hand and untied the sack.

A crow poked its head out, and was captured and killed as soon as it flapped its wings.

Dark red blood flowed into three silver disks, and a red candle stood in the middle of the disks.

The three silver disks were placed in a triangle, Herbert lit the candles, knelt in the middle of the triangle, and chanted vague prayers.

"I searched through the taboo books in my home and found a simple sacrificial array pointing to the Silent Death. I tried to sacrifice and pray to Him, and He responded to my request."

"But He asked for a corresponding price."

I have been very busy recently, and the updates are unstable.
