My Iyashikei Game Chapter 372

372 Technically Not My Fault

The blood blotted most of the screen, only a man's voice could be heard. The man was a soul made into being by the Soul Chaser but it was perfectly comfortable at the Ziggurat. Through small clues, he managed to guess his own identity and status in a short amount of time. He made use of the connection between the room owner and his host to easily win the upper hand. To be frank, the 'soul' would require sharp observational skill as well as a very crazy and smart mind to accomplish this.

“Since I can assume your family's consciousness then I should be able to do the same to you. Why don't you come and eat me? Or perhaps let me control his body to crawl into your stomach, then you'll be together forever and I won't need to worry about my own safety anymore.” The maddened voice was similar to Han Fei. Han Fei outside the screen stared at the phone, he had a feeling his Evil Soul was going to rock Ziggurat tonight.

The blood slowly beaded together and slid down the screen. Han Fei could barely see what was inside Room 4204. The whole room was covered in blood. The walls of the rooms constricted and expanded like a heart. In the middle of the room stood a monster about 3 metres tall. Its head was almost touching the ceiling. Its arms laid weakly by its side, there were tattoos of chains on them.

The monster's spine was made up of protruding skulls. The monster's wrinkled face stared at his own stomach. The stomach had been slashed open. There was no blood but instead plenty of hair. The hair was knotted together to form knots of resentment. The thing that caught Han Fei's attention though was, he saw a young man about his size standing in front of the monster's stomach and he was using an impossible speed to undo the knots.

The monster who had killed so many people could have wiped out the young man easily but he didn't do that. Eventually all the knots were unmade and the young man crawled into the monster's stomach.

At the same time, the monster's muddled eyes turned red and a new skull grew on his spine. Unlike the other weathered faces, this face was extremely young and devilish.

“You have such a cool power, why didn't you use like? You still mind the rules at Ziggurat? What rules are there at this dark and despairing place? If you're strong enough, you make the rules.” The monster's body expanded, yin energy filled up his guts. As the knots on the stomach were undone, the seals on the monster were lifted as well. Room 4204 pounded like a living heart. Just as the walls were about to crack, the large monster squeezed through the front door and stormed into the corridor.

“What kind of monster is that?” Han Fei watched the senior monster walk away through the screen. When the monster left the room, the young man turned to glance at the spot where the phone lay like he knew all along someone was watching him. As the footsteps disappeared, Room 4204 slowly returned to normal. Several minutes later, all the blood receded. They gathered in the middle of the room and became a blood red shadow. This shadow was the true owner of Room 4204, it was forced to fake death earlier to escape actual death.

“4204? Are you alright?” Han Fei had many things he wanted to ask. The bloody shadow was still recovering from the intrusion. He stood before the camera and studied Han Fei. In the end, he seemed to sense something from Han Fei and ended the video call.

“There is a rotten, bleeding heart residing in Room 4204. No one knows where he comes from and people rarely interact with him. But why was the senior monster from Room 4234 rampaging around Room 4204 earlier?” The male student was confused.

Han Fei was already in battle mode. He fired off a series of messages in the chat group. He warned everyone to stay in their room and be prepared for the worst. The message was received with suspicion, after all, Han Fei was new to the job. In fact, even the male student didn't quite get it. “The senior monster from Room 4234 is the earliest tenant at Ziggurat, he is extremely powerful but there is no need for such a warning, right?”

Other tenants also thought Han Fei was overreacting. No matter how powerful the senior monster was, he wouldn't dare to openly violate the rules of Ziggurat and charge into another tenant's room. Han Fei was quite desperate and angry seeing how innocent these 'people' were.

If it was just the senior monster, then indeed there was nothing to worry about, there were still many tenants who were more terrifying than him at Ziggurat, like the headless door guardian, the figurines in Zhuang Ren's family's home. But everyone missed an important detail. The senior monster was literally not himself at the moment. It was Han Fei's Evil Soul who was controlling him.

Han Fei at level 13 didn't have any offensive ability but he had already cleared Yi Ming Private Academy, ruined the meat packing plant, burnt down the security company, collapsed the Cattle Alley and now he was inside a Grade E Hidden Map. The senior monster looked as powerful as the female livestreamer. In other words, Han Fei's Evil Soul was now in control of a Large Lingering Spirit!

Just the thought of it feared Han Fei. What would a completely evil version of himself do after he acquired the power and ability of a Large Lingering Spirit?

One of the tenants said in the chat group that the senior monster wouldn't violate the manager's rules but for Han Fei, rules were made to be broken. These tenants should be thankful if the senior monster only broke into their rooms, Han Fei worried that there would be a bloodbath instead.

For a splitting moment, Han Fei believed this was the plan of the Butterfly all along. It made Han Fei's Evil Soul cleansed all the tenants. That way he would walk the path of the tester and slowly lose himself to become a bloody butcher.

“Don't be so worried, do you really think he'll destroy this whole building?” The male student consoled Han Fei. “Tonight is the Night of Resurrection where there is a paper doll procession and every family is conducting the soul-summoning ritual. The manager will intervene if the senior monster steps out of line.”

“If I were you, I wouldn't count on Ziggurat's Manager, it is the kind of evil that you can't even begin to fathom.” Han Fei didn't know how to convince the boy. He frowned in thought. Then he opened his menu and started to recite from his professional resume. “Everything I said is true, I've done many jobs before but because of the presence of that Evil Soul, everything is ruined.”

“Ruined?”

“Not in the sense that you might understand it.” Han Fei elaborated on his professional history, when he was a teacher, he killed the discipline teacher; when he went to interview at a convenience store, the interviewer died after half an hour; after he switched a career path, all of his colleagues died; he joined the security company and incidentally attracted the Singer, the company was now covered in curse, and not even one employee remained.

The male student was shocked after he heard Han Fei's resume. He stared at the Ziggurat guard uniform Han Fei was wearing and his pale face started to twitch.
