Records of the Weakest Emperor

Chapter 65: Not Ghosts



Chapter 65: Not Ghosts

Any god among the Seven Gods And Goddesses, no matter how weak that god was when compared to the others were still infinitely stronger than any mortals in the material world.

Calvin had reached a peak that no mortal had ever reached and he had understood some complexities in life and the universe, yet he also realized at that moment that...

He was still weaker than the Seven Gods and Goddesses.

They were in a whole new realm when compared to him that had reached the realm of Apex Predators.

The Seven Gods and Goddesses were incredibly powerful to the extent that any mention of their name and title could be heard by them. When Dandelion saw the words that Calvin wrote in the notebook. He felt his soul leave his body.

"What the fuck did you just write?! Why did you do something like that? Don't you know that a simple mention of..."

"I know, I know... Calm down, and don't panic. I know that the gods and goddesses up above can sometimes smite mortals that dare defile their name, but do you really think that 'She' will bother about someone like me? Just relax, all right? On the contrary, I believe that what I did should be beneficial instead."

"Beneficial?! You just offended a goddess, man! A goddess! Don't you know about the phrase, one can irritate a drunk and a sleepless man, but never a woman?!"

"Oh, you're surprisingly literate?"

"Are you mocking me?"

Calvin shook his head.

He pointed at the ancient notebook and chuckled, "If you're that worried, then come here and look at this."

"What?"

Dandelion was irritated.

He had thought that Calvin was a cautious man, but to think that he would be this careless!

But the logic of the world that he knew was overturned when he saw the heart symbol written beside the "Verified".

"What? What is this heart symbol?"

"What do you think? The font is different. The style is also different, as well as the depth of the strokes. Who do you think wrote this heart symbol?" Calvin revealed a small smile.

"C-C-Could it be that it's 'Her'?!"

"Yes, that's right..." Calvin boisterously laughed, "What do you think of this secret? Are you satisfied? I hope this secret can satisfy you in the next few months at least..."

"Yeah... Yeah... I am satisfied... Wow! This is such a huge scoop. To think that..." Dandelion was about to say the name of the Goddess but he ultimately refrained. Even though he could be considered as a powerful ancient artifact spirit, he wasn't so arrogant to think that he could endure the anger of a Goddess.

"But man, do you really want to die that much? It's a good thing that 'She' gave us a leeway, or else..." Dandelion revealed a horrified look on his face.

"It's all right, really..." Calvin chuckled once more.

Before Dandelion could even speak, Calvin pushed open the bathroom stall and he found that he was in the same bathroom as Hugo.

Poor Hugo was still tied up.

Calvin removed his restraints and checked the time.

A mere thirty minutes had passed since Calvin entered that school.

"You can actually distort time and space?"

"Yeah... What about it? Shocked, yet? I guess even the Apex Predator of the previous timeline can still be surprised by something."

"Yeah... I'm surprised. To think that a mere notebook like you could manipulate such a complicated concept." Calvin slightly smiled.

"Hmmph!" Dandelion snorted.

The two talked a bit more telepathically, but Hugo suddenly woke up.

When he opened his eyes, the first scene that he saw was Calvin staring at him with a smile.

"Am I in a dream? Where am I?" Hugo raised his upper body off the cold floor, "Calvin? Why am I here? Where are the others?" Hugo swept his gaze across the room and realized that he was in a bathroom stall. Graffiti and some words written in blood could be seen on the bathroom walls.

His face immediately went pale as he cried out, "No! I'm in this place... Why am I here? Ah... There are ghosts here, Calvin! There are ghosts! We must run out of here as fast as possible and never return!" Hugo shot up from where he was and made a mad dash towards the exit before he was stopped by Calvin.

Calvin held the hem of his sleeves and said, "Calm down. We can't get out of this place without gathering the others..."

"Besides, we still need to find Arthur Chase and get the Security Room Access Keycard from him!"

Calvin's words reverberated in Hugo's mind. He was suddenly reminded of the main objectives that they had before they came here. But just what was the reason why he walked away from the others? Hugo could vaguely remember that it was related to ghosts, his greatest bane of all time, but he couldn't remember how he arrived in this bathroom stall.

Calvin could clearly see Hugo's confusion and he couldn't help but comment, "I'm the one that dragged you here. I can feel that there's something scary outside. But I don't think that they are ghosts."

"What? They aren't ghosts?" Hugo asked in confusion.

"Yeah... Did you forget where we are right now? We're in a mental institution! We're in Mount Spirit Sword Asylum! How could there be any ghosts in a place like this? In other words, what lured you away from the others should be the patients of this hospital and mental institution! They purposely acted like ghosts to scare you!"

"What?!"

Thankfully, Hugo was a simple-minded man.

Added onto the fact that he really didn't want to think that he was facing ghosts...

He instantly believed Calvin's words as his eyes reddened in anger.

He felt humiliated.

His desire for revenge burned unceasingly.

"Those insane bastards... How dare they play me like this?!"

Hugo stood up and he seemed to have transformed into a new man.

Calvin lightly chuckled and telepathically asked, [Are you sure that you can prevent those demons from going into their tangible form?]

[Yeah, why are you doubting my abilities?]

[Well... I'm just being cautious. As far as I can remember you didn't have that ability earlier.]

Dandelion seemed to be incensed, [It's because I'm manipulating the stability of that world! I may be able to multi-task, but there's a limit on how much work I am able to do at the same time, all right?]

[Okay, I believe you. There's not much that I can do anyways other than to believe you...]

[...]

Calvin was still doubtful but doubting was useless in this case.

He just had to believe in Dandelion's abilities.

As long as those demons were in their tangible form, Hugo shouldn't be afraid of them anymore and he'd be able to easily crush their skulls in his large palms.

"Are you okay now? Shall we go out?"

"Yeah... I'm okay now... How dare they deceive me... I won't forgive them!"

It's been a long time since Hugo became this angry.

He cracked his knuckles and even his neck, he was raring to fight.

Calvin looked at him with a smile.

Leading the way, Calvin walked out of the bathroom and arrived at the hospital corridors.
