Veronica stood on the edge of the crack.

She looked down.

The underworld is at her feet.

"What are you looking at?" the old man's voice sounded in her ears.

Veronica turned her head and looked at the old man who was also standing on the edge of the underworld.

The ancestor who imprisoned her for the first half of her life and destroyed the lives of countless female members of the Gawain family - Steward Galanti.

Galanti opened her mouth with emotion:

"You have grown..."

Veronica interrupted him with a cold voice:

"You are not real, you are not a revenant, you are just a loser, you don't even exist anywhere except in my memories."

After saying that, Veronica turned her head.

She could no longer see Galanti.

The basement door was pushed open again.

The first thing she saw was a pair of short boots and the white and tender skin between the boots and trousers.

It's Nelly.

Nelly said:

"I need your help."

On the ground, there are two cups of Inlans black tea on the round table.

Veronica is still digesting Nelly’s words:

"You mean that a certain disease in your body infected Hevin, and by chance, this phenomenon gave birth to a powerful entity with self-awareness?"

Nelly said:

"It's not quite accurate. I don't think it's self-awareness. It should be some unknown little emotions of Hewen. Of course, it's much worse than what I expressed. That's what he calls himself.

“However, during our communication, he acted very restrained, so in fact, I only felt a little weird, but I didn’t feel too bad.

"Of course, it could be that Hevin is just too nice, so it wouldn't be too bad to gather all his bad qualities together, but I have to think that's not the case, because I think he also knows the meaning of the words he uses."

Veronica said:

"I still don't believe it. How could Hevin be infected by you? It's not that I don't understand you. Maybe you don't know that in my opinion Hevin is a very powerful existence."

Nelly said:

"Maybe it's not that Hewen is weak, but that this symptom is too dangerous, but I still want to thank you for believing in me."

Veronica held her forehead and tried to restrain the influx of certain thoughts:

"No, don't talk about me and this symptom. Let's get back to the topic. When did your phenomenon start?"

Nelly said:

"It happened some time before I came here, after I attended a funeral, I could see visions in the form of the deceased."

Marlene stood beside Nelly waving her hands:

"Illusion? We are a vital part of you, how can you use illusions to describe us? You can just say that we are the ghosts that haunt you."

Nelly ignored her hallucination and continued:

"At first I thought they would just whisper things about me, but I never imagined that this situation would spread. How fast would it spread? How much impact would it have on people?

"

Veronica added:

"And whether people who are re-infected can spread this phenomenon, or only you can spread it, but no matter what, we need to isolate you. After we finish the discussion, I will talk about this with Ha La,

We should not let this phenomenon spread again, and I will keep my distance from her."

Nellie pointed to Veronica:

"you also?"

Veronica said:

"No, I said, don't discuss me for now, we have to admit that there is this risk, right? Even if I am not infected, I should keep my distance from other people."

Nellie could notice that Veronica said the word "even".

Although she didn't understand the purpose of Veronica's abnormal behavior, Nelly still chose to comply.

Veronica noticed that Nero was suddenly looking behind her for a moment:

"What are you looking at?"

Nelly said:

"Ah, I was actually thinking that you could leave the basement. I always thought that you had to be there to ensure that Hevin could come back."

Veronica said:

"No, as long as I don't leave this house for too long, I just don't think it's necessary to come up. I don't really like lively places."

Nelly wanted to say that a place with only two or three people couldn't be considered lively at all.

But she just asked:

"Then you won't be lonely down there alone?"

Veronica said:

"I'm not alone, I have many friends you can't see."

Nelly narrowed her eyes.

Veronica said:

"No, it's not like you. I can simply communicate with the dead. Wait a minute."

Veronica shouted towards the empty space beside her:

"Eileen."

A vague female figure appeared in front of Nelly.

Veronica said:

"If I wanted to, she could look exactly like a real person. It's just that she's a little shy and Erin isn't used to seeing people, especially during the day."

Nelly looked at the gradually fading figure and sighed:

"Oh, a little bit...

"Amazing, that's all I can say."

Veronica said:

"Let's get back to the topic. You should know that the most serious thing about this matter is not whether Ha La is infected or not, nor is Hevin or anyone else."

Nelly said a name:
