The Spirit Hunter System
Guess

Uncomfortable, Kevin is transferred to his parents' room.

The couple then asked their maid to clean Kevin's room. Tidy up what can be tidied up and throw away the rest.

Sitting in the living room while waiting for Kevin to wake up, Adam looked calm. Moments later, Kevin's father came and saluted.

"Sorry we didn't trust you at first and were being disrespectful, Mr. Owl. Again, my name is Thomas, Kevin's father."

"It's not a problem at all."

Adam shook his head lightly, not bothering about such trifles at all. A normal parent would be angry when their child's life is in danger but is instead thought to be deceiving or something.

"Isn't what you used earlier .. a talisman, Mr Owl?"

"Do you also know the amulet, Mr Thomas?"

"Although like this, I still have information about your whereabouts, Honorable Cultivators."

"So so ..." Adam nodded.

"I'm a little confused, Mr. Owl."

"What's wrong?"

"Why would an esteemed Cultivator like you join such a newly formed Department of Mysteries?"

"Everyone has his own reasons ..."

"Also ..." Thomas was doubtful.

"Please just say it."

"I heard that such protective talismans cost up to 500,000 alliance dollars. You can rest easy .. I will definitely replace it."

"Actually talismans are indeed precious, but not that high. The talisman itself had always been a hold for Cultivators to ensure safety.

The price of the talisman alone might be 150,000-250,000 depending on the level. The reason why it can be so expensive is because of its rarity.

In the world of Cultivators, it was a must-carry item to ensure safety. So rather than pills, talismans were more needed by Cultivators. So what circulates in the normal world is very little, it is also with poor quality and minimal.

While the problem of replacing, you do not need to think about it. It's my job, and I also need to take care of my own safety. You don't have to replace it."

"But ..."

"This case is not finished either. So, let's just talk about it after everything's done."

Sighing deeply, Thomas nodded.

"Then your wish .. I can only obey. Did you really not drink that tea, Mr Owl? Or do you want something else?"

"There's absolutely no need."

Adam had no intention of removing his mask while on a mission outside. But because he sometimes also had to eat and drink, the young man had thought of making a half-face mask.

Sometime talking to Thomas, the maid arrives and tells them both that Kevin is awake. Adam and Thomas nodded at each other before going to see the boy.

Inside the master bedroom, a pale Kevin figure was leaning against the bed. Seeing the worried look on the face of the wife who was accompanying her son, Thomas immediately approached them.

"Is something wrong?" asked Thomas with a worried tone.

"No. Kevin said he felt very good. It's just, he's a little limp."

"Don't worry me like that."

Not caring about the appearance of the family, Adam instead approached Kevin.

"Do you feel anxious, Kevin?"

"Ens. I feel better, Uncle." The boy nodded.

"Good." Adam nodded lightly. "Then ... May I ask you something?"

"En." Again the boy nodded.

"What did you do before your hands became like this, Kevin? Did anyone give you anything to eat or something?"

"No." The boy shook his head.

"Why did you become like that?"

"..."

Seeing the boy hesitating, Adam glanced around then said sincerely.

"Can you leave us both?"

Kevin's mother looked doubtful, but Thomas held her hand while shaking lightly. He told the woman not to worry too much.

"Then we go" said Thomas.

After the others left, Adam stared at Kevin.

"Is that a secret not to be said?"

Listening to Adam's words, Kevin was stunned for a moment. He shook his head lightly before nodding, looking puzzled.

"En." Kevin nodded.

"Didn't you want to say it? Otherwise, there's no need for you to force." Adam looked soft.

"I want to tell Uncle."

"Why?" adam asked doubtfully.

"Because I believe Uncle can beat 'him'. Yes ... Uncle could've beaten him."

"Is there a deal?"

"En." Kevin nodded. "Say, anyone who hears us talking about it should join the game. 'He' will come over and play."

"Who's 'him'? Is it the woman whose voice you hear every night?"

"En."

"So he made you like this?"

"En."

"Why?"

"Because it's the game."

"What game?" ask Adam.

"guessing. We're gonna play guessing with 'her'."

"Wait .. us?" adam asked with a surprised expression.

"Yes. Me and my friends go to school."

"How's the guessing game going?"

"Take three, answer three times.

We were told to ask him. If 'She' couldn't answer, 'She' would give us what we wanted. Sweets, money, and a lot of things.

Even a little miracle. As long as we can give 'He' three difficult questions so it can't be answered, we win. We got three requests."

"What if he can answer one of them?" ask Adam.

"That means we have to go to the next round."

"Next brother?"

"Ens. In the next round, 'He' will ask us. If we answer just one question, we win."

"Then if you can't answer the question?"

"If one statement, he gets nothing. But if we can't answer the question, according to the rules .. we have to grant one wish."

"Then ... What happened?"

"We all managed to confuse 'She' in the first two questions, but the last question ... 'He' can answer all our questions.

At the time 'He' gave a simple question, somehow we all couldn't answer the question. So we have to grant one of his requests."

"From the beginning .. Why do you want to do that?"

"Because 'She' is stupid." Kevin tilted his head.

"We made a lot of miracles from finding money after school, teachers being absent due to illness, winning inter-school football games in the surrounding area.

We want more ..."

And finally deceived.

Think Adam. Of course, he would not believe such an evil spirit would only grant the requests of the children without the slightest plan.

He relented twice, only to lure the children to follow the third question that led them to the next round. In the end, they will not be able to answer the question of the deceiver.

Looking at Kevin who did not feel fooled at all, but instead looked like he was feeling less fortunate to make Adam shake his head

Yes ... They are really children.

Adam then asked Kevin with a curious expression under his mask.

"Then, what did he ask for?"

"He asked ..."

Hearing Kevin's words, Adam's eyes narrowed. His expression turned even colder. At that time he also knew .. His opponent was not someone, but an evil spirit that liked to deceive children.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, Adam calmed down.

Trying to be normal, Adam said in a gentle tone.

"Thank you, Kevin."
