My Iyashikei Game C.965: Love

“Han Fei? What is he trying to do?!” The players knew that Han Fei had gone to explore the village and knew that he was very strong, but none of them expected him to come back with the whole village of ghosts. The mission was to exorcise ghosts, but Han Fei somehow became the boss of ghosts.

“Move.” Han Fei stopped before the villa. “Be it for Yao Qiang or Yao Yuan, this villa is a cage, trapping their lives and souls here. We need to destroy this place to start the ritual.”

The bells around the corners of the villa rang non-stop. The mirror on the front door cracked. Yin energy approached the villa from all sides.

Ghost children carried rubber balls and laughed as if they were talking about some games. They ran into the garden and called Yao Yuan’s name, asking him to join them.

The neighbor’s cats jumped on the garden walls. The white cat in the dead man’s clothes looked up at the third floor with worry.

A wet sister walked out of the pond. Her black hair was stuck to her body. She was carrying a cake soaked rotten in the water.

The elders shuffled to the door. They were weak, but they scolded Yao Qiang as they knocked on the door.

More ghosts appeared. Everyone called upon Yao Yuan, wishing to take him away from this house.

If one didn’t know the truth, this scene would be very scary. The ghosts were trying to take the kid away.

Yao Yuan, who was trapped on the third floor, heard the voices. His body shook harder. Her eyes rolled upwards. As the voices called for him, Yao Yuan started to answer. He struggled to shake his father loose. He rammed his head against the wall. He didn’t stop even if his head was bleeding. This was a typical possession scene. Yao Qiang screamed for help. The players hesitated.

Han Fei was like the antagonist in the horror film, and all the ghosts were his minions; However, Han Fei was also the vice president of Happiness Neighborhood. He wouldn’t betray the players. Time ticked by. The nightmare cracked. With Han Fei leading the way, the ghosts tried to enter the old villa. The objects in the house cracked with the accumulation of Yin energy, but the strongest hatred didn’t come from outside the house.

“Stop them! These are all ghosts! Can’t you see? They want to take away my son and destroy my son!” Yao Qiang shouted.

Shadow spread in the building. Footsteps became more consistent. The ghosts walked on the stairs, and Yao Yuan’s reaction became strongest. Before midnight arrived, Yao Yuan finally struggled loose from his father. He wanted to escape from this home and his father!

The small room and the endless studying were Yao Yuan’s everything. He ran as fast as he could as the ghosts called for him. However, as his hand touched the door on the third floor, the clock chimed as midnight had arrived. At that moment, Yao Yuan appeared to lose control of his body. His bones cracked, and thin threads pierced through him. He turned from a human into a puppet!

“Why are you leaving? The person who loves you the most is me! Only I treat you with sincerity! Why would you run away from me to the ghosts?” Horrifying voices came from Yao Qiang’s lips. His gaze darkened. His normal body started to change. With each of his steps, a black, sticky substance fell from his body. “Am I harming you by asking you to study? I don’t want you to follow my path. I help you block all the distractions. Am I not a good father? Why can’t you understand me? This is for your own good!”

A black trail followed Yao Qiang. Black patterns grew on his skin. The patterns originated from the thing inside his pocket. All the ugliness came from his pocket. His mutated love for his son was amplified by the thing. “Don’t leave! Only I really love you in this world!”

Yao Qiang reached forward. He was several meters away from Yao Yuan, but whenever he spoke, the threads would pull Yao Yuan closer to him. Under Yao Qiang’s ‘education’, Yao Yuan became a puppet. He didn’t know how to think for himself. His consciousness was silenced by Yao Qiang in the name of love!

Han Fei and the ghosts kicked down the door.

“Yao Qiang, stop dreaming. Even now, you want to lie to your son?” Han Fei resisted the strong presence of Yao Qiang and shouted, “Why is your son cursed? Why did he go crazy? Do you really not know the reason?”

Han Fei looked at Yao Qiang’s pocket. The source of the nightmare came from Yao Qiang’s phone!

“The children who played outside your house, your neighbor, the novels in the bookstores, the kind elders inside the village, they are not the main reason why Yao Yuan is affected! You’re the reason why Yao Yuan is in such pain!”

The door of the bedroom on the second floor opened. A middle-aged woman with a dull face was brought out by Shi Hwa. She was like a puppet who only knew how to repeat the same sentence. The scariest thing was, once the woman left her room, rigor mortis started to set in. It was as if the woman had already died in Yao Yuan’s eyes.

“You’re spouting nonsense! Yao Yuan, don’t listen to him!” Yao Qiang was anxious. “I’m your family! I gave birth to you, so you have to listen to me!”

“Is that why you can take over his life?” Han Fei entered the house. There was still one question that boggled him. What was evil in Yao Yuan’s eyes?

For Yao Qiang, evil was the thing that would affect Yao Yuan’s studies; evil was the kid who found out his secret. If this was his nightmare, then one only had to deal with all the ghosts in the village; but if this was Yao Yuan’s nightmare, what was his evil? Yao Qiang? His mother? Or something else completely?

Han Fei didn’t dare to get too close without Rest in Peace. He stared at Yao Qiang’s pocket and used Cursed Words to help Yao Yuan find himself again.

The other ghosts also tried to summon Yao Yuan. The kid stood between Han Fei and Yao Qiang. His body was pierced by endless blood threads. At that moment, someone’s appearance immediately changed the situation.

Yao Yuan’s mother came to the third floor. She looked extremely scary. However, she smiled after she saw Yao Yuan. She appeared more like a child than Yao Yuan.

“Get out! Get out now!” Yao Qiang shouted at his wife. Shi Hwa walked to the dead woman and supported her. “I found some pictures and clues in the second-floor bedroom. Their family met a car accident when Yao Yuan was still very young. Yao Yuan’s mother hurt her head and went into a coma. When she woke up, she was crazy.” Shi Hwa handed the pictures to Han Fei. “At first, Yao Qiang wasn’t this obsessed. However, when the third party appeared, Yao Qiang planned to abandon Yao Yuan’s mother. I suspect Yao Yuan saw Yao Qiang’s phone and decided to give up on his studies after knowing Yao Qiang was about to abandon his mother.”

“Your guess is too kind.” Han Fei glanced at the picture and looked at Yao Yuan’s mother. “Yao Qiang probably worked together with others to kill Yao Yuan’s mother. Something was discovered by Yao Yuan, and it triggered his madness.”

The discussion between the players entered Yao Qiang and Yao Yuan’s ears. They reacted differently. Yao Yuan started to struggle again. His eyes teared up. Yao Qiang’s face started to twist. The black patterns from his pocket crawled all over his skin.

“I didn’t kill anyone! She was crazy! She fell from the third floor on her own!” Yao Qiang got crazy. He pulled out a rusted knife that he had hidden among the talismans. “All of you are ghosts too! Yes!”

His shirt burst open. The patterns covered his body. The vibrating phone from his pocket fell out. A female voice floated out. The general meaning was that she wouldn’t be with Yao Qiang until he lightened the ‘burden’ he had. She didn’t want to take care of a small deadweight and a madwoman.

Hearing the woman’s voice, Yao Yuan went fully insane. He started to bleed. Some kind of power tried to tear him apart. He wanted to escape, but in this nightmare, his world was limited to his room.

“Shut up! Shut up!” Fear gathered on Yao Qiang. All the black stuff turned him into a Pure Hatred! The players didn’t kill the ghosts in the village, so Yao Qiang only absorbed half of the power in the nightmare. Even so, he was tough to deal with. “Why are all of you against me? I’m doing this for you! I’m doing this for everyone! Why are you forcing me?” Yao Qiang was mad. He swung the blade at Han Fei.

Han Fei stood in front of all the players. If he moved, the players behind him would be injured. Shi Hwa and Yao Yuan’s mother would be killed.

“The person forcing you is not others but yourself.” Han Fei stood there, and the blood tattoo glowed. He shouted. “Big Sin!” A giant roar echoed. Four appendages reached out from behind Han Fei. The roof was lifted off. Big Sin rammed into Yao Qiang. The house trembled. Yao Qiang lost his humanity, but he still couldn’t take down Big Sin.

The phone was cracked. A small black flame glowed in Yao Qiang’s heart. If he could use the nightmare as fuel, then he could become a Pure Hatred. Unfortunately, other than him, all the ghosts sided with Han Fei. They even helped Han Fei attack Yao Qiang.

Yao Qiang was forced back by Big Sin. The knife was knocked off. His body was bitten by Big Sin. As his power weakened, Yao Yuan started to find his rationality. The boy was coming back to normal.

The two ghosts fought. The players hid behind Han Fei. No one dared to do anything. Yao Qiang was crazy. Even if he were seriously injured, he wouldn’t give up. He wanted to drag everyone down with him. He planned to give up Big Sin and turned to attack the players. But at that moment, a rusted knife pierced into his heart from behind!

With disbelief, Yao Qiang turned around. Yao Yuan grabbed the knife with both hands and mumbled under his breath.

“You killed me?!” Yao Qiang looked at his son. As his life disappeared, so did something else.

The clock stopped moving. Yao Qiang finally reacted. He reached behind him, but he couldn’t reach his son anymore. “You are so much like your mother…”

Big Sin snapped Yao Qiang’s neck. Resentment spread, and the edge of the nightmare started to collapse. Once Yao Qiang died, the mother lost her life and turned into a doll.

The third floor only had Yao Yuan left. He held the cursed blade and looked at the talismans in his room.

Shi Hwa picked up the doll, walked to Yao Yuan’s side, and hugged him.

“When he was small, your father was very poor. He was poor, sensitive, and had low self-esteem. He studied very hard and graduated from a good university, but hard work couldn’t change everything. After many failures, he became unhinged. When he got a son in his old age, he named him Yao Yuan so that he would go the distance. But he would never expect that… the biggest distance became the one between him and his son.”

Yao Yuan looked up at Shi Hwa. He thought she looked familiar, but the nightmare was over. Everything rushed towards Han Fei. Yao Yuan hugged the doll and said nothing.

Han Fei summoned Big Sin back. At the last moment, he walked to Shi Hwa and Yao Yuan. “Do you two know each other?”

“My full name is Yao Shi Hwa. My elder brother’s name is Yao Qiang. He only wanted the best for his son, but his son later killed him. His son even joined some killer’s chat group and became a fugitive.”

Butterfly tattoos covered Yao Yuan’s body, and then the boy disappeared with the nightmare.𝘧𝑟𝓮𝓮𝓌𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝑚
