At night, the light rain of the day gradually expands into heavy rain, raging in the sound of thunder and lightning.

Hilbert sat on the bed, his mind not resting for a moment.

Who is the mysterious person who appeared during the day, and what does it have to do with his father and the Chacus family?

Why do they say that they are the deceased of the Chakus family, and not the deceased of their grandfather or father?

What does the phrase "It's incredible that the blood of the Chakus family would die of a heart attack!"?

Grandpa Colini said that Chacus was a great family with historical roots.

My father had always been proud of the title of Baron Chacus, was it really just because of this not-so-big title of nobility?

Hilbert Chacus suddenly discovered that despite his aristocratic education and growing up in a family atmosphere, he had never really understood the family.

During the period from childhood to sensibility, he blindly complained about his father's rigidity and strictness, but when he thought about it now, he found that he didn't know his father at all and didn't understand the origin of the Chacus family.

He suddenly felt that it was very likely that the harsh environment in his eyes when he was a child was already the most tolerant that his father had reserved, and he was so tolerant that he never let himself know the secrets that the Chacus family might have!

However, regardless of the origins of the Chacus family, after the visit of the mysterious man during the day, Hilbert's long-standing suspicions were strengthened again.

"Father definitely didn't die a normal death!"

He muttered to himself, his hand squeezing the sheet whitening his knuckles with force.

I would have compromised before, and I would have believed that that the magnificent and broad back would be defeated by a small heart attack!

Once he accepted this view, which he had always doubted, Hilbert's curiosity and desire to learn exploded.

While trying to find out the cause of his father's death, there was also a strange sense of excitement in his heart.

Just a noble baronial family owned a large estate before the New Age, and why did the family keep such a low profile all along?

What is the family origin in Collini's grandfather's mouth, and why even he doesn't know those two mysterious people.

The more I reminisced and pondered, the more I felt that the Chacus family might be extraordinary.

Why didn't there be rain on those two people, was it because of the waterproof material of the clothes?

Waterproof clothes just let the water droplets, but they don't drip or wet, not to mention that they don't even get their hair wet.

In fact, Hilbert understood during the day that the two who came to mourn their father in the rain were probably not mortals!

It's just that the education he has received over the years has made him subconsciously deny this possibility until his thoughts explode in the middle of the night.

He wasn't worried about not seeing the two of them, Hilbert was sure that they would still be there tomorrow when his father's coffin was buried!

。。。

Even Qin Xiaoxia didn't expect that before he guided him, Hilbert, the only direct bloodline of the Chakus family now, was unwilling to believe that his father died of a heart attack.

This obsession is so strong that a little dialing is unexpectedly effective.

However, Qin Xiaoxia didn't really think about it before saying that, because when he saw the corpse of Old Chakus, he did feel a little strange.

There is no magic sense, no special energy, and if I have to say, it feels a little discordant, like the big map that sees the dawn.

But the tangled thing is that Qin Xiaoxia thinks that he doesn't have a demon-summoning physique, and Su Su is unlikely, so he won't find a random place and meet an uninvited guest from another world, right?

There was something bad about it, and it even gave him the illusion that old Chacus's death was a bit affected by himself, but he also understood that it was unlikely.

In order to be on the safe side, he specially buried a hint of psychic power when he looked at Hilbert, which was learned from the last time the Red Banshee was in the hotel against Xiao Lili.

Because before going out, Qin Xiaoxia had already reacted to what the cause of the discord on the corpse might be, and it happened to be used to make some arrangements.

Since he doesn't have the talent of a kraken, he can't be as perverted as the Red Banshee to make people "sleepwalk", but he can also bury a trace of hidden magic on his spiritual level in a short period of time.

This is completely sufficient, because Qin Xiaoxia does not need to be confused, and the self-inference that a sober person derives from what he has seen and heard will make him convinced of certain things.

。。。

"Boom~"

The thunder shook Hilbert awake, and he found that he had fallen asleep at some point.

The rain outside the window has not stopped, and there is no tendency to weaken in the slightest.

It was a little cold, and he didn't have the idea of staying up late, so he decided to wash up and go to bed after many years of habit.

Although the ancestral house is equipped with modern electrical equipment, the layout of the rooms cannot be changed, and the bathroom needs to pass through the stairs to the other end of the corridor on the second floor.

I looked at the time on my phone, and it was already two o'clock in the morning.

Opening the door, the hallway was dark and gloomy, with only the occasional flash of lightning illuminating everything.

Hilbert, who was familiar with the place, didn't turn on the light, and walked towards the bathroom, pausing as he passed the staircase.

The location of the mourning hall should be lit up, why is it dark now in the direction below the stairs?

Could it be that the circuit was struck by lightning?

Looking at the phone, the IFI was still intact on the screen, indicating that there was no power outage.

Frowning, Hilbert turned on the staircase light and went straight downstairs through a doorway to the mourning hall.

There was a "click", and it was opened.

My father lay peacefully in the coffin, and the flowers in the cluster were still blooming brightly because of the relationship between the flowers and the soil.

After sitting in the mourning hall for a while, Hilbert went upstairs to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash up.

However, when he passed by the staircase, he noticed that the lights had gone out again.

"Ahh A sound came from downstairs, very similar to the sound of sharp fingernails grinding against aluminum alloy, and Hilbert couldn't help but get goosebumps.

"Ahh ”

A second sound came, and he couldn't help but tremble.

The sound couldn't stand it anymore, and he was also nervous about the mourning hall, so he turned on the light and ran down.

The lights in the mourning hall were turned on again, and the interior was still the same.

。。。

In the distance outside Chakus Manor, two black-clad voices stood in the rain, and through the distant rain curtain, the lights on the first floor of the big house could still be seen turned off and on.

"Mentor, won't he be in danger?"

Su Su looked a little worried.

"Don't worry, it's just a trivial thing, the bloodline of the Chakus family is not as fragile as you think!"

When Qin Xiaoxia said this, his eyes looked around, as if he was looking for something.

"There is really something wrong with the death of old Chacus, but I don't know where the main owner is?"

This made Su Su nervous, but when she thought of having a mentor there, she was immediately relieved.

This rain was indeed caused by Qin Xiaoxia, the purpose was not to set off the atmosphere, let alone to play, but the trace of strangeness he felt from the old baron's corpse reminded him of a weak semi-yin spiritual monster.

That's the Eater of Souls.

The name sounds like a powerful thing, but it's actually a kind of weak creature with low intelligence, and only when the creature dies will they dare to approach the corpse or the Yin Spirit's scattered place, and try to grab a trace of the remaining soul from the corpse.

The trace of discord on Old Chakus's corpse was actually a weak Eater of Souls mark, indicating that earlier, the Eater of Souls knew that this person was going to die, leaving a trace in advance.

It's just that the soul and body of humans are far more powerful than those of Soul Eaters, and the mark is easily disintegrated by the immunity of the soul and body of humans, leaving only a faint trace of special smell.

Su Su was a little unconvinced when he said it, a kind of monster can be so weak that even the light is afraid, although the light will not cause them any real harm, but they know that there will be many creatures moving under the light.

Wet and gloomy, rainy nights are the most popular activity situations for Eaters of Souls.

Weak creatures often have their own peculiarities, and Eaters of Souls can extract soul elements from the remnants of corpses, not much, but there is always a trace of it.

This kind of soul substance is difficult to extract even if some powerful mana controllers want to, but it is a talent for soul eaters, so it is often controlled by some powerful monsters for their own use.

Seeing Su Su's nervousness, Qin Xiaoxia smiled dumbly.

"It's also possible that there is no main master at all, but I think too much. ”

However, even if there were no other monsters, it was a coincidence that the Light Soul Eater would appear in Chakus Manor, and Qin Xiaoxia couldn't help but look up at the sky and the earth without knowing what he was thinking.

。。。

"Who?

Screamed twice and there was no response.

Hilbert looked at his father's coffin in the light, but this time there seemed to be something wrong.

When I looked at it, it wasn't that the coffin was wrong, but that there was something wrong with the flowers on the side of the coffin!

Although it is not obvious, there are some places on the left and right sides where the flowers appear wilted, which distinguishes them from those of their own surroundings that are still full and in full bloom.

A little frightened in my heart, a series of speculations about my father's unnatural death rolled out of my mind again.

Could it be a paranormal event?

Nervously, he left the mourning hall and went upstairs, but he did not return to his room, but waited quietly in the dark corridor.

Maybe I should wake up my mother or a few servants?

As this thought flashed, the lights downstairs went out again.

Hilbert didn't wake anyone up, but quietly went downstairs in the dark, this time without turning on the lights or making any noise.

After tiptoeing to the porch, he first looked in the direction of the restaurant, and then quietly looked through the porch to the mourning hall.

"Ugh... Ahh ”

Goosebumps bulged all over his body, not only because of the voice, but also because he saw that in the mourning hall, on his father's coffin, there were two white and transparent monsters lying on their stomachs.

It looks like a misshapen monkey, except that it has no tail, and its long arms end in a pair of strange hands with sharp nails.

Hilbert's breathing grew rapid, and his body trembled slightly.

At this moment, the two monsters were reaching out and digging into the coffin, and the glass cover seemed to be unable to act as a partition.

"Ugh... The sound made Hilbert's goosebumps even worse.

Suddenly, a burst of courage rose inexplicably in his heart, as if he had found his father's murderer, and Hilbert rushed into the mourning hall.

"You killed my father, didn't you, you filthy spirits!!"

The two Eaters of Souls appear to be greatly frightened.

"!!" "Ah!!hhhh

Each let out a roar and jumped away from the coffin, fleeing with great agility.

Hilbert was furious.

"If you want to run!! return my father's life!! ah!!"

In a trance, brush ~

He seemed to have crossed a long distance, and from the porch, he caught up with one of the Eaters of Souls who had already reached the fireplace in the lobby.

"Give Me !! Death"

Punch! Hilbert, who had no weapons, could only think of this one way of striking.

"Bang~"

The fist suddenly lit up with a blue light, and the ashes of the entire fireplace shook.

"Wooh... ”

With a short, grotesque scream, the Eater of Souls was shattered, leaving behind a puddle of white, foul-smelling liquid.

After this outburst, a strong feeling of muscle soreness and fatigue came, and Hilbert was unable to move anymore, watching as another monster sprang out of the open window, as if they were not completely capable of penetrating the wall.

Fear, fear, doubt, peculiarity, excitement...

Hilbert, who was throbbing all over, was overwhelmed by these mixed emotions afterwards.

'What were those just now?' Why can I ... ’
