Chapter 239 Ghost
"OK, I have arranged for the operation, I will go through it tomorrow and your turn will be when I am done with it," Elma said as she looked deep into his eyes.
She was a bit worried about Jack and then hugged him, although she could feel the reassurance from Jack, she was still scared.
She didn't wanna part away from him like this, she wanted to spend more time, however if Jack was ready to take the risk then she couldn't force him too much.
All she could do was to place her life on the line and make him make the decision, she knew that Jack would never let her do something where there was a risk of life.
She believed in him and believed in his decision.
Jack kissed her forehead and then nodded, he was ready for the operation and he wasn't scared even a bit.
He patted her back a few times to give her some comfort and after that, he left her house and moved towards his.
Soon night fell and Jack was sleeping in Nicole's room, while she was out there somewhere. He didn't know where she went but she had told him that she had some important work to do and will only return tomorrow early morning.
Cassie and Susan were sleeping in their own rooms.
Outside their mansion, in the garden area, two people suddenly appeared, one of them was a girl and the other one was a guy.
Both of them were wearing back dresses and had a murderous gleam in their eyes. They looked at the mansion with contempt on their faces.
"So we have to kill that guy?" The girl said with a snort.
"Yes, and according to the information boss provided, he is only a human." The guy let out a disdainful chuckle.
"Why would red collars give us such a mission, Do those guys can't even kill a human?" The girl asked, there was a curious expression on her face.
"I don't know. It seems that there are some internal problems with the red collars and only because of that they ordered us to do it." The guy had contempt flashing on his face.
"Internal problems?" The girl raised her brows in confusion.
"Yes, or why would they order us to kill a human like him?" The man said and let out a chuckle.
"What problems do you think they have?" The girl asked.
"I don't know about that! Let's go and finish the business, I want to drink some booze after that." The man said and stepped forward.
The girl heard his words and a smile formed on her face. "Can you buy me some drinks too?" She asked.
The man looked at her and sneered. "If you let me fuck you."
"Shut up!" The girl said and a blush formed on her face. "You should treat your coworkers without asking for something in return." She murmured in an annoyed tone.
The man looked at her body up to down and snorted. "You should treat me too sometimes."
"If you talk to me like this then, I would never treat you for anything." She said and looked forward.
Both of them were standing just in front of the Mansion's main wall and just below Nicole's window.
"According to our information, more than one person is living in this mansion." The girl looked at the giant house. "Should we kill them all?" She asked.
"No, we are only paid to kill this Jack guy and we will only kill him. However, if anyone comes in between us then don't hesitate to silence them." The man said and looked at the window.
The girl listened to him and nodded. "That must be the room he is sleeping in." The girl looked at Nicole's window.
"Create a platform." The man looked at the girl.
She nodded and then her eyes turned red and soon enough a red aura platform formed below their legs that started pushing them up towards the window.
Jack on the other hand was sleeping in bed, however, suddenly a shudder moved through his body and his eyes flashed open.
Sweat formed on his body and he gulped his saliva. Since he has come from the other dimension his intention has become extremely strong.
And for some reason, he could now feel killing intent toward him.
He quickly moved his hand towards the drawer and got his death ring, which was given to him by Vieva.
Wearing it he hid under his bed.
Creek...
Soon enough the window opened and he could feel two people stepping into his room.
'My intuition was correct!' He thought and looked at the legs of the two people.
He could tell that one of them was a girl and the other one was a man, by their shoes.
And soon his speculation came true as their voices resounded in the room.
"Where is he? Is he not sleeping here?" The girl asked with a confused voice.
"No, that can't be the case as I have checked before coming, he was sleeping here just now." The man said as a frown appeared on his face.
"He must have gone to the bathroom, we should wait till he comes back." The girl murmured with an innocent voice.
The man listened to her words and looked around the room and after some time he spoke. "No that can't be the case."
"How do you know?" The girl was confused.
"Look at the bedsheets, they are mangled, it is as if he has left in a hurry and even that drawer is half open, he must have taken out a weapon from it." The man looked around some more and his eyes glanced at the door. "Check that door, if it's closed or not?" The man said.
The girl nodded and looked at the door. She then moved towards it and checked and it was open. "It's open." She looked back at the man.
He turned silent at her words. "Then he must have ran out."
Jack on the other hand sighed. He has left the door open for Nicole as she could have come anytime.
"You check this room, I will go out and check there." The man said and moved towards the door.
"Ok." The girl nodded and looked back.
The man then soon left the room and entered the hallway while closing the door accidentally.
The girl looked at the attached bathroom and moved towards it, an eerie feeling washing over her body. 'Why do I feel so scared? It's only a normal human.' She thought and gulped her saliva, she then moved towards the bathroom.
"He must be inside. There is no way a human can sense us." She murmured and placed her hand on the bathroom door.
"Agh..." However, suddenly her breath got stuck in her throat and tears moved from her eyes.
Her head slowly moved down and she could see a bloody hand out of her chest. "We..." She couldn't say anything as a terrified expression appeared on her face.
Her head then slowly turned around and she could see a cold face looking at her. She knew this man, she had seen a photo of him in her mission files.
"Jack..." She couldn't believe that a normal human actually managed to pierce his hand through her body. Her eyes then looked at his head and an even more terrified expression appeared on her face.
"Devil..." She could see two devil horns on his head and then she lost the glimmer of her eyes.
Her body turned powerless and fell on Jack, she was already dead.
Jack pushed her body to the ground and took his hand out of her chest. He used a brutal method to kill her as he was terrified himself.
Jack's eyes then landed on the closed door and he knew that the man accompanying this girl had gone out to search for him.
The black-dressed man looked down the stairs and could see no one, his eyes then landed on Cassie's and Susan's room.
'He must be in either of the two rooms.' A disdainful expression appeared on his face and two big katanas suddenly formed in his hands out of nowhere.
As he was about to move towards Cassie's room, he suddenly heard a thud and his ears perked up, his eyes widened and he looked at Nicole's room again.
"Remi..." He called out subtly and quickly made it towards Nicole's room again and just as he opened the door and looked inside his face turned pale.
"What?" A chill moved down his spine as he saw a horrifying scene in front of him, Remi was lying dead, her eyes soulless with a shocked expression on her face.
It was as if she died after seeing a ghost. And what was more eerie about the situation was that there was a bloody hole in her chest.
The man gulped his saliva and his body turned attentive, his focus narrowed and he looked for the culprit.
However there was no one else in the room, it was as if a real ghost had killed her and then disappeared!
