Pablo was holding Sera’s hands and she was over the moon.
His words didn’t even register inside her brain. She was just focused on Pablo’s hands.
"So you are calling your assistant an Angel?" Plato asked.
"What? You are calling me an Angel. You think I am an Angel. That’s so sweet." Sera heard that full well.
"No. She is good but I am talking about her Angel. The male one." Pablo clarified.
"Oh. But will he go?" Plato asked.
Pablo stared into Sera’s eyes. "If my dear assistant orders him, then he will definitely go."
"Yes. Andre. Do what he says. I won’t hear any refusal from you. Do what he says."
’Her love is insane.’
Pablo just acted nicely to her and she already agreed to help him.
"Alright. I will give you a list."
Pablo took a pen and paper and wrote some things on it.
He gave the paper to Sera.
"Give this to Andre and give him some money as well. We won’t steal. He shall go, gather the items, give the money and come here." Pablo said.
"No shops would be open right now though. It’s night." Plato said.
"I don’t think he needs the shop to be open to bring things."
"Yes. He can buy things with the shop closed." Sera said.
"Then order him to go, Sera. It’s high time."
"Yes. Andre, go away. Take this list and money and go. Come back as fast as possible." Sera gave the list and a pouch to Andre.
Andre wanted to refuse but Sera was in no mood to hear that.
Pablo was holding her hands and she wanted no disturbance in her romantic moment.
Andrezj figured he had no choice but to go so he agreed.
But he would come back as soon as possible.
"Did he go?" Pablo asked.
"Yes. He went away." Sera answered.
Pablo smiled. "You are a big help."
"Thank you." Sera was all smiles.
’I am also very happy.’ Cupid chimed in.
’Why are you happy?’ Pablo asked.
’Even though it’s night, the shops would be closed and yet, you asked Sera to give money to Andre for buying the items. That’s real honesty right there.’ Cupid sniffed. She was shedding tears of happiness.
’What are you talking about? I asked Sera to give him money because the ghosts are watching. I don’t want them to think I am a dishonest man. Otherwise why would I waste money when Andre can buy anything he wants without money.’ Pablo revealed.
’What?’ Cupid’s tears went back inside her eyes. ’I thought you were a changed man.’
’Your fault. Deal with it.’
Pablo shrugged and ignored Cupid’s further words.

Meanwhile, the minds of the slaves were disrupted.
They believed Sera could do magic and healing but when they saw the list floating in the air and it going away, they were out of their wits.
They couldn’t see Andrezj and they couldn’t believe in the existence of an Angel.
"Um, sir," Nike spoke. He gathered courage to disturb Pablo and Sera.
"Yes?" Pablo asked, without looking at the slave.
"Who is Andre and how did the list vanish from the air?"
Andrezj had gone away with the list but for the slaves, the list just disappeared.
Pablo sighed. "I will tell you later. For now, just take it easy."
"Okay."
The slaves would not ask again and Pablo didn’t want to tell them the whole thing either.
Pablo focused on Sera and Sera was blushing everytime she looked in Pablo’s eyes.
’Now that I am holding her hand. Let’s do that again.’
Pablo used his Ego on Sera. Once more. It would help him in dealing with the white mist.
[ Mimesis Malefica In Use! ]
[ You have already seen the Target’s memories. ]
[ Keep holding the Target’s hands for ten seconds! ]
Pablo was already holding her hands and after ten seconds..
[ Ego Successfully Copied! ]
[ You have copied this Ego several times. You can keep it for ten hours now! ]
[ Since you have copied the Target’s Ego several times, the amount of life force deducted will be large as well! ]
[ If you keep copying the Ego of the Target, the amount of life force deduction will increase and as a result, the Target will lose their life and die. Keep this in mind. ]
’Oh. So if I keep copying Sera’s Ego she will die. That’s dark.’
’Keep it in mind. You can’t kill someone like that.’ Cupid spoke as usual.
’Yeah. I know. She is useful to me. I can’t have her dying. Not that I will stop using her Ego. The same luck that helps me, will help her as well.’ Pablo didn’t take the System’s message all that seriously.
"You know, whenever you hold my hands like this, for some reason, I feel.. weak." Sera said, smiling.
’That’s on me.’
"It’s natural." Pablo replied.
"This weakness must be love, right? I love you so much that I feel weak around you."
Pablo nodded. "You are right."
"So love is a weakness?" Sera asked.
Pablo sighed. "Love is the strongest weakness."
Clap!
Clap!
Clap!
Sudden claps rang around the room and Pablo was forced to turn around.
He let go of Sera’s hands and Sera didn’t complain as well.
Pablo saw the source of the claps and it was all the ghosts who were clapping.
Later on, the slaves joined the fray as well.
Pablo frowned. "What happened?"
"You landed yourself a beautiful woman, detective. A perfect assistant." Plato said.
"Yes. Big sister is so pretty." Jenny was happy as always.
"I had figured the moment I saw these two. They are love birds." Richard, the eldest ghost kid, was also there.
"I feel weak around you." Plato imitated Sera.
Then he tried to do Pablo. "Love is the biggest weakness, my dear."
"I didn’t say ’my dear’." Pablo corrected Plato.
"So you agree with other things?" Plato asked.
"Look, she is my assistant and she loves me. But I don’t think I am good enough for her and I don’t outright love her. I am trying to figure out my feelings. She is a very good girl and I like being around her. That’s all."
Pablo gave a lengthy explanation.
’How can you lie so much in one breath?’ Cupid asked. She was amazed at Pablo’s talent.
Pablo ignored her and stared at the ghosts.
"If you say so. You both look great together, though. Good luck." Plato gave his blessings.
The other ghosts did the same and Pablo shook his head.
He let them be and sat on the wooden chair.
Sera also sat down and Pablo was in front of her.
They both looked at each other and Pablo was not sure what sort of face he should make.
’I hope I hadn’t said anything to make this girl mad.’
Sera was looking at him with silent expressions and Pablo could tell she wasn’t happy.
"I am so happy right now I could die."
’The fuck?’
Pablo was blown away.
"Er. You don’t look happy to me." He said.
"I just don’t know what to express. You said to him that you like being around me and that is the best thing you have said to me yet." Sera reached out for a hug.
Pablo moved back.
"Calm down, Sera."
Sera stopped.
’What’s taking Andre so long? Come back. She will sit on top of me if this goes on.’
Pablo wanted Sera to remain as his assistant only but she spoke all those things in front of the ghosts so he had to say all that to the children and Plato.
"I am here!"
"Waaahh!" Sera screamed.
"Wha-What happened? Is it a ghost?" Plato asked.
’Irony at its peak.’ Pablo remarked.
Sera’s scream bewildered everyone but not Pablo.
He would have been also scared if not for Cupid telling him beforehand that Andrezj was coming. She sensed him before everyone else.
"It’s just him, girl. Why did you shout like that?" Plato asked.
"He just came out of nowhere and he shouted as well. Can’t blame me." Sera was calm now.
"I am sorry, dearest. I was in a hurry." Andrezj apologized.
"It’s fine. Have you brought the things?" Sera asked.
"Yes." Andrezj’s hands were empty but he snapped his fingers and items after items fell out of thin air.
’He can do spatial magic as well. Goddess Alfida gave him so many powers.’ Cupid said.
’Good for him.’ Pablo wasn’t surprised by Andrezj’s powers as now he had gotten the items and he would begin his work again.
TUNG!
TUNG!
Two loud metal sounds rang in the room and everyone was amazed by that.
"So big."
"This is where the melting will happen. I get it."
The ghosts understood. That sound came from two huge cauldrons that Andrezj had brought with him.
"Yes. In these two things, the black substance will be created in a large quantity. But not here. It will be done in the main hall, below the stairs." Pablo said.
The ghosts nodded.
Pablo walked towards the cauldron and picked one of them with one hand.
He then looked at his slaves. "You guys, pick the second one and come down."
Pablo walked out of the room and the slaves walked towards the second cauldron.
"I can pick it up. No need for all of us." Nike said to the other slaves and bent down to pick up.
He held it with one hand just like Pablo and…
"Grr. So heavy. No wonder he told all of us to pick it up."
Nike couldn’t lift it like Pablo. He moved back and the other slaves came forward to help.
After that, they all bent down but…
"Stop!" Jenny shouted.
Even Pablo stopped.
The slaves stared at her and Pablo did the same.
Jenny stepped forward and placed her hands on her waist.
"I will pick these boys up."
