Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

The newbie princes wanted to know what plans the old princes were cooking up.

Another bloody war was inevitable, with major and powerful creatures being called back.

Again, things were getting lost and missing, with several important pieces getting stolen by each \'side.\'

Mammoth, prince of greed, found the item he worked hard to locate already promoted with words saying it was with the new princes.

Belphegor, prince of sloth, was also going crazy finding out that the enhancer he worked so hard to prepare for millenniums now got stolen.

What\'s worse, he couldn\'t smear it in the underworld? So didn\'t this mean it could be hidden in any of the billions of worlds out there?

Dammit!!!

The entire underworld was in utter chaos.

The field stench of death emitted strongly.

No one had time to focus on other matters except these.

Sigh... The days had gone by just like that, unbeknownst to Dorian.

.

--Tian Estate.--

.

Dorian sat in the dining, eating a simple yet fulfilling breakfast with tea.

And as he ate, Chan-Ki and Raulin calmly brought down his luggage from above, taking them to one of the vehicles, alongside a few exorcist materials in the wooden boxes.

It was clear that today would be a sunny day. Yet, because the Grandmaster was going on this far away trip, his absence only caused a gloomy atmosphere in the air.

Maybe because Dorian had always been with them from the onset, having him leave for so long was indeed too strange for them.

But of course, they would never slack around, keeping the estate\'s matters up to speed until the Grandmaster returned.

The only person heading out with the Grandmaster was Chan-ki.

He also placed his luggage in the boot of the vehicle and took an extra coat just to be sure.

Alright. They were good to go.

All that was left was the Grandmaster to make the call.

Gulp.

Angzen swallowed hard, secretly taking a few peeks of his student.

As promised, Dorian had agreed to escort him back to his rural village where he was born and brought up.

Being called a village only meant that the settlement site had a small population of 500~4,000.

The youth in the village, just like himself, all dream of moving away to the big cities as soon as they can.

Some stay back, inheriting their family\'s farms, lands, and businesses, while others return from the city after failure to officially settle in.

All in all, his village has always had a steady and seldom changing population flow.

Though the landmass was extensive with many farms and homes scattered about, the population had always been small and has always been a problem for the village heads who all wanted to grow their villages bigger.

Of course, his village also had a factory set up by some big guy in one of the major cities.

The factory provided a lot of income for them village folk, with at least one child or person in a family working in the factory.

Often, the oldest would inherit while the rest would have to find work in the factory or do other petty street businesses.

But even with the factory out in place, not many based in bigger places would leave their prosperous cities to travel to these remote villages for work while living in homes they weren\'t used to.

Thus, the population had always been relatively constant.

Angzen\'s body shook anxiously.

Can anyone tell him why he didn\'t notice this student was so intimidating?

Maybe because this was his first time in such a wealthy estate or because of what he knew about Dorian that made him a little frightened to anger this God.

\'I have to be careful not to offend him, or wouldn\'t I die without anyone finding my corpse?\'

.

Angzen held his toasted loaf of bread with trembling hands, trying to contain himself.

"Student Dorian... After I used your talismans, the gloomy air around me faded. And no one else around me also had accidents. So is it time for me to stop using it?"

"Hmmm... Should be." Dorian replied calmly.

Before sending Angzen on his way, Dorian had kept his parents\' ghost in a pendant.

Following that, he had given Angzen ghost warding talismans and instructions on how to balance his Yin and Yang, seeing that he came into too much Yin contact thanks to his ghostly parents.

Dorian lazily glanced at him from the corners of his eyes. "Eat up. We have a long day ahead of us."

"Ah!-... Yes!"

Angzen quickly dug into the meal without delay.

After all, his student was right.

They had to leave quickly, it would take 16 hours to drive to his village.

So today, they would spend their time on the road. And tomorrow, they\'ll begin with whatever needs doing in his village.

According to what the Grandmaster said, they might stay there for a day or even 2, based on the situation at hand.

That\'s why even though he packed light, he entered to take all necessities with him.

Like so, Dorian and Angzen finished their meal, heading out towards the vehicle.

"Shen, Bewoh, Haru, Raulin, Zhulyn... You 5 know your tasks. Your top priority is my parents, followed by everything else guarding the estate and the academy. Pandrol is here with you. So guard these places and continue training."

"Yes, Grandmaster!"

Say no more. They would do as he said.

With that, Dorian, Chan-ki, and Angzen took off.

But some nosy people just couldn\'t help themselves from reporting what they saw.

.

\'What? Leaving for a long trip?\'

Alice felt obligated to report this to Mr. Green fast. This could help her quicken things up!

[Sir, they just left the mansion for a long trip.]

Message sent.

In the hotel, Green\'s face turned distorted.

He had also gotten news that Dorian\'s vehicle had left the estate, but he thought they were moving around the city.

A trip?

Dammit!

He grabbed his headpiece fiercely.

"After them! No matter how far they go, stay in their tail!!!"

Snake and the rest were on edge, feeling that their target was getting more mysterious by the day.

But they weren\'t the only ones feeling overly anxious.

In a town between Angzen\'s village and this city, an even stranger sight was occurring.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh~"

A woman screamed with all her might, seeing her husband step into their home.

Her heart pounded as she used her finds to crawl backward in horror.

"No! No! No!~... How can you be here? I buried you last year."

Her pupils dilated, and her hairs stood erect.

Someone... Anyone... Please save her from this nightmare.
