Andy stood in the dark corner of the alley and watched Eva leave. After Eva disappeared, he moved his arm and made a clicking sound.

"This woman is not simple. She seems to have good skills. Although I was frightened, she behaved calmly..."

"She was born from a noble woman, so it is impossible for her to have such qualities. If she was trained by that Peter, I'm afraid this Peter is similar to Roger!"

Andy thought silently, and felt that things became more and more interesting. A heart of the ocean involved so many things, and there were many pirate ships from other sea areas rushing to Stormwind Sea, which made him look forward to it even more.

Seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, Andy didn't plan to wander outside anymore. If he encountered a timid one, he might be scared to death by him.

Just when Andy was about to leave, a faint blue flame suddenly lit up in his empty eye sockets, and it jumped a few times quickly.

A strong hunger also erupted in Andy's empty body. Andy's body made a sound of rubbing bones, and his head turned to the side involuntarily.

With the help of the ghost fire, Andy clearly saw a transparent ghost floating gently on the wooden barrel beside him.

The ghost looked like a little boy, staring at Andy blankly, as if he didn't realize that he had been discovered by others.

It was not until Andy walked towards him that the little boy showed a trace of fear and wanted to float back.

His head had already burrowed into the wall, but at this time Andy had stretched out his pale palm, with a layer of black gas attached to it, and firmly grasped the little boy's leg.

It was the first time Andy came into contact with ghosts. He felt very novel. With a little force, he pulled the little boy out of the wall.

The little boy struggled a few times. Seeing that he couldn't break free, there was a faint look of fear on his face, and he didn't dare to look at the ghost fire in Andy's eye sockets.

Ghosts are different from the witch souls that Andy had sucked out before. Souls cannot be exposed to the air, while ghosts are different. They can attach to anything and appear at will in places without sunlight.

And during the day, they hide in the shadows of humans.

However, ghosts are obtained by manipulating souls through black magic, and only some special souls can evolve into ghosts.

The most common ones are those souls full of resentment.

Andy looked at the little boy in his hand. Although Andy was holding him, he couldn't feel any weight.

"Why did you follow me? Who asked you to come?"

Andy's mouth opened and closed with an unpleasant rubbing sound.

The ghost boy didn't react at all, his head lowered, looking like a child in a daze.

Andy felt a desire to be born in his body that didn't come, urging him to swallow the ghost in one mouthful.

Of course, he can't eat now.

What he needs is to use the ghost fire to absorb the power of the ghost. Andy doesn't know what will happen, but his instinct, or the instinct of this skeleton body, is driving him.

Andy stretched out the other hand and lifted the little boy's head up. When the little boy's dull eyes met Andy's ghost fire, fear showed, and his body struggled involuntarily.

It was a trembling from the soul, an instinctual struggle.

The faint blue flame throbbed, transformed into a fiery spirit, evolved into a vortex and slowly rotated, and Andy's consciousness also turned into chaos in an instant.

"Jack! Don't run around! Don't go ahead, you know?"

The woman who was busy with farm work wiped her sweat and called out to the little boy in the manor not far away.

This is the manor of the nobleman. She just came here to help with the work, but her child is too young, so she brought the child there.

I heard that the nobleman wants to see a very important guest today, and he forbids the servants and servants to run to the front and ram the guest.

"I know, Mommy~"

The little boy chased the butterfly, answered absentmindedly, and laughed.

The butterfly flew towards the outside of the manor. The little boy kept his eyes on the butterfly and chased out with small steps.

The butterfly flew to the front and disappeared after a turn. The little boy looked at it blankly, and saw a kind grandfather not far away, and the butterfly was flapping its wings in his hand.

The little boy looked back blankly. He had already run out of the manor for some distance. He should go back, or his mother should be in a hurry.

The little boy only walked a few steps when he saw the old grandfather brought the butterfly to him, and handed the butterfly to him with a smile.

"Son, what's your name?"

"Jay... Jack."

The boy looked at the butterfly and replied in a low voice.

"Jack, I'll give you this butterfly, and you'll give me something too, okay?"

While the old man was talking with a smile, he looked at the little flower in his hand, his other hand gestured a few times in the air, and several black symbols disappeared into the air.

"OK."

The boy looked at the butterfly handed by the old grandfather and at his own flower, his eyes smiled like a crescent moon, and he stretched out his hand.

But when he took the butterfly, he was suddenly dizzy, and then he lost the ability to think.

The little boy saw that he came out of his body, was put into a bottle by the old man, and then completely lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, Andy woke up faintly, the ghost fire in the eye socket beat again and returned to its original state.

"Phillips...the sorcery of trading souls..."

Andy looked at the little boy~lightnovelpub.net~ and shook his head gently. The boy was deceived by Phillips because a butterfly gave his soul to Phillips.

The boy's soul can't remember what happened after that. Judging from the sluggish appearance of the little boy now, it should be that Phillips forcibly refined his soul into a ghost, which caused irreversible damage to the boy's soul.

The boy's grievance is weak, and it is not suitable to be converted into a ghost.

As for the resentful soul, Phillips was afraid that he would not be able to handle it.

"What do you see?"

Andy thought for a while and said to the boy that he was obviously sent by Phillips to monitor him.

Hearing the question, a bit of spirituality appeared in the boy's dull eyes, and a consciousness entered Andy's mind.

Exactly what happened after he left the Pirate League!

Andy was afraid for a while. If he hadn't discovered this ghost, he would have known all his secrets to Phillips.

"Forget it, your current state is worse than death, so I'll help you."

Andy knew the cause and effect, no longer suppressed his instinct, and the ghost fire suddenly released a suction.

The boy's expression was a little distorted, he struggled, but slowly calmed down, his expression became calm, even relieved.

A swirling black mist appeared in the boy's transparent body, stripped out and absorbed by the ghost fire.

That was the power reserved by Phillips' witchcraft, the power that transformed the boy's soul into a ghost.

Andy felt a sense of relief released from his bones, and the skeleton frame trembled, becoming whiter and even fainter.

When the black fog disappeared, Andy let go of his hand, and the boy's soul drifted out. He would float in the sea and enter the world of the dead along the ocean.
