"..." Alexander stood in front of the palace gate as he watched Theodore and those with him get out of the luxury car carrying them.

He preferred to wait inside the palace, but Alfred dragged him here, saying that he should meet Theodore at the gate

Theodore calmly led the group

" Father." Alexander smiled, greeting his father with a neutral expression

"Alexander." Theodore nodded. All that came out of his mouth was his son's name

It was a strange family reunion for outsiders like David and Elliot

"How are you, Alexander?" David patted Alexander's head and smiled sweetly.

"..." Alexander remained silent, looking at David with strange eyes

After several seconds, he clapped his hand lightly, looking at David in shock. "Uncle David!"

"..." The corner of David's mouth twitched

They met countless times

Why does it seem as if Alexander forgot who I am for a moment?

They met about two months ago. Does this boy suffer from Alzheimer's?

"Let's go in." Theodore quickly entered the palace

Alfred was walking right behind him

Everyone sat in a spacious room prepared to receive guests

Alfred stood behind Theodore, leaning forward slightly and whispering something in Theodore's ear

Theodore's expression was gray and he did not hide his annoyance

Alexander sat quietly, staring at Theodore's face

When will they realize there's no point in keeping the spear away from me?

After Alfred finished speaking, he stood up straight behind his master

Theodore looked at Alexander

Their eyes met for a moment, but Alexander looked away

Theodore spoke. "We suspect that there is a ghost controlling this spear."

It was difficult for Theodore to accept that these words had come out of his mouth, because of their absurdity

But the problem is that this is the only explanation they came up with after a lot of thinking

" ghost?!." Alexander's eyes widened

"Actually..." David looked at Elliot. "It was Elliot who came up with that explanation."

"Really?." There was an unnoticeable smile on Alexander's face

Others will not notice this smile

But to Elliot, who was closely examining all of Alexander's facial expressions, this was a smile of sarcasm and mockery.

This motherfucker... Elliot clenched his hands tightly as he resisted the urge to punch Alexander's provocative face

Elliot's plan was simple

If Alexander is not arrested, I will not be arrested

Therefore, I must keep Alexander away from suspicion if I want to protect myself as well

The ideal way to do this is to make Alexander a victim

So Elliot tells them that there is a possibility that a ghost was targeting Alexander

Thus, they will not suspect him or Alexander, and at the same time their eyes will be directed towards another person, the ghost who controls this spear.

It is true that he was trying to protect himself, but he was... very angry

He was the one who had to clean up this whole mess, while the main culprit of everything that happened sitting here pretending to be innocent

" is there a problem?." whispered Maria, who was sitting in the seat next to Elliot

"No…" Elliot replied in a low voice, "Why do you ask?"

"Because you were looking at Alexander as if you wanted to bury him alive."

"..." Was that so clear?

Elliot closed his eyes and tried to calm himself

Stolen story; please report.

Maria couldn't tell what kind of relationship these two had

According to Alexander, they became friends

But Maria felt that they were more like partners involved in a crime together

This feeling increased when she noticed Elliot's murderous look

They are like friends and enemies at the same time

"In this case, what should we do?" David asked

"I suggest we enlist the help of Saint Ner." Maria answered

"I think this is the best solution, sir." Alfred interjected formally. "The Saint and the Young Master are close friends."

Alfred took advantage of the situation to reveal the relationship between Alexander and Ner

"A friend with the saint?" Theodore looked at Alexander in shock

" Yes." Alexander answered briefly

David's breathing increased for a moment

This was big news

The saint was present in the temple all the time

How could Alexander build a relationship with her?

Did they know each other before this girl became a saint?

Many possibilities began to run through David's head

"In that case we will take the spear to the temple." Theodore made his decision."

-----------------

They arrived at the temple half an hour after they left

It was a majestic white building that expressed the sanctity of this place

Biko was standing at the entrance of the palace with some paladins to greet them

Theodore made sure to inform the temple officials that he wanted to visit the temple for something necessary

Temple officials welcomed this visit

Biko and Theodore shook hands and exchanged greetings, then entered a closed room deep in the temple

Biko looked at Alexander suspiciously

Why is this boy carrying this spear?

Alexander was holding the Dragon Blood Spear with a bored look on his face, as if he was being forced to do something against his will.

Theodore noticed Biko's skeptical look towards the spear

"Cough, actually the matter is..." Theodore began to tell him what happened with them

Biko listened to him quietly at first

But his expression changed as Theodore continued to speak

He looked at Alexander strangely

He heard about the legends of Alexander

Canceling the engagement with the royal family

attempt to suicide

Alexander's crazy behavior

Ghost attack on the Ford family mansion

And now there's this haunted spear

Is this young man a magnet for trouble?

"Why is this spear specifically targeting Alexander?" Biko asked, examining Alexander

Did the ghost find something in this young man?

From the view of the place around Alexander's room, it seemed as if ghosts were trying to enter Alexander's room

But something stopped them

This increased his suspicions about Alexander, but he had no evidence and could not interrogate Alexander because he belonged to a noble family.

However, strange events continue to happen around him

There's something fishy about this boy

A petty smile appeared on Alexander's face. "What if he was a crazy stalker before he died and became a ghost, hahaha..haha..cough."

Alexander laughed, but he started coughing when he saw that no one was laughing at his joke

Come on guys, I'm trying to lighten the mood and you're doing this to me

You don't have any sense of humor

Everyone looked at Alexander with blank faces

They were facing disaster

They don't know what kind of entity is inside the spear

It may be an entity that poses a danger to Alexander and those around him

However, Alexander was making silly jokes, unaware of the time bomb he was holding in his hands.

"I will inform the Saint about this matter." Biko left the room when he sensed the awkward feeling in the room

He was not happy to help someone like Alexander who was trying to take advantage of his relationship with the Saint

However, it was his duty to protect innocent people from danger

Although Alexander was a frivolous and arrogant child in his eyes, he did not deserve to die at the hands of an evil spirit

In addition, the saint will be sad

-----------------

One of the priests took them to a huge hall

Where Biko and Ner were waiting for them

Ner was wearing a white robe that covered her entire body with the temple symbol on the robe

Ner waved when she saw Alexander

Alexander waved in response

Theodore and David noticed the gesture

Are they really friends?

This made Theodore think deeply about what he should do to build a relationship with this chosen one

Alexander stood in the middle of the hall while Ner stood in front of him

Biko told them they would check on Alexander first

Ner reached out her hand hesitantly, but stopped midway

She had to touch Alexander to activate her ability

Why am I so hesitant?..... Ner asked herself with trembling eyes

"You can do it." Alexander smiled and encouraged her

"..." She felt as if he was treating her like a child taking his first steps

After several seconds, she was able to place her finger on his chest

She closed her eyes and activated her ability

After a full minute, she opened her eyes and said. " nothing."

Everyone exhaled in relief

If there was a ghost inside Alexander it would pose a big problem

Ten minutes later the spear was placed on a table in the middle of the hall

There was a serious expression on Ner's face

Biko told her that there was a ghost controlling this spear and haunting Alexander

She immediately thought of that entity that Themas had sensed inside Alexander's room

This ghost was haunting Alexander

Was Alexander not aware of this?

Ner's mind started racing as she tried to put the pieces together to see the full picture

She exhaled to calm her mind and then touched the spear with her eyes closed

After several seconds, she opened her eyes in confusion

"Is there a problem, Saint?" Biko asked when he noticed her unusual behavior

"This...are you sure there is a ghost inside the spear?" Ner asked Theodore

"We are sure." Theodore replied, "This spear moved from the capital to Cairn City within fifteen minutes. The only explanation for this is that there is a ghost inside the spear."

' Themas.' Ner asked her master for help

| I checked this spear as well but didn't notice anything strange.| Themas answered calmly

'Then why does this spear move on its own?'

| Even I don't know.| Themas sighed. She had seen a lot of strange things lately

Even though she had lived for thousands of years, she could not explain what had happened

Everyone was waiting for Ner to finish purifying this spear

She felt pressure from the eyes looking at her

She wants to escape as quickly as possible

She turned towards them submissively and said. "I didn't notice any soul in this spear."

"What...what, but we're sure that..." Theodore stammered

He didn't expect to get this answer

Ner shook her head. "She said she found nothing strange about the spear."

Everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva

They knew who Ner was talking about when she said 'she'

Ner was talking about Themas

Even Themas was unable to spot this ghost

Does this mean that there is no ghost inside this spear?

Theodore, Maria, and David began to suspect that there was a ghost in this spear

Alexander and Elliot were standing behind the group

The two of them were trembling after hearing Near's words

Sirens began to sound in Elliot's mind

Even Themas could not find this ghost

Elliot grabbed Alexander's shoulder and looked at him terrified with saying eyes. 'What kind of entity did you summon on earth?'

Alexander shook his head forcefully, 'I don't know either.'

Elliot wanted to strangle him immediately

Why make all this mess if you're not sure what kind of entities you're dealing with
