“And what if they don’t work harder?”

Boink scanned the room with his eyes before sighing: “Then I will need to consider moving again.”

“But you’re a monster. How come you’re still afraid of ghosts?” Dawn made a shocked face and hurriedly came around.

“And why can’t a monster be afraid of ghosts? Those things aren’t living beings. They have no logic or reasoning to them at all, and if caught by one, you would be lucky to come out of the ordeal alive. Worst of all, there’s no loot to pick up even if you pop one of them… Nothing but work and without reward, who would want to deal with those things?”

Shadow sneered at that logic, “Ha! More like you’re afraid of those monster hunters, right?”

Boink puffed up his fur at being seen through, “They all say cats are cunning. I guess they weren’t kidding.”

“What’s going on here?” Dawn was really at a loss at how the conversation was evolving.

It’s like confronting two school honor students. While the other party was already learning calculus, he was still fumbling with adding and subtracting.

Torture!

Shadow chuckled, “It’s simple. Didn’t I say it before Landlord? The monster hunters will descend upon an area if the first group fails in their mission. They won’t relent until the ghost gets exterminated, and if there are any other monsters nearby, they too will be exterminated along with the threat.”

Dawn fell into a stunned state before asking tentatively, “Will there be more powerful monster hunters coming?”

“That’s right, when the time comes for them to search out that ghost, they will definitely activate a tracking spell. Landlord, if I remember correctly…. There’s a rumor going around that your house is haunted, right? Do you think the monster hunters will focus their investigation here if they hear about it?”

“Gah…!”

No wonder Boink would think of running away in advance. It’s only Dawn who’s dumb enough not to connect the dots.

“The powerful ghost originally used resentment as its fuel, and necromancy refines the souls of the dead. By using these two combinations, the female ghost can grow incredibly strong and fast by devouring the essence of living creatures…. To simply put, the more that ghost kills, the stronger it will become. Those monster hunters will have a handful to deal with if they don’t stop that ghost soon, otherwise, many people will die as a result.”

Boink’s words were tinged with obvious disgust. Although he’s a monster too, he’s fond of humanity. After all, humankind created so many great inventions in modern society. Without all these entertainments, what would he do in the future if he’s bored?

Dawn got quiet for a good while before he mustered the courage to speak again, “Is there a way to stop this?”

When he asked this question, the task column from the mysterious pendant suddenly refreshed in his head. A new mission appeared, which took the guy by surprise when he saw it.

“Destroy the resentful ghost and earn Order Points….”

He wouldn’t be so surprised if it were simply to destroy the ghost, but an extra reward had been added in the column: Arbiter’s Invitation Note.

[Arbiter’s Invitation Note: Able to absorb selected biological individuals and add them to your team. No limit on race and age. All members share the Arbiter’s item usage authority. If a team member decides to withdraw, their relevant memories are erased upon departure so please consider the candidate carefully.]

Dawn’s mind came alive at the possibilities this entailed. To tell the truth, he was pretty hesitant to tackle this problem before receiving this mission. He’s no saint nor a hero from those TV shows where they have infinite courage and power. If the two monsters in his family didn’t have a foolproof grasp on the matter, he might’ve bought a plane ticket and hightailed it out of here.

Avoidance was undoubtedly shameful but also helpful at times….

But now it’s different. Dawn had all the temptations needed to get to work. In fact, he’s got a powerful feeling he would regret it in the future if he doesn’t take this fight.
