Chapter 59: Moonwraiths, Bloodwraiths
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Uh... Nothing." The spirit avoided Calvin's gaze.
At this moment, the spirit of the Notebook of Secrets That Will Destroy Your Life has assumed the image of Kevin. Since it was incredibly familiar with Kevin's image. It decided to temporarily borrow the figure of the young boy in order to manifest in the physical world.
Calvin didn't really mind it.
Kevin stretched his hand out and handed the ancient notebook to Calvin along with a pen.
"What is this?"
"What you ask? An hour has passed since you wrote the earliest secret that you have! You must write another one!"
"Oh, sure..." Calvin took the pen out of Kevin's hands and pondered for a moment.
Kevin stared strangely at Calvin.
He didn't expect that Calvin would just casually take the pen and reveal an earth-shattering secret. Of course, he knew that Calvin was a treasure trove of secret due to his past identity. However, he was still shocked since usually when he asked someone of their secrets, they would do their best to hide it and would only write it in reluctance.
But Calvin was so casual about it.
Wasn't he afraid that I'd reveal his secrets to the public?
Kevin furrowed his eyebrows.
Calvin noticed his strange gaze and said with a smile, "Nope, I'm not worried about that at all..."
"What are you talking about?"
"Aren't you thinking that I may be afraid that you'll reveal my secrets to the public?"
"Yeah, aren't you?" Kevin nodded.
"No. In fact, can you even do that? I heard ancient notebooks are a tight-ass when it comes to rules and as much as how much you like to talk and how much you like secrets, I heard that it's your rule to never prattle the secrets of others to anyone. If you do, then a certain punishment will come. I don't know about that punishment though, but is it true?"
Kevin went speechless for a moment before he heaved a sigh.
"Why the long sigh?" Calvin asked in curiosity.
"Nothing... It's just for some reason. I feel naked while you're staring at me. It's as if you already know what I am, and what I can do."
"Hahaha... That's true." Calvin lightly chuckled.
Kevin stared right at Calvin and saw that he didn't even deny his words.
But Kevin didn't know what he should feel...
Should he say that all of these were as expected to that of a previous Apex Predator of the Writer Profession?
Kevin could only shake his head and bitterly smile.
With his future master knowing everything that he had to offer, Kevin had virtually no trump card at all against Calvin.
What if Calvin mistreated him and tried to make him do his bidding despite his refusal?
Kevin felt the world around him collapsing.
But a word given should never be taken back
Despite Kevin's worries, he knew that his fate was sealed.
He would become Calvin's Blessed Artifact.
Calvin turned to look at Kevin.
Even though human nature and the human heart could be considered as his weaknesses, Calvin wasn't as dense as a neutron star. Of course, he could see and notice Kevin's worries. But he knew that words were useless here. Deep-seated worries couldn't possibly be diffused with mere words.
Calvin knew that he had to act.
"You still haven't told me about who among the remaining demons I should be careful with."
Kevin looked at him and said, "You should be careful of that mountain of fat Nick, and sir Reyes."
"Reyes? My homeroom teacher?" Calvin was astounded.
"Yeah, but don't be too shocked that you didn't feel his strength despite your perceptiveness. It's completely normal since that demon is not an ordinary demon. Sir Reyes is a Bloodwraith, while that fatty Nick is a Moonwraith." Kevin stared right at Calvin after he said all of these. It was as if he was gauging Calvin's reactions to his words.
"A Bloodwraith and a Moonwraith. What's more, I have to face them at the same time. Damn, why did you bring these two territorial monsters in such a tight space like this damned school!" Calvin softly commented.
Kevin rolled his eyes at him and replied, "As I said, I wasn't the one who brought them here! In fact, if they weren't useful to me in keeping the order in this school then I would've already annihilated them!"
"Well, can you do it now? Can you annihilate them?" Calvin snapped right at Kevin.
"Uh... Well, I was talking about myself in the past..."
"Several years have passed since then and my powers had considerably weakened. I may be able to take on one of them, but two? Not a chance." Kevin revealed a wronged look on his face, but he still coldly snorted out of disdain at the end of his sentence.
"Oh, really? You can take on one of them? In that case, I'll give one of them for you to handle. You'll take the Moonwraith, while I take the Bloodwraith. How about it? A deal?" Calvin teasingly said.
Kevin froze and lifted a bitter smile.
He was only bragging when he said that he could take on one of those Specters on his own in his current condition.
Shouldn't he be able to detect that I was only bragging with how observant he is?
Could it be that he's purposely doing this to me?
To humiliate me?!
Kevin's eyes dangerously narrowed.
But his eyes glittered in joy when he realized that Calvin had not added a secret on the Notebook of Secrets That Will Destroy Your Life.
He swiftly capitalized on that fact to...
"You still haven't written an earth-shattering secret on the notebook! Do you know the consequences of not writing a secret and ignoring my warnings? Hmmph! I will be able to take over your soul!"
... change the topic.
"Oh! Dang, I almost forgot." Calvin scribbled some words on the ancient notebook.
His words turned serious as he went ahead and confirmed some of the theories that he had using the notebook.
[Fivecent does human trafficking of children on Earth.]
The words shimmered with a silvery-white light for a moment before it temporarily vanished. When it reappeared, the word, "Verified" was written after the comma of the sentence.
Calvin's expression immediately turned serious.
"Damn those bastards..." He clenched his fists and his eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
But he knew that getting angry right now wouldn't bring him anywhere.
In fact, it would just be a waste of time and would only give him unnecessary worries. At this moment, what he must do was to complete his final phase, fake his death, and reach the nearest civilization in Las Felipinas once he was out of this place.
Only when these goals were completed could he make some plans on how he could expose Fivecent.
For now, he had no business thinking about how he could reveal Fivecent's dirt.
He had far more important things to do.
Opening the small notebook that Calvin had in his pocket, he started writing all the details that he knew about Moonwraiths and Bloodwraiths.
