Evolving Ghost System: Phantom Universe Expansion Pack

Chapter 23: Critically Effective Massage

[Current time: 12:04]

[Midnight Ruler is about to wear off]

"Die!" Harvard and the tree were neck and neck or bark and bark. He dodged a laser beam and a few exploding fruit and slashed at its branches.

-180, -300, -500, -600, -800(critical), -600

[King Oak's Tree is starting to recover.]

[King Oak's Tree has recovered!]

"No! What am I doing wrong!" Harvard jumped up to the top of the tree and dodged the spikey barbed branches. There had to be something he hadn't tried attacking yet right?

"Your time is up, human," The King Oak Tree said, "Your curse is wearing off. It looks like I won this battle today."

"Damn it! This is the only place I haven't stabbed," Harvard stabbed it in the thickest place on its body near the top of its head. "I'll be back tomorrow King Oak Tree! You just wait!"

[King Oak Tree's weakpoint has been found.]

[King Oak Tree has lost all reason.]

[King Oak Tree has spit a key out of its mouth.]

[King Oak Tree imagined its life flashing before its eyes.]

[King Oak Tree has died]

[Harvard has defeated King Oak Tree!]

[King Oak Tree will revive in 5 minutes!]

"We did it!" Harvest King smiled and kicked aside a foaming at the mouth Bomb Fruit. "We did it! Now let me take this lady back to my hotel! She fell asleep, haha!"

"Not in your wildest dreams" Harvard snatched the key from the ground and walked over to the chest. "You did absolutely nothing! This treasure better be for me!"

[You have the key to the Oak Chest]

[Would you like to open the chest?]

###

"Yes!" Harvard manually put the key in the chest. "Yes, I will open it myself, thank you!"

He opened it up and prayed something good would be inside. However, there was no golden light and the chest was kind of heavy. After a minute, he finally opened the lid.

"Heavy Chests are usually more valuable!" Harvest King smiled. "Let me see, man! I helped too!"

[You've discovered a small phantom, A Smoke Mirror Beast!]

[Smoke Mirror Beast] (Cursed)

[Level 25]

[Reputation: Takes lives in the areas he lingers.]

[Ability 1: Smokescreen: Creates a cloud of smoke that decreases visibility and annoys the hell out of people. Has a small chance of stunning small children]

[Ability 2: Ghost Reflection: Allows the Smoke Mirror Beast to become a shadow of another ghost for a minute]

[Ability 3 (Cursed): Shadow of Death: If the Smoke Mirror beast feels like he's about to die, he could explode everything around him for kilometers. ]

'So, if he ever felt threatened, he'd explode and kill us all. No wonder he's cursed! I'm leaving this thing in here!'

"It's so cute!" Lilac smiled and picked up the Smoke Mirror Beast. "I'll name him Smokey! Becuase he looks like a cloud of smoke with eyes!"

"Soft hands. Me like!" Smokey laughed and got hugged by Lilac. "Woohoo! Finally free! I thought King Yama would never let me out of there!"

[Smoke Mirror Beast is in an infatuated state.]

[You're currently safe]

[He's turning angry. Danger!]

"He's just a little cloud of smoke," Harvest King said and put pushed Smokey aside. "Damn it! There's nothing else in the box?"

"Oh, yeah there is! A level 27 Blade for me! Woohoo!"

"I-I want to kill him." Harvard pointed towards the exit. "Oh well, at least I can return the Quest and we can finally leave."

###

[Quest Update: Deliver Smokey to Central City]

[The Mayor has requested you take his daughter Lilac with you. She seems to be the only thing that can calm Smokey down.]

[Failure will result in the death of everything nearby you.]

"Wow, it really likes me," Lilac lied on her bed and smiled. Smokey snuggled next to her. He really looked like a grey smoke ball with two yellow eyes and occasional flashes of some substance.

When he got angry, a substance inside of him would heat up and he'd turn into a thermonuclear bomb. Yup, he'd literally cause a neuron to split inside of him and kill everything!

"Well, tomorrow will be a better day!" Harvard sighed and exited the Mayor's Mansion. "Wait, what happened to Tabitha? Oh no! I forgot about our Donkey too! What am I doing?!"

"Hehe, I reserved us a room," Tabitha road on top of the donkey with a smile. "Now come on! I give really great massages!"

###

"AHHHH! That hurts in a good way!" Harvard felt Tabitha's little hands digging deep into his muscular transparent back. He wanted to scream it felt so good and hurt so much. "AHHH! It's over 9000 times better than I expected!"

"Go to sleep! You didn't even buy us two separate rooms," Harvest King had become dirt poor because of Count Silvester having someone follow him and take his money every few hours. "All because I said something about a man's daughter, he thinks he can rob me!"

Knock! Knock!

"I'm sorry! I'm out of money! Come back tomorrow and I'll give you whatever you want!"

"It's me!" A familiar voice said, "Smokey wanted me to find you, Harvard. It said it likes us when we're together."

"What do you mean when we're together?" Harvard turned up and saw Tabitha jumping in the air. "Wait, what are you doing? No, not again!"

Boom!

[The massage was critically effective!]

[You've gained +1 Vitality for the next 5 minutes]

"Hoho! I'm done. That will be 1000 Lograms," Tabitha kicked Harvard in the back. "Pay up or I'll bring in the donkey."

"Hehe, looks like fun. Now what do you want me to do Smokey?"

"Get on the bed with Harvard and cuddle with him. I'll be on your side! It'll be just like my mother and father used to do!"

[Smokey is serious. Don't do it and he may kill everyone you love.]

"Oh, they used to kiss before bed! Make it happen, or I don't know what I'll dream about. I might go Kaboom and kill all your motha fudding asses."
