Chapter 28 - ♧Race For The Enslaved♧

Kole pushed Neju out of the way and asked, "A raid for what?" The lion said, "My real wife has been taken away by a Blackmarketer. He took her to a place I've never seen before, so I need all of the help I can get." Neju said, "Oh. Let's go then." Kole asked him, "Why?" Neju replied, "I have a bad feeling about this."

A few moments later, Kole, with Neju on his back, ran after the lion and the wolf pups to a dark and suspicious looking building. Neju said, "I knew it. There's Soul Reapers and Blackmarketers enslaving souls." Kole gasped, and the lion shouted, "Damn it! This is all my fault! If only I was stronger!" Neju said, "There's no point in blaming yourself."

Kole growled and said, "Let's save them!" Kole ran to the door, and busted it down. There were a few shadows in the building, and they all started rushing to the front door. With bloodlust filling the already putrid air, it made the place more sickening than it looks. Neju walked in front and said, "I'm no Soul Animal, but I am a Ghostcatcher."

An eerie light came from the pupils of Neju's eyes, and the black figures froze. The bloodlust was replaced with fear, and the shadows ran away. Kole looked down at Neju. and he said, "What was that?" Neju said, "Imitation. You can use your power to imitate ghosts and Soul Animals." The lion roared and said, "We don't have time for lessons! We need to find my lioness!"

Neju huffed and said, "Fine. Let's go!" Neju ran in front, and Kole and the lion followed. The lion told the wolf pups to stay outside and hide from the Soul Reapers. The three rushed through the building with no trouble at all. Neju said, "The Soul Reapers may be contacting their superiors. We must hurry!" Kole shouted, "I found her!" The lion and Neju stopped and looked at the door Koke stopped at.

"Splendid job, Kole!" Neju said. The lion broke down the door and shouted, "Danielle!" After a few seconds, a feminine voice said, "Wayne!?" Neju said, "What kind of lion is named "Wayne"? Names for lions are supposed to be powerful!" Wayne snorted and said, "That doesn't matter! Let's free my wife and the others!"

The three rushed in and started releasing the imprisoned souls. After they were released, Neju said, "Can we be done with this ridiculous sidequest? My bones are starting to ache!" Wayne said, "I forgot that you were an old cat. You seem different from many elders." Neju puffed up his chest and said, "I have to live longer for my wife. She does have an eternity to live after all."

Danielle said, "Aw.. that's so sweet!" Kole said, "Guys! We have a problem!" Everyone turned to the door and saw multiple Soul Reapers. Neju did his glare again, but only a majority of them fled away. Neju said, "Kole, meet the elite Soul Reapers in a shit organization like this." Neju stepped up and stayed silent. A Soul Reaper said, "You're time is up, mortals... prepare for death..."

Neju stayed silent. The Soul Reapers were getting closer, but all of a sudden, a huge hole was made in the wall. All of the souls escaped out of the hole to the outside, including Wayne and Danielle. Kole shouted, "Goodbye you guys!" Neju said, "See you never again, bitches!" Suddenly, Kole and Neju were back in the Overworld.

They appeared at the top of a small demolished building near Cat City. Neju sighed and said, "Forget your training. I'm too tired."
