Chereads / BOYS OF A STAR / Chapter 44 - Chapter 44

Chapter 44 - Chapter 44

"Tell them about what?" I asked, and Seanyung, Bomyu, and Paikek got confused as they couldn't hear the voices.

"It's me, you remember my name?" Purple-haired ghost girl from the Komorebi Cafe appeared right in front of me, in a long white dress. Her transparent body was impossible for me to forget.

"You tricked us! Where is the book!" I shouted at her.

She chuckled as her hair fell onto her face. And, a magical wand appeared in her hand which had a star symbol on it.

"Now I can see her." Paikek widened his eyes when he noticed the ghost girl. Accordingly, Bomyu and Seanyung picked up their wands and pointed them against the ghost.

"Four of you are not ready for the moment." She chuckled, as she generated a purple magical surge, pushing me and my friends to the concrete ground. My back and my arms started hurting from hitting to the ground.

Her hair flew against the wind, as she tilted her head up to the shady night sky.

"What do you want from us?" I tried to speak in pain as there were bruises on my arms and back.

"I want the book, the star book! Give it to me or you will die! I know you have it." She played with a curl of her transparent hair.

"No, I don't know where that is. But if you really want to know, you should help us." I proposed, offering my hand do her.

"Why would I help a bunch of stupid boys who never will find their friend Yonsan?" She gibed an irritating way.

"Dont say his name again!" Bomyu interjected, stepping forward.

"Yeah, we tried our best to find Yonsan. Besides, it's none of your business." Seanyung added.

"You all don't know who you are." The ghost girl snickered out loud as she continued; "The reason that stars are disappearing is you!"

"She is lying!" Bomyu interjected in a low tone.

"How are we the reason that the stars disappeared?" I questioned, lifting my eyebrows.

She turned around and started walking to the other side of the bridge, while she was laughing for no reason. She lifted her magical wand upwards to the sky.

She generated a magical lightning bolt up to the sky, enlightening the darkness of the night. A raging wind began blowing across the bridge in a tremendous acceleration.

"What are you doing?" I shouted as the sound of the wind got louder. At the same time, Bomyu and Paikek got behind me, and Seanyung walked towards the girl as the wind blew onto us.

"I am doing the thing you should've been doing." She laughed in screams loudly as the lightning stroke back at her, but it didn't hurt her because she was transparent.

The star left on the sky slowly dimmed as a wave of energy circulated the ghost girl. She stopped laughing but her screams continued echoing while she turned her eyes on me.

The last star remaining disappeared, leaving the sky blank, buried in darkness. It was the last one and the most precious one. However, its twinkle ended by the Komorebi cafe ghost.

"What did you do?" I got shocked and I advanced towards her with my wand.

"I killed a star." Ghost girl chuckled as she held her wand against me.

"Shut up!" I pointed my magical wand towards her firing a magical beam onto her.

She shook her wand against the magical beam that I unleashed, creating a wave of magic. Her magical wave met mine in the middle. While both magic rays pushed each other, I tried held my wand stable, to make my spell stronger. But, she was already laughing because she had something in her mind.

Suddenly, she opened her arms letting my magic ray hit her. However, it only passed throughout her transparent body while she snickered.

Her eyes began glimmering as she blinked, creating another lightning wave. She turned her hands towards me and my friends, changing the direction of the lightning bolt onto us.

"No! Stop it!" Seanyung rapidly got in front of me, preventing the lightning to hit me, while Bomyu and Paikek were hiding behind me. By the effect of the lightning, Seanyung fell over the ground.

"Seanyung, are you okay?" I rushed next to him, kneeled down and I put my finger on his neck, checking his pulse. It was okay, he was alive but it was noticeable that he was hurting as he was closing his eyes.

"You all don't know how to do magic." Ghost girl walked next to me, as she giggled.

"Leave us alone." I implored while watery tears fell from my eyes.

"I will never leave you alone."

"He said leave us alone!" Bomyu put in, speaking in a low voice.

Ghost girl walked onto me, putting her hand on my forehead. Rapidly, it caused me to shut my eyes, I wasn't able to see anything but just blank darkness. However, I was feeling a tremendous pain coming deep from my chest to neck. It became hard for me to breath.

Even though I couldn't see, I could heard her voice saying;

"Now it's time for you to know the truth."
