Chapter 11 - Mr. Westly House Part 1

The shape of the Westly house may look like an ordinary mansion at first glance. But if you look further, there are a few oddities. Like some windows protruding in some places, or even you can see that there are several doors on the upper floors that are connected to the outside of the house. Does the house to confuse ghosts need to make such things?

After they arrived in front of the Westly's house, one by one they got off the horse carriage.

"Welcome to the Westly residence, Mr. William and Miss Annabelle. Come on. Let's go in first."

When he said this, the young master didn't say a word, he didn't even try to brag about the house belonging to his ancestor that he really wanted to protect. Instead his face turned a little pale, it seemed that seeing his own house reminded him of the terrible terror he had personally experienced here.

Alfred then led them into the Westly family Mansion through a small gate that was there to enter the garden which was quite small in size, compared to William's mansion garden. Because the size of the garden is not too big, there are only a few trees, small plants, and flowers planted here.

Because the size of the garden is not too big, the distance between the existing gates to the main house after passing through the garden is less than 1 minute. Maybe most of the existing land is used for building houses, so that the remaining land for building garden is only a little left.

This was a bit conspicuous compared to the manor house next door, where they had a large building and a large garden as well. But of course the Westly family home is the largest in the neighborhood.

Annabelle and William walked into the Westly family garden yard after being invited in by Alfred. When they go inside, they start to feel quite a strange energy there.

"Master the energy in here is quite large. It feels quite strange that there is this much energy here and it is only being felt now."

"Yeah, it's very strange that there is a power spot with this kind of power in the city and the energy is only felt when we set foot in this place."

"What is it Mr. William, Miss Annabelle?"

Alfred stopped in his tracks, because William and Annabelle had stopped and they were whispering when they said that.

"We immediately felt awkward when we just entered this place Alfred. Even though it wasn't a problem outside the house, but as soon as I entered the yard this strange feeling was immediately felt and was quite strong."

"Oh, I see? We didn't feel any difference. It's just that more and more horrors are happening here, so there's a little bit of fear when you see this house at home."

Suddenly there was something beside the end of this house, it was like seeing something that was out of the corner of our eyes because everyone who was there turned to where the thing was moving and then disappeared. I don't know if Alfred and the young master could see it at a glance.

But Annabelle and I can certainly see that there was the ghost of a person in battle clothes whose clothes were pierced everywhere from gunshots that passed in that place. Then I signaled to Annabelle to pretend to ask them, to see if they could see it or not.

"What's wrong Mr. Westly and Mr. Alfred?"

"It felt like something was passing through there but it didn't seem like anything."

"This actually happens a lot in this house, it's just that I'm still not used to it."

"Maybe it was just a cat passing by."

William was trying not to panic and scare them by boasting about things like this, after all the ghost was harmless and only a little annoying with occasional appearances like this. So as much as possible he does not want to make his own client even more afraid of his own house.

"Isn't it a ghost?"

"Did young master see the ghost earlier?"

"No, it's just that if I heard your explanation from this afternoon, shouldn't it be natural for a ghost to pass by? Moreover, I often feel it at home too."

"If young master can't see ghosts, how can you distinguish that thing from the wind, or something like a cat?"

"Because I didn't see a cat there at all, and you also felt that there was no wind, right? So the most logical explanation just now is a ghost!"

"Ghosts themselves are actually against the logical words that young master said, and if young master can't explain ghosts scientifically. It's also not something to be considered logical right?"

"You..!! Are you just someone who pretends to be an expert in this kind of thing?! You can't even see ghosts yourself?! So what's the point of you coming here?!"

"Sir, calm down a bit. There was nothing, and maybe we just saw it wrong or maybe we were a little tensed by the air in this house."

Annabelle looked at her master, and sighed slightly. Because her master likes to make things worse by keep arguing with his own clients, and as usual she has to make things right.

"Mr. William's point was that you always assume without any evidence, it's not necessarily good, Mr. Westly. Indeed, as Mr. William and I explained earlier this afternoon, the possibility that there are many ghosts here is very large. But if we always assume like this, and always think of it as a ghost but don't know the truth. It only creates fear that you think yourself, but that's not necessarily true."

"But with strange circumstances like this.. Isn't it natural that I always think like that?"

"Neither Mr. Westly, it is precisely because this kind of situation puts constant mental stress on one. It can confuse a person's mind, leading to rash decisions, or believing that what he wants to see matches what he thinks."

"So you mean I'm delusional?"

"I didn't say..."

Before Annabelle could finish her words, William cut the conversation off.

"That's more or less the young master. I think you're too scared, that you can't think straight. Since we set foot here, you can't stop shaking can you?"

"FUCK! Am I scared in my own house?! I am the successor of one of the most respected families in this country! If I'm scared just because of things like this, then I don't deserve to be the bearer of the Westly name!"

Mr. Westly said that while again pointing his finger at William, it seemed that William's words had ignited the fire of emotion from within him.

"Come on, young master. Calm Down."

Then Alfred once again grabbed the shoulders of this young westly who was burning with emotion, trying to calm his master.

"Mr. William and Miss Annabelle. Can we at least get inside the house before deciding what to do next? Since it's getting late and the air is getting colder, so it's better if we warm up while discussing inside."

"I don't mind Alfred"

"Please show me the way, Mr. Alfred."

Then they arrived in front of the Westly Family's house which had several wooden pillars in front of it which were used to support the shape of the house which was quite large and majestic. The front decoration of this house looks like a normal house which has brown walls and windows in general, except for the door of their main house which has extraordinary wood carvings.

Alfred then knocked on the door and not long after, a middle-aged maid opened the door.
