Elvira was sure that the man was neither part of the police nor a curious commoner because there was no way the man with the arm covered in strange tattoos was allowed into the noble's estate. Moreover, the man was wearing ancient clothes that were used hundreds of years ago.
The silver-haired man went around and looked at each body bag that was evacuated by the police as if he was confirming something. But Elvira who continued to stare at him made the silver-haired man realize that he was being watched.
Luckily she wasn't lost in thought and could notice him staring. 'Ugh, did he see me?' She quickly looked down and tried as calmly as possible not to look suspicious.
Her guess that the man was an evil spirit had scared her a little and made her hands shiver a little. But she still hesitated because Evil Spirits shouldn't have human-like characteristics.
"Miss, miss... Can you hear me?" A soft clapping immediately made Elvira out of her train of thought.
She gasped slightly and immediately answered Mr. Marcus' question with a slight stutter. Being too busy finding answers about the silver-haired man made her ignore everything around her. "E-uh, what's wrong?!"
Mr Marcus looked relieved to see Elvira was fine and still in a conscious state before looking like she had lost consciousness.
"No, I'm just making sure that the Evil Spirit isn't attacking you. While you're here, it's best not to daydream and try to keep thinking about something so your mind doesn't go blank." Even though she looks fine, Miss Elvira has shown signs of being disturbed by the Evil Spirit. This made Mr Marcus a little worried and immediately gave advice.
"No, I wasn't daydreaming... I was just thinking about..." Curious as to what the silver-haired man was doing after noticing her gaze, she dared to peek at the silver-haired man again. However, she was really surprised because the man had disappeared from his place and could not be found in the courtyard of the mansion.
'How can he leave so fast?' There are many questions in her mind about the mysterious man. If he really is an evil spirit, what is he doing by staring at each corpse bag.
"About what?" Mr. Marcus, who was worried, looked directly at Elvira's gaze. However, it was empty there and only the police were on duty.
"...Mr Marcus, can you see the true form of the Evi Spirit? What is it like?" Trying to find out what the silver-haired man was doing made she want to confirm something.
"They have half-human and half-animal features. To a novice sorcerer's eyes they look like a floating mass of black smoke... Eh, why are you suddenly asking like that, don't tell me you can already see it?" Mr Marcus asked with a slightly surprised face.
In the sorcerer world only people with high spiritual power can see the true form of Evil Spirits. But for royal princesses, it wouldn't be a strange occurrence if they were able to see Evil Spirits even though they hadn't received the Blessing.
"Young Miss is in danger!! This is serious, I have to find a way to protect her. Rifles, stun guns... no, they're tools to immobilize humans... is there anything that can immobilize Evil Spirits?" Hearing Mr Marcus' suspicions made Julian panic and mumble to find a way to protect his young miss.
"Don't be so panicked, Mr Butler. Being able to see Evil Spirits is natural for royal princesses, but it also depends on the princess's strength... After hearing your question, I believe that you only saw them recently?" Mr. Marcus stroked his chin and looked closer at Elvira.
"No, I haven't been able to see them. It's just that I've only slightly felt their presence through the atmosphere. This first happened when I first entered the gift room, I felt a threat from a doll." The disappearance of the mysterious silver-haired man made Elvira remember the girl doll who was possessed by the Evil Spirit. Because she just realized that the corpse brought by the police did not give off a black aura like what she found.
"Can you show it to me?" Feeling attracted to the instincts of a royal princess, Mr. Marcus wanted to confirm her words.
"Okay, follow me. Come on, Eliza!" Elvira rushed to enter the mansion, but she saw her friend just standing beside the car without looking like she wanted to accompany her.
Eliza walked up to Elvira and whispered softly. "Em, I'll wait here. I'm a little scared of corpses."
"Even though before you were cool you promised to protect me, but who would have thought that you would even be afraid of a dead human body." With a sarcastic tone, she looked at Eliza with a sad look.
Hearing Elvira's statement immediately made Eliza's heart feel sliced. Even though a few minutes ago she had promised her best friend to be her protector, but she didn't realize that her cowardly words had broken her promise.
"I take back what I said earlier. The brave Eliza is already by your side!" Eliza took a deep breath and immediately changed her gaze to that of a knight.
"Yay, this is the new Eliza I know!" Smiling, Elvira immediately led Calvin and Mr. Marcus to the cursed doll.
They walked past the police line that had been set up around the gift storage room. All the gift boxes that had previously been neatly wrapped were now completely open and there were bloodstains dripping on the carpet.
"Hey, why is the carpet now stained with blood and smells bad." Eliza who was hiding on Elvira's back immediately put her face on Elvira's neck when she saw the bloodstains.
