Chapter 25 - Mirewood Haunted House-Part 1

On Saturday, before getting ready to leave, Belle strategically uses the Ghost Points. He has 280 of them which can easily buy many items. He looked over the prices for upgrading the weapons, the axe cost 100 points, the cleaver cost 10, the Ghost Capsule cost 100, and the kusarigama cost 20 points. There were also the items in the store but Belle thought it would be better to save those for the moment, if he didn't have enough money for something he needed then and there they could be in trouble. He spent 20 points on the kusarigama, 50 on the cleaver, and 100 on the axe. Those items were his most combat-oriented items and it would be better to upgrade them. 

[Holy Fire Kusarigama: A weapon to truly make sinners shudder with fear, if you have committed a grave sin such as murder then the fires of Hell will burn you. The kusarigama will burn any ghost who has committed murder or harmed a human on purpose, the wound doesn't heal.] 

[Unique Axe: This axe is something not easily found anywhere else, its abilities are powerful and strange. People who stare directly at the axe may even experience hallucinations. The axe can now siphon away miasma to use for later in a strike.] 

[Bloody Cleaver: This cleaver is covered in blood, whether it is the blood of animals or something else is unknown. A loyal cleaver that always returns to its owner, all it takes is a splash of blood. Once you put a drop of blood on this cleaver it will regard you as its owner and if you throw it it will always return to your hand.] 

The new abilities of the weapons were all unique, Belle was especially interested in the kusarigama, but since he didn't know how to use it, he could only wait. He planned to give it to Liz tonight, even if she didn't know how to use it, it was better to have something than nothing. 

"Are you ready? Get your lazy ass moving we need to go!" Liz bursts into his room, she's practically bouncing against the walls. 

"What's up with you? Why are you so excited?" Belle questions. 

"You see, I've always wanted to go to a haunted house, but the ones I've gone to have always been boring as hell, but this one is actually haunted!" She exclaims. 

"That's a fucking lie you couldn't give less of a shit." Belle deadpans. 

"Okay fine, I just want to meet this friend of yours, so let's go." She urges again. Belle gets up from his bed and grabs the camera, then he gets in the car with Liz. The drive isn't very long and they talk about a few meaningless things before arriving. When they get there, Leslie is already waiting. 

"Hey! Leslie, this is my friend Liz." Belle introduces. 

"Nice to meet you, my name is Leslie and this is Luna." Leslie offers a handshake to Liz and introduces the ghost behind him. 

"Nice to officially meet you both." Liz smiles. 

"Oh yeah, you were at the mall that one time," Leslie says. 

"Mhm, I hope everything has been going well for you." Liz comforts. 

"Yep, I have a nice job now and new friends, although I have been plagued with a nuisance." Leslie's face visibly darkens at the last words. 

"I hope you aren't talking about me, I have been nothing but courteous in your home." Luna cuts in.

"Of course, I'm talking about you! You have a high and mighty attitude, I'm not your servant, and you keep telling Lou strange things when I'm not looking." Leslie argues. 

"I have not! You're lying!" Luna argues back. They continue to do this for a few minutes as Belle and Liz watch on the side. 

"They get along pretty well," Liz whispers to Belle.

"Yeah, I didn't think it would end up like this when I sent her home with him, but it seems to be fine." Belle chuckles. While the two are arguing Belle takes the chance to look around the location, the haunted house is set up in the middle of an empty field, they seem to have used an abandoned farm and dressed it up to look like a house. There wasn't much indication of what the experience would be like from the outside but there was a slight bit of miasma billowing from the house. The door to the house suddenly opens and a man walks out. Luna and Leslie stop arguing upon noticing him walking toward them.

"Are you guys here to experience the haunted house?" The man asks.

"Yep," Belle answers.

"Oh cool, I'm David, nice to meet you all, you guys must be the streamer, right?" He questions.

"Uh-huh, is anybody else here tonight?" Belle asks.

"Nope, just you guys, we don't really get much business anymore," Davide says sheepishly. 

"That's fine, if all goes well you might get some more business." Belle encourages.

"Right, come this way and we'll get started, you just enter through those doors and follow the arrows on the ground. I ask that you please don't harm any of the employees if you can." Davide explains. He walks them up to the doors and opens them, letting them through before closing them behind the group. 

[Mission Details: Find the cursed object, and defeat the evil spirit inside the cursed object.]

[Objects Found: 0/1]

[Evil Spirits Defeated: 0/1]

A cursed object? Belle had never heard of it before but it seems this object is what's haunting this haunted house, it has to be something they bring with them to every location. 

"I'm going to start the stream, everyone," Belle tells the others. He presses the button to start streaming and does an introduction all while glancing around the room. The lobby of the haunted house has three doors and two staircases. The staircases are boarded off and the arrows only point toward the door in front of them. Some fog is rolling across the ground and a cool breeze sweeps past him. The atmosphere inside was dark, but it wasn't anything Belle hadn't dealt with before.
