Hearing the heavy steps out the bedroom, Pro frowned in caution. While he was watching the police from the window, he noticed a human shadow hidden in one of the small alleyway across the street.
After the police left, Pro payed careful attention to that alleyway and finally saw a man in black robe walk out of it. Pro knew that man wasn't good news as he saw a faint glow in his eyes from afar. Hearing the footsteps outside the bedroom, Pro knew he was the target of that man.
"The man may be one of those on the hidden side with super powers. At least he should have some sort of eye powers, and he might be able to see me even if I am not materialized," Pro concluded as planned to hide first and see what the man can do.
The man strolled into the living room and glanced at the messy furnishing. His eyes glowed and swiftly focused on the bathroom, "That is where the yin qi is, so the spirit will most likely be in there. Based on the density of the yin qi, it should at least be a baleful spirit, as expected."
The man calmly walked into the bathroom and glanced around.
"The mirror is gone? So, it's not a common possession object, but a special one. What could be the spirit's possession object?" the man muttered as he furrowed his brow while glancing around in the bathroom.
Although his eyes saw yin qi gathering on the toilet, the man simply glanced over it as he had never heard of a ghost who possessed a toilet, but weirdly, he saw no other possession objects inside the bathroom.
"Hmm? Could it be that its possession object is in the bedroom?" the man concluded then walked out of the bathroom.
Hearing him leave, Pro entered the bathroom through the wall. He sneakily peeked out from the bathroom doorway. Although he planned to play safe at first, now the man is targeting the bedroom. Alice is still in there, and can't be moved easily. It's best that the man never gets into the bedroom. Pro then activated
The man was currently staring at the door to the bedroom with a frown. It was locked from the inside. After pondering a bit, the man muttered with a confident grin, "It must be in here."
He then took out the rusted key and stuck it into the bedroom door way. With a twist, he heard the bedroom door unlock. He pulled the key out and put it away. He waited for the door to open, but realized that it was still closed!
"Huh? Did the spirit block the other side of the door?" the man frowned in thought before he sneered, "If you think that can stop me, that is naive."
The man gave the door a hard kick, slamming it against the wardrobe and causing the wardrobe to shake violently. Pro breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the wardrobe didn't topple over, "Fortunately I filled it with clothes so it's heavy enough to stand sturdy."
After his kick, the man sneered as he he heard a thud made from hitting wooden containers that are hollow on the inside, "So there's probably some wardrobe or closet of some sort on the other side. No matter. As long as it's not made of metal, it can't stop me."
The man then raised his right hand where he was wearing a glove attached with five small, mechanical boxes. The man pressed a button on the center of the glove's back.
Shing! Five long, black nails popped out of the mechanical boxes, transforming the man's right hand into something similar to wolverine claws; however, the claws of this hand had vague black mist leaking out of it and a closer look will reveal that it was formed from layers of peeled off human nails attached to each other!
Staring at the door, the man swiped his right hand at it. The claw cut through the door along with the back of the wardrobe as if they were tofu, opening a small tear with pieces of shredded clothes falling out of it.
The man chuckled happily as he was about to continue, but he suddenly froze for a bit as he muttered, "Huh? Why do I want to go the toilet right now?"
He felt his butt hole clench and he frowned. He had soaked his body in yin oil for 49 days to condense a yin body in preparation for promotion. Logically, he should not have most of the human needs anymore, especially since he can feed off of yin qi to survive.
After a little more thought, the man sneered, "Curse? Is this the ability of this baleful spirit. Not bad, as expected of a special variant, but let's see if your curse takes effect first or I break in and destroy your possession object first!"
With that, the man held in what needed to come out and smashed his claws at the door again, causing the tear in the door to grow even larger.
Meanwhile, Pro began to sweat a little bit in the bedroom as he realized for the first time that his curse can be resisted. As if that wasn't bad enough, the system message was popping up with warnings.
[Warning! The barrier to host's domain has been breached! It will cost 10 life points to repair the barrier. Consume life points to repair the barrier?]
[Warning! The barrier to host's domain has been breached! It will cost 20 life points to repair the barrier. Consume life points to repair the barrier?]
[Warning! The barrier to host's domain has been breached! It will cost 40 life points to repair the barrier. Host has insufficient life points to repair the barrier. Failure to repair the domain barrier will prevent host from expanding the domain in the future!]
Seeing the warnings, Pro gritted his teeth as he stuck his head through the wall. Glaring at the man who sneered back at him with glowing eyes, Pro activated
"Hahaha! So you ARE here! Don't think you can hide forever, I will break in eventually!" the man's laughter resounded from outside.
[Warning! The barrier to host's domain has been breached! It will cost 60 life points to repair the barrier ...]
[Warning! The barrier ...]
As the man sliced the door two more times, a hole large enough for a human to crawl in was opened up. The man grinned as he prepared to crawl in. Sticking his arm with the claw through to clear the way, the man stuck his upper body through the hole and saw the inside of the room.
With a glance, he noticed a spirit laying on the bed, but was unable to see its face. However, seeing that, he said with a wicked smile, "So there you are!"
The man then tried to squeeze his lower half in, but his butt hole suddenly clenched even tighter as his face paled, "W-what?!"
The man felt as if something was going to burst out of his butt hole in the next second, but it felt like it was stuck in there and refused to come out! A sudden surge of pain struck the man's stomach as he felt is squeeze tight in discomfort.
"W-What the sh*t is this?! Is this the spirit's curse?! What kind of bullsh*t curse is this?!" the man growled as sweat rolled down his face, "Uggg!"
The man moaned and tried to squeeze out the thing that he felt was stuck in his stomach, but it refused to leave no matter how hard he tried!
The man took many deep breathes as he glared at the spirit on the bed, "Huhuhu! So what if this is painful! I have experienced worst pain! Watch me screw you up after I catch you, and after I enslave you, I will make sure you suffer from ten times the pain I suffer now you b*tch!"
As the man prepared to crawl in again, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, "Huh?"
Outside the bedroom door where half the lower half of the man's body resided, Pro had materialized into physical form. In his hands, he held a kitchen knife, the lucky knife that was chosen by the lucky kid that survived this building.
Pro sneered as he glanced at the behind of the man, "Heh! Taste my ultimate move, a thousand years of pain!"
Aiming at the man's butt hole, Pro drove the knife deep into it. Puff!
"AHHHHHH!" the man screamed in pain from the other side, "YOU B*TCH! HOW DARE YOU!"
Pro sneered, "Still can talk eh? How about this then?"
Pro twisted the knife in a full 360 degrees while stirring it around as well.
"AHHHH! AHHH! SH*T!!!" the man howled and kicked one of his feet out.
Pro felt a heavy force hitting him, causing him to fly back and hit the wall separating the kitchen from the living room. Pro glanced down and saw a shoe print on his stomach with black mist defusing off of it. He furrowed his brows in pain as he stared at the boots of the man, knowing they weren't normal shoes.
Pro got up and cautiously approached the man from the side as he watched the man struggle to crawl back out. Pro reached out his hands and grabbed the handle of the knife still stuck in the butt hole. He swiftly pulled it out causing the man to howl in pain once more. Then, aiming at the back of the man's legs, Pro slammed the knife down, piercing right through the bones and causing the man to howl in pain.
Pro backed off as he stared at his hands while admiring his strength, "It seems that there are other benefits from being in physical form."
Pro then stared at the man who was thrashing the leg that was fine around while cursing profanity in pain. He swiftly went to the kitchen and grabbed two more knives, came back, "Everything in this world need balance."
With that, Pro slammed the knife into the man's other leg. With a howl of pain, the man flipped his body over within the hole. He then began to wave his claw frantically to cut open the hole even further, "YOU F*CKER! I SWEAR I WILL BURN YOUR SOUL AND MAKE IT SUFFER FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE!"
Ignoring the man glaring at him through the wall, Pro sneered as he glanced down at his new target, "Well, well, what do we have here."
The man felt a chill in his lower body as his face paled, "DON'T YOU DARE!"
PUFF! Pro brought the knife down hard. With extreme precision, the knife pierced through the most important part of a man, the precious little third brother between the legs.
"AHHHHHH~" the man howled and thrashed around violently before passing out in pain.
Splat! With the relaxation of his muscles, the load in his stomach finally came out along with a pool of blood. Pro knew he didn't have much time left in physical form, so he swiftly pulled the knife out from the man's little brother, causing the man to twitch unconsciously. Pro then aimed at the man's throat through the wider opening and smashed the knife down.
Puff! The man's eyes snapped opened wide as he glared at Pro until it became blood-shot. His body twitched violently a couple of times as he opened his mouth in attempt to yell, but no sound came out. Then, the man's body went limp.
[Host has killed a living being with a yin body in host's domain. Absorbing remains and mysterious objects ...]
Pro breathed a sigh of relief, and with the remaining time of his physical materialization, Pro shoved the dead man's body through the hole completely before he returned to a translucent state, where a onslaught of weakness struck him. Pro hurriedly dived back into his domain before his spirit dissipated.
Similar to the physical materialization state, the level up from low-level to mid-level baleful spirit increased his time that he can stay outside of his domain by 1 minutes. Otherwise, his spirit would have dissipated already.
Even so, now he had to deal with the weakness from both the physical materialization and spirit dissipation. Pro hurriedly went to the toilet and helplessly dived in to recover, in fear that even a tiny bit of sunlight might dissipate his weak soul.
