Sea's Body

In the fireplace room, the stench still lingered, but not as bad as when Felix came with Bella at that time.

But the scent felt so real, that Madam Anyelir stopped the rarity. She looked around again while stroking the hair of her spirit doll.

"Anong, do you feel something?" asked Madam Anyelir at the thing in her arms.

"What's the matter, Madam?" Carlos asked.

"That fireplace!" Madam Anyelir pointed to the place she was referring to.

"Anything with that fireplace?" asked a surprised Carlos.

But Felix immediately remembered Alice's words long before the woman killed Caroline.

Alice once said that Sea and Clara led her into the fireplace room.

Alice also said that the two of them seemed to want to show something in that space.

Felix did not believe what Alice said at that time, because everything was just Alice's dream. And that doesn't mean anything.

But after hearing Madam Anyelir's words about the fireplace, Felix began to believe that Alice's dream was a sign, that there was something in the fireplace.

"Madam, is Sea's body there?" Felix asked spontaneously.

Instantly Madam Anyelir and Carlos turned to Felix.

Madam Anyelir sighed for a moment.

"Why don't you go check the inside of the fireplace?" she said.

"You mean we have to go inside that smelly fireplace?" asked Carlos, looking object.

"Yes!" said Madam Anyelir.

Felix and Carlos looked at each other, they seemed hesitant to go in and examine the hole. What's more, the longer the stench, the more piercing it feels.

To be honest they weren't ready to see Sea's corpse, which must have looked scary and unimaginable.

"Come on! What are you waiting for! Come on in!" said Madam Anyelir.

Then the two of them hurriedly began to enter the pit of the hearth and examined every corner.

Suddenly the two of them looked up in unison when their faces fell on the maggots that were still alive.

The fireplace chimney was stuffed with something so no air could get in.

Felix and Carlos looked at each other again, their eyes met with a frightened look on their faces.

"S-She-she, it's over there!" said Felix who suddenly stuttered and stammered.

"A-a-are you sure it's Sea's body?" asked Carlos in a stuttering voice too.

"If he's not Sea who else!" said Felix.

"Could be someone else, right?" asked Carlos.

"It can't be anyone else! It's Sea's corpse!" said Felix.

"How can you be sure?"

"Take it quickly!" said Felix.

"H-how?" asked Carlos, "to be honest I'm so disgusted," he mumbled with narrowed eyes and furrowed brows.

"Forget your disgust, Carlos! Let's do it for Alice!" said Felix.

Finally, they worked together to remove Sea's body from the fireplace.

It was in a pinch, and it was very difficult to get it out. Plus the body was already damaged, some of the flesh had been crushed from rotting.

Felix and Carlos endured all their fear and disgust to get Sea out.

The chimneys are so small, that they have to work hard.

"Ah, I really can't understand why that woman could fit in such a small hole?" Carlos muttered.

"Ah, never mind! Don't think about anything else! Let's pull it!" Felix shouted at Carlos.

Finally, they managed to get the body out, but some parts of the body were broken when pulled. Maybe it was because she had been in that hole for so long that her body became fragile.

After the body had managed to get down, Felix and Carlos came out of the room and vomited profusely.

Meanwhile, Madam Anyelir was still standing and staring at the body with unfathomable eyes.

I don't know what the woman was thinking.

A few seconds later Madam Anyelir saw a glimpse of a small child's shadow.

It was Clara, the little girl who wanted to say something to Madam Anyelir.

And the middle-aged woman complied with Clara's invitation. She closed her eyes with his hand still holding the doll, and before long he began to enter another realm.

Carlos and Felix looked surprised to see Madam Anyelir who was still silent for a moment with their eyes closed.

"Shhh, what's she doing, anyway?" Carlos whispered in Felix's ear.

"Just shut up!" said Felix.

"But, what should we do next?" Carlos asked.

"We've been waiting for her to finish meditating!" Felix replied.

"Oh, so she's meditating?" Carlos nodded in understanding.

And they sat in silence while waiting for the woman to speak again and then give the next instruction.

While Madam Anyelir was already in another realm, she encountered Clara who was standing at the corner of the wall. The place is still the same, namely Sea's house.

It's just that the state of her house is very different from now.

Sea's house looks neat and clean, not dirty and filled with spiders like now.

"Here! Don't be afraid," said Madam Anyelir.

Then Clara approached with somewhat hesitant steps.

"Come here, I'm not a bad person," said Madam Anyelir.

After approaching, Madam Anyelir touched Clara's face.

"Is there anything you want to say?" she asked in a soft voice.

Clara answered with a nod of her head.

"What do you want to talk about?"

Clara was still silent, then Madam Anyelir returned to her sentence again, "let's just say it, son. Don't hesitate," said Madam Anyelir.

Slowly Clara started to get the words out of her mouth.

"Please, have a proper funeral service for my mother. I don't want her to become an evil demon!" said Clara.

"Only that?" asked Madam Anyelir, Clara replied with another nod.

"All right, I'll try to comply with your request, Clara," said Madam Anyelir. Then the woman was about to leave Clara and return to her body again, but someone suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Where are you going?" shouted the woman to Madam Anyelir.

"Sea!" cried Madam Anyelir with a look of shock on her face.

Sea looked angry to see the woman's arrival.

"What are you doing here?" Sea's eyes were so sharp, "Why are you being presumptuous?!" she shouted. Then she pushed Madam Anyelir's body to the ground.

"Enough of you meddling in my business! Or I'll kill you!" Sea threatened Madam Anyelir.

"Sea, I just came here to treat your body well!" said Madam Anyelir.

"No need! And you don't need to get me out of hiding either!" snapped Sea.

"Yes, but why? Weren't you in a lot of pain there?" asked Madam Anyelir.

"No! I'm not in pain! This is my home and I'll be here forever!" said Sea.
