Chapter 548 Where’s My Dad?
It was the middle of the night, and the amusement park was in full swing. Things only started quieting down much later.
Lilly was sitting on the grass, feeling the sea breeze.
The little girl sat next to her, not making a sound.
The other ghosts, however, stared at a newcomer in confusion. “Who’s this?”
A round of rides later, there was now another ghost?
It looked such a mess, too!
The ghost remained silent, not saying a word.
The ghost bride frowned. “Why does that face look so familiar…”
The unlucky ghost rubbed his nose. “That nose is like mine.”
The harem spirit said, “Hey, that chest! That’s my chest…”
It turned out that that wasn’t a new ghost, but it was just formed out of the spare parts of the other ghosts…
And so the ghosts scrambled to collect their parts.
“Harem, these are your eyebrows…”
“Oh my… I’ve finally got my face back.”
“Whose pupils are these? They’re stuck on my head!”
The scene was in chaos.
Lilly lay down on the grass, satisfied. “That was so fun!”
Something seemed to be missing, though.
Lilly made a sound of confusion. “Where’s my Dad?”
Pablo: …
Ha. At least you still remembered your father.
Just then, a figure appeared in the distance.
His shadow dragged on long and thin under the streetlights.
He was bent at the waist, his chest heaving as he panted heavily.
Blake was leaning on the streetlights as he stumbled along, a doll in his hands..
The Hell Ruler Palace was on his head like a safety hat, the front door swinging open to reveal his face.
Blake wanted to say something, but found he could not get a sound out.
That had been so intense.
He had fought the doll, all while hearing Lilly’s shaking screams through the entire amusement park.
Yet he could not lose focus. At last, he defeated the rookie ghost king after battling for a whole night.
The rookie ghost king in question was currently limp in Blake’s grasp. It had been beaten to a literal pulp, cotton flying out of it in various gashes.
However, Blake could feel the Hell Ruler Palace on his head getting heavier and heavier…
And to his disbelief, his little darling had not come looking for him at all!
“Hi- Daddy…” Lilly waved guiltily.
The little girl seemed to just remember her doll as well, turning over with guilt in her eyes as well.
Blake looked at Lilly, mildly annoyed.
The doll looked at the little girl, mildly annoyed.
Blake: I spent the whole night fighting.
The doll: I spent the whole night getting beaten up.
And these two had been playing the whole time!
Lilly took the Hell Ruler Palace back, and the little ghost lord girl took her doll back as well.
“What’s your name?” Lilly asked curiously. “Why are you here?”
Just when everyone thought that the little girl couldn’t speak, she opened her mouth. I’m Jessie. This is my older sister, Mindy.”
The little girl pointed at the doll.
Everyone got a shock. The doll was her sister?
“We’ve lived on this island for a really long time,” Jessie said. “Mindy and I have been here since before the amusement park was built.”
“We escaped here from over there, from the islands far, far away.”
The little girl Jessie said a few short sentences, but revealed a lot…
How her sister had turned into a doll.
Why they had to run away?
How they had become a ghost lord and a rookie ghost lord…
Jessie said lightly, “My sister and I were all we had. We had Ma, but no Pa.”
Lilly did not quite get it. They had a mother, so why were they saying they only had each other…
Had she not learned her pronouns?
Blake sat to the side as well. He found the ground a little cold, and hoisted Lilly into his arms.
The sky was still dark before dawn, and the weather was still cold.
The ghosts sat in a row, quietly listening to the ghost lord’s story.
“Ma never liked us. She never spoke to us. I fed on Mindy’s milk when I was a baby.”
That was why she had clung to her sister from a young age. Her sister was beautiful, and had gorgeous eyes. She was like the night sky, brilliant and sparkling.
Jessie loved leaning on her sister, gazing at her dazzling eyes.
Unfortunately, Mindy was mute. But she was kind, and would always have a gift for Jessie everytime she came home from working at the farm.
“Sometimes it was a piece of candy, sometimes a pretty flower.”
As if reminiscing on those good times, a smile appeared on Jessie’s face.
“But when Mindy was eighteen, Ma brought a few men to the house one day.”
Jessie remembered that day. Mindy’s smile disappeared from her face, and her eyes lost their light altogether.
“They said they wanted to play with me, and told me to hide. Ma told Mindy to go to them.”
“I didn’t want to play with them. I just wanted Mindy. But Ma didn’t let me.”
Ma had never told her what to do. Sometimes Jessie would be so hungry her stomach growled, but Ma would hardly even glance at her.
But that day, Ma made her a good meal. There was beef and even hot goat’s milk.
Distracted by the food, Jessie forgot to go looking for her sister.
“That day, Mindy went missing. Jessie’s gaze grew murderous as she spoke, but Lilly could see the gleam. of pain and regret behind them.
Lilly seemed to get it a little now. Jessie must have regretted letting her sister go missing because she was distracted by food.
Jessie continued. “I searched for a long time until it was dark, but I couldn’t find Mindy. So I cried and cried. Ma got impatient with me and gave me a little cloth. She said that Mindy left it for me.”
“She even said that Mindy had gone to a place far away, and that she was having fun. She said Mindy was never coming back to this poor, miserable place.”
Tears streamed down Jessie’s face, her lip quivering. “I didn’t believe that, of course!”
Mindy would never leave her behind.
From that day onwards, she began looking through the entire farm. She searched and searched, from the grassy fields to the cliffs over the shore.
She held onto the little doll, searching high and low with a worrisome heart.
If she got hungry, she would make a meal of some hay.
If she got thirsty, she would lie by the nearest puddle and drink some water.
The doll stayed by her side, going from pristine to dirty.
“How’d you know that Mindy gave you the doll?” Lilly could not help but ask.

Jessie shook her head. “I don’t know for sure, but Ma told me Mindy left it behind for me so I believed
her.”
She stroked the doll in her hands. “Because Mindy said she was going to give me a doll on my birthday,”
Mindy had said that she was going to sew one for Jessie herself and that she was going to stuff it with the remaining cotton she had gathered from after picking season.
“So did you find Mindy in the end?” The harem spirit glanced at the doll in Mindy’s hands, and could not help but ask the question.
