Surviving in a School of Ghost Stories-Chapter 92
When I suddenly opened my eyes, it was midnight.
An unfamiliar yet familiar ceiling came into view. It was the hospital affiliated with St. Gloria Private School.
It was also the place I was brought to whenever I fainted.
The hospital accepts not only students but also islanders as patients.
However, there were also patients who came from the mainland after hearing about the hospital’s reputation (the school usually selects patients through a strict screening process).
Most of these patients were graduates of St. Gloria Private School.
Fortunately for me, students enrolled in the school were eligible for free medical treatment during their enrollment period.
They were also provided with a single room with a bathroom and various amenities.
The room I woke up in was this single room. My hazy vision slowly became clearer.
There was no one in the room.
There was a chair next to the bed, and it was still warm. It seemed like someone had been sitting there a moment ago.
‘Is it Raven? Or Erica?
But neither of them could stay by my side all night because of the dormitory rules.
‘Isn’t it too late yet?’
I found my school uniform on the nightstand next to my bed. It seemed like the nurses had changed me into a patient gown and folded my uniform.
I took out my pocket watch from my uniform pocket and checked the time.
It was 9pm.
‘It’s time for everyone to go home.’
I should tell the nurse that I woke up. I was thinking of pulling the rope next to my bed, but decided to get up and move myself.
As I got up, I found graffiti on my left forearm. The graffiti I had copied from the bathroom wall was written there.
‘Huh? What is that?’
I thought the graffiti was the medium for the bathroom ghost story.
So I copied the graffiti and went through the water to return to reality.
‘The medium hasn’t disappeared yet.’
The evil spirit was definitely gone.
The graffiti belonged to the victims of the bathroom horror story. If so, maybe... ... .
I went straight to the bathroom attached to the hospital room. Then I stood in front of the sink and looked at the mirror.
My face was reflected in the mirror, but nothing happened.
‘Isn’t this it?’
I ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) thought it would appear.
I tilted my head. I was about to turn around in disappointment.
Only then did I see students standing behind me in the mirror with faces I had never seen before.
I turned my head in surprise and looked behind me, but there was no one.
I looked back at the mirror again. The students were still standing behind me.
They seemed to exist only in the mirror.
I instinctively knew that they were the main characters of the graffiti.
The faces of the people reflected in the mirror were not visible. Their bodies were clearly looking forward, but the back of their heads were visible.
I knew that they were not evil spirits but spirits, but it still gave me goosebumps.
They did nothing for a long time.
Whoosh-
There were no windows inside the bathroom, but a gust of wind blew from somewhere and the candles went out.
The Gloria Private School building was very old-fashioned, so they didn't use light bulbs very often. That's how much I regret it.
I waited for my vision to adjust to the darkness inside the dark bathroom.
I was scared because I thought there were so many commanders, or ghosts, behind me, but I tried not to think about it.
It was when my vision had somewhat adjusted to the darkness.
Squeak-
I heard the sound of a door opening.
The bathroom attached to the single room had a sink and a mirror when you opened the door, and then there was a separate toilet and shower room.
The shower room had to be a little further in, but it seemed like the door on that side opened on its own.
I slowly walked toward the shower room. I didn't look back. I was scared.
I went into the shower room relying on my dim vision, and found something in the bathtub.
【Saint Gloria's Diary】
Huh?
Sister Gloria's diary?
"I looked through all the history books, but it didn't come up. If I found Sister Gloria's diary, I might know."
"Sister Gloria's diary?"
"Yeah. I saw it in the history books. She wrote down the sealing records in detail in her diary. But now, the whereabouts of that diary are unknown."
"Whereabouts are unknown?"
"Yeah. Some history books say it might be in a place called 'the other world.' I didn't know what the 'other' world was, but I found out after experiencing the ghost stories this time."
"That means..."
"We have to find Sister Gloria's diary in the 'other world.'"
It was definitely the diary I had talked about with Raven.
That's what we were looking for. Sister Gloria's diary.
The moment I picked up the diary, the bathroom lights came on.
When I came out of the shower, the candle on the sink shelf was flickering.
Of course, all the students in front of me had already disappeared.
My arm felt hot, so I looked at it and saw that the cross tattoo on my arm had flared up and disappeared.
It seemed like they had completely disappeared.
Gulp. I vomited blood again.
The one I had just disappeared was the evil spirit of the bathroom ghost story, and now were the students who had fallen victim to the bathroom ghost story?
Crackle.
At that moment, a crackling sound was heard from the bathroom sink mirror.
I glanced over and saw letters being written on the steamy mirror with a crackling sound.
Thank you.
When I checked, the letters had completely disappeared as if they had never happened. There was no steam on the mirror.
I stood in the bathroom blankly.
It would be unfortunate for the evil spirits to be annihilated. However, it might be freedom for those who were sacrificed to the evil spirits and became spirits. Like the people of Cheswind Village.
It seemed that when you were sacrificed to a ghost story, your very existence was completely erased from people’s memories.
Otherwise, it would make no sense that there were so many victims and no related rumors.
Was it because of Raven? I felt a little sorry.
I hope they feel better too.
I looked at Sister Gloria’s diary as I left the bathroom.
Why did the victims of the bathroom ghost story leave me <Sister Gloria’s Diary>?
Was it a reward for being annihilated? That was the most likely possibility at the moment.
When I left the hospital room with Sister Gloria’s diary, I felt dizzy. It seemed to be because I had vomited blood.
My body seemed to be getting weaker every time I annihilated them.
I took the medicine out of the nightstand drawer next to my bed and poured it into my mouth.
‘Today, I should read this diary and re-plan my future.’
I was excited to see what kind of great information there would be in the diary.
“Huh? What is this?”
I was surprised to see that some of the pages of the diary were torn. It seemed like half of them were torn.
【February 13, 802. 104th sealing record.
Today, I sealed the evil spirits called the concubines on the Eastern Continent.
It would have been nice to annihilate them, but no matter how hard I tried, it was impossible to annihilate them as long as the ‘king’ existed. Sealing was the best option for me.
After all, I had to kill the king. That was clearly the reason I had to live and the reason I existed.】
The concubines were called the bathroom ghosts on the Eastern Continent. They were the very evil spirits that had tormented Teacher Rachel, and that I had annihilated today.
Below the diary, there was a description of how they were sealed. As expected, it was the same method I used to destroy them.
It was impossible to destroy them as long as the king existed. So, unlike Sister Gloria, was it because the king was sealed that I was able to destroy them?
“Wait, but this is the 104th seal record?”
Not the 14th, but the 104th seal record?
How many evil spirits are sealed on this island?
