I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 151 Since you are a student, I will make an exception

"They...are all very nice people. Even though it was the first time they met Charlie and me, they all smiled."

Peter spoke with a dry throat.

"Of course they will smile at you, because one of you is the demon god they believe in, and the other is the demon god's future vessel."

"No...I don't think so..."

"Are you still harboring illusions? If you continue to turn a blind eye, your entire family will become a sacrifice to the devil."

Su Fan ruthlessly pierced the last barrier of self-protection that Peter had built.

There was still a glimmer of fantasy in his heart.

Fantasizing that the world is still the same as he knows it.

Su Fan put down his hand and took out a piece of paper.

“Have you seen this symbol?”

The moonlight in the sky clearly illuminated the pattern on the paper.

Peter was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"My mother and my grandmother both have necklaces like this."

"How did you get the necklace, why did your mother have a bad relationship with your grandmother, and what does this pattern mean?"

"do you know?"

Su Fan's series of questions made Peter shake his head woodenly.

"Go back and get to know your family better, then come and refute me."

Peter looked up and saw that the other party seemed to be about to turn around and leave.

"Wait a moment!"

After a moment's hesitation, he finally couldn't help but speak, called out to Su Fan, and then quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the latter.

"I believe what you said."

"I want to know more about my grandmother, my mother, and my sister."

"Can you please tell me?"

Su Fan looked at him for a while before nodding.
-
There aren't many places in the community where people can talk.

At home, my mother and father were extremely fragile mentally, and it was not a good place to have a conversation.

But we can't let Su Fan stand there all the time.

Peter could only take Su Fan to the small park in the community.

"All the surrounding shops are closed at this time, only the vending machines are still working."

Peter came over with two cans of soda.

After Su Fan took it, he did not open it and put it aside.

"If you want to know anything, just ask."

"Charlie...was my sister's death caused by a demon?"

Peter's hands trembled slightly.

"Yes. But your real sister is long dead."

"Her body was taken over by a demon. She has lived there ever since."

"On the way here, I saw her head."

Su Fan's words made Peter subconsciously tighten his grip on the can, and he didn't even notice the drink flowing out from the back of his hand.

"…I took her to a party and left her alone, causing her to eat a cake with nuts in it by mistake. I drove her to see a doctor, and then… and then…"

"It seems that she took the initiative to seek death."

Su Fan's words interrupted Peter, causing the emotions that were about to be expressed to come to an abrupt halt.

"initiative……"

“The believers have gathered, the vessel is complete, it is time to discard the past flesh and welcome the vessel that is truly suitable for Him.

Your sister's body is no longer useful.

I might as well take this opportunity to create the illusion that I was killed by you in order to shake your will."

"You must feel very guilty for killing your sister, right? But these are just the devil's tricks."

“When a person is extremely sad or frightened, his will becomes very fragile.

Why do evil spirits always like to scare humans? It is because when people are afraid, their minds are damaged and they are easily controlled and possessed. "

Su Fan's voice seemed to come from far away.

"Container...what's going on again?"

Peter was distraught and continued to ask subconsciously.

"Did you hear someone telling you to get out earlier?
That was a spell to drive your soul out of your body. When I arrived, your soul began to separate from your body.

If it weren't for the calming talisman, your soul would have been expelled by the curse long ago."

Peter couldn't believe what Su Fan said.

He immediately thought of the previous scene and looked down at the yellow paper on his chest.

“That’s it?!”

"if not?"

Su Fan asked back.

Peter was in a trance.

It turned out that he felt his body become lighter and his feet left the ground because his soul and body were separated...

No wonder he stopped himself from tearing off the yellow paper. Was this young man trying to save him?
After a long moment, Peter finally spoke.

"Why do you want to help me?"

"Want to hear the truth?"

"Ah."

"To put it simply, I have a grudge against the thing that wants to take over your body. It wants to kill me, so I want to kill it too."

"If He really transfers to you, it will greatly increase the difficulty of dealing with Him and become troublesome."

Su Fan paused when he said this.

“Is this reason sufficient?”

The unexpected answer left Peter at a loss as to how to respond.

He thought that he would hear some great, bright and upright reasons from the other party.

But I didn't expect it was due to personal grudges.

However, this reason sounds obviously more convincing.

"So, you are the legendary exorcist?"

"Well, yes."

Su Fan admitted it.

"Can... um..."

Suddenly, Peter hesitated.

Su Fan was too lazy to talk and just cast an illusion on him.

For a moment, Peter's eyes glazed over.

In less than three seconds, the latter woke up and looked shocked.

Only Peter himself knew what he had just experienced.

In a trance, Peter arrived at the school without knowing when.

He reluctantly joined a basketball game and went on the court without even having time to change out of his sweater and overalls.

As a result, he played the entire game in a daze and performed brilliantly, becoming the MVP of the game.

Not only did he win the favor of the goddess, but also the cheers of the crowd.

But in the end I found myself still in the park.

Until now, he couldn't believe it, it was just an illusion.

So realistic…

The touch... the sound... everything is exactly the same as in reality...

This time, Peter completely believed the other party's identity as an exorcist.

But soon new doubts came to my mind.

So you didn't plan to leave at that time?
Peter opened his mouth to ask this question, but stopped quickly.

Judging from previous statements, even if the cultists’ plan succeeds, the other side has a way to deal with it.

It is not necessary to stop the ceremony.

For the exorcist beside him, Peter's body being taken away was just a little trouble.

But for Peter himself, being dematerialized was death.

If Peter wants to survive and protect his family, he must ask for help from the other party.

But the sentence just now made it seem as if the other party had to help.

If he angered the other party and made them think that he was ungrateful...

Peter didn't dare think any further.

After thinking it over carefully, Peter decided to change the question.

"How long will this piece of paper on my body last?"

"It will be in two hours."

Su Fan stood up.

"This is a curse passed down from your ancestors. You and your father must pay special attention to your mother."

"She is the last person who might be killed next."

"Is there anything...that can shelter us?"

Peter summoned up the courage to ask.

"If you have any, could you give me a few?"

"Yes, I have."

Su Fan's expression was calm as he took out a few more amulets and talismans to ward off evil.

"These can effectively prevent the invasion of evil spirits."

"Thank you!"

Peter's face lit up with joy, and he was about to take it, but Su Fan raised his hand holding the talisman, leaving him empty-handed.

"What are you thanking me for? Five thousand dollars a piece, no bargaining."

"I, I don't have any money now."

"Since you are a student, I will make an exception and give you a loan."

The hasty answer made Peter open his mouth to speak, but he finally closed it.
