Chapter 60 - Curse Removal

After thanking Natura, Nathan left the space and was back in his car.

When he looked through the window, he saw that Joseph, who was still standing before, was now down on the ground like the employees at the kitchen!

"Damnit, I have to hurry!" he said,

Leaving the car, he hurriedly approached Joseph and saw that he was having a hard time breathing.

He slowly turned his eyes to Nathan, "Pant… sir… haa…"

"Don't speak," Nathan stopped him from forcing himself, taking out the bottle of salt from his pocket he got ready to get rid of the leech.

But then, he realized something, "Wait, how am I supposed to use this?" He wondered, "Do I have to feed it to them or just sprinkle it on the leech?"

"Aish!" In the end, he shook his head and said, "Whatever, I'll just try it out!"

Just as he said that, he poured some salt on his hands and without hesitation he threw it on Joseph!

Then as the salt made contact with the Spirit Leech, a burning sound came of it and an ear piercing noise sounded in his ear.

"Ack!?"

Nathan hurriedly used his hands to cover his ears as the noise was too painful to listen on.

A minute later, the sound finally died down.

Nathan slowly removed his hand on his ears and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Phew~ It felt like my eardrums were about to burst!"

Shortly after, he turned his head back to Joseph.

Through the Glasses of All-Seeing, Nathan saw that the Spirit Leech attached to Joseph has now disappeared!

Seeing that, Nathan wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead and said, "Thank God, it worked."

At the same time, Joseph, who was sprawled to the ground, slowly opened his eyes.

'Huh? What happened?' he wondered,

He felt like his energy was coming back to his body!

Trying to get up, Joseph was happy that he is now able to move properly again!

"Hahaha, I'm okay now!" He turned his head to Nathan whose eyes were on him the whole time.

"Thank you, sir. For removing the curse that was caused by my own mistake." He glanced at the bell hanging near the entrance of the cafe and lightly shook his head.

Joseph bowed his head a little more deeper to Nathan as he expressed his gratitude.

"We will talk about this again later," Nathan waved his hand dismissively, before he started walking towards the cafe, "For now, I have to remove the curse on everyone in the cafe and make sure no one dies."

Joseph watches Nathan's figure disappear into the cafe with firm eyes, he mutters, "It is good that the cafe has a better owner now…"

…

Inside the cafe, Nathan did not waste any time and headed to the kitchen.

Seeing those people on the floor, trying their best to breathe, Nathan can't help becoming more mad at the one who gave the curse.

"If I ever find whoever did this… they will pay for it." He said with resolve.

Nathan did not move as he swore, just like what he did on Joseph, Nathan poured some Spirit Salt on his hand and sprinkled it on everyone.

The same thing happened when he threw salt on Joseph.

Ear piercing noise sounded in his ears and disappeared after a minute.

The employees started to get up one by one.

"What… happened?"

"I don't know but for some reason I feel better now."

"Yeah, I felt heavy before but now…!"

…

Everyone still seems to be confused and was wondering what is happening.

At this time, Nathan clapped his hands to attract their attention.

"Everyone, please look here."

Realizing that there was someone else here, everyone turned their eyes at him.

Seeing that he now has their attention, he started talking.

"You all might still be confused as to what is happening, but for now, cooperate with me." He said,

Seeing no one refute him, he nodded in satisfaction and continued, "For now, please call all of the employees into the Manager's Office."

Everyone looks at each other, thinking of what to do.

But just as everyone was acting confused, an unassuming guy suddenly stepped out, "I'll go call them."

Without waiting for anything, he left the kitchen to call the other employees.

When the other confused people saw this, they hesitated for a bit before they also started voicing out,

"I'll also help."

"I will go and call them now."

…

Seeing everyone being active, Nathan smiled and nodded his head.

"I'll be waiting for you all at the Manager's Office."

After saying that, Nathan left the kitchen and headed inside the Manager's Office.

At this time, Joseph also came back to the office.

Nathan sat on the manager's seat while Joseph stood beside him.

The two silently waited for the other employees to come.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

*Dong Dong Dong*

"Come in." Nathan said,

The door opened and the man who stepped forward first back at the kitchen was the one who came in.

"Are they all outside now?" Nathan asked,

The man seemed nervous as you can see his knees shaking a little as he replied, "Yes, sir. We have called everyone just like you told us."

He peeked at Joseph at the side and couldn't help but be shocked.

'Who is this man that even Mr. Joseph needs to stand behind him respectfully?'

The man snapped out of his daze after hearing Nathan's voice.

He hurriedly nodded his head, "Ye-yes, sir!" he respectfully said.

"Good!" Nathan stood up, "Time to cure them then."

Nathan walked out of the office.

'Once I'm done with removing the curse, I still have to think what to do with the bell' he thought as he left the room.

Joseph and the other employee also followed behind Nathan.

Outside the Manager's Office, Nathan saw the people standing there quietly.

A lot of them are still cursed.

Without talking anymore nonsense, Nathan sprinkled salt on them.
