Chapter 399: The Story "Mismagius!"

"Gengar!"

Two Pokémon called out to Yuga, and strangely, he understood the meaning behind their calls. They were addressing him as their master.

After conversing with the two Pokémon, Yuga realized that this newfound ability came from the Ghost Realm Source Stone that had entered his mind. However, he also understood that their obedience was not solely due to the Stone's effects but because of the previous owner's trust.

While the Ghost Realm Source Stone granted Yuga the power to suppress Ghost-type Pokémon, it couldn't compel Gengar and Mismagius, who were already pseudo-Elite level, to submit. Nevertheless, the King of Ghosts ability could make weaker Ghost-types obey him.

Additionally, due to the Source Stone, Yuga's body emitted an energy that Ghost-type Pokémon found highly appealing, serving as their best nutrition for growth.

However, this also meant that Yuga frequently attracted various Ghost Pokémon, which could be quite bothersome.

The Ghost Realm Source Stone was the most precious treasure of the Ghost Realm and the source of life for all its inhabitants, hidden deep within the realm.

Muya's fragment was chipped off when she was being punished by the Ghost Realm's consciousness.

After explaining this, Mismagius and Gengar began telling Yuga about Cecilia's story.

Initially, Yuga had no interest in listening, but Mismagius and Gengar weren't having it. They weren't willing to let Yuga enjoy the benefits without fulfilling their end of the deal. So, Yuga was forced to listen to Cecilia's tale.

In the ancient and prestigious family in Hoenn region, a lineage had dedicated generations to the study the Ghost-type Pokémon. They had produced numerous outstanding Ghost-type trainers. However, over time, through wars and divisions, and the loss of valuable records, the family had gradually declined.

But even a camel starves if it keeps getting thinner. In modern times, the family still held significant power and influence in Hoenn.

Cecilia, however, belonged to a branch of this family. Her father, a member of the branch, was moderately talented but highly ambitious. He was determined to make a name for himself within the family. To achieve this, he used cunning way to marry the daughter of one of the family's elders, who happened to be Cecilia's mother. With her father-in-law's help, he slowly climbed the family's hierarchy.

Cecilia was born during this period. Unlike other children, her health was extremely fragile, and she spent most of her time in bed.

Initially, her father treated both Cecilia and her mother well. Even after her father-in-law's passing, his attitude remained unchanged. But things took a dark turn when he gifted Cecilia a Gastly.

Due to her physical condition, Cecilia had no friends, so she developed a strong bond with Gastly, who was a playful companion. One sunny day, while Cecilia was sitting in her wheelchair in the garden, she accidentally cut her finger on a rose thorn.

Mischievous Gastly licked the blood from Cecilia's finger, and this seemingly innocuous act unleashed Gastly's hidden desires.

From that day on, Gastly developed a liking for Cecilia's blood. Her blood was unique, not only enchanting Ghost Pokémon but also promoting rapid growth in them. Cecilia's frail health was a result of her extraordinary blood.

Afterward, Gastly frequently asked Cecilia for her blood, and the requests became more and more frequent. At the time, Cecilia was naive and Gastly was her only friend. She couldn't refuse its requests, inadvertently fueling its desires.

Under the nourishment of Cecilia's blood, Gastly rapidly grew in power.

However, such a noticeable change in Gastly couldn't escape the attention of others, especially Cecilia's closest relative, her father.

After noticing the significant transformation in Gastly, Cecilia's father began to observe Cecilia and Gastly closely. Eventually, he uncovered the secret of Cecilia's unique blood.

A terrifying idea took root in his mind, and he became controlled by it. Using the excuse of Cecilia's frail health, he imprisoned her secretly and extracted her blood to feed his own Pokémon. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

At first, he told Cecilia that he was extracting her blood to find a cure for her illness. Innocent Cecilia naturally believed her father.

However, unlike just feeding a single Gastly, Cecilia's father used her blood to nourish numerous Ghost-type Pokémon. The substantial loss of blood gradually weakened Cecilia's body until she couldn't even move, leaving her increasingly suspicious.

Then, one day, she saw her mother. It was the first time she had seen her mother since her confinement.

Her mother revealed all the secrets she had accidentally discovered to Cecilia. She had come to take Cecilia away secretly.

However, their escape attempt failed. Cecilia's father discovered her mother's actions and was furious. He wouldn't allow his wife to ruin his opportunity.

So, right in front of his daughter, he killed his wife.

Cecilia was once again imprisoned.

To the outside world, Cecilia's father claimed that she had passed away due to illness, and her wife had died from excessive grief. Cecilia's frailty was well-known among the people, and no one suspected his story.

From then on, Cecilia became nothing more than a tool for her father to extract blood.

Cecilia considered suicide, but she couldn't accept dying like that. So, in the midst of endless torment, her personality became increasingly twisted.

This situation continued for five years, and over that time, Cecilia finally realized that even if she remained alive, she wouldn't find any hope.

So, she chose to end her life. Her intense resentment led her to successfully transition into the Ghost Realm, becoming a Specter. With the help of the Ghost Realm's consciousness, she regained her memories.

With her memories from her past life, Cecilia couldn't possibly remain calm. She stole the Ghost Realm Flute of Acerola and escaped the Ghost Realm.

She wanted revenge, and she wanted to find her father, not wasting a moment.

However, her status as a Specter prevented her from staying in the mortal realm for an extended period, so she sought a genuine physical body.

This is precisely why Yuga and Cecilia had their first encounter.

In reality, Cecilia had been dead for over thirty years, and her father was no longer the insignificant figure he once was.
