Belle Adams' Butler Chapter 338

Advertisement

Belle stared at the sixth Grim of cards for what he just revealed. A part of the reason why her soul was not rotting in the land of the dead was because of Greed.

She didn't know how much irreversible bond worked because both Belle and Lucas were from two different worlds. One from the dead and the other from the living. With Greed being the one who had killed her in her past life, the reapers responsibility fell on him but he must have not bothered which only turned as an advantage to both Lucas and her.

"So as the two stars were passed on to the land of the dead, it was possible that the next people took in their place and mine didn't because I was around," concluded Belle to have Greed give her a nod on what she said. All this while, Belle had thought it was the witches but the truth was that it was one of the Hawverts who was trying to pull strings.

"What do you know about Winston's plans, Greed?" asked Lucas as Baltimore was nothing but a useless piece of pawn and the only person whom they could get information was the sixth Grim.

"He wants to rule both the living as well as the dead. He needs the forbidden magic to achieve it," answered Greed.

"What are we going to do now?" asked Barron, "It is only time when someone finds out about Belle's existence and the link between her being a star and you. Winston wants the power, Crane wants you back," summoned Barron.

"We need to find Wrath," answered Lucas.

Barron shook his head. His ears flopping with that action, "That's a bad idea. Edith, Rower, and possibly Wrath are on the same team. Neutral."

"How do you think we are going to find the timekeeper then? Wrath is the only person who might know as he works closely with Crane," said Lucas.

The rabbit got back on the bed, "Wrath stepped down from his position despite him being closely working with Crane. Why would he help?"

"Because he has turned to a fallen Grim. Crane was not happy when he mentioned that four were gone. He's caught up with me. It is only time he catches up with you two," said Lucas tipping his chin up.

"I don't think Crane is happily going to ask me to come back to the land of the dead. You know technically this isn't my fault that I am here," said Barron raising his hand up, "I am going to tell him that I didn't want to be a fallen Grim."

"Crane won't listen to your reasons," Lucas reminded the rabbit whose ears fell down, "Let's relax for now and try to mould ourselves back into the land of the living. Belle," said Lucas, turning to look at her, "You will need to find a spell to remove my presence in here." So that Crane would not find Lucas again. The last time Lucas had baited Crane because he had to make the Hawvert think that the distraction Lucas was having had been sent away that would lead him back to the land of the dead.

Belle gave him a nod, "I will do that. But...I will need access to the spells," she said because she didn't know all the magic. All she had learned so far was from her past life.

Lucas gave it some thought and then said, "The witch we met in Valeria said that one of the witches is trying to resurrect the dead through the book."

"What book?" asked Barron who had not been filled with what had happened until now.

"The book of Vervus," replied Lucas and Barron's ears went up again.

"I thought it was a joke in the land of the dead. To mock the living," commented Barron, "Oh my rabbit ears! Does this mean we can bring back people from the dead?!"

Lucas let Barron catch up with his thoughts and turned to Belle to say, "I will go look for it in Valeria. One of the witches might know where the book is and who has it. Until then we all act normal. Like mortals," he said and this was for the two Grims who had caused chaos in their absence.

"I am always normal," said Barron, moving one of his hands like it was no big deal.

"Do you think the Grims will appear here?" questioned Belle.

"They will one day and before that, we will need to be prepared. We have broken laws by stepping down from the position. Their first priority would be taking us back to the land of the dead and will then close the connection where we won't be able to step back into the land of the living," as Lucas said this, Belle could only wish that such thing would not happen.

And that way the Grims and Belle decided to go back to their life like they knew nothing about the realm of the dead.

When the next day arrived, Belle went to visit the graves of her parents with Lucas before they had a guest who arrived there. It was the ghoul, Everest.

"How are they doing?" inquired Belle about the souls of the three people who she had placed in the ghoul's fragmented world.

"Healthy. Happy," answered the ghoul and Belle was glad to hear that. Even though it wasn't the real world, she was glad that at least one of the stars was happy who didn't have to feel like the responsibility of the entire world was on her shoulders.

"You said before that you found out the signs of Vivian's corruption. Do you think you could check if my heart is corrupted?" asked Belle. Lucas didn't want to do it because he was a reaper. Touching so deep, he didn't want to take a chance by mistakenly sending her to the dead.

The ghoul stared at her for a long five seconds before it raised its hand towards her chest..."
