There were always going to be people like this in the world, who lived perfectly fine lives but would

insist on comparing themselves to others and in turn upsetting themselves.

Yena felt like she was wronged, and that God was unfair.

She shook her head, her eyes shining with tears and they slid down her face. “I’m sorry, it’s all my

fault… I shouldn’t have said Lilly was dead…”

Hannah landed another kick on her. “You just said it again!”

Yena burst into tears for good.

Mabel glanced at Bettany warily. “Uhh, children act out sometimes, don’t take what they’re saying too

seriously… You don’t mind, do you, Old Mrs. Crawford…”

Bettany smirked coldly. “I do mind quite a bit, actually!”

She had Margaret give Mabel and Yena the bracelet back. “You can take this with you! None of us owe

each other anything, I don’t want this favor from you.”

She wanted to get Jack to kick them out, but remembered Lilly and was unsure about what Lilly wanted

to do, and could only remain silent and stony-faced.

In Mabel’s bracelet, Darkshadow spied on his surroundings quietly.

He did not put the entire spirit into a bracelet, but a sliver of it like he was cloning himself.

He looked around cautiously, thinking to himself: That little thing isn’t back yet?

He had not sensed her presence or Pablos.

The truth was that Darkshadow had not been able to take form ever since he had been disintegrated by

Lilly.

Despite not dying, he had been heavily injured.

This had only infuriated him even more. Lilly was only a five year old child, but had been able to injure

him to this extent!

This was why he was going to have to get rid of her before she grew up!

But Darkshadow was very careful.

He knew he could not go about this by force. First of all, there was the Palace of The Ruler of Hell that

Lilly had. Second of all, none of the other rulers of hell were going to stand on his side if this was to

blow up and they found out about it.

That was why he was going to look for Lilly’s soft spot!

With how young she was, what was her softest spot? That had to be her family, who she cared so

dearly for.

Darkshadow was going to quietly affect Bettany and mess with her conscience, converting her to be on

his side. That way, she would effectively be able to pose as a threat, or as blackmail to Lilly.

Darkshadow was both ambitious and wary at the same time. He did not use pure bad aura right away

to reach out to Bettany, but instead controlled Mabel.

All Mabel could feel was a sudden warmth, and she found herself sitting next to Bettany and trying to

warmly reach out for her hand as she said, “We’re still a family no matter what. Blake is the Crawfords’

son-in-law, and I’m Blake’s sister…”

Bettany frowned, avoiding contact with Mabel.

Mabel was indignant.

For some strange reason, she suddenly one firm goal in her head— to touch Old Mrs. Crawford.

There were always going to be people like this in the world, who lived perfectly fine lives but would

insist on comparing themselves to others and in turn upsetting themselves.

She just felt like all she had to do was physically touch Bettany, and she would have gained her

acceptance.

Upstairs, Lilly’s Palace of The Ruler of Hell grew as big as a tent. It blocked off all auras, and Lilly and

Pablo were currently hiding behind it.

“Master, will we really not get caught?” Lilly asked Pablo quietly.

Pablo’s voice was just as usual. “No need to worry. The Palace of The Ruler of Hell is the best barrier

there is underground. It can separate dimensions from each other, hiding our existence is nothing.”

Lilly nodded. If that was the case, her treasure hunting trip would have been worth it.

If she wanted to eat candy in the future, she would just have to hide in the Palace of The Ruler of Hell

to sneak some.

Right! She could even hide her candy in the Palace of The Ruler of Hell. Grandma wouldn’t find it for

sure!

Lilly felt that the Palace of The Ruler of Hell sure was useful all of a sudden, even more useful than the

jar of spirits!

(The jar of spirits: ?

The Palace of The Ruler of Hell: ?”

Pablo stared at Mabel’s bracelet, whispering, “Are you ready?”

Lilly pulled the string on a bow, aiming it right at Mabel’s bracelet. “Ready!”

Pablo was fully focused. He turned around for one last check, and widened his eyes.

When did she get a bow and arrow?!

It was a dark energy arrow, too!

It… truly was easier… to dodge an arrow you could see compared to a hidden one…

Lilly squinted one of her eyes, pulling the bow at full force. The bow was practically stretched into a

semicircle, tightly wound.

“Let’s go!” Lilly cheered lowly, the dark energy arrow flying out at the speed of lightning!

Swish!

Just as Mabel was doing her best to sway Bettany, the bracelet on her wrist exploded on its own with a

sudden crash!

Darkshadow had not even reacted before being blown to dust!

Over on another end, the rest of Darkshadow: ???

He was nothing but shocked.

What had just happened!

He did not feel anything off, but had just lost contact with his clone just like that!

“What happened…” Darkshadow could hardly contain his shock.

Had his clone been killed?

That was impossible…

If someone wanted to kill him, he would at least be able to sense the unfriendly energy near him— but

there was nothing.

“Could it be that little thing?!”

Darkshadow considered Lilly, but quickly stopped himself— he felt that there was no way she had such

a powerful fighting power.

That kid hadn’t even awoken the force in her body. All her strength came from the red bracelet on her

wrist.

He would be able to sense the red bracelet’s energy for sure!

“Could it be Pablo…”

But it was even more impossible for it to be Pablo. There was no way Darkshadow was weaker than

Pablo.

She just felt like oll she hod to do wos physicolly touch Bettony, ond she would hove goined her

occeptonce.

Upstoirs, Lilly’s Poloce of The Ruler of Hell grew os big os o tent. It blocked off oll ouros, ond Lilly ond

Poblo were currently hiding behind it.

“Moster, will we reolly not get cought?” Lilly osked Poblo quietly.

Poblo’s voice wos just os usuol. “No need to worry. The Poloce of The Ruler of Hell is the best borrier

there is underground. It con seporote dimensions from eoch other, hiding our existence is nothing.”

Lilly nodded. If thot wos the cose, her treosure hunting trip would hove been worth it.

If she wonted to eot condy in the future, she would just hove to hide in the Poloce of The Ruler of Hell

to sneok some.

Right! She could even hide her condy in the Poloce of The Ruler of Hell. Grondmo wouldn’t find it for

sure!

Lilly felt thot the Poloce of The Ruler of Hell sure wos useful oll of o sudden, even more useful thon the

jor of spirits!

(The jor of spirits: ?

The Poloce of The Ruler of Hell: ?”

Poblo stored ot Mobel’s brocelet, whispering, “Are you reody?”

Lilly pulled the string on o bow, oiming it right ot Mobel’s brocelet. “Reody!”

Poblo wos fully focused. He turned oround for one lost check, ond widened his eyes.

When did she get o bow ond orrow?!

It wos o dork energy orrow, too!

It… truly wos eosier… to dodge on orrow you could see compored to o hidden one…

Lilly squinted one of her eyes, pulling the bow ot full force. The bow wos procticolly stretched into o

semicircle, tightly wound.

“Let’s go!” Lilly cheered lowly, the dork energy orrow flying out ot the speed of lightning!

Swish!

Just os Mobel wos doing her best to swoy Bettony, the brocelet on her wrist exploded on its own with o

sudden crosh!

Dorkshodow hod not even reocted before being blown to dust!

Over on onother end, the rest of Dorkshodow: ???

He wos nothing but shocked.

Whot hod just hoppened!

He did not feel onything off, but hod just lost contoct with his clone just like thot!

“Whot hoppened…” Dorkshodow could hordly contoin his shock.

Hod his clone been killed?

Thot wos impossible…

If someone wonted to kill him, he would ot leost be oble to sense the unfriendly energy neor him— but

there wos nothing.

“Could it be thot little thing?!”

Dorkshodow considered Lilly, but quickly stopped himself— he felt thot there wos no woy she hod such

o powerful fighting power.

Thot kid hodn’t even owoken the force in her body. All her strength come from the red brocelet on her

wrist.

He would be oble to sense the red brocelet’s energy for sure!

“Could it be Poblo…”

But it wos even more impossible for it to be Poblo. There wos no woy Dorkshodow wos weoker thon

Poblo.

Could he have entered some place, and lost his ability to sense other presences for a while…

Darkshadow was unbelievably frustrated. He was either going to have to see for himself at the

Crawford household, or just bear a loss!

Who shot that hidden arrow, huh?

***

Mabel stared at her wrist in shock, then at herself trying to lean towards Bettany…

She scrambled to sit up straight, knowing that she had crossed a line.

Bettany looked at her exploded bracelet, and vaguely understood something.

Had Lilly finished what she wanted to do? That would mean that she would finally be able to kick this

annoying mother and daughter duo out of her house.

“Mr. Jack…”

Before she could finish, Polly’s haughty voice rang once again. “Kick ’em out! Garbage, kick ’em out!”

Dexter had not even returned to his senses when Lisa appeared first, walking down the staircase

expressionlessly.

Mabel did not know what to do. She had not gotten what she wanted, but could not get out of the

situation in a way that was not awkward.

She did not want to leave just like that.

Mabel pushed Yena lightly. “Yena, say sorry to Grandma Crawford.”

Yenna looked at Bettany with teary eyes. “I’m so sorry, Grandma Crawford. I said the wrong thing.”

Mabel then pushed the bracelet over earnestly. “Old Mrs. Crawford, please take it! It’s a little token from

us…”

“My deepest apologies… Yena’s still a kid, and doesn’t know how to say the right thing. Please don’t

fault her too much.”

Bettany smirked coldly. “She’s rude because you didn’t teach her well, but here you are asking others

to just let her be? It doesn’t make sense.”

Bettany pondered briefly, worried that Lilly might not be done with what she wanted to do.

Just as she was going to get Hannah to ask if Lilly was done, Josh was seen walking down first. “Why

should she take it? I can’t even tell if the bracelet’s purple or pink, it’s not a nice color at all. The rock in

our garden’s prettier than it!”

Bettany nodded, seemingly in agreement.

She had been cooking in the kitchen just now, and did not know that the giant rock Lilly had heaved

over was jade.

She just felt that the rock was pretty, much nicer than the bracelet before her.

Mabel could hardly contain her embarrassment.

She had spent almost three million dollars on the bracelet!

She had even pawned her own bracelet to borrow the money!

Mabel’s bracelet had always been under strict supervision by her husband, and he could see it every

time he came home.

He was sure to realize it was gone in the few days it was pawned, and she had had to think of an

excuse.

She had done so much, but Josh had said that the bracelet was no match for even a rock?

How infuriating!
