Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 The Subordinates of the Ruler of Hell

Zachary was very fearful that he would never see Lilly, his dad and brothers, his grandparents, and all his uncles again….

He realized fully now that he missed everything so much. He even missed everything at home including the plants, that noisy parrot, and the flowers. He could not part ways with everything just yet.

Lilly tried to comfort him when she saw that he was crying profusely, “Everything’s alright now. See. you’ve made a successful return, haven’t you?”

Pablo who was next to them suddenly asked. “Did you know who was the one ordering you to write your name? Did you see his face?”

Zachary would never expect to see a “ghost” floating next to him right now!

He shuddered greatly and gasped. His heartbeat monitor began to beep loudly as the digits shown reached 120.

It was beeping rapidly.

Drake asked, “What’s wrong with you, Zac?”

Did he see a ghost?

The nurse reached the ward in no time, and after checking the surveillance video, the nurse urged everyone to leave, “The patient needs to rest after major surgery. I implore you to leave for now!”

Anthony and the others nodded, and after exchanging some brief words with Bettany, they left.

Bettany and Liam stayed in the ward for the night to watch over Zachary while the others resumed their jobs. In the end, Jack and Bryson, who was enjoying his break, were the ones to stay in the ward with Zachary, Lilly could not leave him alone as well.

Bryson sent the others out so that only Lilly and Pablo were left in the ward.

Lilly began to introduce Pablo to Zachary, “Zac, this is my master!”

Zachary was speechless.

He finally understood now. No wonder Lilly would sometimes talk to the air as if talking to someone invisible. It turned out that it was this master that she had mentioned before.

In fact, Pablo was a good-looking “ghost”. He had accentuated eyes and a sculpted nose, and his jawline was almost perfect… It was too bad that Zachary was not fixated on such superficial features. All he could think about was that Pablo was nothing more than a “ghost”.

Zachary could not be at case especially when he saw how pale Pablo’s face was. The pale color on his face. was a stark contrast to his maroon lip color.

Pablo asked again, “Do you remember anything about that person who kept asking you to write your

name?”

Zachary shook his head. “I can’t remember anything now.”

Pablo pressed on. “Was he tall or short? Was he fat or slim? Was he male or female?”

Zachary hummed but could not produce any answer.

Pablo felt that this was a grave matter. The souls who departed to Hell would not just stop and wait at the entrance like how Zachary had encountered one. That gure was asking, Zachary to write down his name which was a bad sign in hindsight.

Who could that person be?

Pablo was relentless, “What else did you see?”

Zachary racked his brain, “I saw Lilly actually.

Lilly froze a little before gasping, “Was I in Hell too?”

Zachary shook his head, “I don’t know, but I remember that I was in a huge palace kind of place, and there were statues all over the place. I remember seeing Behemoth and Leviathan, the Grim Reaper… I even saw Beelzebub, Leopard Devil, Bird Devil, Fish Devil, and sect Devil.”

Pablo felt weird, “How were you able to recognize them with such clarity?”

Zachary was confused too, “Actually, I have no idea how I was able to recognize them instantly…”

Did he play too many games? That was because those were names that were sometimes used in popular culture. Did he remember that subconsciously?

However, the more he thought about it, the more he knew that that was not the case. He had never encountered any game characters who shared those names.

Pablo’s face grew grimmer, “Go on.”

Zachary paused a little before continuing in a weak voice, “Then, I saw that right in front of the palace. there’s a sign that said ‘Palace of the Ruler of Hell, and behind it was a huge throne and desk. Lilly was sitting on the throne. She warned me that I shouldn’t be there at that time, and she was the one who sent me away with a wave of his hand. After that, I came to my senses here just now.”

Lilly was astonished. She was sitting on the throne that belonged to the Ruler of Hell?

Lilly did not know that she was indeed the Ruler of Hell. She was amazed by what she learned.

Pablo’s voice was a notch deeper, “Based on your description, you for sure have gone to Hell and come back, but everything doesn’t really add up.”

If someone’s soul wandered, the most it could do was wander in the human realm for some time. When that person woke up, his or her soul would immediately return to his or her body,

There was no one like Zachary whose soul somehow went all the way to Hell and he was able to return somehow. To top it off, he even met the Ruler of Hell fmself.

There were ten palaces in Hell, and there were different governors for every palace. However, the Ruler of Hell governed over life and death. The Ruler of Hell was the ultimate king of Hell.

Once Lilly came to the human realm, the Ruler of Hell’s duties were delegated to the other places. Only some of Lilly’s subordinates would do the menial, everyday work. Pablo was one good example as he had to frequent the other palaces for regular meetings.

In the palace of the Ruler of Hell, only statues could be seen there.
