Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381 Paper Figure

Hannah was so terrified that she cried profusely. She also jerked up in shock and bumped her head on the bottom of the bed. Her head began to swell.

Josh’s face turned pale and he reached out, wanting to huddle up with someone. In the end, it was Drake who he hugged.

Drake wanted to push him away, but maybe because he was also terrified, he was petrified under the bed.

However, none of them suffered worse than Bryson.

He turned around and stared right into that pale face of the paper figure, and while he never used vulgarities normally, he could not help but blurt out, “What the f*ck!?”

Lilly was already out of the bottom of the bed, and she hurled fireball after fireball at that paper figure.

That paper figured out an agonized scream, and soon, it turned into ashes.

The window suddenly made a sound and the red string snapped. A chicken leg fell to the ground.

Lilly scooped up the unlucky ghost, harem ghost, weakling spirit, and foolish ghost…. Even Ms. Ugly was included as Lilly hurled all of them in that direction!

“Catch him!” Lilly shouted, “Whoever gets him, you will be rewarded with a lollipop!”

“No, I will reward ten lollipops! I am not strapped for cash!” Lilly made a face that indicated that she had money to spend.

The ghosts did not know what to say. Was Lilly seriously talking about how rich she was when she was just going to reward them with some lollipops?

“Who cares about lollipops…” Foolish ghost was the first to complain.

Weakling spirit was the first to fly toward the site of concern. His eyes had a renewed focus as he said seriously, “I care!”

Unlucky ghost exclaimed, “Hey, don’t compete with me for that reward!”

Harem ghost stepped on the unlucky ghost and shot of “Stay put here!”

Foolish ghost was confused by their enthusiasm. However, he followed the other ghosts anyway.

The ghosts slit through the air with stunning speed.

They were no longer bantering and laughing amongst themselves. They were no longer taking things lightly. A murderous look appeared in their eyes-

They would never guess that this fight was what precisely led to them being part of the ghost army working directly under the Ruler of Hell!

Ms. Ugly was huffing and pulling behind them, “Hey, wait for me… Do you think I should make some noise and cheer you on?”

The paper figure had completely turned to ashes, and the room was now in darkness again.

Lilly felt that she could not catch a break at all. She begin to light up the candles once again.

Light filled the room, and something was swinging in mid-air as a shadow danced across the wall.

Bryson looked upwards and saw that the bride was once again hanging from the ceiling. There was nobody wearing that red dress. Only her head was visible.

He almost wet his pants.

“I died such a terrible death…” The bride wailed, and the red dress began flapping in the wind, “Save me… Save me…”

Everyone became silent.

Lilly simply said, “Come down by yourself.”

The ghost bride was caught red-handed. She quietly came down.

“I remember now,” She stared at the ashes, “During the night of our wedding, my husband bumped into the candle and the fire devoured him…”

Josh felt a wave of nausea sweep over him. The ghost bride had said that before, but he did not think those words had much significance.

“My husband was devoured by the flames, and he was so angry that he smashed the candle to the floor. However, the fire got bigger and his face changed… He turned into a paper figure…”

“As the fire continued to burn him, he let out a shrilling scream. Loud crackling noises began to fill the room as more paper figures popped out of nowhere…”

The bride then got gobbled up by the paper figures, leaving only her head which was somehow hung on the ceiling.

After the bride told her story, everyone was feeling crept out. Their hair was standing on end.

“Paper figures…” Josh recalled the numerous paper figures at the back of the house.

Could it be that those paper figures were getting ready to eat more people back then?

So the other characters such as the government officials, the family members of the bride, and the maids were all eaten up by them, it seemed.
