Daniel pulled out a stack of papers from his backpack and handed them to Britney.
"Britney, follow right behind me. Every three steps, toss one of these papers. These are for the ghosts. And remember, every three steps, no exceptions. Otherwise, the road ahead won't be easy."
"Yes, yes, got it! Why do you have to be so chatty? It's such a hassle!"
Britney took the papers with a look of disdain.
After explaining to her, Daniel turned to the other two.
"Perry, you follow behind Britney. You’ve got protective markings on your face, so the ghosts won't come near you. By walking behind her, you can keep her safe."
Finally, Daniel looked at Nathan and asked, "Nathan, I'm giving you one last chance. Do you want me to draw protective marks on your face? If you still refuse and end up with your soul messed up by ghosts, or worse, dead or turned into a fool on Golden Light Hill, don't say I didn't warn you!"
Despite Daniel's good intentions, Nathan responded with a cold, mocking laugh.
"Haha!"
After laughing, he said disdainfully, "Hillbilly, you sure talk a lot! Your acting is top-notch; you should win an Oscar. But your performance doesn't fool me! What ghosts? Corrupt my soul? Haha! Why don't you bring those ghosts out? I'd love to see how they corrupt my soul! I've practiced martial arts since I was young. I'm not just Perry's driver; I'm his bodyguard. If any ghosts show up, I'll knock them out with a punch and have them screaming in no time. Let's see if they dare show their faces again!"
"Fine! If you're that confident, Nathan, and think you can knock out those ghosts with one punch, then suit yourself. You'll be on your own."
