He gave them torches.
"Go straight down the corridor and the stairs.
"Turn left from the first corner, go straight and take the third right. You'll find the janitor's room there.
"He will explain the mission details to you."
They took the torches and entered the building.
"Do you remember the location?" Jack asked. "Because I don't."
"Follow me."
It was their first time in Aurelia block.
Neo had to circle around the corridors a few times despite remembering the location.
"You sure you remember the location? We can still return and ask the guard again."
"...Shut up."
In the end, it took them twenty minutes to find the janitor's room.
A dim light flickered above the door.
Neo knocked.
A noise, as if something fell, came from inside the room.
The door opened, and a man with hollowed cheek and large dark circles beneath his eyes revealed himself.
"We've accepted the mission."
Neo revealed the documents.
The janitor showed no reaction.
He stepped out of the room and walked into another direction.
"…?"
"I think he wants us to follow him," Jack said.
They climbed the stairs and reached the fourth floor.
The janitor stopped before the women washroom. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
"It comes here. No fixed time of arrival and you can't see it," he spoke with a ghastly voice and left.
"Huh? Wait, where are you going?" Jack asked.
The janitor did not return.
Jack was left exasperated.
"That's all information we have for the mission? Wow."
Neo stepped into the washroom.
He scanned the area.
Ghosts were an invisible entity.
One needed elemental vision with Death affinity to see them.
"Paimon can you help me locate the ghosts?"
"No."
He expected the answer, but it still disappointed him.
'Guess we need to do it the hard way.'
Neo turned around only to see Jack still outside the washroom doors.
"Why aren't you coming in?"
"Can I do that? I'm a man and it's women washroom."
"…"
Neo gave him an unamused stare.
"Jack, we don't have time for jokes."
"I wasn't joking though."
Jack stepped inside with an embarrassed expression.
The two waited for the ghost to appear.
Nothing happened after two hours.
"Is this even working? Besides, how will we deal with something we can't see?"
"We'll use our Death affinity to dodge the ghost's attacks and counter it."
"…Doesn't that mean we have no plan?"
Neo looked away.
It would've been easy task if he had elemental vision.
However, one needed to reach Adept mastery in an element for it.
"We are wasting too much time.
"…I'll try to lure out the ghost. Please protect me and deal with it when it arrives," Jack said.
He sat crossed leg on the ground and closed his eyes.
His lips moved while he chanted multiple spells.
