Chapter 240: Broken Moon (2)
On top of the high blue sky, a White Hungry Ghost was crying sadly.
“Kyuuuhihing.”
That cry was filled with deep sadness.
Just a short while ago, it was lying in the hospital bed, enjoying a peaceful daily life!
However, the peace that the White Hungry Ghost gained when the Gray Reaper left didn’t last long. Since it wasn’t peace that he had achieved with its own strength, that peace was bound to be easily broken.
Lately, the Orange Reapers had grown increasingly mischievous. While wandering around looking for someone to prank, it found the White Hungry Ghost and immediately targeted it. The Orange Reapers usually hated hanging out together, but this time, four of them gathered together and began to harass the White Hungry Ghost.
After stuffing a lot of sweet hot chocolate into White Hungry Ghost’s stomach, they used their ability to fly freely in the sky to grab White Hungry Ghost’s short legs one by one and pull them up into the air.
The destination was the Black Sugar Desert.
The Black Sugar Desert that the Orange Reaper really hated!
The other Mini Reapers liked the place quite a bit, but the Orange Reapers hated the Black Sugar Desert because sugar crystals kept digging into their cotton balls.
The Orange Reapers got together and decided to play a prank on the Mini Reapers who were playing in the Black Sugar Desert. They were floating around above the Black Sugar Desert, looking for their prank target.
Then, when the Orange Reapers found the Mini Reapers building a sand castle, they immediately patted White Hungry Ghost’s stomach.
“Kyuhing.”
The White Hungry Ghost cried softly at the Orange Reapers’ instruction and opened its mouth wide. Then, the hot chocolate that was in his stomach poured out like a waterfall.
The sweet hot chocolate bombardment hit the Mini Reapers who were building sand castles.
It was a scene reminiscent of a battlefield bombardment.
The sand castles they had painstakingly built collapsed and crumbled in an instant.
‘!!!’
The Golden Reaper, who had been building a castle on an unusual scale, felt resentful as if their own house had collapsed.
The Blue Reaper, who was wearing the Golden Reaper doll costume and secretly making its own small and delicate sand castle among the Golden Reapers, shed tears.
The sand castle of the Red Reaper, who was red and a little shorter than the other Mini Reapers and was loved by the Gray Reaper, also collapsed due the hot chocolate.
The sand castle was beautiful and shining like melted sugar and hardened glass, but it couldn’t hold up when the heavy hot chocolate poured down.
Only the highest spire sparkled like an overturned icicle, but even the melted considerably, so it couldn’t be called a spire anymore.
The Orange Reapers saw that and laughed happily like the Gray Reaper. However, when several Golden Reapers drew their swords of light and started chasing them, the Orange Reapers started to run away in a hurry, increasing their altitude.
Of course, they left the White Hungry Ghost who had already outlived its usefulness behind.
The fallen White Hungry Ghost fell onto the melted spire and it pierced its stomach, turning into a skewer.
“Kyuhinghing.”
The White Hungry Ghost, who could not be happy, cried sadly.
Then, the Yellow Reaper slowly approached the poor White Hungry Ghost.
The Yellow Reaper smiled gloomily and asked it,
Don’t you need a doll costume to avoid pranks?
The White Hungry Ghost cried loudly even though its stomach was pierced.
“Kyu!”
It was an answer full of agreement.
