No matter how much she called them, they wouldn’t wake, so she turned to Emrys in bafflement. “Mr. Lund, what happened to them?”
Emrys explained, “They’ve been hypnotized by Saint Yellowbeard. You were in the same state a moment ago. It was I who woke you up.” So, Mr. Lund slapped me because he was trying to wake me up.
Charlotte thought briefly before asking, “Why did Saint Yellowbeard hypnotize us?”
“He’s no good person.” Emrys proceeded to give her a brief rundown of what had just occurred,
Charlotte was overwhelmed with shock as incredulity filled her exquisite, doll–like visage.
“Mr. Lund, are you saying that you’re holding a s–spirit in your hand?” she asked.
Seeing Emrys nodding, she couldn’t help but probe further in curiosity, “Can I take a look? I’ve never seen what a spirit looks like.”
“I’m afraid you’ll have nightmares.”
“No, that won’t happen. Please let me take a look, Mr. Lund!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!”
Emrys decided to satisfy her inquisitiveness, so he swiped his fingers across her eyes, enabling her to see spirits.
Huh? Charlotte opened her eyes in anticipation and nervousness. Then, she saw two large, pitch- black eyeballs swinging in front of her like two copper bells.
“Ah!” Sure enough, she was startled, slipped, and nearly fell.
“Mr. Lund, what are you going to do with this spirit?” Charlotte asked while blinking curiously, having recovered from a brief bout of panic.
She was no longer as fearful as before and even found the little spirit oddly adorable, so she kept making faces at iy
How childish. Emrys shook his head in resignation. If she had seen how ferocious Cambion was, she probably wouldn’t think it was cute anymore.
“Cambion is innocent. It was just manipulated by wicked men to do their bidding, so I plan to grant it salvation.” With that, he recited a couple of lines from “Prayers of Enlightenment.”
Charlotte clapped her hands in excitement. “Okay, all right. I’ve never seen the real process of granting salvation to evil spirits. Hurry up and start, Mr. Lund!”

“It’s already over.”
“What?” Before Charlotte could react, she noticed the purple–blue huc on Cambion’s face had faded away, and the expression in its eyes shifted from initial ferocity to gratitude.
Subsequently, Emrys released the seal.
Cambion bowed deeply at him thrice in midair before turning into a wisp of dark smoke and dissipating.
“In the movies, the friars have to set up an altar and perform rituals to grant salvation. How come you did it so quickly, Mr. Lund?”
The process ended before she could see a thing. It was completely different from what she had imagined. This is not satisfying at all.
“With my advanced skills, I don’t need to rely on an altar for my practices. Also,” Emrys smiled, abruptly turning around, and flicked Charlotte’s forehead, “never say that a man is quick.”
“Why? You are quick in everything you do, Mr. Lund, be it granting salvation or riding a bicycle, Charlotte uttered innocently.
Emrys was stumped.
After that, the two stayed on the mountaintop for a while, and those who were hypnotized gradually woke up.
“Huh? Where’s Saint Yellowbeard?” Everyone was utterly confused after waking up.
Charlotte ran up to Shaynice, happily taking her hand, and chirped, “You’re awake, Shaynice!”
“Hm… It’s strange. Why does it feel different from the last time? My head feels heavy.”
“You’re just imagining things.” Charlotte stuck out her tongue and turned around to exchange a knowing smile with Emrys.
She wasn’t about to spill the beans about what happened earlier because that was their little secret, just between her and Emrys.
When it was time to descend the mountain, Charlotte, disregarding the resentful look on her best friend’s face, forcefully shoved the latter into Lance’s Audi SUV.
As for herself, she cheerily hopped onto the back of Emrys‘ bicycle, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist.
