My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses-Chapter 142 KEEP AN EYE ON HER PART 10
Osiris walked around the temple. There was nothing about this temple he didn't know of. He went to the collection room and touched every single artifact. It reminded him of his time when he worked here.
He stopped in front of the last box and saw a broken seal. It was the recent seal that was broken. He took it out and checked it. 'As I thought, it was done by a man, no evil spirit.' He put it down where it was and went out of the temple.
Osiris saw a total of fifty priests of different ages standing in front of the temple. "They are very obedient." He commented and climbed down the stairs.
High Priest Wei WenYing stood beside him and asked, "Holy Priest, how do you want to perform the ritual?"
"First, bring out those three priests who were guarding the temple that night," Osiris said.
"Yes," High Priest Wei WenYing ordered those young priests to come forth. They came forward and bowed to Osiris.
Osiris took out a small pink pouch from his long-sleeve and opened it. This pouch had childish embroidery. When Mu Lan was little, she sewed the pouch and gave it to him as a birthday present. He put his hand inside and took out a palm-full of white powder.
It created a circle in the ground with that powder and told those young priests, "Enter the circle carefully." They did as he asked and he started to mumble an ancient mantra.
Instantly, the circle glowed and one of the priests fell on the ground. The other two looked confused. The priests who were watching, started to whisper. Some of them started praying. High Priest Wei WenYing realized what was happening and his face turned pale.
Osiris frowned and threw some white powder aiming at the priests who were still standing inside the circle. One of them fell down and only one stood.
"Come forth, evil creature!" Osiris commanded.
The priest who was standing inside the circle started to laugh madly. The priests who were looking at the scene started praying loudly in fear.
Osiris threw the white powder again and the priest who was laughing started coughing. Then he screamed looking at the sky and blood gushed out of his eyes and mouth.
Osiris closed his eyes and recited another mantra calmly. The priest used his last drop of power to get out of the circle but failed. So he used his blood as a weapon and attacked Osiris with his blood arrow.
Osiris opened his eyes and a strong wind blew around them. The blood arrow that was coming at him, vanished instantly and the priest fell down.
Osiris walked toward his body and checked his pulse. "He is dead." He declared.
"Dead?!" High Priest Wei WenYing exclaimed. Other priests gasped and prayed for the dead's poor soul.
Osiris stood up and exclaimed, "Don't get me wrong. I didn't kill him. I only kissed the part of the evil spirit that was inside him. He had no soul inside his body. It turned out that he sold his soul a long time ago along with his fellow priests' souls to feed the evil spirit and then used their soulless body to break the seal of Suzaku. Two of them were inside, so it was easy for them to move around while the one giving them command was outside. So, after they broke the seal, he screamed outside the temple and no one suspected them because they were injured."
"B-but how? He was such a good person with a big heart." The priests came forward and expressed their sorrow.
"How can he do that?"
"I don't believe it."
"He even saved an orphanage by giving away his life's savings."
"He always treated the sick people kindly."
"I can't believe he did it with a clear mind. Something must have happened."
"Yes, we need to find out about it."
"If what you say is true, he was tricked somehow," Osiris said. "I will thoroughly investigate it."
"Thank you so much, Holy Priest. You have saved our people from the devil." The priests bowed to him.
"It is what I should do." Osiris walked away. He yawned again. "I can't say awake anymore. I'm going to sleep."
"Please have a good rest." High Priest Wei WenYing bowed to him. Then he ordered other priests, "Let's take their bodies to the temple. We lost three brothers and we will pray three days and three nights without eating and drinking. "Let's start their funeral."
Other priests agreed and carried the dead bodies gently.
Osiris went to bed and called Juan. Juan answered the call and asked, "How did it go?"
Osiris explained, "Someone from outside manipulated a priest and the evil spirit had taken three pure souls and got stronger. Though that priest broke the seal, the spirit was getting stronger. I took care of that insufferable spirit. However, I found out something shocking. That spirit had a master."
Juan frowned. "A master other than Satan?"
"So it seems."
"Could it be it's one of The Mongoose?" Juan asked.
Osiris shared his thought, ���I thought so too. However, if that's true, then I shouldn't keep it with my fellow priests. We have no power to fight against The Mongoose. It could be that they wanted the master of that spirit to follow them."
"You are right but I have a feeling that it's them."
Osiris said, "You can send Yicheng to investigate the rest. My work here is done. However, I want to go to the mountain. If it's The Mongoose as you said and they were manipulating something evil, I will find out immediately."
"All right, I will send Yicheng. You can go to the Southeast mountains. Do you need Romano to talk to the animals?" Juan suggested.
"He has already done his job. I don't need him for the time being." Osiris rejected.
"Suit yourself." Juan hung up. He contacted Shintaro and told him, "Tell Yicheng to find out who were manipulating the dead priests."
"I'm on it," Shintaro said.
