Chapter 1741: A Great Show

Eden was never one to back down from a challenge. He quicklyregained his composure and, once clear-headed, stood up and beganto stride purposefully toward the king.

Despite his inner turmoil, he desired to see the truth up close.

"Kai!" Jennifer urged, her voice now urgent, echoing that of her master."Who is he? Like me, he's a ghost!"

"Yes, I am a ghost. Thanks to your kick, just a moment ago, I amalready dead," she spoke in a different tone, mimicking the king's voice.Eden froze in his tracks, his brows furrowed deeply as he stared at thedark figure ahead, his throat tightening involuntarily.

Seizing the moment, Jennifer continued, "Admit your mistake to him,apologize, kowtow several times before his grave, and only then will hisspirit cease to haunt you! As your senior, I advise you to mend yourways."

Eden wondered, had the king already passed away? Did he come toconfront him immediately after his demise?

"The grudge is too heavy, the soul cannot disperse..." Jennifer's voiceturned icy, sending shivers down Jolie's spine. What was happening?Was there someone else here?

Eden glanced around once more, hoping to catch a glimpse of hissenior. Suddenly, he realized that even the king's shadow hadvanished!

Boom! The thunder rumbled, deafening in its intensity!

The entire spacious room seemed to contain only him, the panic forcinghim to retreat two steps, instinctively reaching out to grasp the edge ofthe bed.

The room fell silent, the only sound in the world being that of the windand rain, as if everything that had just occurred was a dream.

"For the sake of your own desires, you stole medical books andembarked on the path of poisoning... You have harmed so manypeople, and finally, you have even harmed the leader of a country,” hissenior's voice was filled with sorrow.

"Kal, retribution is not evaded; it is only a matter of time!"

A familiar voice, long unheard, resurfaced, causing Eden to instinctivelyclutch at the bedsheets.

Listening to these words, he quickly fell into contemplation. There areno ghosts in this world. It must have been his exhaustion; his recentlack of rest had caused these hallucinations.

So, he thought, he would apologize to them, let their souls rest, andthen replace an opportunity to burn some paper money, strengthen hisbody through exercise, and keep these impure things away fromhimself.

"Kai, hahaha... Your flawless plan is nothing but a delusion!"

This voice filled Eden with dread.

"Senior, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to push you into the well. You know Ididn't mean to. I just wanted to take a look at that medical book, butyou refused to lend it to me..."

"Senior..." Eden recalled a scene from many years ago, still vivid in hismind. "I didn't mean it. Please rest in peace. I will burn more papermoney for you tomorrow. Whatever your unfulfilled wishes are, tell me,and I will fulfill them one by one. People cannot come back from thedead; I can't do anything about it!"

Jennifer's heart ached as if torn apart. It was him, he had caused theirmaster's death!

In the darkness, in a secluded corner, Ivan held her close.

Jennifer, prioritizing the bigger picture, suppressed her grief and anger,adopting the king's tone. "And what about me? Eden, can I hear yourapology before I am buried?"

Would an apology absolve him of everything? At least at that moment,that's how Eden understood it.

“I'm sorry, Your Majesty..." His legs buckled, and trembling, he kneltdown. "I... I was wrong. I was selfish. I didn't want the throne to fall intoTyler's hands, so I... I..."

“You also don't want it to fall into Louis's hands," Jennifer interjectedonce more, still using the king's voice. "You want to inherit it yourself,don't you?"

“No... that's not... not true..." He couldn't confess any further; Eden hadto absolve himself. "Your Majesty, may you rest in peace. I will assistPrince Louis in handling Lu Layeka. Please depart in peace. I willspend the rest of my days atoning for my sins.”
