Chapter 492 The Symbol of Demons
Dalton raised an eyebrow when he noticed that Wynter was staring at him. “Looking at me like thatmakes me feel like you’re about to ask me to cover the medical bills again.”
“Medical billa?” Wynter didn’t quite understand.
Dalton raised his hand and pointed to his neck. After a light cough, he chuckled softly. His laughtersounded pleasant.
It was only now that Wynter noticed the marks spreading under his neck. They were a series of FankritInscriptions. Those unfamiliar with Fankrit might have mistaken them for tattoos.
In fact, they were another form of earthbound spirit, especially with the red spider lily imprinted besidethem.
Since the marks extended down his neck and he loved to wear collared shirts, Wynter hadn’t seenthem clearly before.
Now that she noticed it, she wanted a closer look. So, she pulled him closer and gently unbuttoned hiscollar.
According to many myths, red spider lilies grew along the road to the underworld to guide spirits to theafterlife. It symbolized the gentleness of demons.
Due to its association with death, most people wouldn’t choose to ink this flower.
“Are you interested in this?” Dalton looked down at her. Even with his sickly appearance, his naturallygood looks were not diminished.
Wynter could sense that the closer he got, the more terrified the three little spirits became. Eventhought they were nestled within the pendant and coin, they still trembled with fear.
Even though there was nothing apparent, at that moment, Wynter felt an overwhelming tension,
“I was born with it,” Dalton said casually, adjusting his umbrella toward her. “It seems like many peopleare scared of it.”
Wynter buttoned up his collar. “It’s indeed unusual. Anyway, save up the medical expenses. You’ll needto change your medicine. Your cold is getting worse.”
“I actually feel much better than before.” Dalton tucked her long hair behind her ear. “At least I’m not asfragile now, getting sick at the slightest touch.”
With that, he glanced down. “This sugilite pendant seems different from before.”
“You can tell?” Wynter raised an eyebrow.
Dalton chuckled in a low voice. “The color is deeper.
Frightened, the spirits hiding inside shivered slightly. They thought he had sensed them.

“Is that so? It means I wear it all the time.” Wynter changed the subject. “Where’s Toblas? I want totake
him to see someone.”
Dalton was puzzled, “Who?”
“My mom,” Wynter answered casually.
Whatever issues he had, they could address them later. For now, it didn’t seem like there were any evilitems on him. Instead, it seemed like his true nature possessed a power that frightened spirits.
Last time at the hotel, the old woman selling flowers was the most evil spirit in the EarthboundFormation.
When someone encountered her at the center of the formation, she would approach them and usethem.
as nutrients for the formation.
Yet, she didn’t sell Dalton any flowers and even allowed him to use the elevator freely.
Logically, the better one’s luck, the less likely they were to encounter such spirits. However, Daltonentered the Earthbound Formation so casually, like it was his home. That was quite ridiculous.
Thinking about that gave Wynter a headache, so she didn’t dwell on it. After all, the most importantthing now was to resolve the misunderstanding between Marie and Tobias.
The messages Marie sent her all indicated that she wanted to make amends with Tobias, but that she
also didn’t know where to start.
It was because of Wynter that Marie had lost a part of her soul. When Wynter found the missing soulfragment in the hotel basement, she could see the woman clutching a tiger head hat.
Marie had preserved everything Wynter had, which allowed the latter to come home.
