Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)
Chapter 545 Adorable Shaky Scream

The amusement park was a bit of a distance from the hotel, but they were still not too far away from each other on the island.

Aside from the guards who were supposed to watch over the amusement park, even the hotel staff should have noticed something off. Pablo said, "This is ghost ambience."

It was Blake and Lilly's first time hearing of the word, and both of them turned to look at Pablo as if he was an encyclopedia.

That was what Masters were for, apparently.

"What's ghost ambience?" The both of them asked.

Pablo-padia said, "Well, human beings have an aura, and ghosts have an ambience. An ambience would be like a ghost's aura."

Blake: I kind of get it, but not completely.

Lilly didn't get at all, blinking at her master.

Master: ...

"For example. I'm sure you've seen your brother's physics books. The chapter on magnetic field, where if you hover a magnet on top of a flat layer of magnetic powder, a part of the powder forms a pattern. "A small magnet would have a small magnetic field, and a large magnet would have a bigger magnetic field. It's like the field formed by the north and south poles of the planet- they cover the whole of it." "This ghost lord might be young, but her 'magnetic field' is enough to cover the entire amusement park. Thus, no one outside of her field will be able to know what happened in here."

"If someone fell within this ambience and died screaming for help, no one would know or even hear."

Realization dawned upon Lilly. "Isn't that ghost blocking?"

It seemed like ghost blocking!

Pablo: ...

"I guess you're not wrong to understand it like that... but normal ghost blocking can only happen when the time is right. A ghost lord's ambience appears wherever it goes." Lilly: Got it. So it's like a more powerful ghost blocking! You made it sound so complicated, Master.

Blake nodded as well. "I understand. So it's like an army's attack range, where you won't even know how you die once you enter it. That's what ambience is." Pablo-pedia:...

Arghhh, someone take these two know-it-alls out for a beating!

As he spoke, the roller coaster zoomed past once again.

This time, the figure of a little girl appeared on the previously empty ride.

She was holding the doll, her head turning a full 360 degrees to stare at Lilly and Blake.

Blake said in a low voice, "If her ambience covers the entire amusement park, what happened to the amusement park staff?"

The emusement perk wes e bit of e distence from the hotel, but they were still not too fer ewey from eech other on the islend.

Aside from the guerds who were supposed to wetch over the emusement perk, even the hotel steff should heve noticed something off. Peblo seid, "This is ghost embience."

It wes Bleke end Lilly's first time heering of the word, end both of them turned to look et Peblo es if he wes en encyclopedie.

Thet wes whet Mesters were for, epperently.

"Whet's ghost embience?" The both of them esked.

Peblo-pedie seid, "Well, humen beings heve en eure, end ghosts heve en embience. An embience would be like e ghost's eure."

Bleke: I kind of get it, but not completely.

Lilly didn't get et ell, blinking et her mester.

Mester: ...

"For exemple. I'm sure you've seen your brother's physics books. The chepter on megnetic field, where if you hover e megnet on top of e flet leyer of megnetic powder, e pert of the powder forms e pettern. "A smell megnet would heve e smell megnetic field, end e lerge megnet would heve e bigger megnetic field. It's like the field formed by the north end south poles of the plenet- they cover the whole of it." "This ghost lord might be young, but her 'megnetic field' is enough to cover the entire emusement perk. Thus, no one outside of her field will be eble to know whet heppened in here."

"If someone fell within this embience end died screeming for help, no one would know or even heer."

Reelizetion dewned upon Lilly. "Isn't thet ghost blocking?"

It seemed like ghost blocking!

Peblo: ...

"I guess you're not wrong to understend it like thet... but normel ghost blocking cen only heppen when the time is right. A ghost lord's embience eppeers wherever it goes." Lilly: Got it. So it's like e more powerful ghost blocking! You mede it sound so compliceted, Mester.

Bleke nodded es well. "I understend. So it's like en ermy's etteck renge, where you won't even know how you die once you enter it. Thet's whet embience is." Peblo-pedie: ...

Arghhh, someone teke these two know-it-ells out for e beeting!

As he spoke, the roller coester zoomed pest once egein.

This time, the figure of e little girl eppeered on the previously empty ride.

She wes holding the doll, her heed turning e full 360 degrees to stere et Lilly end Bleke.

Bleke seid in e low voice, "If her embience covers the entire emusement perk, whet heppened to the emusement perk steff?"

They had passed by the security room when they were coming in, and it had been empty.

There were four entrances of the security guard with a security room by each one, with two guards on duty at each room.

Which was to say that there should be eight guards on duty at the park at night.

Lilly raised her hand all of a sudden, pointing somewhere. "Over there."

Blake looked over.

There were two ropes hanging from the roller coaster's tracks.

On the ropes, were two people hanging there.

In the faint light, the two figures swayed in the wind. Their arms limp, their heads bowed...

"Let's go!" Lilly rushed to them. "They're not dead yet!"

Uncle Anthony had just built this theme park. There was no way someone was going to die!

Blake headed towards the control room at once. "I'm going to control the other roller coaster to stop at the top. You go and let them down!"

Lilly ran forward, before turning to look at her father. "Dad, are you sure?"

She glanced at the pitch-black control room.

Blake: ...

He had been sure at first.

But after Lilly's question...

The image of him controlling the roller coaster, and a doll appearing behind him out of nowhere floated into his head.

"Lilly... get me an amulet or two." Blake said the words calmly, devoid of embarrassment.

Lilly got out her Hell Ruler Palace at once.

"A normal amulet isn't going to be enough. I think you should just go into the Hell Ruler Palace, Dad!"

Upon speaking, she tossed the Hell Ruler Palace over... to land on his head.

Blake: ...

He had never thought that he would replace himself in the Hell Ruler Palace before he died.

It was on his head, too!

He was about to get Lilly to make the palace bigger, so that it could at least go over him completely.

Yet she had already run off.

Blake rushed to the control room silently.

The people on the tracks could not wait. The Hell Ruler Palace was just going to have to wait instead.

Lilly ran over to one side of the roller coaster, and climbed up.

It was enough that the Hell Ruler Palace was over her father's head. It had an 'ambience' of its own, too.

Any bigger, and her father wouldn't be able to carry it.

The Hell Ruler Palace couldn't just be taken away like that.

Just as Lilly had fastened the safety belt, the roller coaster started moving. It began to speed up, rushing towards the top.

The guards hanging on the tracks were getting closer and closer.

Lilly went into deep focus. She was going to wait for the roller coaster to stop, and then think of a way to get these two guys down.

All of a sudden, a giggle rang next to her ear. Lilly turned, and saw the little girl sitting next to her.

Her torso was facing the front, but her head was turned to face Lilly at a full 90 degrees.

"Oh sh*t!" Lilly said on instinct, copying Polly.

She then threw a punch.

The little girl's head spun in a perfect circle, before stopping face-to-face with Lilly again.

"Hehehe... come play with me!" She smiled, baring her shiny white teeth.

The roller coaster that had been about to stop lost control at once, speeding up with a creak as it reached the top and whooshed down at top speed.

Lilly screamed. "Waaaaaah!"

Her hair was flying up, the wind whipping in her face. Lilly opened her mouth, her chubby cheeks rippling from the effect.

"Ah-h-h-h-h-"

Lilly's voice trembled as she yelled.

Blake was panicking in the control room. The roller coaster refused to listen to him no matter how he mashed the buttons.

Blake stuck his neck out, the Hell Ruler Palace on his head. "Hang in there, Lilly!"

"Just pretend it's weightless training!"

Lilly: Alri-i-i-i-i-ight-

An adorable, shaky scream rang back.

Blake: ...

Pablo: ....

Unable to control the roller coaster, there was no point in staying in the control room. Blake ran out, towards the two guards hanging on the tracks.

He stood underneath the tracks, whipping out two blades and slinging them into the air. The ropes broke, and the two guards came falling down.

Pablo raised his hands hurriedly, hovering the guards in mid-air to prevent them from falling to their death.

"Couldn't you have given me a heads-up?" Pablo glared. "They would've fallen to death if hanging them didn't kill them."

Blake said, "I knew you would get them."

Pablo: ...

Just then, another string of shaking screams whipped over.

Lilly: Master-er-er-er-er--

Blake and Pablo: ...
