00:19This ghost moves so fast
00:58This ghost moves so fast
01:20Oh, he has no eyes
01:22He can't see
01:23So maybe he's not deaf
01:25Just mute
01:27The so-called silence rule means any sound becomes his target for attack
01:32Lily, now, cry as loud as you can to distract him
01:42I want lollipops
02:15Congratulations, host!
02:17Soldier Chesspiece
02:24Finally, it's over
02:31Congratulations, you've cleared it
02:35Merlin, can we leave now?
02:55Where am I?
02:58I'm sorry
03:01This face
03:02She's Ms. Steel
03:04But the eerie aura around her is gone
03:07And her skin feels completely different
03:09Like a real living person
03:11He broke the rules
03:12Of the instance
03:14And freed me from eternal curse
03:20Thank you, Merlin
03:22Congratulations, host!
03:24Affinity with Martha Steel reached 100%
03:27Achievement unlocked
03:28Life and death bond
03:29Special ability unlocked
03:31Crimson Rose protection
03:41Merlin
03:42Merlin
03:43Is this the place with all the lollipops you talked about?
03:50When are we going to get them?
03:54I'll take you to buy them tomorrow morning
04:00This tastes so good
04:01Better than a lollipop
04:03Slow down
04:04No one's taking it from you
04:08Affinity with the infant spirit doll increased to 80%
04:12Reward
04:13Complete physical enhancement
04:15So this is the enhancement?
04:22Wow, it works instantly
04:24Well, if it isn't Merlin
04:28What a small world
04:31It seems dumping you back then
04:33Was the right call
04:35Look at you now
04:37Babysitting a kid
04:39And fooling around with
04:41This okay looking woman
04:46Gorgeous
04:47Add me on WhatsApp
04:48I'm Zeke Glade
04:50Member of the special ops unit
04:52Sorry
04:53Not interested
04:55What future do you have with this loser
04:57Who can't even clear an instance?
05:00Can he give you a seven figure salary
05:02Or social privileges?
05:04Why don't you break up with him?
05:05Let me set you up with someone better
05:08What do you say?
05:09He's a top player from the special ops tactical team
05:12I heard every one of them
05:13Can solo an A rank instance
05:15Thanks to these elite players clearing the way
05:18The rest of us have a bigger chance to survive
05:23So gorgeous
05:24Think about it
05:25This is the life of the real winners
05:28If this guy knew Martha was originally an S rank ghost
05:32He'd be scared out of his mind
05:35Is clearing an A rank instance that impressive?
05:38Merlin cleared an S rank instance in one life
05:41Who is this brat?
05:43Clearing an S rank instance in one life?
05:45Stop bullshitting
05:46Merlin
05:46You brag without even checking the facts
05:49The only S rank instance in the country
05:51Is the haunted sanatorium
05:52The special ops unit spent three months on it
05:56Lost three elite squads
05:58And still couldn't clear it
06:00You're just an untrained ordinary guy
06:03Even with ten lives
06:05You still can't fight those S rank ghosts
06:09A bunch of idiots
06:24Uncle Cyril
06:25What brings you here?
06:27I'm Zeke
06:29This is my uncle
06:30The chief commander of Drania's special ops unit HQ
06:33He oversees all A rank and above raids
06:37What is the commander doing here?
06:40He's probably here for that young man
06:42Sounds like they're relatives
06:44Dumping Merlin back then was the right call
06:47With the connections of Zeke's uncle
06:49It won't be long
06:50Before I join the special ops unit
06:53Uncle Cyril
06:54What brings you to the city?
06:57Mr. Klein
06:59I'm Cyril Glade
07:01On behalf of Drania's special ops unit
07:03And billions of our people
07:04I sincerely ask you
07:06To step in and save our nation
07:17Commander
07:18Please stand up
07:19Why kneeling?
07:21What happened?
07:22What happened?
07:37Mr. Klein
07:38We meet again
07:39Matt?
07:40You're with the SOU?
07:42I was an intern
07:43Thanks to you for leading through the S rank sanatorium instance
07:47I met the requirements to go full time
07:49After I got back I reported all your heroic feats
07:52In the instance to my superiors
07:56Matt's report is how we confirm that you're Mr. Merlin Klein
08:00The key figure who solo cleared the S rank haunted sanatorium instance
08:04Didn't that instance already end?
08:06What's the problem now?
08:07Mr. Klein
08:08There are too many people here
08:10Some state level secrets can't be shared in public
08:13Please come with us to HQ
08:15So we can talk in detail
08:21Sorry
08:21I'm not free
08:22I promised the kid
08:24I'd take her to the amusement park
08:29Yeah
08:30He promised me
08:31We pinky swore
08:33Whoever lies is a puppy
08:34Woof woof
08:39He turned it down
08:42He chose the amusement park
08:44Over the commander's invitation
08:46Who's that little girl?
08:47She must be a big deal
08:49Maybe we can talk over there
08:52You've got 10 minutes
08:53Aw kitty
08:55Such a cute kitty
08:57Merlin
08:57I want to go there
08:59That place looks nice
09:01Alright then Mr. Chen
09:0310 minutes is fine
09:05Uncle Cyril
09:06What a coincidence
09:07Merlin and I were old friends
09:09And I'm with SOU too
09:11Why don't you let me sit in?
09:14I might be able to help
09:16Clear the area
09:17Set up a perimeter
09:30Oh
09:33Oh
09:34Oh
09:50Oh my god, who is this handsome guy?
09:53The commander is treating him with such respect and even cleared the whole area for him.
09:57He must be one of those top players who cleared ultra-hard instances.
10:01I never thought a top player could be this young.
10:04And handsome.
10:06If only he were my boyfriend.
10:10One eyes to Maricano, please.
10:14Same as him.
10:16Oh, okay, coming right up.
10:26Mr. Klein, please take a look at this file.
10:29It's the full dossier on an Asus Rank instance.
10:32With this information, the chances of clearing it go way out.
10:36And he actually let me read it freely?
10:39Mr. Klein, you probably don't know that every high-level instance raid is tied to Draenius' future.
10:46The moment you clear the Asus Rank instance, our biomedical research teams made a major breakthrough after being stuck for
10:56years.
10:57You could say you indirectly saved countless lives.
11:01An Asus Rank instance is at least twice as hard as an Asus Rank one.
11:32I personally will provide 100 creds as your starting resources.
11:37On top of that, the entire Draenius' SOU will support you with all available intel, analysis, and gear.
11:44And you can choose any active members to form your own squad.
11:51Oh my god, 100 creds!
11:54On the black market, a single cred can buy a downtown apartment.
11:58Commander Glade really went all in.
12:05All right, I'll think it over for two days.
12:07100 creds are enough to impress any so-called powerhouse.
12:11Yet his expression didn't even change at all.
12:13This kind of composure at his age isn't normal.
12:17Either he's got serious backing, or his own strength far exceeds that price.
12:23Looks like, my early assessment of him was too cautious.
12:33Since you need time to consider the creds, think of this as the SOU's goodwill in advance.
12:39Damn, this guy's really something.
12:42I thought it was just empty promises, but he actually handed over the creds.
12:47Mr. Klein, no matter what's your final decision, these creds are yours.
12:52If you hadn't cleared the S-rank instance, the challenges facing the country would be far worse.
12:59We'll head back to the operations center.
13:01Let's not disturb Mr. Klein and his friends from enjoying their rare free time.
13:09The black market, a place for trading instance items and ghost artifacts.
13:14It's allowed to exist, but no one can really control it.
13:17Here, there are all kinds of people.
13:19The goods are a mix of real and fave.
13:20Scoring the goods we want, means having a trusted contact.
13:25Hey, you look new here.
13:27First time here?
13:28I'm Cody Brock, a regular here.
13:30I just got a new batch of goods.
13:32They came straight from A-rank instances.
13:35Hmph.
13:36His acting is terrible.
13:37He reeks of killing intent.
13:39Still, a local like this is the best kind of guide.
13:43Might as well use these connections to see if I can find what I really need.
13:50Really?
13:51A-rank instance goods.
13:52What do you have?
13:54The good stuff's in the back warehouse.
13:57Too many eyes out here.
13:58You seem like an honest guy.
14:00Come, I'll show you.
14:02Lead the way.
14:03If it's good stuff, the price isn't an issue.
14:07I like that.
14:08Follow me.
14:23Kid, leave the case you're holding and those two chicks behind.
14:28Maybe we'll let you walk out in one piece.
14:32These chicks have such soft, delicate skin.
14:35We hit the jackpot this time.
14:40I was just looking to test out my physical enhancement.
14:57Ghostly energy?
14:59That girl's a ghost.
15:02He contained ghosts?
15:05We seriously messed up.
15:07Where did this monster come from?
15:14Sir, please spare us.
15:16We were blind and stupid to offend you and the ladies.
15:20Please, just let us go.
15:22Please spare us.
15:26If you want to live, then take me to the ghost auction.
15:31The auction?
15:33Sir, that isn't some ordinary place.
15:37Anything in there is worth a fortune.
15:40I heard a foreign billionaire tycoon tried to get in once, and the guards wouldn't even open the door.
15:46Every deal in there only takes creds.
15:49Any other currency, including gold, or just scrap metal in there.
15:53Aw, you broke losers.
15:55It's just creds.
15:56What's so special about them?
15:59Wait.
16:00That case is filled with creds?
16:04Just how much is there?
16:07Cut the crap.
16:08Can you lead away or not?
16:10Got it.
16:12Sir, this way, please.
16:13I'll show you the way.
16:14It's an honor to serve you.
16:21Sir, it's dark up ahead.
16:23I'll clear the way for you.
16:25Miss!
16:26Little miss!
16:27Please watch your step.
16:33Sir, this is the black market's most prestigious Kingston Hotel.
16:38Anyone who wins an item here will become a VIP of the hotel's owner.
16:46Good evening, sir.
16:48Kingston Hotel is hosting the Scarlet Auction today.
16:51We're not open to the public.
16:52If you wish to attend the auction, please present your Scarlet invitation.
16:56Dude, this guy's a high roller.
17:00Everything in there is the real deal.
17:03My apologies.
17:04Right this way, sir.
17:06I'll take you to the hall for registration.
17:08We'll arrange temporary auction seating for you.
17:11Lead the way.
17:26Merlin, it's so pretty here.
17:29Are we going to play here later?
17:32Shh!
17:32Merlin has something important to say.
17:34Let's not distract him while he's busy.
17:38Be good, Lily.
17:39I'll buy you a toy later.
17:44Sir, please fill in your basic information.
17:47That includes your name, address, and contact details.
17:50Merlin Klein, a student at Easton University.
17:54His address?
17:55Is that a regular apartment?
17:57Why is an ordinary uni student doing at our auction?
18:00Sir, we need to verify your funds before entry.
18:03Please declare your creds honestly.
18:05Your info will be kept strictly confidential.
18:09One, 100 creds?
18:11Mr. Klein, my apologies.
18:14To protect your interests, we'll need to run a private verification.
18:18The VIP room is this way.
18:32It's 100 creds.
18:35There's really 100 of them here.
18:37And he's carrying them around like it's nothing.
18:40This young man's background is deeper than we can imagine.
18:43Mr. Klein, your funds are fully verified.
18:46Sorry for taking up your time.
18:48I'll set up a room for you on the second floor.
18:50Enjoy the bidding tonight.
18:56Next up is item number three.
18:58It's a one more bottle cap from a D-rank instance, the Endless Storm.
19:03Starting bid is $100,000.
19:05People actually want this thing?
19:12Next is a demanged map from a C-rank instance.
19:15They say a starving ghost gnawed on this bread.
19:18This slipper was supposedly worn by a red-clad female ghost.
19:21I want it.
19:22I want it.
19:23Embroidered slipper worn by a female ghost.
19:26Buyer number seven bidded three creds on it.
19:28Sold.
19:30Do these people buy literally anything?
19:32What if it wasn't worn by a ghost, but by some gross, sweaty guy instead?
19:36Humans have always had strange tastes.
19:48Merlin!
19:49Merlin!
19:50I want this one!
19:55They're auctioning people?
20:06This is a ghost?
20:09A capturable target detected.
20:11SSS-rank vampire ghost, Lilith.
20:14New quest assigned.
20:16Help Lilith regain her freedom.
20:19Reward, immortality.
20:22Immortality?
20:23That reward's way too tempted.
20:25Everyone!
20:26Here's tonight's grand finale.
20:29A ghost child!
20:31She's not in great condition now, but her rarity and research value are priceless.
20:37Starting bid.
20:3830 creds.
20:3930 creds?
20:41Look at that face.
20:42Once she's fully grown, she'll be amazing.
20:58The VIP in private room number one bidded 100 creds.
21:05What?
21:06100 creds?
21:07All that for something half dead?
21:09What a nutcase!
21:17Let's congratulate our bidder on winning this collectible.
21:20Oh my god, 100 creds?
21:23What a big spender.
21:24They've got deep pockets.
21:26How many runs do you have to grind in the instances for 100 creds?
21:29100 creds could open a five-star hotel.
21:32He spent it on this piece of junk?
21:38We finally meet again, my dear hero.
21:43This game...
21:45It's only just beginning.
21:53Merlin, which dress do you think looks best on her?
21:57You're treating her like a dress-up doll.
21:59Yeah!
22:00I'm gonna give her a pretty braid later.
22:04Merlin, which looks better?
22:07Pigtails or braids?
22:12Merlin, there's something off about her.
22:15It's risky to bring her back here.
22:17What if...
22:21Relax.
22:22I get it.
22:23Then why did you bring her home?
22:26What?
22:27Chalice?
22:28I'm not.
22:49Can't hold back already?
22:51Hm.
22:52The last vampire left in the world.
22:55When you think about it, I scored big with that 100 creds.
22:58They say the best hunters often appear as prey.
23:02You're that hunter, aren't you?
23:03This SSS rank ghost is really something else.
23:07At least when it comes to how difficult it is to handle.
23:10Affinity.
23:11Zero.
23:14Huh?
23:15What are you doing?
23:18What?
23:20What?
23:20What?
23:21What?
23:22What?
23:22What?
23:22You're free.
23:24Congratulations, host.
23:25Mission complete.
23:26Reward immortality.
23:31Yes.
23:32With immortality, clearing instances is basically cheating.
23:36Lilith's affinity has increased by 20.
23:38Reward.
23:39SS rank instance.
23:40The high school map.
23:42The high school?
23:43Isn't that instance Commander Glade mentioned?
23:47Looks like we were chosen.
23:56Force teleportation?
23:58This is the SS rank instance to high school?
24:06Why is it you again, Merlin?
24:10Zeke, don't say any more.
24:11Don't forget.
24:13Uncle Cyril.
24:15Shut up!
24:16You...
24:17Now that he's hot stuff, you're trying to get close to him?
24:20You tramp!
24:22The class bell already rang.
24:24Why is it still so noisy?
24:26Capturable target detected.
24:28Subject.
24:29Teacher Diane Sloan.
24:31Ghost rank.
24:32S rank.
24:32Affinity.
24:33Zero.
24:36Don't you know the class rules?
24:41First class starts now.
24:43Everyone, take out your textbooks.
24:46Turn to page 44.
24:50I...
24:51I don't have a textbook.
24:52Am I going to die?
24:54Help!
24:55I don't have a textbook either.
24:57This ghost is definitely going to kill us.
25:02Looks like some students came unprepared.
25:05Since this is your first day here,
25:07I'll let it slide.
25:09But starting tomorrow,
25:11any repeat defense will be handled according to school rules.
25:15Class begins now.
25:17Today's lesson is Fundamentals of Ghost Energy, Chapter 4.
25:21Energy Detection and Transformation.
25:23Remember this.
25:24For now, you only need to master one thing.
25:27Feel the color of the energy and its temperature.
25:29Generally speaking, energy that feels warm and calm is relatively safe.
25:34You can try to communicate with it or use it.
25:36But energy that feels cold agitates you and full of malice.
25:40Should be avoided or maneuver within its rules.
25:43Head-on confrontation is the dumbest choice.
25:46This information is pretty useful.
25:48Looks like this instance isn't just a killing ground.
25:51We'll have a short quiz now.
25:53All questions come from today's lessons.
25:55Total score is 100.
25:56Passing is 60.
26:21All answers are correct and explanations are clear.
26:24You've got a strong grasp of ghost energy.
26:26You're a good student.
26:28Target.
26:29Subject.
26:30Venus right.
26:31Affinity increased by 20.
26:32Current affinity, 20.
26:34Reward.
26:35The high school class schedule.
26:37With this schedule, I should be able to handle surprises better.
26:41Three minutes left to turn your paper in.
26:43If you don't pass, you'll get punished during night study.
26:55An entire floor full of players.
26:58This instance is way bigger than I imagined.
27:04What's the plan next?
27:07Next up is art class, as in the lab building.
27:12We should get moving now.
27:16I thought an SS rank instance would be terrifying.
27:18But it's just classes and quizzes.
27:21Being struck by the pointer felt like nothing.
27:23Yeah.
27:24As long as we behave and pay attention, there shouldn't be any danger.
27:29The pointer doesn't leave wounds but a mark.
27:33Looks like getting hit by it puts some kind of mark on you.
27:37That's probably not a good thing.
27:39Since you think it's easy, good luck then.
27:42Lilith, let's go.
27:47He's just putting on an act.
27:50Attention, all students.
27:52Art class will begin in 10 minutes.
27:54Points will be deducted for being late.
27:56Where's the art class held?
27:58No idea.
27:59Let's hurry and see if there's a school map.
28:02What's with the points?
28:03Our teacher just told us about it.
28:05If your points hit zero, you'll get wiped out.
28:09We need to get to the art room fast.
28:11The real danger of this instance is probably just beginning.
28:20It's a huge school and they found a place in town.
28:23Looks like these guys are experienced players.
28:36Capturable target detected.
28:38Subject, art teacher Venus Wright.
28:41Post rank, S rank.
28:43Affinity, zero.
28:44I put a lot of work into preparing this class.
28:47But only five students showed up on time.
28:50Ah, what a shame.
29:02Fred Lindon, Sean Graves, Bryce Hutton, Merlin Klein, Lilith.
29:09I'll remember all of you.
29:11As my first group of students, I'll be giving you special attention from now on.
29:16I went to the dean and picked up some rule breakers.
29:20They'll do well as models for a drawing class.
29:23You could call it recycling waste.
29:26Don't you agree?
29:30The highest form of art is the moment the flame of life goes out.
29:35The body he slowly dissipates.
29:38And the skin gradually turns pale and cold.
29:43In the end, it finally freezes into an absolute stillness.
29:50That's the perfect work of art.
29:53Miss, I have a suggestion.
29:56Go on.
29:57Instead of studying these rough, unfinished materials, why don't we observe a finished ultimate masterpiece instead, Miss, as a ghost.
30:06Isn't your body the perfect example of eternal beauty?
30:10What we want to learn is the beauty within your perfect form.
30:18Eternal beauty?
30:20My body?
30:21Venus's affinity increased by 20.
30:23Art demands dedication.
30:25If you won't even show your ghost form, how can we trust this class has any value?
30:29Oh, okay.
30:32All right.
30:38Not there.
30:39That tickles.
30:41No, don't.
30:42Stop now.
30:43That guy's the real deal.
30:45That Merlin guy.
30:47What is he even doing to that ghost?
30:49The young ones are impressive.
30:52Very impressive.
31:00So that's where our ghost's weak spot is.
31:04Venus's affinity increased by 40.
31:06Current affinity, 40.
31:08Reward, midnight remedial class pass.
31:13You saved those people.
31:17Breaking school rules means breaking instance rules.
31:20They're not making it through the night.
31:23Good work today, everyone.
31:26Wrap it up.
31:26Class is ending.
31:28One more thing.
31:29Before class tomorrow, I want everyone to submit a figure drawing.
31:48Hey, bro.
31:50Let's talk.
31:50Name's Fred Linden, sports major.
31:54You've got a sharp mind.
31:55How about we team up?
31:57I'm built like a tank.
31:58If you need someone to run errands, scout ahead, or handle tasks that need hard labor, say the word and
32:03I'll do it.
32:04Team up?
32:05In an instance, the most unpredictable isn't the bizarre rules, it's human nature.
32:12Temporary alliances fall apart fast once interests are on the table.
32:17Hey, I won't beat around the bush.
32:20Hey, I won't beat around the bush.
32:20When I saw you turn in your paper first, I knew you weren't an ordinary plater.
32:24I only managed to find the art classroom because I was following you.
32:27You've got the brains, and I've got the stamina.
32:31Together, we'd be unstoppable.
32:33Teaming up, anyone can brag.
32:36If you want to recruit someone, you'd better show some sincerity.
32:40Merlin, I picked up a student handbook earlier.
32:44It seems to record some basic rules of this creepy school.
32:48I'll use this as my bargaining chip to join your team.
32:51But on one condition, everyone on the team must share their information.
32:57A student handbook?
32:59Rules and clues?
33:01Well, well.
33:02That's a pretty precise offer.
33:07In a place like this, rules are above everything else.
33:16Rules for rules?
33:18Fair enough.
33:19I've got a detailed map of the school grounds.
33:22It roughly marks the now major buildings and roads.
33:26Ha ha ha.
33:28Well, I don't have anything valuable, except for a few life-saving trinkets.
33:35This golden talisman can be activated automatically in a crisis, blocking any ghost attack below S-rank.
33:45Um, I...
33:46Dude, all I have is really good stamina.
33:49How about you let me slide this once?
33:50I don't mind going first in fights or scouting.
33:53Hey, what about you?
33:54What are you planning to trade for the intel?
33:57Someone over there has been watching us.
34:02Damn.
34:17Whoever it is, now is not the time to dig into it.
34:19Based on the map markings and the time estimate, it should be dinner time now.
34:23We need to get to the cafeteria first.
34:36In a S-rank sanatorium instance, the cafeteria food is all crawling with maggots,
34:42and mixed with unidentified human tissue.
34:58Looks pretty appetizing, but who knows what you'd turn into after eating it.
35:04Oh, right.
35:05I've still got some supplies here.
35:07Don't be picky.
35:09It's filling stuff.
35:10At least, better than eating those weird stuff.
35:13Let's check first if there are any clear rules about the cafeteria and night study.
35:17Hey, where's that blonde girl?
35:20The one named Lilith.
35:22Why didn't she come over?
35:23Isn't she going to eat?
35:24Before we came here, she went up in another direction.
35:28Alone?
35:28Wouldn't that be dangerous?
35:30Worried about her?
35:31She's an S-S-S-rank ghost.
35:33She could do literally anything here.
35:37Instead of worrying about her, you should worry about whether she might get bored
35:40and decide to snack on a student to replenish her nutrients.
35:52I found that S-S-rank ghost.
35:56A pitiful woman.
35:58She's in the cemetery behind the school.
36:10Damn it!
36:12How is this guy not dead yet?
36:17Zeke!
36:19I'm scared!
36:38Now, I'll announce today's test results for Ghost Energy.
36:45Students who failed will be punished.
36:47You'll have to run laps on the track until night study is over.
36:51Wilson Wyatt, 61 marks.
36:53Pass.
36:55Susan Leed, 43 marks.
36:58Fail.
37:02Josie Quinn, 39 marks.
37:06Fail.
37:15Miss, miss, but outside, it's so scary out there.
37:20Can I not run?
37:24Of course.
37:26Rules are rigid, but we are flexible.
37:29If you can find someone willing to take your place,
37:32you can stay in the classroom and study.
37:35Zeke, help me!
37:38You failed the test.
37:40Don't drag me into it.
37:48Merlin, I know I've been terrible back then.
37:51I was really immature.
37:53But now, you're the only one who can help me.
37:58You're so capable that you can even clear an S-rank instance.
38:02Going to the track is nothing for you.
38:05Right?
38:07Just, just help me, for whole time's sake, okay?
38:12Huh?
38:13Once we clear this instance, I can be your girlfriend again.
38:17I know, you've become much stronger now.
38:20But I swear, I'll be more sensible, more considerate, too.
38:24Please, help me just this once, okay?
38:33Yes, Merlin, what's the matter?
38:36Miss Leng, as the only student to get a perfect score on this test, may I ask you a favor?
38:45You're the first student who actually dare to ask me that.
38:52All right, go ahead.
38:54I like to volunteer to supervise these students on the track for you.
38:59I can help ease your workload and also keep these underperforming students motivated.
39:03Target, ghost teacher, Diane Sloan.
39:06Affinity increased by 40.
39:08Current affinity, 60.
39:10Reward, the high school teacher ID.
39:13Hmm, very well, Merlin, you're really sensible.
39:18You're so thoughtful.
39:20And you care about your peers, too.
39:22Everyone heard that, right?
39:23Learn from Merlin.
39:25This is the kind of student our school needs.
39:31Right.
39:33Those who failed the test, line up outside the classroom and wait for Merlin to lead and supervise you.
39:40Merlin, wait.
39:43Take this with you.
39:44With my teacher ID.
39:47Those things on the track won't bother you.
39:51Thank you, miss.
39:55Merlin, please!
39:57Let me go back!
39:59That's not up to me.
40:01If you go back, you'll break the rules.
40:04Don't you care about what we had back then?
40:07Just let me off this once.
40:11Look, those ghost zombies are coming.
40:14If you don't want to die, you better start running.
40:21Help!
40:22If they catch up, we'll be torn to pieces.
40:25Everyone, run faster!
40:27They're almost on us!
40:29Please!
40:30Stop chasing us!
40:34Merlin!
40:35Let me stay by your side!
40:37I'm scared!
40:38I won't ever do it again!
40:46Supervising!
40:47Supervising?
40:47No.
40:48This is a perfect chance to explore.
40:50A cemetery a little is mentioned,
40:52and a ghost in the clock tower from earlier.
40:55I can use this chance to investigate.
41:01It needs a key.
41:02The shape's unusual.
41:04Doesn't seem like an ordinary key.
41:16Ghost file.
41:18Headless ghost.
41:19B rank.
41:22Oh no.
41:24Its presence is far stronger than the minions on the track.
41:27Fighting it would be unwise.
41:52So that's how it is.
41:53We must stay in the designated locations during class hours.
41:55If you remained outdoors during free time,
41:57these things will target us.
42:10What?
42:11Co-ed dorms?
42:13What kind of crazy rule is this?
42:16The handbook says lights out at 9pm sharp.
42:19There's a dorm check again at 10pm,
42:21and again at midnight.
42:22You have to be in your own bed and respond.
42:26No leaving after lights out.
42:28No peeking during checks.
42:32There's a lot of rules, huh?
42:35Merlin?
42:37Come to my room tonight.
42:51A top student like you deserves special attention.
42:55I'll help you with some extra lessons.
43:01Dude, what's going on?
43:03Is that ghost interested in you?
43:06Merlin, you...
43:07Huh.
43:08Actual lessons in the middle of the night
43:10probably isn't as simple as it seems.
43:13Here you are.
43:14It's a long night,
43:16and I'm bored.
43:18That's why I called you over to pass time.
43:23Let's play a game.
43:25A game you humans played as kids.
43:28Rock, paper, scissors.
43:31Sure.
43:32But just playing isn't fun.
43:35Let's make it interesting.
43:39One round for a finger.
43:42How about that?
43:44Or maybe you prefer an eyeball?
43:47Alright.
43:50Then get ready.
43:53No need to get ready.
43:55Miss Wright,
43:55I choose rock for the first round.
44:00Rock, scissors, paper.
44:03Oh, you actually chose rock.
44:06That doesn't count.
44:08Best two out of three.
44:10Alright.
44:10This round,
44:11I'll still choose rock.
44:13Rock, scissors, paper.
44:16Best three out of five.
44:17Now that's the real rule.
44:19Rock, scissors, paper.
44:23Oh, that's it.
44:25I'm done.
44:26You win.
44:27Go on.
44:28Tell me which finger you want.
44:30Or do you prefer my eyes?
44:32I don't want those.
44:33I want the brass key you're carrying.
44:37You're annoyingly smart, Merlin.
44:40I actually thought you'd try to
44:42ask for something to hurt me.
44:45That would have broken the rule
44:47about respecting teachers.
44:49Then I could have been justified
44:51to punish you.
44:54Oh, what a shame.
44:57Here.
44:58There you go.
44:59I don't even know
45:00what this old key is for.
45:02I just keep it because it looks nice.
45:05How about...
45:06Affinity increased by 20.
45:08Current affinity, 65.
45:10You've obtained key clue A.
45:15Alright.
45:16Since you're so clever,
45:18I'll give you a tip.
45:20At midnight,
45:22the cemetery behind the school opens.
45:25If...
45:26you want to meet
45:28our respected principal,
45:31you can try your luck.
45:32She'll definitely adore you.
45:35You're a top student.
45:38After all...
45:44Are you heading to the hill?
45:46Uh, Lilith?
45:47What are you doing here?
45:49How does she make no sound at all?
45:51She's like a ghost.
45:52I sense it.
45:54There's an SS-ranked curse core
45:55in the backyard.
45:56It's related to some
45:57lost relic of my family.
45:59What's your plan?
46:00I'll go to the clock tower first,
46:02then the hill.
46:03Got it.
46:18Shocking news.
46:19Top school principal accused of massive bribery.
46:22The education world is in uproar.
46:24Tragic news.
46:25Extremists set fire on campus.
46:27The former principal and her family died.
46:29The attack may have been revenge over the accusations.
46:31Justice finally served.
46:32After a thorough investigation,
46:34the bribery charges were completely false.
46:36The culprit has been arrested.
46:38So the woman at the hill,
46:40it's her.
46:41I get it now.
46:42The principal's family was killed.
46:44She can't get over being unjustly killed.
46:45The man who has been spying on us
46:47is her husband's lingering spirit.
46:50His grudge trapped him into the clock tower.
46:52And he couldn't stop monitoring the school.
46:55The vampire seal of truth is indeed here.
46:58It reveals the deepest desire of whoever touches it.
47:01This is also why that woman's grudge has manifested into such a massive instance.
47:11Thank God you're finally here.
47:13I thought we'd never find you.
47:15During dorm checks,
47:16we use Bryce's paper decoy to deceive them.
47:19Since we're teammates,
47:20we can't let you risk your life alone.
47:22The curse here is off the charts.
47:25S.S. rank.
47:26We can't take this lightly.
47:29They're loyal.
47:31But what comes next could be brutal.
47:34Focus on your own survival.
47:35Shameless thief!
47:39You shall pay for this.
47:44You thief!
47:46Hold on.
47:48Shameless thief!
47:49Hang in there.
47:50She's trying to distract us with pain.
47:52You shall pay for this.
47:58Her power comes from grievance and suffering.
48:02Ordinary methods won't work.
48:03Use the seal of truth.
48:04Show her the follow-up news.
48:06May blood guide the way.
48:08Reveal the truth.
48:22No!
48:24Look carefully.
48:25You shall pay for this.
48:26You're not the one who should be condemned.
48:29It's those who set the fire.
48:30Your grudge will only trap you and the ones you love.
48:33Your husband is still there,
48:35watching the school every day.
48:37Do you still want this hatred to consume everything?
48:39Our names have been cleared.
48:45Thank you for bringing us home.
48:54Congratulations, host.
48:56You've cleared SS Rank High School Instance.
48:58Completion time, 16 hours, 37 minutes, 42 seconds.
49:02New world record.
49:03Reward, 100 creds and a queen chess piece.
49:06Damn, the principal's family is really tragic.
49:10This is such a heartbreaking story.
49:14They died being wronged.
49:16And ended up as resentful ghosts.
49:19This is so sad.
49:24Turns out, paranormal stuff isn't scary.
49:27Human evil is worse.
49:29The school itself is a massive tomb,
49:31buried with the principal's painful memories.
49:51Welcome back.
49:52I knew it.
49:54I knew you'd make it through.
49:59Merlin, you're back.
50:01You promised to buy me candy for life.
50:04No backing out.
50:17Thank you for helping me recover my clan's relic.
50:27Merlin, run!
50:29They're trying to kill you!
50:31Commander Glade!
50:32Commander Glade, he...
50:33He's trying to protect you, but...
50:35But...
50:36They killed him!
50:37They killed him!
50:39They killed Commander Glade!
50:41Run!
50:43Run!
50:43Run!
50:45Run!
50:46Run!
50:46Run!
50:48Run!
