  1. if i were still unsure about the staff not being human, then them secretly stuffing sachets of salt and sugar definitely blows away all hesitation! who is the ghost? i can’t say that the ghost already appeared because the little baby from the last instance showed up late (then again, his existence was known from the very beggining). i will make a wild guess. the ghost is ‘gu xingye’.

    we’ve made it halfway through this arc. i wonder what else there is in store fot us.

    love the art! they are very Expression. the kitty most especially so.

    • That’s my guess at the moment as well. He is certainly passionate enough to be labeled as “obsessed”. And he is trying to help but no one is listening to him. Like Cassandra from Greek mythology . Which is why he’s a ghost: so he can fulfill his obsession of helping that he didn’t happen the first time. And I suppose it’s possible he’s the true owner of the manor cause he doesn’t seem to be a villager.

    • My bet on ‘ghost’ is either the violinist or the ‘coward middle age man’ he is only who was described if i am not wrong ans as for owner i think it’s the crazy guy but let’s see🤓

  2. Thx for the chapter 💜

    My complete guess would be… the violinist??? He is the only one with enough personality and screen time from the background characters I remember…

  3. »However, The mission this time was different.« the mission

    »Other players continue to listen to the news.« continued

    I wonder which NPC the little girl suspects now. Would be funny if it really were RYF lol

    Thx for the ch ٩( >ヮ<)۶ And your fanart is really nice :3

  4. mm, thank you for the chapter! this arc is going full-on, huh? I have my bets on either the old man or the violinist being the ghost. Or, maybe the owner of the manor really is the ghost and that part about her being indifferent is a red herring? Who knows, haha.

  5. A lot of clues in this chapter! Starlight… is it the ship? If the ship and the island “merged”, then it makes sense for the island to sink – like a ship split in half that can’t stay afloat. In that case, the number plate that MC thought was a strange house number, might actually be the room number on a ship!

  6. I really can’t see how grabbing the number plate would help Ren Yifei at all, but he did at least find it earlier

    The art is fantastic! I absolutely love their expressions. Thank you so much for translating! <3
