Witness Betrayal with My Own Eyes
All along the way, there were nothing but the resentful spirits of the Dubin's Mansion.
Some lost their souls after being killed, while others stood there blankly, unable to react.
More often than not, they died without a complete body, their souls scattered.
Mitch rushed to the backyard and found all the servants lying dead beside his mother. Finally, he found his mother in the corner of the rockery.
The mother was covered in horrifying wounds, all of which were inflicted by knives. Her clothes had long been stained red with blood.
She knelt on the ground, holding her one-year-old brother, and begged for mercy with tears in her eyes.
"Rye... you killed me, it's okay... I won't blame you."
"But, can you spare Jacob? Please... I'm begging you!"
The woman burst into tears and cried, "Jacob is only one year old, he knows nothing. Spare him, please."
"Really, spare him, let him go, he won't remember anything, he became a servant for your family... I beg you to spare his life..."
Jacob in my arms wailed loudly, as a one-year-old child, he truly knew nothing.
He witnessed his own father being hacked to death and his mother covered in blood, the pungent smell filled him with terror.
"Dad... Brother..."
"Brother... Brother!"
The child cried loudly, shouting "brother" from his mouth.
Mitch felt his heart being tightly squeezed, tears welling up as he knelt on the side.
"Jacob, be good. Jacob, don't cry. Brother is here."
"I'm not afraid... It will be over soon, it will pass quickly..."
Mitch hated, hated that he was now just a ghost, unable to do anything.
I could do nothing but watch helplessly!
"Rye... Rye!" he knelt down in front of his friend, trying to make him hear a sound: "Rye, I beg you, I beg you..."
Mitch was rambling, but he could still see his friend expressionless, with indifference in his eyes.
Before going abroad, he used to pat him on the shoulder like brothers, asking him to treat his sister's best friend well after marrying her. At this moment, he feels as unfamiliar as a devil.
"Kill!" he spat out a cold word from his mouth.
"No--"
The blood-stained knife was swung down, splitting the mother and one-year-old brother into two halves...
The young baby, with wide-open eyes, was still calling out for his older brother before he died.
Mitch was in pain... so much pain that his soul felt like it was being torn apart.
He knelt in a daze on the spot, with a buzzing sound in his ears, unable to hear the fear, screams, and despair coming from the Dubin's Mansion.
In his eyes, there were only parents, sister, and brother who never closed their eyes even in death.
His younger brother, who was only one year old, had just learned to call him "brother".
One by one, living lives, just like that, gone, all gone.
After a while, the Dubin's Mansion finally quieted down, and there was a complete silence.
Mitch walked aimlessly in his familiar home, searching for familiar faces.
Any soul or half-soul would do... but except for him, not a single soul was left in the Dubin's Mansion.
The younger sister's body was separated, lying in the garden.
The mother held her younger brother in her arms, and even after death, their bodies maintained the posture of tightly embracing the child.
The father's body lay near the gate of the Dubin's Mansion, indicating that he had gone up to intercept and argue, but it was in vain.

"Gone, all gone." Mitch snapped back to reality from his memories, lowering his gaze.
"Traitors and rebels, their entire family was executed."
After his death, his good reputation did not remain in the world.
The girl Felicity, who said she would only marry him, got married to another son of an important official in the court in the blink of an eye.
Although his mentor has retired, he has already been able to enjoy his retirement.
His friend took his place...
The Dubin's Mansion, apart from leaving behind the name of a traitor, was despised by the people for a thousand years and had nothing else.
Susie was horrified, she never expected that her master would die like this.
"Sorry!" Susie immediately hugged Mitch and choked, "It's Susie's fault, Susie shouldn't have asked..."
This uncovered Master's scar.
She thought that her Master would also be like the evil ghost and perhaps have some stories that were not suitable for other people's lives.
But little did I know it would end so tragically...
Mitch was slightly stunned and slowly raised his hand to cover Susie's head.
"It's okay, it has nothing to do with you."
"After the master died, he wandered in the human world for a while, witnessing all their glory."
Went mad, became a Vile ghost, an evil ghost, and went berserk, transforming into a ghost general, a ghost king, regardless of everything.
After becoming a ghost, he continued to rise against all odds, with the sole purpose of taking the lives of his enemies.
Of course, in the end, he avenged his enemy and was also taken back to the underworld by Yama.
"Seven hundred years later, I witnessed the prosperity and downfall of dynasties, observed those high and mighty individuals who, in the end, were nothing more than fleeting spirits after death."
"You... Yama showed me kindness, pulling me out of the abyss."
Mitch stopped talking at this point and turned to look at Susie. A gentle smile appeared on his face as he said, "The story is over, children."
Susie, with tears in her eyes, hugged her master tightly, feeling heartbroken.
Mitch joked, "What's the matter? Even the master didn't cry, and you're crying like this?"
But the more he did this, the sadder Susie became...
