Chapter 350: The Diary Desired by All Three Parties
In fact, Belfast didn’t need to pray to the god to know the answer.
She was just a lowly servant, which means she could be replaced, but for the gods, acquiring that diary was absolutely necessary.
After hesitating, Belfast finally spoke up for her beliefs, saying, "You let go first, and if I meet the requirements, I can offer myself as a gift to you."
Disappointed, Chu Jiang let go of her hand and said, "You truly are an incurable fanatic to agree to this."
Yes, it was just a little test, and Chu Jiang was indeed tempted, but he’s not crazy. How could he willingly give the Ghost Diary to "Sleep Talking"?
As he had expected, the answer he received confirmed that faith came first for Belfast, and she would truly sacrifice herself for it.
"What do you mean?" Belfast frowned, realizing that she was being deceived by this guy.
"Nothing, I just wanted to see your reaction, and now I have seen it."
After saying that, Chu Jiang waved his hand and said, "Let’s forget about this for now, I won’t lay a hand on you guys."
"Or rather, now it doesn’t make much sense to harm you. My goal is Sleep Talking. Once I finish dealing with the false god, it’ll be next!"
After saying that, Chu Jiang turned around and walked away.
"Wait!" Belfast tried to stop him.
However, Chu Jiang didn’t turn back. He just waved his hand again, "I don’t know your experiences, nor do I know why you are so devoted to this ghost."
"But let me remind you, Sleep Talking has a special ability to make anyone who hears its whispers believe in it from the bottom of their hearts."
"So, your faith, your enthusiasm, may not entirely come from your own heart. Think about it carefully."
Belfast hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. Obviously, she didn’t believe Chu Jiang’s words.
However, this was the first time she had heard of "Sleep Talking," was it the name or code name of a god?
After Chu Jiang had completely gone far away, Belfast straightened her wrinkled long skirt caused by this impolite man. Then she turned around gracefully and looked at Jade, "Do you hate me?"
Jade was at a loss for how to answer. She wanted to say she hated Belfast, but she couldn’t. After all, she had grown up under the attention of this pope since she was four or five years old, and he held a high place in her heart.
When Jade didn’t answer, Belfast calmly said, "It’s time to tell you some truths. Yes, the god we believe in is actually a ghost, but does it matter?"
"Whether it’s a ghost or a god, it’s just a human definition. I am certain that the god will redeem everything."
"And in order to achieve this goal, I am willing to do anything, including using you."
Jade bit her lip and asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Were all your care for me and your reprimands just an act?"
"Of course not, I actually quite like you, my obedient child," Belfast smiled. "It’s just that it doesn’t conflict with the plan I have set."
Upon hearing this answer, Jade felt relieved yet also a sense of powerlessness.
Finally, she nodded slowly, "I will do as you arrange, if it’s necessary sacrifice…"
Belfast looked approvingly, then she felt a bit of a headache. "The plan has changed, I will go back and pray to god, hoping for whispers of grace."
Even though Belfast was the Pope, she rarely heard the voice of god. Most of the time, it came through messages written on paper, or revelations in dreams.
So, after the last unsuccessful action against Chu Jiang, she felt very excited when she heard God’s voice through prayer.
——————–
Returning to the Champs-Élysées Hotel, Chu Jiang lied on the big bed, still thinking about what had happened before.
First of all, Chu Jiang became even more certain that out of all the women he had met so far, only two of them could give him a special feeling.
One is Chen Keai, who can provide him with mental relaxation and enjoyment.
The other is Belfast, whom he has only met twice, but she can make him feel excited and desire to conquer.
Of course, the current Belfast is not normal, and Chu Jiang doesn’t want to use the power of the ghost to have her. So, he decides to focus on collecting the two pages of the scattered Ghost Diary for now.
Secondly, Bell… Let’s call her Sister Bel, cause that name is too long. It seems like a place name from England? I remember it’s the capital of Northern Ireland.
Was she born in that place? Who taught her Mandarin? And it seems like she also has some Asian heritage, based on her choice of Jade…
Going off-topic, Sister Bel said that he cannot be killed.
To put it accurately, this information was revealed to Sister Bel through sleep talking.
Why did Chu Jiang have such a big reaction at that time? It’s because he thought of a possibility: there is only one thing in this world that cannot be killed, and that is a ghost.
Could he be a ghost himself? That’s too unbelievable, there must be something wrong with this.
In the end, the special nature of sleep talking far exceeded what Chu Jiang had anticipated.
He was not entirely convinced that the prediction ability of the ghost was so unbelievable, but there was one piece of information that Sister Bel revealed which was crucial.
She said that the Ghost Diary had taken away the power of Sleep Talking, which might be the reason why Sleep Talking wanted the diary – to regain its full power.
And Ghost Diary itself spans three domains: sealing, predicting, and controlling, even the old man said it was very special.
Could it be that the actual ability of Ghost Diary is not these three, but stealing?
Or perhaps there is only one thing that dominates this: The so-called stealing of power is just a manifestation of dominance, just like the previous Ghost Bride who could forcibly control the goddess statue and the power of time reversal.
But the diary itself should have the ability to seal, otherwise how could it seal ghosts from the beginning…
Then there is one last possibility: although the page with the false god seal and the page with the Sleep Talking seal have been intentionally torn off, these two ghosts later unexpectedly gained liberation.
But this liberation is incomplete and has a tearing effect, causing a part of their authority to remain on the Ghost Diary, thereby strengthening its original abilities.
Anyway, no matter which possibility, the Ghost Diary in Chu Jiang’s hands is a very desirable item. It is likely that not only Sleep Talking wants it, even the false god desires it.
In this case, Chu Jiang should be careful when he enters El Paso City. It’s very likely that he will be targeted by the false god even before he discovers anything unusual.
