CHAPTER 2 



Psycho: I can’t see a thing in this room master. Do you see a light switch?

[K] Merp: …

Psycho: Ah that’s better. Oh wow. This is quite a fancy room don’t you think master?

[K] Merp: …

Psycho: I know we’re supposed to focus on finding Mysterious Notes, but it wouldn’t hurt to enjoy the beauty of the room right?

[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Okay, okay let’s get exploring.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The trio search the entire room to find Mysterious Notes. Even with Merp’s new summon, Jikan, they only managed to find 5 Notes.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: I’m sorry, but that’s all the notes we could find master.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: I wouldn’t worry about it too much. I’m sure there are more floors than this one. Look, a staircase has appeared.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho and Merp stare at where Jikan is pointing at. Sure enough, a staircase had seemingly materialized out of thin air.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Oh wow, good job Jikan. Come on Master, let’s keep going.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: No, I’m quite sure it wasn’t there before. It probably appeared after we searched the entire room.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: ...

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Floor 1: Clear

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: What the, this is an exact replica of the room before!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: You’re right master! The staircase is gone.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: If it’s a replica, we should be able to get 5 more Notes right?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: I don’t think this event works like that. Although the rooms are the same, I’m sure there’s something more than meets the eye.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Oh, sorry. I’ll start searching immediately.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The trio search the room. Just as Psycho predicted, even though the furniture was located in the same place, the notes were found in different locations.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: 5 more notes. I’m starting to think that each room only has 5.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Another staircase has materialized again.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Maybe the staircase appears after we have found the 5 notes scattered in each room.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Wouldn’t that seem too easy though. I’m sure this place is called Slaughterhouse Mansion for a reason.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: What do you think master?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: If you say so…

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: We’re wasting time here, come on let’s just climb the stairs.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Floor 2: Clear

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: The room is an exact replica of the rooms before us. I hope we’re not running in circles and we’re just being lead toward the same room.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Don’t worry so much. You’re doing fine!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Hop? How’d you get in here?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Oh, I’m not really here. I’m just a hologram. See?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop waves her hand straight through Psycho

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Oh. So is there a reason why you’re here?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Yep, just some basic information. Good job on making it to 3F so far. Anyway, at a specified amount of floors, you will encounter Guardian Ghosts who will try to stop you from progressing. If you get beaten by one, you will have to forfeit your basket and leave the event.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: That doesn’t seem fair.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Don’t be so mopey. If you beat the Guardian Ghost enough times, you can recruit that ghost as your daemon!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Really? I’m sure you can beat them easy, right master?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: You might also encounter other spirits who are collecting notes as well.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Wait, so people other than ghost agents are participating in this event?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Yep. You could probably convince those spirits to join your team if you trade them Mysterious Notes. Don’t worry; it won’t affect your grand total. In fact, the summon bell I gave you should help you with that.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Is this true?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Yep, Jikan over here can sense other ghosts in the vicinity.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Eh, but it’s not that useful of an ability.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop: Well, I’m done here. Good luck on your adventure.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Hop disappears in a flash of light.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: Wow, that was a mouthful. Anyway, we better get back to collecting Mysterious Notes.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: eh? You found 4 of them already? We you listening to what Hop said at all master?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: What do you mean that’s what ... Oh never mind.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Hey look, a staircase appeared.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: But that can’t be right, we only found 4 Notes.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Well, the staircase appeared anyway. I guess there are only 4 Notes on this floor.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: I’m not so sure, maybe if we look a bit harder.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho went over to inspect a telephone. Right as he put his hand on it, a set of spikes shot out from the telephone.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Chronofreeze!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: WAH!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan stops time and yanks Psycho out of the way before any harm can befall him.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">[K] Merp: …

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: I’m fine master, but what was with that telephone! That could have injured someone!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Well… at least we know why it’s called Slaughterhouse Mansion.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: You don’t mean …!

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Jikan: Yes I do. Anyway, I guess we’re supposed to move onto the next floor once the staircase appears.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Psycho: What did I get us stuck in master?

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Floor 3: Clear
