Chapter 471 The Ghost

Creak…

Isaac slowly opened the door and stepped inside. The air was quite chilly, but it was fresh without even a speck of dust clogging up his nose.

However… Then something unexpected occurred.

Smack!

An invisible punch landed on Isaac's cheek!

''Eh?'' Isaac glanced to his right, and his cheek had a fist mark. However, he barely felt it, like someone was trying to tickle him.

''Someone punched me?''

Smack!

Then, another punch landed on his chest, but Isaac stood his ground with a nonchalant expression.

''Stop it.'' Isaac waved his hand. However, his hand only touched air and nothing else.

''Hahaha, weak!'' An arrogant voice echoed across the store. Then, an outline of a ghost appeared on the ceiling.

The Ghost was a muscular man with a buzzcut and arrogant-looking face. He had a long nose bridge with sharp eyebrows.

The Ghost raised his chin like he was above everyone else.

Isaac rubbed his cheek, ''Why did you hit me?''

''This is my house, and you are trespassing!'' The Ghost shouted and reeled in his fist. Then, suddenly he disappeared and appeared behind Isaac. His punch landed on his back. However, it didn't faze the white-haired man even the slightest.

''Stop it, annoying.'' Isaac's lightning-fast punch shredded through the air and went straight through the Ghost's face.

''Tch…''

''Hahaha, weak!'' The Ghost showed his tongue and floated back to the ceiling, ''You can't hit me~''

''Hahahaha…'' Isaac's calm laughter reverberated across the building. However, suddenly the ground exploded as he jumped straight towards the ceiling with a smiling face.

He reeled in both his fists and threw thousands of punches toward the Ghost. However, each punch went straight through.

Still, Isaac didn't stop, and the speed of his punches increased. Each punch was strong enough to kill an ordinary person. However, they were useless against the Ghost.

''You cannot hit me!'' The Ghost laughed and punched toward Isaac's left cheek.

As the punch got closer, suddenly Isaac pulled his head back, and the Ghost's fist missed him!

''Eh?'' The Ghost's eyes shook, ''Y-You dodged my mighty punch?''

''Mighty?'' Isaac grinned, ''Even my little brother's punch is stronger!''

''L-Liar!'' The Ghost's face turned red.

''The Ghost's Weakness Number 1, if they get angry, they return to the world of living for a split second.''

''Eh?'' The Ghost's ghostly body started having real flesh. However, as soon as the flesh returned, it began fading away!

''Split second is all I need!'' Isaac's bulging fist smashed through the Ghost's chest!

''UGH!'' It was the first time since his death when the Ghost felt true pain. He looked down at his chest and saw a muscular arm going straight through his body.

''I-…'' The Ghost's flesh body disappeared, and he returned to his ghostly form. He slowly floated back to the ground with a pale face and his palm on his chest.

Isaac landed on the ground with lips curved upward, ''You done?''

''I-… I am sorry.'' The Ghost knelt on the ground with his forehead touching the floor, ''My mighty punch is no match for you.''

Isaac looked at the destroyed ground and asked, ''Can you fix the floor?''

''Eh? Oh… sure.'' The Ghost phased through the floor, and suddenly the destroyed part of the wooden floor got fixed.

Then, the Ghost returned from underground and returned to his kneeling posture.

''Interesting…'' Isaac thought aloud and asked, ''You can fix anything?''

''W-Well, yes, everything that isn't living.'' The Ghost answered with a timid tone.

''Alright, from now on, you are my butler!'' Isaac pointed at the Ghost with a grin.

''Eh?!'' The Ghost's jaw dropped, ''B-Butler?!''

''Yeah, I need one.'' Isaac trailed his finger on the window frame, and slight dirt got stuck on his finger, ''If there is someone to clean for me, I can spend time to do something else.''

''O-Oh, can I refuse?'' The Ghost asked with the twitching eyebrow.

''No.'' Isaac replied, ''If you do good work… I can make you human again.''

''What?!'' The Ghost jolted up, ''H-How?! You are only Human!''

''Hehe… Ever heard of Fountain of Life?'' Isaac held the keys to the building in his hand and tossed them up. After the keys landed back on his palm, he tossed them back up.

''Fountain of Life… Isn't that just a myth?'' The Ghost asked with a frown, ''No one had found the Fountain of Life here, not even after the ten greatest explorers went through the entire Realm.''

''That's right, Fountain of Life is a myth.'' Isaac leaned against the wall and smiled, ''Reason why you guys haven't found it is because it's not in here. It's in a place called Dungeon Realm…''

''Dungeon Realm?''

''Yes, back in the days, I thought it was in Summer Realm, but when I tried to do the Dungeon to go back to the Fountain of Life… The dungeon was completely different!''

''Thus, my long research began, and I found out a place called Dungeon Realm… A place where all Dungeons were created…''

''Dungeon Realm…'' The Ghost said aloud. He thought that he was learning something that was way above his pay grade.

''Dungeons have to have a place where they spawn!'' Isaac pointed towards the Ghost and said, ''Ever heard of Spawn Dimension?''

The Ghost shook his head.

''I thought Spawn Dimension was a place where only monsters spawned. However, I was wrong.

''Everything spawns on the Spawn Dimension, even the Dungeons. That place's origins are still mysterious, but that's the place where the evil lurks… After the gateways to the Spawn Dimension appeared in the White Online…

''They corrupted everything that resembled the monsters of the dimension. Thus, the wild animals in White Online became semi-monsters.

''All the Dungeons are in that dimension, and also the Dungeon where the Fountain of Life, and… that person is!''

''T-Then, how should we find it?'' The Ghost thought it was quite hard to find it then.

''Good question, but I don't need to find it.'' Isaac pulled out a teleportation pearl from his inventory and grinned, ''What if I have already been there?''

''W-W-What… You have seen the Fountain of Life?!''

''Yes… and, I think it's time for me to visit my old friend…'' Isaac turned to the Ghost and smiled, ''Will you be my butler?''

''Y-Yes!'' The Ghost kowtowed three times and snapped his fingers. The entire building was suddenly shining, and every dirt disappeared. With only one snap, the entire building got cleaned.
