HH Chapter 33
Lena's face, as always, was impeccably beautiful. I couldn't believe he and that ghost outside were the same kind of being. I now realized how fortunate I was to have first encountered a humanoid ghost with all its facial features–eyes, nose, and mouth–in the right places. Lena frowned as I stumbled down the stairs, tearfully recounting about what had happened in the hallway. “What are you talking about? Explain it clearly. You met ‘my friend’?” “The ghost, I mean, the…-

It seems like I’ll need to buy more soon. But I couldn't leave the house without Haylan’s permission. Supplies were delivered once every two weeks; would it be possible to leave and come back in with them? “Do you think you can activate that?” “Huh?” I’d been doodling a magic circle while lost in thought when Haylan’s voice made me raise my head. “It’s written in the book, so check it.” “Check what?” “The precautions.” Haylan said, scrunching up the…-

HH Chapter 31
At that moment, a notification popped up, informing me that a quest hint had been generated. ‘Has it been that long already?’ Hints. A system that randomly offered advice when more than half the time limit for a timed quest had passed. ‘Those around me….’ …Which is just one person right now. I looked up at Lena. When our eyes met, he didn’t avoid my gaze and just stared down at me. A brief silence fell between us. “What is it now?” Lena furrowed his brows,…-

HH Chapter 30
‘What is he looking for?’ He had given him a defensive magic book, pretending not to know what he was looking for, but he was still searching. He was definitely a suspicious person. The man’s presence in this house clearly had an ulterior motive. But… ‘It doesn’t matter.’ Now that his identity was exposed, there was no point in hiding anymore. He had completely opened the library not only to observe Chahyun’s reaction but also to have more time to observe him. The more the…-

HH Chapter 29
That wasn't just a rumor. There really were ghosts in this house that that they didn't know about! And that ghost…rips people apart. ‘Crazy….’ I politely asked the servant, “Excuse me, but could I borrow some salt? And a small knife, and a ritual doll, please?” “Pardon?” <101 Ways to Exorcise Ghosts, Believe It or Not> I held up the book dramatically, but she just laughed. She must have thought I was joking, even though I was seriously considering trying it. “You…-

Different mages have different styles of drawing magic circles. And my magic circles was a highly condensed version, also known as “shortcut magic.” I’d studied various magic books, identified the common framework, and extracted the elements necessary for activating a spell. Then, I modified the formulas to my liking, keeping only the necessary components. As mentioned earlier, there were three main components to a magic circle: the magic's property, the required amount of mana, and the range…-

HH Chapter 27
…Huh? I woke up the next morning, puzzled by the system window that popped up. ‘Why did it suddenly increase so much?’ Moreover, one of the bad endings had disappeared overnight. That was probably because of the ghost. Wow, it seems I could have died of a heart attack if I’d been even more startled yesterday. Happy about my unexpected gain, I checked Haylan’s current affection status. ‘Was there something that happened last night that would warrant a 10-point…-

HH Chapter 26
The ghost pressed his lips into a thin line at my words. He looked like he was contemplating how to kill me. I meekly lowered my gaze, realizing I had been too impertinent. My body trembled uncontrollably again. “Does the owner of the house know you’re here?” “Which homeowner…? You, or that kid?” “……Him.” Oblivious to the disapproval in the man’s gaze, I shook my head. ‘As if Haylan would know….’ That kid’s asleep at this hour. I shook my head again and…-

HH Chapter 25
“Yes, come in.” Knock, knock. Chahyun responded to the knock at the door, and it clicked open. “Guest, your meal is rea…….” “…….” “…….” Yur’s jaw dropped, her words trailing off as her eyes met Haylan’s, who was sitting on Chahyun’s lap. Our Young Master, why is he here…?! Her eyes darted between the two, silently screaming. Haylan, feeling strangely embarrassed, avoided her gaze. He felt a bit wronged, but he didn’t feel the need to explain…-

HH Chapter 24
Haylan, with an annoyed expression, subtly pulled his hand away from mine and added, “On one condition.” “What is it?” I wasn’t surprised at all. I knew he wouldn't show me any kindness without something in return. He hesitated for a moment, then asked in a slightly quieter voice, “Do you have more of that… thing you gave me yesterday?” The thing I gave him yesterday? I thought for a moment and remembered giving Haylan a bag of ginger cookies yesterday. Haylan held…-
