Chapter 122 - Eliminating the Evil

"Her sins?" Anna looked at Jonathan's back, not understanding what he meant.

"Most people who cling to the world of the living once dead commit the greatest sin of their lives. Your sister has not ascended and is following your son after this ritual was placed in your homes by the same people I took care of eliminating."

Jonathan walked toward the attic and, looking at Anna, asked: "Be honest with me, haven't you seen your sister? You know her sins, you know what she's like, and you must recognize that she somehow committed a very great sin. That must be related to the ritual that was in this house."

"She knew she would lose her child, but she still decided to continue with her pregnancy…" Anna felt terrified, not only because she was looking at the headless corpse of that sister, but because she knew this was caused by her to harm her family.

"Then what do we do?" Felix was trembling, but if there was any way to solve all this, he wanted to know.

"First, tell us, who are you?" Anna asked with a trembling voice.

"My name is Jonathan Belmont. I am an exorcist priest and a hunter, and both your family and many others have suffered from supernatural entities very continuously. I've seen things even the devil himself hasn't seen, so I'd ask you to trust me. Believe me, there are easier ways to throw all of this away, but I want to save your family."

"A priest?"

"That's right, I'm a priest." Jonathan said as he put his black gloves once more on his hands.

This was the problem with entering an operation even before the family themselves knew they were in trouble. They would not only ask many questions, but at first they wouldn't believe anything supernatural was stalking them.

For Jonathan, it was fortunate that there was a clear satanic ritual in this house. Otherwise, he could imagine that this family would not believe him at all.

And just when Jonathan was about to explain what needed to be done, a female scream was heard from the room next door.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Without hesitation, Jonathan jumped from the attic down to the second floor, looked at Wednesday who was pointing at the child infected by the ritual, who was holding an unknown girl by the neck, and seeing him up close, his expression looked very strange.

"He's possessed, don't shoot yet." Jonathan looked at Wednesday, who had her weapon drawn, and took out a silver rope, looking at Jayden while thinking of a way to restrain her.

Now that there was a victim in the middle, Jonathan had to be careful and quick. If he was careless even for a moment, Peter could die.

"Do you really want to harm that boy? From what I know, adult vessels are the best, and I'm sure you don't want to hurt an innocent child." Jonathan smiled grotesquely and pointed at the girl who was being held by the neck by the possessed child.

"Tell me your name…" Jonathan had a doubt about who was possessing the Long family child—Anna's sister or the unconscious boy.

"Jayden, what's wrong with you?" Anna looked at her son, frightened.

"Noooo!!!" Jayden threw the girl against the wall, leaving her unconscious from the impact.

Jonathan stepped forward, the light around them became stronger, and manipulating that energy, he thought of a very feasible plan. "Tell me, do you think you have a chance while you're trapped here?"

"Stupid priest, my lord will kill you once he manifests in this world."

"You can't imagine how many times I've heard a speech like that, but don't worry, I'll make sure to send you back to where you belong." Jonathan took another step forward, and his speed suddenly increased.

Anna, who was standing to the side, saw how Jayden began to float above the ground, and just as she was about to say something, Jonathan, who was running toward him, was hit by many objects that had been in the hallway.

Crack!

But none of this stopped Jonathan, who was a few meters away from Jayden, and at that moment he extended his hands to tie the boy's hands.

"Don't you dare!"

Jonathan, who had managed to put the tool on Jayden, was launched at high speed, crashing into many things before falling on his back.

"Jonathan!" Wednesday shouted, surprised to see Jonathan injured, but she didn't stop pointing her gun at Jayden, who had fallen to his knees.

"I'm fine."

"Of course you're not. Come on, woman, shoot me and free me from this suffering." Jayden looked at Wednesday, who was holding a gun, and begged on his knees.

But knowing the dark spirit was trapped inside Jayden's body, Wednesday lowered the gun and said: "You're just a child. You made a very bad choice."

"He has no other option." Jonathan stood up, brushing the dust off his body.

What he said a moment ago was no lie. The malevolent spirit in Jayden's body had no choice because he was the only vessel available to possess.

By possessing Jayden, who out of curiosity had approached his aunt's grave, the woman who was resentful toward those who had insulted her had possessed the child's body, hoping to disturb the entire community of hypocrites who cursed her.

She didn't want to harm Jayden, but she would use any means to exact her revenge.

That is why Jonathan took advantage of this moment to take control of the situation and bring her under control.

"She can't do anything now, so we will begin the exorcism." Jonathan made a symbol with his hands, which greatly irritated Jayden.

Desperate, she looked at Steve and said: "Father, aren't you going to do something? That priest wants to hurt him, please do something."

"I…" Jayden's father began to hesitate at that moment.

Wednesday, who saw the man's doubt, advised him: "Don't listen to her; that's not your son right now."

"I know, it's just… hard to accept."

Anna stood up after checking on her son's best friend, who had probably come to visit him, and looking at Jayden, she saw that shine in her son's eyes, giving him all the aura of her sister, as if she herself were in front of her and not her son. "Damn witch, I should've never taken you back."

Jayden looked at Anna and sighed: "You've always been a damn disappointment, but it doesn't matter, I'll kill you both."
