10 Years After – 47
For a while, we stood there silently. Even Gerberga was quiet as I held him.
–Creakkkkkkk.
“That is a strange sound.”
“It is.”
Gerberga began to shake violently again.
“I better check to see where it’s coming from.”
“Yes.”
I tried to listen without making any noises.
This was the kind of work that I wished that Grulf would do.
However, he was sleeping so soundly, so it couldn’t be helped.
—ohh….it hurtsss…the pain….helppp…
“There was a voice.”
“Cl-clu-clu-clu-ckk.”
Gerberga was practically vibrating now.
He was really scared. I guess he was strong against vampires but weak to ghosts.
I held onto him tighter.
“Could it be an undead?”
“Perhaps.”
As an illusionist, Luchila was calm, as most Sorcerers would be in this situation.
Ghosts were a good trick for illusionists to use.
It was usually Luchila who used such images to scare other people.
And so he was not afraid.
“It’s over here.”
“Yes.”
I continued to hold Gerberga as Luchila and I went over in the direction that the voice was coming from.
“But there is nothing here…but this was where the voice was coming from.”
“There may be a hidden door.”
Just as I said this, Luchila’s eyes shone.
I understood the excitement that a hidden door aroused.
I was a seasoned Adventurer. And I was also the scout in our old party.
And finding hidden doors was easy for me.
It only took a little searching before I found it.
“Mister Locke, that’s amazing. I couldn’t see it at all.”
“This isn’t the typical kind of hidden door you might find in mansions. It’s a medium dungeon class.”
“Maybe there will be a treasure.”
Luchila was as excited as ever. He had completely forgotten about the ghost now.
I checked for traps before carefully opening the door.
There were stairs that led to the underground.
“Clu-clu-ck-cluck.”
Gerberga was still frightened, and he pressed against me and stretched his neck over my shoulder.
I held Gerberga and slowly climbed down the stairs.
It seemed like there was a room at the bottom.
There were no windows, and it was completely dark. Even with my night eyes, I could not see anything.
“It is very dark down here. Can I create some light?”
“Do it.”
Luchila used the Magic Light spell.
In an instant, the room was filled with light.
And there was a human figure right in front of us.
Its back was turned towards us, and it was floating in the air upside-down.
The long, shaggy hair was hanging below it.
“Ccccccluckk-cccluckkk!”
Geberga shuddered.
“It-it is a ghost! Does it have some kind of grudge!”
Even Luchila was shocked by this.
Upon hearing Luchila’s voice, a woman’s face rotated to look at us.
“…a woman’s face rotated to look at us.”
Just the face? Oh shit.
Thanks for the chapter~
It is expected, the typical new mansion cliche.
Thanks for the chapter

Why do every Isekai mansion need to have ghost in it
Every mansion worth the name should have a ghost or three. Why else would anybody want to live there?
a big and good mansion… no one try to live there until MC come…
