After I traveled through the book, I became an NPC in a horror novel

Yang Guang blurted out a greeting and wanted to slap himself after he said it. Why didn't he run away quickly but just stood there saying hello? Are you okay?

He raised his stiff legs and tried to leave, but before he could take a step, the Spider-Man on the ceiling quickly crawled over from the side.

"Carol, why are you here?"

A hoarse and bloody voice came from Yang Guang's ear. Yang Guang turned his head stiffly and found that this Spider-Man looked exactly like a maid named Lily, except that his originally handsome face had become a mouth larger than an ordinary person's with sharp teeth.

Lily: "Did Master Cyril ask you to come?"

Lily thought that Cyril had asked Yang Guang to check whether the man who had broken into the young master's room had been dealt with. She bent her big mouth and comforted Yang Guang, "Don't worry, Carol. I have dealt with him. Go back and report to Master Cyril!"

Yang Guang looked at the bright red meat stuck in Lily's teeth and looked at Lily with nausea.

Yang Guang: "Lily, be more ladylike in the future and don't let yourself look too sloppy in front of the guests."

After saying that, he pointed at Lily's mouth. After hearing that, Lily opened her eyes wide and pulled her hand that was originally stuck to the wall to cover her mouth, with a hint of weird coquettishness.

Lily: "Thank you Carol for reminding me. I really didn't pay attention."

Yang Guang: "Then Lily, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go find the young master."

Yang Guang said goodbye to Lily in a tense voice, turned and left. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Lily waving at him with her unusually slender and sharp hand, as if saying goodbye to him.

Somehow, Yang Guang suddenly felt that Lily was not that scary. After all, she was just a cute little girl, and it was no big deal for her to eat a person.

With a stiff face, Yang Guang walked to Cyril's door unconsciously. He looked at the black paint on Cyril's door, which seemed to be about summoning demon runes, and knocked without any emotion.

The door opened a crack, and a hand reached out from the gap, grasped Yang Guang's waist, brought him in and closed the door.

Yang Guang felt his waist tighten, his feet left the ground, his vision changed, and then he sat on a soft place. A sigh came from his ear.

Cyril sat in the middle of the big sofa where Yang Guang had slept. Yang Guang sat sideways on Cyril's legs, with a well-defined hand on his waist and a head on his shoulder, which was constantly rubbing Yang Guang's neck.

Yang Guang glanced at the room and found that the walls were covered with incomprehensible runes. The round table and small sofa where Cyril liked to enjoy the scenery and work became tattered and covered with cobwebs. The only thing that was pleasing to the eye was the cold bed and the large sofa under Cyril.

"Your Mightiness…"

Yang Guang called Cyril, then gently held Cyril's head with his hands and moved it in front of him.

Cyril's originally gem-like blue eyes were now reduced to two black holes, cracks appeared on his face like broken porcelain, and his hair turned into a lifeless gray.

Seeing this scene, Yang Guang's heart seemed to be pulled up, and his breathing became a little faster. He found that he could no longer feel Cyril's breathing. Yang Guang opened his mouth to ask something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Cyril: “It’s ugly.”

Cyril, who lost his eyes, could still recognize people and things, but he could no longer see the pain in Yang Guang's eyes. He pursed his lips and buried his face in Yang Guang's neck again.

"It's not ugly." Yang Guang pressed his cheek against Cyril's head and hooked his hands around his neck. The two hugged each other for a while without saying another word.

"Dear Carol, do you want to know my story?"

I don't know how long it was before Cyril asked.

Yang Guang put his palm against Cyril's face: "My pleasure."

Cyril raised his head, stared at Yang Guang with his eye sockets that no longer had eyeballs, and slowly said: "My father, Earl of Thorns, was ambitious when I was a child, but he made a wrong decision. He sacrificed his wife, children, and the entire castle to the devil."

Hearing this, Yang Guang was stunned. He finally understood why there were so many runes in Cyril's room and why Lily turned into a monster.

Cyril: "My mother couldn't bear this fact and committed suicide. I was brought up by the housekeeper when I was young. Everyone in the castle was trapped here and couldn't escape. My greedy father was retaliated by the devil who devoured his soul and came to the human world. This devil didn't have the ability to challenge the entire country, so he used his malice to turn the forest near the castle into an extremely dangerous place to help him catch prey. Those who didn't fancy him were devoured by the forest and became nutrients for the forest; those who did fancy him were lured into the castle and devoured."

Cyril stroked Yang Guang's waist with his hand, feeling the warmth radiating from him in his arms: "Not long ago, I found the books about demons left by my father in the study, which allowed me to seal the demon underground and prevent him from going up to devour others. Although my father sacrificed us, he asked the demon not to kill the people in the castle for the sake of his noble reputation. So the people in the castle looked like ordinary people on the ground, and we returned to our original appearance underground."

At this point, Cyril sneered: "Speaking of this, I should probably thank my father for preventing the demon from completely killing me."

Not surprisingly, Yang Guang began to feel sorry for Cyril. He didn't know how Cyril grew up under the control of the devil after losing his parents as a child, and how he found a way to contain the devil after enduring for decades.

Cyril: "My eyes melted bit by bit, like ice in summer, cracks crawled up my face, and when my heart stopped beating, my eyes melted completely."

Yang Guang didn't know what to say to comfort Cyril. He actually felt that Cyril didn't need his comfort.

"How can I help you, Cyril?"

When Cyril heard Yang Guang calling his name, he was slightly stunned, then he laughed happily and hugged the person in his arms tighter.

Cyril: "We have several guests in our castle, right? They came here on their own initiative with such confidence, they must have found a way. We can ask them to help us."

Yang Guang understood what Cyril meant instantly. Players would definitely not enter the dungeon unprepared, and they could trigger more information. If they wanted to pass the level, they had to kill the final boss.

Just as Yang Guang thought, the players have found a lot of useful information in the dangerous castle.

Short-haired girl: "So this earl sacrificed everyone in the castle, killed his wife, and then gave himself to the devil to get a body and a castle for free?"

Xiao Ke: "You are really good at delivering food."

The two people who found the clues in the castle's study communicated. Apparently, they had also experienced a period of chasing and hiding, and their bodies were covered in blood and dirt.

Xiao Ke: "Sister, should we go and inform others now?"

The short-haired girl: "Okay, I'll let you know when I get back. I don't want to be chased by that Spider-Man and the cook with the boning knife again."
