{"You're different from before. The first time you saw me, you were so scared you couldn't even speak!"}
{The Female Ghost scrutinized you, as if trying to figure out what had caused such a drastic change.}
{You were momentarily stunned, then realized she must be referring to the time you lost your soul.}
{"What I've been through doesn't concern you. Just answer me, do you want to find out who the masterminds are and kill them all?"}
{You turned to look at the Female Ghost, trying to speak with a calm expression.}
{"I want to kill them day and night, eat their flesh, and drink their blood!"}
{The Female Ghost's tone turned chilling. Her eyes grew crimson, and her face became even more twisted as overwhelming rage surged from within.}
{"I help you fulfill your wish. You protect my family!"}
{A terrifying aura swept over you, pressing down so hard you could barely breathe, making it hard to even speak clearly.}
{Seeing this, the Female Ghost withdrew her violent emotions and the raging dark Yin wind. That freezing cold sensation gradually faded.}
{"How will you help me fulfill my wish?" the Female Ghost asked.}
{"I'll be in charge of gathering intel. You'll be responsible for revenge. Will that work?" you countered, your voice full of confidence.}
{"That sounds great, but how exactly are you going to gather intel? You should know, even your father hasn't given me a satisfactory result yet." The Female Ghost said, still eyeing you with suspicion.}
{"How I do it isn't your concern. The result is more important than the process, isn't it?"}
{"Besides, in just a few hours, someone sent by the mastermind will come to test us. Then we'll see if I was lying."}
{You remained calm and composed, your words full of unwavering certainty.}
{The Female Ghost stared at you for a long while, then finally nodded.}
{"I'll trust you this once. But if no one shows up in a few hours, you'll find out what it means to lie to me."}
{With that, the Female Ghost prepared to return to the mirror.}
{"Wait. I still don't fully understand your current strength."}
{"Aside from possession, do you always need to stay in a mirror or some other vessel?"}
{You called out to stop the Female Ghost before she disappeared.}
{"I don't need possession or a vessel. I can still kill without a trace!"}
{The Female Ghost seemed slightly displeased by your questioning of her strength. Her brows furrowed, but she eventually added one more line.}
{"Staying in a vessel just helps me conserve energy."}
{You thought for a moment before speaking again. "So, if I want to take you somewhere, I'd have to carry a mirror with me? And during the day, can you still come out if you're inside a vessel?"}
{The Female Ghost considered it. "It doesn't have to be this bathroom mirror. Actually, the mirror your grandmother gave your sister is a better vessel. As long as I'm not exposed to direct sunlight, I can come out during the day."}
{"Then why didn't you enter that mirror to begin with? Why choose this one instead?" You asked again.}
{"That mirror has a seal set by your grandmother. If I force my way in, it might break," the Female Ghost explained.}
{"So, the seal just needs to be undone? Do you know how to lift it?" You asked after thinking it over.}
{"It's easy. Your sister just has to write my name on the mirror with her blood and sincerely invite me in. Then I can enter and exit freely."}
{The Female Ghost seemed to have figured this out long ago.}
{But it was obvious that getting your sister to sincerely invite her in was nearly impossible. Your parents would never agree, so she had to settle for this mirror instead.}
{Still, it was clear that the mirror your grandmother gave your sister was a much better vessel for the Female Ghost.}
{Most likely, your grandmother left that mirror as a bargaining chip—to let the Female Ghost trade it for your sister's life in a critical moment.}
{"Will my sister get hurt because of it? You'd better know that if you lie to me, you'll never find all the masterminds!"}
{You stared hard at the Female Ghost, your tone firm and unwavering.}
{Protecting your family from harm was one of the key prerequisites to clearing this Rule Horror.}
{"No. That mirror was left as a backup plan by your grandmother for your sister." The Female Ghost replied confidently.}
{"Alright. I'll find a way to get my sister to invite you into that mirror. In return, you must protect my family. I don't want any of them to get hurt!" You said firmly.}
{"Deal! As long as you help me find the masterminds, I swear I'll protect your entire family!"}
{Realizing how serious you were, the Female Ghost responded for the first time with equal gravity.}
{"Good. Let's work well together!"}
{You nodded slightly and left the bathroom.}
{The Female Ghost stared blankly at your departing figure.}
{This little guy actually dared to negotiate with me alone and he even managed to dominate the conversation?!}
{The Female Ghost shook her head and stopped thinking further. She returned to the mirror and vanished.}
{Back in your room, you closed the door, exhaled deeply, and collapsed onto the floor like a deflated balloon.}
{Thinking back on everything that had just happened, it all still felt unreal.}
{You actually negotiated with the Female Ghost. And based on the result, you somehow even gained a slight upper hand!}
{That's the Malevolent Ghost who single-handedly slaughtered the entire Yellow Village!}
