If she was going to act, she should do it all the way.
Sienna destroyed the mirror before the woman. At the same time, the remaining magic phosphor on the mirror exploded again. Inside the mirror, they could see many screaming shadows disappear.
Sienna sprawled onto the table as if out of energy. Her forehead had beads of sweat and she panted for breath.
“Such a strong demon… Thankfully, it’s daytime. Miss, the demon on here has been exorcised.”
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Sienna had practiced her act thousands of times. She could get an Oscar by now.
The woman nodded and finally smiled.
“Am I free?”
“Yes, you are free now. The demon won’t disturb you anymore.”
The woman walked away with a satisfied smile. Sienna smiled too.
Many times, treating people with dissociative disorders didn’t mean healing her mind. Instead, one only had to follow her train of thought and end the thing she was imagining. Then she would go back to normal.
Sienna wasn’t a therapist, but she’d many of these cases before and she was used to it.
She looked up but saw that the woman had suddenly climbed onto the stone fence in the front. Shocked, Sienna hurried over.
“Miss, what are you doing? Get down here.”
The park was built on the side of a cliff and the cliff, around 30 feet tall, was right behind the fence. There were jagged rocks and angry waves below. If you jumped down, you really could die.
The woman stood on the fence and turned to look at Sienna with a gentle smile.
“I’m free…”
Sienna’s expression changed drastically. “Miss, you’re already free. Why do you still want to…”
“I will return to God’s embrace, no longer controlled by the demon. I no longer have fear, no longer have terror. I no longer need to hide in the shadowy corners…”
“Miss, suicide is a sin. You won’t go to heaven.”
“No, he said that if I break free from the demon, I’ll be able to return to God’s embrace. He won’t lie to me…”
“Who’s he? Who said that?”
“He won’t lie to me. He won’t lie to me…”
“Miss, I don’t know who you’re talking about, but suicide is an unforgiveable sin. You’ll definitely go to Hell. Do you want to tell me who you’re talking about? I’ll go ask him and then you can decide if you want to jump down.”
The woman hesitated. Seeing this, Sienna immediately added, “Spiritualists all know each other. Maybe I know who you’re talking about.”
Sienna felt that the woman had been tricked by a spiritualist without good intentions or a liar.
“He’s not a spiritualist, but he only appears at night.”
“Appears at night?” Sienna frowned. “Who is he?”
“My ex.”
“He’s working now?”
“No, he’s dead. He died not too long ago.”
Sienna’s eye twitched. She didn’t know if the woman’s delusions were acting up or if she really was involved with an evil spirit.
“Can you tell me more details? Come down first.”
The woman hesitated, but she still jumped down from the fence. Sienna quickly went over and steadied her.
Then the woman suddenly stood up and exclaimed, “Oh my god, what’s wrong with me? How could I be so impulsive?”
She started hitting her head and feeling aftershock.
“Let’s go sit over there.”
The woman followed Sienna and sat down. Sienna kept observing her. She had to be sure if this woman had a mental disorder or was really affected by an evil spirit.
If she had a mental disorder, Sienna would call the cops. If she was affected by an evil spirit, then Sienna could watch without doing anything.
“My ex is called Nance. After we moved, he started getting weird. In the end, I couldn’t take it anymore and broke up with him. The next day, he committed suicide.”
Sienna frowned and the woman furrowed her brows.
“When I was cleaning up his belongings, I found that mirror. That night, Nance appeared before me. He told me that a demon was hidden in the mirror. I had to find a way to destroy it. Otherwise, the demon would eat my soul.”
“Nance told you to commit suicide?” Sienna glanced back at the shattered mirror on her table.
“He said that the demon can’t be killed and the mirror will recover. I can only escape from the demon completely by killing myself before the mirror recovers.”
The more Sienna heard, the weirder it became. “Where did the mirror come from?”
“The former owner of our new home left it behind.”
“Where’s the former owner?”
“I heard he had an accident.”
“Miss, you said that the mirror will recover?”
“Yes, I’ve tried many ways. I even shattered it with my own hands, but it would always reappear before me.”
Sienna was sure that it wasn’t the mirror. At least, she didn’t feel anything strange about the mirror.
The mirror looked quite old, but it seemed to be just an ordinary mirror with a wooden frame. However, Sienna couldn’t make any conclusions. She had to see the so-called ex right now.
If this ex really did exist…
Sienna wasn’t a rookie. She actually had a very rich experience, but she’d never heard of such a complicated problem.
“Oh, we’ve already talked for so long, but I don’t know your name.”
“Chris Ackerman.”
“I’m Sienna Yiberg.”
Sienna had been observing Chris all this time. She was mostly sure that Chris was affected by an evil spirit. However, Chris was very calm right now. She wasn’t excited after getting off of the fence.
Evil spirits had different abilities. Some could affect the victim’s mind. The victim would often do crazy things, such as committing suicide under the spirit’s control.
Sienna wasn’t sure if Chris was lied to and thus made the wrong judgment, or if she was already controlled by the evil spirit. However, after this conversation, Sienna was sure that Chris was quite clear-headed—at least, she was now.
The evil spirit’s influence may vary at times, making her suddenly have the impulse and then disappear before growing stronger at night. After days and days of this, the victim could gradually break down and finally commit suicide in misery.
This was what evil spirits often did, unless they were the super frightening spirits. Those could possess someone and control them directly. Ordinary evil spirits had to use accumulated mental torture to hurt someone.
