The five ghosts simultaneously exerted their power, and the carousel that had been spinning quickly visibly slowed down.
Dashiell didn’t quite understand the spells of the Mystical Sect, but that didn’t stop him from having his eyes opened wide.
So ghosts can be used like this?
He felt like he had heard about these five ghosts somewhere before.
Not only had he heard of them, but he felt that they weren’t supposed to be used in this way...
Others couldn’t see this bizarre scene; they only noticed that after Scarlett Jennings cast her spell, the carousel started to slow down.
For a moment, everyone’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
Everyone knew Lucas Jennings, the eldest daughter of the Jennings Family, was capable, but no one expected her to have such talent that she could stop a malfunctioning machine.
No wonder her family dotes on her.
If it were them, they would spoil her too!
Anyone who has a skilled master in their family would surely treat them with utmost care.
Those families temporarily shelved their grievances, watching eagerly as the carousel’s speed returned to its original pace and slowly showed signs of stopping.
Families and the people on the carousel displayed joy simultaneously.
Some people couldn’t wait for the carousel to come to a complete stop before hurrying to dismount.
The boys were fine, dressed in suits that made movement relatively easy, but the girls wearing cocktail dresses and high heels were much more troubled.
Despite their anxiety, they had to wait for the carousel to stop entirely before leaving.
Seeing that it was almost time, several people lifted their skirts and stood up, preparing to get down from the pumpkin carriage or wooden horse.
Donovan Jennings also immediately arranged for staff to assist people in getting down.
But at this moment, an unforeseen event suddenly occurred.
Out of nowhere, a black mist flew swiftly over like the wind, sweeping past the edge of the carousel.
Where it passed, the ghost energy of the five ghosts instantly dispersed.
Scarlett Jennings’s expression hardened. She couldn’t care about her broken seal and hurriedly shouted at those getting off the carousel,
"Everyone, don’t move! Hold steady!"
The people were puzzled, but they all reacted quickly, instinctively grabbing hold of something beside them as Scarlett instructed.
Several staff members also rushed to stabilize the madams and ladies.
Just as everyone had secured themselves, the carousel that was nearly stopping suddenly started spinning rapidly again.
The crowd screamed once more.
"Ah!"
Someone was caught off balance by the sudden inertia and was about to fall onto the moving carousel.
At the critical moment, Donovan Jennings swiftly climbed over the railing and jumped inside.
Ignoring the risk of being hit by the approaching carousel, he managed to pull back the girl who was about to fall underneath.
Then, he pushed her into the nearby pumpkin carriage.
As the planner of the birthday party, he knew that if any heiress got hurt here today, the Jennings Family would not only face backlash from other families, but Scarlett’s eighteenth birthday would be utterly ruined.
He couldn’t allow this to happen.
Moreover, he wouldn’t let it slide until he found out who was orchestrating this chaos...
The man, usually calm and smiling, now had an unprecedented coldness in his eyes.
The staff who had come to assist also silently clenched their teeth, protecting the madams and ladies around them. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Luca Jennings’s face turned cold, and as Donovan jumped in, he turned and questioned the responsible staff, "Power hasn’t been cut yet?!"
The staff member’s voice cracking with a hint of tears, "It’s already cut..."
When the speed had slowed to a stable level, he had received orders from Donovan to cut the power.
But...
Even though the power was cut, why was the carousel still moving?
Isn’t this really a ghostly phenomenon?
At this moment, Scarlett Jennings was too busy to care about the reactions around her. The moment the black mist appeared, she realized it was definitely Ava Zimmerman and the Evil Master behind her causing trouble.
There were no traces of shadow energy affecting the carousel.
