Chapter 26 The Aftermath
Chapter 26 The Aftermath
Dorian looked at his injured men and chuckled.
"Fun?"
The trio looked at their wounds before looking at Dorian and grimacing helplessly.
Do they look like they had fun?
Sigh... They had so many questions to ask.
Nonetheless, they now knew one thing for sure.
Their Tian family specialized in the Supernatural!
Meanwhile, everyone touched themselves with trembling hands when they realized that it was finally over.
My God!
Tonight, they almost had their souls devoured, which was the scariest thing they had ever encountered in their lives!
As if affected by the essence of victory, the group of people finally understood that no more demons would appear again tonight.
Their lips quivered and quickly widened as they felt good to be alive.
"We... We're Free! We're Free! We're Free!
Hahahahhahahah!"
"~Ooo... Mother... I miss my Mother."
"F***! Never again will I come to this Wuphil Mountain."
"Bro, I'm with you on this one. I would rather shoot myself than climb up here and face what we saw today. Can't you see that my clothes are still soaked from before? Heh. If someone told me that the grown Me would wet myself like this, I would've definitely beaten them silly. Never again will I come here!"
"Bro, for me, I might have trust issues forever. Seeing those demons walking around in human form made me realize that anyone could be a demon."
"Ahhh!... This is true! So, so, so what do we do?"
....
Amidst the joy of escaping their near-death experience, many were now scared at the fact that they were living with such creatures around them.
I'll go! How do they know who is real and who isn't?
Many couldn't help shaking in disgust and fear when they thought of how those good-looking people from before turned into indescribable rotting creatures that made them puke.
Mommy.
This world is too scary.
Many had already decided never to step foot on the mountain, thinking it was the sleeping ground for these demons.
Today, everyone looked as if they had aged 10 years more than their actual ages.
~Plop.
Minato and Yangbo slumped to the ground and rubbed their fingers across the already dead grass.
They survived.
The duo stared at it for a while in fear before that fear turned to unwillingness instead.
Looking at Hayden, Terzo and Lulu, they twisted their mouths and stared coldly at them without flinching.
After realizing that things like demons existed, and going through this sort of experience, trust me, they weren't that afraid of Hayden's group anymore.
Yes. There was still fear in them, but it wasn't as bad as earlier, where they always kept their heads down and never made eye contact.
No. This time, they looked at the Trio who had dragged them into this situation.
They built up the courage and stared at Hayden's gang with both hatred and a little fear.
"Hayden! We... We will no longer be a part of your nonsense!"
"Y-yeah! because of you 3 we almost lost our lives here! Greed! It's your greediness that caused this all!"
"SHUT UP!!!"
"....."
.
Minato and Yangbo swallowed their words when Hayden lashed out!
Hayden looked at them and felt like punching them silly.
What? They think they were the only ones who faced life and death?
Talking to him and playing the blame game in a time like this was what anyone would hate.
Honestly, that's jinxing 101 for how people died in horror movies!
Earlier on, he was just a few inches away from Beeldomad's claws before getting saved
So do they know how chaotic his mind was now?
He was truly scared to the bone!
That's why for the next month or so, he wanted to assess his life, and for that, he needed peace.
As for disbanding his gang, he would never do so.
Actually, now was the time that they should stick together.
He wasn't even sure he could be alone in the dark anymore.
The same went for the others too.
Their hearts drummed loudly, and every little whistle from the wind caused them to jump like cats.
Now they kept wondering.
If Demons existed, then did that mean that ghosts were real too?
Everyone now had little thoughts of their own, voicing their main issues here and there.
But the moment they saw their 4 heroes headed towards them, the entire field turned silent.
For these people, they had a sort of fawning look in their eyes when gazing at them, as if they were looking at Peerless Masters in the famous Xianxia Novels.
They looked at these people deeply, as if wanting to burn their images into their minds, while perking up their ears to listen in.
.
Standing behind Dorian, the injured, Haru, Butler Sheng and Bewoh, maintained a calm expression on their face.
After defeating the demons, the Master searched for several smooth-looking rocks and calmly carved something on them with his blade.
What astonished them the most was how the rocks seemed to turn soft in the master's hands, as he carved symbols on them as if carving a bar of soap.
And when he was done, he tapped the stones, and the carvings glowed bright yellow before fading
Now, the stone just looked ordinary, with a few cravings on it.
The trio secretly took note of this in their hearts and silently watched Dorian do his thing.
Dorian knew they had a lot of questions, but all would be answered in due time.
With that, Dorian smiled and continued carving.
And he was done, the gang moved towards the crowd with their Master ahead of them.
It was time to round things up and head back home.
It was just that looking ahead, they couldn't help frowning a bit.
What do they do with the Choppers?
