I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Chapter 75): Torn In Half (1)

Chapter 75): Torn In Half (1)

Oh my god!

Lu Yibei woke up abruptly, and a sense of despair washed over him.

She originally wanted to know what had happened to Pharoah but wound up swallowing Brights core instead. Now, a sense of despair lingered in her soul.

While thinking, she looked at the trolley case in the living room again and frowned.

Should I continue eating?

What if I accidentally swallow Brazils core this time?

After swallowing half of Brights core, she no longer felt hungry, but the instinctive desire within her tempted her to continue devouring.

Mrs Witch, what are you thinking about? The wig asked, worried after seeing Yibei silent for so long.

I was wondering if there were any side effects to eating too much.

Hah! the eyeball sneered. Youd better eat it all now; otherwise, it may end up in somebody elses stomach!

Lu Yibei glared at it, and the eyeball hurriedly hid behind the wig.

Eyeball has a point. A powerful core like this may attract other urban legends, and I dont even know how to preserve it.

Id better eat them all!

Yibei stepped forward and grabbed the two remaining cores.

Im no longer a child! I dont have to choose!

Cutting both the cores into two, she stuffed each half into her mouth and swallowed.

The next moment, the girl keeled over in her kitchen, and once again, she fell into unconsciousness.

Lu Yibei woke up to the sound of things being flung around the room, and she found herself in Pharoahs body. In front of Pharoah were a man and a woman arguing with each other in a dim room.

They were his parents, and they were arguing about Zhao Ke, who turned out to be Pharoahs long-lost brother.

All you care about is work! You have never, a day in your life, cared about your children! the woman yelled.

Oh, yeah? You have no idea what they call our son at school! the man yelled.

A lunatic, a pervert, a freak! the man gestured. Is that what you want your son to be called? I wish I had never met you!

Say it to my face, then! the woman yelled. Tell me you want a divorce!

Just leave me alone! The man pushed the woman away.

How could my brother be a pervert? Pharoah thought.

In my memory, he isnt somebody like that, Pharoah thought. Hes gentle and loving to me.

Something must have happened.

Ever since Zhao Ke entered high school, something changed. He was no longer the brother who was gentle and caring.

The last conversation between them was more than a month ago.

Zhao Ke returned home from school and chatted with Pharoah happily, despite his sudden switch in personality.

I figured out something, Zhao Ke told him. Everything will go back to normal, and school wont seem so scary anymore.

Zhao Ke informed Pharoah that he might not come back for a long time and to take care of their parents for him.

Pharoah vividly remembers that Zhao Ke left with no bag and that the setting sun was strangely blood-red.

Amidst the argument between his parents, he figured out that whatever his brother figured out was linked to his sudden disappearance.

I should have told them about him Pharoah lamented.

Pharoah looked up at his parents and found that they were still arguing. He didnt quite understand the significance of their quarrel. Isnt the most important thing now to find his missing brother?

While Pharoah was thinking, his parents suddenly looked at him, causing his body to shiver.

Their eyes were strange, and their words dripped with poison.

They were no longer somebody he could call his parents.

Frightened, he dashed out of the house, with his parents yelling drowning out behind him. He ran and ran down the dark and empty streets at night.

After running through half the neighbourhood, he stopped in front of another villa and panted as he yelled towards a window.

Zhuo Huang! Are you home?

Zhuo Huang!

Pharoah yelled outside the villa to his brothers best friend.

He didnt know how to deal with such a sudden situation. He wanted to discuss it with someone.

After shouting for a while, Zhuo Huang didnt come out, but his parents did instead. Instead of welcoming him, their eyes dripped with contempt and hatred.

Your brothers a freak, your familys a freak, and you are a freak! Dont ever come near our house ever again!

Zhao Mings heart was torn in half, and for once in his life, he truly felt alone.
