Chapter 79 - Human Blood and Sacrifices (1/2)

”All the more reason for me to eradicate you for good!” Tom growled as he pounced on it even more ferociously.

The shrill cry was heard from its figure as its appearance shifted to its original form. The cry sounded agonizing and those who could hear it would have goosebumps all over their body.

Just imagine a piece of flesh was ripped apart from one's body. Only, instead of flesh, it was a small part of its black shadow was ripped by Tom's claws and dissipated in the dark night.

No wonder it would cry like that.

After its cry, the noise downstairs was even more obvious as those girls living in the first floor were all screaming in fright. I bet they all had run out of the house now.

”I underestimate it.” I heard Sanji mumbled. ”It is so strong. Its host must come from a strong family, too. Too bad they're too involved in dark magic. It craves human blood and sacrifices. I can't eliminate it right away, but I can drive it away. Unless we find the host, we really can't do anything.” Sanji added in firm tone.

Human blood and sacrifices? I frowned as I heard that.

Something clicked inside my mind and my eyes widened in shock.

It can't be, right? I must be wrong.

I shook my head as I tried to deny the horrible thought that came into my mind so suddenly.

Senior Rizal wouldn't be the sacrifice. He couldn't be.

I failed to watch how Sanji and Tom worked together to drive it away. The only thing I knew was the angry roar filled with agony and promise of revenge was directed at me.

Surprisingly, after it left, the dark night seemed to be a bit brighter.

Then, I heard someone was calling out for me. It was Mrs. Rosa's voice, trembling with fear but still calling me out.

”J-Jane? Come down, dear. It's not safe up there.”

I exchanged glances with Tom and Sanji. Seeing the both of them nodded their head while giving me a look; don't tell anyone about what had happened just now, I took a deep breath and put on terrified expression before I headed downstairs.

”Mrs. Rosa? What was it? It's so scary!”
