Chapter 198: A Dream About to Come True (1/2)

Calvin walked out of the devastated house and immediately activated the Emperor's Veil.

He was now invisible to the eyes of humans. Only the deformed man could possibly see him with his naked eye now.

But the crowd of monsters had eyes and when Calvin walked out of the house. Their ire was lit once more.

Shrill screams filled the air as the silenced rage rekindled.

Calvin's pupils constricted, yet there was this enthralled light in his eyes.

”REEE!”

The monsters screamed.

Their cries pierced throughout the entire village as the four women and the deformed man turned their heads to look in Calvin's direction.

”What was that all about?” said one of the women as she furrowed her eyebrows. These women all had one thing in common. They were beautiful. But they also had distinct differences. It was their dresses.

The one-piece dress that clad their bodies were in different shades of color.

Green, red, white, and black.

Green symbolized nature, while red symbolized blood.

White symbolized light, while black symbolized the darkness of the abyss.

”Ignore them. Those flies are probably attracting their attention. Focus on the task at hand.” The deformed man coldly spoke.

”Yes, Sum Jin.”

The four solemnly bowed their heads as they gnashed their teeth in reverence.

This man in front of them, this deformed man known as Sum Jing-Woo was a monster that they could never defeat.

But they didn't have to defeat him.

He was their allies, and furthermore. It was already too late for them to try anything.

They had been in this industry for far too long and despite knowing that they were going to die tonight. These women were resolute. The moment they took out those loans, they knew that they would forever live under the shadow of the Yellow River Gang.

They worked tirelessly, day and night, yet the interest compounded faster than they could even pay the principal.

In the end, they were buried underneath.

Tonight, they would also be buried.

But this time...

It would be six feet underneath.

They might die tonight—but at least—their families would be able to sleep well knowing that they didn't have that guillotine hanging over their heads anymore.

”Mother, father... I will be going first. Please have a long life.” These women uttered to themselves as they cast their decision in stone.

The four women gently placed the wooden plank down the platform.

”Take the four cardinal positions. Stretch your hands into a 'T' once I said so.”

The deformed man seriously said.

The ritual to fuse the Sinister Heart into the Queen of Plague had already been given unto him by the Goddess of Pestilence and Famine. But knowing the ritual didn't mean that he was an expert on it. This was the difference between the layman and the educated.

And the deformed man was a layman.

Mistakes weren't permitted.

The corresponding technique required a windless area. Thus, the deformed man summoned another veil. This time, it surrounded him, the Sinister Heart, and the four women inside. Using this method, the deformed man could eliminate disturbances. After all, no human being could possibly pass through this veil of locusts and wasps.

Of course, that was unless they wanted to die a gruesome death.

A hideous smile appeared on the deformed man's face.

His eyes gleamed with excitement as the dream that he had been nurturing for so long was finally about to come to fruition.

There must be no disturbances at all.

The deformed man glanced in the direction of the shrill screams and muttered.

”Wasp, go check that disturbance out. Silence those motherfuckers. But do not kill them. Remember that they will be the stepping stone for the Queen of Plague. So that she'll reach an even greater height! Do not fuck this up, do you understand?”

The deformed man's voice was cold as his shadow trembled under his message.

Then, the quivering of his shadows came to an abrupt halt as his shadow grew wings as it detached from the deformed man. With the deployment of Wasp, the deformed man's shadow returned to normal as a cruel smile flitted his face.

'Wasp is a High-Tier monster. Those ants can only hope to defeat Wasp. They can't even handle the Sabbath without using their ultimates, so what makes them think that they are able to eliminate Wasp?'

'Everything is in the bag...'

'Ashmelion... I hope you are prepared for the horror that I am about to unleash.'

'Shadis, you bald-headed motherfucker. Wash your neck. Didn't you enjoy removing each and every one of my nails? Didn't you enjoy feeding me cockroaches and making me drink my own piss?'

'Shadis... you bastard... you forced me to do all of these!'
