170 Second Day - Ghost! (1/2)

Battle of Ascension HotIce 30010K 2022-07-22

Randy's back hair stood, he felt chilling gush on his ears despite he wore a helmet, his heartbeat was beating furiously instantly. The creepy laugh was right on his ears, it was like the one who was laughing was right beside him.

He rolled forward immediately and looked at his back. There was nothing, there was no one.

Badum badum badum

Randy could hear his own heartbeat. He didn't scare out of the beast; he didn't scare by the hideous monster, but he scared with this kind of things.

'Ghost!'

It was what came up in Randy's mind. Gloomy atmosphere with sparse mist, a chilling wind which he could feel it despite he was wearing armor, and accompanied by a creepy laugh.

Gulp!

He swallowed a mouthful saliva and became nervous as he kept looking at his surrounding. But only tree and nothing else…

'Eh!? Only tree?'

A light bulb appeared in Randy's mind. He looked at one of the trees as all the tree here was the same. The tree was blooming with black flowers, like Jasmine Flower but the flower had fewer petals than Jasmine Flower.

Randy used his Detection skill on the tree.

--------------------------------

[Black Kamboja Tree]

Description: A tree that can produce dark energy which attracted the evil spirit. There is no special use from the wood of Black Kamboja Tree.

--------------------------------

He thought the monster in Bandung Territory was a tree like the Territory King he found in Bekasi Territory. But the information he got from the Detection skill disappointed him as the tree was just a normal tree, not a monster.

He was hoping the creepy laugh was from the tree, but it was not. Randy became even more nervous, the unknown thing was the scariest.

But there was a clue from the tree's information, an evil spirit. The tree produced dark energy which attracted the evil spirit.

”Shana! Shana! What the heck evil spirit is? Is the one who was laughing just now is the evil spirit?”

Plop!

Shana appeared in front of Randy's face, but she didn't tell Randy what evil spit. She was laughing, laughing while holding her small stomach, there was tear flowing because she was laughing so hard.

Randy's face flushed red being laughed by Shana, but fortunately, he was wearing a helmet, so Shana didn't notice it. If she noticed it, he was sure she would tease him more.

”Hihihihi…”

The creepy laugh rang again. Randy felt chilling gush on his back, also the laugh was right behind him. He pulled his sword, spinning his body, and slashed toward his back. Randy's action was within a blink of an eye after he heard the creepy laugh. It was his subconscious action after hearing the creepy laugh.

Splat!

Randy felt that his sword was like cutting meat. But after he got into sight what he cut was, he stunned. It was a woman with a mess long hair until her waist, but what he cut was right in her nose, so her head was cut split into two. From the nose upward got cut, and that part slid down along with the hair to the ground.
