Chapter 48: Eaten alive, Peeled living (1/2)
TL: flarewk
I couldn't move away my vision, not even being able to blink as well!
It's not that I didn't want to move, but it was that I'm unable to move anymore already!
My body was extremely stiff, like as if the muscles on my body everywhere had already been cramped up.
It should be that she had done something towards me, which made my body lost its ability to move, I guess.
As expected, she, Xiang Yue Xun didn't have any intentions of walking towards my side at all, just like as if she had understood since long ago that I definitely wouldn't be able to flee, as she once again bent down to continue picking up the frontal arm of that corpse, like biting on a chicken drumstick as she tore off a piece of meat, chewing as she said.
”Fixatedly staring at the scenery of a lady having her meal isn't very polite at allll~ hehee, such a fiery gaze, was it looking at me, or was it looking at the food instead? Or was it, both sides included?”
”...........!”
Move!! Move!! Hurry up and move!! My leg!
This was the final chance, if I don't flee right now, I probably couldn't escape already!
That's the 'real deal', what's being eaten was human flesh, what's being drank was human blood, what's being gnawed was human bones, it's the real true monster!!
When I was little, those storybooks would always have human-eating wolves, monsters, demons and so on of such villainous characters appearing, but those scenes of them eating people were always brushed over, consistently never once being depicted on how exactly did they eat humans............
Right now, after I personally witnessed the entire process of eating humans, I then realized that these sort of actions were such levels of atrocity.
From when the contents of that 'title' was being originally displayed right in front of me, I then understood that from the first time I saw these people, those instinctively developed feelings of terror weren't misconceptions at all.
This person was indeed a monster that's frighteningly chilling.
It's an existence that normal people would never, never be able to accept and understand.
When people were faced with this sort of existence, they could only flee...........facing off against it was an absolutely foolish act; there's only the option to flee!
”Wanting to flee? It's no useee~ never heard of that phrase? 'Those who had been stared at by ghosts would be rendered immobile', and you as of right now are being looked at by me desu, even if you wanted to escape, you can't escape at allll~”
No, it's not that I'm completely unable to move at all...........my nostrils could still enlarge and shrink.
Don't be dazed by her words already, calm down first, focus your concentration, then search for a breakpoint.
No matter how terrible the situation, always being able to be composed immediately was one of my biggest virtues. If even this set of calmness wasn't being able to be maintained, I probably would really die an unclear death.
My four limbs indeed couldn't move at all already. Well then, I'll continue onto even more detailed body parts............
Just like that, I tried parts and parts of my body, hoping to be able to find a place where I could move, but still having no progress even after a long time later.
Looking at those residual meat pieces becoming even lesser and lesser, my heart also gradually sank into the abyss.
When she had finished eating that corpse...........it'll be my turn then?
Damn it!
The way of death that finally awaited me was actually to be reduced to a monster's rations, being eaten alive and peeled living*, huh!
What kind of a hellish joke was this!!
Like that, after the bizarre situation of rubbernecking a ghoul eating corpse had maintained for a while, she finally finished eating that piece of corpse, although it wasn't being consumed rather tidily.
Within the pool of blood floated some minced bits and residue meats, with extremely lengthy intestines and the bag of the stomach soaked within as well, but Xiang Yue Xun seemingly already lost interest towards the remaining body parts, as she stood up and distanced away from those residual portions, and even extremely distastefully spat a bloodied spittle towards that pool of blood.
”Pei! So disgustingly gross............humph, as expected, those who would be possessed are those people that were already corrupted from the very core.”
(TL: pei = spitting sfx)
Just like as if that this 'supper' wasn't pleasing towards her.
She didn't consume the intestines and stomach as she thought that they contained excrement and digestive juices, hence being rather dirty, huh?
But eating a person alive just like that was originally already very filthy, right............I really don't get what's her standard difference between clean and dirtiness.............
Xiang Yue Xun shook her hands about, wanting to shake off the blood traces that were stained onto her hands, but wasn't able to shake it all off. Then she walked to right beside the vending machine and tossed in a coin to purchase 2 bottles of water, opening one of them and started to wash her hands and mouth, along with the ends of her hair too.
Her movements were extremely proficiently natural, just exactly like as if after a construction worker had finished doing his work at the construction site, and starting to wash his hands that were completely stained with cement.
Although it wasn't washed to be rather clean, but in the end managed to rinse off all the traces of blood on her skin already.
What followed closely next............she took off her raincoat!
Just like that, right in front of me, she took off the oversized raincoat that were fully stained with fresh blood!
If it's just taking off the raincoat I wouldn't be till that surprised, what made me feel so shocked was because............she wasn't wearing anything inside at all, being completely in the nude!
Her breasts were slightly raised; saying it to be flat chested would also make it to be too perky, saying it to be normal would also make it to be a little small. It's considered to be small bosom that were in-between the two.
She had a silky straight long hair that grew over her waist, it even being able to cover her butt, feeling almost being able to be used as a towel already. Her body figure was just as petite as Xue Qing, having a pair of huge round scarlet red eyes, sweetly cute face contour, and a very distinctive tiny tiger tooth*, which made her seemingly slightly cheeky when she unveiled out a smile.............
No! Why was it being in the complete nude?!
”Hehee~ are you secretly looking at me? You're soo baddd~ I don't have any exhibitionism, ho~, it's just that even if I wore a raincoat, there would still be blood seeping inside from the gaps and dirtying my clothes, so I just simply didn't put on clothes merely.”
Why must you explain it to me............
”Ahh, I forgot to also take off the shoes as well............heeii, xiuu~ this boots are too stupidly heavy already, so especially uncomfortable when wearing it desu.”
(TL: heii, xiuu~ (嘿，咻~) = cute sfx of taking off shoes in a 'cutely exerted' manner.)
After taking off her rainboots, Xiang Yue Xun had completely returned back to a baby-like state, with her entirety being totally uncovered.
She leisurely and unslowly walked towards my side, and as our vision crossed each other midair, her red pupils gave off an even more brighter reddish glow.
Just at this point, I suddenly felt that my middle finger root jointal area was able to move already! After finding this regional place that was being able to move, my brows suddenly gave rise to a bout of icy cooling sensation, and what closely followed next was, that certain sort of strength that limited my movements suddenly vanished, letting me regain back my freedom!
Without even thinking at all, I just turned my head around and ran off !
Ruun!
Hurry up and flee from this human-devouring monster's side!
From my back resounded Xiang Yue Xun's astonished sound.
”Eiiii?! You actually undone my vision enchantment............wait! Don't run away! I still want to talk with you!”
In an instant, my running pace was being stopped!
But this time, it's not because my body was stiff and being paralyzed, but it's me being caught already!
She actually ran behind my back in a flash, hugging onto my waist!
