Chapter 81: Head chopped, Repea (1/2)

TL: flarewk
Xue Qing actually appeared as such, despite having a huge amount of places to hide herself! Is she an idiot!
Even though she had already seen those people, she still walked out justifiably!
”My god........! What's she doing! Xue........!”
I'm almost worried to death, pressing my palm on the glass panels, with an extreme want on crying out to Xue Qing, but Bai Yu Hui immediately reacted to it, stretching out her hands from aside and covering up my mouth.
”You promised, to never ever head outside.”
”UuuU........!”
But! Xue Qing, she!
”I understand your feelings, but even if you're to head outside, what else can you help her out with? Please calm down first, and properly think about it.”
This time, Bai Yu Hui didn't aggressively bind me up, providing me with a convincing reason instead.
I who had become impulsive in the heat of the moment after listening to her words, too suppressed on my anxiety, and as to what she said, calmly thought over it.
Indeed, if I'm to dash out right now, I at most would just be a meat-shield.........plus it only having a single effect.........
And Xue Qing definitely wouldn't have wanted me to bear the injury for her, and it's even more plausible that she's unable to fully perform to her capabilities due to looking after me, and the possibility of that scenario occurring would be even greater.
”If you're being treated as a target by these murderous ghouls, it'll instead be a hindrance to her, isn't it?”
Bai Yu Hui's thoughts were almost just the same as mine.
”You're right........”
I had to admit, if I just recklessly dash out, I indeed wouldn't be of any help at all, but would instead cause trouble for Xue Qing.
I still am very clear, about how capable I am.........I'm that weak against murderous ghouls, akin to like a piece of paper, and would be shredded into pieces if I'm not careful.
Also, if I'm being captured and held hostage by the other party, it would basically be a GG scenario.
But, it can't be that I'm to just look at it over here.........!
Phew........don't be anxious, first try to understand the situation outside.
”Alright, I won't go out, but is there any way for us to hear the contents of their conversation?”
”That's no problem at all.........I'll cast a Windsweep Hearing technique on you then. As well as the Thousand Li Sight technique.........done.”
Bai Yu Hui used her hands to touch my ears momentarily, afterwards brushed my eyes briefly, with me after that feeling the sounds of the rain becoming louder, while being able to hear their speech as well, and at the same time, my vision was able to zoom in or out as to my wishes, able to observe their movements at a close distance thereafter.
Woah, it's so amazing!
”Oh? Not even waiting for us to come finding, but to actually first offer up yourself already? It's really kind of you~ Don't you agree? Eviscerate?”
I heard a frivolous voice; it definitely should be that Skin peeling Murderous ghoul's.
”Muhihihi~ its a little girl who's even more cute than what I've imagined~ Clown uncle likes little girl~ Girl why must you tiptoe~”
(TL: creepy song* reference)
The clown gave off a shrill laughter, his guffawing face in a unprecedented state of hideousness, it even looking more of like a demon.
Abnormalities.........
Why would their titles be presenting out such colors?
Black colors (evil intentions), red colors (killing intentions), purple colors (lustful greed) all being mixed together, like some sort of a sticky residue, emanating off a circulating bizarre glow.
Just by looking at it made me feel extremely disgusted, with a sensation of puking assaulting over, which made me uncontrollably dry vomit out a couple of times.
Plus, these sort of colors to them were actually 'normal'.........even people who had become crazy were more serene than these bunch of people.........
”Murderous ghouls, what sort of things are they exactly........they had basically completely discarded their human personalities.........”
I didn't want to ask that question, merely subconsciously having murmured it out, with me receiving Bai Yu Hui's response.
”Murderous ghouls are humans that are possessed by ghouls and have stepped into the path of killing, obtaining the powers of ghosts in exchange for selling off their bodies and souls as a cost. Murderous ghouls must work for their 'employers', which is the ghost that's possessing them, to kill people within a specified duration in order to satiate the ghost's stomach, if not, they will be eaten up.”
”I see.........so, the time that they are speaking of earlier was referring to that kind of time.........”
And thus, their target this time was Xue Qing, and they would be able to obtain huge amounts of time if they killed her; that's what it means.........
That also mean, that murderous ghouls were like executors for ghosts.
”Wait, if that's the case, then if the ghost isn't captured or killed, there would still be other murderous ghouls repeatedly appearing?”
If it's said as such, then the underlying culprit would be those ghosts possessing those humans, wasn't it!
”That's the case. However, humans that can allow ghosts to possess them in actuality number very few, and only people who have very intense killing intentions are only able to be the targets of being possessed. It's not just that any murderers will do, as those people who can still remain indifferent after murdering really are few among the few.........”
Her meaning was, only people who could still stay indifferent after murdering would then be qualified to be the targets of possession, huh?
Speaking of which, that indeed was quite less.........since after a murder, what mostly surfaced next for the majority of people were feelings of unease, anxiety, fear and after-fright, and very seldom there would be people who remained at ease murdering.
”Then, Xue Qing, she.........”
As expected, she's able to remain indifferent when murdering, huh........
”That's right, Jiang Xue Qing is also their kind.”
”Just as I've thought........”
Then the ghost that possessed Xue Qing was roughly that ghoul, Xiang Yue Xun then, which was why Xue Qing's saliva would have healing properties.
What I didn't expect, was that after Bai Yu Hui heard me saying 'just as I've thought', she astonishingly looked at me while asking.
”So you had long known that Jiang Xue Qing is being possessed by a ghost! Then, why must you still.........”
”Why must I still get close to her, right?”
I turned around, calmly looking at Bai Yu Hui, interrupting her words as I carried on asking her.
She blanked out for a moment. Perhaps she hadn't expected that I would be that composed, but she immediately regained over it and nodded her head, replying.
”.........Yes, since you already know about that matter, you should be very clear on how dangerous Jiang Xue Qing is.........”
”She's my friend.”
”Just because of that reason........!”
”It's enough for just that reason.”
It's even too adequate already.
I once again turned around to look outside the windows, and currently, the rain outside had become way smaller.
Xue Qing halted her footsteps and looked at the four murderous ghouls, with no expression on her face. The murderous ghouls too didn't take action brashly, all solemnly observing Xue Qing. Perhaps they were thinking, on what sort of courage this little girl depended on to come out so prominently.
