Chapter 296 Facing Reality



Run!

Chan-ki\'s legs obeyed his command, pushing forth through the vicious plants.

~Wahhh~

The giant blanket of spiky petals came at him from all directions.

Dodge to the left, jump high up, roll to the right, duck!

Chan-ki felt pressure with the increasing speed at which these petals came at him.

\'The more I advance, the faster their attacks.\'

They were hell-bent on not wanting him to reach the Mother.

~Whoopash!

He flicked his whip, slicing off several blankets of red.

Chan-ki somersaulted forward, dodging her another attack before landing and continuing his whipping carnage.

~Whoopash! Whoopash! Whoopash!

The audience felt their blood boil, watching Chan-ki effortlessly move through the dangerous jungle.

Don\'t look at how he was making everything look easy. The speed at which these petals moved was one they dared not try.

What does it mean to only see after images?

If it were them, they would\'ve long gotten wrapped around the many spiky giant petals. And by then, who knows what these petals would do to them. Suck them dry? Squeeze them so right like an anaconda and crack their bones?

No one knew the true attack of these plants. And quite frankly, they didn\'t want to know!

.

"What a strong guy!"

One of the high-ranked police officers in the town couldn\'t help commenting.

Who knew that this visitor who they spoke to earlier was this strong?

His translucent magical whip also made him understand that these people were probably from a special government department handling issues of this nature.

Many thought so too.

"Old Ray... Would you have ever guessed that such things existed?"

Raymore shook his head bitterly. "The world is truly a dangerous place. But leaving the town after this would be stupid."

"Why?" Another asked with an unwilling voice.

No! They disagree.

You have to know that after such an ordeal, almost everyone had inwardly decided to leave the town for good if they survived.

So why was the mayor saying such words?

Was it because he wanted to selfishly keep them here and continue being mayor at the detriment of their lives?

Raymore could see their thoughts but didn\'t feel offended.

"Haven\'t you all thought about it? These 2 folks are probably part of a special department working for the government."

True or false?

No one spoke, but their widened eyes showed their surprise.

Raymore pointed at Dorian. "Take a look at their clothes. You might not be able to see it, but I know they\'re expensive. Believe it or not, the boy\'s watch alone costs hundreds of thousands."

What???!!!

A collective gasp echoed out, with many dubiously looking at the watch as though it were gold.

If they had such an expensive piece of clothing, they would be too scared to wear it out. Hey... What if they got robbed on the streets?

Losing such a watch was enough to make them fall into cardiac arrest.

Looking at the unique watch, many subconsciously felt his mayor\'s words were true.

"Everyone... Think about it. These people are versed in dealing with such situations and are also well paid. This means the government knows about these creatures. In other words, wherever one goes, such beings will always be there hiding amongst us or in the shadows!"

How can this be?

Many felt the color drain from their faces.

If... If these beings were everywhere, then didn\'t this mean the only way to escape their grasp was to leave the country?

No.

Many shook their heads.

If their country was riddled with these creatures, maybe the other countries also faced the same problems.

In that case, there was no escaping these things. Face tightened, Raymore was also in a state of turbulence.

You think he wouldn\'t have wanted to pick his family up and flee to any safe grounds?

Such things are good in theory. However, reality was more likely to disappoint him.

"No!!!" Something exclaimed, not wanting to come to terms with reality.

"Why? How can this be? If it was as you said, why didn\'t the government tell us?"

Fear, panic, and worry indeed made some people ask silly questions.

This time, Raymore didn\'t even need to speak up. One of the police officers stared at the crazed-looking man with a hard-stoned face.

"Why should they let the public know and engine turmoil? The situation is the same as having an alien come down from outer space. Things have to be kept hidden to prevent widespread panic."

Hm-hm.

Many nodded in agreement.

Recalling the movies about Aliens they had seen, they felt this situation should be similar.

Angzen thinned his lips, feeling they had somehow gotten the ring idea.

If the government wanted this to stay hidden, they wouldn\'t have allowed Dorian to set up a booth in public, handling such matters by listening to Raymore\'s words.

That is... Was it just him, or did Dorian not care if the entire world knew? And was he truly working with the government? Angzen didn\'t know.

But this didn\'t stop many from looking at him.

"You came with the other one (Chan-ki), so you must know about the boy. Then tell us. Is what Mayor Raymore saying true?"

Half in anticipation, half in dread, many questioned in a tone that was clearly managed.

"Tell us, why are you truly here?"

Angzen smiled forcefully. "Would you believe it if I said I was on my way to see my ghostly parents off?"

​ "..."

Angzen retold a little of what he had vine through, making everyone feel their hairs stand alert.

What? When people die, they could become ghosts? It wasn\'t a fictional thing but reality?

Once again, this made everything understand that no matter where they went, such things would always be around.

Just look at this Angzen, who had left another city and had met this unfortunate situation on his way to his village.

The facts were staring them straight in the face.

In the end, they have no choice but to live with these creatures till the day they die.

This... This...

What a gruesome fate.

Bam!!!

The sudden tremble had everyone jump like cats.

And throwing their heads towards Chan-ki\'s direction, their eyes took on a haunted look.

... How did this happen?
