~Grahhhhhhh!!!!!~~~
....
Everyone watched the scene in silence for the next for what seemed like an eternity.
And all they could hear were the gruesome cries of the creature before it.
Terrified was an understatement.
The creature looked like it had seen a ghost.
It kept shivering and cowering in fear as though trying to flee for its life.
But it found that it could move very far, maybe because of what Dorian was doing to it.
First, he sealed all the purple most back into its body.
And after the entire room was purified and clear of its presence, then, he began his exorcism.
It was just that looking at the creature who seemed too frightened by Dorian, everyone couldn''t help blinking in shock and a little fear deep down.
Look! If this thing was scared of the Grandmaster, then didn''t this mean that the Grandmaster was a shocking existence alone?
Say no more.
They secretly took note of the matter, swearing to never offend him no matter what.
Oh, dear... The Grandmaster sure was scary.
But then again, it''s because of his strength that they were able to survive so far.
So they were very grateful, to say the least.
Dorian nced at the cowering creature with an expressionless face.
"World below, world above... Creature of darkness, return to light!"
Boom!
To the creature''s horror, the golden rays from the circle array grew stronger than before.
~Shwahwahwahwah!~"
Dorian chanted thousands of words all at once at an incredible pace that made everyone feel as though he wasn''t even breathing when doing so.
And at this moment, the windows began troubling lightly, and the furniture also shook as well.
But because it wasn''t a stronger underworld creature, its effect wasn''t that astronomical in Butler Sheng''s opinion.
Look! There wasn''t even a strong wind, and the lights didn''t even flicker. So he also realized that maybe this thing was weak.
However, to the Obyns, the current effect was enough to make their toes curl in terror.
Not to talk of the horrifying wails of the creature, that seemed as though one was choking thousands of chickens all around.
Everyone''s body felt wet with sweat the more they watched.
And soon enough, the creature suddenly burst into mes from heaven-knows-where.
And then, the mes started disintegrating it, making it disappear right before their very eyes.
~Grwahhhh~~
The creature wailed and kept fading away into nothingness... Until it vanished altogether.
Poof!
(°?°)
-silence-
Everyone stayed silent, not knowing how to react.
Erm... Was it finally over?
~Dren-Dren-Dren!
The surrounding windows and furniture that had just quieted down suddenly shook again, giving them yet another jump scare.
But of course, it died down again after no more than 2 seconds.
[Audience]:... (o_o)
.
Everyone suddenly felt that these supernatural forces liked ying with their hearts.
That is, why go all out to always frighten them?<sub> </sub>
Dorian calmly removed control from the formation before clicking his fingers at it.
And now, all the lines that he had worked so hard to draw up, quickly erased themselves, returning the room to its original appearance.
Alright.
Now, everyone felt like there was nothing Dorian could do that would surprise them again.
Father Obyn nced at Dorian cautiously: "Grandmaster... Now, is it over?"
"Hmmm... Almost."
All... Almost?
F***! What else did they have to do again?
Fortunately, they have the Grandmaster with them. So no matter how many steps the enemy had taken to ensure their defeat, they were confident that the Grandmaster would be able to unravel everything at the flick of a wrist.
Dorian massaged his chin thoughtfully:" The creature we just defeated is called a Collector."
Eh? A collector?
The name caused everyone to drone a bit.
What exactly were they collecting to be named like so?
The other ones they took care of, came to collect something from them in their sleep.
But shockingly, that one wasn''t called a collector. So why this one?
What was so special about this one?
Everyone, including Butler Sheng, looked at Dorian eagerly
Well? What was the reason?
"The creature is called a collector because it''s the only creature that can collect and a vast range of things both involving underworld species and mortals. One can look at it as a vessel, with its primary purpose being to store whatever gets collected.
And once that''s done, it would transfer what it collected to wherever it wanted using its mind. In essence, the nightmare creatures and the collector were working hand in hand to steal something precious from you and your family."
As if understanding things, everyone''s eyes lit up like a torch.
So that''s how it is!
...
Everyone came up with their own theories and conclusions in their minds about the situation.
Butler Sheng, in particr, had few ideas on what was going on.
However, he once again stumbled on something worrisome.
"Grandmaster... From what you''ve said, this thing collects something from the youngdy. But now that we''ve killed them, how will we be able to retrieve what was lost?"
Boom!
Chiyou''s mind grew anxious.
Her luck! Her luck! Where the hell did her luck go?
Of course, she understood that they had to kill those things or else even if they let them loose, those things mighte for them again when the Grandmaster left.
Earlier on, she almost watched her family get killed by those things. So without a doubt, she would prefer her family to survive rather than get her luck back.
However, even though she coulde to terms with that, there was still a piece of her that wanted her luck back... But not to the point of putting her family in danger.
Her family seemed to understand this and could only nce at her pitifully.
Because of them, their girl''s luck might never return.
Yes! The creature carrying her luck got destroyed.
But at least, they would be together, no matter the circumstances.
So this was better than nothing.
.
Like so, they had all prepared for the worst.
It was just that Dorian''s following words made them too shocked to react.
Eh?
Blink. Blink.
