Bang Bang Bang!
Amid the loud and heavy thuds, the ground shook.
The large crowd of ghosts split up left and right neatly, and two large figures approaching from afar.
Victor’s eyes unconsciously widened, his jaw dropping because that suffocating pressure from the giant figures rendered him speechless.
Next, Victor was shrouded by the shadows casted by the giant figures.
He looked up at the two towering giants, his throat dry. He wanted to swallow his saliva to ease the dryness but he realized he couldn’t, petrified by what he saw!
The monsters that appeared in his sight went far beyond anything that he could ever imagine.
An ox-head and a horse-face!
The two towering monsters were at least 10 meters tall, even the crown of the trees couldn’t reach them, the tallest trees in the area only as tall as their waists!
More importantly, the vicious presence of the monsters was off this world. It wasn’t just because of their strength, it was also because of their killing intents and every sign told Victor these two monsters weren’t just there for decoration.
“Guards, they came with the item his lordship seeks.”
Bloody Mary, who had been guiding the man and ghost, bowed at the two ‘guards’.
Victor and You also bowed after Bloody Mary and this time Victor did not even hesitate.
Even if he had no memories, he felt these two towering monsters were the kind that kill without blinking.
“Enter!” Minotaur said in a low, heavy voice.
Its voice sounded like a clap of thunder in Victor’s ears, cramped his chest, but he didn’t care because of what happened next.
The horseman bent over and grabbed several trees in front of it.
Pak Pak Pak Pak!
A single pull uprooted several trees together.
A giant entrance to a cave was shown to Victor and You, and with the low light from the moon, the two of them saw a flight of stairs leading down, but it was too dark to see where it was leading to.
“His lordship is waiting inside, just follow the stairs to him,” Bloody Mary pointed at the cave entrance.
“I understand,” Victor and You nodded before they walked down the flight of stairs.
They did not suspect a thing!
Or rather, when the sea of ghosts and the monster duo appeared, even Victor, who suspected a little, believed everything.
The stairs were long and had many steps, yet they were straight and neat.
The mystical runes etched along the walls were enough to astonish even the mystical individuals.
Bloody Mary had already made up the name Dark Dominator, so it had to pay attention to details.
Plus it had lots of ‘manpower’ to help, so it made this long corridor look even better, filled with a mysterious and unpredictable aura.
“The negative energy here is so dense!” You exclaimed and then squinted her eyes pleasantly.
For a special ghost like her, this kind of special negative energy was exactly what she sought.
Victor, on the other side, twisted his neck out of discomfort, but he was soon captivated by the mystical runes on the walls.
He couldn’t read them, without his memories he couldn’t tell what the words meant, but his feelings told him these runes were very powerful.
It felt very profound and fierce just by looking at it.
“You, can you read these runes?” Victor asked softly.
“I can’t but it’s powerful. I’ve followed you for many years and seen a lot of mystical runes and wordings myself but none are more complicated and more profound than everything here. If the Dark Dominator can utilize these kinds of mystical runes, he may be stronger than we thought,” You spoke softly.
“Is that so? Maybe his lordship can really help us,” Victor heaved a long breath.
He wasn’t worried that the Dark Dominator wasn’t strong enough, quite the opposite, the stronger the Dark Dominator was, the better.
Only then could he secure his own safety.
According to what You told him, Victor knew what kind of atrocity he had committed.
“But I worry...”
While Victor felt relief, You felt uneasy.
It was her idea to work with this Dark Dominator and she suggested it because she was confident enough. Even if the worst case scenario would unfold, she could still bring Victor away safely, but after she saw all these mystical runes, her confidence was defeated.
“Don’t worry. Big shots like him always have their own bearing. They won’t simply embezzle things they could get the proper way,” Victor said confidently.
You sighed and nodded, accepting what Victor said, despite his words feeling naive most of the time.
Though, wasn’t that the very reason why she decided to follow him in the first place?
The human and ghost pair walked further.
Bloody Mary then slowly showed itself from the shadowy spot after the two of them went ahead.
It looked at the back of the pair and curled up its lips into a grin.
It wasn’t any kind of big shot or important figure, but its boss was a true big shot!
“Lucky fella,” Bloody Mary exclaimed.
It never thought a person could be as useful and valuable as Victor. From the start at Ring City to the potential problems that could appear later, Victor was the whole package!
He could be awarded model worker of the year!
Bloody Mary put all those fake mystical runes on the wall just for show and all of its efforts did not go to waste!
That’s right, all the mystical runes on the wall were fake. They seemed very complicated and profound but they were useless.
Other than a confusing look, they were nothing but specially designed patterns.
As for the negative energy?
Thousands of ghosts gathered in one single place, even if there weren’t any in the first place, would be filled with negative energy when they appeared.
Of course, everything until now was just the prelude. The real show started from here onwards.
Bloody Mary dived into the ground and beat Victor and You to the end of the corridor.
At the end of the corridor, the hall that wasn’t even complete, but Bloody Mary popped up.
It looked at the stone door and its body started to fade.
Even though it was still in a sealed state, it still kept some of its traits, especially when they were only one door apart.
Bloody Mary had the confidence to perform this play with perfection.
Tendrils extended from its shallow body swiftly, black as ink and a little bit of wicked energy coming out from the ends.
Bloody Mary used the Cardinal Sins Beast as reference, its weakened body allowing Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Wrath, Sloth and Envy’s presence to go beyond the door.
It was only a little bit but it was sufficient to stop Victor and You right away.
The two of them felt discomfort.
The power that triggered their mixed emotions hurried their breaths and made them sweat.
The Dark Dominator was beyond the stone door?
If they already felt this level of discomfort with a door apart, what would happen if they went in?
Victor and You believed the Dark Dominator had already suppressed his aura, the level of energy they felt was the compressed version.
So, what if it erupted?
They might fall into a realm of endless illusions and their heads would explode.
The aura they felt was already this strong, so how strong would the real thing be?
With lingering fear, Victor suppressed all the desires and fear that tried to break free from his heart, slowly walking to the door and knocking on it.
Knock, Knock.
