Chapter 892

The old town they found themselves in was in a very remote area with valleys all around it. There was a wide bluestone path in the middle that was lined with houses on both sides. The group could not but feel a sense of peace and calm after they had entered the town.

They parked their cars in the open field near the town entrance and all nine of them got out of the car after that.

"Oh my god, this town is so quiet that it's unnerving!" said Diane.

There was not a sound coming from the town nor there was any light coming from inside the houses. In fact, the only light source seemed to be coming from the dimly lit street lights. "This town will be the perfect backdrop for a horror movie!" said Megan with a grin.

"Shut up, you brat," said Felicia. She was so scared that something would jump out and scare her then she immediately ran over to where Lillie and the other bodyguards were standing.

"There's definitely something going on in this town. I mean, yes the town is not that big but why are all the houses locked up like that? Does no one come out during the night at all?" Severin wondered out loud. After that, he started walking toward the houses. "Don't worry, ladies. Follow me and I'll keep you all safe."

The group followed him. The female bodyguards were on high alert as they could sense something was very, very off about the whole thing too.

After a while, they came to the front of someone's house.

"Hello? Is there anyone in there? What's going on here? Why is everyone hiding in their houses?" shouted Severin.

Seconds later, the door opened a crack and a scared middle-aged man's face popped out. He beckoned for the group to come closer and then he whispered, "Why are you all still outside? Come in, come in. We'll talk inside."

Severin and the group walked up to the door and the middle-aged man opened it wider for them to come in. The last of them had not even fully stepped through the threshold before he quickly shut the door again.

Once inside, the group discovered that the middle-aged man had a wife and a fifteen-year-old daughter.

"You guys must just be passing here, am I right? My advice is for you all to get out of here as quickly as you can 'cause... there are monsters here," said the middle-aged man with a sigh. He did not seem to be joking or lying.

"What?! There really are such things as monsters in this world?" cried Felicia with fright. She then turned to Diane and Severin. "I think we better leave here while we still can. I know the two of you are strong but no matter how strong you are, you'll never be able to win in a fight against a monster."

Before Severin could say anything, Lillie quipped, "Nah, I don't think there's any monster in this world. These ordinary people had never come across a mythical creature or a spirit beast before so they probably thought what they saw was a monster."

The middle-aged man and his wife exchanged confused looks with each other before turning to ask Severin, "Mythical creature or spirit beast? What are those?"
