Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 543  Hitchcoff's Despair

Hiss!

It hurt like crazy. Her cheeks now looked like she was suffering from mumps.

'How dare she? how dare this ugly, shapeless vixen touch by golden face? does she know how much the skin care products I use to maintain my looks cost? can she even afford a single drop of my morning cleansing dew?'

Eldora was pissed to the max, already making plans in her heart for the girl. But what she didn't know was that the girl in question was also seen as Military royalty in her country. Her family was a well-known military family, so uprooting her from any duty was a joke. Yes, she was wealthy, but you don't see her flaunting it about and misusing her power like Eldora. Seeing how obedient Eldora became, many shook their heads wryly. Sure enough, evil needs a greater evil to be cured. Only evil can cure evil. When Eldora met her match, she turned into a silent and cute-looking girl. Like that, everyone continued forward, flowing Dorian in silence once more, only this time,… they were 10 times more cautious than ever. After all, who knows when those creatures will return for them? (:Y^Y:)

[Host, I can feel the tomb site close.]

'Hmmm…' Dorian could also sense its presence, as well as the presence of something even more dastardly too. No… not the Horseman, but something else that bears a mark. [Host, could it be…] n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

'Yes.' Dorian's face turned grim. It was a portal, a gateway to the underworld, the largest they have ever encountered. If it was like any of the gateways he saw, he wouldn't be so concerned about it like he was now. No… something was off about it. But only after seeing it, will he know. Meanwhile, on the other side, down below, the atmosphere was far from peaceful. But to truly understand the matter, one must go back a few minutes in time.

Falling…

They say a sensation of falling occurs when the labyrinth Vestibular, fluid-filled system in the ear, detects changes in acceleration. When you ascend in a plane, your ears clog, making your brain and other body parts know you're ascending. And when you fall, the detection in your ear is also true. Time froze in this moment, allowing Hitchcoff to see his entire life flash through his very eyes. Falling into the abyss below, he knew this was the end. Below him were several giant snakes now raising their bodies to take a bite out of him, and above him were those terrifying half bat half snake beasts who were constantly letting out hungry cries for his flesh. And all Hitchcoff could do was tighten his grip on his dagger, swearing to never give up without a fight. Was he scared shitless? Yes. As should any human who saw a supernatural being for the first time. But as a trained soldier, after the momentary freezing came defense.

Fight! Hitchcoff raised his short blade in a fierce and sweeping movement, already aiming for the kill when the creatures got closer in his proximity. Ahhhh! The flying bat creature was too fast, knocking out his blade, grabbing his neck and opening its mouth 50 times wider, showing at least 6 rows of teeth lined up in horrific arrangements. No! No! Creeeeeeeee!!!!~

2 slithering tongues licked the sides of his face while still falling, and Hitchcoff had the feeling they were playing with their meal before eating him. Its saliva was sticky, green and foul, releasing bugs on his face from time to time. Hitchcoff gagged uncontrollably, wishing he could pour a truck load of mouthwash in its mouth. The stench was so bad it was making him slowly pass out. Soon, he felt his body weaken and his energy drain away in a flash. Was this his end? With a pale face, Hitchcoff watched as the creature's mouth grew closer and closer. And just when he closed his eyes, expecting the worst, he heard a peculiar noise coming from the creature. .

Creeeeeeeeyyyyy!!~

Hitchcoff felt his body tremble alongside the creature's cashing him to force his heavy eyelids open. "Singatium!!"

Boom! An explosive light bellowed, slashing straight into the creature's 2nd heart. Creeei? The creature froze, and then looked down, shocked evident in its face. Green blood was oozing from its right upper shoulder. And projected out of its right shoulder, was its 2nd stone-like, green beating heart suspended on a faint blue sword. The heart was ripped off clean, and was now being away from touch with the sword. Sling! The sword then moved sideways, cutting out from his right shoulder, still carrying the heart with it. But that wasn't all. Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!~

The creature had no time to retaliate, as Old Gia cut it down to bits in under a millisecond. Too cool! Apart from the first move Old Gia did, Hitchcoff didn't even see the rest. All he could see were the movements and after shadows of the faint sword. That was how fast Old Gia's moves were. (>*∆*)

F**"! Did you flipping see that? Did you see how cool Old Gia's moves were? Ninja! Ninja! No one could convince Hitchcoff that Old Gia wasn't a ninja from the east, the sort you see in movies. Now, resting on Old Gia's back, Hitchcoff felt relaxed, knowing he was in safe hands. He thought Old Gia and the disciples had already shown all his cards, but what happened next made Hitchcoff and many others who fell, look to them with reverence.

Bam! Old Gia kicked the giant snake's mouth, before running on its long slender body and counter attacking other giant snake mouths coming its way. F***! Hitchcoff was not afraid to say that he almost pissed himself during this time. Old Gia ran very fast on many snakes, running up their spiral loops, running down, and having many of them chase neck to neck at that place. But Hitchcock felt like his poor heart was dying when he realized that Old Gia had been running downwards, deeper and deeper into the swamp of thousands of snakes. Mommy... Why did he feel like he was on a rollercoaster ride to nightmare town?
