After a few hours of walking through the darkness of the forest and the river because of Jean's wrong path. Eventually they were able to breathe with relief, as not far from the forest had been faintly visible to the country's light, which Zee and Jean believed was quite large.
"Good, we can finally find the village. I look forward to renting lodging and a good meal tonight," Jean hoped as she occasionally glanced at Zee.
After that, the two of them rushed to the village. And when he arrived in front of the entrance gate Zee felt there was an awkwardness with the village he had just entered it.
"How strange is it that I feel that there is no aura of a living being in this village?" jean felt the same way.
While occasionally thinking and raising their vigilance tried to go deeper into the village. And when they arrived in front of a large wooden building with a circular taper roof, strange things began to happen. The thick fog that was out of nowhere it came from suddenly covered the streets and places around them.
"Aish! what else is this why the aura of his village is getting weird?" jean's grunt started to creep a little.
"***Guk Guk!"
"Awuuu***!...
***
The sounds of night animals such as wolves and some crows began to echo in the corners of the village.
"Gwakk!"
*Buurr!*
A crow suddenly flew up and almost clawed Jean's head and face if Zee had not been quick to pull her away.
"Fucking crow! how dare you attack us!" Murmured Zee with a bit of fury. The atmosphere around them became increasingly tense and the fog that covered their view both made Jean hallucinate.
"Dam!"
Jean felt a thick fog separating them and Zee's shadow in front of her slowly disappeared into the fog.
"Zeeeeeee!" where're you?"
Jean, who was starting to panic, pulled out her whip gun just in case. And the approaching black shadow began to form a silhouette that was able to make Jean's hair stand up temporarily.
"Girlgig!!"
*Plak! Plaque!*
"Why did you hit me Jean?" sumpul Zee who was caught off guard by Jean's behavior became upset, because he had hit him without cause and made his face have 2 red lines because of being hit by a whip.
"Ma. I'm sorry zee I thought it wasn't you so I.." said Jean bowed while Zee was still holding her red face.
"Kinkyslave..."
"What are you!?" they said both at the same time and after a few seconds in confusion the voice reappeared.
In front of the two of them, appeared a girl with long hair dangling with old-style traditional clothes was bowed. And after that his right arm was raised and pointed towards Jean, who had been hugging Zee in fear.
Long fangs sticking out from between his teeth, his elongated black hair decomposed and twitched like hair floating in water, plus a pale bluish face and black eyes that bulged. Adding a sinister impression on the creature.
"Aaaaakr!!!!"
That deafening scream apparently had the power to attack his opponent's soul. Jean who was not strong resisted the soul attack of the creature, then fell down and bowed. While Zee who was still conscious quickly drew his sword and aimed at the Creature.
"I've never seen a ghost like you capable of casting soul magic to attack its prey, but if you dare to hurt Jean I'll start to slash at you!" while darting towards the Creature Zee uses a talisman that contains an illusionary soul casting spell and attaches it to the tip of his sword.
The creature that was attacked just kept silent while tilting its head which was now almost upside down, and after a few snaps the distance from Zee's sword. The creature flexed its body like a snake to avoid attack, and used its tail to hit Zee hard enough forward.
"Uhhhk!"
Zee then gets back up to prevent the creature from attacking Jean, who is still frightened and motionless.
But the result was still nil because the creature was moving very fast, and some of the slashes of his sword Zee who hit and managed to cut the body of the Creature, into two parts remained useless. Because quickly, the creature easily put his body back together.
"Arkkkkkk! DAMN IT!"
"What a creature are you!"
"Even aura killing talismans and illusion release are useless!"
Zee who was a little anxious because he could not use any technique was getting panicked because he saw Jean's condition, whose gaze was getting empty.
You can try using the Golden Disc! in your space ring it's to defeat him.
The deg!
Zee heard the strange sound for the umpteenth time, so felt that the voice he first heard against the killer in the forest at that time was not a hallucination.
"Who are you and what do you really want from me?" zee shouted in a slight panic as he did not know the origin of the sound.
Who I am and what I want right now is not important.
You must immediately save the girl from the dream-eating Devil, or she will soon go crazy.
"Then how do you beat the creature?, all the ways I tried and nothing useful." asked Zee who was getting frustrated at the strange sound.
Take that Golden Disc in your spatial ring, drop a little of your blood then he will activate and automatically destroy the dream-swallowing demon domain.
Heard that. Zee awakens and finally understands that an ordinary ghost will not survive with talisman paper, and if it is true that the strange voice says that his opponent is now a dream-swallowing demon. Then Jean would really be in danger.
Zee quickly took out the Golden Disc and dripped a little of his blood. And instantly the disc reacted and by itself shot to the ceiling above the dream-swallowing demon was located. And the light from within the Golden Disc engulfed the entire dark aura scattered around the countryside where the demon domain was.
The disc draws and sucks up the evil aura and the dream-swallowing devil, and when the demon wants to rebel. Zee slashed it into two pieces with a sword, until the Golden Disc light swallowed the Devil and his aura to the end.
And after the dark aura was absorbed. The disc returned to Zee, as if understanding who the master and owner were. Zee immediately put it back into the space and time ring.
Segere after Zee approached Jean who was still unconscious and tried to resuscitate her. But because he did not come to his senses, he chose to carry him and immediately rushed away from the Cursed Village.
After leaving the village. Zee only realized that last night the crowd in the village they saw from a distance, it was just an illusion because when the morning dawned, the village looked like it should.
After nearly two hours of Zee's walking, he realized that Jean had actually woken up.
"Should you keep pretending to sleep?" zee told Jean, who was still closed.
"Hmm.. alright!"
Bruk!
"Ouch!"
"Is that how you treat a woman?" jean grumbled while grimacing in pain as Zee dropped her heartlessly.
"Well, princess forgive me, unfortunately I don't know how to treat a woman" Zee said as she continued walking without Jean's concern.
"Actually you just have to put me down and not have to drop me like that. "and even though he was a bit upset about Zee's behavior, he was somehow around his new friend, makes Jean feel very comfortable.
"Hey look!, it looks like there's a real village!, let's go there. Later after eating I will buy you a new dress." Jean's great-grandson as she pulls Zee to follow her, while being pulled can only resign.
After filling their stomachs, they rushed to the nearest market to buy supplies. Although can not find quality items as good as in the city, at least Jean can buy Zee some clothes because honestly, his boss's clothes have been torn and seemed tattered after several fights. And it became a conversation of village girls who want to shop at the market, because some of Zee's muscle bulges are partially plastered clearly.
Jean, who saw that, snorted bitterly and angrily he drove some of the gossiping girls from there. Even more ridiculous, who had done nothing, he was also expelled.
"Come again yes..! hehe."
After being satisfied choosing clothes and tipping the store owner. The two of them took a short walk to the village square area, and saw that there were many people crowding. The two of them who were also curious came closer to see.
"Oh. there was an important mission announcement from the City of Limestone Cliffs, I want to know what the mission is." Jean said while running forward.
Before getting near the notice board to pick up the mission scroll. A veiled young woman dressed in extravagant clothes with her horse crashing into the crowd and making some people panic, not least Jean who was the closest until she was almost hit
"Crazy girl are your eyes blind!, in front of you this is the daughter of the Sun Sect. Get out of the way, if you still want your arms and legs to stay intact!" said a young man who was also riding a horse right behind the girl from the Sun sect.
Zee who heard it, then went ahead of the horsemen, looking at them with a hostile look.
"Try you if you dare to hurt her, then I won't hesitate anymore!" zee said in an intimidating tone.
The equestrian girl stared at Zee quite intensely, according to him Zee was brave enough for a village youth, and his stature was also quite eye-catching. While the one being stared at is even indifferent.
Seeing the daughter of his sect being ignored by the unknown young man of the village, the young man on horseback became angry.
"Hey village boy is arrogant!" with a little sarcasm.
"Our lady has given you a brave face You ignore her are you a child tired of living?!" the young man continued riding to Zee who looked at him with disdain.
"Oh sorry ... I am a country person so do not know if the young lady is a princess. Because I think he looks mediocre." said Zee in a slightly condescending tone.
The young horseman who felt challenged wanted to come down and beat up Zee. But the riding girl told him to shut up.
The real Zee also wanted to advance to the riding man, stopped by a farmer uncle who accidentally passed by.
"Miss and the young cultivators please forgive the sassiness of these two juniors, they are still not old enough to think mature," said the uncle slightly bowing and cupping his arms. Zee who wanted to protest was immediately stopped by Jean.
"Don't mind them let's go!" concluded the riding girl, telling the others to end the problem today. But before he really left. He turned his head back towards Zee who was being held by Jean.
"Young sir, can I know your real name?" tanyakanya.
"Ze and my marg Xiao!, if the Sun sect does not accept please look for me!"
After that the riding girl actually went out from before them, while Zee and Jean were scolded by the uncle who had just.
"Your little brother, we are just ordinary people who must succumb to cultivators, as much as we can do not deal with them!, Hais." and the uncle left them.
Zee tried to advance to the front of the notice board and looked through the information from the board. And after that he also took a scroll of the mission's take-up mark, and put it in his pocket. After that Zee prepared supplies for his travel mission this time.
"If we could meet again then that would be an interesting thing."
Jean who sees it is not happy at all, because if Zee takes the mission means he will be separated from her. So as much as possible he will try to seduce Zee by taking her to his uncle's place first, to explain the issue of tournament registration next year.
