Poison Eve
Chapter 63

"What do you want?" Electra froze at the edge of the sinkhole, watching the five foreign men who surrounded her with wary squinting eyes.

The five foreign men were wearing coats with headgear. Their faces were obscured by the shadows of their respective headscarves.

"Murid of the Dream God Academy," one of them hissed in a thin mutter. His voice sounded like the whisper of the wind.

"Be careful!" friend warned. "Who knows he's being escorted by the Knights of the Order!"

The first man pulls the corners of his lips forming a thin grin. "Only a bodyguard-level disciple," he snorted scornfully. "Do you need to be escorted by elite forces?"

"Say what do you want?" Electra interrupted impatiently.

The first man chuckles without a sense of humor.

Electra could feel the aura of the man pressing down on her. A murderous aura that only knight-level Spiritual Masters with a spiritual level of at least fifty had. He was definitely not an ordinary thief, Electra thought. Maybe not a simple person either.

But what does he want from a little girl?

"Descendants of Rodrigo Knight..is he male or female?" The first man with the most domineering aura looked into Electra's eyes with squinted eyes.

"I don't understand what you're saying" Electra sighed in a trembling voice. His knees were suddenly dazed and his head was floating as the man blazed a sharp glare.

"Just answer!" hiss the man with a cold face. His voice was getting quieter and thinner, but the pressure he exerted was getting bigger.

"I don't know!" answered Electra insisted.

"Little girl is stubborn," the man hissed ever thinner.

Electra's neck was suffocating and the top of her head was being suppressed by an invisible force.

"What's his name?" the man asked again, still in a sharp whisper that sounded like the wind.

"I don't. understand.." Electra squealed in a suffocating voice. The entire color was drained from his face. A thread of sweat rolled down his temple. Both of his legs were bent with trembling.

The faintness of the shadows shot out a thin, imperceptible wind except by the first man with the most dominant aura. The other four men were unaware of it.

The man's gaze rolled into the corner of his eyes and instantly the suffocating pressure of Electra began to diminish.

Electra gulped and inhaled as much air as possible to fill her burning lungs. Then he looked carefully through the corner of his eye.

Nothing is suspicious.

But the mysterious man with a thick murderous aura was looking warily scrutinizing his surroundings.

The other four men glanced at the man and exchanged glances with his friends.

There was a thin rustling sound that was not caught by ordinary hearing.

The first man's eyeball rolls to the other side, listening carefully.

Silent.

Suddenly one of his friends screamed and fell to his neck. Soon, his breathing flinched and did not move anymore.

Electra swallowed and stuttered with her eyes and mouth rounded.

"Show yourself!" the first man growled while jerking his head to and fro with a sharp looking look.

There was no sign of anyone's presence.

The other friend screeched and instantly drooped without a sign of life.

"Dastardly bastard! Show me who you are!" the first man grew increasingly windy and began to put up the horses.

The two surviving comrades simultaneously close themselves and turn their backs on each other and put up horses. Tighten their eyes and ears with caution.

Suddenly something shot up from the ground and tore the neck of one of them.

The first man spontaneously threw light energy blindly. "How dare you attack secretly!" the man growled in anger.

The man grew increasingly furious and threw out a ball-shaped light energy towards Electra.

YOAAARRRR!

The Electra bounced and was thrown to the ground. The man broke his teleportation.

Simultaneously, his last comrade also drooped and died on the spot.

The man groaned in annoyance and fled by teleportation.

Electra frowned and sighed rising up her body trembling and panting. Then look on with anxiety. What the hell's going on? he wondered in his heart.

Has the man really left?

Who attacked them?

A soundless movement at ground level made the Electra spontaneously bowed and wide.

Migi Vox stood by his feet with both hands crossed behind his body. The puppet looked up at Electra while grinning.

"Lord Vox!" hiss Electra with a mixture of horror and relief. Then he looked around for the figure of the owner of the academy that he thought might be hiding in a corner around the dump, but did not find it.

Migi Vox shot up to the roof of one of the rundown buildings not far from where Electra fell.

Part of the roof of the building was destroyed by the attack launched by the foreign man when Electra teleported.

The doll paused for a moment and turned to Electra as if trying to ascertain if Electra was following her.

Electra immediately jumped to her feet and followed him.

Migi Vox turned his body and soared to the roof of another building, then darted leading Electra's steps up to the academy's gate.

Nazareth waited in front of the gate with a flat face. Migi Vox jumped into his arms and crept around the man's neck.

For a moment, Electra did not know what to do, only freezing under the cold gaze of the man with his head bowed.

"Come in!" nazareth's orders in a thin mutter that set up a Roman feather. Then turned around and walked slowly leading Electra's steps towards her estate.

Electra followed him clumsy and agitated. Is he angry? He wondered in his heart. "Thanks, My Lord.." he muttered timidly, his voice choking in the throat.

"Next time never leave my estate without my permission!" Nazareth warned.

"Well," Electra answered almost inaudibly.

Arriving at the cottage grounds, Electra found her four friends lined up in the yard with their heads bowed. Both of their shoulders hung limp on his sides. Their faces were fidgeting.

Nyx Cornus stood with his nose looking up in front of them. His hands crossed in front of his chest. His face looked unsightly.

Electra stuttered at them one by one. They glanced back with guilty faces.

"You are condemned to run around Morfeus Statue for twenty rounds!" nyx Cornus. Her gentle face that always looked friendly and sweet suddenly disappeared changing into a horrible toned face. That's the other side of Nyx Cornus. He is best known as the owner of double-devil and angelic temperament.

If so, no one would dare to look at Nyx Cornus. Especially denied.

"And you!" Nyx Cornus turned to Cleon Jace with an intensity of gaze that could burn as well as freeze. "Because you proposed, your fault was the most. Your punishment is the most severe. You must run thirty rounds."

Cleon swallowed with difficulty.

Evelyn and the other friends were flabbergasted.

Morfeus Statue Park is twice as large as the flag field used by all children to warm up every morning.

Electra blinked and opened her mouth, preparing to plead. But Nyx Cornus' sharp gaze then rained down on her as well, making the girl freeze on the spot.

"Can't use the power of light!" Nyx Cornus added.

Evelyn's feathers simultaneously bristled. So do his friends.
