‘What's with him? Why does he seem to be afraid of me?’
Anna knew that what she saw was not just her feelings. In addition to the fear on the creature's face, Anna also saw the creature's hand that was holding a long spear with the tip like a trident was seen trembling.
Anna narrowed her eyes and looked at the red-skinned creature with little thought of the possibility that she might just know him.
In fact, the creature did not directly attack him when they were now only less than 5 meters away. An unnatural thing.
Any monsters Anna used to encounter, especially Orcs, would usually directly attack her.
Anna guessed, that it was possible because no one could sense her Mana energy, unlike her who could sense the Mana energy of the beings around her.
‘Is he afraid of being able to sense my Mana energy? Or.. lest he really know the owner of my body?'
Anna hesitated to attack and kill the red-skinned creature. If the latter's guess was correct, then he would have to figure out who exactly owned his body.
Quickly, Anna racked her brain in order to get information from the creature without making her suspicious. Wanting to ask directly, but he was worried if the creature did not answer and instead played tricks on him.
Anna laughed suddenly. The laugh he intentionally made.
He deliberately did it to see the reaction of red-skinned creatures that apparently reacted as expected.
The red-skinned creature looked a little surprised and his spear-wielding hand trembled even more when he heard Anna laugh.
“You already know me and still want to fight me?!" Anna suddenly.
The red-skinned creature who had been restless and bowed his head glanced at Anna for a moment, but he immediately turned his gaze and bowed his head even deeper when he realized Anna was staring intently at him.
Anna pointed downwards, towards the hundreds of Raptors who were gnawing at Bimo.
“Call them back, or I'll smash your head.” Anna orders with a loud voice that she hopes can make the creature even more afraid of her.
Sure enough, after Anna spoke to him, the creature's facial expression looked even more frightened.
However, just for a moment.
The red-skinned creature then fell silent and seemed to daydream something before finally for the first time he dared to look both Anna's eyes directly.
“You.... Who are you?” ask the creature. Although he asked her out loud, but her face still looked scared.
Anna was silent for a moment. When asked who he was, he really did not have the right answer because he also did not know who was in whose body.
Anna was worried, if she answered wrongly, then the red-skinned creature would immediately invite her to fight without giving an answer to all the questions that were jumbled in her mind.
Anna tried to look calm. As much as possible he made a facial expression to look scary and look like someone who was angry.
This kind of opportunity might be rare, or it might not even happen again. For the first time he finally met ‘someone’ who might know who the owner of his body is.
To find out how she could be in someone else's body as well as gain her power, Anna had to know in advance who the owner of her body was now.
To be sure, Anna knew that the owner of her body was not from the same nation as the creature, because they had different types of Mana energy, instead like the opposite.
“You already know who I am but you dare to ask?!" Anna snapped again, trying to buy some time to think of the next words that should have made the creature tell her who she was.
The creature looked hesitant again and Anna was able to catch the doubt feeling well.
For a while, Anna had the guess that the owner of this body might be a very cruel creature, to the point of making other creatures look very frightened just by looking at his face.
Unable to think of the right words to get the creature to speak, Anna ends up attacking just to frighten her.
Bukkkk...!
Anna's punch was lodged in the belly of a red-skinned creature.
Not there, Anna caught one of her horns and broke it.
Krakkk...
"Tell me, do you know me? I'll destroy you if you don't say it!" Anna threatened while strangling the neck of the red-skinned creature with her left hand, while her right hand brandished a broken horn down her pointed chin.
However, just like what happened to Ty-Rex, the horn in his hand suddenly became ash and evaporated.
The creature looked at Anna in horror, but still he did not say a word.
As she was about to run out of sense, Anna finally realized that there was a black hole in the middle of the cloud vortex above them.
Anna stared at the black hole, then looked back at the red-skinned creature. At that moment, Anna caught an even greater look of fear at him.
"Oh... So that's the door to your world? If you don't want to tell me who I am, how about we just go to your world? Maybe I'll make a little mess up there!" Anna threatened.
Instead of getting scared, the creature tried to attack Anna.
He aimed his spear eyes at Anna's stomach very quickly.
Yum!!!
Just as the spear's eye was about to touch Anna's body, the spear's eye was broken when it clashed with a golden light that suddenly appeared around Anna's body.
Anna catches the hand that just attacked her and pulls strongly, until she decides.
Crack...!
Just like before, the hand in Anna's grasp instantly evaporated, but not with her spear.
Seeing the still intact spear fall, Anna used her telekinesis ability to pull the spear back and capture it.
'This spear had a decent amount of magic energy. Well, even though one of his spear eyes has been broken anyway...'
Anna actually wanted to stab the spear at the creature before her, but after she thought again, she was worried that the black hole would be covered if the creature died. So, Anna decides to go towards the black hole by taking the creature with her.
As Anna darted away carrying her body, the creature tried to wriggle and shout obscure words stuck in her suffocated throat.
Anna paid no heed to it and continued darting into the black hole without reducing her speed at all.
Although she did not know what was waiting for her behind the hole, Anna had no other option to at least reveal the identity of the owner of her body. Because as such, he would also probably know who was behind the appearance of the Dungeon Gate on Earth.
After they passed through the black hole, they arrived inside a cave with dim lighting coming from several small torches on the wall of the cave.
As soon as Anna set her foot on the floor of the cave, she was surprised to see that there were 3 people there, sitting on a wooden bench and staring at him, also with a shocked face.
Anna could hardly believe what she had seen. He knew, those people were also human like him. However, with each of them possessing enormous Mana energy and a terrifying dark aura.
