The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

Chapter 331 - Searching For Shelter



I assume this village is probably safe, Desmond though. He then flicked Laura forehead, making her jolt and instantly open her eyes. She glanced at the surrounding with confusion with her feet that slowly touched the ground.

"Stay alert. There are many unknown dangers in here," While saying this, Desmond grabbed his sister\'s hand and told her to stay near him. Between family and servant, it was obvious Desmond chose the former.

The maids also didn\'t feel it was wrong for their young master to prioritize his family. They could only guard their back each other and vigilantly observed the surrounding.

The group slowly advanced forward, with Desmond in the front and the maids in the back. In the middle was Alice; she was happy she could hold her brother\'s hands after not meeting each other for a long time.

The smooth little palms she knew back then had been grown up to the large and rough. Now by holdings his hands, she could feel a sense of security. Yet no one realized and noticed her expression kept twitching in the pain as she hid her uncomfortable as some chains still attached to her body.

When they arrived in front of the mist, Desmond signalled them to stop. He looked at the dense mist, blocking his vision to peek at the situation further.

The mist was like free water floating in the air, slipping out and in between the village with some of them was touching his skin.

Desmond slowly inserted his hand and pierced the dense mist; the chilling and tickling sensation spread around his hand, and he saw the mist like a snake trying to wrap around.

It feels like I touching a slime, he thought. The sensation was gone when he found his hand already inside the mist, waving at the empty air.

"Stay here, if I do not come back for 5 minutes, you should leave and turn around, search for another way to meet with the others at the Beasts\' outer territory," Desmond spoke solemnly at them, but he found from their gazes that most of them seem unwilling to let him go. Especially his sister that silently stared at him while tightly holding his wrist.

"We can\'t let you die, young master," Laura, who had regained consciousness, was preparing her spells to enter with him while Annie already held her daggers in her hands.

He understood they were worried about him, but how could he explain? Alice was unconscious when he was battling and was killed severally, while the rest did not know he had an eternal body.

It\'s also troublesome bringing a girl when exploring the unknown danger, he thought and gazing at them for a moment before continuing, "You are too weak. If there is a danger, you only become a burden for me. Listen to my words; we have no time to argue."

The girls flinched upon his word; when he saw Desmond slowly entering the mist, they could not refute his words or hold him back. They could only helplessly watch his body swallowed by the mist.

Their purpose visiting this village was to find a shelter and rest their body, but who knows, the village was abandoned and filled with full of unknown dangers making them could not help but make a temporary safe camp in the entrance.

...

When Desmond arrived inside the village, he found the mist was surrounding the village border. The dark night that was full of stars changed into a bloody red sky with a large half-moon shining brightly at his arrival.

The paving ground was already tainted with moss and weeds, while the village buildings had some missing parts such as roofs and walls, leaving only the structure and the door standing.

*step* *step*

"Where are those strange existences?" On the way exploring the village, Desmond spotted human skeletons on the ground with black clothes on their body.

He stopped his track, squatted only to find the bones already corroded, and let out a foul and stinky smell. When he took a closer look at the black clothes, he found a familiar emblem attached to it making his pupil shrink.

"Imperial Assassins," Suddenly, a shadow jumped up from one of these village buildings; Desmond instantly reacted by dodging his body to the side.

*boom*

A small pit with the shape of teeth and mouth destroyed the paving ground while sending those human skeletons flying and several bones and some pebbles to the surrounding.

At the same time, a small cloud of dust formed because of the aftermath; Desmond could see a shadow moving between the dust and rushing to his location.

Control Element: Fire Spear

In an instant, the energy gathered and formed a hovering red flaming spear that immediately rushed to the shadow. The shadow was seemingly scared and wanted to avoid the attack, but...

*stab*

*growl*

*boom*

Unfortunately, it was flying in the mid-air as its body was in the most vulnerable state to receive his attack. The fire spear easily pierced the shadow creature and made it crash the building behind, leaving a long trail of fire on the ground.

The creature growled in pain while Desmond footstep could be heard, slowly approaching its location. The moment he arrived, he was stunned by the creature appearance.

"A ghoul? Why this creature is in this world?"

With its green blood wetting and flowing to the ground, the creature had the shape of a human with its body more bent like a monkey. Its mouth was bigger, with additional flesh overgrown with many teeth.

It was known as an undead creature belonging to the same kind as Vampire and Werewolves. However, to his knowledge, this creature from his past world should not be here as they are only fictional creatures from the books.

*growl*

Suddenly the ghoul moved, making Desmond was a bit surprised. It tried to pull out the flame spear that stabbed its body, but the moment its large hands came intact with his flame spear, the ghoul growled loudly as its body was enveloped by the fire and turned into ashes.

[Mass of Unique Energy Found!]

[Did Host want to absorb it Y / N?]

Desmond expressionlessly watched the process of how it died. He then glanced at the notifications and then chose to ignore them for a moment.

"This village really surprised me," As soon he spoke those words, Desmond immediately turned around, facing many incoming shadows that leapt to his location.
