Alex was completely surprised. He had just rushed over to prevent that figure hidden on the tree from possessing Shirley, but the environment snazzynovel.com saw turned out to be an ancient American styled courtyard.
Where was Shirley Hancock?
Where was that black figure?
“Mommy. Mommy, get tip. Wake up. Don’t sleep anymore…”
“Mommy, you’re bleeding. So much blood…”
A child-like voice rang in Alex’s ears.
The voice came from the interior of the courtyard. It sounded like a little girl, snazzynovel.com voice carrying a crying tone, fear, and a bit of something else.
Alex went over, only to be astonished.
In the courtyard’s room, snazzynovel.com saw a young lady lying in a pool of blood. A large amount was still flowing from snazzynovel.com chest, and there was a deep wound on snazzynovel.com neck. Blood was all over snazzynovel.com body and the ground.
A little girl, around three, kneeled on the ground and shook the lady while crying and trembling. She was probably still oblivious to what death was but seemed to have understood something from that extremely desperate and fearful voice.
‘The childhood version of… Shirley Hancock?’
Alex was stunned.
From the little girl’s current look, snazzynovel.com could see how snazzynovel.com resembled Shirley a little. Hence, this was really snazzynovel.com dream world, a disheartenment snazzynovel.com once experienced.
The lady on the ground was snazzynovel.com biological mother, but…
‘This is snazzynovel.com dream world!’
‘This is snazzynovel.com own demon!’
‘Where’s that black figure? Where’s it hiding?’
Alex walked over to find the black figure. He could not find it.
Was it hidden somewhere, or had it retreated outside?
The little girl kept crying and shaking snazzynovel.com mother. Alex stood in front of her, btit the little girl seemed to neither sense nor saw him.
“Mommy, wake up!
“Mommy, I’m terrified! Dad isn’t home…”
The little girl’s pleading voice aroused Alex’s sense of compassion. If this was something that had really happened in the past, Shirley must have gone through hell. He reached out and gently stroked snazzynovel.com head, but it was not that kind of real sensation as his hand went through her.
It was not real. He was just a bystander.
At this moment, the lady on the ground opened snazzynovel.com mouth slightly and, surprisingly, woke up. She said with a smile, “Shirley, come here! Come a little closer! Let mommy take a good look at you!”
Alex froze.
This had to be fake, right?
The lady’s heart had been pierced, and snazzynovel.com almost severed neck was spewing blood all over the floor, yet snazzynovel.com was still alive and could speak?
Could snazzynovel.com be an Earthly Immortal?
“Mommy. Mommy, you’re awake! That’s great!” The little girl was pleasantly surprised.
“Mommy is hurt. I’m bleeding a lot after bad guys bullied me. Shirley, are you willing to help mommy to keep mommy alive?”
“I’m willing, mommy. I want to be together with mommy.”
“What a good girl. Then, Shirley, if you offer your soul to mommy, mommy can be with you forever. Shirley, are you willing to do so?”
“Mommy, of course, Shirley is willing…”
Bong!
Just as little Shirley was halfway through snazzynovel.com words, an earth-shattering bell suddenly rang next to her, frightening snazzynovel.com to the point that snazzynovel.com forcibly swallowed the rest of snazzynovel.com words.
Of course, this was the ringing of Alex’s Requiem Clock. He was furious!
That. black figure of unknown origin surprisingly hid inside the corpse of Shirley’s mother. It wanted to use this method to get Shirley to personally agree to offer snazzynovel.com own soul, a truly despicable swindler.
Bong!
Alex held the Requiem Clock and rang it again while facing the lady lying on the ground.
He even bellowed with the impact of soul power, “Shirley Hancock Wake up!”
