Lingering cursed energy that is still smoking out of their dead bodies were attracted to the skull-hooded creature as if they are thrilled to meet this haunting creature. It happened not only to the ones near the creature but to every corpse on the open field, even the ones that are far from the center.

"Another cursed creature..." Adhara mutters before hissing a cold breath.

Despite the appearance of a skeleton that should belong to the Undead race, this ghastly creature definitely doesn\'t belong to the Supernatural race. Not only did it spark this weird phenomenon, but it also emit a horrifying presence.

Standing near its presence means surrendering to the invisible pressure that keeps building up.

Just like letting maggots dig through the brain and mind and eating it from the inside, only through the resistance and power of their own minds that they can remain their stand, nothing more can be done.

Adhara becomes desperate and exhausted, the night hasn\'t ended yet and it takes a toll on her.

"Obey our inert solicit, innocent one" The creature whispered, loading its words with an unexplainable energy force that stroke the hearts with cold fingers. Something that has never been experienced by the two.

Looking at each other briefly, the two of them frowned as the creature sounds like trouble.

Raising one of its skeleton hands that are coated and glazed by covert evilness unseen by the naked eyes, it talked again through astral voice, "Yield the Montbee to us, the obscure beast too complex for your psyche mind and we\'ll leave your sanctuary alone"

Speaking in riddles, Adhara and Evelyn frowned in confusion. \'Montbee? What\'s that?\'

"What are you? and what is the Montbee you speak of?" Adhara grabs the edge of the wall and asks, she was not going to insinuate anything if she doesn\'t need to. For better or worst, they are unfit to have any more problems right now.

Flunra and Gistella are unwell, the two of them are all that is left to defend the castle.

Gazing at Adhara with its hollow eyes and also tilting its head a little, the skull-hooded creature paused for an uncomfortable amount of time before it finally replied, "I\'m the child of she who enlightens, and the Montbee is the cursed creature inside your walls. Give it to me, she will appreciate your tribute in return..."

Upon hearing this Adhara is now sure that this creature is talking about the Cursed Bee.

\'But who is this \'she who enlightens\' that this creature is referring to?\' Adhara wonders inside her head, she has never heard of anyone that is called \'she who enlightens\' that sounded like a nickname given from past eras.

Although she was confused, she now knows that giving it what it wants will be the best choice.

However, she can\'t disperse the uneasy feeling inside of her due to the fact that this creature is not only something that she doesn\'t know and there\'s also no kind of emotional aura coming out of it. Not one creature she has ever met has this kind of unique trait, not even the cursed creatures.

Everyone has an emotional aura, and without it, Adhara can\'t really read through this creature.

"With our condition, it\'s best to give it what it wants. I have a prominent feeling that we shouldn\'t mess with this weird creature" Evelyn whispered from the side, also having the same gut feeling as Adhara.

Nodding her head, Adhara turns around and went back into the castle.

Quickly going through the hallway and heading to the back part of the castle near the courtyard, she went into the storage room that leads to an underground space where she puts the Cursed Bee\'s corpse.

Due to her being able to defeat the Cursed Bee, she puts the corpse there.

But it wouldn\'t matter if she considers the Cursed Bee\'s corpse to have somekind of sentimental value, she can\'t retain it and it\'s best to give it away to the skull-hooded creature outside lest it forces its way inside and endangers the others.

Grabbing ahold of the corpse, Adhara wanted to carry it out but her eyes caught something.

At the center of the Cursed Bee\'s chest can be seen a somewhat dark glow underneath its skin, something that Adhara didn\'t realize before. Now that she realizes it, she can\'t help but wonder what the object underneath the skin is.

\'Help...\'

"Hmmm? What was that?" Adhara mutters in confusion.

While she was looking at the object at the center of the Cursed Bee\'s chest, she can subtly hear a whisper but it was too light even for someone that has keen senses like her. It\'s inaudible and that made her frown.

Looking around the place, she finds nothing inside except for her and the corpse.

Adhara started to doubt her own ears, "Am I imagining things?" Must be..."

Deciding that it was probably nothing knowing full well that her body must be very tired from the fight against the Cursed Bee earlier and also not having the time to rest, there\'s a huge chance that she might be hearing things due to her own condition.

In fact, she believed that it was the case, there was nobody here with her.

Placing her mind and attention back on the dark glowing object, she bit her lower lips feeling curious about what it is. But she can\'t do anything except for leaving it, \'No, no, no... let\'s just leave it be. That creature might\'ve wanted it\' Adhara shakes her head.

Since the fight with the cursed creatures earlier, she learned something from it.

Knowing that she\'s dealing with a cursed creature right now, she knows that it\'s best to leave it be.

Suppressing the curiosity that is crawling inside of her, she lifted the Cursed Bee\'s corpse before she ascend the stairs and went outside of the storage room. Following the hallway, she intended to get back to the wall again as Evelyn is still there keeping a watch on the skull-hooded creature.

Just as she was about to reach the great hall, the dark glowing object flickered.

It flickered right when Adhara was about to enter the great hall where the red gate portal is still flooding the ground with blood, then the dark glow melted into a shadow of dark energy and seeped out of the Cursed Bee\'s body.

Due to its formlessness and aura-less construct, Adhara didn\'t realize this.

Floating around the hallway like a ghost, this dark shadow hovers left and right as if it was has a mind of its own and searching for something. Black trails were left behind which slowly fade as the dark shadow went further away.

Not long after, it stopped at a door. A troubled moaning sound can be heard from the inside.

As if the troubled moaning sound draws the dark shadow\'s attention, it went down to the gap below the door before seeping inside the room. Every little trail that it had left then dissipated away, never to be exposed by anyone.

Meanwhile, Adhara got back to the wall with the Cursed Bee\'s corpse.

Evelyn is relieved that she finally got back as being alone with the skull-hooded creature is not a fun experience, her eyes then got immersed in the Cursed Bee\'s corpse that Adhara is carrying on her shoulder.

Something bizarre that she hasn\'t seen, it\'s like a mix of a human and a bee with dark contrast.

"Did something happen when I\'m away?"

"No, it just stands there like that. I\'m creeped out by it"

Upon hearing this Adhara nodded her head, she glanced down before jumping down from the wall. "Adhara! Are you insane?! Don\'t go out there" Evelyn exclaimed from the back, fearing that the skull-cursed creature is going to do something to her.

"Relax, I\'m just going to throw the corpse to it" Adhara replied before she looks to her front again.

Going to the torn part of the barrier surrounding the castle from the fight against the Cursed Bee earlier, Adhara held the Cursed Bee\'s corpse with one hand before throwing it toward the skull-hooded creature.

Crash!

Although it\'s not a perfect throw, the Cursed Bee\'s corpse landed near the haunting creature.

Adhara instantly went back up to the wall while keeping her eyes on the hooded skull creature that is standing still like a statue. But it then moved when it saw the Cursed Bee\'s corpse, approaching and kneeling beside it.

Placing its skeleton hand onto the corpse, black energy soon engulfs the entire corpse.

Nothing was left after the black energy recede as if the Cursed Bee\'s corpse is incinerated or teleported somewhere. Either way, the Cursed Bee\'s corpse disappears from the place before the hooded skull creature stands back up again.

"May we meet again..." The hooded skull creature whispered before it disappears into thin air too.

Upon the disappearance of the hooded skull creature, the two of them can finally breathe easy, the invisible pressure that is building inside their bones, stiffens their bodies and stings the meat of their flesh had finally disappeared.

Sighing in relief, Evelyn hisses coldly, "What was that creature anyway...? Its presence is too strong"

"Yeah, I know. Cursed creatures are always the hardest to deal with" Adhara replied while also sighing in relief, the castle is now finally reclaim back its safety, and she hoped that is the last event this night has to offer for them.

Adhara doesn\'t know if she can deal with anything more than this, her body is already screaming.

With that, the two of them went back into the castle after dealing with the hooded skull creature and went into the bed chamber. This night is a cold night even though it\'s nearing its end, and both of them decided to sleep in Rex\'s bed chamber together.

For some reason, this bed chamber is warmer than other places.

Evelyn and Adhara are facing their backs against each other, facing the wall and the window on their side of the wall. Despite their position, both of them have the same thing in mind which take about twenty minutes of their time.

It hasn\'t been too long, but both of them are longing for Rex\'s presence.

Rex\'s absence made them realize a lot of things. Each of them realizes different things, but the two of them realize one common thing, it was the fact that Rex is the wall that blocks all kinds of bad things that are going to happen to them.

Just like an unbreakable wall that shields them from the horror of the world.

With him around there is no such thing as fear of the unknown, Rex knows everything and acts accordingly to gain the best possible outcome. Something that they haven\'t appreciated more with him around.

Under the loneliness of the night, Evelyn buried her face into the pillow.

Evelyn is sleeping on Rex\'s side of the bed and the thick bodily scent that lingers on the pillow eases the longing she had for his presence, and the fact that there\'s a possibility of Rex not coming back drowns her in a deeper sorrow.

Slipped out of her control, a tear falls down her eye and leaves a dark dent on the pillow.

Trying her very best to hide the sorrow and the whimper that is desperately wanting to escape her mouth, Evelyn bit her lips before closing her eyes to try and get some sleep. At the very least, she doesn\'t want Adhara to see her like this in such a dire time.

Unknown to her, Adhara is also the same as she lies on her side of the bed in tears.

\'Please come back, Rex...\'

Both of their consciousness then faded away into the dreamworld with Rex\'s scent soothing their souls and forcing them to sleep. It was a good sleep for both of them, rejuvenating themselves to prepare for a new day.

But sadly, their sleep was interrupted at the first streak of sunlight by a loud scream.
