Chapter 74

[You have assisted in killing an Invisibility Cameleon]

[You have gained +5 EXP]

Once again, I felt the dread coming my way yet it was just far enough for me to look up, grab the fruit and take a last large bite out of it.

The woman had seen this clearly making her scream like a banshee in return, yet once again, I was ready for her attack.

Throwing what remained of the fruit away, I had grabbed my ax and swung it with all the strength that I could muster, swinging just at the right time to theoretically decapitate the woman with a single swing.

[Ding!]

*Swoosh*

*Splat*

The sound of my ax ripping through her neck reverberated throughout what seemed like the entire forest because it was just a second later that I realized how quiet everything had become, and at the same time, just how eerily dark the night was.

[You have consumed the Golden Fruit]

[Attributes and benefits shall be ingrained into your soul and the Immortal's system]

As if being put in slow-motion, I watched her head descend towards the ground, her eyes still locked onto me even after being detached from her body, while her smile seemed to be everlasting, not relaxing a single bit even after being sliced off its host.

"Kekekekekekekekekekekek"

The laugh was soul-shaking.

It was something one would hear from horror films back in my era.

Her laugh was croaky and almost disgusting. Her every syllable sounded like the soft yet sharp tapping of a wooden table.

Simultaneously, it felt as if her voice had a constant creak that made my previous theory of her vocal cords being made out of sand paper sound less plausible.
