Chapter 81

*ROOOOAAAAAR*

It let another roar. No. This wasn't the woman anymore.

The roar had come from above.

I craned my head back and looked up, allowing my eyes to meet the piercing hazel-green eyes of a creature that kept most of its body within the shadows.

The only thing that I could see of it which would have even told me it was there were its eyes, but I could already guess that this must have been the creature that was attacking me with the root-like tentacles.

I was not stupid though. It knew where I was and therefore meant that it was about to attack me and so I began to sprint in a random direction once again, yet this time much faster than my random jumps and bursts of running that I was doing before.

*Thid* *Thid* *Thid* *Thid* *Thid*

I once again heard the thing hitting the trees but this time the hits sounded much more powerful. It was as if it was using all its power to create something that would destroy anything and everything within its path.

'I think I knew what you are...' I looked up at the creature in the shadows before looking back down at the woman who now had her head back intact, looking around with a confused expression.

'Seems like all of you are pretty stupid though.' I smirk crept up the corner of my mouth before finally bursting towards the woman.

As if she could hear my foot slam into the floor, she looked back at me allowing her to see my widening grin as well as an aura of confidence that I exuded like a solar flare.

I knew that the thing didn't see me as a threat, but at that moment I could see its eyes visibly widening while its face paled.

Its face has always been pale, but the difference this time could have been used as nightmare fuel.

Its face had become as white as milk and as smooth as a blank landscape that happened to have eyes and a mouth.

Watched as its hair sharpened and elongated, finally becoming long enough to shoot through the air and bend in every way possible.
