Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?-Chapter 95 Nightmare Ghouls!

Like so, the family all stood up abruptly while gazing at Dorian with so much awe in their eyes that it was almost blinding.

And their move only made the system even more dumbfounded.

(?_?)

How?

How could these humans be like this after its host allowed them to kneel and bash their heads onto the floor?

How come they aren't even the slightest bit aggrieved?

It was at this point that the system tonally chose to give up.

Sigh... Humans were truly a confusing bunch!

.

After standing up, Chiyou's father looked at Dorian cautiously: "Grandmaster... What were those things that attacked us earlier?"

Instantly, everyone's ears stood at attention. Even Butler Sheng faced Dorian, focusing all his attention on him.

Yes! What exactly was the Grandmaster fighting?

Butler Sheng didn't see anything, but the family of 4 all seemed to have seen something there.

So why? Why was it that he couldn't see or hear anything?

All he heard were the creeks of the floor around the region where the Grandmaster sent his attack to.

But he didn't hear any screams or see anything. However, it seemed that this family of 4 seemed to have seen and even heard horrifying cries on their one path.

Of course, he was basing these conclusions on how he met the family of 3.

That is, when he stepped into the room, they were all crouched down with their hands over their ears and faces while shaking hard.

What was even surprising was that Chiyou, who stepped into the room alongside himself, seemed to see something there and also jumped back in shock too.

She kept pointing while saying that the things there were burning from Dorian's attacks.

Again, what was stranger, was that Chiyou, who didn't cover her ears on time, now had blood oozing out from it after listening to the high-pitched screams of whatever was before her.

However, all this was still baffling to him since he couldn't hear or see anything.

And this alone made his curiosity jump off the roof!

Why? Why was he exempted?

How could one fight an enemy they can't see or hear?

Butler Sheng's heart went cold while digesting the shocking revelation of today's matter.

He clenched his fists and stared at the scene where Dorian shot his attack at, only coming to terms with the hard facts too.

Hehehehehe!

Maybe because of the past few incidents, he had become too comfortable, thinking that he knew more or less about what sort of enemies they would be up against.

But now, he knew that he still had a long way to go!

.

The others looked at Dorian curiously, with a hint of fear in their hearts.

What were those things?

"Nightmare Ghouls."

Eh? Nightmare Ghouls?

"Hmhm... Nightmare Ghouls. They can only be seen or heard by those they mark. And like a spider creating its web, they'll visit you daily and take something from you!"

What?!!

The gang of 4 all opened their eyes in transformed horror.

Those things did say that they were supposed to see them up. So didn't this mean that every day for the past how many weeks, these things had been visiting their home like so?

Instantly, countless beads of sweat began forming on their backs and foreheads the more they thought about things.

What? What were these creatures taking from them?

This... This...

"Uagh~"

Chiyou's mother gasped feebly as her legs turned into jelly.

She weakened onto her husband's body, going over the Grandmaster's words in her mind once more.

The truth was too hard to bear, leaving not just her... but the rest of the family lost as well.

However, Dorian wasn't done yet.

"Nightmare Ghouls are a terrifying group with the sole purpose of creating dreadful nightmares for their victims. And after each nightmare, the victim will continuously fall into a deep slumber that would keep increasing relative to the number of times visited by the ghouls."

Ding!

An invisible lightbulb lit up in everyone's brain.

"Grandmaster, I think we all experienced their works while asleep!"

"Yes! Yes! That's right. And additionally, these creatures seemed surprised to see us awake too!"

"Exactly, they also seemed a little panicked, wanting to kill us off immediately, now that we saw them!"

"Yes! Yes! Grandmaster, that's the impression they gave!" f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

(*^*)

...

Chiyou's father, mother and brother all remembered that they seemed to be trapped in several horrific dreams that were just too terrible for words alone.

And no matter how they tried to wake up, nothing they did seemed to work!

,m They had been chased in their nightmare nonstop, with countless incidents happening all around them.

As for Chiyou, because of her fate and her overflow of blessings from the heavens, she didn't fall into a coma.

No... Even though a majority of her luck had been stolen, the enemy was still in the process of drawing it all out.

So she was the lucky one amongst the rest to avoid the Nightmare situation.

However, she had long been marked, as the ghouls were just waiting for the perfect opportunity when her luck would have all gone away. And by then, they would strike her down!

Well, that was indeed their plan. Too bad that Chiyou ran into Dorian.

If not, their family of 4 will all die without even understanding why.

.

Nightmare Ghouls!

Butler Sheng had finally gotten the answer to his question.

Yes. He understood that he couldn't see or hear them because he wasn't marked.

But it was just that something else kept him puzzled.

"Grandmaster, why was it that these creatures seemed anxious to kill them off after realizing that their targets could see them?"

"That's because they're nightmare Ghouls that exist to create an illusion or facade. Their entire survival depended on them being hidden. Bottom line, their powers grow weaker the moment their prey spots them. And if this went on, they would lose control over their prey." Dorian said calmly: "Find them, break their illusions, and you'll win. Remember this, Butler Sheng... It is their greatest weakness!"
