Midnight Mansion (10)
【Our future child will be called Joshua.】
Just as this line of words reached Taehyung's eyes, he faintly heard Ren Xue's voice: "You understand it?"
Taehyung looked up with a look of surprise only to suddenly freeze up.
Not far in front of him, Ren Xue revealed an extremely strange smile and gently rubbed her stomach as if there was an unborn life inside her.
On her neck hung the emerald necklace that emitted a strange green flow.
Wang Jianming who was holding onto the necklace not long ago looked down at his empty hands with a pale face. The necklace was now on Ren Xue's neck!
"Xiao Xue!"
Wang Jianming was anxious. He reached out wanting to take off the necklace, but Ren Xue reacted first and grabbed onto his shoulders.
Her nails had become long and sharp and it easily penetrated through his clothes and flesh. In pain, he grimaced while crying out: "Xiao Xue!"
"Dear, answer me quickly. Do you think Joshua is a good name?"
Ren Xue's mouth opened into a smile.
Her mouth opened wider and wider until it made up almost half her face. Large amounts of blood and flesh poured out from her throat and her tongue waved about wildly as she let out a harsh scream.
"Answer me! Is it a good name? Is it?!"
"Xiao-Xiao Xue….."
Her nails had pierced deeply into Wang Jianming's shoulder and, in a blink of an eye, he was covered in blood.
With an anguished expression, he twisted around in pain, but he continued to persevere and reach out to her wanting to remove the necklace from her neck. In the end, his arms could only fall weakly by his sides.
Taehyung was in shock for a few seconds.
He was scared to the point that his face was ghostly pale. He quickly looked back at Jungkook and anxiously asked for help
Taehyung (Tae)
Jungkook, do you have anymore holy water? Hurry and save those two!
Jungkook frowned slightly. He shook his head
Jungkook
It looks like the necklace has some kind of power.
Jungkook
Ren Xue has already been possessed so she can no longer be saved
Taehyung (Tae)
💭 Why? Is that necklace not just an ordinary instance prop?
Taehyung opened and closed his mouth speechlessly as blood splattered onto his face
In shock he looked over at the two people who were fine just moments ago now lying in a pool of blood
Ren Xue who had already taken a monster-like appearance pulled out her sharp claws and opened her mouth wide looking as if she would bite off Wang Jianming's head any second.
His hands and feet went cold. After being scared stiff for a moment, Taehyung saw Lu Wenjing standing on the side in shock while holding onto her crowbar. He gritted his teeth and rushed over to grab her crowbar
Just as Ren Xue was about to bite Wang Jianming, Taehyung raised the crowbar and smashed it onto Ren Xue's head.
As she converted into a monster, Ren Xue's skull for some reason had become very fragile. With just a hit, her head split open like a watermelon.
Her head and face split into several pieces and blood, brain fluid and skull fragments flowed onto the ground while emitting a strong bloody smell
The headless body collapsed softly onto the ground and no longer moved. The emerald necklace also fell along with the body onto the ground with a 'thud'.
System K29
【Congratulations for killing the monster. You gain 100 experience points and 50 survival points.】
System K29
【Player level has upgraded to level 3】
Taehyung (Tae)
Huff, huff…
Taehyung held onto the crowbar while gasping for air. Hearing the systems announcement, his face went pale and he felt very uncomfortable inside
Ren Xue who was just talking to him earlier had become a monster in an instant and was just killed by him. How could he easily accept something like that……….
Suddenly, Taehyung was pushed down. The back of his head made a hard collision against the ground and for a moment everything went black.
Wang Jianming pulled at his shirt collar while covered in blood and shouted at him: "You killed Xiao Xue! You killed her!!"
Taehyung (Tae)
💭But I did that to save you
The still dizzy Taehyung opened his mouth wanting to explain but Wang Jianming angrily grabbed his neck instantly cutting off his ability to breath.
Tae grabbed Wang Jianming's wrist and struggled desperately but less than a few seconds later, he heard a dull sound and Wang Jianming had fallen to the side.
Taehyung was then pulled up and held in an embrace.
Jungkook
it's okay, it's okay
Jungkook held him in his embrace and gently stroked his hair. In a soft and gentle voice, he repeatedly comforted him.
Taehyung who had just killed Ren Xue who had become a monster and was then almost killed by Wang Jianming was originally trembling in fear
But with Jungkook's soothing, his gradually calmed back down and a bit of colour returned to his face.
Holding onto the corner of Jungkook's shirt, Tae didn't make a sound, but the rims of his eyes were a little red.
Jungkook
You did the right thing. You did it to save him.
The handsome man patted his back and spoke in a very warm and soothing tone, but his eyes were conversely extremely cold, as if darkness emanated from within
Jungkook looked over at Wang Jianming on the ground as if he was looking at a dead person.
After a while, Jungkook gave Taehyung some calming pills allowing Taehyung to calm back down and restore some heat to his cold hands and feet.
When Taehyung finally recovered, he was embarrassed that he was held in Jungkook's embrace and comforted for such a long time.
Taehyung (Tae)
Thank you……
Taehyung coughed and moved out of Jungkook's embrace. He then returned Lu Wenjing the crowbar.
Jungkook shot him a smile and said with curved eyes
Jungkook
I will always welcome you whenever you need to be comforted.
Taehyung's face felt hot but he only took it as Jungkook teasing him and didn't take it seriously.
Tae turned over to Wang Jianming who had fainted on the ground and pondered over what to do about him.
As for Wang Jianming's early act of attempting to kill him, he was naturally a little upset about it since he had returned his kindness with ingratitude
But he had killed Ren Xue so it wasn't like he couldn't understand why Wang Jianming wanted to kill him. If you asked him to leave Wang Jianming behind to die, he was a little reluctant but if they brought him along, he would definitely try to kill him when he wakes up……….
Faced with such a dilemma, Taehyung toyed with the idea of whether or not he should tie Wang Jianming up first and see what his reaction is like when he wakes up
He wanted to ask Jungkook and Lu Wenjing for their opinions but, before he was able to do so, Lu Wenjing suddenly screamed in horror as she looked in front of her with wide eyes and stumbled backwards.
A strange sound came from behind Taehyung. His entire body stiffened and, holding onto the flashlight, he slowly turned around. Ren Xue's headless body slowly got up while mutilated flesh and blood fell out from the openings. From the small remnants of a throat, a strange sound was heard.
It was clearly not the sound that a living human could make but it strangely managed to compose a sentence.
"…….Say, he……he should be called Joshua……okay?"
Jungkook's Diary (Part 8)
Jungkook
That man must die. He dared to try and hurt Taetae.
Jungkook
I'm sorry Taetae. Even if you want to save him, I can't let him live.
Jungkook
If I wasn't holding onto Taetae at that time, I would have already ripped that man to shreds
Jungkook
The only reason why I gave up that idea was because I didn't want to scare Taetae.
Jungkook
With him in my arms, I was able to hold onto my last sense of reason.
Jungkook
…..So, you should hug me more often okay? This way I will not go crazy
