Dark aura spilled from the creature in front of her, and this blocked all of her source of light gradually. A wide grin appeared on the creature"s face as he mixed with the darkness.
Her entire surrounding darkened, and there was nothing visible to Soohyun"s eyes other than the black surrounding around her.
Her senses had become sharper, and she became more vigilant. She recalled about all the trainings Minhyun and Jihoon had given her whilst she remained blindfolded.
The creature could be attacking any of her sides, and Soohyun remembered Minhyun"s words on how this process feeds on one"s fears. She could not let herself panic or get frightened.
Focusing on her surroundings, Soohyun tried to sense from which side will that creature attack her. She could see what the creature was trying to do to.
The Creature was trying to make her nervous, and when she would be losing her focus, it will be making a move upon her. Nonetheless, Soohyun was not willing to let that happen.
"Right," She mumbled when she felt a sudden movement in her right.
Her senses felt extremely heightened; It was more than the time she was training. Soohyun could not guess about the catalyst behind it. Nevertheless, she did not complain at that moment.
She was about to grip the hand that was about to come to her from her right side. However, before she could do that, Soohyun felt that presence disappear.
That is when Soohyun heard loud sounds of laughter all around her, and she looked around, trying to figure out where that sound came from. However, there did not seem to be any specific place the sound came out from.
"You might have been able to successfully avoid that, Lee Soohyun, but do not expect yourself to be this lucky this time around. You will be soon destroyed," The voice c.o.c.kily vocalised, "After all, you are blind and have no chance of winning against me, someone who has sights and is controlling everything."
Feeling a sudden presence behind her, Soohyun acted upon her reflex and turned back within less than a second. Then, raising her hand and folding it into a fist, she connected it with the stomach in front of her.
That presence disappeared again, and letting out a chuckle, she said, "I beg to differ. I think that I can fight against you."
"Let"s see how much longer that att.i.tude lasts," The Creature stated— his voice sounding extremely similar to Minhyun.
Soohyun had an inkling on how the Creature was trying to shake her up by using Minhyun"s voice. Nonetheless, it had almost no effect on Soohyun. In her opinion, Minhyun"s voice was much warmer.
"Sure," Soohyun voiced out, "Although this is completely unfair against me, I am quite adamant on—"
Before Soohyun could continue, she felt someone trying to target her from the top of her head, and a small smirk formed upon her face. She had an inkling that the creature was trying to distract het by holding a conversation with her.
She instantly jumped away from that place, and the Creature vanished into thin air again. Before she could let out a breath properly, she found an attack coming from her left, then right, and from the front next.
Luckily enough, Soohyun responded fast enough to all of these, and maybe because this was not real that she was not losing her breath after all this.
"No matter how many times you avoid me, Lee Soohyun, you know that you are weak and useless. It would have been better if you were just useless. However, you are a burden that is dragging everyone low," The Creature said.
"So? How does that bother you?" Soohyun questioned as she avoided the attacks that came for her.
The speed of the attacks were increasing, and there were few she was almost about to get attacked in. Nonetheless, it was as if along with the attacks, her sensing abilities were heightening. Although she found her reflexes surprising, she felt grateful towards it.
"It does not bother me. However, you are a bother to everyone. I am creature that lives inside everyone"s head, and I can easily see how all of them—"
"Are tired of me? How would you expect me to believe those words of yours? Do not take me to be some fool," Soohyun said as a scoff left her mouth.
"You are basically designed to fool me and get me to give up; You are utterly foolish to believe that I would be falling into those traps of yours," Soohyun stated as she gripped the Creature"s hand.
She flipped the Creature over her shoulder, and a loud sound was heard as its body touched the surface beneath her leg. Raising her leg, she placed it on the Creature"s chest, so that he would be unable to move away from there.
Then, her eyes looked towards the front. The black surrounding around her was starting to show glitches of different colours. Soohyun had no idea on why that was happening.
Staring down, she realised that the Creature beneath her foot was starting to glitch, and Soohyun had no idea on what to do in that instant. At that moment, the creature beneath her foot disappeared into thin air as he continued to glitch.
Soohyun"s leg touched the hard surface beneath it when she felt a sharp pain go through her forehead, and a wince left her mouth.
"This is another test; You will be able to handle this," Soohyun mumbled to herself.
The sharp pain permeated through her entire body, and she sucked in a deep breath. It felt as if her chest was run over by something heavy, and she found herself getting breathless.
Another wave of pain went through her head, and a loud groan left her mouth. She found herself crouching down, and unwillingly, a loud growl left her mouth. She could feel herself changing into something as her consciousness was slipping away.
However, she had no idea on what that was.
