Chapter 465: Confusion
” Haa, I wonder just how did that Caleb guy went crazy to the point of doing such things, he even killed all the kids, but before that why is this village situated in the territory of the 3rd Zone demons? Even though there is no one here now, why isn’t any demon still coming here? ”
Jayden mumbled to himself and many questions rose in his mind, but it would not be easy to find the answers to all those questions.
He looked around in the house but didn’t see anything else so he walked out of the broken house and looked through all the houses one by one.
He saw similar scenes in many of them, Caleb had slaughtered the entire village, many skeletons were present in the rooms, many were lying broken on the streets and some were scattered away from the houses.
After a few minutes, Jayden finally came across Caleb’s house, which was in a similar condition as the other ones, but it was broken in many places as if someone tried to take out their anger on it.
Like others the door was open, so Jayden directly stepped inside and soon he saw the skeletons of all the maids and servants who had at some point worked in this house, he had seen the same thing in his nightmare too while Caleb’s brother was running away from there.
Jayden walked further inside the house and soon he saw the skeleton of the woman, who was probably Caleb’s wife, lying in the room the condition of her skeleton was relatively better, showing that Caleb probably didn’t come back after killing his brother or maybe he regained a little of his senses, so he stopped himself from tormenting his wife any more.
He was standing outside the room, there were several photos hanging on the wall, a few of them were broken, removing the dust Jayden saw Caleb’s family, they all looked quite happy in it and it seemed the older brother had always been sick.
After glancing around the room, he walked over the entire house but didn’t find anything, though the old memories resurfaced when he saw the familiar places he had seen in his nightmare.
” Now that I’m actually here, it feels like I am in that nightmare again, I could still remember how Caleb was eating that woman when I walked down from the 1st floor. ”
Jayden mumbled and walked out of the house, it was no longer bothering him it was all because of the increase in his mental strength.
” Do you find your mouth watering? You can tell me, after all, you are the only person I could talk to so your secret would stay hidden perfectly with me. ” Anna spoke, her tone mischievous.
” Well if you insist then I can share my secret but be sure not to tell anyone about it. ” Jayden said in a serious tone, his expression was solemn.
” Okay tell me, it’s our little secret. ” Anna whispered, then Jayden began to speak in a low tone:
” To be honest, right now I am really craving a piece of a beautiful old vampire, oof just thinking about it makes my mouth watery, but I wonder where I could find one, Anna do you know anyone who fits my description? ”
“…”
Anna hadn’t expected something like this so she couldn’t reply to him with any thing, after a few seconds she just sighed and fell silent.
” I don’t think I could find any kind of clue in the village maybe we can go and out and see that. ” Jayden spoke and looked at Rakshasa who still wasn’t showing any reaction.
After that Jayden walked out of the house and began to walk towards the the gate of the village, he saw the street that was filled with various skeletons that belonged to people of different ages, it was where Caleb had killed so many people while he was chasing his brother.
‘ But why are they living in between so many demons? ‘ Jayden thought as he looked around and walked forward.
” Maybe to stay away from something or someone in the kingdom? ” Anna said, Jayden nodded but didn’t comment on that.
After walking for a few minutes, he was able to reach the gate of the village, when he arrived outside he saw the familiar tree which still had a skeleton attached to it.
” Isn’t that Caleb’s brother, yo bro how are you doing? ” Walking closer to the skeleton, Jayden shook hands with it and asked in a friendly tone, but it seemed this person was in a bad mood he didn’t reply even though Jayden took the initiative to talk.
” Bruh it’s not good to have so much ego, look how you ended with this ego of yours. ” Jayden said pulling his hand back and shaking his head.
The skeleton only had one hand while the other was pinning it to the tree going directly through his body, Jayden patted the skeleton’s shoulder and then took a step back as he glanced at the tree.
” It looks exactly like I have seen it, just like in the nightmare and the test, how is this tree connected to this all? ”
Jayden mumbled and stared at the tree intently, he walked around it and just as he reached behind its back he saw some engraving made on its surface that was still vaguely visible.
Removing the dust from it Jayden began to observe them carefully, he started from the left and saw that there were only diagrams made on it and nothing was written.
” This first diagram, doesn’t it look like the Blind Dane Demon? ”
He mumbled and became more sure after observing it for a few more seconds, and then he glanced at the next figures, from the drawing it looked like someone was depicting the evolutions of the Blind Dane demon.
The first stage was just as he remembered but then it kept changing, many changes happened to its offspring’s bodies over the time, many generations have passed but someone was actually keeping a constant eye on it.
At the end of it, there were several drawings that were created showing the various paths of evolutions the Blind Dane Demon’s next generations took, in one of those end drawings Jayden could see that it quite resembled the Armored demon that he had killed before, and aside from it, there were several other demons who took different paths of evolutions.
” Why would anyone do this kind of thing? ” Anna spoke after seeing the drawings.
” There are various possibilities, but the most plausible are if the Blind Dane demon itself wanted to keep check of its family tree but that has a low chance.
And another could be that someone with a grudge against it is keeping an eye over it, but what grudge could it be that it was carried even after so many generations, and how is it related to this Caleb or this entire village being here? ”
The more he learned about it all the more confused he became but then pieces began to fill in as he looked at the Rakshasa.
