I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Chapter 44): Hunting Urban Legends is a Dangerous Thing



Chapter 44): Hunting Urban Legends is a Dangerous Thing

Yibei never thought that he would take up reading a newspaper again.

The body went missing at night, and two days later, it was found under the pier. The victim supposedly drowned but died with a smile on his face she pondered as she caressed the fake teeth that were perched on her shoulder.

Do you usually read the news? she asked the fake teeth.

Sometimes, the news is hard to decipher. Some people are alive but dead, and some are dead but alive. Paying close attention to news like this reminds me that there is a sense of reality left in the world.

Yibei nodded, having a little understanding of the personalities of her roommates.

The fake teeth are pessimistic, the eyeballs are filled with a fiery rage, the wig is cunning, the nightgown is introverted and shy, and the coat is just stupid.

So, should I head over to, lets see, Linjiang Avenue? she wondered. How can I guarantee that itll appear?

The night is long! Itll definitely appear tonight, the eyeballs bounced.

Something flashed in Yibeis eyes. From the eyeballs words, she guessed that on some nights, urban legends would become more active. Could the girl in his dream be referring to this?

Whats so special about tonight? Yibei asked.

Urban legends become stronger over the next few nights. How did you think I had the power to launch myself at you? The eyeballs bounced back.

Yibei quickly went upstairs to her room. She cant hunt urban legends while naked. She still had an image to maintain.

All the apparitions in the room were secretly relieved that she was going to be out for a while. However

Ah!

They could see her running straight to the kitchen as she poured several buckets of water on herself, and steam would violently surge from her petite body.

She stood in the kitchen, her long, pink hair drenched in water and sticking to her back. Wisps of steam wafted from her hair, and her face was flushed red.

Whats going on with her?

Is she going crazy? I think we should run.

The wig noticed her shorts that were burnt down to a few rags and said, I think it might be that

She originally wanted to put random articles of clothing on her, but only then did she realise the biological difference between male and female bodies.

And because of these differences, the sensitivity of some parts wasnt exactly the same.

As the shirt she wore brushed across her chest, a strong sense of shame erupted in her heart, and she accidentally set her clothes ablaze.

As she thought about it, the hunger, which she had tried so hard to suppress, resurfaced again. Her stomach folded inward, and she could feel her stomach acid bubble.

Yibei swallowed hard as she eyed the apparitions that stalked her living room.

Should I just eat them?

O G-great Witch! Please calm down; dont m-make decisions youll regret!

Y-yes! We can t-talk it out!

Just let her eat me.

Shut up!

Can you get me something to wear that wont burn?

The figures looked at each other before their gazes fell on the coat that was playing with its sleeves in the corner.

That! the figures yelled in unison.

The night was dark.

It started to rain at some point; you couldnt tell where the raindrops were coming from.

In the dead of night, on an avenue, a man in a delivery uniform was running wildly.

His shoes were kicked off at an unknown time.

Even if the raised stones on the road scratched at his skin, even if the muddy water stung at his wound

He had no intention of stopping.

He didnt want to stop.

Because there is a monster chasing after him!

Although he didnt see the monster, he could feel it.

It prowled after him; it seemed to be one with the shadows.

It pressed forward with a coldness that shook him; its malice shook his soul to its core.

The terrifying oppression washed over him, and he could suffocate from its presence alone.

He yelled for help, but nobody responded.

The street lamps shone dimly, and the thick fog lingered on the endless street.

The man began to blame himself for not listening to his friends advice.

Dont go out delivering orders at night! Its not worth risking your life!

He chuckled dryly at the thought but gasped heavily as he gradually approached his physical limit.

Every time he inhaled, a strong putrid stench would flood his nostrils like a thousand rotten fish that swam along his nasal cavity.

Sharp scales and sharp bones crushed his lungs, dripping with blood.

The unbearable discomfort caused the man to cough violently, and every time he coughed, he would cough up muddied river water mixed with scales and plant debris.

His vision began to blur.

The street lamps flickered intermittently; they distorted and morphed as if some strange force was manipulating them.

Cold, terrified, exhausted

He couldnt hold on anymore, and his body fell backwards.

However, the violent impact never came.

The waterlogged road was pitch black, and the man fell on his own shadow like a cushion.

The shadow under him seemed alive, and a pale hand protruded from the shadow. The hands were divided into countless branches of new hands, which covered his eyes, mouth, and nose.

The hands pulled him under, and he sank to the ground with a plop.

As if he were falling into a pool, water rushed into his nostrils.

Stone, sand, and scum broke into his respiratory tract in an instant, and he felt more suffocated than drowning. He coughed violently once again, and countless tiny pieces of debris were forced out of his mouth and nose.

As if he were hallucinating, he heard an explosion, followed by a piercing scream that echoed in his ears.

Hiss!

It was like a hiss that came from a bird.

W-what?

Hehehe! It is I, your saviour. I am the incarnation of justice, born in the dark. I walk under the night, purging all filth. With my Sword of Light, accompanied by a demon-slaying system, I am the Unstoppable Red Scarf, and I

Y-youre too noisy, the man forced out before he passed out.

Ah Gu Qianqian sighed as she pouted. It seems like she needs to rehearse her slogan more.

[Completed Daily Mission: Do Good Deeds! (1/1). You have received 10 points.]

10 points! One more prize draw! she thought excitedly. However, a disgusting smell of dead fish rushed into her nostrils.

Looking in the direction of the stench, the road ahead was shrouded in a thick fog. Strange howling could be faintly heard, and the asphalt road seemed to boil with ripples that surged violently. In an instant, the ripples reached her feet.

And she, too, sank under the floor without a trace.

In the distance, a figure wearing a large red and white coat crouched in the corner, and the bushes concealed her petite self well.

Damn it, the girl cursed. Hunting urban legends is scary.
