UNLUCKY
Ch.279 - Possibilities Worrying
Tom walked alone in a village far from the city. Kimber Village is a recently discovered victim who died with the same injuries as other victims of the devil when it was discovered.
Previously, the Devil would settle in a village and get five victims, then move again to another village. Kimber Village is only one victim, so there will still be four more terrible events that will happen.
Naturally, if Tom feels insulted by the Devil blatantly. After Felix killed 21 Devils, it was supposed to be a warning and a threat but it did not make the Devil stop what he was doing.
This time the pattern is no longer a hypnotic method, it is not yet clear what pattern it uses this time. The fact is that the devil chooses perpetrators and victims who come home late at night. Such was the police investigation that had just been shared on the news. The perpetrator and victim were still wearing office clothes with an office bag and the student who came home late at night, all known to have just arrived from the city.
Felix, the Three Twins and Mertie try to guard and search around the station or transport terminal from town to village but since it seems the devil has guessed that there will be them, nothing strange happens. Even the demonic aura or evil aura was not found although there was certainly a bad aura but usually it was just an aura that had long been stuck somewhere.
There is only one possibility: a trip back home. So Tom walked down the street to the village. But after police reported the facts of the investigation, the Ministry of Manpower and the Ministry of Education Yardley announced that the office and school return hours for the next two weeks were 17.00 pm. For the extension of the home clock restrictions it is still uncertain whether it will be extended or only up to two weeks. It is currently in the monitoring stage whether it is useful or not.
Felix thought it would allow them to calmly study for the final preparations but they didn't. Tom still insisted on going to investigate other facts because only office workers and students were perpetrators or victims in remote villages.
"Grandma, why come home so late at night?" tom asked in shock to see a Grandma come walking in the dark and finally now under the same street lamp as Tom.
"It's only 9pm, why do you say it's late?!" said the Grandma.
"This is what I'm afraid of. Not everyone who came home that night was an office worker or a student but it could be this Grandma as well.." said Tom in a very upset heart.
"Young man?" Grandma was confused as to why Tom was just silent.
"Iy .. yeah?" Tom just answered.
"You're not the guy here, are you? Grandma never saw you .." said the grandmother.
"I ... I .. I'm running away from home!" tom said long looking for an excuse.
"Hem .. is this your first time?" ask the Grandma.
Tom simply replied with a nod.
"That means there's still four left over then" Grandma said.
"meaning?" ask Tom.
"My son, five times ran away from home. After that, then grow up. .. All children will definitely go through that period before becoming adults." replied Grandma.
"Are you so? maybe not applicable to us who are orphanage children huh? I never thought at all to run away from home ... even though I thought where to go?" tom said in a laughing heart.
"Your name is who's young?" ask Grandma.
"Tom."
"I should have said that. Grandma apparently knew that but stayed out these nights?!" tom said emotion.
"Grandmother just got out of town delivering side dishes to ...."
"For that grown-up grandmother's son? why didn't you tell her to drive Grandma home then? anyway .... why bring him side dishes? in the city there are a lot of side dishes to buy, grandma doesn't have to bother" Tom interjected.
"He was busy working, grandma could not bother him to bother dropping off everything, after all grandma is not a child! can go home alone ..." said the Grandmother who started walking towards the village gate, "That which the mother bought and made was different." he continued after hearing Tom's footsteps following him from behind, "What did you bring in that box? usually, children who run away will not bring goods and just immediately run away ...."
The box had just been touched by the Grandma and it immediately opened, revealing the face of the Devil that resembled a snake, black with red eyes. Tom threw the box in shock but immediately picked it up before the grandmother turned around.
"What's wrong?" ask Grandma.
"I tripped over a rock." replied Tom cleaning his pants, "Is Grandma's house still far away?" Tom calmed himself down when he saw a large figure with the same face emerging from the box was in the middle of a dark rice field right next to the scarecrow.
"Not far from it.. Patience!" said Grandma walking very casually making Tom a cold scold.
"Why did my grandmother suddenly stop?" ask Tom in shock.
"It's the victim's house and that's the perpetrator's house, the incident that just happened was like a dream only ... surely this is because there are ghosts or something.." said Grandma pointing at the two houses facing each other.
"Come on, let's go home, Grandma!" tom said he had no interest in hearing the demon near there.
"How could a cowardly child like you run away from home?!" Grandma's teasing Tom.
Tom continued to be near the grandmother and prepared to pull out his weapon whenever the Devil approached. It's just that Tom wasn't sure he could fight the Devil because of his red eyes. Banks says that demonic-power is ranked by the color of her eyes. Orange means the highest level of Devils like Efrain, Red means middle level Devil, Yellow means lower level.
To defeat the lower level Devils alone must play with the roar that is Tan, Teo and Tom cooperate against one Devil, it also takes a long time, draining energy and of course will get injured. The strength of a lower-level Devil alone was already 100x that of an ordinary human. Especially for a mid-level Devil, Tom was certainly not sure he could win but the grandmother was relaxed once walking frustrated Tom.
"Grandmothers live alone?" tom asked after seeing Grandma open the door of the house where the light died.
"My married son couldn't have lived here .." Grandma turned on the light after entering the house.
"How many times has Grandma been to town?" ask Tom.
"Two times a month. Buy monthly necessities and bring side dishes." replied Grandma.
"Grandmother dared to take me to this grandmother's house whose identity is unknown. What if I'm a bad guy? is Grandma not afraid at all?" said Tom.
"Children like you, grandma can defeat in one strike. Don't underestimate your parents!" said the Grandma.
