Cherreads

Chapter 15 - Meeting a New Entity.

You wouldn't believe what I'm seeing. All six of them were taking it all out on their killer. 

Punch here. Punch there. Kick here. Kick there.

It's totally chaotic. 

And as they did that. My system was matching their every move with a chime.

They're my point farmers! Oh yeah! 

"Go girls! Keep going!" I was cheering them on, but maybe my cheer got them too high, that Paula, gouge the demon's eye out... "Bleergh!" 

I turned around and vomited. 

They're not holding back. Not even once. Even the demure Sharon's ghost was not so demure at all.

Yeah, she wasn't laughing like a maniac, like how Paula was. But she was doing her own thing.

Pulling out the demon's tongue. That got me to puke again. Thank you. 

I kinda feel bad, looking at the demon. Kinda... But I tossed that thought away, even batter it out off my braincells. 

Goodbye thoughts!

I thought we had it good. That they're finally able to get revenge themselves. But...it wasn't that easy. 

The demon growled and pushed them back with just the shockwave coming from his roar.

He wasn't happy. Who would be?

He looked like a meat got stucked in a meat grinder mid grind.

Disgusting. Totally. 

Everyone, looked at him with serious faces now. Paula even stopped laughing. 

[WARNING! SOULS HAS BEEN DAMAGED. 50% DAMAGE WOULD TURN THEM INTO VENGEFUL SPIRITS.]

Crap. Another issue. I can't let them get hurt now. 

The demon, pulled the rosary away from its neck forcefully. Leaving marks around it. 

"YOU'VE MADE A JOKE OUT OF ME! TIME FOR YOU ALL TO REMEMBER THAT DAY, I TOOK YOUR LIVES AWAY!" 

The demon let out dark, ominous energy from its body. And it was raging towards the ghosts. 

The dark fog, enveloped around them, and instantly making them scream.

In agony....

Each one of them were reliving the moment they died. Over...and over again. 

"Cheap tricks! You monster!" I lunged at it without even thinking. 

I've fertilized the weeds quites enough and it's time for me to take action.

"System, open shop. Suggest best item to eliminate the demon!" I slammed my body at it, taking him down with towards the ground. 

And I regretted it. 

The demon smelled like rotten flesh and it was unbearable.

"Yuck! Disgusting shit!" I stood up covering my nose. 

My actions made it furious. Totally furious. 

"You human! How dare you insult me!" He growled again, and countered. 

He stood up and jumped on me. Drooling. And it's dropping on my face. Unlike the blood from Paula's pranks... 

This one was real... Real saliva. Slimy at that.

"Tang ina. You're so gross!" I sounded like a woman that got caught up with something so disgusting.

Because I am.

And screaming wasn't helping. It only made me look even more pathetic.

[OPENING SHOP. ITEMS DISPLAYED]

[DAGGER OF EXECUTION: 100 POINTS]

"What kind of dagger is worth 100 points. Don't ever give me something with one time use!" I grunted. 

[DAGGER IS....UPGRADABLE. LEVELS UP WITH THE USER]

Well that's OP. A weapon that levels up with the user is badass!

But....

[TOTAL POINTS: 99]

WHAAAAAAT? PISTEEEE! 

I need one point. One point.

I tried punching the demon myself. But it wasn't working. No chimes. 

Unlike when the women did it. 

"Sharoooooon! Paulaaaaaaa! Yaaaannnnaaaaa! Help!" 

I was blocking its face away from me. It was trying to bite or to feast on me. Which one works best for it.

But the women are unresponsive. They're still screaming. Still in agony. 

[SOULS' ESSENCE ARE DISSIPATING.]

[WARNING. TOTAL DISSIPATION WOULD FAIL THE TASK.]

The system kept repeating its warning. That's when my eyes gaze towards my right where a tiny entity was looking at us. 

Not interfering. No plans at all. But eyeing on the scattered beads of the rosary on the ground. 

Oh! Oh! 

"Duwende! Hey! Hey... Want those beads?"

[COMMUNICATION SKILL LEVELED UP!]

[ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED. THE SMALL ONE'S COMPANION]

Companion? What does it.....

[GAINED +10 POINTS]

"You talking to me?" The small voice was barely audible..

"Yes! Please... Gather the beads. And give it to me." I was panting now. 

The demon was strong. 

But somehow I'm holding on. On....his mouth. It was so slimy. So, disgusting that my fingers were used to stop his mouth from munching me.

"What's it for me?" The little voice was getting closer. 

It was walking towards me. No... It was hopping.

"Argh... We'll talk about that after I'm done eliminating this guy!" I pushed the demon away and managed to back away a bit. 

Crawling away from where it was. And, good Lord. He pulled my feet towards him. Dragging me away from the ghosts.

The duwende was picking up the beads, humming. As he picked it up, I saw how one bead disappeared into nothingness. 

Then followed, me, as I was dragged away. Skipping as it goes. 

"Ow..ow...ow! Can't you be gentler?" My face was hitting the roots, the rocks, everything that was on the way. And then the demon stopped. 

At the location where every body was buried. 

"I'm had enough of your snide remarks human!" The demon threw me towards the middle of a small clearing.

I hit the ground with a loud thud. I could feel my ribs cracking.

"Putaaaa! That hurts a lot!" I complained. Loudly.

Then the duwende was able to catch up. Even in its tiny steps. 

"Here they are." It exclaimed, quite too lively for the situation I'm in.

"Don't interfere!" The demon snarled towards the duwende.

But the little one was even listening to it. And just walked towards me dropping the beads. 

I picked them up and tried to arranged them. 

[HOLY ROSARY REPAIR AVAILABLE: 5 POINTS]

This system....this is a great scammer. Knowing I've got a bit of extra, and just wanted me to use it! 

Damn it!
