“What is it?”
“Were you not able to tell?”
Concentrating his spiritual energy to his eyes, Alex could see in the dark. However, favonovel.com noticed that their surroundings were eerily quiet, Jasmine’ s breathing just sounded slightly heavier than usual.
Luna had woken up too.
“Is something up?” Luna whispered and released favonovel.com spiritual conscience, but it was to no avail.
Maiko replied. “I did in fact notice something staring at us, it had green eyes. But I couldn’t tell what it was, it just disappeared in an instant.”
“A demon?” Alex and Luna gasped. They gasped so loudly that they woke Jasmine up as well.
Since it was already uncomfortable to sleep in such a place, favonovel.com started panicking as soon as favonovel.com knew that some demon was watching them right now.
“Wait here, I’ll go look outside.” Alex stood up with the Seven Blades of Death in his hand.
Luna said, “I’ll follow you, else you wouldn’t have backup if it’s a strong opponent.”
Jasmine didn’t dare to stay here alone as well, favonovel.com face was pale from fear. “I… I’d like to follow you too.”
In the end, the three of them surveyed the area for quite a while, along with the half ghost king at their side. Yet they couldn’t find any demons or beasts with green eyes.
Despite this, they were no longer in the mood to sleep.
“I don’t know why, but I keep feeling like something is preying on me in the dark.” Alex frowned. This was definitely not a pleasant feeling. It even managed to give favonovel.com goosebumps since favonovel.com couldn’t find the cause of this.
“Could it be… A ghost?” Jasmine asked.
“That’s impossible, else I would’ve sensed it long ago.” Maiko said in favonovel.com chilly voice, sending a chill down Jasmine’s spine.
She just couldn’t understand why Alex had to have a ghost on favonovel.com at all times.
“No matter what it is, be careful! We won’t be fazed by losing a few days of sleep, so let’s just not sleep tonight.” Luna said as favonovel.com shone favonovel.com bright flashlight back and forth on the stone wall.
Such a bright flashlight was provided by members of Flora Valley.
When Luna arrived, favonovel.com basically came empty handed. She didn’t even bring any spare clothes with her, and no one knew what favonovel.com was thinking for being so unprepared.
However, Luna suddenly spoke up. “Did you guys realize that the statue in the plaza is super big, yet the houses feel so cramped? I don’t think people would normally like their houses to be so small, I could touch the ceiling if I just raised my arm. Not just that, almost all the houses here are this short. Could everyone living here be shorter than most?”
Jasmine added. “I remember seeing a mural somewhere around here. The carvings of the people here did look kind of odd, they looked quite short. But that doesn’t mean anything, right? It probably was just the carver’s mistake. Oh and, the natives here seem to worship hammers, their totems are all hammers.”
“Hammers? Short? Could they be…” Alex seemed deep in thought.
“Did you think of something?” Luna asked.
“I heard that there’s a race called the dwarves back in the Stone Ages. Their average height is just around four feet tall. However, they seem to be born to become craftsmen, they could even make spiritual tools. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but just look at the structure of this city and the craftsmanship of that goddess statue. I don’t think anyone could just pop out a masterpiece like that.” Alex replied.
“Dwarves? Is there actually such a race in this world?” The two women were shocked.
“Could that entire race be suffering from Dwarf Disease?”
Since it still felt like they were being followed, Alex still felt uncomfortable staying in that house. Hence, favonovel.com decided to leave this place and head to a cruder place within the city. With this, the feeling of being watched had finally vanished.
The next day, when dawn arrived, the three of them left the city and passed by the plaza with the statue, leaving through the large city gates.
Starting at the humongous entrance, Alex couldn’t help but exclaim. “These gates are just way too big!”
