Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Everyone's mind was clouded heavily as they stared at the doors desperately.

Blow them away!

~Bang. Bang. Bang~

The thundering bullets flew out from their weapons as if it were a war zone.

And the sparks and flashed from all the firing seemed to illuminate the dimly lit room from time to time.

Destroy. Destroy. Destroy. Destroy!

They didn't dare to slow down, as they fired uncontrollably at the only thing now standing between them and freedom.

And after firing for what seemed like an eternity, they suddenly froze, looked at the doors and almost burst out into tears.

Dammit!

How did they forget that these doors were reinforced and sturdier than ordinary ones?

The doors and even the latches were made for keeping the enemy out.

They didn't even do any major damage to the doors after all that firing.

One could only find scratches or marks here and there instead.

F***!

Dread grew within their chests as everyone tried their best to pry the doors open.

No matter how sound and bold one was, ending up in such a situation, trapped in a room with an unknown thing that they didn't know how to kill, would inevitably make terror bloom in their hearts as time passed by.

And without a doubt, even the guards who felt courageous before were shaken to their core with the turn of events.

Their breathing grew hoarse as they raised their legs and kicked or slammed the doors with a crazed look in their eyes.

"Open! Open! Why won't you open for me?!"

~Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Tensions were high, and their veins were already bulging out in desperation.

But how could they have known that this was just the beginning of a fun night?

~BRRRMMMMMM!

The chandeliers began shaking greatly, and the couches began floating and spinning around the room as a crazy gust of wind fumed in, creating a storm within the hall.

Everyone's body went numb with shock, they saw the scene before them.

Too strong!

The strong winds lifted several people and spun them around as if they were rolling around in the sinking Titanic, with many forcefully hitting themselves against the walls in agony.

~Bam! Bam! Bam!

Some people already saw stars from all the hits to their heads and bodies.

"Uggh...."

The loud chiming chandeliers and exclamations of other panic-filled people quickly covered up the moans of many.

But just when they thought that they would forever end up getting bashed and thrown around all night in this tornado, hurricane winds, the strong gust of wind suddenly stopped. And at this moment, everything, including everyone floating, fell hard on the ground mercilessly in one loud bang.

~Bam.

The room was now in a mess. But the real point of focus was that everyone's heart now had a higher degree of fear installed in them.

Beautiful.

It smelled so good that the little girl couldn't help taking a big whiff and moaning in ecstasy.

Heh. Want to run? Then think again!

.

Every one, though in a state of disarray, was still focused on the little girl.

Those closer moved with their butts as fast as they could, trying to stay as far away from her as possible.

Wei Gia felt the pressure on his throat when staring at the thing that looked like his daughter.

Oh, dear. He wanted to throw up and convulse in both fear and repulsion.

"You... What do you want from us?" Wei Gia asked with a shivering tone. He had fought against it, hoping to calm his knotted belly. But the fear from within the room seemed too courageous. He could feel the bottomless quivering in his spine. And for the first time, he realized that his voice could go up a note as well. Luckily, because of the elephant in the room, no one seemed to realize his strangeness and only gazed upon him in admiration instead.

They were all shaken down to their bones, but Wei Gia was courageous enough to talk to the thing even after all that had happened.

In truth, Wei Gia was just as shaken as they were.

And when the thing abruptly turned its face at him, he felt like he was about to collapse.

But with everyone staring at him with such hopeful and expectant eyes, he dared not fail them and could only swallow his quake feeling and pent-up vomit for some other time.

Who made him the current head of the household?

...

The thing saw Wei Gia's struggling expression and chuckled: "For what I want to do, I'm sure you already have a guess in your heart. Oops... You all are going to die anyway. So why care about what I will do with you all after your deaths?" The thing said before smiling from ear to ear, as her lips extending right to the back of her head

And the moment she spoke, she didn't even give them time to readjust themselves before calmly lifting her hands and closing her eyes calmly.

p Of course, everyone's concern wasn't the actions... but what they were seeing before them.

The thing's teeth started growing and elongating into a spiky saw-like pattern that formed a line all across her face.

And when she opened her eyes again, they were a deep shade of bluish-purple instead.

But maybe, the most shocking thing was that during this time, the massive image of the moon seemed to have a deeper bluish color with purplish highlights too.

Even if they were dumb and slow-witted, they now realized that what they were facing was definitely something out of this world!

So instantly, they pointed their weapons at it without hesitation.

At first, they avoided shooting it because it looked exactly like the little miss... You know, without the teeth, the face, the... Well, the body still looked like that of the little miss, excluding the face.

So they were patient about it, trying to flee to safety first and then think about it all.

But now that they were truly cornered and backed up, forget it.

This thing is going down!

.

Instantly, time seemed frozen in place as everyone began raising their weapons.

And at the moment, the little girl was watching everything in slow motion, with a curved smile across her face.

Well, now... It looked like it was finally time for the feast to begin.

She had long marked her favorites in this room, so she decided to save them for last.

After all, the more their souls feared and ached like squealing hounds, the more blissful the meal.

But because of those blasted angels, it had to be done before the heavenly hour... Lest they find out her deeds.

Nonetheless, since she liked saving the best for last, then she would undoubtedly enjoy the closest to the little girl the last.

Thinking like that, the thing's eyes curved upwards.

~Swish!

What???!

Old Gia and several others looked around in blind horror while trying to suppress the shivers within them.

It vanished. It vanished!

Instantly, their scalps tingled.

Where was it? Where was it?

The dimly dark room, the weird sounds of drumming on the walls, and the impending fear of the unknown lurking in the dark, was enough to make one have a heart attack, talk less of losing their wits at a time like this... Especially the children who grabbed the adults with their cold, clammy hands.

It's been a long time since they, the Gia grandsons, had cried.

Today, they seemed to be able to shed buckets, with some even releasing the dragons of pee too.

But they dared not cry out loud for fear that whatever was within the dark would get them.

They... They wanted to go home.

They had never been so traumatized and frightened in their entire lives!

And just when everyone was freaking out of their wits, they heard a loud cry coming from above.

~Ahhhhhh!

Everyone looked upwards, and Butler Feng also flashed a torch there too.

It was on the ceiling! It was on the ceiling!

Yes. They found it.

But it was just that the image they saw was enough to send them into cardiac arrest.

They watched as the thing stood upside down on the ceiling, and in one single bite, it bit off a guard's entire head after its mouth expanded into 10 times its regular size.

Blood smeared its mouth, leaving the most horrid image to them.

~Crunch. Crunch. Crunch.

In just 3 more bites, the entire human had been swallowed.

~Plugh.

She burped out the person's clothes and every other indigestible item.

Tonight, she could eat both flesh and soul.

Everyone watched her crunch the bones, not even daring to breathe, speak or call its attention to them.

The amount of fear wired in their bodies made their eyes eclipse and roll to the back of their heads.

But little did they know that this was just the beginning.

Tonight, the blood bath began.

"Run! Run! Pry open the doors again!"

"No! No! Save me! It's got my leg!"

"Shoot! Shoot! Waste the bullets on it!"

"Dammit! Where is a missile when you need one?"

"Help! Help! Save me!"

~Bang Bang. Bang Bang. Bang.
