Terrified and disoriented, everyone took several steps back, wishing to cut themselves from the shadowy creatures that followed them. 

Words could not explain their shock. Even Bassona's group was broken by the scene.

Son of a b**ch!

Just how many creatures are lurking in the dark without them knowing? 

When standing still, the creepy veins would growl and scratch away at the surface, wanting to have a pose of them.

Wiggins slowly moved back and tilted his left to the side. Look! The creature also did the same, although its expression showed hate!

Why was it controlled by a weak mortal?!

Graaaawwwwww!~

It twitched and struggled to gain control while sending its overly long snakish tongue to the surface. 

It was speaking, but in a broken tongue like a Tasmanian devil. However, no matter how slow Wiggins was he knew it was cursing him.

Hey! He didn't ask to be born a mortal, okay? This was not his doing! Besides, do you think he's happy knowing such a creature was attached to him? Augh~

Sure enough, the tales of monsters hiding under a bed to scare children were true. Only, the monster was their shadow! Why can it be like this? 

Wiggins felt the information dumped on him was too much. It only resolved his determination to learn from these strange academy members after they successfully left this place. 

Berry and the others also thought the same. 

Thinking about it, they realized their powerful country didn't have anly forces that could stop such threats.

·ƈθm If they truly existed, they should've reached out to Elric during this period he lost his daughter.

Yet, only these people from the East appeared. Already, Berry and the many military personnel were thinking of creating a new Monster sector after this. 

Yes! It was the only way they would be at peace!

.

Everyone's shadow looked so heinous, with peeling skins, crooked fingers as long as twigs, rotting fluid oozing from their bodies, hunched backs, and disproportionate body parts, some with left legs as big as pillows, while the right as thin as a pinky finger.

Everyone's shadow counterpart looked as hideous and vomit-inducing as the many creatures they saw outside. 

However, Dorian's shadow was so clean and far better looking than humans in the world.

Too handsome!

They dared say it looked like a superstar. 

It wore white, which was a deep contrast to Dorian's bluish-black attire. 

The only way they could probably tell it was a shadow, was its eyes which were an unnatural hue of yellow.

Hell! 

If not for this, they might have thought he was the good Dorian trapped in there, while the Dorian with them was the bad one. 

(-_-)

Don't blame them for thinking so. Dorian was naturally a cold person, but at least, his shadow came off as a lazy, celebrity-type of figure that didn't mind talking a bit more.

What was strange was how the other shadows feared it, not daring to cause a commotion before Dorian's shadow. 

You have to know that whenever they stood still, apart from cursing at them, their shadows also fought against each other, like barbarians.

It's like they just loved chaos, and couldn't sit still. They acted as though someone had thrown ants in their pants. Yet, they immediately became obedient when close to Dorian's shadow.

It was the oddest thing to watch.

One accidentally fell close to Dorian's shadow and began groveling on the ground and pleading in strange words. Even Old Hou's shadow and those from the academy, also had their ugly shadows afraid.

Tsk. 

Sure enough. The Grandmaster's shadow wasn't ordinary either.

The scene in the shadow world also looked like an apocalyptic hellish place.

Dorian's shadow, which was leaning on a rock lazily, slowly tilted its head with a slight smile.

With elegant gestures, it brought itself to its feet. 

Its attire was the same school-styled high-collared attire as the academy's, only it was white without a speck of dust on it.

The shadow slowly dusted itself, before lazily walking with its hands in its pockets toward Dorian. 

"So... we meet again, owner." It said sluggishly. "You know, I'm getting tired of meeting you like this. After all, it's no fun if we can have our big fight, wouldn't you agree?"

What? 

Apart from Haru, Donghai, and a few others, many gasped not expecting to speak human language. 

Was this a superior shadow? Were there grades of shadows they didn't know about? Or could it be that after a while, all shadows upgrade to look so smooth? 

In truth, they were all wrong. All mortal shadows were hideous with no exception.

For Exorcists, though they break out of their mortal shells at the start, it still doesn't make their shadows better looking.

Such were the laws of heaven. They might be cultivators that could live for thousands of years. But in the Book of Life, when they die, they will still fall under humanity.

It's just that they will have more rewards for aiding in fighting and keeping order for the heavens.

Even the most powerful exorcist humankind has ever produced, has a mortifying shadow that hated them the longest. 

Unlike most humans with a short life span of 70~100. 

Heavenly exorcists who live for thousands of years, also keep their shadows under their control for that long too. 

What's more, there are shadow techniques that train one's shadow as a weapon. So how can shadows belonging to cultivators not hate them the most?

Nonetheless, all shadows were ugly, but Dorian's wasn't. 

.

In his former world, he also wondered why his shadow was always different from others. However, after coming to this world, he understood it had something to do with his true identity. But what is it? Only time will tell. 

Dorian frowned, seemingly displeased by his annoying counterpart.

"Noisy.

He had no time to listen to its word games. With a few hand gestures, the strange movements he did, suddenly turned to letters, floating before the space. 

Outside, the many paper men also followed his moves. And soon... 

BOOM~

The ground shook even harder than before and a strange mist shot out from the formation, forcing its way out of the protective barrier. 

GRAHHH!~

What was that? 

Creatures far and wide, suddenly froze, getting an even more enticing whiff they couldn't resist. 

Too strong!

The smell made their bodies move before their thoughts, as they rushed toward the mansion from all corners of the land. 

Creatures in the waters rose, and even the demonic trees uprooted themselves, dragging their heavy bodies over. 

Just then soft whispers echoed through the air, barely audible at first, but growing louder and louder with every passing moment.

What was this? 

The voice carried the chorus of tormented souls, filled with anguish and despair that sent shivers down the spines of any who heard.

The floorboard creaked harder under an invisible weight, as the gang of monsters outside hastily approached.

Holy Sh**!

Bassasano's pupils shrieked, hearing the chaos outside. He had an inkling of what Dorian Was about to do.

"Endo, take a few, stay in the safe zone and protect them."

It won't be long before the walls surrounding the safe zone weaken and fall. They must be ready by then. 

Endo nodded, turning at a few academy disciples and standing around the group. In no time, he and others opened the blue wooden case, taking out what seemed like chalk.

Enough said. 

The ground crouched down and began drawing protective circles. 

Even if the house crumbles on them, provided they are within the circle, no harm will come to them. 

As for Haru, Old Hou and the rest of the Academy disciples, well... it was obvious they would fight alongside him. 

Don't you see? 

The creatures have all come out to play. 

This was the time to eradicate them all, or else once the window of opportunity closes, they won't be able to leave this special even if they wanted to.

That bloody trickster has tampered with this space all too well! 

Though he created the space, alongside his underworld friends, he still had precautions in case for some reason, they tried to forcefully stop his fun.

If they should fail to get out in time, tearing the veil and heading back to their world would be ten times harder. 

It was still doable for Dorian, but at his current strength, he would need to rest and regain his strength before he could do so. In this space that lacked enough natural qi, that could take a while, since he will first have to convert evil qi to natural one before absorbing it. 

Dorian's eyes hardened with a stern light, staring at the ever-changing sun, that was slowly morphing from red to a peculiar shade of purple. They had no time to waste.

Whoosh!

In a flash, he and the others appeared inches before the barrier. 

Holding a small talisman paper, he brought it close to his chest, using two fingers from his other hand and drew out a transparent blue sword from it. 

Of course, he was not all alone. 

Haru and the others drew their weapons, hunching their backs for action. 

1... 2... 3... 

GO!

The daring group jumped through the barrier, raising their weapons high. 

Show time.
