Chapter 75: Dont let go of my hand (1/2)
”So, we have to pass through this door?” I ask Christian.
”Yes, this is the door to the domain of lust.” Christian sighs. ”Don't underestimate lust. These demons are unlikely to become violent, but they are quite...handy in other ways.”
He takes a glance a Choi Min Ho before sighing again. I understand his meaning. This kid shouldn't be hearing or seeing things. I wonder why he is here. Did he get thrown here by someone unpleasant like me?
”Don't worry about me.” Choi Min Ho beams at me. ”I am a mind reader, Noona. I am also a boy. I have been hearing the minds of adults. I know things.”
”How long?” Hearing thoughts doesn't sound like a good thing. ”Does it not bother you?”
”I have better control now.” He looks away from me. ”Don't let go of my hand.”
I won't let go of your hand.
I don't say those words, but I know that he can hear them.
”We should go ahead.” Christian turns the knob.
”Fighting!!!” Choi Min Ho yells when he sees Christian disappears when he walks through the door. The Monk and the Fae follow after him wordlessly. I take a deep breath.
”Don't worry, Noona.” Choi Min Ho nudges me softly. ”This isn't the worst.”
His voice is ominous. I frown at him. ”You know what lies ahead?”
”I have some idea.” He stares ahead.
”How do you know?”
”I am a mind reader.” He pulls me along with him. ”I have read some demons' minds before coming here. I know what to expect, Noona.”
”Okay.” Perks of being a mind reader, I guess. We walk through the door. This time, it feels like walking through a sheet of an energy field. It's an eerie sensation.
What the...
I should have expected this. The circle's name is lust. I look at Choi Min Ho who is unperturbed by the scene. I shake my head in horror. I cast a spell to make him temporarily blind and deaf.
”Noona, what are you doing?” Choi Min Ho looks like he expected this. ”I know about the matter between men and women.”
Argh! It doesn't mean that I can let a ten years old kid see an orgy for god's sake.
”Noona, we are in hell.” Choi Min Ho has read my thoughts. ”You should not let them touch you or me. If they touch us, we can never get out.”
As far as I can see, I can only see men and women entangled. There is a nauseating sweet scent in the air. My body is heating up with each passing second. My throat is dry and knees are weak. This scene should feel disgusting, but my body feels like it has been drowned in aphrodisiac.
”Noona, resist.” The kid pinches my hand. ”This is the doing of the lust demon. Create a defence field around you. If they touch you, you are doomed.”
Nobody can resist the touch of a lust demon.
I close my eyes. I try to recall the spells. It's hard to think and harder to remember.
Sung Jun, I have to see him again. Not these demons. That's the only person who can ever touch me. I want to burn these demons alive for making me like this. If I cross hell, I will find him again. I will never let him go. Screw gods. Screw the fate and the world. Screw Reis or Dabria.
My world will make sense if I can embrace him again.
