As the entire door was blasted open, both Myne and Wanisa clearly couldn't continue their lovemaking.
Myne pushed Wanisa aside, swiftly tucked his disappointed little brother inside his pants, and hurriedly stood from the bed. He stared at the creature that had uninvitedly entered their room, ruining their fun.
The creature looked so disgusting that Myne couldn't find words to describe it. The horrific creature is a nightmarish sight, its entire body enveloped in what appears to be pulsating red skin, as if it were a living organ exposed to the world. Veins crawl across its surface, resembling insects writhing in perpetual motion, creating an unsettling spectacle.
The creature's wide mouth, filled with green, putrid saliva, exudes a foul odor that perates the air. Thin, tentacle-like hair dangles from its head, and two sharp, pointy horns protrude nacingly.
Its eyes, a fiery combination of red and yellow, continuously drip with crimson blood. A second, unnerving mouth erges on its stomach, occasionally releasing a long, disgusting purple tongue that flickers in and out unpredictably. Adding to the grotesque ensemble is a thorny, one-ter-long tail that whips through the air, leaving a trail of malevolence.
On its back, three half-moon-shaped bones, each half a ter in size, protruded from its body.
Perhaps most unsettling is the aggressive, snake-like creature attached to its crotch area, poised to strike anyone who dares to approach. The entire entity embodies a grotesque fusion of horror, each feature more disturbing than the last, creating an image that sends shivers down the spine of anyone unlucky enough to witness its nightmarish presence.
"By the gods, what the hell this thing is?" Myne exclaid, mouth agape. He quickly covered his mouth, fearing he might vomit on the spot. This creature is just too disgusting to look at for too long.
Wanisa, horror evident in her voice, explained, "Oh no, it's a Venomous Monstrosity, 'Sanguisbane,' the Abyssal creature that resides in the dark fog. Myne, don't let it touch you; otherwise, it can give you so many illnesses that you might never find out until your end. What the hell are the guards doing? How can they let such a dangerous creature enter the town?
Myne, please do sothing; otherwise, the more this creature stays here, the more it affects the air around it, spreading various viruses. If we accidentally inhaled, believe , we might not end up well."
Hiding behind Myne like an innocent and helpless maiden, Wanisa acted like a little princess, whom now only her knight in shiny armour could save from the most terrifying creature before calming her ownership and making her his own.
But for so reason seeing Wanisa's behaviour, especially the playful smile on her face she had after she hid behind Myne, The creature who was silently standing in its place after entering the room, suddenly let out a loud roar, before rushing toward them.
"Can't you give so ti to think? Today's creature has no manners at all," Myne complained, forming a head-sized fireball in his hand before smashing it into the creature's second mouth without hesitation.
Bang...
The creature let out a loud girlish scream? Before flying back more speedily than it had rushed forward and smashed into the wall behind it.
Huh? I thought it would be very powerful, given its horrific appearance, but it seems like I was thinking too much. It settled down with just one fireball. So weak, Myne thought disdainfully and casually walked toward the creature.
Despite Wanisa tightly holding his hand and strongly opposing his decision to approach it, Myne, curious about anything related to the dark fog, moved closer while covering his nose with a handkerchief given to him by Aisha.
As he reached near the creature and observed its strange structure, it suddenly opened its red eyes slowly and raised its left trembling hand toward him. Just as Myne thought it might be about to use a dangerous move on him, the creature's hand fell down, and it again closed its eyes, seeming to pass out.
"Is it threatening that its brethren will take revenge on its behalf, or is it pretending to be fearless in front of its death?" Myne thought funnily while shaking his head, and about to go back to Wanisa to not make her worry too much when he suddenly noticed sothing shiny in the creature's left hand.
Focusing on the shiny object, Myne jolted awake. The thing he was trying to rember as if stuck sowhere in his mind, finally broke through and surfaced. Ignoring Wanisa's previous warnings and the creature's disgusting appearance, Myne quickly ran toward it, grabbed its left hand, and stared at it with a horrified expression.
"Myne, what are you doing? Quickly get away from it! This can be very dangerous for you!" Wanisa urgently called out to Myne from behind, her voice filled with fear and worry.
But Myne had no ti to listen as he looked at two rings on the creature's left hand, continuously muttering under his breath in disbelief. "This can't be, this can't be. What the hell is going on? How can I forget about Velvet? Damn it. Why is this ugly creature wearing Velvet's rings?
I am going crazy."
Yes, the thing that woke him up and made him rember about Velvet was the rings in its hand. One was Velvet's late mother's last trace, which took the first place in Velvet's "Most important things in her life" list, and Myne ca forth in that list. The second was the ring he gave her a few days ago when he confessed his love to her.
This was a special ring made from mysterious black tal, ten tis more expensive than platinum. It made him rember Velvet's black tail, so he had the ring made from it. It was also after seeing this shiny black ring that he rembered about Velvet.
"With Velvet's two most precious things on this creature, only two possibilities remained. Either it had killed Velvet and taken her belongings, then found her rings and wore them on its hand. But judging by the earlier fight with it, it doesn't seem very powerful. Although Velvet wasn't as powerful as Aisha and Sylphy, there is no way she could die at the hands of such a weak creature.
The only possibility remaining is that...
"Damn it, how did this happen? Wait, I should use appraisal, then everything will beco clear. Its status icon also seems to show the host's condition, right?" Myne muttered as he contemplated his next move.

"Shit! Just as I suspected, this creature is Velvet, but sohow transford into such a horrific, disgusting creature. How did this happen? Damn it, what should I do now? According to my appraisal skill, she's also extrely injured. But why is there no note ntioning anything about her new transformation?
I rember that if sothing strange happens to the body, there's always a small note about that condition in the appraisal status... unless the other party doesn't have any problems at all.
Coming to such a strange conclusion that even Myne himself couldn't accept, he stared at Velvet's face blankly from which green saliva was coming out like a waterfall.
"Myne, darling, quickly get away from that creature. There is nothing you might be thinking; it's all this creature's illusion to lure you near it and then infect you with its virus, it had played this trick multiple tis in past... Believe , if this happens, the end will not be sothing anyone wants to see.'
Illusion? Illusion? F*cking hell, can it be an illusion of Wanisa, and mine? And Velvet is still in her normal appearance?" Myne once again ignored Wanisa's warning. He pondered for a mont and cast appraisal on himself.

Huh? Am I alright? If I'm not in illusion, Velvet isn't cursed, and nothing happened to trigger her transformation, then what the f*ck is going on here? Myne thought angrily, but extre fear already started making its ho in his heart. The thing he hates the most is the unknown. The feeling of not knowing the danger you're facing is the reason why he fears ghosts so much.
There are no well-known ans to fight or resist them.
"Darling, are you okay? You're not responding. Did you get infected?"
While Myne was deep in thought, he suddenly heard Wanisa's worried voice from behind. If it were before, Myne might have ignored it again, but this ti, for so reason, hearing her sweet worry worry-filled voice made Myne's heart falter, a chill running through his entire body. Thinking about sothing, he turned to look at Wanisa behind him.
She was still standing in her place, covering her breasts with one arm and her vagina with the other. The worried expression on her beautiful face and teary eyes were enough to lt any stone-hearted man and fill him with the desire to protect this woman, even if it ant doing sothing evil with her to make her worries disappear which she seed to want the most so mont ago.
But this beautiful face and goddess-like body, which Myne was about to taste a mont ago, now filled his mind with a hundred doubts. The one question that made every hair on Myne's body stand to the core and sent shivers through his entire being was...
"Why isn't the appraisal skill working on her?"
