Gloom

Chapter 86

But a demon wouldn't attack me if I was in a crowded place, right?

I began to walk in strides, trying not to bump into other people, trying to get away quickly from there. Mabrax did not seem to be the type to wait patiently to attack, he gave the impression of someone who was carried away by his impulses, just like Azazziel. I soon found myself praying it was my imagination, even though there was no chance of it. She was so sure, she knew the feeling so well, it was impossible. He wasn't even carrying a rosary or a fucking bottle of holy water, so I had nothing to defend myself against a supernatural being.

If I ran into one of them now, I was done for.

Without realizing it, zigzagging between the streets, I ended up in a sector that I didn't recognize. I already felt the sweat on my forehead and neck due to the physical effort, and the same fear that consumed me. My breathing was too rough. Whatever place I was in, it was much less crowded than before and that worried me even more.
