The monster walked with slow steps but made the whole ground tremble. When the monster almost caught Eryk, he swung his fist at Eryk.Punch!Eryk jumped into the lower pile of used electronics. All the items hit by the monster's fists jumped and scattered in all directions. One of the electronic shards hit Eryk's cheek and scratched it.Eryk wiped the blood off his cheek. Another monster fist came.Eryk flipped backward and landed in a stance. He growled, and his eyes stared fiercely. The giant was no less fierce. He wanted to get Eryk."I wouldn't say twice, Wayland. Hand over your summoned spirit, and I will let you go free. Why do you think your life has suffered all this time? Because of the summoned spirit inside you."Alyssa jumped up while chanting words that Eryk didn't know the meaning of. A purplish light appeared around the girl's body.Another monster appeared, this time made from used tires where Alyssa had previously stood. These tire monsters are bigger, stronger, and w
When thrown, White changed back into the form of a white owl. Her body rolled on the hard ground. Eryk was also flung quite far. His back even hit some electronic junk.The monster made of old tires and the monster made of old electronics came swiftly from two directions. They both targeted White as well as Eryk.At the top of a mountain of used car wrecks, Alyssa stood with an annoying smile. Duri sat on Alyssa's shoulder with a tense face. Alyssa's hands moved quickly. With Duri, she moved the two monsters she made using only hand movements.The monster sprinted closer to Eryk. His feet, made from a collection of several vast and heavy used truck tires, lifted and were ready to step on Eryk's body.On the other hand, a monster made of used electronics swung its fist to smash into the sprawling White. When the first shot above White's body, the owl rolled and flew away with no less agility. The monster's fist hit the ground and left a hole in the punch mark."Fuck!" Alyssa cursed.Sh
Eryk snapped out of his daydream. He had moved and moved places quickly to block White, who was about to attack Alyssa using a pair of sharp claws.White made a loud voice and stared at Eryk with her cold eyes."What are you doing, Eryk? Why are you blocking me from killing this snake girl? She has harmed and endangered us."Eryk crossed his claws in front of his chest to block White's attack on Alyssa. His muscles tensed against the attack from the white owl-summoned spirit."I made a pact with you not to be a murderer. Alyssa may have attacked and harmed us, but we proved we could survive. That is enough."White released her attack and returned to her form as a white owl. She flapped her wings and perched on top of a dented used refrigerator."It seems I have chosen you as a summoner wrong," White grunted in annoyance. "You are too kind, Eryk. Or weak, maybe?""And I think, right now, we won't be able to win against her. Look behind you!" Eryk said, pointing his chin behind White.T
Eryk stood with his hands tucked in his trouser pockets. His tall body could loom in the darkness and over the park wall. The crow flew in circles high above his head, and then he shouted at Eryk."I thought we were going to find something to eat?""Later!" replied Eryk coldly.The young man stopped across from the prison. An old beech tree stretched to the wall, and Eryk is almost hidden among its dense leaves."Why are you here? You're just wasting time, Wayland! We'd better get some food soon. You promised me a delicious dinner!" shouted the crow angrily.Eryk previously heard strange noises from the prison tower. Now his gaze turned to a house that stood across from the prison.Eryk continued to stare at the large house built under the prison's shadow. Since living in the abandoned park, on nights when he couldn't sleep, Eryk often sat pensively on the fence and stared at the house.He couldn't explain why. To see a normal family doing normal things. Unknowingly, Eryk enjoyed watc
Eryk crept along the top of the wall. He continues to follow the steps of the man in a neat suit below."This is ridiculous," said the crow. "You're going to get us all in trouble again as you've never done before."White was still silent, even though her wings followed Eryk's steps in silence.Eryk ignored the black crow's grunts. They had reached the end of the wall, and the man in the suit turned right toward the prison gate. For a moment, Eryk panicked. He couldn't keep following the man without being seen. But then he remembered something.Eryk jumped from the wall and ran across the dark, deserted street. At that moment, White became curious and wanted to know Eryk's next plan. The owl flapped its wings stronger and caught up with Eryk."What would you do?" asked White as it flew over Eryk's head."Finally, you're curious too? I thought you really weren't going to talk to me anymore." Eryk said while continuing to run without slowing down. "Meet me on the roof!"Eryk has reached
Eryk's attention was again diverted to the dark alley below. The man who had just emerged from the underground drainage inspection hole looked up. Instantly a feeling of horror lodged in Eryk's throat."There's something wrong with that guy's mouth," Eryk said to White and the crow perched on the ledge. "Watch his mouth. If only the beard on his face were cleaned, it would be obvious that his mouth was too wide. It was as if his cheeks had been split open in a horrible grin."Eryk's gaze was very sharp. Even though the alley was dimly lit, he could see everything clearly. Eryk realized the sharpness of his vision at long distances at night, along with his ability to understand the language of birds."Yeah, he looks more like the Joker in the bearded version!" The crow tried to be funny, but his voice sounded hoarse and noisy.A heartbeat later, Eryk realized that it was a tattoo. What the crow was joking about was not wholly wrong. The big man tattooed a permanent smile on his face."
Eryk's stomach felt like it was churning at the terrifying sight. The trauma still remains. Even though he now has the power to control summoned spirits, going straight to it and acting as if he were a hero is something Eryk always avoids.Eryk was still transfixed from his spot on the roof. Going down feels so far away. He thought he could get down there with a few jumps, but after that, what? He gulped and stepped over the ledge."That's none of my business!" muttered Erick."Yeah, that's none of your business, Wayland. I told you from the start we better get out of here. You're still following that guy. What exactly do you want to know?" protested White.Eryk refocused his mind when White's question slid into his consciousness."You're right, White. My goal of following Warden Jarvis was nothing but curiosity. And whether it's a coincidence or not, I noticed that the snake tattoo on the convict's chest was exactly the same as the snake symbol on the black-eyed man's ring.""Then? W
Eryk glanced slightly at the man who managed to grab him by the ankles. The man was wearing a police uniform. Another colleague running behind him shone a flashlight at Eryk.Eryk kicked one of his feet into the policeman's hand until his grip was released. Then, he jumped onto the iron rope that separated it from the backyard of the former tin factory.Eryk hopped over the top of the fence. He landed on the other side. Looking back, Eryk saw a dozen police officers approaching him with three or four dogs. Alland and his father were also there.Eryk slid down the dirt steps right in front of the fence and disappeared from sight."Wait!" shouted the warden."No way!" thought Eryk.The young man ran and did not stop. He took a detour and headed back towards the park again. Eryk deliberately chose the furthest path to outwit them and not follow him.Eryk peeked at each end of the street. He had to ensure no one was watching him as he climbed over the park fence. Then, he climbed up the g
