chapter 246 the monster apparition the night slowly enveloped the city. after all the trouble and talks during the day, the squads were sent to their respective regions. they were anxious when night came, however, they are more curious about the monster mentioned in the rumors. the camus family is very strong and influential, as clan members or affiliated persons, they know full-well just what their clan was capable of. the soldiers also know their positions in the organizational chart. they were just underlings working under the camus family. that's part of the reason why they were sent outstation by their commanders. the people who get to stay in the camus family hq are the individuals with real power. most of the soldiers are level 7 in strength, and that's normally for positions like basic infantry, guards, and the likes. level 6 would be the average power here. there are high-ranking officials with level 4 power although they are rarely seen. the camus hq's power is great as can be seen from the mobilization of their infantries. yet, no one noticed the "ghost" haunting the place. in the end, they lost 20 members to the ghost. this started causing unease among the soldiers as well as a macabre interest in unveiling the identity of the ghost. a crescent moon hung high up in the sky, raining down its cold light upon the land. it also gave the camus family hq a silver luster that looked out of this world. most of the inhabitants here are still awake because they knew a major operation is in place, they were also not comfortable enough to sleep with a man-eating demon on the prowl. the ones who were tasked with tracking down the demon were also taking their jobs seriously. they made sure to keep their eyes open so they can see the ghost when it appears. more like, they didn't want to end up as monster food. on a high wall overlooking the entire clan compound, nemesis sat within the shadows of a nearby corner. with eyes shut, her slow breathing was barely perceptible. meanwhile, she continued covertly channeling origin as she expanded hercconsciousness beyond the limits of her mind. her consciousness started surging. if someone can sense nemesis's detection ability, they would find that she already covered every inch of the camus hq compound. she could see with indelible detail, the entire compound of the camus family, she could even see the movement and locations of every personnel here. when she sneaked into this place, she used this recon magic to quietly wait for the appearance of that "ghost". although her blood wasn't reacting, she had a feeling that she would uncover something if she stayed here. as time moved on, the soldiers on patrol and guard duties waited for the ghost, even elliot was ready to move at the drop of the hat. elliot walked along the corridor with a calm look. inside, his guard was up but he also felt a sense of helplessness. he should know the troubles his clan found. with news of another monster in their clan compound, the citizens outside are already talking about conspiracy theories like how the camus family is a clan of monsters in human skin. "running away?!" elliot followed the monster while emitting icy blue origin meaning his attribute is ice. he threw a dagger at the runaway monster. swish the dagger landed on the back of the dark qi-clad monster. clang! the dagger only succeeded in marking sparks appear when it failed to pierce the monster's scaly hide. the monster continued escaping as it disappeared from elliot'ssight. "what a scary defense..." elliot is peak level 6 origin master, his dagger throw wasn't empowered by battle techniques or skills, however, it is enhanced by his dou qi and the dagger itself is a rare armament, it should have no trouble cutting through scales, yet it failed to even scratch the monster. elliot yelled out loud. "monster! capture it!" his loud yell echoed throughout the clan compound as soldiers clamored into action. "seize it!" the calm compound immediately turned chaotic. the dark serene night got destroyed as the soldiers started converging on elliot. with weapons ready, the guards charged here. the monster's here!" came the shout of another soldier nearby. "it's here! here!" "it's over here!" the monster couldn't hide with so many eyes looking for it. continuous sightings popped up. then, there were shrieks of pain, rallying cries, and pathetic sobs.n--o.(v-(e(/1--b.)1/(n
