Lucien was stupefied as he watch the emaciated body have a black circling mass seeping out. He can almost hear it grumbling after he killed its host.

Wait… Host?

The black mass turn into a floating black smoke, it has two fiery red eyes that glared at Lucien coldly. Lucien stared at the dead body. The starved only skin and bones body transformed. The long claws disappeared. The elongated twisted face slowly retracted. The large back and long arch spine was straighten and went back to normal.

Until Lucien is staring eye to eye to a human middle aged man with black clothes identical to the nun. His heart suddenly sank and he was breathing hard.

"Who is this man in the picture?"

He remembered asking Tina yesterday.

"That's Father! He was our Papa! He rewards us with chocolates for being obedient and loves to play hide and seek."

Lucien slash his whip and tried to capture the black mass. But the whip only went pass the figure. Lucien felt his head aches. No wonder this demon has different appearance from the other demons in the 'Slaying the Demons.'

No wonder he has no horns. Because he was human all along.

Transformation….

Or possession?

Demons hide their original appearance and can perfectly blend in with the mortal because they shapeshift like one. But never in the whole seasons of Slaying the Demon Lucien watch that humans turned into demons.

Were they possessed by a demon spirit?

Impossible. Demons don't have spirits. Lucien's eyes trailed towards the direction where the black evil smoke disappeared into. Then what was that?

At the basement, he heard a clear piercing scream. Lucien loudly cursed and jumped down towards the basement. He slammed the door opened and leap the stairs. At the corner, where the hay stack and children are gathered around, one figure that wasn't supposed to be alive is there.

"Hello, Lucien."

She's more hideous than the Father. Maybe because she was dead, a lot of blood soaked her clothes. The white part of the dress replaced with dark red.

She looked more sinister and evil. The demon has elongated skin in his face. The nun has black turbid eyes, black teeth with rotten breath. The more she opened her elongated mouth, the more the foul smell came out.

"I heard you were playing a game with the Father just now."

Lucien's grip on the whip tighten.

"Oh, I see. He lost huh?" The nun calmly said. She tilted her head and her turbid eyes with that slick long hair covering half of it made her look like that Japanese ghost crawling in the floor.

"Since you lost a playmate, how about we do it together?"

Her long black corroded finger pointed to Lucien's whip. "You have a playtoy. You have free time. I also have free time. But I don't have play mate."

The finger stretch into an outstretched palm.

"How about you become my playtoy?"

Lucien shivered. But he chose to swallow it and look over at the children.

The surviving children are divided into two. Aiden was in the lesser group consisting six children adding him. They are in the closet Lucien instructed him to go.

Aiden and Lucien exchange glances. Lucien asked him what are you still doing here with his eyes and Aiden responded with a shake of his head.

Aiden open the closet for Lucien to see. Lucien take a sharp breath after he found that the hole he remembered was there in the Slaying the demons and confirmed yesterday was gone.

"It will open after two days." The nun siad charmingly. Her eyes hinting a gentle smile to their direction. But because of her morbid appearance it scared the children stiff. Even one of them peed on her shorts. Some are already wet.

Lucien tried to calm himself and said in his usual tone.

"Did you hear the rules of the game I made?"

The nun grinned with her black tooth.

"Yes. But I would like to change something. " she proposed.

"I am the only hunter and you are the prey. We will not alternate roles. Rest time must be removed. In exchange, I will only play with you until your last breath. And then pick that child to replace you."

She pointed to Aiden.

"If you can last forty-eight hours hiding from me, then you will win. But if you don't, that child will have to play with me for another forty hours. If he dies, the next child will replace him and this cycle will continue until one of you survive playing with me for forty hours."

Lucien doesn't like the sound of this. But apart from the replacement in case the first player is dead, nothing has changed.

[Warning: System issued important mission.]

Huh? What? Now? Seriously?

[Do not let the protagonist play the game with the demon nun.]

[Mission is different from tasks. Tasks only reward points based on the difficulty respectively. Mission, on the other hand, will add level to your current Character Chart.]

WHAT THE FUCK IS CHARACTER CHART?!

Just then, words suddenly hovered above Lucien's head.

[Host Name: Lucien Blake]

[System assigned: System 008]

[Level: 1]

[Strength: 1]

[Affection level: 2]

[Flexibility: 1]

[Adaptability: 1]

[Fighting skill: 0]

[Housewife skill: -1]

[Medicinal knowledge: -2]

[Resourceful skill: -1]

[Seduction skill: -2]

[Sensitivity level: -2]

Lucien can't believe his eyes. It's not that he doesn't have some knowledge about system novels. In fact he do. Some of his friends strongly recommend reading it to him. But he can't understand a thing.

It's full of tasks plus this flexibility, agility nonsense he can't understand. Lucien remembered its called stats.

Now if these words hovering above him are his stats....

Then who the fuck invented this?!

What seduction, housewife skills are you fucking kidding me?!

Lucien was momentarily distressed about this nonsense Character Chart. He completely forgot about the danger of the nun who was smiling oddly at him since he came in.
