Chapter 722: Strange Realm…

The music and foot tapping on the ground continued for an incredibly long while.

Sometimes, they sang out loud to the song, and from them, Zeras could identify what type of people he was singing amongst.

It should be a single woman with a high-pitched voice and about four men, including the one playing the musical instruments. With them, Zeras made the fifth number.

For as long as the music continued, all he did was simply listen as there was nothing else he could do. He couldn’t see his way, nor did he know just what this phase of the test required of him.

Perhaps, he could try asking the group around him, but he couldn’t interrupt their singing session. So he simply listened attentively, and the more he listened, the more he felt something growing in him.

It was a question. A mystifying question that he couldn’t grasp yet felt needed to be asked. After some time, the music stopped, and then there was a long silence before Zeras quickly felt the prickling gaze on his body.

SLITHER…

The sound of something moving closer to him from the direction of the musician could be heard, but he was unresponsive, even though its movements sounded creepy.

“Tell me, what do you have in mind?” The tone was husky and seemed dry but rang out clearly within his ear. Instantly, Zeras asked the question he finally grasped towards the end of the music.

“Who is Anuka?” he asked, and immediately, he could feel the sound of gasps ringing out from the rest. Instantly, the sound of slithering was heard all over, but they were all stopped by a strange rustle in the air, which Zeras predicted was a hand stretching to the side.

The source of the whistling came very close to him and most likely from the man who asked the question, and he could safely guess he was their leader.

“Why do they seem angry from my question?” Zeras asked the man, and he responded.

“How do you know they are angry if you cannot see?” The question was asked rhetorically to him.

“I can’t see, but I can hear just fine…” Zeras responded to them, and some more, he could feel the intense slithering on the ground increasing once more, but the rustling of the air sounded again, and the slithering stopped.

“If you can hear, then can you differentiate between you and us?” The figure asked him, and a smile appeared on Zeras’s face.

It was a question Zeras never expected.

One which he had been suspicious of, but their question only answered his suspicions.

“When I came, I heard the sound of tapping. I assumed it’s your feet. Then when you rose and came to me, I couldn’t hear the sound of tapping, but of slithering. It confused me; what exactly is happening.

But it is safe to say your lower part is that of a snake. Isn’t it?” Zeras asked.

It was a bizarre subject that he had noticed but had not really cared for much.

“Any mortal who knows of our true form will never live to the next day. It surprises me you know what we are, and you still sat among us.

Do you want to be devoured that badly?” The man said, his voice getting louder and darker, and from him, Zeras could feel the sound of things uprooting out of his body.

He could safely say the figure before him was undergoing some sort of transformation.

“I know of a person that could be like you…” Zeras suddenly said, drawing their attention. “But unlike you, she can walk with her feet, and like you, she can slither on the ground while remaining human.

And unlike you, she can be very big, so much so you will be smaller than one of her scales.

She can transform fully and become a large snake with six heads, unlike you…” Zeras reported, and he could hear the sound of heartbeats increasing intensely.

“That is impossible.”

“Our god Anuka lives in the God realm, untouchable by ordinary mortals like you or me. You couldn’t have seen her…” The husky voice argued, and Zeras smiled before slowly rising to his feet.

“Shall I tell you a truth?” Zeras asked them, and he took their silence for a yes.

“Your god is no special, nor are you. There are thousands of her and billions of you in the real world.

All in all, you’re all idiots who have been lied to, and your goddess is a liar too…” He said, slamming the truth hard on their face before rising to his feet and preparing to leave.

“You can’t leave alive…” The voice threatened behind him as Zeras’s warm expression slowly phased away, replaced by a deadly and cold expression.

“Your god Anuka won’t dare to stop me if she was standing before me right now.”

“TCH, DIIIIIIEEEEE!!!!” A roar came from far behind as the sound of heavy slithering immediately pierced through the silence.

Without turning his head, Zeras raised his leg and stamped hard on the ground.

BAAAAAAANG!

Immediately, a powerful shockwave resounded, the cobweb crack appearing all beneath his feet, and one of the rubbles, circular-shaped with quite a bit of mass, jumped into the air to Zeras’s eye level.

Slowly, Zeras unfurled a finger from his fist and then gently tapped on the pebble.

RIIIIIIIPPPPPP!

The sound of something hurriedly cutting through the air resounded louder than the slithering, and then…

BOOOOOOOOOOOM!

SPPLLLAAAAT!

The sound of something slamming hard against something else resounded, followed by liquid splashing through the air, making quite the loud thump when touching the ground.

Gently, Zeras raised his hands to the ground, and a loud thump followed his motion.

With shock and horror, the snakemen watched as one of their own collapsed onto the ground, his head having been split open, and brain matter splashing over the ground.

The scene was abysmal and incredibly shocking, as they looked behind them and saw a tree with a pebble dug into it.Please Vote with your Powerstones and Golden Tickets. They help the book a lot and one of my greatest source of motivation. Thank you in advance…
