Chapter 184: Why Is There a Cat Here?
The attic plunged into a deeper darkness, and the air seemed a little colder. The lights in the coffin flickered, and their light seemed to be imprisoned within a small radius of the coffin, unable to illuminate the attic.
‘Something’s here with me… But why didn’t my eyes tell me? Why didn’t the charms work?’
He gulped as he concentrated his mind, gripped the kitchen knife with one hand and his toy gun with the other, and stared in the direction that made his eyes burn the most.
He could hear faint sobs, and the darkness seemed to be swallowing all the light from the coffin.

He continued staring at the darkness, and the fear made him hold his breath as he gripped the handle of the knife until the whites of his hand could be seen.
True enough, something crept beyond the darkness, and a pair of glowing eyes revealed themselves.
He was stunned. The eyes were no higher than his own knees.
‘What the… is it lying down on the ground?’
