Chapter 38: Evolution-1
Vritra walked casually in the busy market while looking around, showing interest in different things in the market.
’Do you think we can kill them all?’
"Hmm, not all of them. We can kill more than half of the group, but there are a few who are quite strong and fighting them now could bring trouble later, so let’s just leave for now," Yasmine suggested.
’Alright, but how are we going to do that? These guys are following me like their lives depend on it.’ He felt a headache while sensing those prickly stares from behind.
"Leave that to me. As soon as you are out of their sight, I will take care of it," Yasmine said with confidence.
While Vritra was deep in thought, he almost collided with a large bull. Halting his steps, he took a step back, a bit surprised to see a bull walking on the street.
After focusing a bit, he saw someone riding the bull; it seemed to be a man in his twenties whose bald head was shining under the sun. He was holding a wooden staff in his hands and wearing an orange robe.
He looked like a monk, with half-closed Chinese-like eyes and a fox-like face.
"Hoho, please forgive me, pitiful one." The man spoke in a high-pitched voice that was a bit too thin for a man. Then he added: "Hello, I am Monk Shitless. I didn’t see you down there and almost hit you, please forgive me. If you don’t mind, can you tell me the way towards the temple?"
Vritra looked at the monk and sensed that his followers had paused too. After a moment, he pointed backwards and spoke: "Go straight from here."
"Okay, okay." Monk Shitless nodded with a smile.
