Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

132 Chapter 132- Trick Or Treat (Part 3)

In a matter of seconds, an army of explosive dolls surrounded the whole group. They had already reached the thousands so they had already covered every corner of the street and kept advancing closer and closer to them.

They had already stopped hitting them so as to not make another chain of explosions that could kill more of them. As of now, two had already died because they were close to the explosion when it happened.

Leislet held the capsule with the sword inside tightly as she ran to the platform where the portal is. She didn't intend to let Nightingale get the sword no matter what.

There was a distance of a few tens of meters but because of the sheer number of dolls that kept coming towards her, it made her speed a lot slower.

Then, as she was trying to avoid a doll that appeared to her side. A high-pitched sound alerted her senses.

"Shit!"

*BOOOM*

One of the dolls came too close and was able to take Leislet by surprise as an explosion happened almost next to her.

"UGGGGGGHHH!"

The explosion made her jump back a big distance. She was able to minimize the damage from the attack as much as she could but she still sustained some burns because of the explosion. Her left arm was the most damaged one.

She tried to move it just to make sure it was still functioning. Luckily, except for the pain, it was still moving properly. She then looked at the hordes of dolls that were now targeting her deliberately. It seemed that they were controlled by someone to make sure they attack the people he or she wants them to attack.

Her light element was also useless against these creatures since they are not monsters or living beings for that matter.

So, as she was getting cornered slowly but surely, help came for her.

The mission supervisor jumped out of nowhere and landed on the ground like some kind of superhero, creating a shockwave that pushed the dolls away without destroying them.

His element was sound so he was able to create strong high-frequency sounds as a form of attack.

"You can move! I will cover for you!" He shouted loudly as he pushed another group of dolls.

Leislet nodded gratefully and used the opportunity to run straight towards the portal. There were only 10 meters left for her and she could see the end. If she could just secure the sword, everything else will be easier.

But, it proved not to be that easy at all as the moment she took a step on the platform's first staircase, a chilling feeling ran through her spine as she felt a sense of danger strong enough to make her freeze in her place coming from upstairs.

She didn't dare to look up for a second as her face paled and her eyes widened. But, she soon gathered the courage to look up. However, there was nothing there. No person, no doll, or even any kind of soul energy.

It was just like how she saw it a few seconds ago. But, even with that, she couldn't move her body at all.

'This feeling…something  gravely wrong is happening but I can't wrap my head around it.'

She saw how the other hunters were struggling with the dolls, the occasional sound of explosions accompanied by the screams of pain caused by it.

They were wall fighting with all their might to stay alive and end this mission. But, she felt as if all of this was nothing but a small part of the bigger picture. A scheme that they were walking straight to without knowing.

'What should I do? Think…come on think!' She racked her mind trying to find what was wrong.

Then, it clicked with her. Her pale face soon turned into a small smile. It was a smile of mockery and also relief at the fact that she discovered the anomaly.

She then retreated slowly until she was a few meters away from the platform.

*Swish*

After that, just like a crazy person who lost his mind, she charged toward the closest building to her. Some saw her weird action and almost shouted in confusion.

They thought she had lost her mind because of the crazy situation they were in. But, what they saw next destroyed all of those thoughts immediately.

Leislet had run head first into the wall, but instead of a loud impact, she passed through the wall without even touching it. As if the wall was an illusion.

Everyone had to rub their eyes multiple times to make sure they weren't going crazy too.

As for Leislet, she smiled widely when she saw that her theory was right.

"All of this…was a fucking illusion!" She shouted loudly.

Then, she immediately called for all of the hunters to come with her. They had been fighting inside an illusion domain created by some kind of power.

They probably recreated the same street where the portal should've been just to trick them and make them fall into that trap.

The danger she felt when she was on top of the platform was probably the trap they prepared to make her give them the sword without even knowing it.

After that, everyone ran to the buildings hurriedly. Leislet saw as Scarlett also came with the whole ambulance behind her.

Leislet walked to the ambulance to check on him as quickly as she could. If this was all an illusion then the chances that they might've taken Acht without them knowing is not impossible.

"Fuuh, he's here." She breathed a sigh of relief at that fact and then focused on where they were at the moment.

Scarlett also seemed to be trying to determine their exact location in the city.

As they were looking around, suddenly, without even a sound or an attack.

*Drop* *Drop* *Drop* *Drop*

The sound of bodies falling down to the ground reached their ears. They turned around and much to their shock, everyone except both of them was now laying on the ground unconscious.
