The creature and Ashton locked eyes. But the emotions they felt were completely different. While Ashton's eyes had a look of shock and puzzlement, the creature's eye remained indifferent as if he was seeing a fly. In other words, the creature did not even view Ashton as a threat.
Ashton should have been happy that the undead creature did not lash out at him instantly. Instead, he was a bit taken aback that the creature had refused to even acknowledge his presence.
It couldn't have been that the creature did not see him. After all, Seraph's crystal was still ablaze, and its unique blue-black flames were a bit too hard not to notice.
'I don't like this feeling at all...' Ashton gritted his teeth.
He was being looked down upon. As much as it frustrated him, he maintained his calm state of mind. If the creature had not noticed or acknowledged him, it would only make it easier for Ashton to strike the creature down.
