Chapter 11 - Chapter 11; But how come witches exist??”

After climbing for a while, they finally saw a rough road, it was bumpy and rocky, leading upwards, they sat down and exhaled loudly.

"Damn it!!! what kind of luck is this!! this is not money beckoning for me, it's disaster!! total disaster." Luo Ning complained bitterly.

"Great now you know it's disaster calling for you!" Tang Xie retorted sarcastically.

"Hehehe... we are in the middle of nowhere, let's start looking for routes and navigate through." Luo Ning said sweetly.

They walked carefully through the rough road got into a village as they walked through visible meanders, it was dark all over but because there was a moon lighting up the whole place, they could see the depilated houses.

"Here we are!! What do we do now?? This village looks just inhabitable, it's like no livelihood exists here." Tang Xie was frightened by the darkness and loneliness it depicted.

Luo Ning felt goosebumps crawl, all over her body, as she said softly, "lets hide inside that bush there and watch the surroundings for anything weird or see any people." saying so they hide inside huge bushes that were along the huge grassland fields.

Just as they had hid beneath the tall trees and grasses, they suddenly saw many groups of people walking towards the huge grassland fields and started lighting up a bonfire, others started dancing in circles while beating drugs and singing weird songs. Another group of people were carrying three humans as the tied them up onto the pole.

They then proceeded to kill them as they roasted them, tearing their meat up and wolfing down like hungry ghosts. When the three of them saw what's happening, they paled, suddenly Tang Xie spoke up, "They are witches too?"

The group of people turned around to look at their direction, they paled, they didn't expect them to have a keen sense of hearing.

Luo Ning signalled them to climb up the trees, and they did so hurriedly, and hid within the tree leaves, camouflaging. The witches rushed to the bush and did thorough search where they had hid, but didn't see any human being.

"No human being here!!" one said.

"Yes I think I heard wrongly..." one also seconded.

"Alright let's go back and roast more meat." another said as they walked back.

Tang Xie,Tang Lin and Luo Ning paled, when they saw the witches walking back to their bonfire, they calmed down a little, seeing that they are gone, Luo Ning signalled them to be quiet and careful not to be spotted.

'Dear God let me survive this calamity, I will be a good girl, I won't go out for more adventures, Preserving my life is more important than that money.' Luo Ning prayed in her heart as she cursed lightly 'this is not money calling for me, but some casted evil magic pulling me into trouble, sigh!! God please hear my prayers, I won't repeat again.'

After a few hours of eating their roasted meat, they went away, after clearing the place and simmering down the fire. Tang Xie, Tang Lin and Luo Ning climbed down the trees, and rushed away hurriedly heading the Northside, they rushed hurriedly and careful with their steps and surroundings. They ran like an a hour before they could finally arrive at the highway.

She rushed forward and stood in the middle of the road, The taxi driver who was rushing home, stepped on the brakes abruptly after seeing figures of three girls standing in the middle of the road.

"What's wrong with you girls? Don't you know it's dangerous standing in the middle of the road? Don't you want to live anymore?" The taxi driver berated them harshly.

Luo Ning rushed towards the car, opened the passenger seat and fastened the safety belt while Tang Xie and Tang Lin took the backseat.

"Driver am telling you, it's no longer safe driving towards that route you are going, you better drive back to City centre, faster before we get ambushed." Luo Ning warned him politely as she panted loudly, this was her first time running this far and for so long.

The Driver could see how shaken they were like quails, he believed her words and then made a U turn, accelerated towards the City centre, he didn't want to risk for his life.

"Luo Ning, are they really witches?" Tang Xie asked worriedly, she still couldn't fathom anything, how could such creatures exist, and more so eat humans!! this was totally unheard of.

"I think they are but not fully evolved yet, because if they were, we couldn't have escaped twice in a row, we will have been bewitched by their enchanting charms and witchcraft, they are really craft and they don't normally let go, of their prey." Luo Ning explained to her politely.

"Luo Ning let's not go out for the time being!! " Tang Xie suggested. When the driver heard it's some weird creatures, like witches, he got really frightened and stepped on the accelerator and speed off.

Tang Xie, Tang Lin and Luo Ning looked at the driver, driving crazily, they didn't laugh but understood him.

"But how come witches exist??" Tang Lin asked worriedly.

"Maybe the world is coming to an end, what will happen when they evolve and have more members, do you think there will be existence of human beings in that place?" Luo Ning said politely.

"So that's to say, in a few years this world will be destroyed, including us??" Tang Lin exclaimed loudly.

"Maybe yes, maybe no... but imagine if there are more races of weird creatures, zombies, Vampires, ghosts, human race will be endangered, and maybe this races are already in existence, and they are just somewhere hiding or reproducing." Luo Ning replied politely.

"Then how is the human race going to survive?" Tang Xie asked worriedly.

"I don't know Tang Xie, right now, what we need to do is learn about these weird races, you never know when you stumble upon one, maybe she is your desk mate!" Luo Ning pointed out.
