#Chapter76
They followed her with knives in their hands, /"I don't think people like my letnik./" Naive Vierne believed that it was her clothes that had got her into trouble while other creatures believed she was possessed by some naughty demon. She ran into a forest and they followed her but suddenly they stopped and looked ahead.
Lict stood before her.
/"Lord Xian, this woman is possessed!/" They shouted in Chinese. He looked at her. Her clothes and feet were covered in mud, her hair was unruly and her face was dirty. /"She seems possessed. I'll ask Wujin to perform an exorcism./"
He grabbed her arm and pulled her away towards the castle. Vierne pulled away from him but he was strong. She dug the heels of her boots into the ground as he pulled her.
He turned back and looked at her. She smirked, /"Now what?/"
He picked her up on her shoulders, /"Leave me!/" She pulled his kimono in anger, /"It's an order, Lict!/"
