An old man and a young man were slowly making their way over.
Both of their arms sported peculiar tattoos, their eyes carrying a hint of murderous intent.
"Master, is it true what you said before about increasing our strength by transforming virgins into Gu?"
A young man dressed in black, wearing a mask, asked in a cold tone.
Upon finishing, the young man took off his mask, perhaps due to the heat - revealing a startling black pattern on half of his face, somewhat eerie.
Upon closer inspection, the pattern bore a resemblance to a spider.
The elder, who wore a straw hat, stood slightly hunched with white hair atop his head. His face lined with wrinkles, making it difficult to discern his facial features. His white beard swaying in the wind, suggesting a certain charm about him.
A jar was strapped to his back, decorated with an assortment of runes, as if something was being sealed within.
