Why has it come to this...
The mental parasite monster was puzzled by the sudden turn of events that had become very disadvantageous for it. The roads had been sealed off, and the witch relentlessly located it. It wanted to retaliate but was restrained by the divinely powered skull and could not bring about any substantial impact on the witch.
On the contrary, the witch was growing rapidly. Although her progress was still negligible compared to it, the combination of her improvement and the skull imposed additional pressure on it.
With such precise location tracking, there was no need for elaborate arrangements to block the roads; it was enough to focus on just a few key places. Many people in Hazy City were eager to capture it, and those local forces were simply too overbearing. They not only captured a good number of its avatars but also were closing in on its main body relentlessly.
