Conquering His Cold Heart

Chapter 291 - 291 Frenzy of Sneezing

291 Frenzy of Sneezing

While Everard sitting down alone at the edge of a small cliff and was drowning in the sea of guilt after killing someone, someone else was busy looking towards the manor of alpha Romulus and plotting something devilish.

‘You are going to pay for what you did, Mr. Alpha,’ Herald thought to himself and then slowly began heading towards the manor.

After walking for a few minutes, Herald took a small vial from the left pocket of his waistcoat. It contained some kind of liquid in it.

Herald looked at the vial and then whispered to it, “You better work. Or else I will have to work a lot harder than what I have planned for tonight.”

He pulled the lid of that vial and then poured a few drops of that liquid onto the tip of his finger. Then he dabbed that finger below his ears and on his wrist. He repeated that process until he was giving off some kind of strange smell. That strong smell didn’t seem to bother him though.

Herald then looked around to see if there was anyone in the vicinity. He saw that the carriage that had dropped him off had already disappeared. And there wasn’t anyone around who could possibly see him unless they had sharper vision than him.

He then looked at the sky and thought to himself, ‘Okay, which path shall I take? The road or the sky?’

He narrowed his eyes at the sky that was now starting to get darker and thought, ‘It isn’t that dark yet. So, I guess I should take the road. I can use the sky after finishing off my job.’

After making that decision, Herald looked at the manor that was straight ahead of him and stretched his arms a few times. And then in the next second, he ran so fast that he was practically invisible to normal human eyes.

.....

Shortly after he neared the manor, he saw a few werewolves at the gate.

One of them was looking directly in his direction. But Herald kept on running nonetheless.

It looked like those werewolves’ vision also couldn’t catch up to Herald’s speed because that werewolf simply looked away.

“Hey, what’s that?” another werewolf looked at Herald and asked the first werewolf.

The first werewolf simply shrugged and asked, “The wind?”

The second werewolf didn’t think that it was the wind. However, he didn’t get to think much because all of a sudden, his nose started to itch very badly. He rubbed his nose violently but the itch didn’t go away. He then tried blowing his nose aggressively but to no avail. Instead of feeling relieved, he began to sneeze very loudly and unstoppably.

And not just him, the other werewolves who were in the vicinity also began to sneeze uncontrollably.

They were so busy sneezing and rubbing their nose that none of them noticed the ‘wind’ jumping over the fence and heading for the manor.

The same phenomenon repeated with the other werewolves who were inside the manor. Not a single one of the werewolves was in the right state to notice that someone had broken inside the manor. And the humans, well they wouldn’t be able to see Herald anyway considering how fast he was running.

And just like that, Herald was able to get inside the manor with great ease.

After reaching the inside part of the manor, Herald finally came to a halt. He hid behind the corner of the thick pillar and looked around. When he didn’t see anyone around, he slowly headed towards the one place where he had heard he would find the person he was looking for.

He walked down the long corridor with caution and then at the end of the corridor, he came across the door that led him to the cold and dark dungeon.

‘Ugh! What kind of god-awful smell is that?’ Herald thought to himself when he inhaled some kind of rotten smell coming from that place.

He looked around carefully to make sure that there wasn’t anyone else down there in the dungeon.

Instead of someone, his eyes fell on the blood splatters that had covered the walls as well as the floor. And not just that, there were even some pieces of clothes that were stuck on the walls.

‘That monster!’ Herald widened his eyes at the sight of the horrible state of the dungeon. ‘He killed humans here, didn’t he?’

He looked around for some more and closed his eyes when he saw something stuck on one corner of the floor. ‘Minced human flesh…’ Herald knitted his brows and pinched his nose in disgust. ‘He didn’t just kill the humans, did he? He ate them…’

Herald then looked towards the entrance of the dungeon with determination and then thought, ‘I still had some doubts about this decision of mine. But now, I don’t think I will feel any pity or remorse towards him.’

Herald suddenly heard someone approaching the dungeon. ‘Must be him,’ he assumed and quickly went to stand in the darkest corner of the dungeon.

The heavy footsteps slowly started to get closer and closer. And Herald spread his fingers and protruded all of his claws.

He was going to ambush and attack his prey as soon as it came into view.

The person who was walking down the stairs of the dungeon sneezed loudly when he smelled the same smell that had driven all the other werewolves into a frenzy of sneezing.

“What the hell smells so bad?” That person mumbled as he continued to walk down the stairs while sneezing again and again.

‘Okay, here he comes!’ Herald narrowed his eyes at the end of the stairs.

And the moment he saw someone coming into view, he was about to rush in. But he suddenly stopped himself from doing that when he saw that the man was carrying a helpless woman in his arms.

The woman looked as though she was unconscious.

When Herald’s attention was diverted for a split second because of that woman, the man who was carrying that woman happened to notice Herald who was standing in the corner like a thief.

He immediately dropped the woman on the floor and leaped towards Herald at once. He used his big hand to choke Herald and then asked in a throaty groan, “Who the hell are you? And what are you doing here?”
