Who hid My Corpse!

Hewinia naturally understood the implications of Bai Wei's words. She asked, "Can your eyes see the spellcasters?"

"At least they can see through the spell traps in that invitation," Bai Wei said slowly, "which would've prevented this mess."

He paused, then added with a smile.

"How about it, do you want to go back to the dormitory and dig out your eyes before returning to class?"

Hewinia didn't answer again.

Of course, she had considered employing Bai Wei's power, but after reading that ancient tome yesterday, she understood just how dangerous a being Bai Wei was.

No matter who her current enemy was, they couldn't be more dangerous than Bai Wei.

Moreover, Hewinia believed she wasn't in a desperate situation just yet.

She had thought it over carefully last night.

Those who knew her identity couldn't be from the "public eye."

Otherwise, she couldn't possibly still be operating under the guise of Hewinia.

Which meant that the person who knew her identity hadn't exposed her yet.

Thus, the other party's purpose became clear.

They also wanted to consume the Golden Score, just like the real Hewinia from a year ago.

So, this was an opportunity.

Hewinia narrowed her eyes slightly, a dangerous aura shining in her pupils.

So, to find him and kill him, just like she had with the real Hewinia, just like she had with Aiman.

After all, this wasn't the first time for such events.

She could manage without relying on the power of Visas!

Hewinia stood by the shore of Thousand Snow Lake, taking a deep breath.

The cold wind that blew across the lake's surface filled her nostrils, gradually calming her slightly unsettled emotions.

The tenser the situation, the more important it was to stay calm.

The calmer Hewinia was deliberating what expression to use today to portray "the lady whose body was touched by a sleazy Player using a disgusting spell" when suddenly, her body stiffened, and the hairs on her skin stood on end.

It was as if something has set its sights on her.

She instinctively turned her head, looking in the direction of the bad feeling.

That direction was the endless Forbidden Forest.

She couldn't see anything, but she felt an extremely malicious gaze locking onto her, rendering her immobile.

Fear surged in her like a tidal wave.

What was... that thing?!

Hewinia wanted to speak, but her throat seemed frozen, wanting to move, but her body felt as if it had been encased in ice.

And that malicious gaze was inching closer to her.

Even though separated by hundreds of meters, even though she couldn't see anything, she felt as though she could hear the sound of its claws crushing bones, a sound not even the howling wind could suppress.

Was she going to... die here?

That was Hewinia's sole thought at the moment.

Then she heard that voice, which was always light and cheerful in her mind, speak with the utmost authority and decisiveness to that gaze.

"What are you looking at?"

"This is my prey."

The voice merged from her mind into the wind.

"Scram!" It was both a roar and a command.

The malicious look vanished in an instant.

Hewinia's body instantly returned to normal, with only the monotonous sound of wind by her ears.

Hewinia knelt on the ground, her entire body drenched in cold sweat.

"What was... that thing?" she asked in a low voice.

"That thing? There was nothing there, Miss Hevnia."

Bai Wei's reply was relaxed.

As if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.
