The world was gloomy, as the rain fell heavily, causing the people gathered in this area to have a dark mood. One individual or rather, humanoid creature, carefully made its way through some tall unusual shrubberies, before it was a muddy ground with vaguely visible footprints, each leading to an odd-looking arrangement of bushes.

Chaaaaaaaa! Splash-crunch!

Each of Its steps through the muddy water and trodden grass was mostly drowned by the unceasing downpour. Quickly, this humanoid creature managed to make its way to the strange looking arrangement of bushes. It then swiped its claw-like hands towards the shrubberies attempting to rip it to pieces.

A cold and cunning light shone brightly within the depths of its red eyes.

Swish! Quickly, the arrangement of bushes was destroyed by the creature's claws, but what laid underneath its covering filled the humanoid creature with confusion.

It was a small unfinished hollowed section of the earth looking as if it was recently dug by an animal to rest that soon after left in a hurry. There were no signs of any creature laying in the small pit as it was too little to fit even small deer.

The creature looked at the pit and cursed under its breath, "Tsk! Another dead trail, where the hell did this damn human hi---?" But, before it could finish its statement, there was an interruption.

Shing~! The sharp cry of the sword echoed vaguely for a moment in this dense pouring rain as a cold gleam of light flickered across the neck of the unguarded humanoid creature.

As the humanoid creature felt the sudden change, it tried to react by opening its mouth to warn its 'kinsmen' within the vicinity. However, it was too late, for its head had already soared into the air while blood shot forth from its neck only to be drowned as away by the harsh rain.

Fwap! Its corpse fell into the muddy water on the gloomy but lush field, the odd grasses that grew nearby quickly reacted by wrapping around its form and drawing it further beneath the earth, soon, the corpse became one with the scenery.

Sou! The figure of handsome red-haired youth appeared holding a sharply shimmering black sword in one of his hands; the sword dripped with dark-colored blood that covered a small section of its blade. His clothing was dirty, his hair unkempt and face was coated with dark, dirty marks, filling him with a wild, ferocious spirit.

Feng Yu looked at the now 'grassland-corpse' of the Ghoulfiend that became a part of the earth with a cold glint in the eyes and spoke, "Hmph! Trying to sneak up on my hideout by yourself is no different from fool's errand."

After finishing his words, Feng Yu then jumped back into another section of dense shrubberies his figure fading away into the darkness beneath this cluster of bushes.

Step-step-step!

Quickly, the sounds rapid of footsteps could be heard as a group of Ghoulfiends made their way over to the area where vague sounds of battle had slightly echoed. A pity though, for what lingered there was nothing but the vestiges of swift struggle as the corpse and its killer had both faded away...
