Chapter 476: Walking Together

Ulise was so frightened by the strange changes in his magic house that he could not move, and there was also a foreign body sensation coming from his throat.

 Ouch!

 A large number of octopus tentacles were vomited to the ground mixed with dark liquid.

When he wanted to use his Skin Capacity to detect and protect his whole body, bang~ The pores in the skin in many places on his body were enlarged, and tentacles emerged from them, causing general paralysis and even the inability to use his Skin Capacity.

  A feeling of visceral fear began to overflow.

However.

William, who was watching all this, might not be affected by the strange situation in front of him because he did not feel fear.

He uses his epileptic brain to make a sonorous and powerful voice,

 “Catherine!”

With this cry, all the activated human face masks calmed down, and the weird octopus tentacles were retracted from their bodies, but the nightmare liquid dripping on the ground was still there.

The woman's mask that shouldn't exist slowly protruded outwards, and the familiar twin ponytails also appeared, as the black and white stockings stepped on the ground.

 The main member of the Circus of Horrors, Nightmare Catherine, came out.

 Compared to the girl I once saw in Zion,

The Catherine in front of her has obviously matured a lot, but her girlish temperament has not completely faded... the overall feeling is much more dangerous.

Black makeup on white background,

The moist tongue licked slightly on the surface of the black lips, and the dark eyes were watching the young man not far away.

Before the two of them could say hello to each other, the frightened Ulise spoke first:

 “Ms. Catherine, why are you here!”

Seeing that the artistic conception of reunion that was finally created was interrupted by an outsider. The corners of Catherine's mouth twitched, a vicious breath escaped from her body, and the blackened index finger of her right hand pointed at Ulise's forehead.

  A fundamental "nightmare phobia" will be injected into the opponent's brain with the fingertips.

It will not cause death, but this phobia will make Ulisse haunted by nightmares every night, and he will inevitably make mistakes in future performances.

 Just as your fingers were about to touch your forehead, snap!

William pinched Catherine's wrist to stop this behavior.

“Catherine, how about taking me to visit the circus? I just came to the magic area from the recruitment channel, and I haven’t been to other areas yet.”

 “Okay, come with me~”

Catherine's mood changed instantly. She even forgot that there was a magician's assistant in front of her. She took back the black substance on her fingertips and held William's hand. She couldn't tell how happy she was.

Mr. Ulisse was stunned again for a long time. The invasion of nightmare fear made his legs weak. He finally stood up due to multiple cortical hyperplasia.

 He once again fell into doubt and confusion,

This deputy clown, who is also a major member of the circus and has survived and been promoted in the most difficult clown house, actually talked and laughed with this young man.

 More importantly, the young man William seemed not to be affected by nightmares throughout the whole process.

 Ulise came to the door cautiously, letting a small piece of skin carry his eyeballs to slightly poke out of the door frame, and the sour smell of love between a young man and a woman was visually captured.

　　Not only did they hold hands, but they also whispered into each other's ears from time to time. This scene made Ulise feel bad all over.

 “What’s going on!?”

 …

"How is it? Is the nightmare experience just now different from the time in Zion?"

William directly gave his inference, "Your nightmares can directly invade reality and even "change" reality to a certain extent. The effect and coverage of the change should be directly related to the individual's fear value.

 Catherine, congratulations. "

“This is all thanks to William and the group of humans related to you. If it weren’t for the complete failure in the human city, I wouldn’t have progressed so fast.

 Now I am no longer afraid of Mr. Art, I am already a clown on my own. "

William glanced at Catherine with disdain, "Really? When you tried to implant the nightmare phobia into Ulisse's brain just now, you were somewhat similar to the main clown.

Your nature is being changed by that clown, Catherine, you should know it better than me, an outsider~"

Catherine was slightly stunned by William's response and quickly changed the subject.

“That guy ruined the atmosphere of our reunion and should be punished... This is Uncle Jain’s territory. He will help clear the negative influence from the assistant’s brain, so don’t worry too much.

alright! Let’s not talk about such disappointing things. Speaking of William, why did you come here all of a sudden? I thought you had to wait for a few years.

And your speed is so fast. Have you reached the limit of open source? "

 “Your two questions can be combined into one.”

 Catherine rolled her eyes, "Oh! Did you come to the circus for the [path]?

　　Hey~ I thought you came here just for me... By the way, why don't you come to the Clown House? If you choose to become an apprentice clown, I can open a lot of backdoors for you. "

“Because I am compatible with Mr. Jain, and the path I am going to find does not exist in the “bright side” of the old world. "

 Catherine reacted quickly, hammering her right hand on the palm of her left hand.

“I see! Is it because of Uncle Jain’s special status as a “Visitor from the Abyss”...Okay~ Anyway, I used to go to the Magic Zone often, so I can meet you at any time if I want to find you.

 Come on up, I’m going to start introducing you to the various areas of the circus! "

Catherine jumped up and rode the roller coaster covered with clown face graffiti again.

"roller coaster?"

“That’s right, the first one I will introduce to you must be my territory! The Clown House is a very secret area that can only be reached by this car.

 Remember to fasten your seat belt. It will be very troublesome if you accidentally fly out during the ride. "

"Clown house? I have to ask a question first. If Mr. Art knew that I was an outsider, would he target me or even do worse things?"

"Don't worry, I will ensure your safety. Let's try not to go to the boss's factory! He is busy trimming his body and will not come out for the time being."

William hesitated for a moment. He was new to the circus, and Catherine's relationship could help him save a lot of trouble and time.

So I took a ride on the rusty roller coaster with all kinds of metal parts creaking.

The vehicle starts to move slowly, and when it reaches the highest point, it dives and falls.

 The lower tunnel was graffitied into a crazy clown's mouth, with viciousness spilling out.

 After a relatively lengthy roller coaster ride, two factories with very different styles that were set up side by side appeared in front of us.

“This is the Clown House! When I first came here, the previous deputy clown was killed on the spot by the boss due to mistakes in his performance and internal problems, and the boss was imprisoned for this reason.

 The entire clown house is empty and left to my own devices.

 Without the influence of my boss, I walked into the factory and took the test as an apprentice clown, and finally became who I am now.

 The process of becoming a deputy clown was very hard for me, and even thinking about it now is quite painful. "

 Suddenly, Catherine put her index finger on her chin, her mouth curved extremely, as if she thought of something interesting.

“William, how about you also try the “Apprentice Clown” assessment? If you pass, I will reward you with a big gift. "

"What?"

 “Let me think about it…”

Catherine scratched her scalp with all her strength, and she even accidentally tore off a large piece of scalp, revealing multiple female faces squeezed together inside. Then she quickly put the scalp back.

“Well, how about a fear collection? This is something that costs a lot of money to buy, and it is very expensive for a newcomer.

 Accordingly, I will increase the difficulty of the assessment. After all, you are very powerful. "

"make a deal."
