Chapter 1774
"As you said, it's just a rumor. I'm sure the elders just said it to scare people. Only fools like you would believe it," Jeffrey scoffed. He had heard of that rumor, but didn't believe it.
For the past ten years, the villagers had told stories of a sea witch that lived in the depths of the sea and survived by sucking the blood of men. Many fishermen had apparently been harmed by the sea witch. Usually, the men would end up dead, but sometimes, the sea witch would bewitch the whole family and make them kill each other. The sea witch would go to different places along the shore every year, and this year, her place was supposedly Joyner Village.
"My mom said the sea witch looks pretty, and they'll always pick the strongest and most handsome man in the village to be their victim. Jeff, in our village, that's you! If she comes to our village, she'll start with you." Daisy clenched her fists and stared at Renee's room on the second floor, full of hostility. "I think she's the reincarnation of the sea witch. She'll kill you one day, believe me!"
"Are you out of your mind?" Jeffrey generally had a good temper, but Daisy's accusations were pissing him off. "She befriended my family many years ago, and we're all very close. She hadn't come back for many years, and I'm happy that she's here now. You don't have to like her, but just don't spread rumours about her."
"I know that she came to our village a long time ago. I always played with her when I was young, and I liked her too... but it's hard to rule out the possibility that the sea witch didn't possess her." Daisy lowered her voice and said, "Don't you think she looks different now? She has dark circles under her eyes, and her eyes are blue now. It doesn't seem normal. If she's been possessed by the sea witch, she isn't herself right now.
The one you're protecting isn't the perfect woman you remember but a demon who's here to kill you!"
"How is that possible..." Although it sounded insane to Jeffrey, he did realize that Renee was different from what he remembered. In his mind, Renee was confident, straightforward, outspoken, and positive like the morning light at the beach, wonderful and warm. But now, she was listless, downcast, and quiet. When she got angry, she behaved like a mad woman.
It did seem like an evil spirit had possessed her.
When Daisy noticed the change in Jeffrey's expression, she knew that he agreed with her. "I'm right, aren't I? You feel like she's changed a lot, right? She went missing for so many years, but suddenly came back to your house and... kissed you. She must be trying to seduce you! It sounds like a sea witch's tricks. Aren't you worried that she'll ruin your family?"
"Yes, I am." Jeffrey's expression became more serious. "I'm worried that she'll harm us, and I'm also worried that the sea witch might harm her too."
"Yeah, so you can't take this lightly. You have to do something about it."
"What should I do?"
