Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 565  Final Revelations!

One by one, several people were brought forward. Clenching their fists, they felt their hearts drum with excitement.

Are they to start the competitions? Will they be the first contestants in line for their countries? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Several people in the crowd were annoyed and still felt the selection process was unfair. However, they dared not utter a single word of retort.

Wiggins stood at the center with his heart pounding beneath his calm exterior. The air was thick with tension and unspoken questions, and Wiggins knew the moment of truth had finally come.

"Now, we divide you all into 2 groups. Red Team and Blue Team…" With a nod, Harry, Berry, Julius and several others once again walked among the selected group, feeling a slight burn in their palms when walking beside some within the group.

They believed that the talisman coins in their hands wouldn't lie.

Beneath the human skin staring them in the face, must be a grotesque appearance they inwardly feared. … Swallowing hard, trying hard to maintain their stoic expressions, so as not to rattle the snake before it detected their plans. "Good physique," Berry complimented, giving a slight nod of acknowledgement to one of the creatures in human clothing. "You… You're good. Red Team!" Phew~

So far so good. No one man or monster suspected a thing. Till now, everyone only thought of the competitions ahead. One by one, several people were divided between the Red and Blue Teams. Wiggins soon released a sigh of relief when seeing the monsters in Red Team all stand in the chosen spot Old Gia had told him about. Watching the chosen people separate into various teams, Wiggins and his team felt they had never been so anxious in their lives. F***!

Their palms were sweaty, but their bodies were chill and cold. Even when seeing the birth of their children, they were not as anxious as now. After seeing Old Gia nod their way, everyone, including Dalahali, now visibly relaxed before the crowd.

Time to Start.

…

Wiggins began, his voice carrying across the space. "What I'm about to reveal will change everything you thought you knew about our world."

He paused, scanning the faces before him. Some looked skeptical, others raised their brows with interest. Wiggins took a deep breath and continued.

"The world is not as we know it. For years, we've lived alongside monsters... Creatures that hide in plain sight, feeding on our fear, our despair, and sometimes... on us."

–Silence—

"I know this sounds impossible, but I assure you, it's true."

Pfft~

A superior from another country let out a high-pitched muffled laugh, causing several others to join in laughter. And soon, the entire congregation was laughing.

"Did you listen to him? Monsters?... Hah-hah-hah… It seems these people from Vardos country have drunk too much before coming here. Or else how can they spew such nonsense from their mouths?"

"Exactly! I think we should lock them up in a psych ward for wasting our time here! Goddammit, we came for a competition and not to listen to their made up fantasies!"

Several people in the crowd, including the superiors from the mysterious organization and the other countries, were already angered and disappointed by the turn of events.

"What a waste of time," The undercover leader of the hidden organization muttered, already gesturing for his men to swarm over, shove these Vados people aside and start the bloody competitions already. Similarly, this meant the Vardos country would have to pay an arm and a leg for compensating him for wasting his precious time for this.

From his pocket, Wiggins produced a stack of paper talismans, each inscribed with intricate symbols in red ink. The crowd watched, a mixture of curiosity and apprehension on their faces.

"These are special gifts," Wiggins explained, holding one up. "Everyone here is to keep these gifts at all times, until told otherwise."

A word to the wise is enough.

Wiggins turned to his assistant, Catherine, who stood nearby with a large bag.

The young woman nodded, her face serious as she began distributing the talismans to the crowd. People took them hesitantly, examining the strange symbols with a mix of wonder and skepticism.

Even the monsters in human clothing were confused by the group's operation too. The fact that Wiggins spoke of monsters, did not cause them to panic one bit. Take a look around you.

Who believes such a thing to be true? If anything, everyone was looking at Wiggins's group as if looking at mentally deranged patients.

Heh-heh-heh-heh~

How Naive.

The creatures looked at each other tactfully, smiling lazily underneath their human masks.

However, they were also curious to know how Old Wiggins and his group would prove their theories right. After all, there were no exorcists in this world,... no one to truly force them out of their shells.

Speaking of Exorcists, they had never seen one in their entire existence, only hearing various versions of what an exorcist should be like.

…

One side laughed at the thought of monsters existing amidst them, and another side chuckled, wondering how the humans would prove their existences.

Wiggins' took a deep breath, knowing that not only would he expose the existence of creatures, but he also had to show their true strengths, making everyone understand that no mortal weapons could kill them.

And for this, the Grandmaster had given him permission.

That's right, under the targeted place, Team Red, he stationed these monsters under, there was a formation that would make these creature's unable to contain their true forms. And then, he, Wiggins, will see who is laughing then. It was amazing that the Red Team not only consisted of soldiers who originally chose to enter the competitions, but also consisted of some leaders who were picked and selected out too. Of course, to make it more buyable, they also picked out some human leaders/superiors and sent them to the Blue Team too. In the end, they truly managed to keep all monsters in one spot without too much suspicion. But now, from his earlier words, the monsters should have already known his intentions. However, they weren't panicked because they didn't know Dorian's title of being an EXORCIST.

Hahahahahahahahahah~

"Incredible. To think someone as powerful as Old Wiggins dares to crack suck jokes with us."

"That's right. Monsters? Pfft~... I would rather believe the world is coming to an end than believe such pure utter rubbish!"

Bahahahahahahahha~

Several people laughed so hard their bellies began hurting. However, their laughing spree didn't last long, because after Old Gia and the others moved their fingers like ninjas, they saw a scene that left goosebumps all over their bodies.

The leader of the secret organization was chuckling in amusement, while staring at his second in command, Wolfblood, who had been placed in the red team ahead. But then suddenly, he saw a thin, crooked red line, slowly appear and spread on his Wolfblood's face. Eh?

Was it his imagination or was there another line, and another and another that were now growing larger and larger by the second?

Several people, including Kletus and Khalea, also noticed the bizarre scene. Already, some people began moving closer to each other while glued to the scene with widened eyes.

.

Shrip~

That was the sound of human flesh now peeling off from the faces of those in Team Red. Gulp~

Several onlookers swallowed hard when questioning if human flesh could peel off like bananas. But more importantly, who left the AC on? Several people standing outdoors, truly felt a freezing chill erode their bodies. This was just too unscientific. How can the temperature lower by several degrees in under a few seconds? Kletus felt he suddenly didn't understand the world around him anymore.

Too Windy! It's too windy!

Several people felt their feet threatening to lift off from the grounds. Luckily, they were all clogged and bundled together, making it harder for them to fly off. And amid their struggles to remain on ground, they still kept their sights ahead, watching the strange skin-peeling phenomenon take place.

A thought came to mind, but their rationing brains still rejected the idea, feeling it was all too preposterous.

But whether they accepted the idea or not, fate had a guaranteed way of forcing it down their throats.

SHRAK!

All human flesh ripped out explosively, as the many creatures of various colors now started growing and growing 3~10 times their regular size.

Blugh!~

The puke festival began. "You-You-You-You"

Several people's faces turned palish white while pointing their quivering fingers at the sight before them.

Their eyes widened even more, their hearts trembled with fear, their bodies weakened like noodles and their minds churned in disbelief, wondering whether they were all dreaming or not.

Drip~

Several people peed themselves, as the sight before them was far above human comprehension.

"M-M-M…MONSTERS!"

Oh? Now, you believe him?

Old Wiggins' wished he could curse them loudly, but found that he too went limp in terror while staring at over 300 monsters of all shapes and sizes, now smiling at them cruelly.

FOOD!

The monsters now had green gooey saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths while staring at them. Sure enough, they were nothing but prey to these creatures.

Again, why do they have to be so Goddamn ugly?

BLUGH!~~~~
