How to Get My Husband on My Side

Chapter 16

 

 

What the hell was in there, apart from those awful crocodile-like teeth? Maybe corpses?

 

“Augh…”

 

I got goosebumps all over my back. I moved back hurriedly, biting my tongue to avoid screaming. It made a strange sound, flapping its weird arm, which seemed to have claws on the wing-like parts.

 

“Po, po…”

 

“S-Stay away…”

“Po, po, po, po…”

 

….it should have felt threatening, but somehow it sounded funny.

 

Its flapping arms also didn’t look good on it.

 

“Over there…”

 

“Po, po.”

 

“Come on…”

 

“Po, po, po.”

 

Despite my desperate efforts, the mysterious creature waddled up to me, making a mysterious noise.

 

The view in its wide-open mouth was horrible, so I just closed my eyes, when my body got thrown up into the air again.

 

There was a strange cry from afar.

 

It sounded like someone was wailing sadly. Maybe it was just the sound of my heart.

Wasn’t it too futile for a girl to die like this?! I was trying not to get killed by my husband, but I don’t want to get killed by a Popo monster instead! The Popo monster picked me up with its short arms, and waddled around to look for a place when there was no one. I was dragged behind to a nearby rock. I wanted to scream, but I felt that as soon as I screamed, it was going to bite my head off in one bite.

In addition, a sudden ominous chill made me feel suffocated. The sound of hooves approaching.

 

I was trying to scream, but I felt uncomfortable somehow.

 

I had a gut feeling that I shouldn’t show any sign of being here, instinctively.

 

At a glance, the Popo monster was holding its breath, holding me tightly in its arms.

 

At last the one approaching us reached a point where it could be seen.

 

“Wuuu!”

 

If it wasn’t for the moonlight, I’d just think it was just a knight. Sitting on a pale blue horse, it certainly looked like a knight. Just in a decapitated state.

What looked like a severed head was stuck to its side.

Was this what Durahan was about?

(T/N: Durahan/Dullahan: a headless rider, on horse, who carries his own head held high in his hand. )

 

It was even more terrifying in reality than I had imagined. Durahan stopped his horse for a moment and stood still, but only when Popo and I were about to die from suffocating, did he slowly turn his head.

 

A cold sweat ran down my cheek.

 

“Whoo… “
