Revenge After Death

Chapter 72

I nodded and walked out of the Nocturnal.

I stood at the entrance and glanced around. It was here where I was once bullied by Michael and those other people. Those drunkards had knocked me around back then.

But that felt like it had happened ages ago. Everything was different now.

As soon as I walked out of the Nocturnal, I heard a sound coming from behind me. I looked back warily and saw a shadow flashing past.

Frowning, I backed away cautiously. An inexplicable feeling of panic rose within me.

I felt like I was being watched the moment I stepped into the Nocturnal today. I still couldn’t shake off that feeling even after exiting that place.

Perhaps it was because I had died once, but it felt like I had become more sensitive.

The night breeze was quite cold.

I took a step back fearfully. This feeling… It was exactly the same as when I had met the murderer at Sunset Alley the previous time.

Another sound came from the alley. A tall figure wearing a poncho stood there with a stick in his hand. I backed away in horror. I turned around and wanted to run away. But maybe due to the fear, my legs felt heavy.

Right when I was feeling overwhelmed with fear, I suddenly bumped into someone’s muscular chest.
