I've Got Some News

Suddenly, he heard a faint rustle behind him. He turned around and saw three figures emerge from the shadows. He gasped in horror as he saw their faces. They were scaly and wrinkled, with crooked noses and warts.

"What's with that face, soul eater? Are you stunned by my beauty?" Netta said, wiggling her brows at him. "Or are you scared of us?"

Guo Huizhong swallowed, recognising that annoying voice. "Oh, that... it's dark out and I didn't know if anyone was here." 

He cleared his throat and changed the subject. "Regarding the mage, I got word that a portal was opened. That's what you wanted to know, right?"

"Ooh, that's wonderful," Netta clapped her hands. 

Cilla nodded "Where was this sighting? Tell us."

Guo Huizhong hesitated. "Well, the person didn't actually see it, but felt it."
