Chapter 1616: Live Two!

Second floor bedroom, the Scarecrow stands in the middle, facing the door. Suddenly, its eyes blaze with dazzling red light, stirring even the air with excitement. Five red-eyed crows appear at the door, their claws clutching the Star Lamp; upon encountering the Scarecrow, they emit a "caw-caw" sound and vigorously flap their wings.

At the moment of seeing the Star Lamp, the Scarecrow's arm begins to bend and stretches forward, as if it has joints. Its right hand, clad in Black Gloves, grasps the spherical handle of the Star Lamp.

Finally...

However, what the glove touches is not the handle of the Star Lamp, but rather a warm hand. This hand's muscles are strong and solid, providing reassurance, at least when it was considered a companion.

At the same time, a pair of eyes with red gaps at the edge of the pupils appear, carrying an unmatched power in their steadfast gaze.

The fear effects of the Ancient Gaze take effect.
