The Man’s Decree

Pairs of eyes kept approaching Jared, filling the entire thatched house with a faint red light. As the eyes drew nearer, the formation around the thatched house activated, encasing it in protective rays of light.

These entities, seeing the activated formation, did not continue their approach. They merely stared at Jared, their unrelenting gaze making his scalp tingle with unease. Jared felt a slight relief due to the formation barrier, as he had no idea to whom these red eyes belonged. If they were monsters, he wouldn’t be too worried. However, if they were powerful magic cultivators, it could spell trouble.
