American Horror Story: A Tale of Terror from Silent Hill

Chapter 105 Applause
"Wuwuwu... I'm not a human... I'm a monster."

Carrie seemed unable to accept it. She always believed that even if she had not yet grown into a complete person, she would be able to do it as long as she made up for what she lacked.

But now, she seems to be getting further and further away from people.

It's not a very strong power, and you can still deceive yourself that you are just slightly different from others. After all, this is not without precedent.

But the power was too strong, beyond the scope of ordinary people, and was closer to the abnormal creatures such as demons and witches that her mother often talked about.

Is her dream of being a human being going to end here?
Carrie staggered into the depths of the forest, wanting to cry alone and escape from it all.

Monsters cannot make friends with humans. She has to hide in the mountains and forests alone and live in darkness.

But before she could take a step, her hand was grabbed by Baling. With unquestionable strength, Jiali was firmly fixed in place, unable to break free.

"Monster! I'm just a monster! Please let me go."

Carrie turned her face away dejectedly, not wanting to be seen by Baling in her miserable state.

Little did they know that Baling had already tasted too much.

"Carrie, don't be like this. You're a human being, without a doubt. You're a hero among humans. You're just a little stronger and more destructive. That's nothing."

"This isn't a human being? This is a terrifying monster. Do you know what a monster is?"

"I know, it looks like this." Half of Baling's body shed the disguise of human skin, revealing the golden straw and pure white bones inside.

"hiss!"

Carrie took a deep breath, her eyes wide open, staring at Baling in shock, her mind in turmoil. How could this happen? It's impossible, impossible!

"Then I'm a monster now too."

Baling activated his resurrection power and visibly turned back into a human. He then continued, "Or maybe it's like this!"

Translucent light butterflies surrounded them, emitting tiny fireflies, the flat halo glowed brightly, and the milky white holy light illuminated each other.

"Are you a human or a monster?"

Looking at the ever-changing Baling, Carrie's brain was overloaded and she became confused all of a sudden.

"If you consider yourself a monster, then I am a monster just like you. If you consider yourself human, then I can be both a human and an angel who saves and guides you. Of course, if you degenerate into a self-destructive, evil monster, then I will be yours."

"Then I can also be the Ultraman of Justice and send you on your final journey."

In the raging fire, Baling attacked in the form of Ultraman Oga.

"Well, Carrie, you, give me the answer now."

Baling returned to his original appearance, without urging, and waited quietly for Carrie's answer.

Is it up to her to choose her own path?

Carrie fell into deep thought, with all kinds of complicated thoughts flashing through her mind, but strangely, she was not uneasy at the moment, but instead had a sense of security that she had been missing in the past.

No matter what decision she made, there was someone by her side. Perhaps this was the answer she wanted.

After a long time, Carrie's eyes finally became firm, and she softly said her answer.

"I want to be a human being."

"What! It's too quiet, I can't hear it, I can't hear it at all."

"I!" Carrie took a deep breath and cried out loudly, "I want to be a human being!"

The sound of human beings echoes in the quiet forest.

Baling nodded in satisfaction: "Good, you look very energetic, that's right. Let's go, I'll take you home."

The two walked out of the forest one after the other and returned to where the car was parked.

Along the way, Carrie nervously asked various questions about future precautions. Baling taught her to live a normal life and to contact him immediately if she felt her magic power was strong enough to lift a car.

He's going to come over right now to unleash his energy... No, he's going to eliminate Carrie's troubles. Baling is a positive character, so how can he use a negative word?

……

into the night.

It is time for people to rest again. People fall asleep peacefully at night to eliminate the fatigue of the day and restore the energy they have consumed.

The next day, people can face new challenges with full energy.

The cycle repeats until death.

But in this process, good dreams or nightmares are never absent.

Dream on, dream on...

A sunny day.

Many children of wealthy local people attend this primary school.

And the little girl Emma happens to be one of them.

It is class time now and the children are listening attentively.

Emma, ​​who is an excellent student, is naturally the same. She has a serious attitude and sits there like a serious little adult.

There is an important thing today, especially for Emma.

Because another medal will be distributed to her.

Emma is so confident that she has won many awards, and this time is no exception.

The class teacher, Ellis, a plump black lady, was standing in the middle of the classroom and making a loud announcement to everyone.

"I declare that the winner of this essay competition, and also the recipient of first prize, is..."

At this point, Ellis's gaze stayed in Emma's direction. Emma understood something and immediately straightened her chest proudly, holding her head high, like a little swan singing to the sky.

She was ready, ready to receive everyone's applause and envious gazes.

Come on, say it!
"It's Baling Oga!" Teacher Ellis paused before continuing to say the name, then led the applause. "Let's give him a warm round of applause."

what!
Like being struck by lightning.

Emma's shy smile froze and slowly turned into a kitten-like face.

Amidst the warm applause of the classmates, Teacher Ellis took out a big golden medal and awarded it to Emma's deskmate, a little boy with black hair and black eyes.

suck--!
Her legs were shaking under the desk. Emma looked at her deskmate coldly, and her deep breathing showed her inner unrest.

Why! Why! Why!
What right do you have to take away my award! Damn black-haired brat, you deserve to die!
The desire to kill was rising, but for some reason, Emma suddenly shuddered, and the murderous intent quickly faded, as if she had touched a taboo in her heart. Emma was so scared that her legs were shaking for a moment.

It took her a long time to recover, and her murderous intent turned into unwilling anger and deep jealousy.

Especially when she heard what Teacher Ellis said next, her dissatisfaction became even more intense.

"Ms. Oga's essay is titled 'My Father the Governor.' Please give her a round of applause."

clap clap clap!
"Thank you everyone! Thank you everyone, thank you Teacher Ellis, thank you parents, thank you classmates..."

Baling stood up and showed everyone the golden medal while giving a speech to express his gratitude for the award.

"Now, let's invite Baling Oga to recite his award-winning essay for us. Students, please listen carefully and learn from his excellence."

"Ahem... My father is a great man, he..."

Teacher Ellis smiled with great satisfaction and nodded in approval at Baling, who was both excellent and humble.

But there was one person, a former top student, and of course, still a top student. She wanted to bite her back teeth to pieces, "Teacher Ellis, why is this happening?"
I'm clearly the No.1 in the class, but you just...

Woohoo, wow!
This is such an insult to Emma, ​​the ultimate insult!
