Herman was silent for a while, organizing his words in his mind, and then he looked at Kirk and said to Eugene,
"The city hall said it was a storm, but what we saw was something the world had never seen before."
Herman's words aroused Eugene's interest. Since he was a child, he loved to listen to all kinds of strange rumors. His brother's experience sounded very interesting.
Eugene's eyes sparkled, and he sat up straight, looking at Hermann with interest and said,
"Tell me quickly, is there anything supernatural happening? Did the Holy Light appear? Or is this a divine punishment for someone who blasphemed the Holy Light?"
Eugene rattled off a series of questions, but none of them were remotely close to the truth.
Hermann shook his head and sighed.
"Let me start from the beginning. At the beginning, strange things happened on the street, something we never imagined in our lifetime. Rats, cockroaches, and bedbugs were crawling all over the street, and creatures like a tide were fleeing out of the city. Even stray cats, dogs, and birds were fleeing out of the city."
"Ooooh, that must be spectacular!"
Eugene responded excitedly. He was already imagining the shocking scene.
"At first, we just thought there was going to be an earthquake, so we quickly packed our bags and left the city in Elphis' vehicle. By the way, Elphis is little Albert's godfather, a handsome businessman. He will come to Munihei to discuss electrical appliance business with us in the future, and I will introduce him to you then."
Hermann mentioned Elphis and introduced Eugene to his future business partner.
Eugene was not interested in this, he wanted to hear the sequel of the incident;
He interrupted Hermann's introduction and said impatiently,
"Hey, don't just talk about business, just finish your story."
Herman nodded, took a sip of black tea to moisten his throat and continued,
"As we were leaving Umr, a vortex appeared in the sky. A vortex that normally appears in water, but we could feel the evil at the center of the vortex even from a distance."
Kirk still feels scared when she recalls the scene at that time. She said, "It is a feeling that cannot be described in words. Perhaps, the word indescribable is very appropriate."
"Ohhh, tell me, what is that? A demon? A devil? Satan?"
Eugene was very curious about this occult knowledge.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Hermann shook their heads, and Hermann said,
“Although I haven’t seen its entity, the evil power is far more terrifying than what is described in the myth. It’s like you are diving alone in the deep sea, surrounded by darkness and silence. To put it in an exaggerated way, I believe that if you take a close look at it, you will lose your mind and go crazy.”
"That's really cool. Are there any other visions?" Eugene slapped his thigh excitedly after listening to Herman's story and continued to ask.
"Although we are sitting on the vehicle, we can still see a large number of meteor showers suddenly appearing in the sky. You know, meteor showers have both good and bad sides in legends, and I am sure that the meteor shower we saw is definitely a jinx that brings disaster." Kirk replied solemnly.
"Bad meteor shower? Are you talking about the unlucky star in Eastern mythology? And the star of disaster that is popular among the people?" Eugene asked curiously.
"We're not sure what it was, but the scene was spectacular. The stars in the night sky suddenly dimmed, and even the moon's pure white light was covered by the meteor shower. Only the position of Taurus was still shining," Hermann answered in detail.
"So what did you see when you returned to Umr City after escaping the disaster?" Eugene asked. This was his last question and the one he wanted to know the answer to the most.
Kirk didn't seem to want to answer this question, so he stood up and went to the bathroom alone.
Herman sighed, pressed his index finger between his brows, and slowly uttered four words, "Corpses everywhere."
Seeing that Hermann didn't want to recall the scene at that time, Eugene had to put aside his curiosity for the time being.
"Okay, I've asked the servants to heat up the water for you. Go take a bath first. Then we can have dinner."
Eugene said.
When Kirk came out of the bathroom, a white-haired old butler said respectfully to the Herman couple,
"I am the butler hired by Mr. Eugene. You can just call me Baird from now on. Please follow me."
Although the butler Baird was old, his suit was straight and the angle of his bow was exactly forty-five degrees. It was obvious that Eugene had put a lot of thought into choosing his butler.
Hermann looked at the old butler, who was very dignified and well-behaved, and asked,
"Where did Mr. Baird work before this?"
Baird was slightly stunned, then replied,
"I served the old Duke of Teutonic for more than 40 years. After the Duke of Teutonic passed away without an heir, I posted my advert at the local job market. I was spotted by Mr. Eugene and moved to his home. I have been working there for three years now."
Herman suddenly understood why Eugene chose the elderly Baird as his butler in such a crowded job market instead of other young butlers with good looks.
Baird had served the Duke of Teutonic for a long time, so naturally he knew many people from the upper class, and he was also able to arrange his life easily, with everything arranged neatly and orderly.
Following Baird, they went up to the bathroom on the second floor. Baird had already prepared clean clothes for them and left.
After a day of running around, Herman and Kirk were both a little tired.
With the perfect water temperature, the body that had been tired for a week was relieved.
The tense muscles relaxed in the warm embrace, and both of them not only relaxed physically, but also got a moment of peace and alone time.
Herman looked at Kirk, whose face was as pretty as a flower, and stroked her face gently, saying softly,
"you are so Beautiful."
The blushing beauty threw herself into Hermann's arms and gently bit Hermann's earlobe.
An ambiguous atmosphere spread in the bathroom, and pink soap bubbles floated in the air.
The sparkling surface of the soap bubbles reflected the playful candlelight, and ripples appeared on the water in the bathtub.
Baird prepared a loose-fitting style for Herman, as baggy as pajamas, and a cotton dress for Kirk, which was close-fitting and comfortable to wear; Kirk took Herman's arm and walked out of the bathroom with a red face.
