Chapter 525: The Big Show Begins!

(Unknown Location)

"Ladies and gentlemen! Freaks of all nature! Welcome to tonight's big show!" a loud voice entered Sophie's ears and caused the hybrid girl to frown.

She opened her eyes and found herself standing inside what could only be described as a gigantic tent.

The walls of the tent were red and white. There were rows upon rows of seats placed along the edges of the tent that formed a ring.

Sitting on the seats were thousands of identical looking clowns who stared at Sophie with expressions of barely disguised glee.

One of the clowns floated in the air above the arena and a card danced between his fingertips. 

He giggled madly and his laughter was hoarse and guttural. There was something inhuman about the voice that left his throat…

"Please welcome… today's new challenger! The magnificent! The spectacular! The one and only…" the clown grandly announced.

"Sophie Peterlor!"
