Chapter 154: The Calamity king

Ethan's heart pounded in his chest as he lay on the floor, paralyzed by fear and shock, witnessing his sister Lisa's unsettling struggle. She moved erratically, crawling towards him and then suddenly pushing herself back as if battling an unseen force.

With a piercing scream, Lisa's urgent voice brought him back to reality. "Run!" she yelled again, her eyes filled with terror.

Ignoring the pain from the blood oozing from his wounded thighs, Ethan mustered his strength and rose to his feet. He knew he had to escape this nightmarish scene. Desperately, he sprinted toward the room's exit, his heart racing faster than his feet.

But to his horror, an invisible barrier halted his escape. A force field, seemingly conjured by the enigmatic Rita, stood between him and freedom. Rita stood on the other side, her intense gaze fixed on him, emanating an aura of power.

Trapped and cornered, Little Ethan's mind raced, seeking any glimmer of hope in this dire situation.
