Chapter 76: Two gremlins

"Wake up..."

"Hey, wake up... wake up..."

A voice echoed in my ears, but it sounded very distant, almost as if it were trying to speak to me from a faraway place... opening my eyes... I looked around, blurry, confused, trying to sit up... frowning... my vision started to clear little by little, after a few seconds...

"Huhh??" Confused, I crawled back... my eyes wide open.

"Damn it! I'm not that ugly!" The creature in front of me frowned, irritated, scratching its head... taking a moment to calm down, and hearing its words without feeling any hint of a murderous intent, I breathed slowly, my eyes observing it carefully. It was very small, about half a meter tall, and... horrible, very ugly, with a huge head compared to its small body... plus a big belly with thin arms and legs... adjusting my throat, and its entire body was red: "Who are you?" I asked cautiously.
