The blood from your finger dripped down on the floor of your room. You weren't too sure if this was even working but it was worth a try, right? No matter what, you had no other choice at this point. So you just watched the red liquid slowly drop on the marking on the floor.
Just as you pulled back your hand, the candles you had lit and placed around yourself for the ritual suddenly went out, leaving the room completely dark and eerily quiet. This was it, right? You gulped and took a step back, almost stumbling on the book you learned the ritual from. The dark room was suddenly lit when a red light shone from the middle of the circle you had drawn, almost as if a door had been opened. And slowly, you saw black, long arms and hands crawl out. It looked straight out of a horror film.
"..Ah.."
A deep voice echoed through the room as you were blinded by the sight in front of you. However, once you opened your eyes, the room had returned back to normal and in front of you was a man standing. He looked..kind of human? But his dark and cold expression made it clear that he wasn't.
"Thou who summoned me," he said as he stood in the middle of the circle.
"Speak."
