Chapter 627: Chapter 627 - The stranger

"We are surrounded," Sara spoke up, just as a shadowy silhouette appeared on the horizon, visible to all.

*Clap!* *Clap!* *Clap!*

Following her words, the sound of distant clapping could be heard. Turning towards the source both Sara and old man Captain Don frowned seeing it was coming from the seemingly lonesome silhouette on the horizon. 

A faint chuckle followed in between the clapping sounds, pleasant to the ear, clear and light. The figure seemed blithe and even amused as if it could clearly hear the purple-haired girl's whispers and found a great deal of joy in it.

Seconds passed as the figure slowly, calmly approached the two, clapping and chuckling along the way. Eventually, just as his figure was slowly taking definite shape and the obscurity of the darkness had begun to waft away, his figure was slowly, gradually revealed to the team.
