Chapter 63: Hannes City

When will you hatch? Adam gently caressed the gray-scaled egg on his lap with a dispirited look. It had been more than half a year since he'd acquired this egg in the Spirit World.

Except from the time when it had called out to him, it had been completely silent ever since. No matter how much Adam tried to communicate with the thing inside the egg, it just wouldn't reply.

It felt as if the creature inside the egg had gone into a deep slumber.

"Look, Adam!" Edward's excited voice entered Adam's ears. The youth gently took the egg back inside his spirit sea. There, it comfortably lay on one of the green leaves, nestled against the petals.
