Chapter 218: Prancing Butterfly

The first attempt at touring the spiritual world came to an end the moment Chihiro finally brought us to one of the local inns.

There, right as we stepped over the threshold of the place, the somber mood, the extremely unpleasant feeling of mental and emotional separation, even all the doubts of what we were actually supposed to do in the spiritual world…

At least in my case, all of those things took a backseat, forced to the back of my head by the awe brought by everything about this place.

"It feels like…" I nearly voiced my impression, only to then press my lips together, opting to gatekeep the rest of what I wanted to say within the privacy of my mind. 'It feels like stepping into the world I could only read about in history books before.'

The inn, just like most of the other buildings in the border city, didn't rise above a single story, making up for the lack of verticality with just how far its grounds spread in every direction.
