Chapter 489: One Bathed In Blood

In preparation for the Culling of the Voiceless moments from starting, countless Voiceless gathered inside the Pit of Culling. 

The sodden sand had not yet recovered from the previous Culling, which created several small crimson puddles whenever the Voiceless shifted their weight.

The lack of absorption told Kieran the previous Culling had either included more victims, meaning the followers of the Order gathered large amounts of unfortunate children, or… the Pit of Culling had reached a saturation point.

The bloodthirsty grains of sand could no longer absorb blood anymore. 

Compared to his two other experiences, Kieran was deathly still and undisturbed by the scene before him. His presence gave off the impression of a sheathed blade, whose dangerous qualities remained tucked away from notice.
