The place was so crowded with people that there was no room to even step.

The countless waves of existence stretched towards only one thing, shouting out one person's name.

He slowly turned his head and met Carl's eyes.

Carl couldn't even make out the outline of his face, but he could clearly feel that he was looking at him and smiling.
