Kapitel 96: Blackborough

"Heelp!"

A very distant, whisper-like scream made Yoichi open his eyes wide. He sat on the sand, trying to distinguish the dream from reality.

In the darkness, Ichiro's yellowish eyes shone like two small headlights. The Inoshuma had heard something too, being its mind connected to that of its tamer.

Yoichi gradually abandoned the dream world, and his hearing returned to its standard effectiveness. Rubbing his eyes, he looked at a hole on the wall that overlooked the outside, turning to his right.

"Aaah!" – when the second distant scream reached his ears, the young tamer jumped on his feet. He realized that those sounds were not part of a dream but were real and came from the village.

Without saying anything, he quickly ran to that destroyed window, clinging to an edge with his hand and leaning forward, trying to get a load of the outside.

The distant village of Blackborough was framed in that ruined wall full of moss. The distant screams came right from there.
