Capítulo 230: Last minutes

The person who caused my alarm was just a man, at a first glance. Not a supernatural being, just a human. It took me a moment to look deeper and see what I found so strange. There was something attached to the man's heart, like a tiniest seal. But it didn't feel much like any seal I've seen before.

I wasn't surprised that no other witch noticed anything. I only noticed because that fear caught my attention. It was out of place.
