Chapitre 449: Dead Village

After consoling the kid until no more tears left his body, Astaroth promised him he would handle the village as long as he handled the portal. Silent Light had weakly nodded, no longer motivated to do his task.

But it still needed to be done.

"Alright. When we get near the center of the village, I will run forward. I will clear the path for you, and you get to the portal. It looks like it's underground, so I'm guessing at the bottom of their well. Just jump down, it's not too deep. Can you do that?"

Silent looked at Astaroth, his eyes still puffy, and nodded meekly. The latter didn't like seeing him like this.

'I guess I should tell Morticia to talk with him when he logs out. Good thing his sister is a shrink.'

The teenager and the man both left the small hill they had been on and walked cautiously toward the deserted village outskirts. As soon as they walked into the thick miasma, Astaroth could feel they were being observed.
