Chapitre 439: Confessional Hearing [2]

A lump formed in my throat. 

It kept me rooted on the spot. 

"...I,it's you isn't it?" 

His murky eyes flickered, gaining a certain clarity that made every hair on my body rise. His presence was undeniable. 

Although he looked old, he felt extremely powerful. 

'Who is he...?' 

No, I could guess who he was. 

But... Why? Why was he here? 

It was then that I recalled the first few words he spoke, and my expression tightened. 

'I knew I'd see you... My g-god.' 

I took a step back. 

Impossible! 

How did he know? It makes no—

"My L,lord...?" 

Standing up, the man smiled. His hands continued to shake as he approached me. I wanted to move away and run away from this place, but I found myself stuck once more. I couldn't move my body at all. 

He eventually appeared before me, and his entire body shook. 

"Yes, yes, it's you..." 

Drip! Drip...!
