Chapitre 269: Impacts

— December 7, 1512, Era Arani. —

"Huf! Huff! Come, father, run!" A little girl shouted to her father, who needed to use crutches to walk.

The man was doing his best, but still the shadow that followed him and his daughter was still very close. He could feel this closeness not by the noise, but by the shiver down his spine caused by the cold that the mysterious creature emitted.

"Run ahead, daughter! I'm right behind you, I just need to catch my breath a little..." The man stated.

The little girl hesitated to heed this order, but she remembered that her father once said that children who don't obey their parents are ugly. Because of this, she continued to run as far as she could down that long alley, however, it only took one look back for her to stop running again.
