Bab 1331: Shadow World

Umbra walked through the darkness, one paw in front of the other, unafraid of the nothingness before her, for this was her domain.

The moment the people outside had passed through the door, they had entered the Shadow World that Umbra cast over the entire shop. She did so every night in case someone unwanted walked in.

Today, someone had.

She could tell it was not someone she knew, and so she walked on, going to meet them.

The Shadow world was large, almost unending. One could walk for thousands of meters here and barely take a single step outside.

Umbra could skim through this place too, like walking through a dream that one could control, forcing the world around her to succumb to her demands. But today she wanted to walk through.

Since she knew there was nobody important trapped inside, she could walk through without worrying about the people.
