章 187: Dead yet?

[Third Person View]

The Herbal Emporium's atmosphere underwent a chilling transformation as Ren's lifeless body descended gracefully to the floor, and the ensuing soft thud was a somber punctuation to the unfolding tragedy. Silence wrapped around the shop like a heavy shroud, amplifying the gravity of the moment and infusing the air with an almost palpable sense of unease.
