章 189: Light and Darkness Interlude

As the final breath of the monstrous creature left its body, Susan's eyes widened, her entire being gripped by the awe and disbelief of what she had just witnessed.

The creature—once a terror that had ravaged the carriage she had been riding in, devouring every soul aboard—now lay lifeless on the ground.

A massive sword made of pure light was lodged deep into its skull, the source of its demise.

This was the same monster that had effortlessly torn through the hired guards meant to protect her family, a beast of unspeakable strength that not even the most experienced among their protectors could fend off.

It had slaughtered everyone—her family, the passengers, even the horses—and it had done so with a savage, unrelenting hunger.

Susan had watched, helpless, as the monster consumed her loved ones in front of her eyes, their screams echoing in her mind.
