บท 338: Chapter 338- Diana's POV

The garden was quiet, serene, its beauty mocking me as I arrived.

The moonlight bathed everything in silver, a surreal glow that felt both soft and suffocating.

The air was sweet, laced with the intoxicating scent of exotic blooms, but all I could taste was bitterness.

Bitterness, because I knew—oh, I knew—this was where he was.

My Ryuk.

My everything.

My chest heaved with anticipation as I pressed forward, my fingers tightening around the fabric of my skirt.

The artifact's hum still echoed faintly in my ears, promising me the connection was perfect, flawless.

I was here.

With him.

I would see him, touch him, feel him.

But then I heard it.

"HNNGHH~! Ahn! R-Rui Ke… i-it's tearing... me!"

Her voice.

The sound hit me like a dagger to the chest, sharp and cold and unforgiving.

My breath caught, my heart stumbling as if it had been struck.
