章節 306: Deadweight

[What is that...thing?!] Arsinoe's breath hitched in her throat. 

The creature was so unusual that she wondered how it had lived, or breathed. Perhaps it never did and only stayed within the fortress until it met with the forceful blow that killed it.

[I thought so too, until I saw it.] Morgana replied.

Arsinoe sighed. [So, which tunnel do you think leads to their Queen.]
