章節 150: Beneath the moonlight [5]

The very air chilled. 

".....When was the last time you were scared?" 

Julien's voice layered, echoing in the air. 

Leon's steps came to a sudden halt. 

In that moment, his body stopped listening to him. Sweat started to form in his palms and his breathing started to quicken. 

"Haa... haa..." 

It all happened so suddenly that Leon had a hard time understanding what had happened. 

Before he knew it, Julien had already helped himself back up. 

He struggled to do so, but he was still able to get up. 

Julien's body was battered, and blood was leaking down from the cuts all over his face. He looked extremely frail. 

He looked like he'd topple over with just a touch. 

And yet, 

His body refused to move.

'Why?' 

"Looking at the way you look right now, perhaps you have." 

Julien's voice was like a quiet whisper. 

It smoothly transmitted in the air before entering his mind.
