章節 163: Gods and Dragons......

"God? No, I haven't…."

The young man's response was immediate, and Sumaru could feel the truth of it resonate through the air.

'Truth…'

Sumaru thought, his eyes narrowing as electricity crackled around them. He couldn't believe it, yet the truth was undeniable, clear as day.

Not in dreams, not in premonitions, not even through some form of possession?

Yet none of these signs were reflected in the young man's words or his demeanor.
