Knees falling to the ground with a gloomy tint to your eyes.
Sana walked away from you.
Yeji, on your side was muttering a bunch of words but you didn't consider to listen.
You frowned and bit your lower lip until the blood drips down.
What now? Sana is no longer in our side. The massacre in the village is probably not done. More and more from Jacksult Cult might keep attacking us in this loop... How?
How can I get out of this.....?!!
Yeji sharply planted her foot down on your fingers pressing into the ground. "You're so rude for not listening to what I’ve said,"
"Arrugh!" You screamed in pain, your voice echoing with raw agony. Yeji kept her foot firmly on your fingers until you were forced to meet her gaze. "Stop it! You damn devils!! Why...?! WHY ARE YOU DOING ALL THIS?!"
Yeji let out a resigned sigh, her demeanor momentarily softening as she seemed to react to your distress. "You should never call a woman that. It really hurts,"
"Screw you...!!" your voice reeling with rage. You dug your nails into the rough texture of the ground, leaving visible scratches as you shot a glare of pure hatred in Yeji's direction.
"Just like that~ I love that eyes of yours! I want to display those eyeballs in my bedroom~" Yeji grabbed on my shoulder as she crouched down. "Come with me. "
"I'll protect you," she whispered, her voice eerie yet earnest. Despite the uncomfortable tone, Yeji wasn’t being sarcastic. There was no malice in her words, they were sincere and carried the weight of a genuine promise.
But... your whole body trembles.
You stood on your own. "I have to go back.."
"Hm? " Yeji was confused.
"I am separated from Mina and the others... I need to go back to them..." you mumbled, your voice barely a whisper as you grappled with a deep emotional crisis and mental breakdown.
Yeji observed you closely, noting the obvious pain and distress. She was puzzled by how you managed to form coherent words despite the overwhelming sorrow and turmoil you were experiencing.
"It's too late to go back," Yeji said.
"... Huh? "
"They're all dead."
The news made your heart stopped. There's an intense pain that made you want to cry until your throat broke and tears into blood.
The terror of losing everything. But you'll never believe it unless you see it for yourself.
"You're lying aren't you.. ? "
"You're shaking, fufuh. That's cute~" Yeji chuckled. "This is all because you didn't do anything. The Ilsun Village... is wiped out, "
You don't believe it.
You don't believe it.
You don't. But you're shuddering in fear.
You ran back.
"H-hey! " Yeji was surprised. You probably have no idea how far off you are from them.
ーits my fault...! it's my fault! everyone... it's all my fault!! it's my fault. please be alive, Mina! otherwise... the promise Sana made for me will be for nothing!!
You followed the direction of the smoke rising from the depressing village. You had been running for a while that you almost forgot this forest was filled with Tzuyu's trap.
