A faint itch tickled her wrist. Yu Zhizhi heard someone calling her name. She groggily opened her eyes and saw, on the stark white ceiling of the hospital room, the nearly transparent, half-beast form of a spider.
His body was entwined with white spider silk, suspended like some bizarre work of art.
'The Lord of Paradise!'
Yu Zhizhi opened her mouth, but she found that she couldn't seem to make a sound.
Compared to the last time she'd seen him so clearly, the Lord of Paradise before her now was barely there, like an ethereal phantom.
On the man's pale face, his mismatched eyes glowed faintly in the darkness. He stared wordlessly at the young Rabbit Clan female. After a long moment, he seemed to utter two words.
"...So far."
'So far?'
'What's so far?'
