The figure that had just coalesced transformed into a streak of dark light, speeding toward the ruins of a city.
"AHHH—!" A girl suddenly screamed in her sleep.
Her mouth hung open as she frantically gasped in a stream of purplish-black energy.
After what felt like an eternity, the black energy gradually dissipated.
The girl suddenly stood, gazing at the dark sky outside, a cold, sinister glint radiating from her eyes.
Her gaze slowly softened.
Until her face became completely expressionless.
Her roommate rolled over, muttering, "Yun Qing, what are you shouting for? It's the middle of the night. Aren't you going to sleep? So irritating!"
The girl's face was blank, her eyes still impassive as she stared out at the boundless darkness.
The corners of her lips curled up into a faint, involuntary smile.
It was an exceptionally sinister and strange smile...
Time crumbled to dust, slowly filling the ruts of bygone days.
「In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.」
