Logically speaking, the person in front of him was his savior and a very beautiful girl. From any perspective, he should feel a sense of gratitude and goodwill towards her. However, the boy had no such thoughts. On the contrary, looking at the girl in front of him was like seeing a nameless monster wearing a human skin, imitating human behavior, yet clearly not human.
And her eyes!
From start to finish, the girl never looked at them directly. It felt like although she was facing this way, her gaze was vacant, as if she was staring mindlessly at empty air. Her eyes showed no focus, and one couldn't tell what she was actually looking at.
But, regardless, his crisis was finally over!
Thinking of this, the boy mustered his strength to stand up and bowed to the girl in gratitude.
"Thank you for saving me, um… I…"
"Hmm?"
Hearing the boy's voice, the girl seemed to finally notice him. She leaned in towards him, staring, then grabbed his hand abruptly.
"Come with me."
