"Evil Egg?" Hunter echoed, his frowned as he turned to the girl and asked, "No, what about it?"
The girl glanced around before replying. "There's a rumor… they say there's an Evil Egg which lurks in the darkness and eats people's spirits."
Hunter raised an eyebrow. The girl pursed her lips and continued, her voice tinged with fear.
"Well, when I peeked into Sorrowful's room… I saw a completely normal egg, kept there on a cloth on the table and Sorrowful was standing before it, speaking to it. I think it's the Evil Egg from the rumors."
Hunter burst into laughter. "What nonsense! You want me to believe that?"
The girl looked at him seriously, then said more loudly, "I'm not joking. I heard the Egg speak."
Hunter stopped laughing ad he tilted his head. "Okay," he said with a dry chuckle, "so what did the egg say?"
The girl clenched her teeth, then exhaled slowly. She looked at him and smiled
"The Evil Egg said to Sorrowful…" She paused, then added, "'Bring me Hunter Everblack's spirit.'"
