"Your power of illusion is really a great thing."
"Your [Caress of Death] is nothing simple as well."
In a desolate corner of the Redscale forest, a young woman and young man were standing, talking to each other. Although the cold expression and few words from the woman were off-putting, the atmosphere between them could have been said to be quite harmonious.
But… that is only if you choose to ignore the corpse of a beast lying at the feet of the young woman, slowly being devoured by her shadow.
Small snake-like tentacles would rise up from it and stab into the corpse, removing a chunk of its body.
Then another one would stab the same place, injecting it with a weird energy.
Bit by bit, the whole body was consumed by her shadow until nothing was left.
"The process is quite long." Jinn let out a sigh as he counted the minutes it took for a body to be devoured. 'Almost 20 minutes… So long.'
Evelyn simply nodded as her shadow finally returned to normal.
