The state of the mall was horrific—blood and gore spread across the destroyed first floor, people's bodies left crushed under rubble with expressions of pure terror. Julian squatted on the second-floor balcony, watching like a hawk. He tried to locate the monsters, but what he saw should have shocked him greatly—but it didn't.
'What's wrong with me?'
"Julian, are you alright?"
"Eh, Sena?"
The shadowy figure tilted her head with a faint smile.
Julian's voice twisted when the voice that spoke out from behind made him confused. The momentary visage of Sena appeared while wrapped in black spiked armour and a blood-red spear.
However, this was Umbra. My shade, Umbra! It had to be.
A dark and twisted thought started growing in my mind.
Because of the strange occurrences, but the more I noticed the similarities between Eclipsa, Umbra and the people I knew.
My confidence waned.
"Phew, forget it, mask yourself in shadows, okay?"
"Mm, I will make myself look like you!"
