Chapter 97: The Meeting with Echidna
Noah and the Crow appeared in a ruined, shattered temple.
Leona was nowhere to be seen. Only Noah had been permitted to come.
He didn’t mind. In fact, it was better this way—Leona’s presence would have been a burden if he needed to escape should things go wrong.
The temple lived up to its name. It was shattered—so fragile that it seemed as though a single touch would cause it to collapse completely.
"Let’s go," the Crow said, walking ahead. "We’ve wasted enough time."
Without hesitation, she led the way toward the heart of the temple.
Noah followed silently.
Though he felt relatively relaxed after signing the soul contract, he remained ready to act at any moment.
When they arrived at the temple’s center, Noah found himself standing before a tall, crumbling statue.
It depicted a woman—with horns and wings, her body curvy, her figure statuesque.
