Chapter 9
Translated by: ShinigamiTori
Vow
The cobblestone corridor leading from the auditorium to the staff building opened onto a flower-filled courtyard.
Lilacs were in full bloom. Next to them were the silver wattles with their beautiful whitish leaves and branches full of yellow flowers. Marigolds, windflower?s, daisies, and baby blue flowers filled the ground. It was like a carpet made of colorful flowers.
Swollen clematis buds were wrapped around the pillars of the domed pavilion. They would be in full bloom in a little while.
Soft blue sky, pleasant weather. On days like this, Sheila was tempted to cut her hunted prey into parts and made salted food for preservation.
While she was reminiscing about the noisy days in the village, a stern reprimand came from the front.
“You’re too slow. Walk a little faster, Sheila Danau.”
…. This situation made her want to escape reality.
“I’m sorry. I was thinking about my family back home.”
“It’s only been a couple of weeks since you parted. If you start talking like that now, you will have a hard time in the future.”
