Chapter 31: Mommy Sybille
In the endless corridors of the manor, Ginny trotted along, barely noticing that Dante was no longer following her.
She turned around once. Then twice.
— "Mister Kang Soo Jin ?" No answer. She frowned, pouted, and squinted.
— "Ugh... come on, where the hell did he go now...?"
She tried activating the Soul Link. Nothing. As if the connection had been smothered.
Her brow furrowed. Not that she was panicking—well, maybe a little—but it was strange. The link had never been broken before.
Only one explanation : something here was blocking the connection.
Ginny sighed through her nose, crossed her arms—but then another sensation tickled her nostrils.
A thick, sweet scent. Fresh bread ? Meat ? Sugar ? Her stomach growled.
— "Well... the Soul Link may be busted, but my stomach still works just fine..."
Eyes half-closed, she followed the scent. It led her to a massive door. Without thinking, she pushed it open.
