Chapter 4: Mercenary A (3)
Whirl.
My head soared through the air.
In an instant, an incredibly accelerated thought process led me to observe the surreal sight below.
My field of vision, now much higher than usual, spun as if in a dizzying whirl, capturing the surrounding scene ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ like a panoramic view.
The torso of my body—without its head.
The man’s face, wearing a self-assured grin.
Behind him, a woman with optical camouflage, observing the situation.
And then, Aria’s shocked expression, her skin still healthy and whole.
"Wow, I’ve never seen Aria look so surprised..."
I couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly at the sight of Aria’s genuinely shocked face.
The Aria I knew was always calm and composed, but now her eyes were wide open, and her mouth slightly agape—a rare sight.
