Chapter 39: Xal’veth
Fire...
Fire was everywhere...
From a distance, this place looked like a sea of flames swallowing the entire tiny village whole.
But unlike before, the cries, the screams, the pleas for help had all completely vanished.
Only silence remained, along with the sound of fire consuming everything.
Up in the sky, two figures in white robes with golden trim floated, their robes adorned with patterns resembling patches of dark mist.
Yes, they were Vladirovic and Elisova.
They hovered in midair, gazing down at the sea of fire below, their masks hiding their faces so no one could see what expressions they wore at that moment.
A mysterious, sinister, yet incomparably majestic and divine voice echoed in their ears.
"Anomaly... Lathel..."
Upon hearing the voice, Elisova and Vladirovic both bowed respectfully, one hand placed over their chest, the other behind their back.
