Chapter 150: Return (2)
[What a pity, if I had delayed it just a little longer, it would have all been over. Truly unfortunate]
As Loria’s voice clearly echoed in his ears, the world came to a halt.
The world stopped as if someone had pressed the ESC button in a game, pausing everything.
The Hero King, who had been smiling at him in disbelief, froze like a statue, and everyone outside the terrace also came to a stop.
[Ah- really. Should I have just forced it to stop in the middle?]
Loria’s voice continued to be heard.
As if she was unaffected by this frozen world.
[Well, if I had forced it to stop, you would have noticed... In the end, this was bound to happen the moment you met the merchant and got the elixir~]
She muttered to herself as if blaming her mistake, but at the same time, consoling herself, as if there was nothing she could have done.
