Chapter 467: A Reversed Story (2)
As always, nothing in this world came easy.
"Uuuurgh—!"
"Push harder!"
"I-I am trying!"
Baek Yu-Seol stood a short distance away, arms crossed, observing Pale Yellow Autumn Moon as she strained against the shimmering Persona Gate’s barrier. Her outstretched hand trembled with effort, her flushed face devoid of any bulging veins, as if her very essence were fighting against her. Yet, no matter how hard she tried, the barrier stood unmoved, an immovable wall defying her will.
"... Do you think this will even work?"
Florin asked with a worried expression, her eyes fixed on Pale Yellow Autumn Moon.
Despite gathering her resolve for the first time in centuries and deciding to act on her own will, determination alone wasn’t enough to solve everything in life.
"Honestly, this is about what I expected."
Baek Yu-Seol nodded calmly.
Pale Yellow Autumn Moon was a shadow of her former self, her strength nearly spent, her essence tarnished by the corruption of Fawn Prevernal Moon. To hope she could infuse enough energy into the barrier on her first attempt had been little more than wishful thinking.
