Aera stared at him, her eyes wide with disbelief. The words before her seemed too good to be true, too fantastical to be real. Doubt gnawed at her, whispering in her ear, questioning the authenticity of what lay before her. She gazed at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and skepticism. "Are you truly awake now?" she asked, her voice tinged with a hint of doubt. Aera's senses returned to her, and she mustered the courage to finally ask the question that had been lingering in her mind. Her cheeks were still tinged with a rosy hue, a telltale sign of the lingering embarrassment she felt. The memory of that impulsive kiss she had shared with Yujin played on a loop in her mind, causing her heart to flutter and her thoughts to scatter. How had she allowed herself to succumb to such a reflexive act? It was as if her body had acted independently, driven by an unseen force that she couldn't quite comprehend. The intensity of the moment had left her breathless, her senses heig

The question hung in the air, heavy with uncertainty. The dilemma had gnawed at their resolve.“So does this mean that no matter how fervently we endeavored to aid Yujn in reclaiming his consciousness, and restoring him to his former self, it would all be in vain? Would he inevitably succumb to his monstrous nature once more?” Robalt asked.The room fell silent, the weight of their shared apprehension palpable. Each person present grappled with their own doubts, and confusion. They had witnessed the transformation firsthand, the terrifying metamorphosis that had rendered Yujn unrecognizable. It had been a harrowing sight, one that had left an indelible mark on their minds, most especially Robalt. Yet, despite the odds stacked against them, they had refused to give up. They had rallied together, pooling their knowledge, their resources, their unwavering determination. They had delved into the depths of their understanding, seeking any glimmer of hope, any shred of insight that could

Aera stood there, her heart pounding in her chest, unable to fathom the words that had just escaped Doctor Karin's lips. The air around her seemed to still, as if time itself had frozen in that very moment. How could this be? How could reality twist and contort in such a way? Aera's mind raced, desperately searching for a logical explanation, but finding none. The world she thought she knew was slipping away, replaced by a surreal landscape of uncertainty and disbelief. Anticipation coursed through her veins as she yearned for the moment when Doctor Karin would, perhaps, alter her stance and align herself with her fervent desire to fix the broken pillar. Doctor Karin's inquiry ignited a flicker of hope within Aera. "Yes," Aera murmured, her voice barely audible. “Yes, it is," she added, her voice tinged with a hint of hope. The words hung in the air, a delicate thread connecting them in a moment of shared understanding. Aera's response was swift, her gaze fixing upon Doctor Karin a

The final words that Yujin uttered were barely audible before he fell into an eerie silence. It seemed as if the very air itself was holding its breath in expectation as the weight of the unspoken words hung heavy in the air. It was a steady rhythm of terror and disbelief that pounded in his chest as his heart raced. An oppressive haze of pressure pressed down on him as the weight of the terrible fate that had befallen his fellow students and even the faculty staff of the entire establishment pressed upon him like a weight. He was in a state of great shock because the gravity of the situation was so much greater than he had anticipated. The foul odor of death permeated the atmosphere, serving as a gloomy reminder of the bloodbath that had just taken place. It was a spooky sight to see dead bodies lying around the ground in such a disorganized manner. It was a massacre, the likes of which are only mentioned in the most sinister of stories in hushed tones. The beast, a hideous creatu
