Chapter 112- Intruders (2)
Laris looked at the area where the demon had suddenly appeared. The scene repeatedly played in his head before a bad premonition struck him. He did not know what but he felt like something was awry.
The sudden appearance of the girl, her ridiculous agility that completely contrasted with her race that had low combat potential, and her disappearance amidst the flames. Up until the mysterious appearance of the demon, everything was unusual.
The more Laris thought, the more he felt like he was missing something. The foreboding feeling he had from the beginning, was starting to become thicker and thicker. " Why would the girl who was able to escape from them once decide to show herself once again?".
No matter how he thought about it, it didn't make sense. To her, they should be a source of her trauma and given her age, there was no way she would be able to overcome that come in front of them once again. He was missing something... something very crucial.
