391 AND HERE THEY COME

[WHY CAN'T I find that damned assassin?]

Jeno, who was sitting on the cube made of cloud, had been flying all over the area while covered with his mist to look for Xion. That bastard was too prideful to call for help. The fact that he sent them a distress signal was worrying.

[Did he encounter the crow that Princess Neoma warned us about?]

His thoughts were interrupted when a vast shadow cast over him, and it was followed by the loud caw-ing sound from above. When he looked up, he was surprised to see a group of crows quickly descending on him as if they were ready to attack him.

[They can see me?!]

He quickly pulled out his rifle and began to shoot the crows. To be honest, a decent marksman should have the sense to leave his spot once he released his first shot. It was to ensure that his location wouldn't be exposed to the enemies.
