Adapting- Mutating- Evolving

"My face? What's wrong with my face?"

Rudy turned to the side mirror of the car to see what Lilim was surprised about. However, before he could see himself, he had a sudden pain in his head.

"Argh." He even groaned in pain, which was rare for him as even after bearing unbearable pain many times, he had never shown a sign of pain on his face.

He grabbed his head in his hands and ran towards the forest.

"Hey! Are you okay?!" Lilim yelled and chased after Rudy.

She ran into the forest, but suddenly, a heavy wave of wind sent her flying to the car. Luckily, the car wasn't damaged as it was armored, but everything else was destroyed.

When Lilim looked back into the forest, all the trees were burned to ashes, and the ground had shattered completely.

"Daddy!"

Lilim rushed into the forest despite her fears. Her body was trembling, and her legs wouldn't stop shaking as she ran further into the woods.
