Chapter 90: Scheleth’s Peril
[The Same Day, Evening]
[The Slums, Lower City, Western Lueurre]
Just a day had passed since the terrorist attack, it's scars still digging deep into the population of Lueurre.
Yes, the awakening of the divine tree, Atlas, restored those who had been injured while becoming the pillar of support that many needed, but an attack as fierce as that couldn't be forgotten in just a nightfall.
Especially for those who lost someone.
Hence, the empty streets all over the city. Of course, a whole city can't just be 'closed off' just like that, so there were the bare minimum numbers present to keep it functioning, but the ambiance and crowd from two days prior were nowhere to be seen.
Though, that wasn't the case for every part of the city.
The slums, for example, were the same as before, its people unaffected, too busy with their own struggles.
As such, finding the people whose names the tree girl had given wasn't an easy task, especially given the complex layout of the slums.
