Chapter 230: Opening The Doors

"Please, Riley Ross! Find yourself in all of this chaos!"

"..."

And like a wind that suddenly stopped blowing the trees, the screams Fred was letting out through the entire neighborhood instantly ceased; his mouth, releasing a foam that was enough to drown him from the inside; fortunately for him, he landed on his sides when Riley released him.

"Find myself… in all of this chaos?"

Riley then lightly waved his hand; and as he did so, Fred's body slid away– making space for Riley to freely walk towards where V was standing; his steps, seemingly taking their time to reach V.

V, who was seeing Riley walk ever closer to him at a very slow pace, could not help but take in a small gulp. She had noticed it before, but seeing Riley walk was a surreal sight in itself. It's almost as if he didn't belong; not in a figurative way… but quite literally and physically.
