Facing the Morning Sun (2/2)

With a stroke of his brush, Meng Chuan drew the World Entrance in the middle of the painting. A dense horde of demons poured out from the World Entrance and spread in all directions.

He slowly painted, starting with a rough outline.

He focused on one of the demons on the periphery of the spreading horde. It was a mantis demon. He drew it extremely carefully because it was the demon that had left the deepest impression on him when he was six.

He immersed himself in his painting, mainly focusing on the mantis demon and its pursuit of his family of three.

The father ran while carrying the child. The mother charged at the mantis demon with a sword.
