CHAPTER 37

On the other side, when Helek and Ryver step out of the mall along with the others, they are greeted by a dark, desolate road stretching ahead of them.

The silence of the night and the emptiness of the surroundings create an eerie atmosphere, but Helek remains unfazed.

The scene before him doesn't stir any fear or unease in his heart; it feels like just another moment to him, nothing out of the ordinary.

As they walk, Ken glances at Ryver and speaks casually, breaking the silence.

"I heard you got into a fight today. How are you feeling? The head injury wasn't too bad, was it?"

he asks, his tone showing a mix of concern and curiosity.

"I'm fine," Ryver replies briefly, his voice calm as he keeps his eyes ahead and continues walking without slowing down.

After a while, they come across a row of shops in the distance.

The faint light from the storefronts seems inviting, but there's an air of uncertainty surrounding the place.
