Chapter 110

Seol's shoulders looked heavy.

Fwirl!

Karen and Karuna summoned themselves regardless of Seol's intent.

"......"

The two knights saw Mirei lying in front of Seol like she was asleep.

They also noticed how her body was covered in arrows.

As the shadow, the black parts of her body, disappeared, Mirei's rotted corpse revealed itself.

Karuna then stepped forth and carefully lifted Mirei's corpse.

"Where should I move her, Master?"

"Karuna."

"Should we not bury her."

"We should."

All that could have served as a memory was utterly destroyed. Not only was the house made of trees destroyed, but so were the nearby surroundings.

Still, Seol found a suitable place and buried her there.

Seol then created a small grave before placing a broken wood fragment on top of it. He then wrote the names 'Mirei' and 'Sodin' on the piece of wood.

"What should we do about him? Leaving him for the animals to feast on is a bit... much."

"Let's just bury him too while we are at it."

Karen then carried Malacus's corpse over.

Seol didn't particularly feel anything about the Shadow Hunters, but he was interested in Malacus, who died in front of him.

What especially interested him were his final words.

- Because you Shadow Summoners took my parents, my eyes, everything in my life... the only thing I had left was Dir. To me, who lost light, he became it.

'You Shadow Summoners... what did the Shadow Summoner do to him?"

Regardless of whatever hidden backstory Malacus had, he was Seol's enemy in the end. Not only that, but he also killed his helper, Mirei.

Obviously, Mirei didn't have much left to live in the first place, but it was still true he was the reason she died.

Seol didn't feel sympathetic for his enemy.

It was just that Malacus's strange feeling lingered.

How did Malacus become so twisted?

"I have no clue."

"Master, your body... are you... alright?"

"Ah, this?"

Fwirl...

Seol and Jamad separated in an instant.

[You exit the Night Crow form.]

[Your class is changed to Shadow Summoner.]

Jamad cracked his neck as if his body felt tight.

"Moving someone else's body is more tiring than I thought."

"I'll try to move myself next time."

"Do you think that would be possible?"

"My senses felt completely different. I would need some time to adjust to it, but I can't let you control me forever."

"Do whatever you please."

Karuna then spoke.

"Mirei has left us. It's a shame."
