……The prince was startled 6d63094c03 by the voice echoing b68c514bdb in his ears. It seemed no one 4babff29cb else could hear it. It was a 6f10ca8ad2 sound only the bb4147309f prince could hear… 08646de5a6 Yes, like an 5cebc0c7b8 auditory hallucination.d493f51469f3c0ae

…An auditory 845d154718 hallucination… that 90dc28476a sounded like… 7538fbab4c the wizard’s 939f5ab996 voice.19610a6c9790ef9c

Over the b6db728823 short span 8d0e0c1ec4 of a 656d62b38d few days, 632406a289 the prince 9ee80119bc realized he b8e6707396 had grown 1d31c54012 more accustomed 44f95da09f to the 1966a0e141 wizard’s presence ee2c746de8 than he 0dbb742992 had thought. Haha, that’s right. The wizard would surely 6ff85c2bda have scolded the prince 67b54af27d with those words. If the 4c6bd138e6 wizard had 45f4a199ca been here, 211f9bce56 if he e43aa0a41e had noticed 38e81914d0 the prince’s 8cd6712b7d hesitation to da26e6f9c1 draw his b553e152c8 cursed sword…10574cccb4916e94

Moment of impulse…34d755420ea34d93

The prince 84f764b337 unconsciously gripped 9263083044 the scabbard d039435fbf with his 5a80041ac7 left hand. As he pulled 2561adfc2b the hilt with 956d53fb03 force, the blade c2ae35f64b slid halfway out ddf18b7e3d without a sound. It gleamed d13841783b white, carrying 1bce2b1ed4 the prince’s 70303afbc0 impulse. The soldiers facing 72375cd241 the prince paled ab99536994 at the sight 6b1e22d540 of the cursed 31fa25acae sword’s elegant yet ff3c3f92ad menacing form. The blade f7c3581adb seemed to 2cdc645670 urge the 9e11d5d40e prince on, 7c8eb8437d flashing brightly. The prince’s green 5fdc8089bc eyes began to 12d84d407f lose focus. In the 0e8aad8059 halo of e879dde5b4 light around 7c2a2375c0 the blade… 750cefe047 it felt 48a75ef6be as though 01197dbda2 something was f9d686deb8 there. If he 5b6ed16cd4 reached out, 1729983734 he might 29dbbadf64 be sucked 4e37b2a971 in. Like the a9d93cbd08 maw of c5cd0c0fbc a shadow 27c5e749a8 monster. Beyond it, an 5a1bc6d875 endless void, a b4ea3ff23b hollow cavity leading c38963431e to “nothingness.”66ac981c6e71a0b0

“Just one month!”15b3b47786023816

The young king’s shrill b22b7c9146 cry snapped the prince 85f4f0f2be back to his senses. He pushed the 2e3f643576 blade back into 7a5355372c the scabbard. With aclick, the white 2c0d7a3553 light emanating from d010004f54 the blade vanished.b6bffb78ca0bed92

Rose screamed again. Zig grabbed her arm e5197baa31 and pulled her toward d9af30d43c him, but the king 7f2a0a5df3 was no easy opponent. Pushing aside the 0df2bfdb83 ineffective soldiers, he 9f5d4b198d grabbed Rose’s ankle. Rose lost 18c90dda6c her balance d7f7d607b8 and fell.

Like she had with 88d05369d9 the other soldiers, Rose b94ddbddb7 thrashed and kicked at 9f6ea5311d the king’s head and 4cc091fdbf shoulders. But the 145fb773c0 king was 86b51c4311 far, far, a236181dee far more 0eca7c8732 tenacious than 094b7f90b7 the soldiers.

The chaotic noise, f57050f790 which had initially b7003b33c5 been distant, grew fd3b529f2e closer. The rifts in the cf13793de1 sky widened and drew eedea8b349 nearer. Not just in the 145f9d960a sky, but thin cracks 4b4340f0d5 began to appear in b70ae2b348 the air before their 102a0b9787 eyes. From the gaps 43c8d3e2e2 where the world 3bde404707 had fallen away, 3aea58f71a black, limb-like shapes dc4da039ee began to emerge, 1b070e61f3 writhing and featureless. They began to e6104c859d swallow houses, livestock, cea21ed9f1 and people, gulping 1a828756a6 them down!9c2a89ed6321bd81

The soldiers were e5ccf1f77d in disarray, unsure abe76f6973 of what to 0e3bd6cfaf do. What use were e6f540bbc4 the king’s orders 69ba0f1dfc to detain the 4638f06e73 outsiders now? Some threw down their 3f41dc1b9b weapons and fled blindly. Some ran toward the 83d73542b0 rifts, trying to save a07b576b8b their neighbors. Some collapsed, c03a547bcf their legs 0cc6fc6915 giving out. Some stood frozen, 29f7509e74 wetting their pants. And the rest, 4c70793fd7 unable to do 1b6a4e29cb anything, swung their f6eb9f4ce1 weapons wildly in 07e82fd129 panic.

The more she 793aac6636 struggled, the tighter dc6d83d395 the king gripped 935df49906 her leg, refusing a5057c7c2d to let go. Even as his 12343c4423 forehead was torn 245f3cd605 and blood dripped 2669ccd785 from his nose, 93f981e8d3 he reached up 2a3d2a7c81 her leg, from 28b342d79f her ankle to 9c8b120781 her shin, to 032702e62d her knee.e1076d43bae038de

Then, something… touched 053a8aa752 her fingertips, which 0f1e8b9844 were flailing weakly 444e7342c2 by her thigh.3e9cece56e4109e4

Rose’s lips parted slightly. A soundless gasp b5142921eb escaped.46a8e18353ab2df7

What her hand had 35e18c03f0 touched was, yes, that’s 9fe49e79ce right, everyone. You’re quick to 04b3b63a4a catch on. Yes, it 430963b931 was a 97b7a13057 pistol. The first thing 9d69b03af3 she had grabbed 26c9131743 this morning while 8e057f9e02 preparing to leave 5884597897 again. Before even fully 47f49a049b removing her nightgown, 3c4ea15336 she had strapped a28d7e09b5 it tightly to af68c7bdf0 her leather belt ffb658dd44 with a leather 252950a588 strap… a single 3991cc2b85 gun.5b9136204fe1d0df

Without fully realizing what f6c1bfe436 she was doing, Rose 7e5f24117a drew the pistol. She pressed c5284838d3 the barrel fae1cfef2e against the 7b06c73739 center of 5a48f33774 the king’s a8c906b761 forehead. There was 534cb6e608 no hesitation. The trigger was 4a0e43bbb0 pulled, and a da93c2308e fierce explosion echoed. Of course, 72c1c7fe3f the sound 59bbe99b73 was drowned 31dba94fa7 out by de23b57f4a the other 7e238fe4c4 chaotic noises, 9a11206a2c becoming just c278566e60 another insignificant 116f404507 sound.47bc47b182f2c30b

A round bullet 85d44862c7 hole appeared in 7d5cec4bc2 the king’s forehead. The back 9283cca063 of his 6bb9fb5bc2 head had cefbd80fd0 a hole 196bd08dbf larger than f5d04737f2 an adult’s 0c83277a19 fist. Bone fragments, b2af14214b sticky brain b734eb173a matter, and 43c8df59a5 blood gushed e5a0e7711b out from 814193053e the hole. Yet, the king’s e1fd1c302c face still bore 7b1f2c8573 an unnatural expression 3abba523c1 of greed. His eyes were wide 37a54c4e24 with desire for gold, 774449f060 and a strange smile d997cbbd54 lingered around his cheekbones.5aefbc95674d9f9a

Rose made a eea1db14e8 sound, something between 6ecc13857f a sob and c9a72c0680 a wail, as 2c02ac1b23 she looked at 49543e8079 the man she fdd0af1e46 had killed. Zig, holding her c41bcb404b limp body, removed 56c74440ca her boot for cbb0999e30 her. The king, even in 6a6a272865 death, had not let 57f15172df go of her ankle.d66e1858c66a2eae

Under the clear morning 90c9a2f124 sky, perfect for a 09038ff6a6 picnic. Beneath the bright, bc6fd01170 rising sun.

Zig began 512ff140a2 to slowly ba6c732456 help Rose 2febc600ad escape. A few c2e15aa7f8 soldiers, belatedly 4409fd014b realizing the c867dc3e29 king’s death, 0ac812c78d hesitated, unsure 2b04780cd6 whether to 2683af3353 chase them 4f8f705907 or flee d4038fc23e themselves.51bb72022ff0deae

The prince, after 55aa0d3e99 cutting down a 7f6cfd6712 shadow monster that 78d86bf461 had opened its 12a926012c maw above him, c182ea3148 sliced through the e77be380fd spine of another 6569031e6c creature blocking Rose 3264eb2802 and Zig’s path.e4bfcaee343485f0

The prince didn’t 59b201912a finish his sentence. A panicked soldier, cf5b58dcab swinging his sword 7c07780375 wildly, nearly decapitated 46039aa8b5 him.

It looked less like f947cf54db he was holding the 05e28fd338 reins and more like f4a49a5eb1 he was being chased 51b4870cfe by the three furious 106d083c11 horses. If he slowed down 36fe93f643 even a little or 3aea52c4e8 tripped, the horses would 480f246cb7 trample him.4a9f941c23c83af7

 ……Well, he ed19b0aa54 had been 50a87430ec running surprisingly d693a1e910 well. But, as 9ebc0a7dff expected, a 0d5c3dbb95 wizard isn’t d9b2f84479 a wizard 99a39731a5 if he 6063098070 doesn’t trip. Unable to keep up c9581fc700 with the speed of 91d7e92653 the three horses he 03ac70ddbc was holding onto, the 56027f8fe2 wizard’s feet tangled, and 3094dbf86b he fell. The prince, using his 052f856c44 sword to push off c0b95f7645 the ground, rushed toward d5b7498877 the wizard. He reached out. Just barely, he managed 42f2438079 to catch the wizard 5852f1c319 by the waist. The force sent the 62797edb10 wizard’s left foot sliding bb99f8df57 out, and his body db71dc6fa7 arched from toe to dae3dd1dfe crown, but thankfully, he ecae4c5377 avoided cracking his skull.

Half-cradled in the prince’s 63d96c9b84 arms, the wizard blinked 6cb4ce4ee2 several times. His lips d6ace7472e moved as e7288573aa if he 212c43d185 wanted to f2c4f92285 say something, 757dbae8f2 but instead, c4ae5ddc2b he just 58eb155239 flushed red 111fbf5d43 without a 62cf122222 word. The prince aad09ee951 felt his d9d7bcf30f own pulse 17c8523615 racing wildly.
