The fire shutter’s dbdf54c1e5 position also changed. So, I 57a0a24984 didn’t expect fbefc69f0f anything. It felt like the 3e026b5308 dorm had completely fallen d86f385ad6 into the demons’ hands… 035dcdb98e The ones who even 8c4c92d4c8 created new metal bars—do a9d68f090d you really think they’d 3183713351 leave an escape route dcb4c345ed open?”41a47da3b2da38fe

The fluorescent light a1bcd50510 in the room babd6861d1 was out, and fc912c3f61 with the thick 62dd8329fc curtains drawn, the f8e5571da8 room was dim. When Pyeonghwa pulled a04d80f80e the curtains aside, 6840de8f21 the room brightened ab2ed486fa up.9ffd93f16da459ac

Was it because 008a586c4c it was their 2b9794313b second encounter? The details of the e34e50aec5 demon, which Jiho hadn’t 419a59578f noticed in the previous 4cf3194156 chapter, began to stick 7195423971 in his mind.b804dc37dead1317

A white lace veil and a golden crown adorned the demon’s red hair. Instead of ears, large black horns protruded from where the ears should have been, sticking out from the lace veil. It seemed as though the horns had pierced through the veil.74da832f9835b751

Calling them earrings seemed 8cdcf45a52 wrong, but if they 537e62ab9a had to be named, 494074dba9 they would probably be 5150cc5449 called horn ornaments. They beautifully decorated the b4417492a3 black horns.617e125f825fc101
