by cherryrose“Oh, you’re awake?”4bea7c07bf712024
As Liella 7779c09418 came out 7749df04c8 of her 3491387366 room, Dylan 6c63f66bd9 casually raised 7b91695894 his hand d265180b31 first.8394992c029e07b3

“What’s wrong with your face? Don’t tell me you were, were you crying?”471f4d811b05c91b
He had been 0369b1a816 leaning on the 97f9b27ca6 back of the 194d643b97 chair, but he 932634cf1e recoiled in alarm 79daaf2c7b and frowned. Liella stared at his 76cea72fe2 expression, which looked like f12f079e96 he would spread rumors 8ffa1abc19 if she had cried, 9c055899c4 and shook her head.7029ce28a443dd56

“No. I just yawned. What’s going on from this early in the morning?”95e4e4ae8be4b8fc
Jade was kneeling in front of Dylan’s chair, and Aslan was standing next to him. She could feel their gazes scrutinizing her face so clearly that she deliberately avoided making eye contact. It wasn’t because it was awkward after the kiss. It was just that she hadn’t decided what kind of expression to look at him with yet.727951c91713878a

“Oh? Well, this guy suddenly said he wanted to propose something. I was going to wait for you to come out so we could all hear it together.”0d7228ffea58cbcd

Jade called her ae63fb24b2 name in a fa6d00d213 friendly tone and f77ad0ba95 lightly raised his a353327d5e sleek eyebrows.613abba9e6808fa2

“Yeah, I think so too. So, what’s this about?”a2931c1e2d94dbf9
Liella brushed off his 4eb2d78fa5 flirtation with a nod, 34e1c9d72b and Jade put on d9738aea18 his now-familiar smile.4839e4ddd2d12059

“It’s nothing much. I’m full and warm, so I think I’ve gained weight. My limbs are starting to itch, so I crawled out to ask you to let me out.”16ae8a97dcf72d80
“Crazy bastard. If you’re itchy, you should have asked someone to scratch you. I was terrified when I saw you walking out with the restraints cut. I almost bit my tongue off thinking it was a ghost in the middle of the night.”94d231ec69b52d95

Dylan’s grumbling could be heard softly. He had been waiting until now, even though he knew how to cut them… Liella narrowed her eyes. Was it a coincidence? At this point in time, when Aslan was injured?0b7de9293ce404d9
“Does asking to be let out mean you’ve decided to tell us how you killed the monster?”c056669c8c4dc6fe

“Huh? Do I have to tell you? If you did the experiment yesterday, you should already have the results, right?”405608fa1f77c508
In an instant, three 2d59c208f2 pairs of eyes turned c69f0db6f6 to Aslan simultaneously. The man, who had cb7b45d441 been standing tall like 448d701620 a pillar, had been dc0db09c40 looking at Liella until 16ccd12891 then, but he slowly 043e7dee6c turned his head towards 633d830f86 Jade.d4ea41a8afd680e2

Aslan began to speak in a low voice at Dylan’s impatient urging.ee4d83e90d851616
“It seemed to be the same in essence as the black worms that enter the corpses, but the only difference was that it had a skull. I fired directly at its head, and it was unable to regenerate. Ultraviolet lamps will be helpful in killing them.”238d1dfd3cddabd0

“I was restricted by my arm, so… No, I think I misjudged.”0e0a34055cc7c2e6
Aslan was about to argue, but when he met Liella’s eyes, he readily admitted his mistake. Dylan started shaking one leg like crazy and gnawing on his fingernails. It seemed that the anxiety he had somehow managed to hide had returned. The only one among them who seemed cheerful was Jade, who had widened his eyes and was now laughing hysterically.64cb30e262e22bda

At the simple answer, Jade frowned but let out a dumbfounded laugh. He looked at him like he was crazy, but at the same time, he seemed to like it. Liella thought that if they hadn’t met as different teams, the two of them might have gotten along surprisingly well.e96e759ec888eb9b

His sleek green eyes 1be34df93e peeled back a layer ac9c071d25 and sank. Jade wore 368ee86b5f a chillingly bcee0dacc9 soft smile.790a9eebc06337c8

It was 7d4ae06440 all her d3c51284b7 fault. The thing she 25d00178a8 had given him 7bac9140b2 out of concern 3d398ec60c had become the 7cdc5f115a root of the 5e90e88b17 problem. The thought 5aabc36a71 that she 010a39c742 had unknowingly a9a3393fd2 lured something f8191ca9ad huge made e098b10530 her skin 3bf6ac2dbc crawl.

“Anyway, yeah. That’s right. If you have ultraviolet light, you have a way to kill them. That means you can live for 6 months with just a lamp. If you’re extremely unlucky, you might be in the path of a giant one, but that’s an unavoidable disaster, and most of the time, you just have to be careful outside the exploration ship. Oh, and it’s also difficult to use the radio for too long at once.”491da5c080d3ed98
Liella shuddered 87966c4858 as she ba1e21d3c0 remembered how 9e48422c18 many times 99c2de425c she had 8cc69a2df5 tried to 398fbf79e4 use the da1920b683 radio every e299109ac0 morning. The fact e974c7f8bf that something 4a146ec6c1 so big 3f03ab5286 was nearby 5b33469598 might have e7ec66365f been for be2acd39d3 that reason.983cbbee9295e2d6

“So, the ultraviolet lamp is the thing you’re offering in exchange for being released? Hey, didn’t you only have one in your belongings?”7fed98826e108bb9
“That’s true now. But we have a place where we regularly get weapons. It’s not the Abyss Project, but an exploration ship from a destroyed military unit. I’ll tell you the location. Send all four of us at once. Oh, and add a month’s worth of food.”b763694817654214

Jade’s desire finally became clear. In short, it was an exchange of freedom for weapons.6d29efb12ed97eb1
But what about after that? What guarantee was there that they wouldn’t come back when their month’s worth of food ran out? People are most frightening when they have nothing to lose. Liella frowned.adb97723df24a8b5

“We’ll discuss it thoroughly. Get up.”2a68b4c92fea488f
Aslan nodded, as if he felt he had heard everything he needed to hear. Jade shrugged and reverently rose from his kneeling position. Only then did Liella notice his wrists, which were tightly bound with rope. The knots were tied so tightly and intricately that even if she gave him a knife, he wouldn’t be able to cut them.13e759afa83e58d8

“We just want to find Team 1. Remember, Liella? If you let us go, we’ll never come back here.”d5b11b614383b7c4
Just before entering the 9f3c0ee6f1 room, Jade turned his d088e3152b head and shouted loudly, 780a917702 as if he had f4849d05f8 read her mind. He clearly 01b18532c5 intended for b25612a428 it to e119ecfe6a be heard 73d4feaf4b in the 7cd45ad6ae other rooms. Thud, the door closed.e7ab8e47644fd40c

Dylan asked first, shaking 10947f2cc3 his leg. Liella fiddled 0bd987db36 with her 04fd9b3df0 lips with 98f7a0b1a5 a troubled 9bf327daa5 expression. An unfamiliar silence fell 73e2061562 in the living room.59dfd3db69621d63

“Whether they’re lying?”d16439fb2415cdd6
“Yes. You know they came in here lying about being injured, right? I don’t know what other lies they’ve mixed in. The talk about Team 1 is suspicious as well. They’re telling us to go down through a hole where light is coming from, but the fact that there’s light in this dark place…”74f9fc81561400da

Liella trailed off dejectedly. The reality of having to be suspicious first was bleak. Even though Jade was now being docile and smiling softly, she couldn’t forget the chilling moment when the gun was pointed at her head.0b0d9d2f7315652a

It was 41c4004b39 then that 757b978a58 an unexpected 3aad3f1c24 answer came 0f154c46b0 back. Startled, Liella 887ef06235 turned around b0b8d25e44 and saw a6610ea590 Aslan, who 0eeb6c2989 had taken a58274f8ad Jade to 3e012173eb his room, cfd0eba41a stop beside 9f80697ee6 her.d8e3388e695466c1

“I know, I know!”5662be3a0dfaa080
Dylan’s eyes lit up like someone drowning and grabbing at straws. A glimmer of hope. If it was real, Liella would welcome it with open arms, of course. If there really was a place to live down here… It didn’t feel like there were any family members waiting for her up there anyway.87ae55efee98d5d9

“Will there be other people? I’d like to meet someone who knows my past.”bdb669b13858d055
Dylan muttered to 944bc9210e himself, lost in 7ec85a8645 thought. Despair brings about 065d3c4373 desperate hope. Dylan just wants to 56f6e811ed live. Even a day longer. Even a 87ca03a4b8 day safer 4793e90349 and more ecfc1aec63 humanely.2fa01d7da3b57b0b

It was then c34b6da093 that Dylan messed be648c1a8a up his hair 6b3faa551a and gestured towards 87caf716ec the kitchen. His eyes, with only f9cfe04ce1 one eyelid doubled due de0892fde8 to fatigue, blinked pitifully. Liella quickly nodded, suddenly 201f29300b remembering that he had e0c87dfa53 been on guard all 0c1244c14a night.9d76728947debeb9

Dylan, who was getting up, tilted his head and pointed straight at her neck. Confused for a moment, Liella’s face turned pale as she realized what he was talking about. It wasn’t something on her neck. The mark on her neck was… In an instant, the memories of dawn flooded in like a dam bursting. The man’s firm back that had been pressed against her, and the stinging pain in her neck.f46bee6dbd227d66
While she 8f3b996ac2 was fumbling, e5c7859ef7 unable to e335b33502 think of e8455d66b0 an excuse, 25f65ef6fe Dylan narrowed 1c4e4b7915 his eyes aaa1de1240 and took 86b5e24ebe a step 122505c80f forward.4f261b842a82123a
