Ashes Of Deep Sea

Chapter 812: Chapter 809: Ashes with the Wind.

In the desolate, abandoned city, Fenna proceeded with caution, her invisible companion walking alongside her, happily introducing her to this bustling, lively, and wonderful place.

This city was the most prosperous in the entire “continent,” known to almost everyone, and where most people lived or at least passed through their travels. The city guards here were dutiful, the residents were friendly and generous, and it gathered all the fresh and interesting goods from around the world, along with every new and exciting idea and story.

“Everyone loves it here, and you will too,” the cheerful voice said beside Fenna, “Just stay a few days, and you’ll see what draws people to it!”

Fenna listened half-heartedly to the enthusiastic guide beside her, while her mind spun with some slightly strange but very real… thoughts.

She pondered, she couldn’t see the “people” in this city, but occasionally she could hear the voices of others nearby. So, to the residents here (who might indeed exist), was she like a blind person carrying a big sword? Such a dangerous armed person walking with eyes closed, swaggering about the streets… Had those invisible residents really shown no reaction?

She also thought about the chatty guide beside her—a young girl, judging by her voice. Since Fenna couldn’t see or even touch her, it was naturally hard to “tour” the place based on the guide’s directions. So, Fenna had been exploring through the ruins on her own accord, mostly ignoring whether her “fellow traveler” was following her, or whether she could keep up. But “Miss Guide” seemed to find nothing odd about this at all.

She just naturally stayed by Fenna’s side, her voice maintaining a steady distance whether Fenna suddenly walked in a different direction, smoothly conversing with her as if this was the visiting route she had planned for a “new friend.”

Fenna stopped near a crossroads, silently organizing her thoughts.

What kind of existence was she, this “foreigner,” to the invisible inhabitants of this city and the unseen companion at her side?
