The Snow Leopard Baby of the Black Leopard Family

"…Really?"

Someone muttered, as if doubting their ears.

The fact that a divine revelation had come meant, just as Rowen had said, that Rowen was truly the Beastkin chosen by 'the god Ruuset.'

The High Priest was silent for a long time, then slowly opened his mouth.

"I'm not lying."

"…"

"Truly, the divine revelation has come. The god Ruuset has… said that through Rowen, the balance of this land will be restored."

Rowen looked down on the other Beastkin with a triumphant expression, while Ferdie and Ludian remained silent.

Karl, too, kept his mouth shut. Every time his eyes met Rowen's, he felt an inexplicable discomfort.

'What is this feeling?'

Looking into Rowen's eyes felt like falling into an endless pit.

The feeling of sinking into infinite darkness. The kind of darkness that felt like it would never let you out again...

Karl, thinking about this feeling, suddenly widened his eyes. His pupils shrank.

'The kind of darkness that feels like I would never get out...'

This was the same feeling he had experienced when Arcadia was once the "Land Without Morning," a cursed land with no sunlight.

But Karl couldn't understand why he felt this way every time he met Rowen's eyes.

Rowen wasn’t connected to that time, so why did it feel like this?
