Chapter 252: S1-203: Assurance

~Babil, 6115 a.d. Day 175~

Lily had been cowering in the back. She did nothing but watch as Latifa and Akuji fought to hold back the soldiers that had entered with the Grand Mage. Akuji was nimble, but his combat capabilities were not the best. Even Lily could see that he was beginning to tire, especially after how he had just carried her and run.

"Murderer."

She let out a soft squeak, turning her head to the side to see the lifeless face of a lady. She shut her eyes tight and covered her ears.

"I died because of you."

Lily couldn't help but open her eyes after hearing a familiar voice. She could see Verxy sitting in front of her. Verxy had lifeless eyes as she glared at Lily. "If you didn't beg to come to Babil, I wouldn't have died."

"You killed me."

"Murderer."

Lily clutched her scarf, unable to look away from the swirling darkness that was in front of her. There was nothing she could do.
