장 402: Fear of Failure

"What?!"

The gasp was unanimous. Such a rebound could not be taken lightly. If this continued over time, the repercussions would not be limited to this Ordeal alone.

"Why didn't you say anything?" Enya questioned her with a hurt expression.

"I didn't want to worry you..." Her sister confessed sheepishly.

In response, Jake and the others drew a long, weary sigh. They couldn't really blame her, but it was clear that she was partially responsible for Will's condition. If she had spoken up a little earlier, they might have been able to act in time.

Though, the biggest culprit was Will himself. It would have been enough for him to tell them about it. Even without any solution, it would have at least warned the rest of the group.

After Jake reconfirmed that Will' condition was not worsening, he asked the younger sister a few more questions to clarify the facts. It turned out that this Skill's disappearance was not just a matter of missing words in her Oracle Status.

Sorry for the long hiatus. I'm back (for good). I had planned to come back about three weeks earlier, but I had to reread the whole last volume to get back into the swing of things. I had missed a lot of mistakes and some recent chapters were rushed. For those who noticed, most of the chapters from the last volume have now been edited. I also switched to another writing software and transferring all the content (outline, character sheets, etc...) took some time, but it should save me some in the future.

In any case, thanks to all of you who are still there and who had the patience and kindness to believe in me. You won't regret it.
