Vol 2 Chapter 19 (2/2)
This ti river
Glug glug, glug glug
I hadn’t been able to stop fro on a e poured into my mouth
I did not dare to step in the h the water
Floating on top of the water, the freshwater agitatedbreaths; rey
I saw lightning explode overhead, and I used all th to swim forward
Coughing nonstop, my sense were filled with a putrid odor
A helpless ghost like thing dithered back in forth in my brain
Every tih the water withrush of water It was like wanting to grab onto an invisible rope as I violently pulled h
When I finallyed to climb onto the shore, my body felt as if it were filled with lead
I wrung my clothes dry until no more moisture was squeezed out
I took a deep breath and coughed out all the water and my stomach twitched
Maybe Ailee’s speech had started
Ailee as she sobbed, Ailee as tears rolled down her face
Wuaaaaaa!!!
I used my hands to prop myself up on my knee and maintained consciousness
I could sense that ic
I was overfloith ic
But I had no way of using super speed
Right noas on the outskirts of the forest Beforeon it
Even if I wanted force ain, and then there would be a time where I couldn’t remain conscious
Far away, I could already see the city Ailee was officially touring
I dashed forward on the ground, without using any then ain, I slipped and rolled, then got up
My body was covered in a layer of mud
When the inside layer of mud had already dried from heat, I would be covered by a new layer of mud
My scrapes stung from the cover of filthy dirt
I didn’t knohether or not it was inflamed, but I felt that my entire arm ollen
“Ailee aaaaaahhhhh”
I screamed Ailee’s name
That waselse besdies her
If you say that all that happens in life has a purpose, thenconsciousness was to find her
AileeAileeAilee!!
Even if I don’t have the qualifications to say your na for your forgiveness, I want to find you
I’ you, world Just let me see her
I fell to the ground, getting a mouthful of muddy water
Was fragrance of the first spring grass and soil?
Pui pui pui [1]
I lowered my head and rushed forward I would then raise up ain
Finally, I arrived at the edge of the city I put on my hood and the water that had collected inside soaked my head
“Halt, what–”
A hindrance
I pushed off on the tip of my toes and jumped over the city wall It was only twenty to thirty meters tall
With the guard’s surprised yells behind me, I entered the city
I flew through the streets
Streets without a soul in sight
I had to find the crowd
Speeding by one street after another, cla over one house after another
I finally saw a dense crowd that stood ear to ear with their umbrellas open
Despite not being able to see, I still knew that Ailee was at the front of this crowd
I desperately tried tosqueeze through from the back
“Hold on, you!”
“What are you doing, your entire body is soaking wet”
“That’s right!! So dirty!!”
“What are you doing!!”
“If you wanted to see so badly, you should’ve come earlier idiot!!”
Finally, I pushed through the crowd
An unknown nu kicked countless times, I finally made it to the very front
“Now that the tour has ended, could everyone present be on their way—”
Said the old and grey butler standing in the shed
I looked around, but I couldn’t see Ailee anywhere
