At the very ht die, she twisted her foot sharply and kicked the ground If she acted like how she usually did, she would have aardless of what happened to Chi-Woo However, the situation was different this ti herself towards Chi-Woo so hard that her silver hair fluttered high in the air ‘Please…’ She couldn’t understand it well herself, but she fervently wanted and wished for Chi-Woo to not die

‘Please…! Quickly, more quickly!’ Hawa clenched her teeth She needed to reach him She needed to reach hi in her sight began to slon to the point that it felt frustrating—both the bullet and her e sensation surrounding her As soon as she realized so was off, she found herself awashed in pure white, and she regained control of her body Haas standing alone in a white space where everything was erased

—I could have for yet soft voice rang out

—But I didn’t like you

Then Hawa heard a rustling sound of footsteps
