Chapter 553: An Unknown Fear

Maria, who seemed to have been possessed by something, immediately froze her surrounding, freezing both Kuina and Eri in the process; then she looked in a certain direction; someone was hiding.

The white-haired Maria chuckled; everything time she breathed, the surrounding temperature would decrease, becoming colder and colder; it had become an ice hell already.

Meanwhile, Shadow, who jumped back when she felt the change happening around, had her palms dripping with cold sweat, and her back started to ache. Shadow got chills and goosebumps from every nook and cranny in her body.

The thing before her slowly raised her head; there was a smile on her face that increased Shadow's goosebumps to a dreadful level. Then the white-haired girl lifted her right arm. Shadow slowly observed this simplistic movement. She, who has faced many enemies, facing many death and life situations, was feeling an inexplicable fear that surpassed everything she had ever felt until now.
