Chapter 79: Blood Stone

"Got him." Lilith opened her eyes. 

"Where is he?"

"In that direction. Right at the edge of the town." Lilith pointed toward the north. "We can't fly there, or we will have the risk of being caught. We'll have to walk."

"Isn't running better than walking? Just tell me when to stop, alright?"

"What are you saying?" Lilith asked in confusion, but instead of answering, Atlas picked Lilith up in his arms. 

"As I said before, we can't fly, so we should run. Just tell me when to stop when we're near him, so we aren't caught." Atlas started running North. 

As Atlas ran through the streets of the small town, he was like a ghost to the humans here who could barely see a blurry shadow fly past them. Most assumed that it was just their misconception and didn't take it seriously."

"I don't need to tell you to stop. Just keep running and stop when you see him," Lilith responded. 

"Won't he see us then?"
