Chapter 52: Mission E (20)

I heard footsteps; immediately, the writings from the journal came to mind. Quickly drawing my sword, I went on guard.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became extremely cold; no breathing could be heard, as if the surroundings were engulfed in sepulchral silence. I felt uneasy; it was a very strange sensation, the first time this had happened to me.

I could still hear their footsteps, but suddenly, it stopped; through the same silence as before. Even the environment returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

"Elsa, did you feel it too, right?" I asked, not ceasing to activate my senses.

"Yes, it was terrifying, but it seems it's gone now," Elsa replied in a low voice.

"I think the same as you. That was strange. So, for now, we can't carry out the plan, as we only heard one step. It must be just one of the four."

"Leaving the house is the best option. Visibility outside is better than being trapped indoors," Elsa replied.
