Chapter 80: Dangerous Consequences

Harbinger's eyes widened, not from his words, but from the sensation creeping up her arm. The moment Elias touched her, a coldness began to spread from his fingertips.

It was a sensation that was far more terrifying than anything. It felt like her very existence was being unraveled, thread by thread.

She quickly released his throat and tried to move back, but Elias didn't release her hand. His grip was like that of a beast, with a strength that shouldn't have belonged to one person.

"The existence of a fable is very interesting. The longer you survive, the more dangerous you become. Someone like you shouldn't have been on the outskirts of this land. Were you waiting for the children?" Elias asked as he landed on the ground, still holding her wrist.

The void emanating from him grew stronger, consuming her arm at an alarming rate. Already, it had reached her elbow, turning her flesh dark.
