Masaki, the summoned Hero

"Mae, we need to hide!" We returned to her, who was still looking over Kharric's body. She barely reacted to me when I called her. "Mae! Listen!"

"W.what?" She reacted and raised her gaze to look at me "W-what is happening?"

The sound of the carriage stopped, and they reached the middle of the village.

"No time to explain, hide!" I grabbed her arm and dragged her into a nearby house. She did complain but I was more hurried than worried about what she had to say.

Violet was waiting inside and looking through a window, crouching so she was hard to be seen.

"[Shadow walk]" I whispered and my body fused with the shadows on the house, Violet did the same.

"Not fair" whispered Mae when she saw us. She most likely didn't have the skill.

The divine energy that came from the carriage was intoxicating. I only could guess who was inside.
