The first to arrive was Nick.
Without the slightest hesitation, he threw himself toward Silvanus and immediately hid behind him.
Nick's entire body was trembling slightly, but after confirming that he was safely sheltered behind Silvanus's tall figure, he couldn't help poking his head out to see whether that thing had arrived yet.
It was at that very moment that he instantly regretted his decision.
He should never have been curious. At the very least... he should have kept his eyes tightly shut from beginning to end!
Daisy had arrived.
She looked almost no different from the last time they had met. She was so tall that even with her back hunched over, she still brushed against the ceiling. The room immediately felt cramped with her presence.
From this angle, looking upward through the dense mass of hair that resembled a gigantic heap of moss, one could see her face, distorted by the maggots endlessly feasting upon it. Nothing had changed.
