Nobody spoke after Naomi disappeared.
Not Shunya.
Not Vikoria.
The beach had become unnaturally quiet.
Only the ocean remained.
The waves still rose and fell against the shore as though nothing had happened.
As though a person had not just been erased from existence moments ago.
As though the world itself was not ending.
The place where Naomi had stood moments earlier was now empty.
Completely empty.
No trace remained.
No spiritual energy.
No body.
No soul.
Nothing.
The System had erased her existence with terrifying perfection.
Vikoria stared at the empty spot.
Her eyes were red.
Her fists clenched tightly.
Yet she said nothing.
What words could possibly exist for such a moment?
Shunya remained equally silent.
His gaze stayed fixed on the ocean.
On the place where Naomi had seen the sea for the first time.
The promise they made yesterday and a few minutes ago echoed inside his mind.
"If there's even the slightest chance..."
"Find me."
