Chapter 35
Outside the portal, the streets were bustling with activity. Most hunters had returned from raids and reported back to their guilds.
Slowly and quietly, the light began to fade.
At first, no one paid it any mind. The sky dimmed a little, and people assumed it was about to rain. A few looked up, just to be sure, but paused when they noticed something strange. It wasn't rain.
The clouds weren't dark, they were pulling apart. That's when someone pointed. "Hey… what's that?" Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look up at the sky.
And that was when they all noticed something was wrong.The sun had dimmed and the moon was over it like an eclipse… but the thing that surprised people more was that the moon was blood red. A deep, eerie crimson that seemed to swallow the light around it.
"What the hell is that?"
"Is this supposed to happen?"
"I thought eclipses looked different, this looks…off"
"I got a bad feeling about this."
