I froze the moment I saw her.
Not because of the cold from the ice she created, but because of the rage boiling inside me, rising like a volcano finally cracking open.
Yukie Iceblood.
Just the sound of that name is enough to ignite hell in my chest.
Dark thoughts swarmed my mind. Should I take my revenge… right now? I could stop time. Beat her senseless. Drag her to some place no one would ever find. Tie her down with [Dragonroot Rope] until she couldn't even twitch a finger. And after that… the real revenge would begin.
My heart pounded out of rhythm. My breathing turned harsh.
But before I drowned myself in that violent fantasy… Yukie closed the car door without sparing even a glance in my direction.
And then… she left.
The tires screeched against cracked asphalt as the car pulled away, swallowed by the mist trailing behind it… disappearing at the corner of the street.
