"Hmm?"
Bai Chen suddenly noticed a group of students gathering together and heading in the same direction. He recognized all of them—they were classmates and familiar faces he saw every day.
"What are they doing?"
Seeing each of them carrying flowers, Bai Chen grew curious and followed after them.
Elysia and Wendy exchanged glances, saw the same thought in each other's eyes, and followed along as well.
"Sniff... sniff..."
After following them, Bai Chen discovered that they had arrived at a cemetery. They were placing flowers before a gravestone in grief, and some of the more emotional ones had even begun to cry.
"!!!"
Bai Chen's heart tightened at the sight. Had someone from their class died?!
He quickly looked around. Aside from Kiana and the others, no one was missing.
What was going on?! Had something happened to Kiana and the others?!
Growing even more anxious, he hurried forward and asked a girl who was laying down flowers, "Whose grave is this?"
"..."
The Valkyrie who had been about to answer suddenly choked on her words the instant she turned around. Her sorrowful expression became one of horror, and her eyes widened as though she had seen a ghost!
The previously tearful cemetery suddenly fell completely silent, so quiet it was almost frightening.
"What's wrong with you people? Why aren't you saying anything?!"
Worried about Kiana and the others, Bai Chen impatiently snapped at them before stepping around the person in front of him to look at the gravestone.
Upon seeing it, Bai Chen relaxed. It was his grave. That was fine—he had thought something had happened to Kiana and the others.
Wait! My gravestone?!
The glow of the sunset fell over the cemetery as a chilly evening breeze swept across everyone.
"Ghost!!"
