It Seems Like It Can't Fly! (Double Chapter)

Darkrai: "..."

It turned its head away.

Xia Yan: "..."

He felt that if Darkrai could whistle, it would probably be showing off right about now.

If that mural hadn't suddenly started painting itself, Xia Yan might not have realized until he left that Darkrai had followed him into this Alternate Space.
