"Don't come any closer!"
Her voice turned blade-sharp again as she kept retreating, trembling as she tried to get away.
"Get away! Go back to your own world! I don't need your sympathy, and don't you dare laugh at me! I told you to leave! Did you hear me?!"
She shrieked, her voice breaking with tears.
But Lynn's gaze remained resolute.
The enormous cyst was reflected in his eyes, which were perfectly calm.
No one knew what he was thinking.
He simply walked toward her, one step at a time.
"Go away!"
With that piercing scream-
Squelch-
A sharp protrusion of flesh suddenly lashed viciously at him amid her hysterical shriek.
His tiny body was instantly hurled dozens of meters away, tumbling before slamming into the ground.
But he got up.
Most of the flesh on his face had been torn away, exposing gruesome wounds deep enough to reveal bone.
But Lynn merely wiped his mouth hard and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva. With a steady gaze, he climbed to his feet and trudged toward her again without a word.
The enormous mass of flesh trembled.
At that moment-
She let out one long, agonized scream after another, as though she had gone mad.
"Go away!"
"Go away!"
"I told you to go away! Don't come any closer!"
"Did you hear me?!"
Sharp tendrils of flesh lashed down on him like whips from every direction in a hysterical frenzy, endlessly trying to stop him, to drive him back. Every savage strike left wounds deep enough to expose bone and sent him flying.
Yet every time, he simply picked himself up and kept moving toward her.
Even when his skin had been whipped to shreds and he was drenched in blood, his eyes remained just as calm, unchanged.
"Aaaaaah!"
