Chapter 366: Innocent Fun
> The elder smiled and sat down at the crowded dinner table where all of team Artorias rested, all but one short girl who was sitting firmly at the fireplace heating herself up, she and a peculiar, beaming ashen-purple haired child.
They had long eaten dinner already, and it was finally ti to discuss. Raveena, the rather gorgeous daughter of the elder had long left them in private, after they were done dining together of course.
They were all hesitant about eating the food, it was not that it looked like an inedible sludge, in fact, it looked very delectable. However, what worried them was the possibility of poison. But, after checking it over with the poison detector the school had given them, they found it to be more than edible.
Indeed, the food was in fact delicious.
Unlike the outside world, the house itself was rather warm. The construction did not look very insolating, which was a surprise yet not sothing completely unbelievable.
"Elder, I would like to thank you once again for your hospitality." Artorias lowered his head to the smiling elder.

"Bye ryl! Have fun honey bun!" Hikari waved her off as she saw her run out the door, closing it as she left.
"Elder, where is she going to play?" Hikari turned around and asked her first question ever since they arrived.

"Elder," Artorias once again spoke, not after taking a heavy breath, almost like it was out of frustration. "You claim that only the chosen few can be granted audience of this naless king. Our mission requires us to get to the top of this planet. Is there a way we could be granted an audience?"
"Act like a normal person! Or is this truly the work of heretics? Are you doing this willingly or are you under influence? Shall you need to be condemned or freed!?"
> He put on the worst fake frown conceivable, one twitchy and very unstable.
That was when suddenly, the front door to the house was sprung wide open, allowing the howling wind to enter. And, from the door entered ryl, one of her hands leaning back as though she was dragging sothing, sothing with a clear, distinct, foul stench.

> She nodded vigorously. >

> She chuckled at her grandpa's goofy face.

> Her smile grew larger as she looked back at what she had in hand, as she slowly dragged it in front of her bare, blue-stained feet.
And, as soon as what she had ca into full view, their dull eyes grew wide, and their pupils dilated to the size of pees, especially Hikari who could not help but watch in horror.
In her hand was sothing deford, a monstrosity fleeting on the precipice of beyond recognition.
It was a corpse… One of a child, dyed in blue from head to toe, blood dripping out of every pore. The body itself had various mbers missing… Missing with clear bite marks left on each missing limb, almost as if entire chunks were bitten off, leaving a mangled ss that showed visible bone. The face itself was not left out either… It lacked no eyes, ears, mouth, and barely any skin. It was almost as if that was the main course.
Yet, despite the clear, repugnant disfigurent, part of them knew exactly who it was, yet did not want to believe it… However, their suspicions were soon after confird by the small little girl herself.
