I felt a chill down my spine.

Because what I sensed from that smiling man...

...was an aura so dark and turbulent, it was choking.

Yes.

As I mentioned this afternoon...

...it may be something I cultivated from hunting.

But this was the first time I'd sensed an aura so unpleasant.

Ah, yes.

I have a reward for you, since you've been trying so hard.
