Chapter 55:

* * *

Sshhhhh!

They didnt know what was going on, but they were certain they had angered the sleeping monster.

Juliet was barely clinging onto the side of a cliff.

As the serpent monster writhed, the terrain changed so much that it was hard to even call it a cliff anymore.

!

Quickly, come this way!

Magda urgently called out to Juliet.

The fortunate thing was that Magda and the children. Eshelrid had timely taken refuge in a crevice near the cliff.

Of course, its difficult to climb up with that snake holding on like that

If they could divert the snakes attention for a moment, they seemed to be able to climb up the cliff.

Juliet!

Hanging at the edge of the cliff, Juliet thought calmly.

Can I do it?

As she thought this, Juliets body moved on its own without her knowing.

Jul-

Eshels eyes widened.

With an unknowing look on her face, Juliet stepped onto the cliffs edge and stood up. The butterflies began to gather around her.

But the truly strange thing happened next.

Shhh

The writhing, angered snake suddenly became quiet.

An illusion?

Eshel instinctively realized what was going on.

Magda, take the children and quickly climb up!

* * *

Snap.

The connection broke and the moment consciousness returned to normal, Juliet felt a headache and swayed slightly on the spot.

Shh!

Unfortunately, at the same time the connection broke, the snake monster began to writhe in pain as well.

Juliet!

From above, Eshel reached out urgently.

But Juliet already knew that her hand was absurdly far away.

By the time Eshel called her name, Juliet was already losing her balance and falling below.

Ah, this is not good.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

Juliet regretted it, feeling faint.

She shouldnt have meddled in what wasnt her business.

She felt as if she were falling slowly.

Is this what a slow-motion fall feels like?

Juliet closed her eyes in resignation.

But there was no flash of past memories all at once.

During the slow fall, the only thing Juliet thought of was one thing.

If I die, will you cry for me?

Inappropriately enough, she couldnt think of anything but him. But Juliet knew the answer.

Dont act so cocky, Elsa.

The woman referred to as Elsa was a woman with a head full of voluminous, golden curls. She was an extraordinarily beautiful woman with long, slender limbs and height to match.

Its so boring. Nathan, this is why youre not popular.

Nathan, the man Elsa referred to, raised his eyebrow.

Nathan was a muscular man with short brown hair.

He gave off an ascetic vibe, like a monk. He was quite handsome when he was quiet, but the tattoo on his shoulder was striking.

Elsa grumbled, but she kept her eyes on Juliet.

With her arms crossed, Elsa squatted down next to Juliet and looked down at her.

It seemed as if she didnt cross her arms, she might have reached out to touch Juliet at any moment.

Wow.

However, not touching Juliet didnt mean Elsa wouldnt do anything strange.

Sniff sniff.

Really? You seem to have a nice smell.

Elsa was excited, her eyes sparkling.

Nathan, look at her! She smells like wild strawberries!

What smell?

Juliet, who knew she was covered in dirt and blood, doubted her own ears. She had no choice but to be flustered.

Theres no way, you idiot.

Nathan retorted, but Elsa still seemed pleased.

She kept hanging around Juliet, looking like a child with a new toy.

She wriggled around as if she were impatient to play with a puppy or kitten.

Her hands were busy folding and unfolding, as if she wanted to touch Juliet who was sitting still with all her strength drained from her body.

Hands off Juliet, Elsa.

His voice was icy.

Eek.

Unlike the arguing with Nathan earlier, Elsa hastily retreated from Juliet.

I really didnt do anything!

Get lost.

The person who spoke was a young man with silver-colored hair. After setting down his load, he retorted coldly.

Go and call the humans.

Nathan, who had been watching the man, quickly grabbed Elsas arm and dragged her away.

Lets go.

Hmph.

Even as Elsa was dragged away by her collar, she couldnt take her eyes off Juliet.

Juliet sat quietly in the middle of this scene, observing it all like a spectator.

Whether it was because she was intoxicated by the monsters poison, she was confused.

Are you okay?

After chasing the two away, the man sat down in front of Juliet and met her eyes cautiously.

His demeanor was entirely different from how he had dealt with the other two.

Silver-gray hair, pale skin, and clear golden eyes.

In her dazed state, Juliet thought.

So, this mans name is

.Romeo.

Romeo. Roy. He was the one who saved Juliet.
