"Ha... Heh..."
Ya gasped deeply, her vision blurry and indistinct.
Unable to breathe.
Unable to move.
Her eyes were coated with a film, veiling everything in front of her with a layer of grey fog.
She felt icy from blood loss but also felt hot needles chaotically stabbing inside her body due to the fierce heat. She lay on the cold floor, which seemed as scorching as a griddle, searing her flesh.
She could no longer feel her fish tail.
——But she could see it.
Her beautiful, pure white fish tail was within her field of vision.
Its cross-section appeared cooked, revealing the pale color of well-done meat. And at those charred, flaking scales, one could see how it had been severed.
She still remembered... it was a beam of light. An unforgettable light.
