Yuriel thought that was the worst case he can encounter in that world. But he did not know that it was only the start. Another nightmare was waiting for him.
As he wander around the plaza, Yuriel could not remove the grim expression on his place. The plaza was almost empty. Most of the stores were abandoned and he could see a lot of trash everywhere. Although the snow was thick enough to turn the whole kingdom white, it couldn't still cover the stench and the dirty sight of trash everywhere.
As he took the alley he often uses as a shortcut to the Magic Tower, Yuriel suddenly stopped on his track upon seeing a person lying in the corner. The young wizard felt like his feet were glued where he was standing. Although he was wearing enough thick clothes on his body, Yuriel felt like his blood will freeze anytime soon. His hands were also shaking for various reasons.
