"You're supposed to be a wise man! How could you say you don't know?" Hearing the old man's words, Modo laughed, yet although he was laughing, there were flames burning in his eyes.
"There are too many things I don't know, but now just one more has been added. I can't understand how humans can be so foolishly shortsighted to such an extent?"
The old man's helpless voice echoed within the pale white flames, everything that was happening now far exceeded his expectations, and he realized he had set his hopes too high for his own race.
Ah!!
A piercing and desperate scream suddenly rose in the silent night, and this abrupt cry immediately drew the attention of the hunters.
"What's going on?"
"There might be a monster that has appeared." Modo, vigilant and focused, heard more sounds; he heard the shouts of the commoners and their dying wails, and thus he changed his statement,
"No, a monster has already appeared."
