"Halloween?"
Upon hearing this voice, confusion rose in Shia's mind more than surprise.
Halloween was a festival in the Night Country. Legend had it that on that day, the living and the dead would converge, and people would have the opportunity to see the departed. Of course, the dead could not be resurrected, and even among the mages of the Night Country, no one could refute this iron law.
The festival had quickly evolved into a day of family gatherings, where people would carve pumpkins into lanterns and hang them at their doors to welcome the spirits of family members, and pumpkins had become the symbol of Halloween.
Why would the Queen Bug know about Halloween?
Was it because of the pumpkin earlier?
However, there was no time left for Shia to dwell on her confusion as she heard another voice.
"Halloween."
This voice came from a bug near the entrance hall.
That ugly, fierce, terrifying bug was actually uttering vague, human-like speech.
"Halloween."
