Gustavo Flint still didn't know what kind of existence he was facing.
Even though Withered Rose was dressed like a noble, the constant superiority of the intellectuals in her environment made Gustavo Flint dismissive of the nobility.
This was the influence of experience: a lack of awe towards nobility naturally meant a lack of recognition, to the point where Gustavo Flint couldn't even identify the origin of the clothing Withered Rose wore.
If it had been Laine People, they would have turned tail and fled already.
This was the black rose and the emblem of the skeleton, the exclusive signs of the Undead Queen.
Therefore, by the time he felt an itch in his ear, it seemed already too late.
Gustavo Flint instinctively reached for his ear, only to pull off his entire right ear.
Gustavo Flint looked incredulously at the ear in his hand, covered in rot, as if it had been cut from a corpse that had been dead for several days.
