Kara glanced up at him.
"Damn it!" Rein cursed angrily.
Kara withdrew her gaze, too lazy to ask how much longer it would be.
After a while, as the two were drowsy—
"Creak~~~"
In the silent late night, the door slowly opened amid a long noise.
"Get up!" Kara shouted, rising and drawing her steel sword.
The blankets on the bed flew up like parachutes, and the two sleeping on the bed quickly leapt to their feet.
The blanket on the floor was thrown aside, and two more people got up.
Six people, holding weapons, stared intently at the open door, their chests heaving violently.
The kerosene lamp's light was faint, unable to illuminate the space beyond the door. From inside the house looking out, it was like a solid wall of night, with unknown things ready to emerge at any moment.
The cold wind wailed, like vengeful spirits gathering outside the window, staring at them from behind.
"Sir! Shut the door!" The captain commanded in a low voice.
