The beast prayed. To the moon. To the stars. To God. And to the Devil.


「No matter how many decades... No matter how many centuries may pass... I don't care.」
「But once again... Just once is enough.」
「I pray for only one thing.」

「Please let me see her again.」


And one day, the beast's prayers were finally answered.

A little after seven hundered and seven years.
