This time, I was walking alone in the snow. I remember that it was when I was thirteen years old, in a very cold winter. Although the Zong family bought me, they did not sever my ties with my family.

“Are you saying a monster attacked him and that’s why he ended up like this?” When they brought Aquador to the infirmary, the jellyfish nurse lifted Aquador’s eyelids and shined a light into his pupils as he asked. “Yes. He passed out after being strangled.” “…Hmm. This isn’t fainting from asphyxiation.” “What?” “What did you say the monster looked like?” Yohan found the nurse’s question strange.
