The whelp looked like it was flying aimlessly.
Its wings were comprised of thin bone and membrane, and it flapped them to fly high up into the milky-white, rainbow-tinged sky. Then it would glide for a while. It seemed to be rather enjoying its travels. However, for those trying to follow it, the wasteful movements in its flight path were the source of a great deal of stress. Kaito’s displeasure was painted all across his face.
“Hey, does that thing even really know where it’s going?”
“Hmm… It does belong to the Butcher, after all.”
“And Mr. Butcher is awfully fond of playing around. I suppose we can only hope.”
Elisabeth’s shoulders slumped, and Hina smiled to try to placate her.
Continuing forward through the unchanging snowscape was hard on the legs, but it was harder on the spirit. However, it quickly became clear that, despite the whelp’s playful flight, their efforts hadn’t been wasted.
A living creature’s corpse had appeared before them in the empty world.
When Kaito first saw it, his immediate reaction was shock.
Whatever the something was, it was made up of fragments of ice and snow. Its body was unsettlingly linear, and if he had to compare it to something, it looked somewhat like a fish. But even upon getting a closer look, it was difficult for a human to truly understand its appearance. After all, their brains refused to parse some of the optical information on it. In fact, it was hard to say definitively if living creature was really the right descriptor for it. The only thing sure about it was that it possessed a concept of “death.”
All in total, there were four of the somethings. They were lying horizontally, their pyramid-shaped heads all caved in.
“…Hmm. This land seems free of foreign invaders, yet they appear to have been killed by something.”
Elisabeth stooped down and began inspecting the damaged sections. Kaito did the same. Once they did, a commonality emerged. All four of them seemed to have been struck by something soft. Also, there was blubber stuck to their wounds.
“With my cunning intellect, I’ve unraveled all the mysteries. The weapon…was a slab of meat!”
“I’d be surprised if it was anything else. In other words, that means the Butcher definitely passed this way.”
The two of them nodded to each other. This time, the whelp’s somersaults seemed to be saying, See?
Now trusting its guidance, the group resumed their pursuit of the Butcher. They carefully walked among the somethings’ corpses. As Kaito stood atop an unsullied patch of ice, though, a snapping sound rang out from around his feet.
“Huh?”
“Is something the matter, Sir Kaito? Hmm?”
Lute turned around as well, and his ears perked up. The two of them started inspecting the ground at their feet for presences. The moment they did, a square chunk of ice directly below Kaito cracked and burst up into the air. Slipping along its now-slanted surface, Kaito narrowly managed to land on his feet.
“…!”
“Ah!”
A massive slab of ice had pierced through the ground. Innumerable cracks were running along its surface.
The slab then split into fine vertical segments.
