The night wind brushed against me as I stepped outside. I was only wearing my yutaka, but I had my Relics, this was a hot spring town, and security had been increased after the incident with the hot spring dragon. I figured I’d probably be fine.

A perfect sphere in the sky, I gazed up at the full moon as I stumbled along. Perhaps because of the geothermal energy, even the wind was fairly warm and felt pleasant as it blew against me. It was like I was in a dream. My Level 10 Sleepiness had receded during the pillow fight, but now it was coming back at me.

Which hot spring should I go to? It’s night, so maybe the place I went to earlier today? That’s where Arnold’s staying, but he probably won’t attack me. Not after we had our naked conversation.

I yawned as I strolled down the moonlit street. It wasn’t even midnight, but there were very few people out and about. The solitude was nice, but it felt like a waste for such a nice town. As I wobbled along, I reached the construction site we came across earlier in the day.

Illuminated by moonlight, there was something otherworldly about the hole in the ground. I hadn’t noticed it earlier, but there was a white mist rising from the hole. I had been told the construction was being put on hold, but maybe they had already hit hot water?

Then all of a sudden, during my aimless pondering, something extended up from the hole. I stopped dead in my tracks. I rubbed my eyes. It looked like a gray rope. Bathed in moonlight, it shone with a strange luster. I couldn’t tell how long it was.

What could it be?

Maybe it was because of my drowsiness, but it hardly felt real. I watched with an absent mind as something silently gripped the edge of the hole and pulled itself out. I had no trouble seeing it in the ample moonlight.

I wrinkled my brow. My brain failed to keep up with the developing situation. The thing that appeared from the hole—it was human. That is, if you could still call someone human if they had gray skin and their hair was long, gray, tipped black, and writhed like tentacles. But they had a very human-like silhouette. They were even wearing clothes, though they were just rags.

Could this be one of those golems Sitri was trying to sell? Was it modeled after Killiam? The skin’s the same color.

The mysterious creature pulled themself out of the hole and briefly looked up at the full moon before abruptly turning toward me. Their finely-shaped eyes widened. But I was just as surprised as they were.

The gray person slowly approached. They stepped under the barbed wire and stopped only a few inches away. They were considerably shorter than me. Their skin was smooth as porcelain and their features were attractive, but not quite human. The inexplicable life-form walked right up to me and looked at me with eyes like glass.
