Somewhere around the kindergarten, a man panted as he walked out of the alley he was hiding.
From this place, one could clearly see the kindergarten clearly and almost everyone who would be present on the ground as well.
"Haahh haah, what kind of feeling was that, I felt as if a hungry beast was staring at me wanting to kill me any moment."
A man who looked like he was about 30 years old panted while taking a look at the ground.
A few moments ago he had been doing what he was sent here for.
"Finding one with the unique body of the Ice Saintess."
He had been following the directions given by the talisman in order to find the person with such a body.
He was told that this was a very important task and this would help change the fate of their school.
Before coming here, the school had not backed away from giving him some of the rarely used treasures that belonged to his school for ages.
All which he could only dream of seeing with his own eyes, and a few of such treasures he thought were too powerful to be given to him were now in his hand as he was asked to bring the person back to the school.
He didn't know what was the real reason why they needed this person with a special body and nor had he been told what kind of use their school would have for this person.
But when he came here, he noticed that the direction talisman had started to act weirdly and didn't show directions at certain times.
It was as if the talisman was sensing some kind of disturbances making it not able to precisely point the direction.
But that only happened at times when like 9 then after 3 or so.
During that time, he would not be able to get the correct directions from the talisman.
In fact, when he came to this city, the first day the talisman seemed to be working well and it was just for one day, after Wednesday, there seemed to be some kind of disturbances as the talisman was not able to show the appropriate direction.
The only place where he was able to find that this talisman was directing him was this kindergarten.
But on Friday, this talisman shows the direction towards the other school not much further away from this kindergarten either.
He just could not wrap his head around wondering if there were two kids with the same special body that his teachers had ordered him to find.
But later when he went near the kindergarten during the time the children were to be released, the talisman didn't show any movement as if the special body was not there.
This made him confirm that the child with the special body was in the other school not far away from this kindergarten.
But today, the talisman once again reacted, but when he came closer to the kindergarten, it once again started to react as if it had turned mad.
But this caused him to think of another possibility.
What if the child with a special body came here for a while and then went to the other school?
This was the only thought that came to his mind.
And that was when he saw the mind-boggling scene happen in the sky.
He was awestruck by what he had seen and could not even believe if it was true or not.
It was not long before he felt something fall on his head that he knew that it was real and the birds had indeed covered the whole sky.
And the thing that made him believe that this was real was the bird's poop which one of them did while they were going back.
He was truly disgusted by this, but he could not help but want to take a look at the person who seemed to have been the centre of this phenomenon.
A young man who looked quite younger than him.
He knew it because he had seen the young man standing in between as the children surrounded him as if he was going to do some kind of show.
But after looking at the young man closely with his binoculars, his eyes widened.
The reason was that he had seen this young man a few times and all those times when the direction talisman reacted weirdly were also the times when this young man was close.
Of course, it was not that he had seen him always, because the house this young man stayed in also was close to the place where the talisman acted weirdly.
It was as if the talisman could give a general direction that he would be able to follow if he was far away but when he wanted to pinpoint the person among the crowd, it would not work.
But that was not something that he thought was true.
It was because the schoolmaster had said that the talisman would help him precisely direct towards the person with the special body.
And he didn't dare think that what his schoolmaster had said was false.
The serious look on his face along with the expression which said that he was willing to pay any price for obtaining the person with the special body was enough to make him know that the schoolmaster would not lie or hide anything related to the talisman.
But as he looked at the young man, the guy suddenly turned around as if he had sensed him staring at him.
And it was also in that instant that he felt as if a cold pair of eyes were staring at him as if the next moment he would lose his life making his blood to turn cold while sweat beads started to appear on his forehead.
He quickly jumped down the alley afraid that someone knew of his resistance and that person was much more powerful than him to win against.
Just the dread he felt a few moments ago was enough to make him know that he was nothing but a fish on a chopping board for the entity.
